However, the expected pain did not come.
Changsun Lingyue looked at Changsun Li, who was standing right in front of her with a worried look on his face, and her eyes flashed.
"Lingyue, if your hand is injured, how can you still participate in the competition?"
"father--"
Changsun Lingyue bit her lips hard, as if she was afraid that if she continued talking, she would burst into tears.
Chang Sun Li looked back at everyone and said, "You may not believe Ling Yue, but I am still her father after all. I believe she would never do anything to hurt her grandfather."
Changsun Lingrui obviously didn't believe it, and he was about to refute it, but was stopped by Qu Li.
Qu Li's sharp gaze quickly swept across Caiyue's face. Caiyue was so frightened by the cold and murderous aura emanating from her body that her breathing suddenly stopped.
"Second cousin, for your sake, I can let this matter go! Uncle needs a quiet environment, you all go back!"
Chang Sun Li nodded: "In that case, I will take Ling Yue back first!"
"good."
After everyone left, Changsun Lingzuo sighed: "How did Lingyue become like this now?"
"Human hearts are hard to predict!" Changsun Lingyou sighed.
"You two, stop talking!" Chang Sun Wu glanced at the two of them.
The two brothers said "Oh" at the same time.
Changsun Lingrui pursed his lips tightly, and his dark eyes seemed to be filled with gloom, making it impossible to tell his emotions.
"Brother, what are you thinking about?" Changsun Lingzuo touched his arm.
"Nothing!" Changsun Lingrui retracted his gaze and asked Qu Li, "Aunt, is Grandfather really okay?"
"We are still under observation. Although the surgery was performed promptly this time, there will definitely be sequelae. Moreover, these injuries cannot be reversed by rehabilitation alone."
"Aunt, why did Grandfather suddenly become like this?"
Changsun Lingrui was filled with emotion.
His grandfather was such a handsome and extraordinary man, but he could only sit in a wheelchair, was even paralyzed on one side of his body, and lay in bed with crooked eyes and nose until he died of old age. This was the most heartbreaking thing for him.
"I used a medicine to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis! I'll go check the medicine residue first."
The prescription she prescribed was suitable for Changsun Wuji and would definitely not cause any harm.
Changsun Lingrui told his two brothers Changsun Lingyou to keep a close eye on it, and then followed Qu Li to check the medicinal residue.
Not finding anything wrong with the medicine residue, she sniffed it carefully again.
"There's a concoction of saffron here."
Saffron has the effect of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. She finally managed to seal the bleeding point in Changsun Wuji's brain. It was because of saffron that his brain blood vessels burst and he suffered extensive bleeding.
Changsun Lingrui clenched his fists, murderous intent surging in his eyes.
"Grandfather has always been kind to others, and many people have benefited from his kindness! He shouldn't be treated like this!"
Qu Li once said that if the disease recurs, the situation will not be optimistic.
Even if Ling Yue framed Qu Li out of jealousy that he was better than her and was confused for a moment, these servants should have their own considerations.
As long as they remembered the kindness that Changsun Wuji had shown them, they would not help Changsun Lingyue to commit atrocities!
Noticing Changsun Lingrui's excitement, Qu Li gently patted his shoulder.
"The matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet, and it may not be related to Changsun Lingyue."
"Cousin, the situation is already very clear! You don't have to help Lingyue against your will just for the sake of the Changsun family's internal unity! I don't have such a cruel sister!"
He was really disappointed with Changsun Lingyue.
Qu Li did not speak.
At the beginning, she did suspect that Changsun Lingyue was jealous and wanted to plot against her, so she designed all this.
This is also the reason why she slapped Changsun Lingyue hard when she questioned her like that.
In the end, he no longer suspected Changsun Lingyue because she was holding a hairpin and wanted to cripple her own hand to prove her innocence.
She was very sure that Changsun Lingyue was not putting on a show at that time.
Coupled with Caiyue's erratic gaze, she no longer doubted Changsun Lingyue.
Qu Li called Zhou Bo, who was in charge of boiling the medicine.
As early as when Changsun Wuji fell ill and Qu Li performed surgery on him, Zhou Bo was extremely scared.
Facing Qu Li at this moment, his whole body was shaking.
"Uncle Zhou, was there anyone near you when you were making medicine for grandpa?" Changsun Lingrui asked.
Uncle Zhou shook his head: "This is the master's medicine. I was extremely careful when I prepared it."
"Look after him the whole time?" Qu Li asked.
Her eyes were so sharp that Uncle Zhou felt his scalp tingling when she stared at him.
"Old slave..."
Fine beads of sweat oozed out of Zhou Bo's forehead, slid down his cheeks to his chin, and soon wet his collar.
"Uncle Zhou, it was because I heard that you were an elder of the Changsun family that I trusted you with the task of making the medicine." Qu Li stared at Uncle Zhou closely, his eyes so sharp that they seemed to be able to see through Uncle Zhou's soul.
Uncle Zhou fell to his knees with a plop.
"Miss Qu, I was sleepy and yawned."
Changsun Lingrui was furious, his eyes red, and he grabbed his collar fiercely: "Didn't you just say that it was grandfather's medicine, and you were so careful the whole time?"
So many things happened in the Changsun family one after another, which made Changsun Lingrui feel that human hearts are really scary.
Qu Li held his arm: "Don't do this!"
Zhou Bo was so frightened that his face turned pale as paper and he even kept rolling his eyes.
Changsun Lingrui reluctantly let go of his hand, panting heavily, like a trapped beast.
"Uncle Zhou, did you notice anything unusual after you woke up?" Qu Li asked.
"No!" Zhou Bo shook his head. "Not really, it seems there were a few drops of medicine on the medicine pot, and I wiped it off without thinking much about it. I'm sorry, Master!"
As he spoke, tears streamed down his face and he cried until he was suffocated.
Changsun Lingrui pursed his lips into a tight line.
"You're just sorry for Grandpa? Do you know that it's because of your negligence that Grandpa has become like this?"
"Ling Rui, since the other party wants to take advantage of the opportunity to set a trap, it is probably not a coincidence that Uncle Zhou is sleepy!"
Chang Sun Lingrui's eyes widened, "Could it be..."
Qu Li nodded.
Someone deliberately used this opportunity to kill Changsun Wuji and divide the unity within the Changsun clan.
Then they questioned several servants.
These people are all old servants of the Changsun family. They usually receive a lot of care from Changsun Lingyue. They originally did not intend to tell everything, but now it concerns the safety of Changsun Wuji, and Qu Li is so fierce, so they can only tell everything in the end.
Caiyue came, and Changsun Lingyue really wanted to set up a vicious plan to frame Qu Li.
However, Changsun Lingyue's plan was to make use of the medicinal residue, which was why Changsun Lingyue asked that question when she saw Qu Li.
Anger was boiling in Changsun Lingrui's eyes.
"Cousin, Ling Yue is truly disappointing! Someone like her doesn't deserve the surname 'Chang Sun'!"
