Chapter 427 Got Poisoned!

Qiu Yelan didn’t show mercy on Jiang Huizhi when knocking her out. Jiang Huizhi was in a coma and completely woke up two days later. At this time, praises for her pure filial piety had existed everywhere. Jiang Jingzhi, her eldest younger brother of a concubine, came to tell her the messages and advised her, “After the second great grand uncle knew it, he praised you a lot. The bird’s nest you just ate was specially sent by my third great grand aunt. Now the elders all believe the rumors. It’s not worth it to tell the truth instead!”

After weighing carefully, Jiang Huizhi understood that Jiang Jingzhi’s words were right. She gnashed her teeth for a while and sneered, “At least I have earned a reputation of filial piety! I didn’t harm the Empress this time, but I can do it again next time… There will be ample time. We’ll see!”

However, the sister and the brother didn’t know some other things. These two days Qiu Yelan finally found Jiang Tianhe and met her in a secluded place. Qiu Yelan told her all the plots of Jiang Huizhi and advised Jiang Tianhe to speak and conduct gently, not to provide goods for others easily. “Why dispute with your grandchildren as for your seniority and status? Isn’t it right? Even if you’re really angry, you should consider it for the Empress!”

Jiang Tianhe was not too stupid to listen to Qiu Yelan’s advice. Although Qiu Yelan was her junior, because of the influence of the fourth branch, she couldn’t regard her as other daughters-in-law or disregard her. So, she seriously scolded the first branch for being shameless and Jiang Huizhi for being vicious at a young age for a while. And then she said that she would notice it later and wouldn’t let these villains succeed again.

But her anger was far more than being entrapped by Jiang Huizhi’s plots, “In the past Fubing was wronged for the fourth branch. I took it as an excuse to make Qiu Yelan be in the wrong and overpower her! However, she gave me back a favor immediately. If I mentioned Fubing’s grievance later, how could it be so effective? These b*tches of the first branch really always made troubles for me!”

Jiang Tianhe had planned to use the good relationship between Qiu Yelan and Xin Fubing. Qiu Yelan’s husband and her brother from her maiden family had totally taken advantage of the deaths of Jiang Yayue and Jiang Yaqing. Xin Fubing had suffered losses for the real murderer. It was expected that Qiu Yelan couldn’t help but feel guilty! Jiang Tianhe wanted to seize her guilty conscience to make her become a partner step by step… Jiang Tianhe schemed well. Unexpectedly, just because of her complacency, she personally gave Qiu Yelan an opportunity to get even with her at the very beginning!

“And the fourth branch is deeply favored by my father. My father died, my fourth brother being charged with important tasks may not be able to come back, and my fourth sister-in-law must come back on his behalf!” Jiang Tianhe bit her lips and felt deeply worried, “If she comes back and realizes that I want to draw Qiu Yelan in, she will not sit back!”

The couple of the fourth branch was best at protecting their own branch. If they know that she had such intentions, it would be strange for them not to find her directly and fall out with her!

“Fortunately, I only said those words. I can say that I was angry with the affectations of the first branch so that I spoke impatiently. My father has just passed away. It’s expected that my fourth sister-in-law can’t do anything to me no matter how shrewish she is!” Jiang Tianhe thought of this and was a little calm. And then she planned how to deal with Jiang Huizhi, “Such a little abject b*tch dared to play tricks in front of me. If I don’t give her a knock, she will really treat me as a person who can be bullied casually!”

Although the confrontation between the two sides was tacitly suppressed by people close to the matter, the funeral ceremony of Sir Jibei was still so abustle and grand. But it could not be concealed from Madame Tao. Madame Tao smiled leisurely to Mom Hu in private, “That’s right! Only if they fight, can we lay aside all anxiety and rest content!”

Qiu Yelan knew a little about these obscure minds, but she was not in the mood to deal with them. It was because Jiang Jinglang was ill!

Like his cousin An with a formal name called Jiang Jingkun given by Marquess Qin on his first birthday, Jiang Jinglang was also born in August. Now he was only four months old. It was conceivable that how frightened Qiu Yelan was when such a young child had a fever at that time with bad medical conditions!

Luckily, although Marquess Qin and others were grieving for Sir Jibei, they also attached great importance to this great grandson. They specially asked Qiu Yelan not to help in the Sir Jibei’s Mansion and let her come back to the Marquess’s Mansion to take care of her son!

When she hurried back with fear, the child with similar eyebrows and eyes to her in the swaddling clothes flushed from fever. His sickly look made Qiu Yelan cry on the spot!

The room was so quiet that they even could hear a pin drop. Not only Mrs. Zhou and others were terrified, but also Mrs. Qu, who was confident and a little arrogant because she was Madame Zhuang’s trusted subordinate, lost her arrogance and carefully explained, “We took care of him as usual without making him get in a draught or helping him take off clothes. He fevered this morning! I really can’t think of anything wrong.”

Qiu Yelan touched her son’s small face and felt the heat with her hands. She only felt extremely upset with sorrow. How could she have the mind to condemn them? She asked the doctor continuously, “What’s the matter? When can he get better? Is there a way to reduce his fever immediately?”

At that time, it was common for children to die young whether in the royal palace or the rural families. Moreover, such a young child that had a fever might inevitably become mentally retarded even if he or she could survive. How dared the doctor promise her? But he also didn’t dare to say something serious to her and could only fumble with an embarrassed look!

When Qiu Yelan was completely impatient and her tone became more severe, fortunately, Dr. Lin arrived at the command of Marquess Qin and said, “Don’t worry, madame. Your son makes his own luck! Could you please let me check him?”

Qiu Yelan gave him the child in the swaddling clothes without saying a word!

Dr. Lin had served Marquess Qin for many years and had a noble position in the Jiang Family. He was not as timid as the last doctor. He asked the servants to turn the heating floor up. After confirming that Jiang Jinglang would not be chilled for unfolding the swaddling clothes, he started to observe and palpate. After that, his face became clouded immediately and he said in a deep voice, “He is not ill. He got poisoned!”

Qiu Yelan was shocked. Mrs. Qu, Mrs. Zhou, and others also looked at each other in fear!

“Can this kind of poison be detoxified?!” Qiu Yelan couldn’t stand stable when she asked the doctor and Mrs. Qu hurriedly supported her before she fell!

“… Please let me prepare two medicines and ask the wet nurse to drink, and then feed him.” Dr. Lin knew Jiang Jinglang’s position in the eyes of Marquess Qin. Although he couldn’t see whether the baby who was only four months old was clever or not, considering the talent of his biological father and his uncle, who dared to say that he would not be another gifted person of the Jiang Family in the future?

If so, he would be the guarantee of the long-term prosperity of the Jiang Family!

So, he thought for a long time before answering her question, but he didn’t dare to give an accurate answer. For fear that Qiu Yelan might ask him intensely, he quickly changed the topic and said, “The top priority is to find out how he was poisoned?”

“Mrs. Qu, you go outside to guard the door, and no one is allowed to go in and go out!” Qiu Yelan repressed her fear and anger and ordered in a deep voice, “Mrs. Zhou, you call all the people in the yard out and let them monitor each other. If someone dares to hide any hints, don’t blame me for being cruel and merciless. Su He, you go to the Ruan’s Mansion and borrow more men to search the yard inch by inch!”

At this critical moment, she trusted these people left by Qiu Jinglan more!

After giving urgent orders, Qiu Yelan carefully picked up her son and choked, “Dr. Lin, please check the things close to Lang’er and see if there is anything wrong.”

… Although Dr. Lin found out that the room where Jiang Jinglang lived was all right, Qiu Yelan was worried to put her son in it. She sent a person to Sir Jibei’s Mansion to ask Madame Tao’s permission and borrow several rooms in Madame Tao’s yard. Not only Jiang Jinglang, but also Jiang Jingkun and the child of Jiang Qizheng and Qiu Feng who previously lived in the same room with Jiang Jinglang, were all moved to the other two rooms!

The most valued and noble great grandson of the Jiang Family was unexpectedly poisoned during his great grand uncle’s mourning period! When the news reached Sir Jibei’s Mansion, even if the funeral ceremony was not over, all people were stunned!

Marquess Qin was particularly angry, “Check out! Check it out! Borrow helpers from me if you don’t have enough hands! Find out the culprit and cut him to pieces!”

Madame Ou forced herself to hold on. She urged Jiang Yashuang to go back and give a hand, “With such a serious matter happened, your wife must be worried about the child. How can she have spare time to find the culprit out? Go and help her.”

Being afraid of being blocked by Marquess Qin, she specially sent a servant to tell Marquess Qin, “Although Kunlun took good care of Tianchi before he died, that’s what an uncle should do. Now Jiang Yadan, Tianchi’s eldest trueborn son, is enough to be here. If something happens to Jiang Yashuang’s room, don’t detain Jiang Yashuang for courtesy. If Kunlun knew it, he would ask Jiang Yashuang to go back and protect his child at the moment!”

Jiang Yashuang returned to the Marquess’s Mansion with a pale face. He only glanced at the child in a rush and then Qiu Yelan asked him to find out the culprit, “I’ll watch him with other servants and you can’t give a hand here! Find out the person who harmed our child! My grandfather said he would cut the culprit alive, right? I’ll do it by myself!”

On this day, the atmosphere was extremely depressing in both Sir Jibei’s Mansion and Marquess Qin’s Mansion.

All people stopped fighting openly or secretly and stopped slacking off, lest they would offend Marquess Qin and other masters!

In the room of Madame Tao’s yard, Qiu Yelan touched her son’s forehead to check the temperature again and again. The baby’s hair on the top head was dark. He had thick eyebrows and long eyelashes like Qiu Yelan. His pink face turned abnormal purplish red, but it looked white touched with red and was so lovely that people would love him so much. The child was her son and her own blood. Her heart was softened when she just looked at him. The loud cry and powerful kick at his birth seemed to be still lively in front of her eyes, but now he fell asleep. Each breath that he exhaled was so difficult and hot. Qiu Yelan had never felt so helpless and sad!

“Are there other prescriptions?”

“Change another wet nurse to take medicine!”

“You’ve served my grandfather for so many years. Your medical skill must be superb! There must be another way, right?”

Even if Qiu Yelan had little medical knowledge, she also knew that if Jiang Jinglang’s current temperature can’t be dropped tonight, the child will be a disabled person even if he could live tomorrow morning! She looked at Dr. Lin and said with a trembling voice. Dr. Lin, who was always calm, turned away in embarrassment.

This action made Qiu Yelan’s heart almost sink to the bottom, “Can’t you really do anything about it?”

“He is too young!” Dr. Lin whispered and considered his words, “The cures that can be used for ordinary people can’t be used on him, and the poison… It’s too difficult to expel the poison!”

Qiu Yelan only felt a whirl of heaven and earth!

“Tell Jiang Yashuang that there is only one way now! Find out the culprit immediately and ask for the antidote!” The exclamation of the servants seemed to be noisy. The noise was both far and near to her. Qiu Yelan pinched her fingernails into the palm of her hand hard to stimulate herself to stay awake with pain. She couldn’t collapse now. Her son needed her!

“Find out the source of the poison even by tearing down our yard!”

“Find out all people that went in and out of our yard these days. Even a dog can’t be missed!”

“Check all the things that were taken in our yard, including a leaf, a drop of rain, and a piece of snow. Check out whether those things are poisoned or not!”

… At night, Marquess Qin still didn’t receive the news that his great grandson had turned to be safe, or that the culprit had been captured. He finally couldn’t repress his anxiety. He asked Madame Ou to forgive him and went back to the mansion in person. As soon as the sedan stopped in front of the mansion, the bodyguards outside the sedan suddenly became alert, “Who is there?”
