Northern River Sword

Everyone discussed until noon, and went to eat one after another.Su Yi deliberately wanted to curry favor with Xue Hongliao, so he went to the kitchen to grab a food box, and went to deliver the food to her himself.Xue Hongliu was not seriously injured, he was already sitting by the window.Qiao'er was sitting next to her, she didn't know what to say, both of them were laughing.

Su Yi brought the food box in. The food box had three layers. The first layer contained a cup of rock sugar osmanthus bird's nest soup, and the plates contained a few pieces of yam jujube cake, Poria cocos clips and other medicinal foods.The lower two floors were opened, and the hot aroma rushed to the face. There was a bowl of pork heart soup stewed with angelica and wolfberry, a plate of stir-fried cabbage heart, steamed egg with Jiangyaozhu, roasted eggplant with wine fermented meat and a bowl of white rice.

Su Yi took a deep breath of the aroma, and said happily: "Master Qiu said that the leader was injured, so he specially asked someone to cook pig heart soup to nourish your heart and soothe your nerves. The dishes are also light, tender and easy to digest. This scallop I ate the steamed egg last night, it was fresh and smooth, and tasted very good, please try it quickly, Master."

Xue Hongliao picked up the chopsticks and said: "Master Qiu is really considerate to people, not only has soup, but also boiled bird's nest."

Su Yi and Qiao'er didn't recognize the bird's nest, they looked at each other in blank dismay.Qiao'er said, "Where is there?"

Xue Hongliao pointed: "This bowl."

Su Yi suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is bird's nest. I thought that the white porridge cooked by rich families looked like this."

Xue Hongliao smiled and said: "I can't drink this much soup by myself, let Qiaoer eat this cup of bird's nest."

Qiao'er was flattered, she heard the storyteller mentioned bird's nest, and she felt that it was on the same level as dragon liver and phoenix marrow, and after eating it, she could almost fly up in the daytime.Where did she dare to eat, she shook her hands and said: "No, no, I waste such a precious thing, so I should help the master eat it."

Xue Hongliu had no appetite, drank the pig heart soup, picked up the cabbage heart and ate a few mouthfuls, then put down the chopsticks and said with a smile: "I'm full, you can drink it for me. I still want to sleep, you guys Go and rest too."

Su Yi and Qiaoer glanced at each other, Su Yi said: "The leader is kind, so you don't have to be polite." Then he packed up the food box, went out with Qiaoer to cover the door, and sat under the grape arbor in the yard.Qiao'er held the bird's nest and took a sip cautiously, her eyes bent into two crescent moons.

Su Yi said: "What's the smell?"

Qiaoer's face was full of happiness, and said: "Sweet, soft, smooth, and sweet-scented osmanthus."

Su Yi licked his tongue, Qiao Er handed it over and said, "Try it."

Su Yi was reluctant to compete with her for expensive food, and said: "I know, this is for nourishing yin, women will be young after eating it, and men will be worse after eating it - if I take a sip, I will be very obedient, and when I turn around, I will change. You've become a big girl!"

Qiaoer smiled and said: "You seem to treat me better than before, and you will love others."

Su Yi puffed up his chest and said, "You saved my life last night. I, Su Daxia, stand above heaven and earth. I always repay the kindness of a drop of water. If there is any delicious food or drink, I will naturally make offerings to you first."

Seeing that he knew how to appreciate him, Qiao'er was very upset, and proudly said: "It's good that you know."

Su Yi thought about what happened last night, and said thoughtfully: "Speaking seriously, there is one thing that I find very strange. Last night, that man had a chance to kill me, but he didn't do it for some reason. That man should be a murderer. Blinking demon, why did you hesitate at that time?"

Qiao'er looked at him like a fool, and said: "You are not thankful for not killing you! Maybe he thinks people are afraid of being entangled, or he was struck by lightning and made him stupid. You don't care about him so much!"

Su Yi thought so in his heart at the time, and felt that since Qiaoer said the same thing, then he should be considered stupid by being struck by lightning.

Qiao'er held the bird's nest and whispered, slowly enjoying the taste of being a queen.Su Yi picked up a piece of yam and jujube paste cake and wanted to eat it, but felt that he ate too much last night and felt greasy in his stomach, so he put it back.

He got up and said, "Eat slowly, I'll relieve you."

Qiaoer agreed, Su Yi went to the latrine and came out rubbing his stomach after emptying out the stock for a long time. He was feeling relaxed when he raised his eyes and saw Qiaoer lying down under the grape trellis, foaming at the mouth, and was already unconscious.

Su Yi was taken aback, rushed forward and shouted: "Qiaoer, Qiaoer, wake up, what's wrong with you!"

Qiao'er's breathing was weak, her limbs twitched slightly, and she seemed to be dying.Xue Hongliu heard the voice and ran out, seeing Qiaoer like this, she lost her voice and said: "What's going on... this is poisoned, call the doctor quickly! No, it's too late, send it to Elder Su for first aid first!" Su Ti understood Medical theory, if he can rescue before the doctor arrives, Qiaoer's life can be saved.

Su Yi carried Qiao'er on his back and ran away, Xue Hongliu was the first to look for someone, but before he reached the front yard, he heard people shouting, wondering what happened in the west chamber.Xue Hongliao grabbed a servant and asked, "Is there a doctor in the house? Someone has been poisoned, call the doctor quickly!"

The man hurriedly said: "There is no doctor at home, the master has already gone to ask for it in person."

Xue Hongliu was a little strange, and said: "How did Master Qiu know that our people were poisoned?"

The family member was surprised and said: "What are you guys? It's the young master of the Xie family who was poisoned, foaming at the mouth and beating his head, lying down in the west wing."

The man said that he was about to leave, Xue Hongliao said: "What about Elder Su?"

The man said: "It's also in the West Wing, giving Master Xie an injection."

Su Yi heard it, and ran to the west chamber with Qiao'er on his back.Something happened to Xie Beihan, and the West Wing was full of people.Su Yi shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" He cut his way out of the crowd and hissed, "Master, don't worry about that son, come and save Qiao'er!"

Hearing the sound, Su Ti rushed out, but Su Yi didn't have time to find a bed, so she laid Qiao'er flat in the sun, and cried, "Master, save people quickly! It's too late!"

Everyone in the Xie family saw that Su Yi had blatantly called the lifesaver away, and they all became anxious, and one of them stepped forward and said, "Hey, what's the matter with you kid, our young master is in danger, and you're robbing him of the doctor, don't you know how to be sensible?" Already!"

Su Yi said coldly: "Mr. Xie is human life, and so is little beggar. If you feel sorry for your young master, you can exchange your life with him. If you don't want to, don't be generous with other people's generosity! Ask my sister to give her life to make way for him , don't think about it!"

The man was beaten up, and he couldn't hold back his face. He raised his fist and wanted to beat Su Yi.Xue Hongliu suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Su Yi, and with a flip of his palm, he pushed the man lightly.

Xue Hongliao said: "This is the Qiu Family Village, not the Xie Mansion, please respect yourself."

Standing at the door, Xie Biao frowned slightly when he saw Xue Hongliao taking action to teach his servants a lesson.Xie Beihan was pierced with silver needles in several places, and had already been induced to vomit once. Although he was still weak, his life was finally saved.

Su Ti asked someone to mix ginger juice with salt water and pour it down to Qiaoer. Qiaoer vomited a few times, straightened up, turned over and vomited out all the soup in her stomach.The sour smell rose up in the courtyard, but Su Ti danced happily and said, "Master, can you just spit it out?"

Su Ti said: "This is just first aid. Her body has already absorbed some poison, and she still needs to wait for the doctor to detoxify it." She then stabbed several acupuncture points on her body with silver needles, and gently twisted and pulled them.Su Yi had just seen her twitching all over, and felt like falling into an ice cave, as if he was going to die and didn't have such a big fear.

Qiaoer is different from those cowardly and timid young ladies, she has always lived a solid life, and he only hopes that Qiaoer can also live well this time.At this time, Qiu Guangcheng and the doctor arrived, and the servants of Xie's family wanted to snatch him into the house again.Su Yi refused to let her go, and shouted: "Show it to my sister first!"

The doctor was a little hesitant, Xie Biao relied on his identity, and said calmly: "It's okay, let's show this little girl first."

The doctor wiped off the profuse sweat from his brow, first looked at Qiaoer's eyelids, then his tongue, and felt for his pulse.The doctor looked at the few silver needles, stroked his beard and said: "The silver needles were inserted in Shangwan, Zhongwan, Tianshu, and Yinjiao to preserve the liver and spleen, and she vomited again. Her life is not seriously affected. I prescribed a detoxification medicine for her. The medicine, take it first."

Su Yi listened to the doctor's words and left room for it, so he said anxiously: "What do you mean eat and see first? You are always not sure how to cure her?"

The doctor said: "The patient is foaming at the mouth, his limbs are twitching, and his breathing and pulse are weak. It should be the silver snake saliva, or it may be the April lotus. These two kinds of drugs are similar, so it is difficult to distinguish. What did she eat before?" ?”

Su Yi said: "After eating a bowl of bird's nest, there is still some left, I'll show you!"

He ran to the East Wing, picked up the broken bowl under the grape arbor, and there was still some leftovers in it.When Su Yi took it back, the doctor had already gone to show it to Xie Beihan, Xie's family said that the young master passed out after lunch.The meal of his father and son was together, Xie Biao was busy and delayed the meal, so he escaped the catastrophe.

The doctor had seen the bird's nest, went up to sniff it, pondered for a long time and said, "April lotus is colorless and odorless, silver snake saliva has a slightly sour taste, and its color is light yellow. Judging from the leftovers, it is colorless and odorless, it should be It’s Siyuelian. Now that I know □□, it’s easy to handle.” The doctor asked someone to take a pen and paper, and prescribed a prescription for people to fry it.

When He Ruying got the news, he rushed to the West Chamber, asked about the situation, and was relieved when he learned that both of them had been rescued, and said, "Who poisoned you, we must investigate thoroughly!"

Xie Biao said coldly: "Si Yue Lian is widely circulated in Jianghu, and it is easy to get. Even a servant can poison it. There are so many people in the Qiu family village, how to investigate?"

He Ruying said: "I only put it in the bird's nest of Chief Xue and the food of Xie's family, which narrowed the scope of suspicion by more than half. Call the kitchen steward, and list the people who have been to the kitchen at noon. check."

Su Yi said: "I have been to the kitchen. I went to fetch food for Chief Xue. When I went, Xie's food had already been taken away. I had no chance to touch Xie's food. Even if I planted the poison in the bird's nest, thank you It is impossible for the young master to be poisoned by the same poison."

He Ruying glanced at him, and Su Ti said: "Of course you won't poison. Who will fetch Xie's food?"

A companion of the Xie family said: "The villain and the young master went to get it together. The young master met Elder Su on the road and stopped to talk to him, so I went to pick up the food first. At that time, there was only the chef in the kitchen. I I didn't even enter the kitchen, I picked up the food box outside the door and left, and when I went back, I saw that the young master was still waiting for me, so we went back to the West Wing together."

He Ruying said: "Elder Su, is there such a thing?"

Su Ti said: "That's right, I ran into Mr. Xie on the road, said a few words, and then I went back to my room for dinner."

He Ruying said: "In other words, the poison has been dropped before Xie's family went to pick up the food. Apart from these two, who else has been to the kitchen before you know it by asking the cook. Where is the chef?"

Qiu Guangcheng said: "I have already sent someone to call—" Before he finished speaking, he saw a young servant stumbling towards him with a terrified expression on his face, and hurriedly said: "It's bad, it's terrible! Cook Li, he... …he……!"

Everyone had an ominous premonition, Qiu Guangcheng said, "What happened to Chef Li?"

The servant trembled and said: "Cook Li is dead, he used a kitchen knife... woo..." He wanted to vomit, covered his mouth and retched a few times, and said after a long time, "He is holding a kitchen knife in his hand, and the wound is on his chest. Come on. The blood is all over the place, it's so scary."

Qiu Guangcheng's face changed greatly, and he scolded: "Nonsense, he lived a good life, how could he commit suicide!"

The young man knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said: "It's true, master, go and see, the villain will never dare to talk nonsense." Although Qiu Guangcheng didn't believe it, he had already strode out.Seeing that the situation was bizarre, everyone also rushed to the kitchen.
