Chapter 102 The Poison of the Grass of Fear and Illusion
"Your Highness, I have no choice." Then Mammy Chen waved the stick in her hands.
"No choice? I am going to leave now, but I wonder if you dare to hit me with this stick!" Yang Zijin got angry at this time, staring at Mammy Chen.
At this moment, Li Mingzi, on the side, shouted again, "Mammy Chen, what are you waiting for? Just punish her. I will be responsible for that."
"Yes, Your Ladyship!" Mammy Chen hesitated for a moment but then raised her stick.
However, as soon as she raised the stick, Jiang Wei beat her arm with the stick with only a little strength. They heard a click sound, which was the sound of broken bones. Meanwhile, the stick in Mammy Chen’s hand also fell to the ground.
Mammy Chen wailed in pain at this time, pointing to Yang Zijin with the other hand and said, "You... How dare you..."
"How dare I?" Yang Zijin interrupted her.
Then Yang Zijin stretched out her hand and slapped Mammy Chen. "I think you are the one who needs to learn the rules most. You, a servant, you tell me what to do. Do you want to break your other hand?"
Then Yang Zijin coldly looked at Mammy Chen.
Hearing that, Mammy Chen hurriedly put down her hand which was pointing to her. At this time, she was sweating with pain.
At this moment, Li Mingzi saw that they had not punished Yang Zijin, and she even hurt Mammy Chen. Li Mingzi got angry. She came up to Yang Zijin, "Qingcheng, are you going too far? Mammy Chen just wants you to learn the rules well. How can you let the servant hurt her?"
"Hurt her? If she dares to do this again next time, I will kill her!"She then turned and left.
Mammy Chen was so frightened that she even didn’t dare to hum.
At this moment, Li Mingzi was too furious to speak, "You... You..."
Looking at Yang Zijin going away, Li Mingzi remembered the injured Mammy Chen.
Mammy Chen had been following her for years and had done a lot of things for her, so she let the maid Jinyan to hold the Mammy Chen.
"Mammy Chen, don't have to worry. I won't let you suffer in vain! Come with me to the Lord." Li Mingzi said and then walked to the yard of the Duke of Mu.
After morning exercises, the Duke of Mu was lying in a rocking chair in the courtyard to rest.
Li Mingzi came up with the servants.
"As the Duchesss of the mansion of the duke, why are you crying all the time?" The Duke of Mu saw tears in Li Mingzi's eyes. The face of the mammy behind her was red and swollen, and the mammy also groaned from time to time.
Hearing that, Li Mingzi wiped tears in her eyes with a handkerchief, "My Lord, Qingcheng..."
"What's wrong with Qingcheng?" Heard Li Mingzi talking about Yang Zijin, the Duke of Mu hurriedly asked.
Seeing the Duke of Mu's reaction, Li Mingzi said, "Qingcheng has just followed Mammy Chen to learn etiquette and has yet to learn it well. She wants to leave. Mammy Chen stopped her, but Qingcheng actually let the servant beat Mammy Chen's hand. I would like to persuade her, but Qingcheng not only ignored me, but also pointed to me and said that if anyone stood in her way, she would also beat her."
Of course, Mammy Chen's hand was indeed broken, but Li Mingzi exaggerated here.
"How dare she! How dare she!" After hearing that, the Duke of Mu could not help being angry!
Then he asked Li Mingzi, "Do you know where she is now?"
"My Lord, after saying that, Qingcheng went straight away. She would not tell us where she went." Li Mingzi said and wiped away the tears with a handkerchief again, as if she was innocent.
Looking at Li Mingzi, the Duke of Mu couldn't help being upset. "Well, don't cry anymore. Let her come to me when she comes back."
"Yes, My Lord. Then I'll take Mammy Chen to bind up her wound." Li Mingzi thought it was time to finish complaining.
She hoped that Mammy Chen would not be suffered in vain, so that at least there would be a gap between the Duke of Mu and Yang Zijin.
The Duke of Mu motioned with his hand, and Li Mingzi walked out of the courtyard with the servants.
The Duke of Mu stayed there alone to ponder. Qingcheng had a good command of etiquette both at her reception and at the birthday party held by Grand Preceptor Li.
Why was she like this at home? Maybe she could not accept Li Mingzi. It seems that when she comes back, he should have a good talk with her.
...
In the Blossoming Peach.
Yang Zijin saw Xian waiting at the door when she came out. When he saw Yang Zijin coming out, Xian hurried forward, "You are here, Your Highness. Let's go!"
"What’s going on?" Yang Zijin asked.
At this moment, Xian said eagerly, "I can't explain it clearly with a few words. Let's just go and talk simultaneously!"
Yang Zijin nodded, and they walked towards the Blossoming Peach.
Along the way, Yang Zijin heard Xian’s explanation and almost understood. But she still did not know some details, so she decided to ask in person after arriving.
Then she ordered to Xian, "You go back first! I'll invite Uncle Liu to come and see."
"Jiang Wei, you should also follow Xian first. If there are any situations, you can help." Then Yang Zijin said to Jiang Wei.
After saying that, she ran towards Uncle Liu's clinic. She only hoped that Uncle Liu was at home and did not travel!
While Mu Yunong was staying in the mansion of Duke Mu, she heard the voice in Yang Zijin’s yard. She knew that the two children she met yesterday had been poisoned. She sneered and thought that Yang Zijin would not dare to be so close to the Princess and Empress.
However, for some reasons, there was another kind of uneasiness in her heart that she could not say.
Qiao Shu, who had been paying attention to Yang Zijin, could not help but feel happy. Mu Yunong was too timid, but it was not too late to make trouble in the Blossoming Peach. Yang Zijin, even if you were the infanta. If the children were killed and you did not treat it well, you would be to blame by people. Then you could not seduce Shuo Ling anymore.
...
Sure enough, the most worrying thing has happened.
Yang Zijin ran into Uncle Liu's clinic and shouted, "Uncle Liu, Uncle Liu."
"Why are you calling my Mentor so early in the morning?" Mo Shang was sleeping and was woken up by Yang Zijin. He rubbed his eyes, sat up, and said.
Seeing Mo Shang still lying in bed, Yang Zijin knew it was not good. If Uncle Liu were at home, Mo Shang would not dare to sleep until now, but she still asked him, "Mo Shang, where is Uncle Liu?"
"Mentor has been traveling for several days." Mo Shang said and yawned again.
Hearing that, Yang Zijin was upset like a deflated balloon. What should I do now? What should I do?
So Yang Zijin pulled up Mo Shang, who was about to lie down again and said, "Hurry up. Hurry up. Two lives are waiting for someone to save. Uncle Liu is not at home, so you will follow me to see first!"
"Well, OK." Looking at the worried expression of Yang Zijin, Mo Shang hurriedly got up from the bed.
He took the medicine cabinet, and followed Yang Zijin to the Blossoming Peach.
At this point, the girls in the Blossoming Peach were all around the backyard, looking worried.
Xian had people put up a sign at the door saying that it was closed today.
Yang Zijin and Mo Shang went straight to the backyard. Seeing Yang Zijin come over, the girls breathed a sigh of relief. Just now they looked down the door, and the two children looked terrible!
"Where are they?" Yang Zijin asked.
"In Xian's house."
After hearing that, Yang Zijin took Mo Shang to Xian's house.
Entering the room, a man and a woman were crying around the bed. They must be the parents of the children. Yang Zijin was shocked to see the two children like this. It seemed much more serious than she imagined!
Mo Shang also put down the medicine cabinet, walked to the bed, and looked at the two children who curled up in the corner.
At this moment, Yang Zijin stepped forward and said to the crying parents, "Don't cry now. You can't solve the problem if you are crying here all the time. I have heard about the situation. Since the children were ill here, we will pay the responsibility!"
"Your Highness, these two children are all of my life. Please save them!" Mrs. Li was still crying at this moment.
Seeing that it was useless to persuade them, Yang Zijin had to get up and look at Mo Shang. She asked, "How is it going? What’s the matter?"
"These two children are not sick, but poisoned." Mo Shang frowned slightly at this time.
After hearing that, all the people here were shocked, "Poisoned?"
"Who would poison two children?"
At this moment, everyone looked at Mo Shang simultaneously.
"Yes, Mentor has told me about this poison, but I can't remember it for a while." Mo Shang said, patting his head with his hand.
Seeing that, Yang Zijin said quickly, "Mo Shang, it doesn't matter. I'll ask everyone to go out first, so that you can calm down and think about it!"
Then Mo Shang nodded.
Yang Zijin turned to Li Dazhu and his wife and said, "Let's go out first and let the doctor stay and think about it."
"No, I don't want to leave my children. How can my children be poisoned? They were healthy before!" Mrs. Li started to cry even harder when she heard that her children were poisoned.
At this moment, Yang Zijin got a little angry and said loudly, "All of us are sorry to see children being injured. Now the doctor has found out the reason, so we should allow him to calm down and find a way. If you are still crying and making a lot of noises here, children will be saved later. Just think about it."
Then Yang Zijin walked out of the room. Xian and the teacher in the school also came out.
Mrs. Li began to cry in a low voice after hearing that.
"Mother, Her Highness is right. Let's go out first. We can do nothing here!" At this moment, Li Dazhu persuaded his wife.
Mrs. Li just nodded.
Not long after they came out, Li Dazhu helped his wife out. Then Yang Zijin was released.
At this moment, Yang Zijin approached Liu Ye and asked, "When the children were in school, what did they do? Did they meet any strangers?"
"No, the children had dinner and played together, and few people came to the school." Liu Ye thought for a while and said.
Hearing Liu Ye's remarks, Yang Zijin turned to Li Dazhu again and asked, "After school, did you pick up the children or did you let the children go back by themselves?"
"Because the school is not far from home, so I ask the two children to walk back by themselves. If I knew it would happen, I would pick them up." Li Dazhu regretted and beat himself at this time.
Hearing that, Yang Zijin already knew that someone must have taken advantage of the loophole and drugged the child when they were leaving school.
So she said to Li Dazhu and his wife, "Don't worry. I will investigate the matter."
At this moment, Mo Shang in the room opened the door and waved to Yang Zijin.
Yang Zijin ran in quickly and asked Mo Shang, "What kind of poison have this child been poisoned?"
"These two children were poisoned by the grass of fear and illusion." Mo Shang said with a sigh.
"The grass of fear and illusion?"
"Yes, this poison is different from ordinary poisons. The poisoned people were scared to death by the consciousness in their minds." Mo Shang explained it to Yang Zijin.
"Scared to death by themselves?" Yang Zijin was surprised when she heard that.
Mo Shang nodded and continued, "This poison will enlarge the fears in the human minds over time. Any delay will cause that the lives of the tow kids become shorter."
"Is there an antidote to this poison?" Yang Zijin hurriedly asked.
Mo Shang first nodded and then shook.
"What does it mean?" Yang Zijin asked and frowned.
At this moment, Mo Shang sighed and said, "I'm not sure. I heard my Mentor say it before, but it was years ago!"
"What did Uncle Liu say?" Hearing that from Mo Shang, Yang Zijin asked quickly.
