Chapter 492 Death is too easy for him
Zong Li acted quickly. Five days later, he quietly sent out the servants stationed in Xiao's house. Then he went to report to Lu Xiang and asked her what to do next.
Lu Xiang asked him to wait and see.
Zong Li was puzzled as to why she didn't just reveal the news that Xiao Muheng had taken the Wu Shi San. The emperor would be the first one who would not forgive her.
Lu Xiang smiled but said nothing.
Death is the easiest thing. What she wants is for Xiao Muheng to live a life worse than death.
Suffering from devastation and torture, in times of despair he recalls every day his past glory, and the resentment of having nothing in the end despite having the power that was clearly within his grasp.
Xiao Mansion.
Xiao Muheng suddenly went crazy and scared everyone in the house. Mrs. Xiao immediately sent someone to call a doctor.
However, although the doctor arrived, he was unable to get close to Xiao Muheng. He was throwing things like a madman with a look of pain on his face. The servants wanted to step forward to stop him, but the mad Xiao Muheng bit off a piece of their flesh. Heart-wrenching roars rang out in the room, and no one dared to step forward for a while.
Madam Xiao was frightened by the scene in front of her and her face turned pale. She held the door frame tightly and trembled as she shouted, "Call more people to hold down the young master."
how so?
Why did her good son suddenly go crazy?
Mrs. Xiao was shocked and angry.
Finally, the butler called the guards in the mansion, and several of them attracted Xiao Muheng's attention. One of them took a stick and knocked him unconscious when he was not prepared.
Boom——
Xiao Muheng fell straight to the ground.
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Xiao shouted and ran inside. The servants hurriedly helped the man to the bed. To prevent Xiao Muheng from waking up and going crazy again, Master Xiao ordered people to tie him up with a rope.
"Take his pulse quickly." Mr. Xiao said hurriedly to the doctor standing at the door.
The doctor came back to his senses from his shock, hurried into the room, sat down, and took Xiao Muheng's pulse.
Mr. and Mrs. Xiao looked at the doctor nervously and anxiously.
It was not until a long time later, when the two people were almost losing their patience, that the doctor let go of his hand, but his face looked very ugly.
When the two saw this, their hearts skipped a beat.
"How is it going?"
The doctor looked at Mr. Xiao and Mrs. Xiao and asked, "How long has the eldest young master been in this condition?"
The two were stunned. Master Xiao shook his head and said, "He suddenly went crazy today and looked very painful."
The doctor pondered for a moment and was not surprised by what Mr. Xiao said.
After all, if the young master had shown these symptoms a long time ago, it would be impossible that he was only asked to come and take his pulse today.
Mrs. Xiao saw that the doctor didn't say anything, and she was very anxious: "Please explain clearly, what happened to my son?"
"In reply to the old lady's words, the young master was poisoned by the Five Stones Powder. Because he failed to take the Five Stones Powder in time, the drug addiction took effect and he was in agony and insanity."
As the doctor spoke, his brows furrowed tightly, and he was thinking to himself, should he run away quickly after leaving the Xiao Mansion to avoid being implicated?
Mr. Xiao and Madam Xiao were stunned by his words, their eyes wide open with disbelief.
Five Stone Powder...
"What nonsense are you talking about? How could my son be poisoned by Wu Shi San? Get out, you quack doctor. Get out now." Mrs. Xiao was so angry that she pointed at the doctor and cursed him, but her trembling body betrayed her fear.
Mr. Xiao came back to his senses after hearing Mrs. Xiao's roar, and his first reaction was to glance sharply and warningly at everyone in the room.
"Don't tell anyone about what happened today, otherwise, as servants of the Xiao family, none of you can escape responsibility. The young master only asked for a doctor because of a recurrence of an old injury. Did you hear me?"
The news that my son took Wu Shi San must not be spread...
Damn it, he didn't even notice when it happened.
Who wants to harm his son and their Xiao family?
Everyone nodded anxiously, their heads lowered, feeling terrified.
No one is willing to sacrifice their lives. If the emperor knew that the young master took Wu Shi San, these servants would be skinned alive if not killed.
"Xiao Tong, check thoroughly for me. There must be some Wu Shi San in the mansion." Master Xiao instructed the butler again.
If Xiao Muheng does not continue to take Wu Shi San, he will still do uncontrollable crazy things after waking up and suffer great torture and pain.
Xiao Tong responded: "Yes, sir."
"Everyone, please leave. The doctor stays." Mr. Xiao ordered in a cold voice.
Everyone left, and the doctor who stayed behind had a trace of uneasiness on his face: "I wonder if the master has any other instructions?"
"You will stay in the Xiao Mansion for the time being and treat the young master."
The doctor was shocked when he heard this, and said anxiously: "Master, my medical skills are not good enough, please ask for help from a better doctor."
He is about to die, and he is left behind. Will he be able to get out alive?
Master Xiao stared at the doctor with his dark eyes and sneered, "Let's be frank. Do you think I can let you go before my son gets better?"
The doctor looked at Mr. Xiao with a deathly pale face, opened his mouth for a long time but couldn't utter a word.
This was no longer a euphemism for keeping him here, but a blatant ban on his travel.
But the doctor didn't dare to refute, believing that if he dared to sneak away, he would be dead in the next moment.
An hour later, Xiao Tong hurried back.
Mr. Xiao sat in the room and didn't leave. Mrs. Xiao was crying uncontrollably. Mr. Xiao became annoyed and drove her away.
"Master, I found this." Xiao Tong walked into the room with a medicine bag and said seriously, "I found it in a servant's room. He is a kitchen helper. I asked him and no one has seen him since dinner yesterday. I suspect he ran away."
Mr. Xiao's veins popped out when he heard this. He handed the medicine bag to the doctor first and asked, "Is it Wu Shi San?"
The doctor took it reluctantly, sniffed it carefully, and then put a little on the tip of his tongue to taste it: "This is it, feed it to the old man when he wakes up."
Xiao Tong looked at the doctor's actions and was dumbfounded: "Doctor, aren't you afraid of getting addicted?"
"It's just a little bit. It won't be a problem." After all, if Wu Shi San is used properly, it can be considered a medicinal ingredient. However, the risks are too great. It has been strictly prohibited in this dynasty, and medical practitioners will not touch this thing.
Xiao Tong nodded blankly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a muffled groan was heard from the bed. The doctor quickly poured some Wu Shi San into the tea and fed it to Xiao Muheng before he went crazy.
The effect of Wu Shi San was immediate. Xiao Muheng let out a comfortable sigh and his expression slowly regained its calm. He moved subconsciously and found that he was tied up. He looked at Master Xiao in astonishment.
"father?"
"How are you, son?"
"Quick, quick, untie the young master." The doctor said hurriedly, "After taking the Wu Shi San, the young master needs to go out."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tong hurried forward and untied the rope that tied up Xiao Muheng.
