Chapter 238 Self-sowing Causes
The blood fell on his face without warning like a fine red mist, bringing a warm but pungent smell of blood.
Gu Xizhi's vision was blurred by the glaring red color, and she could only vaguely see the source of the blood.
In an instant, fear and panic surged up in my head, and my heart seemed to be about to burst out of my chest.
"Mother?"
Gu Xizhi called out in a daze.
Mother Mo started coughing violently, one louder than the other, and blood continued to flow from her lips.
She was filled with panic and felt dizzy.
But when she looked up, she saw Gu Xizhi's dazed and embarrassed appearance. Mother Mo felt heartbroken and could no longer take care of herself. She hurriedly raised her sleeve to wipe the blood off Gu Xizhi's face.
"Girl, don't be afraid, don't be afraid."
Mother Mo spoke in a trembling voice, but she started coughing again and again.
Gu Xizhi felt the slightly rough cuff rubbing against her cheek. Her senses gradually returned, but she was shaking like a sieve.
“Mom, mom!”
Tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes, blending with the bloodstains on his face.
Gu Xizhi hurriedly clenched Mother Mo's hand, raised her head and looked at Shen Jiasui at the door, her eyes full of resentment, and she shouted at the top of her voice:
"Shen Jiasui, what did you do to my mother? This is my only relative, why don't you come to me!"
Shen Jiasui had already taken a few steps closer at this time, his face full of surprise.
She clearly...didn't do anything.
Gu Xizhi saw the confusion on Shen Jiasui's face, but her expression twisted, and the resentment in her eyes seemed to want to cut Shen Jiasui into pieces.
"Why are you pretending to be innocent? Did you poison me? Where is the antidote?"
"Shen Jiasui, you have such a vicious heart!"
Shen Jiasui ignored Gu Xizhi's chatter.
She looked carefully at Mother Mo and saw that she covered her lips with her hands. With each cough, blood oozed out from between her fingers and her face turned as white as paper.
The blood dripping on the ground was all from her coughing up.
Shen Jiasui seemed to understand.
Seeing that Gu Xizhi was still cursing, Shen Jiasui raised his voice and said firmly: "You killed her."
Gu Xizhi was stunned when she heard the words, thinking that this was Shen Jiasui's sophistry. She was about to speak, but Mother Mo let out a "wow" and spit out another large mouthful of blood.
Seeing Mother Mo falling to the ground helplessly, Gu Xizhi was completely panicked.
“Mom, mom!”
She screamed a few times in panic, unable to shake off the huge panic.
She had just lost Yun Zheng, and in this world, only Mother Mo was willing to treat her well.
Over the years, her mother devoted herself to her, and it was with great difficulty that she was able to bring her to her side.
She has been very satisfied and secure in recent days.
With her lover and relatives by her side, she even regretted countless times at night why she had called out to Prince Rui in the Guanyin Temple.
If...if even Mother Mo left her, then she...
Suddenly, Gu Xizhi stood up, knelt down in front of Shen Jiasui, and then kowtowed again and again, crying:
"Sui Sui, I was wrong! I was really wrong! I deserve to die, I am despicable, you can ask me to do anything, at least... at least spare Mother Mo!"
"Sui Sui, I beg you! Antidote, give me the antidote! I'm willing to exchange my life for it!"
In order to keep Mother Mo, Gu Xizhi didn't care about anything else at this moment.
"Girl, no..."
Mother Mo spoke vaguely, and even wiped her bloody hands on her body before grabbing Gu Xizhi's sleeve.
Shen Jiasui looked at Gu Xizhi who was knocking her head loudly, but his heart was so cold and hard that he was not moved at all.
She had also been in such a desperate situation.
In order to gain that tiny bit of hope, one can kneel down in the street, crawl on his knees to catch up with the sedan chair, or even knock his head until it bleeds.
"Gu Xizhi, you said that Mother Mo is your only relative?"
"She was coughing up blood, which shows that she is very ill."
"During the days you lived with her, you never heard her cough, didn't you know that she tossed and turned at night, and didn't you see her coughing up blood?"
"She has kept your letters for so many years and has kept them so well. Have you ever asked her how she did it?"
"For six or seven years, the yard has remained the same, and you will be choked to tears if you get close to it. Have you ever been there?"
"Prince Rui invited an imperial physician for you. Out of concern and love, have you ever asked the imperial physician to check Mama Mo's pulse to see if she's safe?"
"In the final analysis, the only person you care about the most is yourself. You always take for granted the kindness of others towards you, and only when you lose them do you realize that it is too late."
Shen Jiasui's voice was cold, and every word he said was clearly heard by Gu Xizhi.
sick?
Gu Xizhi slowly straightened up.
She had indeed heard her mother coughing several times during the day, and she also knew that her mother sometimes had trouble sleeping at night, so she had really wanted the imperial physician to take her mother's pulse.
But my mother was worried that it would bother the imperial physician and make him unhappy, and that he would no longer be willing to do his best to treat her, so she refused.
She just smiled and said that her mother was worrying too much, but didn't insist on saying another word.
She had such a serious illness, and they lived in the same yard, so why had she never heard her mother cough at night?
Gu Xizhi didn't have to think deeply, as she already had the answer.
She often complained to her mother that she could not sleep well at night because of the injury on her hand.
So in order not to disturb her, her mother tried her best to hold it in. When she couldn't bear it any longer, she covered her mouth with a quilt, and only then did she manage to muffle the coughing sound so that she couldn't hear it at all.
"No... no, young lady, it is the slave herself."
Mother Mo felt her throat was blocked and she couldn't breathe. She could hardly see anything at the moment.
She thought her time of death had come.
It's okay.
However, we cannot let the girl live with guilt because of her worthless life.
"It's my body... cough cough cough——"
"Mother!"
Gu Xizhi leaned over, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably, falling to the ground in large drops.
She tried to pat Mother Mo's back, but she was coughing so hard that her whole body was shaking.
Gu Xizhi's heart was trembling, and she quickly knelt in front of Shen Jiasui, raised her hand to pull Shen Jiasui's skirt, and cried:
"Sui Sui, help me, help me find a doctor, okay? I beg you! Please!"
At this time, Mother Mo also crawled over with difficulty. She knelt down and kowtowed to Shen Jiasui, begging:
"Miss Shen, let...let my girl go. I will give you my life..."
Shen Jiasui curled the corners of his mouth.
The master and servant have a deep affection for each other, and both want to exchange their lives for each other's, which makes her seem like an unforgivable villain.
But all good and evil deeds will be rewarded, just like a shadow following the body. There is no turning back once the chess game is over; this is the result of one's own actions.
This is the bitter fruit of their own evil deeds, and they should accept it calmly. How can they expect Shen Jiasui to be soft-hearted and merciful?
"Gu Xizhi, you should know that Mama Mo can't wait for the doctor to come. If I were you, I would hurry up and say a few more words."
"As for Mother Mo..."
"You're begging me now, but you just ran into me so fiercely. Aren't you trying to kill me?"
Having said this, Shen Jiasui waved his hand and neatly pulled the hem of his skirt back from Gu Xizhi's hands.
She turned around and walked outside.
She didn't listen carefully to the intermittent voices in the room, but after a while, she heard Gu Xizhi's grief-stricken crying, mixed with the sound of "I'm sorry".
Shen Jiasui remained expressionless and raised his hand to block the glaring sunlight above his head.
She thought that Lu Yunzheng should be approaching the palace gate soon.
At this time, Daddy and Axun must have already met up in front of the Emperor.
What kind of "bloody storm" are they experiencing at this moment?

Ahhh, no, I still can’t write it today! ! !
(_|||)
You guys should just stock up and read it recently. The updates have been unstable these days and I’m almost scratching my head.
It turns out that my skills are not up to par, and I can't tolerate logical loopholes, unless I haven't thought of it or noticed it. If I have considered it, I have to fill it.
It’s okay for everyone to wait until it’s finished before coming back. I won’t worry about the data or anything like that. I’ll just be thankful that I can finish this book well.
o(╥﹏╥)o
