Chapter 109: Millennium Ginseng
"Mrs. Chunxing is in her room, and Sister Chunxing has already invited the doctor to see her." The family member, newly recruited from Kuizhou, hurriedly saluted.
Gu Yuqi pushed him away, not caring about her appearance, she picked up the skirt and ran quickly towards Liang Huaiyu's room. People who met Gu Yuqi on the way avoided them one after another, leaving a passage for her to come out.
After rushing to the door of Liang Huaiyu's room, Gu Yuqi slowed down, she suppressed her chaotic mind, and walked in.
Qiuyue and Dongmei were waiting inside, Xia He was bringing a basin of **** water to the outside, Gu Yuqi looked at the basin of water that had been dyed red, and felt dizzy again, she never had a problem with blood dizziness. But he really can't see his mother's blood.
"How is my mother?" Gu Yuqi walked in, tried her best to keep her calm, and asked Qiuyue in a deep voice.
Qiuyue and Dongmei are simply cleaning up the wound for Liang Huaiyu. The faces of the two of them were pale. Seeing Gu Yuqi coming in, the two stood up and saluted, moving away from both sides.
Only then did Gu Yuqi see Liang Huaiyu who was placed on the bed. She should have hit something **** her head when she fell down, a **** cut on her forehead, how quickly the left side of her face was bruised, and there was a cut at the corner of her eye. Qiuyue and Dongmei have cleaned out the foreign body in the wound, but the wound is still oozing blood. Blood ran down her cheeks, staining half of her shirt. The skin on her body was exposed in some places where the clothes were scratched.
Liang Huaiyu lay motionless. Just like a rag doll, the blood on his face has disappeared, his eyes are tightly closed, and his lips are slightly white.
Gu Yuqi walked over, carefully sat down beside the bed, raised her hand to probe Liang Huaiyu's breath.
Her hands were trembling, she was afraid that she would not be able to feel her mother's breath, but fortunately, when she felt the faint breath brushing her fingers, the heart she had been holding was only slightly released.
"When will the doctor come?" Gu Yuqi tried her best to keep her calm, she looked up at Qiuyue and Dongmei.
"Chun Xing has gone and should be here soon." Qiuyue said softly.
"En." Gu Yuqi took the wet silk handkerchief from Qiuyue's hand and took over from Qiuyue to clean up Liang Huaiyu's wound little by little.
She tried her best to keep her peace of mind. "What the **** is going on?"
"Go back to Miss's words." Xia He returned after pouring the water. She went out with Liang Huaiyu. When she heard Gu Yuqi's question, she immediately said, "The madam's horse was frightened for some reason and ran forward, Hou, Hou The lord chased after him first, and we and the other guards followed behind. The lord tried to hold his wife's horse, but the horse he was riding lost its front hooves, and the lord fell off it. Madam's horse ran wildly, In the end, she tripped over a wooden stake in the woods. Madam rolled a long distance with her horse. The horse had already broken its neck and died on the spot, but Madam turned out to be like this. We dare not delay, we will soon Madam brought it back."
"The horse is frightened?" Gu Yuqi's eyes turned, "Did you bring back the horse's body?"
"With such a big incident, Chun Xing and the slaves have been scared to death. They just brought the lady back, but no one cares about the horse. It should be still in the woods now." Xia He said.
"You take Zhang Lan and call a few people to bring that horse back." Gu Yuqi's subordinates didn't stop, her mind was racing.
How can you be startled? Liang Huaiyu's riding skills are good, nothing to say. A few years ago, she was saving the British lady-in-law at the Winter Hunting Festival. Even if an ordinary horse was startled, she should be able to deal with it comfortably.
"Which horse in the house is Madam riding?" Gu Yuqi asked with a frown.
Back then, they bought horses as they walked along the way. They were all horses with good endurance, not those horses known for their speed.
"It was the mount brought by Lord Hou. It was originally mounted by Lord Hou, but Lord Hou said that Madam's horse looked too naive and did not match Madam's temperament, so he exchanged his horse for Madam, and he took a lead. A guard's horse." Xia Heben had already walked to the door, stopped and said after listening to Gu Yuqi's inquiry.
Gu Yuqi's hand trembled slightly, and then she suppressed her anger and said to Xia He, "Got it, you go."
"Yes." Xia He then walked out quickly, she walked in such a hurry that she almost collided with Chun Xing, who was approaching from the front.
"The doctor is here?" Xia He immediately asked when he saw that it was Chun Xing.
"En." Chun Xing pointed to a white-bearded old man who was following behind him, and without even bothering to tell Xia Heduo, he dragged the old doctor directly into the room.
"Miss." Seeing Gu Yuqi sitting in the room, Chun Xing looked ashamed, "The doctor is here."
"Doctor Lao is available." Gu Yuqi immediately got up and gave her place to the old man.
The old man didn't say anything long-winded in the past, first opened Liang Huaiyu's eyelids to take a look, and then sat down to take her pulse.
Gu Yuqi and the others in the room didn't even dare to breathe, and waited with bated breath, for fear that the loudness of their breathing would disturb the doctor's consultation.
After the old doctor took the pulse, he got up and said to Gu Yuqi, "Miss, the old man wants to see if the wife has any other injuries, so she may be abrupt."
"Doctor, just do it." Gu Yuqi said hurriedly. She knew that the doctor wanted to see if Liang Huaiyu had any other injuries.
The old doctor pleaded guilty again, and carefully touched Liang Huaiyu's neck. First, he touched the back of his cervical vertebra, and then he looked at the back of his head to see if there was any wound. He touched Liang Huaiyu's limbs, and then pressed on Liang Huaiyu's abdomen and Only then did he straighten his sternum with a dignified expression, turned around and threw his hands at Gu Yuqi.
"Miss, Madam fell hard. The main reason for her unconsciousness was that she hit her head. There are many bruises and abrasions on her body, which are not a big problem, but both of her legs have fractures to varying degrees. "The old doctor sighed softly after he finished speaking.
"Where's that person? Can you be rescued?" Before Gu Yuqi could speak, she heard a man's voice coming from the door.
The old doctor looked up, and saw two men dressed as guards who came in with the help of a tall man. He was pretty, and his clothes were covered with dust. His leg was probably injured. One leg was bent almost at the same time. He was standing on the other leg, and he was limping when he walked.
Gu Yuqi's heart suddenly froze, she looked coldly at the man who came in at the door, but she held back and did not speak.
"It's really hard to say." The old doctor's attitude was very sincere. He was interrupted by the man and continued to say to Gu Yuqi, "Mrs.'s fracture is not a serious problem, as long as she rests, she can recover, but she hit her head. I'm afraid..."
"Doctor." Gu Yuqi knows what the word "I'm afraid" means in the doctor's mouth now, "You just let go and treat, no matter what you want or how much you spend, I'm not afraid, as long as you can save people. "
"Alas." The old doctor naturally knew the mood of the patient's family now. He was very euphemistic. Liang Huaiyu's pupils did not respond to the light at all. Not only did she have a big hole on her forehead, she also had a lump on the back of her head. There is little hope of being rescued.
"The old man should do his best." The old doctor nodded, "Is there any thousand-year-old ginseng in the house? Slice it, put it under her tongue, and hang it for a while."
A thousand-year-old ginseng... Gu Yuqi first came to Kuizhou, where did she have that kind of thing at hand? She had received a hundred-year-old ginseng in Jiangxia, but it had already been sold.
"Where is it for sale?" Gu Yuqi asked hurriedly.
"I'm afraid there is no such good ginseng in this place in Kuizhou." The old doctor shook his head helplessly.
Gu Yuqi immediately sweated profusely. By the way, some officials from Kuizhou came outside.
She wanted to turn around and run out immediately, but when she saw Gu Huaizhong being supported and standing there, how dare she keep him here.
"Master Hou." Gu Yuqi walked in front of Gu Huaizhong and bowed, "I also asked Master Hou for help, and asked the Kuizhou official's house, which one's mansion has thousand-year-old ginseng? As long as you are willing to give up your love, how much money will you get? are willing to give.”
Gu Huaizhong felt unhappy when he heard that Gu Yuqi called him Hou Ye.
He deliberately put on a distressed look, "Nang, did you even refuse to recognize your father?"
"Marquis, now is not the time to talk about this. If Marquis doesn't go, the people will go by themselves." Gu Yuqi felt sad, it was already time, he didn't say to ask for help immediately, but he was still acting with her. Who to see?
"Okay, okay. Ben Hou will go ask now." Gu Huaizhong heard Gu Yuqi's displeasure, so he immediately changed his words.
He motioned for the guards to help him out again.
After leaving Liang Huaiyu's room, a wicked smile flashed across Gu Huaizhong's eyes.
fight him? Little girl, you are still tender.
Gu Yuqi's defense against him is the same as that of the iron barrel. Naturally, he can't do anything in the mansion, but he and Liang Huaiyu have been married for many years, so why doesn't he know Liang Huaiyu's temperament?
These days, he deliberately flattered him, and carefully pretended to care about Liang Huaiyu. What he saw was that Liang Huaiyu still had a little friendship for him.
Women, they all want to be coaxed. After coaxing and coaxing, Liang Huaiyu's vigilance towards him decreased.
As long as Liang Huaiyu is taken out of the house, once or twice, she will slowly paralyze her and the people who Gu Yuqi sent to guard him by her side.
When did he fail to accomplish what he wanted to achieve?
It's a pity that Liang Huaiyu was not thrown to death on the spot, and Gu Huaizhong repeatedly expressed regret in his heart.
Find a thousand-year-old ginseng for her? Don't dream, there are not many such rare things in the capital, how could there be such a thing in this small Kuizhou?
However, Gu Huaizhong went to the front hall pretending to be, and asked all the officials of Kuizhou.
He did a full set of acting, and in front of those officials, he was heartbroken and heartbroken, so he was sent to give up the honor of Hou Ye and knelt down to beg others.
The officials present shook their heads and regretted that there was really no such precious thing at home. Everyone was expressing their position. If there was, they would definitely take it out to save the life of the lady. This made Gu Huaizhong happy.
Many officials in Kuizhou were also moved when they saw Gu Huaizhong's "deep affection".
After the old man left Gu Huaizhong, he wrote down a recipe and handed it to Gu Yuqi, "Miss, I will fry two pieces according to the medicine in this recipe, and let my wife take it and see." The old doctor handed the recipe to Gu Yuqi. "Miss, the old man wants to set the wife's bones. If the young lady thinks it's not right, you can find a woman over here, and the old man will instruct her to do it."
"Sir, there's nothing wrong with it, it's important to save people." Gu Yuqi is naturally not that pedantic. She is not at ease under the guise of someone else's hand. She immediately said, "Please ask the old gentleman to come in person."
"Okay. Miss, so the old man is guilty." The old doctor bowed his hands and said.
He took a clean white cloth and a splint to straighten Liang Huaiyu's leg bones, and then straightened her ribs.
"Miss, Madam's fracture is very severe. I can't guarantee that Madam will return to her original state in the future." The old doctor said while wrapping the white cloth. The premise is that she can survive.
"Understood, doctor, do your best." Gu Yuqi tried her best to suppress the tears that would come out at any time, and said in a deep voice. "If there is no thousand-year-old ginseng, can it be replaced with a hundred-year-old ginseng?"
"The century-old old man has it there. If the young lady needs it, the old man is willing to take it out, but the effect of a thousand years is good." The old doctor said.
Of course Gu Yuqi knew that a thousand years was good, but without that, there was nothing she could do. "Also ask the old gentleman to give up his love." She didn't expect Gu Huaizhong to find her for her, but Gu Huaizhong was the one who most wanted Liang Huaiyu to die in this mansion.
It's better to top it first if there is a hundred years.
"Well. Miss will send someone to fetch it with the old man." The old doctor nodded and replied.
Gu Yuqi and other old doctors were all done, and sent him out in person.
At this time, Gu Huaizhong was still crying in the flower hall and among many officials in Kuizhou.
Gu Yuqi walked over coldly, not even wanting to give him another look.
If she finds out that her mother's sack is not an accident, she swears that she will never let this ruthless man go!
After Gu Yuqi sent the old doctor away, she immediately called Wang Yan over.
"I know that you will be in touch with His Royal Highness Prince An every day." Gu Yuqi said calmly.
Wang Yan didn't argue, just listened quietly.
"You immediately contact His Royal Highness Prince An as soon as possible, and ask him to get me a thousand-year-old wild ginseng and send it to Kuizhou. My mother is waiting for help. As for the price, he can choose whatever." Gu Yuqi said.
The thousand-year-old ginseng should be available in the royal family. She was forced to do nothing, so she could only ask Yun Ke for help.
If she could, she would rather never see him in her life.
"Yes." Wang Yan didn't say much, just answered and turned to leave.
Gu Yuqi then fell down on the chair as if she had lost all her strength. She covered her face with her hands, and her heart was confused and troubled. She took a deep breath and calmed down her chaotic mood. , then stood up and returned to Liang Huaiyu's side.
She and Qiuyue wiped Liang Huaiyu's entire body together, and then put on clean clothes for her. She sat quietly beside the bed and watched Liang Huaiyu froze slightly.
Qiuyue was with her, and she didn't dare to disturb Gu Yuqi.
The room fell into silence, as if time had frozen here.
"Miss." Chun Xing's voice broke the silence here, and Gu Yuqi suddenly came back to her senses and looked outside.
Chun Xing hurried in from the outside and knelt down in front of Gu Yuqi with a plop. Gu Yuqi was startled, "What are you doing?" She hurriedly went to help Chun Xing.
However, Chun Xing refused to get up.
"Miss, it's all the slave's fault." She had been holding back the tears in her eyes, she raised her eyes to look at Gu Yuqi, her eyes were red, "If it wasn't for the slave's carelessness, Madam might not have become like this. Yes. The slaves are entrusted by Miss. If there is something wrong with the lady, the slaves are willing to go with the lady."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Gu Yuqi was really angry now. She pulled Chun Xing up from the ground with force, and squeezed her arms tightly with both hands, "Don't talk nonsense in the future! Mother will be fine, she will wake up, and you are not allowed to save those messy thoughts. Even if the mother can't wake up again, you can't find fault! I'm not allowed!"
"Miss!" Chun Xing couldn't hold back her tears any longer, and she burst out from her eyes. With a wow, she burst into tears. "Miss, you just asked the servant to look for the body of the horse, but when the servant went, the guards of Lord Hou had already burned the body of the horse one step before the servant!"
"What?" Gu Yuqi lost her voice, and then immediately regained her calm.
She let go of the hand on Chun Xing's arm, walked slowly to Liang Huaiyu's side and sat down, "Where does Mother always keep valuable things?"
She asked after a little thought.
"In Madam's small study." Chun Xing was already sobbing, Qiuyue hugged her and said to Gu Yuqi.
"Take me there." Gu Yuqi took a deep breath and stood up again, holding on to the bed frame.
Why did Gu Huaizhong ask the guards to destroy the horse's body? He actually really hit his mother hard! Why? Before Gu Yuqi asked Chun Xing to guard against him, it was indeed because he was afraid that he might have bad thoughts. But this is her idea of preventing problems before they happen. In her heart, she didn't really realize that Gu Huaizhong would kill Liang Huaiyu! After all, in the last life, it was not Gu Huaizhong who killed Liang Huaiyu, but Liu Yue.
Why do you want to do such a bad thing to your ex-wife? If at the beginning, Ma's shock might just be an accident, if the thought of Gu Yuqi still existed, then now she really doesn't think there are such coincidences in the world.
She sent Chun Xing to retrieve the dead horse in order to verify whether it was an accident, but Gu Huaizhong actually sent guards to destroy the horse's body. ?
Why did Gu Huaizhong kill Liang Huaiyu? Even though Liang Huaiyu and He Li Shi slapped him in the face, they were all separated, a capital that is still far away, what's the big deal?
This is what Gu Yuqi was thinking about just now.
There is only one possibility, and that is that Liang Huaiyu has something in Gu Huai's hands that makes Gu Huai fearful. He is afraid that it will pass through her mother's hands, so he will try his best to kill his mother. So there will be dead men on the road to assassinate them! Gu Yuqi's mind was completely opened now, and her eyes suddenly opened up. She felt strange when the dead men appeared, their targets were clearly her and her mother. She asked herself and her mother that neither of them had offended anyone who was a big deal. Now she has it all figured out.
Gu Yuqi and Qiuyue walked into their mother's small bookstore together and searched the bookstore, but found nothing.
She sat slumped on the chair in the study, thinking hard, but she couldn't think of anything special.
Yun Ke received Wang Yan's letter in three days. When the dark guard came to report that there was an emergency letter from Kuizhou, he couldn't help but be shocked. The first reaction was that something had happened in Kuizhou, otherwise Wang Yan would not have used the channel of emergency letterhead to deliver the letter. This is the channel through which the dark guards transmit the most important information, and it is usually not used.
After Yun Ke read the letter, he couldn't sit still any longer. Douya died.
"Call Du Xia." Yun Ke said to the guards on duty.
After a while, Du Xia pushed the door open and knelt in front of Yun Ke.
"From now on, you pretend to be King Ben to go to Huzhou for inspection. Remember to immediately report illness when you arrive in Huzhou, and then go behind closed doors and see no one until Ben Wang returns to Huzhou." Yun Ke said.
"Yes." Du Xia glanced deeply at the urgent letterhead in Yun Ke's hand, and responded calmly.
"Don't show any clues." Yun Ke's eyes flashed and he said to Du Xia, "This king will send Li Meng to assist you in front of you."
"This subordinate understands." Du Xia's heart sank and replied.
Yun Ke became suspicious of him. The last time he went to Kuizhou to see Gu Yuqi, although the time for his return was not postponed, he could feel that Yun Ke seemed to have really noticed something. Du Xia silently sighed deeply in his heart. Just when Yun Ke ordered him to pretend to be himself, Du Xia had already guessed that Yun Ke was going to Kuizhou.
The letter was sent all the way from Kuizhou with the fastest speed. If there was no accident in Kuizhou, how could Wang Yan use this special way.
What happened to her?
After that night, Du Xia didn't know how he got back to the capital. He only knew that he slept for two days after returning to his life.
He was so tired, physically exhausted, and deeply hurt in his heart that he really wanted to sleep in such a quiet way.
When he woke up, he took out a hairpin that he kept in his arms. The first time he didn't have the guts to give it away, the second time he didn't have the chance to give it to her and was blown away .
He stared at the hairpin for a long time. He really wanted to destroy the hairpin. In fact, his hand had already bent the hairpin, but he was still reluctant. The sharp part of the bottom of the hairpin pierced through. The pain in his palm made him suddenly sober.
Yes, he was reluctant.
If she doesn't think he deserves to stand by her side, then he is willing to stand behind her.
He carefully straightened the hairpin again, and cherished it in his arms. He pressed his hand on his heart, where there was a small jade pendant, tightly clinging to his flesh.
