Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 30
Chapter 030 Cut off Her Right Arm
The night gradually darkened, and the White Mansion was completely silent.
Suddenly, the courtyard was filled with noise. Lights suddenly lit up in Bai Juntao’s courtyard. Immediately after, the other courtyards awoke from their silence.
Bai Junzhuo woke up from his dream and heard apricot knocking on the door, “Miss, wake up quickly. Something happened to the eldest miss.”
Hearing this, Bai Junzhuo remembered the medicine he had given Bai Juntao during the day and calmly said, “What are you panicking about? You can’t die.”
She put on her clothes and went out, followed by Xingzi.
The two arrived at Bai Juntao’s residence and saw Madam Zou standing in front of Bai Juntao’s bed with a gloomy face.
Bai Juntao was covering her face with her palm, suppressing the tears in her throat.
Bai Junzhuo was at a loss as he hurriedly went forward and asked, “Big sister, what happened to you?”
Bai Juntao looked at Bai Junzhuo in horror and shrank back into the corner. Bei He, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly hugged Madam Zou’s leg and cried, “Old Lady, you must make the decision for the eldest young miss!”
“You are loyal to the Lord. Don’t you want to see if there’s anything you can say here?” Madam Zou glanced coldly at Bihe and then turned to look at Bai Junzhuo. “Zhuo’er, go and see what happened to your eldest sister.”
“Yes.” Bai Junzhuo smiled meaningfully at Bai Juntao.
Bai Juntao seemed to be very afraid of her. She shook her head and sobbed, “No … no, grandma, I don’t want to …”
“Zhuo’er is the best doctor in our Bai Clan. Let her have a look.” Madam Zou looked at Bai Juntao and said.
Bai Juntao’s words were stuck in her throat. Seeing Madam Zou’s situation, she could only stretch out her arm and Bai Junzhuo took her pulse.
Everyone in the Bai Clan was skilled in medicine, so they naturally knew what was going on with Bai Juntao. Hence, Bai Junzhuo did not conceal anything. He pretended to press his pulse for a while and said, “Big Sister was poisoned by Chiyan San. If Chiyan San came into contact with the outside, it would invade the inside. Where did Big Sister come into contact with Chiyan San?”
Looking at Bai Juntao covering her face all the time, she knew that her face was in contact, but Bai Junzhuo stared at her eyes filled with hatred, looking puzzled.
“Tao’er, show Zhuo’er your face.”
“Grandma” Bai Juntao shook her head, her eyes full of tears.
“Big sister, show me the extent of the erosion of the Crimson Flame Powder. Only then can I apply the medicine and cure your poison.” Bai Junzhuo curled his lips in a very unkind manner. The angle was just right, causing Bai Juntao to feel even more resentment in her heart.
“Tao’er, you don’t want this face anymore!” Mrs. Zou’s voice rose by one degree, and Bai Juntao could only put her hands down.
Bai Juntao’s entire face was festering, and there were several large pustules. There were yellow scabs around the pustules, and a few of them were even broken, flowing out with pus. Standing around her, one could smell an unbearable stench.
Bai Junzhuo mercilessly took two steps back and pinched his nose. “Big sister, why are you so careless? It’s so serious. Even if you recover, you’ll still have a scar on your face.”
Bai Juntao looked at her angrily, but it was hard to say anything. She looked pitifully at Mrs. Zou, who was also uncomfortable from this aura and frowned slightly.
“Old Madam, you must make the decision for Eldest Young Miss!” Bihe shouted again and pulled Mrs. Zou, “Apart from welcoming the third young miss this morning, the eldest young miss stayed in the room for the rest of the time. How could she be infected with this kind of poison? The eldest young miss only contacted the third young miss. It must be the third young miss who did something to the eldest young miss!”
Madam Zou didn’t say anything. Bai Juntao continued to cry, “Sister, I’ve always treated you well. I’ve never thought of arguing with you for my honesty. Why do you treat me like this?”
Bai Junzhuo looked at Madam Zou. Madam Zou’s expression was indifferent. He didn’t seem to believe what Bai Juntao said, but he wanted to hear Bai Junzhuo’s explanation.
Bai Junzhuo said, “I’ve always known what big sister treats me. I’m not a wolf-hearted person. I still want to harm her if others treat me well. Big sister, you can’t trust the words of the maidservant and suspect me! I think this maidservant is afraid of the chaos in the world and wants to provoke my relationship with big sister, right?”
Bihe was stunned. She didn’t expect that the spearhead would suddenly turn towards her.
“Big Sister,” Bai Junzhuo didn’t give Bihe time to react. “This maid said that you only contacted me, but hasn’t anyone in your peach courtyard contacted Big Sister? Isn’t this maid the most likely to poison Big Sister every day?”
“You’re spouting blood! This servant and the young miss are our own!” Bi He hurriedly retorted.
Bai Junzhuo laughed in his heart. This maidservant seemed to be clever, but she didn’t expect that she would dare to say something like “one of her own” without thinking at all.
She suddenly raised her voice, “How dare you! You are just a little maidservant, yet you dare to say that you are one of Elder Sister’s own. What about me? Could it be that my relationship with Elder Sister isn’t comparable to that of a little maidservant you bought from outside?”
Bi He was shouted at like this and realized that she had said something wrong just now. She looked at Bai Juntao helplessly, then immediately looked up at Madam Zou and cried, “Old Lady, this servant didn’t mean that. This servant definitely wouldn’t harm the eldest young miss!”
Bai Junzhuo also knelt down and said to Madam Zou, “Regardless of whether you harmed Eldest Sister or not, it’s an indisputable fact that you provoked our sisterhood. Grandma, do you remember the last time Eldest Sister was poisoned?” This maidservant also tried to frame me. Fortunately, Big Sister and I have deep feelings for each other and did not believe her words. This time it’s like this again … Grandma, leaving such a person beside Big Sister, Zhuo’er really can’t sleep and eat peacefully! ”
“No, no, this servant didn’t … Old Lady, this servant didn’t …”
Bihe’s face turned red from crying, and Bai Junzhuo was worried that she might lose her breath.
When Bai Juntao saw this, she cried and begged, “Grandma, Bi He just said the wrong thing. Grandma wants to be by my side for more than ten years. Please spare her this time.”
Madam Zou remained calm as he listened to these people’s words. His gaze swept over them coldly, and he finally stayed on Bai Junzhuo’s face.
Bai Junzhuo was neither humble nor arrogant. He looked straight at Madam Zou. Finally, Madam Zou said coldly, “Drive this maidservant out of the Bai Manor. I hope she took care of Tao’er and rewarded her with a hundred taels of silver.”
“Old … Old Lady …” Bei He trembled, her words incomplete. Madam Zou waved his hand, and the two granny came in and pulled her out.
‘”Grandma, grandma” Bai Juntao pulled on Mrs. Zou’s sleeve, wanting to plead for her. Mrs. Zou pulled back her sleeve and said, “Instigate the relationship between master and son, be proud of yourself. Originally, I sold her again for your sake. I only spared her for your sake. A brainless girl like this would also drag you down by following you!”
Bai Juntao was stunned, somewhat puzzled by Madam Zou’s intentions, but his tears still couldn’t stop.
Originally, when she saw that she had been poisoned, her first reaction was not to cure herself, but to seize the opportunity to frame Bai Junzhuo. However, she did not expect that she would lose her right arm-like Jade Lotus because of this. Forget about how troublesome it was.
She lowered her eyes in disgust, but the hands hidden under the quilt clenched their fists tightly, and the palms of her hands were pinched.
“Alright, Zhuo’er, the maidservant has also dealt with it. Get up and prescribe some medicine for your eldest sister to cure her face.” Madam Zou gently stomped the cane in his hand and said to Bai Junzhuo.
Xingzi hurriedly helped Bai Junzhuo up. Bai Junzhuo glanced at Bai Juntao’s face and said, “At this level, big sister needs to eat the toad raw. One toad a day can cure the poison for seven days in a row.” With the snake gall, there would definitely be no scar in a month’s time. “If Big Sister is worried that her skin will become loose and brown after being healed, she will stew the scorpion and mutton together to beautify and nurture her face. She can also keep her body from becoming fat.”
Toad, snake gall, scorpion … Bai Juntao’s eyebrows twisted into a rope, did Bai Junzhuo intentionally mess with her?
Mrs. Zou understood the pharmacology and nodded. “There are no flaws in this prescription,” she said to Bai Juntao. “Tao’er, endure it for your face.”
Bai Juntao wanted to cry without tears and almost gritted her teeth.
At this moment, someone came in from outside and said to Madam Zou, “Old Lady, all the items that the young miss came into contact with today have been examined. The poison was applied to this handkerchief.”
When Bai Junzhuo heard this, he was suddenly shocked. Madam Zou actually sent people to investigate what Bai Juntao had come into contact with?
Bai Juntao looked at the handkerchief that she had given Bai Junzhuo this morning to wipe his sweat! Bai Juntao immediately became spirited and sat up straight and said to Mrs. Zou, “Someone actually put poison on my handkerchief, Grandma …”
Madam Zou took the handkerchief and said to Bai Juntao, “Don’t worry, I will make the decision for you. In this Bai Clan, no one can do anything wrong in front of me!”
Bai Junzhuo panicked, but there was nothing on his face. Xingzi secretly tugged at the corner of Bai Junzhuo’s clothes … Old Lady, could it be that they were the ones who planted the poison?
Bai Junzhuo thought for a moment and secretly patted Xingzi’s hand, signaling for her not to panic or reveal herself.
After Madam Zou finished looking at the handkerchief, someone immediately brought a basin of water. After Madam Zou washed his hands, he ordered, “Someone, search all the courtyards for me one by one.”
“Yes!” The servant accepted the order.
Apricot clenched the corner of Bai Junzhuo’s clothes tightly again, his entire heart reaching his throat. If he were to be found out …
She did not know what Bai Junzhuo had thought of. After hearing that he was going to search their courtyard, she did not panic at all. Instead, she calmly patted the back of her hand and comforted her.
Bai Juntao glanced at Bai Junzhuo proudly. Although she did not know why the handkerchief had returned to her hand and changed from the poison of the Fire Phoenix Powder to the more potent Crimson Flame Powder, she was sure that Bai Junzhuo was the only one who wanted to harm her. If Grandma found out that she had poisoned her, she would definitely have good fruit to eat!
Now, just wait to watch the show.
Not long after, the people who went to search the yards returned. One of them came over with a large box of medicine and said to Madam Zou, “Old Lady, this was all found in Third Miss’ yard!”
Bai Junzhuo explained calmly, “Grandma also knows that Zhuo’er usually likes to study medicine.”
Mrs. Zou did not say anything. She looked at the person holding the medicine box and said, “Go and see if there is Chi Yan San inside.”
Xingzi clutched the corner of his clothes tightly and broke out in cold sweat. She had already seen the bottle of poison that Bai Jun had burned in this box!
