Chapter 46: Those who lose their patience will eventually be checked and balanced by others.
When they heard this, their faces suddenly changed.
"Besides, I was locked up at home after I left the palace. The rumors that Gu Yanchen and I had had physical contact were spread by Li Si..."
"I didn't know this at first. She told me in person after she found out that I was granted marriage. She also said that if she hadn't helped spread the word for me, she definitely wouldn't have married into the Gu family!"
The more the women of the Gu family listened, the angrier they became.
"I never thought that Li Sinian, who is only fourteen, could be so vicious."
"He has framed the Gu family in this way and ruined your reputation. It seems we have to be careful with this person in the future."
"I really have to be careful. She has a very good relationship with my concubine sister. She always pretends to be friendly to me, but in fact, many things they do are deliberately to make me look bad in front of everyone.
I was also stupid at the time, thinking that I had no friends around me. Seeing how well they treated me, I foolishly treated them as my true friends. I never thought..."
I don’t know if it was the original body’s own emotions at work, or if Ran Qingxuan’s eyes began to turn red when he thought of his childhood self.
The women in the Gu family felt heartbroken when they saw Ran Qingxuan, who had always been strong, like this.
In fact, Ran Qingxuan was just thinking about her childhood self. She didn't take Li Si, who was vicious at such a young age, seriously at all.
Gu Yanchen also heard these words while lying on the cart. Seeing that Ran Qingxuan was in a low mood, he silently kept the matter in mind.
But he believed that with Ran Qingxuan's current state of mind, he would never let himself suffer at the hands of Li Si again.
At the urging of the official, the group hastily finished their steamed buns and were tidying up their clothes when Qian Zheng and Bu Fei headed towards Gu's house.
The women of the Gu family began to get nervous upon seeing this, except Ran Qingxuan who just stood there motionless.
"Our leader was the most seriously poisoned yesterday and hasn't recovered yet. I'm afraid we'll have to use your cart." Bu Fei said with a sullen face and a stiff tone.
The eldest sister-in-law Zhou Furong supported Madam Gu and said dissatisfiedly: "But my sixth brother is still unconscious. If the official is like this, how can we women carry him?"
When Bu Fei heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "That's your business, I gave you steamed buns yesterday and this morning as a thank you.
We are giving you face by using your cart today. Do you really want our leader to ride in the same cart with the prisoner Gu Yanchen? ”
"The Gu family consists of women. If my sixth brother doesn't lie on the cart, how can we take him away?" The second sister-in-law was so angry that she stood in front of the cart to prevent the officers from getting close.
The fire in Bu Fei's heart was instantly ignited by the Gu family, and his hand reached for the whip on his waist.
"How dare you go against the police? I'm giving you a chance, right?"
The police officers had already drawn their whips. Except for a few individuals, the others who were eager to see their families laughed at looked towards the end of the team, with expressions that showed they were enjoying a good show on their faces.
Li Si and her mother looked at Ran Qingxuan with gloating eyes, and even murmured: "Beat them, beat them hard, it would be best if Ran Qingxuan and the others were beaten to death..."
Seeing that her second daughter-in-law was about to suffer physical pain, Mrs. Gu immediately stepped forward to protect her, with a helpless expression on her face.
Gu Yanchen was protected by his mother and sister-in-law behind him, and a feeling of bitterness had already risen in his heart. If the officers insisted on using the cart, he would be forced to wake up.
With Ran Qingxuan's personality, he would never be exposed, so she could only carry him on her back. How could he just stand there and do nothing?
Just as he was about to slowly open his eyes, Ran Qingxuan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"Mr. Qian, did Bu Chatou keep coughing after he went to bed last night? And he couldn't drink water or eat food this morning?"
As soon as Ran Qingxuan finished speaking and Qian Zheng hadn't answered, Bu Fei beside her immediately rushed over and tried to pull her.
"How do you know? I was watching over him the whole night, and our leader's condition was exactly as you described. This morning, he couldn't even drink water..."
Having said that, Bu Fei looked at Ran Qingxuan with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Could it be that you didn't cure our leader last night, which is why he..."
Upon hearing this, Ran Qingxuan's face immediately darkened. Qian Zheng frowned and pulled over the incoherent Bu Fei.
"Our leader's condition is a bit serious, otherwise he wouldn't have to fight with His Royal Highness King Chen for the use of the cart."
The ironic words of the King of Dust made the Gu family realize their current situation. If these officials were to use force, they would be powerless.
But the reason why the officer came in a negotiating tone was entirely because of the fact that Ran Qingxuan saved people yesterday.
In the stalemate, Ran Qingxuan said coldly: "Take me over to have a look."
To be honest, if there was a choice, Ran Qingxuan would definitely not be as easy to talk to as he is now. It's good enough that he didn't kill me, but he also gave me medical treatment...
If it weren't for the fact that the Gu family was composed entirely of women and she was the only one who could legitimately betray Gu Yanchen, how could she have wronged herself like this.
Qian Zheng brought people to the dilapidated temple. Bu Wei was holding his stomach in pain and his face looked very bad.
Ran Qingxuan stepped forward to take the patient's pulse, and after a moment he said in a cold voice: "You ate the rhizome of the heartbreak grass, and you are severely poisoned. Although your life was saved yesterday, there is still some poison in your stomach.
Constant coughing is because toxins are eroding your throat and trachea, and the same is true if you can't drink water or eat food.
If you don't get timely treatment, it will still cost you your life. ”
Bu Wei saw that Ran Qingxuan looked unhappy, then looked at Bu Fei and immediately understood what had happened.
"In this case, is there any forensic treatment?"
Bu Wei felt uncomfortable all night last night, and this morning he couldn't even drink water. He vomited as soon as he drank. He even felt dizzy and listless.
He also had some doubts about Ran Qingxuan's medical skills, thinking that a young lady from an official family who never left the house must have just read a few more books and had no knowledge of medicine at all.
If she had heard my cough, I might have doubted what she said now, but she even knew that I couldn't drink water or eat food in the morning, which showed that she did have some medical skills.
Ran Qingxuan slowly stood up and stood still without answering, but his face remained cold.
In fact, in her opinion, as long as Bu Wei insisted on taking the medicine, the remaining toxins in his body would be excreted in ten days at most, and his inability to eat or drink was just a side effect of yesterday's vomiting.
But she didn't want to tell the truth. If she didn't use this matter to intimidate the officials like Bu Wei, the women of the Gu family would have no choice but to give up the cart and carry Gu Yanchen on their journey.
It would be a lie for Bu Wei to say he was not panicking. Before he could ask further, Bu Fei beside him said excitedly.
"Tell me, is there any way to save my brother?"
Ran Qingxuan laughed secretly in his heart. Those who lose their patience will eventually be checked and controlled by others.
"Yes, there is, but..."
Seeing Ran Qingxuan looking outside the ruined temple, Bu Wei instantly understood what she meant, and his face, which had been pale just now, instantly turned gloomy.
