Chapter 84 Arrow Wound
When Mr. Bian came back in the afternoon, he brought a bigger medicine box and a similarly aged imperial doctor, who was said to be his student.
After testing Manjun's blood, the two imperial doctors discussed it for a while, and when they were about to have dinner, they came to a unified conclusion.
The poison in Baimanjun is called "Tianji", which is mostly found in Li country, but not common in Chu country. It attacks the human body slowly, and it often takes a month for its toxicity to dissipate, but once it takes effect, then
Sometimes it is fatal.
Situ Xi asked Mr. Bian about the specific situation. Fortunately, there were not many toxins in Manjun's body, and it was discovered in time. Mr. Bian also knew the antidote formula of Tianjian. He told Situ Xi to take good care of Manjun in the past few days.
After that, you and your students hurried back to prepare the antidote.
Taking a break when Chao Yun was away, Situ Xi called Man Jun to be alone in a guest room. He wanted to have a nice chat with her.
"Sit down, are you getting used to living here?" Situ Xi walked to the chair and sat on the soft cushion.
"Very good." Bai Manjun nodded slowly.
"By the way, what work were you responsible for in Jinse Pavilion in the past? Can you disclose this?"
"Yes, Sir Shijun."
Situ Xi listened attentively, but the room fell into silence.
"Huh? So what?"
"What?"
"So what did you do before..." Situ Xi held his forehead and raised his head to look at her. Seeing the cold expression on her face, he felt helpless.
I don't know if she has this temperament herself or if she is affected by the poison of that day.
"Sending a letter."
"Gone?"
"No, because I can't play the piano."
Isn't that just to help run errands? Situ Xi looked at her carefully again, the piano player who couldn't play the piano...
"Forget it." Situ Xi scratched his head, "Let me tell you straight away, you are poisoned, do you know that?"
"..." Bai Manjun finally changed her expression. Her face turned pale and she quickly calmed down.
"How long do you have to live?" She clenched her fists.
"It's not that serious. Doctor Bian will prepare an antidote for you. You will be fine after taking the medicine on time."
"..." She was silent again, but her body obviously relaxed. After pondering for a while, she said, "Sorry to trouble you."
"There's no need to thank me. Next time Mr. Bian comes here, thank him properly. Don't always be cold-faced when talking to others... No matter what, he saved your life." Situ Xi waved his hand.
road.
"Yes." She nodded heavily, indicating that she remembered.
"Can you tell me why you were poisoned? I saw that you weren't very surprised when you found out. You must have some guesses yourself."
"Yes, please wait a moment." After saying that, she actually raised her hand and took off the gauze on her right shoulder, revealing her fragrant jade shoulders in front of Situ Xi's eyes without any concealment.
"You...what are you doing?"
"Arrow wound." Taking off the wrapped gauze, she raised her left hand and pointed at her right arm exposed to the air.
Situ Xi stood up and moved closer. Taking a closer look from her side, he saw a conspicuous scar that did not match the delicate skin around her.
The wound on her arm has scabbed over, and the current appearance cannot be said to be shocking, but the marks indicate that the skin was penetrated by an arrow not long ago.
"Wrap the gauze and put on your clothes." Situ Xi turned around, and there was a rustling sound of changing clothes behind him.
After she put on her clothes, Situ Xi returned to the chair and sat down. Judging from the scars, she was obviously hit by an arrow not long ago. It should be about the same time as when she was poisoned. Was it a poisonous arrow...
"I understand. Don't show your wound to others. During this period, go out less often and stay at home. If you need anything, ask Chaoyun or Qingyu to buy it for you. Get well first."
Regarding this matter, Situ Xi decided not to ask in detail yet. The matter involving poisonous arrows was very troublesome at first sight. She was now confined at home and could not go out. In a few days, she would be busy with the Flower Festival. She could only wait until the day before her.
Now that the matter is settled, let’s delve deeper into the matter.
Besides, Hua Yaoying must be aware of the specific situation. Since she didn't mention it to herself, she must have her reasons.
Bai Manjun also needs time to detoxify and recuperate. During this period, it is best to keep his mood stable and stay at home peacefully. His house is actually relatively safe. After all, many people have been watching him recently.
.
After thinking about it, Situ Xi paused for a moment and continued: "And the tables and chairs in your room have sharp corners. You can find some soft cloth to wrap them in a while. I told Chao Yun that these few
On the day, you two will sleep in the same bed first, you sleep on the side against the wall, and remember to lock the door before falling asleep."
After all instructions were given, Situ Xi no longer lingered, stood up and walked out the door.
"Master." Bai Manjun stopped him, and Situ Xi stopped and looked back.
"Thank you, Mr. Man." She saluted with an empty head.
…
Zhongli Min spent more and more time in the study in the past two days. Before going to bed at night, Situ Xi would tell her some common sense about future generations, including arithmetic, economics, astronomy and even navigation. He would talk to her about whatever came to his mind.
She said something, and Zhongli Min was also very interested in it.
Situ Xi actually practiced boxing, read, ate, and wrote letters all day long. The contents of each day were repetitive, but he did not feel bored, but felt that he lived a fulfilling life every day.
In the past few days, Mr. Fan came to visit again. Shopkeeper Zhang and his daughter were unable to come together because they had to cook for the envoys of Li State at the Flower Festival.
Situ Xi and Fan Lao discussed the matter of the restaurant in detail. In terms of publicity, on the one hand, they planned to use storytelling to attract some customers, and on the other hand, they used the privileges that shopkeeper Zhang obtained at the Spring Food Party.
They can carry out many promotional activities in the next period of time. After the two discussed, they initially decided on plans such as lottery, membership system, and coupons.
The decoration of the restaurant has been accelerated and it is expected to be successfully opened after the Flower Festival.
Hua Yaoying has recently begun to make something called "smoke balls" according to Situ Xi's instructions. Situ Xi specifically told her to find someone she can trust, and repeatedly emphasized to her in the letter that she wanted to come to her.
Will definitely take it seriously.
In fact, regarding the firearms, Situ Xi was unwilling to hand them over to others to make, but he did not have the right people under his command, and the matter was quite dangerous and required a slightly more professional person to handle it.
After thinking for a long time, Situ Xi decided to hand it over to Hua Yaoying. He chose to believe her. Although he was a little helpless, he currently needed these things to increase his strength, but he only gave her a simple "smoke ball"
