Doctor Wu shook his head, his expression helpless yet respectful as he said, "Madam is indeed poisoned. If we knew what kind of poison it was, perhaps there would be a way to cure it."
At this point, he looked at Li Sisi and asked, "I wonder if Madam has eaten anything by mistake recently? Or touched anything special?"
Li Sisi had already seen Wen Luoxin coming in with Madam Xiao, and hurriedly answered Doctor Wu's words loudly.
"Today, my eldest sister-in-law accepted the invitation of the second lady of the Wen family to go to Tianxiang Tower, and this happened after she came back."
Xiaohong knew that the Second Madam had not gone with them, so she was unaware of the situation at the time. She quickly added, "I heard the First Madam scream, and when she opened the door, she saw her fall to the ground, questioning why Second Miss Wen poisoned her. Second Miss Wen denied it and lied that she had been poisoned too."
"You are slandering me!"
When Wen Luoxin heard them twisting right and wrong like this, she lost her dignity and elegance and said calmly and firmly, "It was clearly the eldest lady who sent a servant from the Xiao Mansion to the Wen Mansion to tell me to go to Tianxiang Tower!"
Chun Cui, the maid from Shui Xie Ju, stepped forward and said firmly, "Second Miss Wen, we all saw the servants from your Wen Mansion come over!"
Li Nian supported herself on the bed with both hands and sat up with difficulty. She spoke weakly, "Don't say that. Maybe Second Miss Wen really just wanted to invite me to have tea. After all, she is the granddaughter of Master Wen. We have no evidence, so we can't jump to conclusions, lest we bring trouble to the family..."
"Cough cough cough" As she spoke, she coughed up another mouthful of blood.
Li Sisi hurriedly exclaimed, "Niannian!" She looked at Doctor Wu anxiously and said, "Doctor, please think of a solution!"
Li Nian hung his head, staring blankly at the blood on his palm. He seemed to be trembling with fear, and helplessly looked at Wen Luoxin and begged, "Everyone says that Miss Wen is a miracle doctor. There must be a way to save me, right?"
Suddenly, a black figure rushed into the room and sat beside Li Nian's bed in the blink of an eye.
The usually unruly man was now panicked and nervous, his low voice trembling slightly. "What's going on? My servants came looking for me and said you were poisoned?"
Li Nian's face was pale, her eyes red as she clutched Xiao Yunyu's hand tightly. She cried in fear, "Husband, I don't want to die yet. We're newlyweds, and I can't bear to leave you. Can you ask Miss Wen to detoxify me?"
Her gaze fell on Wen Luoxin again, and her soft voice was filled with helpless pleading: "As long as you remove the poison from my body, I can let go of everything and not investigate the truth..."
Before Li Nian could finish her words, Wen Luoxin suddenly raised her voice and said firmly, "Why don't you investigate? I haven't done anything, so I'm not afraid of you investigating!"
Wen Luoxin's eyes were sharp and straightforward, breaking away from the dignified and elegant temperament she had pretended to have. "You can go to the Wen Mansion and invite the servants from my mansion to come and ask them face to face!"
Upon hearing this, Chun Cui immediately retorted loudly, "What's there to ask? Our servants from the Xiao Mansion saw with their own eyes that your servants from the Wen Mansion came to the mansion to deliver a message!"
"Let's report to the police." Li Nian's voice was like a clear spring in the gurgling storm, with a suppressed tremor in his tone.
But every word he said was clear: "Since Miss Wen insists that she is innocent, then let's report it to the authorities, so that I, the victim, won't become the perpetrator."
Seeing her helpless and weak appearance, Xiao Yunyu's heart also tightened, and the dull pain spread to his throat with helplessness.
Thinking of the consequences of reporting the incident to the police, Xiao Yunyu's throat tightened: "I can't report it!"
Tutor Wen is the teacher of the current emperor, and even the current crown prince is his student.
Wen Luoxin has recently been loved not only by Master Wen, but also by the Emperor and the favored Imperial Concubine, who have great trust in her.
If she reported it to the authorities, even if those people wanted to protect her, they would be completely helpless with the limited power of Marquis Xiao's Mansion.
The most important thing now is his wife's health. As long as the poison is removed, he has plenty of ways to punish Wen Luoxin.
Madam Xiao was frightened by Li Nian's behavior. She thought that Yun was relying on Yun Yu's favor to make trouble for Second Miss Wen, and that she was holding a grudge against her for using Second Miss Wen to suppress their two wives last time.
Who knew that when I came to Shuixieju, I found out that Li Nian was really poisoned!
She was panicked for a moment, but when she heard Xiao Yunyu's words, she quickly agreed: "Yes, we can't report it to the authorities. We still have to wait for the Marquis to come back before making a decision on this matter."
Xiao Yunyu ignored Mrs. Xiao's words and looked at Doctor Wu.
His tense nerves made him feel dazed and helpless for a moment. His low, hoarse voice was filled with anxiety: "Doctor Wu, how is my wife's health now?"
Doctor Wu's back was already sweating slightly, his thoughts were in a mess because of what they had just said, and he had a different opinion of the rumored "Dr. Wen".
Doctor Wu bowed with composure, speaking frankly in a nervous tone, "I am incompetent. There is no way I can do anything about the poison in Madam's body."
Hearing what Doctor Wu said, Xiao Yunyu's heart suddenly tightened, as if it was grabbed by a big hand, and the pain was so severe that he couldn't breathe.
He took a deep breath and asked coldly, "When was the poisoning?"
Doctor Wu said truthfully, "About an hour ago."
Xiao Hong immediately raised her voice and said respectfully, "Master, Madam happened to be in Tianxiang Tower at that time, and Miss Wen also said that she was poisoned!"
Xiao Yunyu stabbed Wen Luoxin with a fierce look, and a sinister tone slowly came out of his throat: "Please, Doctor Wu, check on Miss Wen Er to see if she has been poisoned."
"Okay." Doctor Wu was frightened by his sudden violent pressure and broke out in a cold sweat. He walked up to Wen Luoxin and said politely, "Second Miss Wen, please extend your hand."
Wen Luoxin slowly raised her right hand and stretched it out. Her left hand, which was hanging by her side, had already been clenched into a fist. She gritted her teeth and endured the humiliation and unwillingness in her heart.
By the time Doctor Wu finished taking her pulse, Wen Luoxin was already furious: "How is it? Did I lie?"
"Second Miss Wen has indeed been poisoned, and her pulse is the same as that of the First Madam. It must be the same poison."
Hearing what Doctor Wu said, Wen Luoxin snorted coldly: "If it was really me who poisoned him, how could I have harmed myself as well?"
Li Nian's voice was filled with anticipation: "Then can Second Miss Wen cure this poison?"
Wen Luoxin was about to answer "I can cure it" when she suddenly thought that if she said she could cure the poison now, wouldn't it mean that she knew what kind of poison she was in?
That is to say, it is a one-sided admission that the poison is related to her.
No, I can’t say I can detoxify it now!
"I don't know. After all, I've never seen this kind of poison before. It takes time to study." She looked at Xiao Yunyu and said angrily, "If Master Xiao wants me to detoxify your wife, I'd better be nice."
Before Xiao Yunyu could speak, Xiaohong spoke up: "So, Second Miss Wen, was it you who invited our eldest lady today?"
Li Nian quickly lowered her head and pursed her lips to hold back her laughter. She wanted to give Xiaohong a thumbs up, it was such a great assist!
