Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 312
Chapter 312 Qing Mo Fainted
However, her voice could not stop the assassin’s footsteps.
Seeing that the dagger was only half an inch away from Yun Maozhe’s chest, a gust of wind came from behind him.
The palm wind was fierce and swift. If he didn’t dodge in time, he would probably be injured.
Following his heart, the doctor immediately turned around and withdrew his dagger.
Yun Maozhe was also scared out of his wits when he escaped from the tiger’s mouth. However, he couldn’t be afraid now and had to support the Shen Clan.
When Madam Lu saw that Yun Maozhe was fine, she cried out in alarm. She immediately ran over and grabbed Yun Maozhe’s arm and said, “Master, are you alright?”
Yun Maozhe grabbed Madam Lu’s hand and gave her strength. He comforted her softly, “I’m fine. Let’s take a look first. We can’t let anyone enter the house.”
Who knows, there will be others who want to kill his daughter as well.
Thinking of this, Yun Maozhe immediately instructed Chun Lan, who was beside him, to quickly call more guards over and surround this room. No one should be allowed to enter. In addition, inform the governor of the capital to come to the manor to catch the murderer.
Why would anyone want to kill his daughter? The more he thought about it, the more wrong it became.
Chun Lan looked at the lively people in the courtyard with a cold expression. However, she did not dare to hesitate for a moment and immediately ran out from the side.
The doctor was obviously not the opponent of the visitor. In just a few rounds, the doctor was subdued by the visitor. Just as the doctor was about to bite the poison in his mouth and commit suicide, the visitor pointed at the doctor’s acupoint with one hand. He coldly snorted and said, “You can’t die yet.”
The doctor glared at the visitor angrily, but now, he had been pointed at an acupoint and was unable to move at all.
Someone stepped forward and tapped the doctor’s mouth. The doctor couldn’t help but open his mouth and spit out something. Seeing this, he turned around and left. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared. If there wasn’t a doctor standing in the courtyard, everyone would have thought that what had just happened was a flash in the pan.
When Yun Maozhe saw that the person was about to leave, he immediately greeted him and said anxiously, “Benefactor, hold on!”
After they fought for a while, along with the person who left, Yun Maozhe could only see the person wearing a moon-white robe, a slender figure, and a ebony ghost mask on his face. He could not see anything else.
Originally, he wanted to hold back his thanks, but who would have thought that that person would actually turn around and leave? He was truly surprised.
That person did not stop because of Yun Maozhe’s call. In just one breath, his watch disappeared.
At this time, Chun Lan ran in and said respectfully, “Master, this servant has already called the guards to surround the courtyard.”
Yun Maozhe nodded. Madam Lu looked worriedly at the bloody wound on Yun Maozhe’s arm and said worriedly, “Husband, how is your wound? Let me see. I’ll bandage it up for you.”
Originally, Yun Maozhe wanted to say that he was fine, so he didn’t have to pay any attention to it, but seeing Madam Lu’s worried expression, he could only swallow all of these words in the end.
Madam Lu pulled Yun Maozhe to sit down. Chun Lan immediately ran back to her room to get the medicine. As for the medicine chest that the doctor had brought, it was completely ignored. A person who wanted to kill them did not expect the things he brought to save them.
After Madam Lu had bandaged up Yun Maozhe strangely, she heaved a sigh of relief and looked worriedly at the tightly closed door. She still did not know what had happened.
Butler Li wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and ran over nervously. He knelt down anxiously and said, “This servant deserves to die. This servant didn’t see the person clearly and let the killer in.”
Yun Maozhe did not blame him. Butler Li was the one who watched him grow up. He would not doubt Butler Li’s loyalty. Moreover, Xiaoxiao was injured. No one would have noticed that the doctor was fake. If it weren’t for the doctor rushing in, Yun Maozhe and the others wouldn’t have noticed that the doctor was dressed as a killer.
Housekeeper Li said gratefully, “Master, what about this killer now?”
“When the governor of the capital comes, let him take him away. It would be most appropriate for him to hand him over to the government.” Yun Maozhe thought for a moment and immediately said. Looking at the injured people on the ground, his brows furrowed tightly. “Go get another doctor and bring these people down and bandage them properly.”
Housekeeper Li immediately received the order and left with all the wounded people in the courtyard.
Yun Maozhe, Madam Lu and the others also anxiously waited outside, afraid that something would happen to Yun Xiao.
Two hours passed and the governor brought people to the mansion. Neither Yun Xiao nor Qing Mo came out.
Yun Maozhe said a few words to the governor and had the doctor taken away.
In the blink of an eye, everyone’s eyes were fixed on this room.
Someone from the kitchen came in to eat and was pushed down. How could they still have the mood to eat?
Not long after, a clear and cold voice came from inside the room, “Send some more hot water in!”
Hearing that, Chun Lan immediately went with Chun Mei and the others to prepare the hot water. She asked the two mothers to carry the wooden bucket. They carried the water and carefully pushed open the door of the house together. They saw Qing Mo standing behind Yun Xiao, her face pale and her figure was already in a faint falling position.
Seeing this, Chun Lan’s gaze narrowed slightly, and she didn’t dare to disturb him. After getting the water from the bathtub, she said softly, “Qing Mo, you’re ready.”
After Chun Lan and the others left, Qing Mo withdrew his hand. However, his hand trembled slightly. Countless beads of sweat appeared on his delicate face, and his face was even more pale than before.
After gasping for breath, Qing Mo pulled Yun Xiao up and put her into a clean bath tub. However, her own body seemed to be unable to hold on. With a “bang”, she fell to the ground.
Chun Lan, who had just arrived at the door, immediately turned around and saw Qing Mo lying weakly on the ground. She immediately ran in panic and walked to Qing Mo’s side. She anxiously pulled at Qing Mo’s hand and said, “Qing Mo, how are you? Wake up!”
She shouted a few times without getting a response. Madam Lu was also worried, so she ran in. Seeing Yun Xiao sitting in the bathtub, Chun Mei immediately ran to the door and stopped Yun Maozhe. “Master, don’t go in. The girl is not dressed yet.”
Even though Yun Maozhe was his father, he still had to have some taboos.
Yun Maozhe graciously said and immediately retreated.
Madam Lu immediately walked over and saw Qing Mo fainting on the ground. She immediately said, “Chun Lan, quickly help Qing Mo up. Chun Mei, go and see if the doctor is here.”
Chun Mei immediately ran out. Chun Lan also helped Qing Mo up and rested on the chair. She probed Qing Mo’s breathing and felt relieved when she noticed that Qing Mo was still fine.
Chun Lan knew that Qing Mo was trying to help the girl lose her strength. She immediately poured a glass of water and fed it to Qing Mo. After pinching a few more people, Qing Mo finally woke up. However, her face was still pale and the corner of her mouth was completely devoid of blood. She whispered to Chun Lan, “I’m fine, just wash the girl’s body.”
Although she could not force the remaining poison out of Yun Xiao’s body, her life was no longer in great danger. She had to treat Yun Xiao before, and she had to worry about the killers outside. She had already crippled her strength by holding out three silver needles. Now, her body was completely exhausted.
Chun Lan listened and fed some water to Qing Mo again. “Qing Mo, go back and rest first. There will be a doctor later. There will be a doctor watching. The girl will be fine.”
Qing Mo nodded. Her current body, even if she stayed here, was useless. It was better to go back and recover her spirit first.
When Madam Lu saw this, she immediately said, “Chun Lan, send Qing Mo back to rest first.” After Chun Lan and Qing Mo left, Madam Lu and Qiu Shuang cleaned up Yun Xiao together. When they were about to put Yun Xiao to bed, they noticed that the bed was covered in black blood stains.
Mrs. Lu’s face turned pale and the corner of her mouth twitched slightly. She immediately said, “Put on Xiaoxiao’s clothes first. Go to the cabinet and get two sets of clothes.”
Not long after, Chun Mei and Chun Lan also came back. After helping Yun Xiao put on her clothes, she was first placed on the soft couch. She had everyone change all the blankets on the couch before putting Yun Xiao back on the couch.
Seeing that there was no trace of blood on Yun Xiao’s small face, Madam Lu’s face was even more wrinkled. She was extremely worried in her heart, “Hurry up and see if the doctor has come?”
Yun Maozhe just happened to bring the doctor in. Seeing the scene in the room, he frowned. When he saw that the wooden barrels were all black, his expression became even gloomier. He said to Doctor Wang beside him, “Doctor, hurry and see if anything happened to my daughter.” Doctor Wang is a doctor often invited by his family, so he is trustworthy.
Doctor Wang first glanced at the bathtubs that were filled with black. Then, he walked to the bed and took Yun Xiao’s pulse. However, the results of the pulse examination made his brows furrow tightly.
Yun Maozhe was slightly stunned and immediately asked, “Doctor Wang, quickly tell me, what happened to my daughter?”
Doctor Wang let go of Yun Xiao’s wrist. He sighed and cupped his hands at Yun Maozhe. He said apologetically, “Please forgive my clumsiness. I can’t see what happened to the fourth young miss. Looking at the water in the tub, the fourth young miss should be poisoned, but the fourth young miss can’t feel any poison in her body. As for what kind of poison the fourth young miss was infected with, I can’t do anything about it. Please ask Master Yun to hire another expert.”
His words caused Yun Maozhe’s brows to tightly frown, “How is that possible? Doctor Wang really can’t diagnose it?”
Doctor Wang finished writing the prescription, and Yun Maozhe gave him the consultation fee and asked him to leave first. “I can’t diagnose it. Please forgive me, Master Yun. However, Fourth Young Lady’s blood vitality has been greatly damaged. I’ll give you a prescription to replenish your blood first. As for the poison on Fourth Young Lady, please ask Master Yun to be smart.”
After Doctor Wang left, Yun Maozhe looked at Chunmei and Chunlan and said, “Kneel down!”
Chun Mei and Chun Lan looked at each other and immediately knelt down. Their faces were also extremely pale. They also knew that Fourth Young Lady was so seriously ill that Master would definitely get angry. “Please punish Master, it’s because I didn’t take good care of Fourth Young Lady.”
Yun Maozhe looked at Yun Xiao’s pale face again. He was a father who had neglected his duty and didn’t even notice that his daughter was injured. “When did Fourth Young Lady get injured? What poison did she get? Also, who cured the poison from the previous Fourth Young Lady? Do you know?”
Chun Mei and Chun Lan looked at each other. Chun Lan knelt down and took a bite of her head before saying, “I don’t know when the fourth young lady was poisoned. I do know who can cure her illness. Once, I saw Young Noble Rong save her. Young Noble Rong gave her a lot of medicine and let her take it. However, I don’t know why she was poisoned this time.”
Young Master Rong? Rong Jin? How could it be him? Yun Maozhe was slightly stunned and frowned.
Now that Rong Jin was not in the capital, even if he wanted to invite him to treat Yun Xiao, it was impossible.
Moreover, if Rong Jin could cure it, it wouldn’t be delayed until now. In other words, even Rong Jin could only suppress the poison, not detoxify it?
Yun Maozhe, who had guessed the truth, said that he could not accept it …
