He might as well sit in front of the bed holding the four big words "I lack evidence", so that she can show off as soon as she opens her eyes, which would make her happier. Well, she can't read the writing, so what he said "I lack evidence" is fine. All in all, this woman is just too inconsiderate.
Long Er was still angry, but Han Xiao was very curious, what kind of poison and method did he use
Ju Muer woke up again in the middle of the night the next day.
At first she felt pain all over her body, and then she felt that she had no strength at all. She was too tired to open her eyes, but she soon found herself sleeping with her arms crossed, which was her preferred position. The person she was cuddling with had a familiar scent, which smelled good, and made her feel at ease.
"Second master." She couldn't help calling softly. Now I don't know if it's night or noon, she rubbed against her, and hugged Long Er even tighter, Long Er didn't take a nap with her for a long time.
"Are you awake?" Long Er spoke carefully, he turned over and hugged her very lightly. Ju Muer was a little confused, she hugged her back and pressed it to the palm of her hand, and suddenly felt a pain, and then she remembered everything.
"Second Master, Second Master, what happened to those guards?"
Unable to hear Long Er's reply, she said anxiously again: "Second Master, I killed someone, I... I killed that fake Lin Yueyao..."
"Don't panic, it's okay."
"Second Master, did you find me on the tree?"
"Not me, who else?"
"I wanted to wait until someone I knew came. The second master is gone. I don't think they can guess what I mean. I will greet them when they come, but I fell asleep."
Long Er hugged her tightly: "You slept for a long time."
sleep for a long time? Ju Muer blinked, she just had a few nightmares, why did it take so long? She has a lot of questions to ask, she wants to ask those guards, she wants to ask fake Lin Yueyao and the helpers she brought.
Long Er also has a lot to say to her. He told her how he got back, he told her that everyone thought she was dead, but he saw the message she left. He praised her for being smart, for always remembering to tell him where she was going. He told her that the doctors who couldn't cure her were very annoying, and he also told her that there was a distinguished doctor at home. The woman named Han Xiao was a very great doctor, but her husband, City Lord Nie, didn't like it. People like it, so she doesn't have to pay attention to him.
The two of you said one sentence to me, but they couldn't finish talking. Ju Muer told all the things she heard from the false Lin Yueyao, and heard that all the guards were killed, and cried bitterly. Taking advantage of her wiping her tears, Long Er got up and called the maid to bring the porridge.
The porridge was so soft and rotten that it melted in the mouth. Although it was mixed with medicine, it tasted a little bad, but it smelled much better than soup. Ju Muer hadn't eaten seriously for several days, Long Er was careful, for fear that she would vomit again. But Ju Mu'er accidentally drank half a bowl, which made Long Er overjoyed. If Han Xiao hadn't told him to drink only half a bowl, he could only wish to bring the pot.
After finishing the porridge, Ju Mu'er felt that all the energy in her body had been exhausted, and she could barely open her eyes when lying on the bed. Long Er stroked her hair, and said softly: "Sleep well, and when the time comes, I will wake you up and take medicine."
Ju Muer closed her eyes, grasping Long Er's big hand, feeling relieved. Just about to go to sleep, he suddenly said: "I remembered what I wanted to tell you. I buried the prescriptions that Doctor Qi prescribed for me, and the dregs of the last few medicines I took in the big tree in the woods closest to the yard. Under the tree. Although Dr. Qi has always been kind to me, at that time I was suspicious of everything, so I hid the things. I thought, if there is a chance in the future, if I meet a noble person, maybe these things will come in handy. "
Long Er replied "Yes", kissed her on the forehead, and watched her fall asleep.
Before dawn, Li Ke took people to the backyard of the wine shop. After Han Xiao got up early in the morning, the old prescription and medicine residue from more than two years ago were placed in front of her.
These things were wrapped layer by layer with paper, then packed in clean small wine jars, sealed with mud, and buried in deep soil. Although it has been a long time, it is still well preserved.
Han Xiao read the prescription carefully, washed the medicine residues, and looked at each one carefully, and found nothing wrong with it, but two of the medicines caught her attention. She sat in the room thinking hard for a day, and discussed with Nie Chengyan for half a day, and then she left the Dragon Mansion and walked to several medicine shops. After she figured everything out, she came to look for Long Er.
At that time, Long Er was talking to Ju Mu'er. She had just taken medicine, drank half a bowl of porridge, and with Long Er's approval, she also met Su Qing who came to see her every day but couldn't see her. As soon as she was in a good mood, Ju Muer's spirit improved a lot, and she was able to sit on the bedside for a while.
Seeing Han Xiao come in, Long Er still held those old prescriptions in his hand, he already understood what she was going to say, so he sent everyone out.
Han Xiao got straight to the point: "I think, I have figured out how he did it."
"Conjecture?"
"Yes, it's just speculation." Han Xiao put the prescription and the medicine package on the table, "Before I explain my speculation, I still have a few questions for my wife."
Ju Muer nodded: "Please tell me."
"When did that Doctor Qi start treating your eye diseases?"
"Before I went blind, it was more than a year." She thought about it and turned to Long Er, "Dr. Qi was showing me my eyes half a year before Mr. Shi's execution."
"More than a year?" Han Xiao seemed a little surprised, but she quickly asked, "Is your diet the same as that of your family? Are they suffering from any abnormalities?"
Ju Muer shook her head: "The family members are all in good health, and we all eat and drink the same."
Han laughed and said: "Then I can't think of any other possibility, only the method I guessed is the most feasible. Second Master, Madam, as I said, the poison on Madam's body is almost undetectable, if the previous doctors did not use all the healing methods However, I will not quickly rule out other possibilities and speculate on the poison. The poison is difficult to find out, and it is impossible to be sure just by looking at the pulse. The wife has been poisoned for a long time, and neither I nor my family have noticed it. There must be five points."
Han Xiao raised his fingers: "First, this poison is weak and slow in action, so that people can't be aware of it; second, because of its weak and slow toxicity, it must be put in long-term food and drink. For example, if the poison is long-term Take the medicine, put it in the medicine; third, the poison has no abnormal taste that makes people suspicious. Based on this, it is really not easy for people to detect when it is put in the medicine; fourth, when the toxicity occurs, if the poisoner is not suspicious , then it happens that it happens to be sick, and the symptoms cover up the poison; fifth, the whole process must ensure that no doctor diagnoses it. If the poisoner is the doctor of the poisoner, then this matter will be easy to handle. "
Neither Long Er nor Ju Muer interrupted, and listened carefully.
Han laughed and said, "Madam can do all five of these things. But there is one thing I haven't figured out."
"What is it?"
"Time." Han Xiao pointed to the prescription, "There is indeed something wrong with this prescription, but after more than a year, Madam shouldn't just be blind. One year is enough to kill her."
Ju Muer closed her eyes, she really didn't want to believe that the kind doctor Qi would poison her. She was panting, but still said clearly: "What if you only took the poison for half a year?"
"If it's less than half a year, then blindness is very likely. But the degree is difficult to grasp. To put it simply, it is not sure how long it will be fatal according to the toxicity in this prescription. Maybe half a year, maybe more than half a year. It depends on the individual patient.”
"What kind of poison is it?" Long Er, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.
"Strictly speaking, it seems to be poisonous but not poisonous." Han Xiao picked up the prescription, pointing to two of them, and said, "Both clamgrass and fish eye leaves are good prescriptions for eyes, but the effects of the two medicines are similar, so Usually, only one of the two is good for prescribing medicine, but in this prescription, all of them are used. According to common sense, doctors are eager to seek good medicine, and it is not wrong to add a good medicine. But there are so many ancient prescriptions, and there is no one in my impression. This kind of combination is recommended by my son. But I remembered later that it is recorded in the Poison Classics that if the addition of clamgrass, fish eye leaves and another common herb exceeds a certain amount, it will be poisonous. But the toxicity is weak, and it is harmless if it is not eaten regularly. .”
Long Er heard the name of the herbal medicine that Han Xiao said, and looked at the prescription, and it was indeed there, so he asked Han Xiao and said, "You mean, if you want to cure your eyes, you can use ten bell grass or Yumuye leaf, but can you use it as a medicine?" The addition of the two, combined with another medicine on the top, is it poisonous?"
Han smiled and nodded.
"Since it is a certainty, why is it a guess?"
"I speculate because from the prescription, there is no problem. As I said just now, the addition of these three medicines requires more than a certain amount to be toxic. The amount written in the prescription is too small to cause any problems. "Han Xiao said as he opened the medicine bag she brought, "This is the medicine residue left by my wife two years ago. This is the medicine I picked up according to the prescription. Second Master, please look, these are Yumu leaves, which are actually all crushed powder, and after cooking, there is no way to see how much weight was left in the medicine residue."
Long Er leaned over to look, Ju Muer's heart was pounding.
There was indeed no fish eye leaf powder in the medicine dregs, Long Er read it carefully and understood what Han Xiao meant.
Han Xiao said: "In this freshly brewed medicine, I actually put fish eye leaf powder three times more than the prescription, but I can't see it from the medicine dregs at all. My guess is this. The medicine dregs and the prescription There is no problem on the surface, but if you use your hands and feet when decocting the medicine, within a year, it can indeed kill someone."
"So my blindness is the proof of the poison, and I didn't die because Doctor Qi didn't let me drink the medicine anymore."
Han Xiao nodded: "It is indeed possible. You have an eye disease, the poison changes your physique, and you will be blind first. If you continue to take the poison, your life will be in danger."
Ju Muer was silent, Long Er squeezed her hand, knowing what she was thinking. This doctor Qi saw a doctor first, and Mr. Shi's unjust case came later. The murderer found Dr. Qi behind the scene and was able to use this method to commit the crime, it was really terrifyingly meticulous.
Ju Muer thought of Hua Yibai's death. The murderer poisoned her in the same way as he did to Hua Yibai—seamlessly, without evidence.
Ju Muer was thinking deeply, Long Er took advantage of this moment to ask Han Xiao a few more questions, and then sent her out.
Han Xiao walked outside the door and said softly, "Second Master wants to ask if my wife's eyes are okay?"
Long Er was stunned: "It's been a long time, but you've become smarter."
Han Xiao shook his head and smiled: "It's not that I've become smarter, but that the second master, like all the family members of the patients I've come into contact with, usually sends the doctor to the door just to ask such questions."
Long Er smiled wryly: "Then can Mu'er's eyes be healed? Now that you have found out what kind of poison it is, can you cure her?"
"It's been more than two years, it's too late, and I can't guarantee anything. This time, my wife is seriously ill and has internal injuries. She must take good care of her, otherwise there will be endless troubles. Otherwise, I will work hard, and the second master must not be discouraged."
Long Er was a little sad, but still thanked Han Xiao. He took a few deep breaths outside the door, adjusted his mood, and then walked into the house.
After entering the room, Ju Muer smiled and said, "Did the second master go whispering to Dr. Han?"
"Nonsense."
"Did the second master ask Dr. Han if my eyes can still recover?"
Long Er choked.
Ju Mu'er smiled and said, "Doctor Han must not have said that it will be fine, otherwise the Second Lord would not have come in pretending to be indifferent."
"Okay, okay." Long Er got angry, went to help her lie down, pinched her nose, "let your head rest for a while."
Ju Muer fell asleep, Ren Longer wrapped himself in a quilt, and then smiled: "Actually, it doesn't matter if I can't see it, because I imagine the second master is the tallest, mighty, handsome, and handsome, if I see it, I will be disappointed. it is good?"
Long Er stared: "Are you comforting Grandpa?"
Ju Muer was amused by his tone and giggled. After laughing, she held his hand and said seriously, "Second Master, what do you think about this?"
Long Er knew what she was asking, so he replied: "Shi Zechun's family was exterminated. The timing was right. He arranged to take the place of the dead ghost, leave witnesses and physical evidence, and be able to control the trial of the case and erase all doubts. Although he couldn't control Your Majesty, Shi Boyin gave Shi Boyin the opportunity to convey his message with the qin, but generally speaking, there is no flaw in the whole matter. And he killed Hua Yibai even more neatly, and he did it very covertly when he attacked you. If it wasn't for Xiaoxiao It happened to arrive, and you happened to be on the verge of death. I am afraid that no one will notice the poisoning, and it is useless for you to leave the prescription and medicine residue. This person is thoughtful, calm and cruel."
Ju Muer nodded: "Everything should be seamless, but there are two things that are done stupidly."
"Letting bandits and bandits rob you before marriage is just adding to the snake and asking for trouble. It is even more stupid to rob Ding Yanshan."
Ju Mu'er agreed with Long Er's statement: "That incident not only made me vigilant and acted carefully, but also provoked Mao Ding's family. Once Ding's family investigates, the matter may be exposed."
"It not only offended the Ding family, but also offended my Long family. Although everyone didn't find out anything in the end, this matter was indeed done improperly. It's just unnecessary and asking for trouble."
Ju Muer said: "The weird thing is that Lin Yueyao, she led someone to kill me, she should be safe, even though she was successfully attacked by me, but if she called outside helpers in, I would definitely die. But she didn't do that , She seems to want to kill me with her own hands. That kind of hatred is the hatred of women against women." She paused, "I think, I know who is behind the scenes."
Long Er held her hand tightly: "I know too."
