Chapter 252 It's better for Xie Shizi to go out as a foreigner(1/2)
Chapter 252: Prince Xie is a foreigner, so it’s better to go out
Xiyuan East Courtyard.
The wind blew by, making the ground feel desolate.
The servants who served him looked anxious.
Shen Hua has been sleeping for three full days since she went up to the roof to admire the moon. Everyone is in a hurry.
Cui Yun took leave at Dali Temple and stayed in the house, his face getting darker and darker.
Frustrated and frantic, Ni Kang looked through the medical books.
But in reality, I had more ambition than strength, so I could only try my best to prescribe warm and tonic prescriptions, boil all the precious herbs and feed them.
Xie Xun didn't know where he got the letter, so he rushed over quickly. He had been to Xiyuan several times, and he knew the way and didn't need anyone to guide him.
He didn't care about anyone else and rushed straight into the inner room.
When Cui Yun heard the movement, there was no emotion in his eyes, and he wiped Shen Hua's hands carefully.
If the girl's complexion wasn't so bad, anyone who saw her would just think that she was simply asleep.
The atmosphere in the room was stagnant, the silver bone charcoal was burning, and a wave of heat rushed towards his face, but Xie Xun's hair stood up inexplicably, feeling panic and suffocation.
I felt this way twice in total, and the last time was still...
He didn't dare to think about it again.
But the girl's charming voice seemed to ring in my ears.
——Brother, accept your fate. You are just a biological sister. I advise you to give in to me.
She is also confident and confident.
——I’ve grown so smart that no one can take advantage of me. Those little girls don’t have this ability either.
And her helplessness.
——Yang Yang... Can you be greedy and wish for a long life?
Cui Yun lowered his eyes and did not stop moving his hands. He was just mocking with unknown meaning.
"If Crown Prince Xie is really worried, why don't you go find him privately without seeing him?"
"That time at the restaurant, I remember Zeng Yang went to find Taoist Priest Sanqing?"
At that time, Xie Xun deserved well.
But what about turning around?
He never sent out a single soldier.
Cui Yun pulled her lips lightly.
"It's also interesting. I just send you some small things every day. Do you dare to ask Prince Xie if he is really interested in Mrs. Shen?"
"This is my wife's inner chamber, and Prince Xie is my outsider, so it's better to go out."
Foreign man?
What can Xie Xun say?
He could never tell an outsider who was finally honest that sending Shen Hua to Cui Yun was what Taoist Priest Sanqing had told him many years ago.
Xie Xun didn't dare to step forward. He didn't even dare to get closer to see Shen Hua. Seeing Cui Yun acting like an elder brother, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.
That's his sister!
He clenched his fists and rushed out of the door.
"How is she?"
The person who asked was naturally Ni Kang.
Ni Kang gritted his teeth and did not dare to tell her face to face. Shen Hua was afraid that it would not work out. It was time to prepare for the funeral.
He thought to himself and said: "Ms. Shen's pulse is a false pulse, and something was wrong from the beginning."
There are too many causes of false pulse.
But these days, Shen Hua's body was taken care of by his own hands. The food that went into his mouth and the daily medicinal diet were all decided by him.
Even if Shen Hua sometimes gets greedy and runs out of the house to have a meal, she tells him what should be eaten and what should not be eaten, so she also talks to him in advance.
"After several months, the pulse condition remains unchanged."
Of course, if it's not poisoning, then it's something strange.
Is there a problem with the food that has been taken into the mouth for a long time? Or is it caused by hallucinogenic substances?
This is unclear.
Having said this, what else does Xie Xun still don't understand? Shen Hua was plotted long ago when she was in the Shen Mansion.
The girl was born with a weak disease from her mother's womb. But before she was five years old, she was raised particularly carefully and provided with good tonics. Although she was not as healthy as other girls at that time, her symptoms were not severe.
Xie Xun pursed his lips.
Later, she suffered from several colds. The situation became extremely serious, and the girl became even weaker and had to take medicine every day.
Especially when I was nine years old. (Note: The timeline is exactly the year when Snow Ball appeared.)
The girl suddenly fainted while visiting the lake. She almost couldn't be saved. From then on, she suffered from a minor illness for three days and a major illness for five days. She gasped four times after walking three steps.
At that time, no one thought much about it. They just thought that her illness was serious and that it would be difficult to treat.
But right now...
How could Xie Xun not think deeply?
"But there's something wrong with the medicine you're taking?"
Ni Kang: "I have seen the previous prescription, and there is nothing wrong with it except that the medicine is a bit stronger."
Xie Xun let out a deep breath.
At this moment, Cui Yun walked out of the house.
"Yicui." He called.
"Has your daughter taken any unusual substances for a long time?"
Yicui said quickly: "No."
"When the master and his wife were still alive, they usually ate with the wife. When the queen's wife came in, she would always share the food with the maid. There was never any trouble."
Cui Yun narrowed his eyes.
"Clothes, long-term jewelry..."
Yi Cui tried hard to remember.
"In the past, all the ladies' clothes came from embroidery shops, and those embroiderers were all reliable. Styles change every year, and ladies only wear the latest ones."
Often, most of the clothes were given to the maidservants below without wearing them once.
"As for jewelry, the same is true."
"These are all taken care of by my slaves myself."
"My wife often buys and changes the decorations and ornaments in the house, except for a few items."
Yi Cui entered the house and quickly took out several boxes with the help of Ying Wu.
The contents inside were all gifts from Shen Wei, Shen Xue, and Shen Pheasant. Shen Hua preserved them very well.
Without Cui Yun's instructions, Ni Kang hurriedly stepped forward and identified each item one by one.
Finally, he shook his head heavily at everyone.
No problem.
Yicui said cautiously: "Before, Madam was the head of the house. Madam was the most intolerant of sand and the most nervous lady. She wished she could do everything herself. No one in the entire Shen Mansion dared to do anything secretly."
Ni Kang frowned.
"That's strange."
"Logically speaking, nothing is left behind."
Xie Xun seemed to have thought of this and suddenly raised his head.
"Where's the incense?"
These three words seemed to wake up Yicui.
She knows best that the lady only uses one kind of fragrance. That spice is the most scarce, and the subtle fragrance floats like the fragrance of plum blossoms in spring, and is the most penetrating to the bones.
If the lady likes it, even the dress should be smoked. It has been like this for many years and has never changed.
In my spare time, I even went out of my way to identify its ingredients, only to find out that there was a small amount of high-quality dipterocarp in it that was as valuable as gold.
As for the rest, I don't know anything about it.
To be continued...
