The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 283 Poisoning
Yuechan sat up from the soft couch, touched her growing belly, bowed her head and smiled slightly.

Huan'er opened the window neatly, tied the curtains with tasseled red strings and hung them aside to let fresh air into the room.

Yuechan sighed: "Huan'er, the weather is good today. It just rained. It must be very hot. There is no need to place the ice basin at noon. After all, that is not good for the body."

Huan'er responded, and kept it in her heart, smiled and went to help Yuechan up: "Wangfei wants to go out for a walk?"

Yuechan nodded: "It's time to go out for a walk, our mansion was so lively before, Concubine Feng and Qingning came all day long, now they are both pregnant, so they can't go out easily, and I can't go out either. Being bored all day is also very uncomfortable.”

"You, it's just uncomfortable right now. After Xiaoshizi is born, you can go wherever you like. Now for your own body, for the sake of Xiaoshizi, it's better not to go out."

Huan'er persuaded Yuechan with a smile while helping Yuechan go out.

Yuechan laughed and flicked Huan'er's head: "I don't know better than you, but I just complained casually, but I got so many words from you."

As they were talking, the master and the servant had already arrived in the back garden. Seeing the green lotus leaves on the pond, and seeing that many flowers around them had bloomed, it was already summer before they knew it.

Yuechan wandered around the back garden for a while, called a few little maids, cut some flowers with scissors, tied them into bunches, and asked the maids to send them back to her room, and let the green clothes take them. The bottle holds these flowers well.

After finishing the order, she walked for a while, and then sat down by the pond, watching the koi swimming in the pond, when she saw Huang Ying rushing over.

"Princess, a letter has just arrived from the young master."

While talking, Huang Ying handed over a wax letter.

Yuechan took it, took the knife that Huang Ying handed over, scraped off the wax, opened the envelope, took out the letter paper inside, and looked at it carefully.

It turned out that Meng Haoyu came to announce the good news. He only said that they arrived in Penglai. Meng Haoyu visited the locals and felt that the water thieves were rampant. He swore that he would punish the water thieves. He also recruited brave young men from among the local people to serve as sailors, and trained sailors extensively in order to restore a peaceful environment in the local area in the future.

The navy has been training for a period of time, and then they are going to conduct a drill. It happened that Meng Haoyu took the navy out to practice some time ago, and happened to encounter a wave of water thieves.

This is rare!

The previous prefects of Penglai were all timid and afraid of doing nothing, and there was no way to deal with water thieves if they were rampant. They could only be shrinking turtles and let the people suffer.

This time Meng Haoyu lit the fire as soon as he took office, and defeated one of the most powerful water thieves, which can be regarded as winning the hearts of the local people.

In addition, he encouraged commerce and farming. When he first took office, he personally went to the countryside to visit the local people and listen to their opinions. He actually managed the small Penglai Mansion quite well. After receiving the plaque and pennant, he even signed a joint letter to commend him.

It was Meng Haoyu's first time as a parent officer, and he had achieved such achievements. He was also very emotional for a while, so he sent this letter to Yuechan.

The letter was full of self-confidence, and Yuechan read it line by line with a smile on her face. She was also very happy to see that her brother's life was going well.

At the end of the letter it was mentioned that Meng Haoyu wanted to expand the size of the fleet, and after training the sailors, he would escort the local rich households out to sea, or build a wharf to go out to sea to earn silver taels. Let Yuechan tell Gao Zixuan a little bit about this matter. Feasible or not.

Yuechan also understood in her heart that it was so easy for Meng Haoyu to be released outside, so naturally he wanted to make some achievements outside. As the saying goes, relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on water to eat water, Penglai is next to the sea, so naturally he wanted to make his plans at sea.

If you can go to sea to do business, you won't get a small amount of money. Moreover, even if you don't do business, you can go to sea to do fishing and other jobs. If you sell seafood inland, the price is sky-high due to the scarcity. In this way, Meng Haoyu has been the magistrate for a few years, without worrying about being fat.

Naturally, he earned it all by himself, and he was not greedy for the people's favor. Even if someone wanted to say it, he couldn't pick anything out.

At the end, she wrote some words about her family, so that Yuechan would have more time to go home to see Meng Zhiwen, take care of her younger sister and so on. After seeing it, Yuechan smiled and folded the letter Finally put it back, and waved to Huang Ying: "Go and pick up some medicinal materials and novelty things and send them to the Meng Mansion, just say that I gave them to my father and sister Yuejuan."

Huang Ying agreed, but didn't mention it since she went to the warehouse to pick things up.

It only said that Yuechan held the letter tightly and smiled for a while, then handed the letter to Huan'er, sat for a while, then got up and went back to the house.

After a while, someone came to report that Gao Zixuan would not come back for lunch today, and asked Yuechan to remember to eat more. Yuechan responded one by one, and at noon, the girl came in with the food, and she ate a few mouthfuls and it was gone. She had no appetite, so she asked to remove the food, and she hurriedly rinsed her mouth before going to sleep for a while, when Huang Ying came in and whispered: "Princess, something is wrong..."

Yuechan was startled, and quickly sat up: "What's wrong?"

Huang Ying's voice was extremely low, as if she was afraid of being heard: "Princess, I took two women to Meng's house just now. As soon as I entered the door, I saw all the servants in the house looked sad. I was a little puzzled, but I didn't say much. Ask, after seeing Aunt Xin, I found out that something happened to Miss Yuejuan."

"Yuejuan?"

Yuechan was even more surprised and puzzled: "She is so young, she doesn't go out all day, what could happen?"

Huang Ying turned her head and looked around, Yuechan understood and waved her hand: "You guys go down."

For a while, all the maids and women in the room withdrew, leaving only Huan'er and Huang Ying in the room.

Huang Ying calmed down and said, "I don't know why, Miss Yuejuan woke up yesterday and felt unwell, just crying, as if she was possessed by a demon. The anxious Aunt Xin invited many doctors to come and see her, but none of them could see her." What happened, Taoist priests were invited to look at it, and they all said it was all right, Aunt Xin had no choice but to cry around Miss Yuejuan."

"Later, if you haven't seen it yet, you can take my name sticker and invite an imperial physician to take a look."

Yuechan looked concerned, Yuejuan was young, and Yuechan was not that old when she got married, but because of her young age, there was no conflict with Yuechan, and she was always very close to Yuechan, often following behind Yuechan Called big sister, like a little tail, Yuechan likes it very much, and now Yuechan is still very worried when she hears that Yuejuan is like this.

"Later!" Huang Ying said mysteriously: "It was Aunt Xin who invited a witch doctor to come over and see what happened, saying that Miss Yuejuan had been poisoned."

Poisoning?

Pearl's method is still very good, keeping the house tightly sealed, Yuejuan is her sweetheart, she has countless girls and women with her, she can't leave her for a while, how could she be poisoned?
Yuechan was even more puzzled, she only stared at Huang Ying fiercely.

Huang Ying was startled by Yuechan, and swallowed her saliva: "Aunt Xin almost cried to death at that time, no, she was clamoring for a famous doctor to detoxify."

Yuechan sat upright, with a serious face: "Didn't you ask what kind of poison Yuejuan has?"

"I asked, what is the poison of the seven flowers and seven insects?" Huang Ying replied neatly: "It seems that it is refined from seven kinds of flowers and seven kinds of insects. Saying that the poison can’t be cured, on the contrary it’s even more poisonous, Aunt Xin invited many doctors to come and see, not to mention the detoxification, but she doesn’t even know the poison, isn’t that, she’s worried.”

When Yuechan heard this, she also felt worried, and said after a long while: "Go and get my post, and ask someone to go to the imperial hospital to find a good imperial doctor to have a look, Yuejuan is young , if the poison cannot be detoxified for a long time, it may damage the body."

While talking, she sighed, wondering what the hell was going on, she just stopped, and something like this happened to Yuejuan again, God, it's really unsettling.

Thinking about it for a moment, Yuechan went out of her mind for a while, and when she came to her senses, she grabbed Huang Ying's hand fiercely: "Aunt Xin, did you check, who is responsible for Yuejuan, this person is really vicious, such a young child If you dare to use such a powerful poison, if, if you are not on guard, maybe you will use it on the master and the aunts."

When Huang Ying heard it, she also saw sweat on her forehead: "What can I do, it seems that Aunt Xin is taking care of Yuejuan, so she has no time to investigate the poisoner."

"Confused!" Yuechan said coldly, "Hurry up and get someone to tell her, just tell her to investigate the poisoner early, so as not to harm others."

After listening to Huang Ying's response, she went back and said in Yuechan's ear: "I've got someone to talk about it, and Aunt Xin also investigated secretly, but after investigating many people, they don't seem to be the murderer."

Yuechan nodded: "Just check it out, tell her not to relax, and keep checking. I just don't believe it. There are only a few people in the Meng family. Could it be that they can't be found out?"

She was talking here, but she saw Gao Zixuan opened the curtain and entered the door. When she came in, she saw Yuechan was sitting there blankly, and hurried over and smiled, "What's the matter, and why are you worrying about it?"

Yuechan pointed to the stool next to her, asked Gao Zixuan to sit down, and then said: "I got a letter from my brother today, and I was happy to let someone go to Meng's house for a while, but in the end, I found out that sister Yuejuan was hit by a very powerful Toxic, no matter how many doctors I went to, I couldn’t solve it, and I am worried.”

After Gao Zixuan heard this, he also looked at it squarely, and took Yuechan's hand: "Don't worry, tell me what kind of poison you got, and I'll have someone investigate it, but I don't believe I can't find an antidote."

Knowing that Gao Zixuan has some skills, Yuechan was also relieved, told the reputation and harm of the poison, and pushed Gao Zixuan: "You just investigate secretly, don't make a big fuss, don't alarm the poisoner. "

"I'll save it!" Gao Zixuan lightly pressed Xia Yuechan's hand to reassure her.

At this time, a few maids came in with food, set up bowls and chopsticks on the round table, and invited Yuechan and Gao Zixuan to eat.

The two sat opposite each other, Yuechan took a bowl of porridge and just touched her lips, she felt a strange smell, at first she thought it was because of her pregnancy, it was because of the tasteless taste in her mouth, but after looking at the color of the dish, she felt that it was extraordinarily gorgeous , it seems that the cooks in the kitchen are not so capable, they can't fry such bright dishes.

Thinking about it this way, she felt that the porridge didn't taste like it.

Seeing that Gao Zixuan was about to eat the porridge, Yuechan got anxious and slapped her hand, knocking the bowl away from Gao Zixuan's hand.
