Chapter 188 Mother and Daughter Reunited
The woman frowned slightly, reached out and held Su Yuheng's wrist, her voice a little hoarse.
"You said you're only two months away from turning seventeen?"
Su Yuheng nodded, "Yeah."
"What a coincidence." The woman sighed, reached out to the edge of the bed and then sat down.
Su Yuheng deliberately asked: "What a coincidence? What does this mean, Madam?"
The woman said, "My child, counting the days now, is the same as yours—just two months short of turning seventeen."
“What a pity…what a pity.”
She sighed a few times, her empty eyes staring straight ahead.
She was blind and could not see Su Yuheng clearly, but she could clearly smell the faint fragrance on the girl.
"Where are you from?"
Su Yuheng bit his lip, gently reached out to touch the woman's wrist, and took her pulse.
The pulse is weak, the flow is poor, and there is insufficient qi and blood.
Judging from the woman's current condition, she was probably not poisoned, but possessed by a Gu.
These eyes are also blind because of this poison.
The child Gu is dormant in the blood, so you need to find the mother Gu and kill her.
Or you can cut your wrists and let the blood out to release the parasites in the blood.
This is not a difficult task.
The most important thing right now is how to get her out.
"I am from Dayan."
As Su Yuheng finished speaking, the woman's hands froze and an incredible expression appeared on her face.
She asked word by word: "From Dayan? Where in Dayan are you from?"
Su Yuheng said: "Great Yan, the imperial city of Yanjing."
"Yanjing?" The woman's eyes gradually turned red.
A barely perceptible smile appeared on her face again.
"Yanjing is great, Yanjing is great."
"I also lived in Yanjing when I was young. It was like spring all year round there, and there was warm sunshine even in winter."
She was silent for a moment, then continued, "Have you ever heard of the Shen family, the Grand General's Mansion, in Yanjing?"
"I don't know what happened to the Shen family. They are full of loyal and brave people."
"General Shen was young and promising, fighting on the battlefield, so impressive. They should be living well now, right?"
Su Yuheng withdrew his hand and glanced at the woman for a moment.
She is now certain that she is her mother.
She was silent for a long time before she spoke.
"not good."
"General Shen is gone, and the men of the Shen family have been slaughtered."
She spoke calmly, but the woman on the edge of the bed froze in place.
The woman trembled slightly, somewhat unconvinced.
"What did you say? General Shen... General Shen, Shen Kuo is gone?"
"The men of the Shen family were slaughtered?"
She stood up trembling and reached out to grab Su Yuheng's sleeve.
I asked her in disbelief, "Little girl, you lied to me, didn't you?"
Her voice was hoarse and somewhat unwilling: "How could General Shen be gone? The Shen family is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, who wants to harm them?"
"What about the rest of the Shen family? All the men in the Shen family have been slaughtered. What about Shen Tingzhou? Also, what about Shen Wan and Old Madam Shen? How are they doing?"
The woman's voice became increasingly hoarse, and tears welled up in her hollow eyes.
His whole body was trembling, and his hands unconsciously grabbed Su Yuheng's sleeves.
Seeing her like this, Su Yuheng said calmly: "The rest of the Shen family is fine."
"But Madam Shen is ill now, and I don't know how long she can hold on."
Hearing this, the woman's heart was in a knot.
General Shen died, and all the other male members of the Shen family were beheaded.
"Why?" the woman murmured softly.
“General Shen is such a good person, why would you harm him?”
Su Yuheng helped the trembling woman up and sat her on the edge of the bed.
Before coming here, she had considered whether or not to tell her mother about the massacre of the male members of the Shen family.
But after much hesitation, I still told him.
After all, this kind of thing cannot be concealed.
After the woman sat down, Su Yuheng got up from the edge of the bed, walked to the medicine box on the table, and took out a sharp dagger from it.
At this point, she was able to determine what kind of poison her mother was infected with.
She asked the woman tentatively.
"Why is Madam imprisoned here?"
The woman shook her head and said, "It's just fate."
"No, it's not fate." Su Yuheng retorted.
"You have a poison in your body. If you don't mind, I can help you get rid of it."
The woman sighed and said, "Why are you helping me? You're from Yanjing, so why are you here in this ruthless prime minister's mansion?"
Su Yuheng was silent for a long time, glanced at the woman, and said, "I... I came here for you."
"Come for me?" The woman frowned slightly and stretched out her hand.
"You came from Yanjing for me? What's your name?"
Su Yuheng bit her lip and said, "My name is Shen Yuheng."
"Chen, Yu, Heng?"
"Could it be her?"
Su Yuheng had a blank expression on his face. He reached out and took the woman's hand, whispering, "I wonder who this woman you're talking about?"
The woman said, "As for the child who was swapped with me, I asked Divine Doctor Feng Wu to find her secretly and teach her medical skills, but I don't know..."
The woman's words stopped abruptly, and she suddenly reached out to touch Su Yuheng's cheek like a madman.
"Little girl, come closer to me."
Su Yuheng held her breath as the woman's hand fell on her cheek again.
She trembled slightly and muttered to herself.
"You...you are?"
"Bang!" The door of the wing room was kicked open, and the two people inside were startled.
Su Yuheng looked back and saw Minglang, dressed in gorgeous clothes, coming in from outside, followed by two or three guards and several maids.
"You are so brave! Who let you in?"
Minglang shouted harshly, strode up to Su Yuheng, grabbed her wrist and pulled her away.
The sudden change left Su Yuheng and the woman stunned.
The woman couldn't see with her eyes, so she just reached forward tentatively.
She trembled and said, "Cousin, who is she?"
"Is she my daughter? Is she the daughter who was switched to the Su family?"
"Is she here? She's here to look for her mother."
Minglang's face was stern. He didn't answer her, but just glared at Su Yuheng fiercely.
"Come here, send the young lady back to Zijing Garden. She is not allowed to come out without my permission!"
Two maids came over and were about to take Su Yuheng to the Bauhinia Garden. Seeing this, Su Yuheng quickly pushed them away.
She said coldly, "Oh, no wonder, no wonder you wouldn't let me see Mother. It turns out you imprisoned Mother in this desolate courtyard!"
"Look at what kind of place she has here. It's moldy and smelly. No wonder she has a cough!"
"Since you robbed her, why did you treat her like this?"
The woman on the edge of the bed had a frown on her face.
She said in disbelief, "You...you are really my daughter, really Heng'er?"
"Is it Heng'er? Is it the child that the Su family stole away?"
"Yes, I am Heng'er." Su Yuheng bit her lip.
"I am going to Qin State this time just for you."
She looked at Minglang coldly, "Prime Minister, won't you give me an explanation?"
"Why imprison my mother here? Is this how you love her? If you hate her, why don't you let her go?"
"Why did you imprison her in such a place and torture her?"
