Chapter 1166 Sheng Hong was sprayed all over and the Sheng Mansion was in turmoil
There were only six hibiscus and lotus seed cakes in a plate. Zhou Chen ate five of them, taking a bite of the last one before putting it back on the plate.
Seeing Zhou Chen wolfing down the food, the smile on the old lady's face became even bigger. She liked Zhou Chen's casual look the most, because it meant that Zhou Chen sincerely regarded her as a relative and elder, and there was no need for such care between relatives.
Lots of courtesy.
"Sanlang, don't you find it too sweet to eat so much at once?"
"It's a bit sweet, grandma. From now on, you should try to eat as little as possible of such sweet desserts."
The old lady smiled and said: "I'm just addicted to it. I can't eat a few every time I buy it. Many of them are eaten by Brother Quan."
While several people were talking, Sheng Hong suddenly walked in.
"Mother."
"Father-in-law." "Father."...
After Sheng Hong sat down, he said to Zhou Chen: "I heard that Shuyuan was here, so I came over to take a look. It happens that I have a rest today. Let's have a couple of drinks at noon."
Zhou Chen replied: "Of course it's no problem."
Sheng Hong hesitated for a moment and suddenly asked Zhou Chen: "Shu Yuan, it's been several months since Changbai and the others left. Do you have any news about them?"
The reason why he asked Zhou Chen was because the team inspecting the salt tax also went with a lot of Forbidden Army. As the commander of the Palace Front Division, Zhou Chen was in charge of most of the Forbidden Army. If there was any news, Zhou Chen must be the same.
Find out before anyone else.
Zhou Chen shook his head and said: "This matter was personally directed and dispatched by the officials. I really don't know the specific situation, but after all, we are inspecting eight provinces. It's normal to take it slow. Changbai is a smart and intelligent man, so nothing will happen to him."
of."
The old lady waved her hands and said, "If you and I want to discuss state affairs, go to the study room in the front hall to talk. I'll talk more with Hua'er and Shu'er."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "Grandma is chasing us, father-in-law, how about we go to the front hall?"
"That's fine, just go to my study. It happened that I got a painting some time ago. It is said to be the original work of Yan Gong from the Tang Dynasty. I'm not good at this. You can show it to me later and appreciate it."
"Yan Gong's painting? Then I want to take a good look at it."
Zhou Chen became interested. The Yan Gong they called was Yan Liben of the Tang Dynasty, a master of painting and Taoism of his generation.
So Weng and his son-in-law walked out of Shou'an Hall and walked towards the front hall and study.
However, when Zhou Chen walked out of Shou'an Hall, he called Yuan Cai over, gave him a few instructions in his ear, and then followed Sheng Hong.
When he walked out of Shouan Hall, Zhou Chen had already felt the toxins in his body. However, at this time, his anti-toxic physique played a huge role. Most of the toxins were digested, and the remaining part was secretly transferred to Yangzhou by Zhou Chen.
Slowly control the internal force and slowly use the internal force to transform the poison.
Before reaching the study room, he suddenly met Wang Ruofu who was walking out of Wei Ruixuan. Wang Ruofu walked very fast, but when he saw Zhou Chen, he immediately stopped.
"The Duke is here. Is Hua'er at her grandmother's place?"
When she asked this question, she looked a little anxious, because she knew that there was something wrong with the hibiscus and lotus seed cakes sent to the old lady today, but Hualan came back at this time. If Hualan accidentally ate the old lady's hibiscus and lotus seed cakes, wouldn't it be wrong?
There will also be problems.
She was concerned about her daughter, so she wanted to go to Shou'antang quickly to see the situation.
"she……"
Zhou Chen was about to open his mouth to answer, but suddenly his expression changed and he covered his abdomen.
His sudden change startled both Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu. Sheng Hong quickly turned around to face Zhou Chen and asked, "Shu Yuan, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
But Zhou Chen didn't answer him. Instead, he suddenly opened his mouth and spit out a large mouthful of blood, which was sprayed directly on Sheng Hong's body. His head and face were covered with blood, and his whole body was stained with blood.
"ah!"
Wang Ruofu was so frightened that he screamed, Sheng Hong was also frightened, and the other servants were also frightened half to death.
Zhou Chen showed off his actor-level performance, and his face instantly turned extremely ugly and pale. He suddenly reached out and grabbed Sheng Hong's clothes, and looked at Sheng Hong with his eyes wide open.
The next moment, Zhou Chen fell to the ground, and Sheng Hong, who was caught by him, was almost pulled down.
It was this pull that made Sheng Hong wake up. He ignored his own embarrassment and screamed in panic.
"Come here, come here, go get the doctor, go get the doctor."
"Hurry up and lift the Duke up to the room. Hurry, hurry up."
Dongrong immediately took the boy and lifted Zhou Chen up, and carried him to the nearest courtyard room in a panic.
Sheng Hong felt extremely fearful in his heart and his body was trembling. The main reason was that the scene just now was too scary. He suddenly spurted out a large mouthful of blood, which would scare people to death.
When he saw Wang Ruofu being supported by Liu's mother, he trembled all over and cursed angrily: "Why are you still standing there? Go to Shou'an Hall to call Hua'er and ask her what happened to Shuyuan?"
"ah?"
Wang Ruofu responded in a daze, and wanted to walk, but found that his whole body was weak, his legs were weak, and he could not walk at all.
Mother Liu reacted quickly and hurriedly asked the maid next to her to go to Shou'antang to report the matter.
In the Shou'an Hall, the old lady was talking to Hua Lan and Shulan. Suddenly, there was a chaotic noise outside, and then she saw Fang's mother walking in, supporting a maid.
As soon as the maid entered the Shou'an Hall, she knelt down on the ground.
"Old lady, eldest girl, the Duke of the State, the Duke of the State, he, he..."
Seeing that the maid was so frightened that she couldn't speak, Hua Lan felt something bad in her heart. She stood up suddenly and asked, "What's wrong with the Duke?"
The maid held her breath and shouted: "The Duke vomited blood and fainted."
Hua Lan felt her vision go dark, her head felt dizzy, her body went limp, and she sat back down on the chair with a 'thud' sound.
Shulan stood up in a panic. Regardless of her appearance, she rushed to the front of the maid and squatted down, grabbing her hand tightly.
"What did you say? Say it again?"
"The Duke was fine at first, but for some reason, he suddenly vomited blood and fell to the ground. The Lord asked me to come over and tell the old lady and the eldest girl."
Hualan stood up from the chair again, without saying anything, and rushed out of Shou'an Hall alone. Cuichan quickly followed, and Shulan also got up and chased after her.
Mrs. Sheng's hands were trembling, and her face suddenly turned pale. She sat there and tried hard to get up, but she couldn't move at all.
"Fang's mother, Fang's mother..."
"Old lady, old lady."
Fang's mother and several female envoys ran over in panic and helped the old lady up.
The old lady trembled and said: "Go, go to the front, hurry up, hurry up."
Hualan arrived at the destination first, and then saw Sheng Hong, who was covered in blood and had no time to deal with it, and Wang Ruofu, who was slumped in a chair.
She didn't care about anything else and rushed directly to the bed, and then saw Zhou Chen lying there with his eyes closed, his face pale, and there was still blood on his mouth.
"Official, official..."
She caressed Zhou Chen's cheek with trembling hands, listening to Zhou Chen's breathing, calling softly.
It's a pity that no matter how she called, Zhou Chen didn't respond at all.
Shulan and Cuichan also arrived. When they saw Zhou Chen's 'tragic situation', they both felt weak. Shulan also threw herself beside Zhou Chen's bed. Cuichan was equally sad, but she still retained a trace of calmness.
Support Hua Lan.
Seeing that Zhou Chen still didn't respond, Hualan's tears flowed down her face. She suddenly turned her head and looked at Sheng Hong.
"Father, the official was fine when he left Shou'antang with you. Why did he suddenly vomit blood and faint?"
Sheng Hong was also full of doubts: "I don't know what's going on. I walked well and met your mother. Just as I was about to talk, he suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood and sprayed it all over me. I still don't know what happened.
Do you know what’s going on?”
"Hua'er, Shuyuan, isn't he suddenly ill?"
Hua Lan said flatly: "It's impossible. The official's health is very good. We have been married for ten years and have not even been infected by wind and cold a few times. We usually don't get sick. How could he suddenly get sick and vomit blood? This is definitely not the reason.
"
"What's going on? How can a good person vomit blood?"
Sheng Hong was really panicked. Zhou Chen was the Duke of Jing. If something happened in his mansion, the Sheng Mansion would be involved. Moreover, Zhou Chen was also the Sheng Mansion's biggest supporter. He didn't want to see Zhou Chen in any way.
Something happened to Chen.
"There were so many people there at the time, and everyone could see clearly that Shuyuan suddenly vomited blood and fainted without any warning."
Hua Lan still didn't believe it: "It's impossible, absolutely impossible. Guanren is in very good health. Something must have happened, otherwise he wouldn't be like this."
Zhou Chen rested in her room last night, and they had dinner together today. When they came to Sheng Mansion, Zhou Chen didn't show any abnormality at all. If it was a disease, there wouldn't be any signs.
Shulan also said: "Sister is right, the Duke has always been in good health. It can't be an illness, something must have happened."
Sheng Hong really didn't know what to say, so he could only say: "I have sent someone to ask for the doctor, and he should be back soon."
"No, I have to ask the imperial doctor."
It was related to Zhou Chen's safety. Even though Hua Lan felt extremely uncomfortable, she still forced herself to calm down.
"Yuancai, Yuancai."
Yuan Cai appeared in front of Hua Lan the next moment.
Hua Lan handed the token representing his identity to Yuan Cai: "Go to the palace to ask for the imperial doctor, but don't make any announcement."
"Understood, Madam, I will go now."
Watching Yuan Cai leave, Hua Lan suddenly thought of something.
"Green cicada."
Cui Chan was always beside Hua Lan. Hua Lan gave her a few instructions in her ear, and then Cui Chan nodded solemnly and left the room.
At this moment, the old lady came to the room with the support of Fang's mother and others.
"Sanlang, Hua'er, how is Sanlang?"
"Grandma, why are you here? The official..."
The old lady saw Zhou Chen lying on the bed, and her body swayed again.
"Ler me get through."
With the support of Hua Lan and Fang's mother, she sat down beside Zhou Chen's bed, looked at Zhou Chen's unconscious state, her face was full of pity, and she held Zhou Chen's right hand.
"What's going on? What's going on? Saburo is so good, how could he become like this?"
She turned her eyes angrily to Sheng Hong, who was startled by the old lady's ferocity.
"Mom, it's really not my fault. I don't know what's going on. I think Shuyuan may have suddenly fallen ill, right?"
Hua Lan was too lazy to refute, and just said: "Grandma, don't worry, pay attention to your health. I definitely don't want to see you like this. I'm sure everything will be fine."
The old lady hammered her legs hard and said angrily: "How can I not worry? Sanlang is in good health. He was in good health when he came here. He was also in good health when he left Shouantang. He hasn't done anything during this time. Why?"
…”
Speaking of this, she suddenly felt blessed and thought of something. Zhou Chen didn't seem to do anything else during this period. The only thing he did was to eat her hibiscus and lotus seed cake.
For a moment, her face became extremely ugly, and she thought it was impossible, but the more she thought about it, the more she couldn't get rid of this idea.
Hua Lan saw that the old lady suddenly stopped talking and looked very ugly, thinking she was worried about Zhou Chen.
"Grandma, I have sent someone to find the imperial doctor. The imperial doctor will be here soon."
The old lady took a breath to make herself less excited.
"Okay, then just wait. This kid, Saburo, is very lucky. He will definitely be fine."
Her eyes suddenly glanced at Wang Ruofu, who was slumped in a chair far away from the bed. Seeing Wang Ruofu's lost and panicked look, she felt even more uneasy. But she couldn't say anything now, so she could only hold it back.
"Hua'er, it's not appropriate for so many people to gather around Sanlang here. Let's all disperse. Hong'er, Sanlang's affairs cannot be spread out. You go and close the doors of Sheng Mansion now. No one is allowed to leave without permission."
You can come and go as you please, and anyone who dares to disobey will be arrested directly."
Sheng Hong naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, and he immediately replied: "Don't worry, mother, my son knows what to do."
After saying that, he took Dongrong out without even thinking of dealing with the blood stains on his body.
He was actually several times more panicked than he showed. Although Zhou Chen was his son-in-law, he was also the Duke of Jingguo of the imperial court. If something happened to Zhou Chen in their grand mansion, it would really be a big deal. They
The mere Sheng Mansion cannot withstand such a catastrophe.
The old lady woke him up. Without confirming Zhou Chen's safety, naturally she couldn't let anyone spread the news. Whoever dared to go out or spread the news at this time would be going against him and the entire Sheng Mansion.
The old lady kicked everyone out of the house, leaving only Hua Lan and Shu Lan, Wang Ruofu and Hai Chaoyun's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Hai Chaoyun was also very frightened. She was now the housekeeper of the Sheng Mansion and was born in the Hai family, so she naturally understood the horror of this matter.
The doctor Sheng Hong sent for arrived first. When the doctor arrived, he was frightened when he saw this situation.
After calming down and understanding the situation, he began to feel Zhou Chen's pulse, but after taking the pulse, his expression became very strange.
"How is it? How is my official's condition? Why did he suddenly vomit blood and faint?"
Hualan clasped her hands together and asked eagerly and nervously.
