I just want to rob you of your luck
Chapter 297: Plundering the Luck of the Marquis's Mistress
"Madam Lin, the prince said he wanted to spend 1,000 taels of silver. I dare not make the decision on my own, so I had to come here to ask you."
Everyone in the mansion has been informed that Lin Jiuer will be the Marquis's second wife, and those who are sensible have naturally changed their address.
Lin Jiuer thought, this bastard prince couldn't stand the loneliness after just recovering from his injury? Most of the money in the mansion was spent by him.
However, you can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. If you want to find out his faults and drive him out of the mansion, you must let him go out and have fun.
"Butler Tian, notify the accountant to give him the silver and remember to ask him to sign in person."
After arranging all these, Lin Jiuer went out for a morning run to exercise.
At noon, Yu'er and A Kuan came back.
"Master, I have already given the portrait to Xu Dong. He said that he has been hanging around in the streets for many years and knew the prince before. He will definitely help you keep an eye on him."
Ah Kuan's expression was a little serious: "Master, I found a famous clinic in Kyoto. The doctor there carefully examined this can of tea. He said that the tea leaves inside had been soaked in a sterilizing drug. Master, you must not drink this tea."
Lin Jiuer's eyes turned cold. This Zhou was really courting death.
In this case, it is better to take advantage of the situation yourself.
Jiang Cheng did not come back at noon, so Lin Jiuer still cooked a few dishes herself. She ate some herself and left most of them for Jiang Cheng.
This way you can just heat it up in the afternoon and eat it ready.
She used 500 points to exchange for a blood pill in the mall. After taking this pill, the person will be weak and unconscious for a day, which looks like poisoning, but after a day the blood and qi will be better than before, and the person who takes it will have a better physique after the transformation.
This elixir is a very yang elixir and has a restraining effect on all very yin and very evil medicines.
When Jiang Cheng came back in the afternoon, he felt that the atmosphere in the mansion was not right.
He had a bad feeling and rushed directly to Haitang Courtyard. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw the court doctor walking out of the house.
His heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked, "What happened to Jiuer?"
The palace doctor has good medical skills and is also Jiang Cheng’s confidant.
He shook his head with a serious expression: "Madam Lin seems to be poisoned. This poison is very dangerous. I have already boiled the antidote and fed it to Madam. If she can survive tonight, she can still be saved. Otherwise, the Marquis must be prepared..."
Jiang Cheng didn't ask any more questions and walked in quickly.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw two little maids kneeling beside the bed, crying quietly.
He walked to the bed and saw Lin Jiuer lying there with a pale face. He raised his hand and touched her cheek, which was surprisingly cold like a dead person.
Jiang Cheng did not panic when facing an enemy army of 100,000, but he was panicking at this moment.
He didn't dare to imagine how boring his life would be if Lin Jiuer died, nor did he dare to imagine how he would face the thundering wrath of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion if Lin Jiuer left.
He felt waves of pain in his heart.
"Jiu'er, wake up, you can't leave me. I haven't even married you in a grand ceremony yet, how can you leave me? Didn't you say you wanted to grow old with me? How can you bear to leave me like this?
You are the daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, a noble lady. You still have a great life to enjoy. How can you leave so early?
I won't let you die, wake up! Jiuer! He Wanqing! Wake up!"
Jiang Cheng couldn't bear the blow and shook Lin Jiuer's body, but she still showed no signs of waking up, and her breathing was so shallow that she could hardly feel it.
At this time, a choked voice was heard: "My Lord, the master is such a good person, who poisoned her? I beg you to avenge the master and catch the person who poisoned her!"
Jiang Cheng paused, turned around, and saw Yu'er looking at him with tears on her face. Qiao'er also cried and echoed: "Please, Lord Marquis, avenge our master!"
He felt a pain in his heart, and gradually calmed down, with a cold chill emanating from his whole body.
How could he lose his composure? The most important thing now is to catch the murderer. He must give Jiuer an explanation.
The person behind this deserves to die.
"Gu Feng and Gu Lei, bring your people to investigate right now! I want to see who dared to poison Jiu'er!"
"Aren't you two the ones who serve Jiu'er personally? Has she come into contact with any outsiders or eaten anything today?"
Yu'er hesitated for a moment and said, "The master had all the food he ate today in our Haitang Courtyard. However, the master suddenly fainted after drinking a cup of tea in the afternoon."
Qiao Er added: "That tea was the tribute tea given by the Madam. The master brewed the tea in advance and drank a cup first, and then..."
Jiang Cheng picked up the can of tea and went straight to the court doctor.
His heart sank gradually, hoping that it was not what he guessed. Although he did not like Zhou, she was the wife chosen for him by his parents after all.
She had lived with him for more than 20 years and had given birth to children for him. Even if she had no merits, she had worked hard. He did not want to do anything cruel to Zhou unless it was absolutely necessary.
The court doctor checked the tea leaves and finally sighed and said, "So that's it. The tea leaves were soaked with a sterilizing drug. This drug is cold and very toxic. I also found two drugs in Madam Lin's body. One drug counteracts this drug, which seems to be a medicine for regulating the body. The other is also highly toxic, so Madam is in a coma."
Jiang Cheng looked at the court doctor in shock. There were actually three kinds of drugs in Lin Jiuer's body, two of which were poisons. Who was so cruel to give Jiuer so many poisons?
He asked in despair: "Is Jiuer's life in danger?"
The court physician was an experienced old doctor. He stroked his beard.
"The two drugs are mutually exclusive, and they have offset each other's medicinal properties. There should be no problem. As for the other poison, I have prepared an antidote for Madam to take.
We don’t know the effect yet, we can only pray that Madam Lin can survive tonight, then she should be fine.”
Jiang Cheng walked out somewhat dejectedly. He felt that Jiuer was probably in danger.
At this time, Gu Feng hurried over and said, "My Lord, I have found that there are two servants in Madam Zhou's courtyard who are suspicious. One of them went out of the house to buy infertility medicine, and the other went out of the house yesterday and delivered some vegetables to Haitang Courtyard today."
Jiang Cheng was so angry that his whole body was shaking. It was indeed related to Zhou. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Where are those two servants?"
"Gu Lei and his men have taken him under control. He has been locked up in the firewood room of Haitang Courtyard. But Madam Zhou is causing trouble in Haitang Courtyard now. She is very unhappy that we have arrested someone from her courtyard."
"Let's go. I'll interrogate these two people myself."
When Jiang Cheng arrived at Haitang Courtyard, he saw Zhou standing in the middle of the yard cursing.
"Lin Jiuer, you little bitch, don't go too far! Why do you arrest people from my courtyard? You haven't even had your wedding yet, you're just a concubine, and you dare to ride on my head?
Even if you become my second wife, you are still inferior to me. How dare you treat me like this? When the Marquis comes back, I will definitely sue you. Even the Marquis will not tolerate you bullying the mistress! "
"Ms. Zhou, don't you know what you have done? I ordered the arrest of the person. Jiuer drank the tea you sent and is now poisoned and unconscious. How dare you come here to cause trouble?"
Zhou was shocked and said in panic: "Impossible, how could he be poisoned? That's just..." a sterilizing drug!
