Kang Wang, whose real name is Wang Ruoyu, is Wang Ruofu's biological eldest sister and the only legitimate daughter of the Wang family many years ago.
But what is different from Wang Ruofu is that this Kang Wang is really a dark and despicable woman.
When Mother Liu came to her and told her that the old lady of the Sheng family was dying, she was ecstatic. Then she agreed to Mother Liu's invitation without hesitation and took people with her to the Sheng Mansion. The purpose was to see
The results you want.
But not long after she met her sister Wang Ruofu, before she could say a few more words, the door was suddenly pushed open, and then a group of people rushed up. Without saying a word, they directly attacked her and killed her.
Tied up.
Facing her screams and questioning, Wang Ruofu questioned her loudly, and the two sisters immediately started to quarrel.
However, the quarrel did not last long, and soon she was dragged to Shou'an Hall by Yuan Cai and others. When she saw Old Mrs. Sheng, she was stunned on the spot.
"how come?"
Questions arose in her mind, but before she could speak, the old lady ordered Yuan Cai to take action. Yuan Cai slapped her with a few slaps without hesitation, leaving Kang Wang's mouth full of blood and her face swollen.
My brain was buzzing even more.
Mrs. Kang Wang screamed angrily, but she was greeted with several more slaps, which frightened her so much that she didn't dare to shout anymore and hurriedly shut up.
Seeing that Mrs. Sheng was safe and sound, she thought her plan had failed. But when she learned that the poisoned person was Zhou Chen, she was stunned for a moment, and then burst into a sick laugh.
"Hehehehahaha..."
"God's will, God's will, I originally wanted to poison you, an old woman, but I didn't expect it to poison him. If you really want to count, I still made a profit. How can you, an old woman, compare to a dignified Duke Jingguo...
…”
Kang Wang smiled very proudly. She didn't know what happened in the middle, but looking at the attitude of the old lady and her sister's family, she knew that the situation must be serious, and maybe Duke Jingguo was about to die.
"You bitch."
Even Sheng Hong couldn't bear it anymore and went up and kicked Kang Wang down.
It was because of this Kang Wang family that Zhou Chen was poisoned and injured in his Sheng Mansion, so his hatred for the Kang Wang family could burn all the rivers.
But Mrs. Kang Wang was not afraid anymore and continued to laugh crazily. Thinking of what Zhou Chen had done to her before and what happened to Zhou Chen now, she felt even more happy.
"He deserves it, he is destined to be like this. Duke Jingguo, whom everyone is afraid of, was actually poisoned, hahaha..."
The old lady looked at the crazy Kang Wang family and was too lazy to interrogate her anymore. She just waved her hand and had someone take her away.
When she came to the room where Zhou Chen was, she saw Shulan cleaning Zhou Chen with water, being careful not to hurt Zhou Chen.
"Shu'er, how is Saburo?"
"Second grandmother."
Sheng Shulan's eyes were red and swollen, and it looked like she had been crying for a long time.
"The Duke has not woken up yet. The imperial doctor said it is still stable now. As long as the Duke wakes up, there will be treatment. I'm afraid..."
The old lady understood what she meant, so she said: "Sanlang Jiren only has the appearance of the sky. Even the swords and shadows on the battlefield can't hurt him. How can the mere poison of ginkgo buds hurt him? He will definitely wake up."
Sheng Shulan nodded vigorously and said: "I also believe that the Duke of Guo will be able to wake up. He will definitely be able to."
Although she is only Zhou Chen's concubine, she is willing to spend her whole life by Zhou Chen's side. As long as Zhou Chen wakes up, she is willing to do anything.
"Second Grandma, it's already dark. You can go and rest first. I will take care of the Duke here."
"I have been taking care of you for a long time. Let's go and take a rest. Cuichan is still here."
Shulan shook her head and said: "I can't sleep, I just want to stay by the Duke's side."
The old lady sighed: "Well, for San Lang's sake and for your own sake, take a rest for a while. Only after you have a good rest can you have more energy to take care of San Lang."
Shulan was startled, then nodded silently, but she was not ready to leave the room. Instead, after Cuichan replaced her, she found a recliner and rested in the room.
After struggling for several hours, in the eyes of others, Zhou Chen was always unconscious, but in fact, he only used the Turtle Breathing Technique to put himself into a deep sleep, and used his internal power to disrupt his own breath and pulse.
It confuses the doctors and imperial physicians, making them unable to do anything.
He could hear everyone's voices and conversations, but the time had not come yet, and it was not the time to wake up yet.
In the blink of an eye, two days passed, and Zhou Chen still hadn't woken up.
During this period, Hua Lan came to visit every day, taking care of Zhou Chen for a while, and then hurried back to the Duke's mansion.
Because the Sheng Mansion was completely sealed, the matter of Zhou Chen's poisoning was not leaked out. And Zhou Chen did not show up at the Duke's Mansion for two days, nor did he go to court, which did not cause much commotion, because the Duke's Mansion
Someone has been sent to ask for leave.
The reason for taking leave is that the wife of the Duke of Guo's Mansion is in a coma and is seriously ill. As his son, Duke Jing needs to take care of his old mother and stay by his side at all times, so he does not go to court or go out.
The reason is reasonable and it only lasts two days, so no one will find it strange.
However, I heard that the wife of the Duke's Mansion was ill, and some people wanted to come over to visit, but they were put off by the fact that Mrs. Hualan Yitai needed to rest.
It's just that there won't be any problems in this short period of time, but if it continues for a long time and it's still the same after six or seven days, it won't be so easy to hide it by then.
On the afternoon of the third day, under the treatment of the imperial physician, Zhou Chen finally woke up.
"Old lady, old lady, the Duke is awake, the Duke is awake."
The maid responsible for serving Zhou Chen inside and outside the house went to notify the old lady as soon as Zhou Chen woke up.
Mrs. Sheng has not slept much for the past two or three days. She really can't sleep, and her energy and spirit are also very weak. At this time, she is leaning on the bed to rest.
Suddenly hearing the maid's exclamation, she opened her eyes suddenly and wanted to get up, but found that her whole body was weak. She only got up slowly with the help of Fang's mother, and then hurriedly went to Zhou Chen's place to rest.
Leave the room.
Sheng Hong, who was in the study, also heard the news and ran back in a panic.
In just a short while, many people flooded into Zhou Chen's room, including the old lady, Sheng Hong, Wang Ruofu and his wife, Haishi, Shulan...
"Old lady, Mr. Shanda, the Duke has just woken up, so it's best not to make too much noise."
The imperial doctor told everyone in the room: "The Duke's condition is not yet clear at the moment, and we need to continue to check and observe him, so we still need to rest quietly."
The old lady nodded repeatedly: "Understood, we all understand, I only want to say a few words to him."
After getting the consent of the imperial doctor, the old lady walked to Zhou Chen's bedside. At this time, Shulan and Cuichan were taking care of Zhou Chen's bedside.
Sheng Hong and others also stretched their necks to look around, but they were far away and couldn't see anything. They could only see that Zhou Chen was indeed moving, instead of lying down like before.
Sheng Hong breathed a sigh of relief and touched the sweat on his head. In just a few steps, he was sweating all over. A small part of it was due to tiredness, and most of it was due to nervousness.
When the old lady saw that Zhou Chen's eyes were open, she couldn't help but shed tears.
"Good boy, you finally woke up, finally woke up."
Zhou Chen said 'weakly': "Grandma, I, I'm fine, don't worry, I already know everything."
The old lady said sadly: "You suffered because of me, an old woman. It is me, an old woman, who deserves to die."
"Grandma, don't, don't say that. This is God's will. God asked me to save my grandmother."
Zhou Chen was very good at pretending to be fragile. He chatted with the old lady for a few words and then pretended to be tired again.
When the imperial doctor saw this, he quickly came over to stop him: "Old lady, the Duke has just woken up. It is not appropriate to talk too much. He needs to rest."
"Okay, okay, I'm going, we're all going."
The old lady got up hurriedly, and then drove everyone out of the house, leaving Shulan and Cuichan who were taking care of Zhou Chen.
The old lady walked outside and immediately called Cao Er, who had been guarding outside, and asked him to leave and go to the Duke of Jing's Mansion to report to Hua Lan that Zhou Chen had woken up.
Not long after, Hua Lan came. When she saw that Zhou Chen was awake, tears flowed freely, and she leaned against Zhou Chen tightly, unable to say a word.
As Zhou Chen woke up, the dark clouds in Sheng Mansion seemed to have dispersed a lot.
Another two days later.
Hua Lan and the old lady sent the imperial doctor and left the Sheng Mansion.
Before the imperial doctor left, he still said with a solemn expression: "Old madam, madam, with all due respect, this poisoning has caused some damage to the body of the Duke of Guo, and his internal organs have also been injured. It is possible that
It will leave sequelae, but it is not certain, it is just possible, so if possible, let the Duke rest for a few more months, and if necessary, you can come to me again."
"Thank you, sir. We at the Duke of Jingguo's office will never forget your kindness. If you need it in the future, you can send a message directly to the Duke's office and we will do our best to help."
Hua Lan's tone was solemn. She felt that Zhou Chen was able to wake up this time because of this imperial doctor, so her gratitude was naturally very strong.
"Madam, this is serious. This is my duty and what I should do. It is not worthy of Madam's solemnity."
This imperial doctor is a down-to-earth person, he is not arrogant and is quite humble.
Hua Lan gave another instruction: "Sir..."
Before she could finish speaking, the imperial doctor took the initiative and said: "Madam, don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this matter. I came to Sheng Mansion to see a doctor. I have never met Duke Jingguo and Madam."
"Thank you, sir."
After seeing off the imperial doctor and returning to Shou'an Hall, everyone in the Sheng family gathered together again.
Hua Lan took the initiative and said: "Grandma, father, and officials have already told me that I want to return to the Duke's Mansion to cultivate myself, so I won't nag here."
Just as Sheng Hong was about to speak, the old lady spoke first and said, "Let's go back then. Sanlang hasn't shown up at the Duke's Mansion for several days. It won't be good for a long time."
Sheng Hong swallowed what he wanted to say.
Hua Lan added: "I am also planning to take Prince Kang and her people back to the Duke's Palace."
"Hua'er." As soon as Wang Ruofu called out, Sheng Hong scolded: "Shut up."
"Hua'er, you can take that poisonous woman away, but she caused Shuyuan such misery. You can deal with her how you want."
Although he also wanted to kill the Kang Wang family, he understood that he was not suitable to take action on this matter. After all, she was his eldest sister, and he did not have the courage. It would be best to leave it to Hualan and Zhou Chen.
Wang Ruofu opened his mouth, but thinking about his current situation, he couldn't save himself, so how could he have the nerve to plead for his sister.
Zhou Chen and Hua Lan did not stay any longer, and quickly left the Sheng Mansion with their people from the Duke's Mansion and returned to the Jingguo Duke's Mansion.
After returning to the Duke's Mansion, Zhou Chen made a special appearance and was seen by many people before returning to his room.
"Cough cough, cough cough."
Zhou Chen lay on the bed and coughed weakly.
Hua Lan asked with concern: "Guanren, how are you? Did you get bumpy on the road?"
Zhou Chen said in a weak voice: "I'm fine, how is mother?"
"Mom, she is getting much better, especially after knowing that you, the official, are awake, her mood has improved a lot, and her condition has recovered a lot."
"That's good. If it's because of me that I make my mother sad, then it would be a sin. Ahem."
Zhou Chen coughed a few more times, and then said: "Madam, you asked someone to take my badge to the palace to ask for leave, saying that I was sick and needed a long period of rest."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to ask for leave later."
Hualan can't care about anything else now. She just wants to let Zhou Chen have a good rest and recover well. After all, the imperial doctor also said before that Zhou Chen was deeply poisoned. Although he woke up, his internal organs may still be injured. If he doesn't recover well,
, the body is likely to leave sequelae.
You must know that Zhou Chen is a military commander. If something goes wrong with his body, it will be a big trouble.
Zhou Chen was not worried at all that the officials would not let him ask for leave. He knew that the officials were eager for his absence, and they also hired an imperial doctor this time, so the matter of his 'poisoning' would definitely not be hidden from the palace.
As he expected, as soon as the imperial doctor returned to the palace, the officials called him over and asked him about the situation in person.
Although the imperial doctor promised Hua Lan not to tell anyone, he didn't dare to hide it when facing the officials. He still told the truth truthfully, but he only talked about Zhou Chen's "poisoning". How did he get poisoned? Who was it?
He shied away and said he didn't know about the poison.
"Poisoned, severely injured?"
After the official heard this, he was shocked. He never expected such a result.
Immediately afterwards, he heard a report that someone from the Duke of Jingguo's office had announced the leave of the Duke of Jingguo, saying that Duke Jingguo was ill.
This immediately made him understand that the imperial doctor had not lied, and something had really happened to Duke Zhou Chen of Jingguo.
"It's really the right time..."
The officials could know from the imperial doctor that Zhou Chen was 'poisoned', so naturally the Queen Mother could too.
When the Queen Mother learned about this, she was as shocked as the officials. She had seen Zhou Chen's bravery with her own eyes. How could such a peerless general be poisoned?
What she is more curious about is how Zhou Chen was poisoned and why he was poisoned in Sheng Mansion. There may be many secrets in this.
