Chapter 1079: Ingestion of Poison
"I will listen to your orders, Princess. I will not appear in front of Miss Muxiang anymore."
Xichun's heart was filled with gratitude, and her feelings towards Muxiang became increasingly complicated.
Even though they have nothing to do with each other now, she still protects her, which makes her feel even more guilty.
Seeing her leaving in a state of despair, Qiu Niang couldn't help but say, "Princess, why do I feel like there's something going on in their family?"
"No matter what the secret is, since they abandoned Muxiang again after losing her, it is unforgivable."
This was Jiang Wan’s idea, and she believed Mu Xiang thought the same.
"What the princess said makes sense."
Qiu Niang boldly guessed, "Could it be that Xichun's parents couldn't bear to part with the child who wasn't their own?"
“That’s a possibility.”
Jiang Wan thought of the many novels about real and fake daughters that she had read in her previous life. In the end, those parents who were not able to tell the difference spoiled the fake daughters to the utmost.
Instead, he hurt his own daughter badly.
When she thought of this, Jiang Wan couldn't help but shiver. She regretted telling Mu Xiang the truth.
"If that's true, then they really don't deserve sympathy."
Qiu Niang curled her lips in anger, as they had followed Jiang Wan for such a long time.
They treated Muxiang as a little sister, and they naturally felt sorry for Muxiang when the little sister was bullied and looked down upon.
"Let's forget about this matter now. Don't mention it again in the future."
Jiang Wan waved her hand, not only them, but everyone else’s mouth was shut.
When Song Jiuyuan came back in the evening, she gave him instructions again and again.
"Don't mention this matter again."
"I will listen to you, madam. You can take some silver from the storehouse and give it to Muxiang later."
Song Jiuyuan was still very nice to Jiang Wan's apprentice, and Jiang Wan looked helpless.
"Why are you in such a hurry? How can I treat my apprentice badly?"
"I'm afraid you'll worry too much and hurt yourself."
Song Jiuyuan felt sorry for Jiang Wan's efforts. She always did her best and was considerate of everyone around her.
Sometimes the only person I don’t think about is myself.
"Don't worry, I won't treat myself badly."
Jiang Wan spoke softly to Song Jiuyuan about the restoration center, and the couple chatted until midnight.
It was not until Jiang Wan felt sleepy that Song Jiuyuan hugged Jiang Wan and fell asleep.
A few days later, Qiu Yan came back mysteriously, "Princess, I saw someone looking for Xichun.
Judging from their appearance, they might be Xichun’s parents.”
"What are they doing here?"
Jiang Wan frowned. Muxiang had already forgotten about that incident, and she didn't want them to disturb Muxiang.
"I don't know."
Qiu Yan shook her head, "But I observed carefully and found that they sat in the teahouse opposite for a whole day.
I didn’t leave the teahouse until I saw Miss Muxiang leaving the palace.”
"What kind of gourds are they selling?"
Jiang Wan thought about it and asked Xichun to come over and asked her directly, "Xichun, Qiu Yan seemed to have seen your parents just now."
"princess."
Xichun was extremely flustered, her palms were sweaty, "They just missed me a little.
So come and see me. I will talk to them tomorrow and they will leave on their own."
"I don't want them to appear in front of Muxiang."
Jiang Wan didn't even try to be tactful, her blunt words made Xichun's face turn slightly pale.
"Don't worry, Princess. I will keep an eye on them and make sure they don't disturb Miss Muxiang."
After hearing her words, Jiang Wan let her go. After a while, Qiu Yan came back to report.
"Maybe Xichun said something to them. They are already packing their luggage and should be leaving the city today."
"Just leave."
Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief, otherwise if Mu Xiang saw it, it would cause a lot of trouble.
"I really can't understand, if you care so much about Miss Muxiang, why would you give up on her?"
"The world is so big, there are always many weird people. If you can share their ideas, then you are the same kind of person."
Jiang Wan's calm words made Qiu Niang nod unconsciously, "What the princess said makes sense.
I will go check on Miss Muxiang now. It would be a good thing if she doesn't notice."
She walked very quickly, and Jiang Wan was worried that Mu Xiang would notice something, so she did not stop Qiu Niang.
The two babies on the bed were whimpering. Just when Jiang Wan and Yingyue were feeding the children, Qiu Niang hurried back.
"Princess, it's bad. Miss Muxiang was poisoned in the pharmacy."
"What?!!"
Jiang Wan was startled and ran outside with her shoes on. "The pharmacy is in the palace, how could she be poisoned?"
"It seems that Muxiang accidentally ingested the poison newly developed by Miss Ruoshui."
Qiu Niang was also very anxious, but she was quick enough to grab Jiang Wan who was about to run away.
"Princess, Master Gan Ze said they are bringing Miss Mu Xiang here, so don't worry."
"No, I have to go check it out."
Jiang Wan couldn't help it any longer. Just as she reached the door, she saw Gan Ze rushing in holding Muxiang, whose face was dark.
Ruoshui, who has always been unruly, was so anxious that she shed tears, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry."
"You're crazy, leaving everything in your house!"
Gan Ze was so angry that he couldn't help but blame Ruoshui, who was wiping her tears.
"How could I have known that she would accidentally eat the poison I developed.
I don't even have an antidote, the poison is quite strong."
"Don't worry, let me see."
Jiang Wan instructed Gan Ze to place Muxiang on the couch in the outer room, and her fingertips fell on Muxiang's pulse.
Ruoshui thoughtfully took out the prescription for her poison and said, "Master, I prepared it according to this prescription.
It's still in the experimental stage, and I don't know how toxic it is."
"Master, I..."
Muxiang's eyes were red, with dark circles under her eyes and bloodshot at the corners of her mouth.
"Don't talk."
Jiang Wan took out her silver needle bag and quickly gave Mu Xiang the needles.
She first controlled the circulation of the poison in Mu Xiang's body, and then slowly developed the antidote.
"Master, will Muxiang be in trouble?"
Gan Ze, who was usually calm and composed, panicked for a while and didn't even call Mu Xiang "Senior Sister".
He called her Muxiang affectionately. Muxiang wanted to retort him, but found that she didn't have the strength to reply.
"Don't worry, she'll be fine as long as I'm here."
Jiang Wan's acupuncture was amazing, and Ruoshui was stunned. This was the first time she saw Jiang Wan snatch someone from the hands of death.
Not only is her acupuncture skill great, but her movements are also precise. Even at such a critical moment, she is still very confident.
A quarter of an hour later, Muxiang's body was covered with silver needles and there was no more blood seeping from the corners of her mouth.
Even his dark face gradually turned redder.
"I feel much better."
Muxiang breathed a sigh of relief. She had felt so stuffy in her chest just now that she almost thought she was going to suffocate.
Fortunately, the master was very good and she felt much more comfortable all over.
"Just lie down first. I'll go develop an antidote."
Jiang Wan's forehead was covered with sweat due to her anxiety. She took Ruoshui's poison and looked at it carefully.
Just at this moment, Qiu Yan came in anxiously, "Princess, Xichun heard that Muxiang was poisoned, and she came with her parents."
