"Okay." Xuan Jinmo first unlocked his mother's acupuncture points, and then helped his mother to stand up. The clothes on her mother's body were covered with blood and sweat, and they were wet and clinging to her body.
"Go and hug your sister and let her sleep on the bed. The ground is cold and her illness has not fully recovered." Mu Ruolan murmured, "Be careful not to wake her up."
"Yeah." Xuan Jinmo responded softly, wiped the blood off his hands on his clothes, walked over, picked up his sister from the ground, put her gently on the bed, covered her with the quilt, then stepped out and put her down.
Curtain. "Mom, my sister is sleeping well. Please wait here for a while while I go get someone to come over."
Mu Ruolan shook her head gently, "No need, it will be fine once the pain passes. Where is the hot water you boiled? Mom wants to wash her face."
"But, you have wounds all over your head and body. You must apply medicine, otherwise, the blood will flow endlessly-" Xuan Jinmo said stubbornly, "My child doesn't believe that dad can't come over. Maybe the nanny ran away in a panic.
, maybe he fell down."
Mu Ruolan took a long breath and said softly: "It's getting late, don't make any noise, let's take a rest. Just clean up my mother's wound and apply some medicine. There's still some in the back room."
"Is it Madam—" Xuan Jinmo said with a cold face.
"Jin Mo!" Mu Ruolan said hastily, "Don't talk nonsense. Listen to mother, go to the back room to get medicine, and then get a basin of hot water."
Although he was reluctant, looking at the stubborn expression on his mother's face, Xuan Jinmo had to go to the back room to get some medicine, and then went to the kitchen to get a basin of hot water. Although the stove fire was out again, the water was still very hot.
Wet the towel and clean the mother's wound.
It was not until early in the morning when the rain stopped and the slaves came over that they found that something had happened to the third lady. She was lying on the bed with a sallow complexion and a bandage on her head. There was still blood leaking out. Young Master Jin Mo was standing by the bed with his clothes untied, with circles under his eyes.
Some are darkened and pale.
Only then did someone rush to notify Prince Xuan, the eldest lady, and the second lady. However, there was no trace of the wet nurse. They searched all over the house, but she was nowhere to be found.
Prince Xuan Qingmu went to the palace early in the morning, but before he came back, the first lady and the second lady rushed over. The doctor in the palace had already arrived a step earlier and was diagnosing and treating him.
"Doctor Fan, how is she?" Tong Wei didn't seem to have had a good rest either, his face was a little tired and his voice was a little lazy.
"This -" Doctor Fan was from the prince's family. His expression was a little serious at this time. He seemed to be thinking about how to express himself. He paused, stroked his beard, and said cautiously, "The third lady must have been poisoned."
This kind of poison is basically incurable."
Tong Wei was stunned. She didn't ask her girl to give Mu Ruolan such a heavy dose of medicine. She just gave a dose of medicine that would make Mu Ruolan comatose three days later. She planned to use Mu Ruolan's serious illness as an excuse to ask for help.
Prince Xuan made the decision to adopt Xuan Jinmo and Xuan Jinyan to her, and then privately took Mu Ruolan's so-called "corpse" out of the palace and put her under house arrest.
When Aunt Yuan went back and mentioned Mu Ruolan's symptoms, Tong Wei immediately guessed that someone had killed Mu Ruolan before her, most likely the second wife Qiu Xinyu.
If Mu Ruolan agrees to adopt his son and daughter to Tong Wei, it will directly threaten the inheritance rights of the second wife's two sons, and even make the two brothers lose their husbands' inheritance rights.
Tong Wei glanced at Qiu Xinyu coldly. Qiu Xinyu was wearing a red soft satin coat. She had a round figure and a beautiful face. At this time, she was looking at the pale Mu Ruolan with concern. She seemed to feel the eldest lady's gaze and turned her head.
