I kicked out my vicious husband and married his great-uncle

Chapter 45 Mother, is it really Madam Cui who wants to harm me?

When Madam Xie was pushed over in a wheelchair, the court doctor had already arrived.

Seeing her coming, Cui Shuyan seemed to have found her backbone and immediately went to greet her. As soon as she opened her mouth, there were tears in her voice: "Mother."

Madam Xie patted her hands and said, "Don't worry, let's see the situation first."

Cui Shuyan wiped her eyes with a handkerchief and looked at Qiaoya lying on the bed, worried: "Mother, you don't know that Biyu hurt her face and it's inconvenient for her to serve me. Last time I went back, my father gave Qiaoya to me. Qiaoya is very smart and I use her very well. I don't know what happened. She fainted all of a sudden."

At this time, the court physician had finished the consultation. He quickly wrote the prescription and asked someone to boil the medicine.

Afterwards, the court doctor stepped forward and saluted Madam Xie and Cui Shuyan: "Madam, Madam, this girl has been poisoned."

Cui Shuyan was shocked: "How could it be?"

"From the pulse, it is true. I wonder what this maid has eaten?"

Cui Shuyan pinched her brows and said, "Qiaoya has only eaten a bowl of millet porridge since this morning."

"What about the millet porridge? Is there any left?"

"She finished the millet porridge, but the bowl is still there. Also, I saw Qiaoya fell down after she finished drinking, so I pressed the root of her tongue to induce vomiting for fear that she would choke. Look, the vomited millet porridge is still there."

The court doctor nodded, covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, and probed with a silver needle.

Afterwards, the tip of the silver needle turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The court doctor stood up and said sternly, "The poison is in this millet porridge. As for what kind of poison it is, I still need to consider it carefully."

Hearing this, Cui Shuyan's face turned pale. She knelt down in front of Madam Xie and cried, "Mother, who wants to harm me?"

Madam Xie helped Cui Shuyan up and asked with a frown, "It's obviously your maid who was poisoned. Why do you feel that someone wants to harm you?"

"Mother, you don't know. This bowl of millet porridge was originally mine. I didn't have a good appetite today, so I didn't finish it. Qiaoya didn't want to waste it, so she drank the rest..."

After saying this, Cui Shuyan burst into tears.

Madam Xie's expression suddenly changed. She had been in the rear house for many years, so naturally she knew some dirty tricks.

It seems that this poisoning was aimed at Cui Shuyan.

Madam Xie's expression changed immediately: "Come here, check who handled Madam Young Madam's breakfast this morning. Once you find out, bring the person here."

Nanny Rong, who was following Madam Xie, immediately responded and took people to investigate.

The clue was soon discovered.

The breakfast was brought from the big kitchen in the mansion, and the one who went to get the food was Cui Shuyan's maid who came with her as a dowry.

Nanny Rong was experienced and quickly brought the people who were going to get the food over, and Liu Xing was among them.

After being brought over, they knelt one by one in front of Cui Shuyan and Madam Xie.

Madam Xie's face was as gloomy as water. She asked, "Who among you has dirty hands and feet?"

The maids were silent, none of them dared to answer.

At this time, a maid under Rong Ma came over with a small porcelain bottle and said, "Madam, I found this."

Seeing this, Madam Xie covered her mouth and nose: "Take it to the court doctor to see if it is this."

The old woman left immediately, and when she came back she reported, "Madam, the palace doctor confirmed that the porcelain bottle contains the poison of the heart-breaking grass. After taking this poison, one will have unbearable abdominal pain, and the intestines will be broken inch by inch. This is the poison that the young lady's personal maid Qiaoya was poisoned by."

Madam Xie was immediately furious: "Where did you find this dirty thing?"

The old woman pointed at Liu Xing and said loudly, "It was found in the room of this maid named Liu Xing."

In an instant, Liu Xing was so frightened that her whole body was shaking.

Madam Xie glanced at her and asked coldly, "Why did you poison the young lady?"

"To answer Madam, I don't have any."

"No? Now that we have caught him red-handed, what else do you want to say?"

Liu Xing bit her lips tightly and refused to speak.

Madam Xie sneered, "You are such a stubborn girl. Madam Rong, pry her mouth open for me. One hour, is that enough?"

Nanny Rong rolled up her sleeves and stepped forward: "To answer Madam, it won't take an hour, a quarter of an hour will be enough."

After saying that, she grabbed Liu Xing by the back of her collar and dragged her away.

Along the way, Liu Xing cried for her parents, her voice was extremely shrill.

However, the sound soon disappeared.

At this time, Cui Shuyan said anxiously: "Mother, is there any misunderstanding? Liu Xing is my dowry maid."

Hearing this, Madam Xie's face darkened and she remained silent.

Not long after, Nanny Rong came back with Liu Xing.

Less than a quarter of an hour had passed, and Liu Xing's face had turned pale as if she had died once, and she looked completely lifeless.

Nanny Rong threw her in front of Madam Xie and said sternly, "Tell me what you just said now."

Liu Xing was shaking all over. "This medicine was given to me by Madam Cui from the Cui Mansion. She asked me to find a chance to poison the young lady. But I..."

Cui Shuyan opened her eyes wide: "You are talking nonsense! This, this is impossible!"

After saying that, Cui Shuyan turned to look at Madam Xie and said sadly, "Mother, this is impossible, impossible..."

Cui Shuyan murmured, as if she had lost her soul.

Mrs. Xie was startled and wanted to pat Cui Shuyan on the shoulder to comfort her.

However, as soon as her hand touched Cui Shuyan's arm, Cui Shuyan jumped up like a frightened deer, and kept saying: "Don't hit me, I'm obedient, I'm obedient..."

Madam Xie took back her hand and looked at Liu Xing and the others coldly: "Come here, lock them up in the woodshed in the backyard! Find someone else to serve the young lady here."

Nanny Rong agreed and did it immediately.

At this time, someone came in and said, "Madam, Achang, who is beside the young master, came to ask why the young lady hasn't left for the Kong Mansion yet?"

After hearing this, Madam Xie couldn't help but feel a headache. Cui Shuyan was so frightened now, how could she go to the Confucius Mansion?

After sending Achang away, Madam Xie had to comfort Cui Shuyan.

Perhaps Madam Xie's words had an effect, Cui Shuyan suddenly burst into tears. After crying, her mood improved a lot. She grabbed Madam Xie's hand and asked, "Mother, is Madam Cui really going to harm me?"

Madam Xie's eyes flashed: "No. She is not that kind of person. There must be a misunderstanding in this matter."

"Yeah." Cui Shuyan nodded silently and said nothing more.

At this time, how could Madam Xie ask her to go to the Confucius Mansion?

I had to comfort Cui Shuyan, and by the time Cui Shuyan calmed down, it was almost noon.

Cui Shuyan seemed to have just remembered that she was going to the Confucius Mansion, and immediately looked panicked: "Oh, I was going to the Confucius Mansion today. It's already this late, what should I do?"

"We can only do it another day." Mrs. Xie said regretfully.

Cui Shuyan thought for a moment and said, "Yesterday I sent someone to deliver a letter to the Confucius Mansion, stating that I would come to ask for advice today. I can't go there now, so I have to send someone to the Confucius Mansion to pass on the message, so as not to lose courtesy. If I anger the great scholar Kong, it will be bad."

"Okay, we need to send someone there quickly."

When acting, you have to do the whole thing.

Cui Shuyan wrote a letter of apology and asked someone to take it to Kong Daru.

Not long after, the person who delivered the letter came back and brought back an unexpected person.
