Chapter 1942 Mother and daughter recognize each other
Chen Changli and his companions were unaware of what had happened in the secret passage. They returned to the inn. Just in case, Wan Shufang brought Madam Luo into the space and gave her a detailed examination.
When the test results came out, Wan Shufang couldn't help but sigh: "If Minghe knew how much you've suffered, he would definitely go crazy."
She murmured something, took Madam Luo out of the space, packed up everything, and then Wan Shufang opened the door of the room. Minghe had been waiting outside for a long time.
Seeing Wan Shufang finally come out, he hurriedly asked: "How is my mother?"
"Mrs. Luo is not in a good condition. Although my pills saved her life, she has been abused for a long time and is covered in wounds. Her body functions have declined. She is very weak now and it will be difficult for her to recover. She is likely to suffer from minor illnesses for the rest of her life."
After saying this, Minghe loosened her hand and took a few steps back. In just a moment, her eyes were filled with endless anger: "These damn beasts, when I catch them, I will make them live a life worse than death."
Her voice was hoarse and she was filled with hatred. She wished she could kill those people right now. Seeing this, Wan Shufang gave her a pill to divert her emotions.
"Now is not the time to be angry. This is the medicine I specially developed for Madam Luo. Go feed it to her."
"it is good."
Minghe agreed, took the medicine, and walked into the house. She carefully fed Mrs. Luo the pill, then sat beside her bed, refusing to leave.
Chen Changli and the others could understand this, so they just closed the door and discussed with Minghe in the room.
"Minghe, you said before that your parents were assassinated and died a long time ago, but now we have found Madam Luo. It seems that your parents must have faked their deaths." Wan Shufang said calmly, trying hard to recall all the clues in their hands.
"I didn't know what was going on, and I didn't know my mother was still alive."
Minghe shook her head like a headless fly, unable to find her direction at all. Knowing that she was temporarily panicked and lost her composure because of her mother, Wan Shufang was not angry and tapped the table lightly with her fingers.
"It seems that your mother was left behind by those people because she was still useful." She dug out the hairpin that could cause hallucinations, her eyes flickering, as if she had thought of something, and Wan Shufang looked at Minghe.
"Minghe, are you hiding something from us?"
She asked in a low voice, her face expressionless, staring at Minghe without blinking, and did not miss the flash of guilt on Minghe's face.
"No, how could I hide anything from you?" Minghe pretended to be stupid, reached out to cover Madam Luo with a quilt, and wiped her sweat.
Seeing her little movements, Wan Shufang narrowed her eyes, her face darkened, and she warned in a cold voice: "Ms. Minghe, if you are not sincere in cooperating with us and are hiding something, then our agreement will be invalidated now."
"This is your Nanjiang business. We could have stayed out of it and just gone back. It would have been better for us to have some peace and quiet. Miss Minghe can handle the rest on her own."
As she said this, she pulled Chen Changli to leave. Chen Changli did not resist and followed Wan Shufang's steps obediently. Seeing that the two were about to leave the room, Minghe quickly stood up and grabbed Wan Shufang, saying urgently: "Don't go."
"I... I'll tell you." Ming He pulled Wan Shufang back to sit, and after hesitating for a long time, he stammered, "I am hiding something from you. My mother was once the Saint of Southern Xinjiang."
"It was only later that she fell in love with my father, and only then did she get rid of her saintly identity, hide her real name, and live with my father. However, my mother was very talented in making Gu, so the family was very angry about her leaving, and cut off ties with her from then on."
At this point, Minghe sighed, her face tense, as if she was recalling the past. She slowly told everyone she knew in her memory.
Time passed minute by minute, and by the time Minghe finished telling the past, an hour had passed.
Her frankness also allowed Wan Shufang to capture key information. Thoughts raced in her mind, and she quickly connected everything together.
"Madam Luo is good at making Gu. She was caught and imprisoned, and made hairpins for others. It seems that the people in the city have been poisoned by Gu, so they appear strange." Wan Shufang guessed and looked at Chen Changli and Minghe. They both nodded, obviously agreeing with her guess.
Only poison can control people silently like this, especially when it is made by a top-notch poison master, its effectiveness is doubled.
Wan Shufang patted Minghe on the shoulder. The misunderstanding was resolved, and Minghe was willing to speak frankly. She would no longer bear any grudge against him and only gave him patient advice.
"Now that we have a direction, this matter will be much easier. Minghe, you take good care of Madam Luo. If you have anything, come find me next door. I will go research the antidote."
Hearing this, Minghe nodded slightly and watched Chen Changli and Wan Shufang leave. She came back to Madam Luo, leaned on her arm and closed her eyes to rest.
After Chen Changli and the other returned to their room, Wan Shufang plunged into the space laboratory and began to study the antidote for the hallucinogenic poison.
It was not until nightfall that she finally developed an antidote. After taking it, the poison was neutralized and it was confirmed that she would no longer be controlled. Chen Changli finally let go of his worries.
"That's good. You don't know that your condition yesterday scared me half to death. It was even more terrifying than Nalan Ying's forced marriage." Chen Changli hugged Wan Shufang tightly. Thinking of yesterday, he still couldn't help trembling slightly.
Feeling his worry, Wan Shufang felt sweet in her heart, as if she had eaten honey, but her face was serious: "My Lord, how can you be so reckless?"
"I am the Duke, and also your husband. You are the one I hold dear to my heart, and my concern for you makes me confused."
He was so good at saying sweet words that Wan Shufang felt shy. She pushed him away with a red face and said, "Okay, stop talking nonsense. What should we do next?"
The enemy is in the dark while they are in the light. Even if they know how to remove the poison, they may not be able to defeat the enemy.
Seeing the dark circles around Wan Shufang's eyes, Chen Changli frowned, and a sharp pain surged in his heart. He pulled her into his arms and held her horizontally: "Don't think about these things now."
"Look at the sky outside. It's already night. Madam said that we are not young anymore. Let's rest first. We can discuss how to deal with the enemy tomorrow."
He put the person on the bed and covered her with a quilt, but Wan Shufang was worried and still wanted to get up, but her head was pressed back into the quilt.
"But…"
"Go to sleep. The sky won't fall as long as I'm here." He got on the bed, hugged Wan Shufang tightly, patted her back gently to coax her to sleep, and let her rest peacefully.
Feeling the scorching heat from his body, Wan Shufang couldn't help laughing, but she didn't say anything else. She closed her eyes, and perhaps because she was extremely tired, she fell into a deep sleep without realizing it.
