Chapter 22: Cloud Vanilla?
"Yes, yes." The servant nodded and responded, then hurried to open the door and welcome Liang Weiyuan and his servant into the house.
Seeing Liang Weiyuan and his group heading towards the Qingzhu Courtyard of the main house, the gatekeeper closed the door and quickly went towards the main courtyard.
Ju Shu, who had excellent hearing, heard the noise, looked back, and whispered something in Liang Weiyuan's ear.
Liang Weiyuan just smiled calmly after hearing this and said, "Let him go. I didn't mean to hide it."
I suddenly brought a guard back with me. Given Yu's personality, how could she not be suspicious?
As long as Ye Zhonglin's true identity was not discovered, Liang Weiyuan allowed Yu to be suspicious.
When they arrived at Qingzhu Courtyard, Liang Weiyuan asked Jushu and Zhushu to guard the gate, while she, Meishu, Lanshu and Ye Zhonglin went into the bedroom where Huo Jinjian was.
"Sir, please."
Huo Jin, who was lying on the bed, heard some noise. It seemed that someone came in. The person who was talking should be his new wife.
gentlemen?
His wife invited the doctor back?
Not long after, Huo Jinjian felt someone holding his wrist and taking his pulse.
It wasn't his wife's hand, it seemed to be a man's hand.
Ye Zhonglin took the pulse, closed his eyes and felt the changes in the pulse, without saying a word.
Liang Weiyuan didn't bother him and just asked Lan Shu to get some hot water. She wrung out the handkerchief herself and wiped Huo Jinjian's face.
A warm handkerchief brushed against his cheek. Huo Jin could feel the gentleness of Liang Weiyuan's movements, and his heart felt as if it were brushed by a feather.
After about half a minute, Ye Zhonglin withdrew his hand from taking Huo Jinjian's pulse, and reached out to lift Huo Jinjian's eyelids, observing his pupils. Seeing that his eyes were red, he withdrew his hand and fell into deep thought.
"Sir, how is it?"
Liang Weiyuan put down the handkerchief and asked.
"General Huo's pulse is weak and slightly blocked. This is due to prolonged bed rest. It's not serious. With daily massage and good medicine, he will be fine after a period of recuperation."
Ye Zhonglin pondered for a moment before speaking, "It's the cloud grass poison in his body that's causing trouble."
Liang Weiyuan's expression turned stern.
Cloud vanilla?
"This Yunxiangcao is a rare herb found in the mountains of western Hunan. Taking it in moderation can treat insomnia. However, Yunxiangcao is poisonous, and the poison is hidden deep within the pulse, making it extremely difficult to detect. Consuming Yunxiangcao for months and years will not only cause a person to become drowsy, but can also unknowingly cost them their lives." Ye Zhonglin shook his head, sighing inwardly. "General Huo, the Yunxiangcao poison has penetrated deeply into his bones. If he doesn't detoxify, even if he wakes up one day, he'll likely suffer from chronic illness."
Someone wants Huo Jin to die without anyone knowing. The waters of Marquis Wenxin's Mansion are really deep!
Liang Weiyuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Mr. Ye, how can this poison be cured?"
Her honor and disgrace in this life are tied to Huo Jinjian, and she has to detoxify him no matter what.
Moreover, Huo Jinjian is a rare all-round talent in both civil and military affairs. It would be a pity if he were to remain sickly and unsuccessful throughout his life like in his previous life.
Huo Jin, who was lying on the couch, was also startled when he saw this and waited for Ye Zhonglin's answer.
"Of course it can be solved, but it's a bit troublesome." After Ye Zhonglin said this, he asked someone to prepare paper and pen and started writing the prescription.
Just at this moment, someone came from the kitchen of the Marquis' Mansion to deliver the medicine that Huo Jinjian needed to take daily.
"Madam is changing the eldest master's clothes. Just give the medicine to us." Ju Shu, who was guarding the door, was very smart and spoke loudly immediately.
Liang Weiyuan heard the voice and asked Ye Zhonglin to write the prescription and walked out.
Except for the Qingzhu Courtyard, the entire mansion is probably filled with Yu's spies, including the people in the kitchen.
"Madam." The maid who came to deliver the medicine bowed hurriedly when she saw Liang Weiyuan coming out, "This old servant is here to deliver medicine to the eldest master in the name of Madam."
"I just helped the eldest master change his clothes. I'm afraid it's not convenient for others to come in now. Madam, please give the medicine to me." Liang Weiyuan followed Jushu's words with a friendly smile on her face.
"Yes." The old woman naturally didn't dare to say more. She handed the medicine to Jushu and left.
Zhu Shu watched the old woman walk away, then closed the door and turned to Liang Weiyuan and said, "Miss, the old woman has also gone to the main courtyard."
Liang Weiyuan lowered her eyebrows slightly, raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a sarcastic smile.
This Yu family is really keeping a close eye on us!
