Chapter 69: Being Targeted

Chapter 69 Being Targeted

“The child’s father is General Lin.”

After Su Muge left the house and returned to Su Mansion, she took out the blood sample of General Lin and mixed it with the blood of the fetus as well as some medicine. The medical reaction proved that the child’s father in Mi’er’s belly was General Lin.

While examining Mi’er’s body, she found not only her soles but also her toenails black. This was not the symptoms of the sexual disease but a toxication.

After cutting open the blood vessel on Mi’er’s feet, she found no blood in it. It must be a toxin which could cause blood clotting.

Su Muge frowned and found an old medical book from the box.

The book was sent to her by Xia Houxi to express her gratitude.

It recorded all kinds of rare herbs that could be used as medicine. She remembered that the consumption of the petals from a kind of flower could lead to the symptom of blood clotting.

“I found it! Xuesheng Flower!”

It was recorded in the book that Xuesheng Flower grew in dark, damp and misty places with miasma most time of the year, and it bloomed only once in a decade. The petals were poisonous. If overdosed, it could cause blood clotting in a short time and even death!

“In dark, damp and misty places with miasma … Nanban!”

It was recorded on the book that such flowers had never appeared in the Chu because there was no such natural environment for Xuesheng Flower to grow.

“Although the petal of Xuesheng Flower is poisonous, the scape can detoxify the poison. So long as the scape of the flower is found, General Lin can be cured!”

After packing up, Su Muge called Yueru in.

“What can I do for you, Miss?”

“Hand this over to Mrs. Lin in person. Remember: don’t give it to anyone else.”

Yueru took over the envelope and nodded solemnly. “Miss, don’t worry, I’ll give it to Madam General.”

Since the petal of Xuesheng Flower was poisonous, Nanban drug dealers rarely sold them to the Chu, not to mention the capital which was far away from the border between the two countries. Therefore, it couldn’t be bought from ordinary drug stores. However, if General Mansion wanted it, it would be much easier to get.

Sure enough, within two days, Mrs. Lin sent a message that the medicine had been found and asked her to go to General Mansion.

Su Muge prepared her medical kit and got on the carriage straightly.

After arriving at General Mansion, Su Muge was led to the main hall.

Mrs. Lin, wearing a dark red dress with a jadeite hairpin in her updo, looked rather pale and sallow.

“Madam, Miss Su is here.”

Mrs. Lin became awake suddenly and looked up at Su Muge, appearing much more refreshed.

“Miss Su.”

Su Muge stepped forward to salute; but before she could bend over, she was held up by Mrs. Lin.

“Miss Su, you really can cure General?”

Su Muge glanced at the eager Mrs. Lin and nodded slightly. “With the scape of Xuesheng Flower, the chance of curing General is much greater than before.”

“That’s great. Come on, bring it here.”

Then, the maid outside brought in a lacquered wooden box.

Mrs. Lin handed it to Su Muge, who opened the box and found two scapes of Xuesheng Flower.

The scapes had been processed, so she could directly blend it into other medicines.

After the medicine was decocted, she made General Lin drink it up.

Su Muge wrote two prescriptions to Mrs. Lin. “The first was for tomorrow, and the second was for the following three days. After that, I’ll come for further consultation on General Lin.”

“Okay, thank you, Miss Su.”

As long as the poison of Xuesheng Flower was detoxified, the sexual disease on General Lin would be cured; at least, he could survive under her treatment.

As soon as Su Muge left General Mansion, she saw a familiar figure running towards her.

“Miss, something has went wrong!” Yueru hurriedly rushed outside of Lin Mansion looking for Su Muge, panting and gasping heavily.

Su Muge pulled her aside. “What happened?”

“I’m not clear. After you left, sister Meihua suddenly came to me and said that Madam was ill. I dared not delay and immediately ran out to find you.”

On hearing her words, Su Muge frowned slightly. “How could she get sick for no reason?”

“I don’t know either. Sister Meihua asked me to send a message to you that Madam is seriously ill!”

Meihua, with a stable personality, wouldn’t exaggerate the facts, so Zhao’s situation must be very bad.

“Go back home right away.”

“Yes.”

Su Muge was so anxious that she didn’t notice the coldness in the carter’s eyes.

Su Muge got on the carriage with Yueru and went straight back to Su Mansion.

Zhao had been a bit depressed these days, so it was possible that she might feel unwell, but it was strange that she suddenly got seriously ill.

Could it be that An had taken some secret actions?

At the thought of An, Su Muge felt so nervous.

The carriage was moving fast. In the beginning, Su Muge didn’t notice anything abnormal until the carriage was running so fast that she was almost bumped out of the carriage.

She reached out to lift the carriage curtain and found the place extremely quiet.

Although Su Mansion wasn’t on the more bustling street in the capital, it wouldn’t be so quiet and deserted. So strange!

“Stop the carriage!” Su Muge shouted at the carter.

But the carter raised his horsewhip and whipped the running horse fiercely, as if he had not heard her.

Only then did Su Muge find that the carter wasn’t the one who sent her out!

“Damn it!”

Su Muge pulled the hairpin out of her hair and stabbed at the carter’s back.

“Ouch!”

The carter let out a cry and rolled down the carriage.

Su Muge grabbed the reins and managed to curb the horse, but it was running too fast to halt.

“Miss, be careful!” Yueru exclaimed.

Su Muge looked forward and found a stone wall ahead. If rushing forward like this, they were bound to be handicapped if not dead!

“I grab the reins tightly, and you jump down when I count to three.”

“But, what about you, Miss?”

Su Muge closed her lips tightly. “I’ll follow you, one, two, three!”

“But, Miss, you …”

“Don’t mind me. Go!”

“Ah!”

Yueru leaped forward and rolled several rounds on the ground until she stopped.

Su Muge loosened the reins and jumped out of the carriage.

The next instant, the entire carriage rushed into the stone wall.

“Bang!”

Su Muge felt her body flying in the air for a while and her sight constantly rotating. After she landed on her feet, she sensed a smell, both familiar and strange.

She looked up and saw Xia Houmo’s perfect chin.

She was startled, hurriedly got rid of his hands and stepped aside.

Xia Houmo also let go of her.

Su Muge looked back and found the entire skull of the horse broken, the wall blurred with flesh and blood, and the carriage knocked apart. If she was still on the carriage at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Xia Houmo had saved her.

“Thank you for saving me, Your Royal Highness.” Su Muge gave Xia Houmo a sincerely grateful salute.

“I’ll remember this flavour.”

“…”

Su Muge was speechless and could only shift the topic. “Someone wanted to kill me.”

Donglin rushed forward. “Your Royal Highness, the carter is dead.”

“Have you seen my maid?” Thinking that Yueru jumped down at such a high speed, she was worried about her condition.

“Miss, I’m fine.”

Yueru staggered towards her with the help of Zuoqiu. She had sprained her ankle and grazed her elbow; luckily, there was no serious injury.

“Donglin, send Miss Su back.” Xia Houmo said lightly.

“Yes.”

Su Muge looked at Xia Houmo. “This man dared to commit a crime in public. It was so abominable. Your Royal Highness, please find out the perpetrator and ensure peace in the capital.” Since Xia Houmo commanded the imperial guards, she had every reason to say so.

She knew the carter must be directed by someone who wanted her to die. And it was probably related to General Lin’s illness. Since she had no backup in the capital, she and the people around her would all fall into danger if the perpetrator wouldn’t let her go.

So far, Su Muge had been deeply aware of the difficulties for her to live or even survive in this complicated capital with no solid back supporting her!

Su Muge gave a quick glance at Xia Houmo. This man was too dangerous; she had better take a second thought!

Xia Houmo suddenly turned back and found Su Muge in a daze.

“Donglin, send Miss Su back home.”

“Yes.”

It was not a surprise that Su Muge didn’t get Xia Houmo’s response. How could the King of Jin, with great military power, be easily instructed by a few words?

“Farewell, Your Royal Highness.”

Donglin found an inconspicuous carriage and helped Su Muge and Yueru get on.

Until the carriage was out of sight, Xia Houmo walked to the smashed horse and pulled out a black star dart from its crupper. It was of the size of a thumb.

Zuoqiu felt a sudden chilliness. “It is a hidden weapon commonly used by experienced killers. Your Royal Highness … I’m afraid Miss Su is being targeted.”

Xia Houmo slightly spun the star dart in his hand with a grave look. “Send two men to follow her secretly; she can’t die right now.”

“Get it!”

On the carriage, Yueru, sitting beside Su Muge, couldn’t help shivering unconsciously.

Su Muge found her so scared and reached out to hold her hand softly, “Scared?”

Yueru gritted her teeth and nodded. “Miss, is that the King of Jin? He has saved you?”

Su Muge nodded. “Yes, thanks to him this time.”

“I was almost scared to death. Thank goodness, you are fine. Who’s the wicked guy? He deserves to be punished harshly!”

General Lin was a general with substantial military power. She was afraid that her treating General Lin must have already hindered someone’s scheme.

“Keep it a secret after going back, OK?”

Yueru nodded. “I see. I wonder if Madam is well now.”

Hearing this, Su Muge frowned slightly. After so much delay, she was also worried about Zhao’s situation.

She wished that Meihua had made a fuss!
