Chapter 150: Bai Jinyu was poisoned, is someone plotting against the Dali Temple?
Gu Qingyun brought Bai Jinyu back to the Dali Temple. Bai Jinyu was dragged along the way to climb walls and over rooftops, but now his legs were so weak that he couldn't even stand up with the help of the wall.
"Shaoqing, let me rest for a while, just a little while..." Bai Jinyu was out of breath.
Gu Qingyun brought him a bowl of water. Bai Jinyuting gulped it down before wondering, "Am I misinterpreting? Why does this water smell like... Western Region Soul-Resting Grass?"
Gu Qingyun quickly took the bowl from him and sniffed it. Although he didn't smell any soul-soothing grass, the unique fragrance of the plant was obvious. He immediately said, "Vomit it out quickly, it's not your illusion."
Bai Jinyu hurriedly crawled to the flower bed at the door and vomited violently. Gu Qingyun found two clerks to watch him and went out to ask for a doctor.
Only then did Gu Qingyun realize that he and Bai Jinyu were probably being monitored by someone. This person was vicious and might want to indiscriminately attack everyone in the Dali Temple for the sake of the two of them.
I don’t know whether the poison was put in the well or in the bowl, but no matter where it was, it was enough to kill a person.
They took the doctor back to the Dali Temple. Fortunately, Bai Jinyu, who was poisoned first, had studied medicine since he was a child and was experienced in making and tasting poisons, so his body had some resistance. He also had antidote pills with him, and although they were not the right medicine for his condition, they at least had some effect and protected his heart meridians.
He hurriedly pulled the doctor to the yard and detoxified Bai Jinyu. Bai Jinyu's face was already covered with tear marks, and it looked like she had tried very hard not to suffer from incontinence.
This poison was not a sophisticated one, and it was no secret in the Great Yan Dynasty. It was normal for him to vomit all over the floor. Fortunately, it was not some other medicine, otherwise Bai Jinyu would not be alive today.
"The poison has been removed, but I don't know if there will be any sequelae." The doctor said to Gu Qingyun, and after thinking for a while, he said, "By the way, this dose feels very large. I don't know where the poison came from, and why the dose is so large?"
Gu Qingyun took out the bowl and the pot that he had just poured water into. The doctor took a look and said, "There's something in the bowl and the water... You should take me to check out your well."
Gu Qingyun took the doctor to the front yard and drew another bucket of water. "Take a look at this well water."
The doctor took a sniff and was horrified. "This dose is enough to kill all of you in Dali Temple... I knew something was wrong. It's in the bowl and in the pot. If there were some residues, it would be understandable, but the smell is quite strong. I didn't know until I came to the well that you probably threw the medicine in less than a moment before you came back. Such a large dose is probably like a stone the size of a palm. After throwing it in, it needs to melt slowly. It just melted when you came back, and you were the first to drink it. So... plus, when you draw water, you don't stir it in the well with a bucket, so it is very likely that you hit the center of the well, which is where the medicine was thrown, so..."
Gu Qingyun's face changed slightly, and he asked again, "If there are sequelae, what will they be like?"
"The most common and serious consequence is becoming a fool. If the situation is better, the patient may not be able to speak, or may have shaking hands and feet, or may be hard of hearing or unable to understand the meaning of words. Anyway, the brain is damaged, alas." The doctor sighed slightly, thought of his past patients, and shook his head.
"Does everyone do that?" Gu Qingyun felt a strong sense of guilt and self-blame rising in his heart. If he didn't want to go out and see the corpse in the middle of the night, if he didn't go to fetch water, would Bai Jinyu be okay?
"This medicine basically cannot save lives. Only a few people can be saved, so I cannot make a definitive conclusion." The doctor handed the remaining detoxification pills to Gu Qingyun, "Take the dosage, maybe it will heal."
Gu Qingyun could only nod, and then he thought of something, "Take care, old sir. I'll ask the clerk to take you back." So he hurried to the backyard.
Gu Qingyun confirmed Bai Jinyu's current condition. Fortunately, he was still alive. He hoped that this kid could survive.
Then he hurried to the wells and called a few clerks, "All the water in the wells of the Dali Temple cannot be drunk. Someone has put drugs in them. Quickly notify the authorities."
Although many people knew that Bai Jinyu suddenly became ill and hurriedly sought treatment from a doctor, no one knew the exact reason.
Only after Gu Qingyun explained it did they understand, and they all went down with serious expressions.
After working all night, several lives were almost lost.
After calming down a little, he was more certain that there was a lot of meaning behind Zhao Ping's death.
Originally, Gu Qingyun suspected Mrs. Zhao because she always behaved strangely and even did a lot of things to stop him.
Later, I thought that it was not just Mrs. Zhao. It was impossible for a woman like Mrs. Zhao to accomplish so many things under the eyes of so many people, so I thought that Mrs. Zhao might be an accomplice.
It’s different now. Even if Mrs. Zhao is involved, Zhao Ping is not facing just one person, but many people. As for their purpose, Gu Qingyun is not quite sure for the time being.
But Bai Jinyu probably understood it, otherwise she wouldn't have been ambushed like this. Those people were just afraid that the two of them would say something tonight, so they tried to give it a try.
Usually, Bai Jinyu would stay in the Dali Temple to sort out the autopsies at night, and even use a doll to restore the body.
Therefore, this person is not only familiar with the Dali Temple, but also familiar with Bai Jinyu, and even familiar with all of Bai Jinyu's little habits.
This person is either an extremely vicious person or an expert in committing crimes, otherwise why would he be keeping an eye on the Dali Temple every day?
After Gu Qingyun dealt with the well water issue, he was still a little worried and waited until dawn.
After everyone from the Dali Temple arrived, Gu Qingyun held another meeting and notified everyone about the water well from last night.
He called Zhao Huaiqing and others away and told them everything that happened last night.
Zhao Huaiqing and the others were shocked, Xin Hai was even more shocked, "Shao Qing...you asked me to go home early last night, and then you didn't come back all night. You took the risk without telling me?"
Gu Qingyun ignored him. Wu Huan said, "So, Bai Jinyu didn't say anything and that's it. He has a lot of bottles and jars, so his life can probably be saved, but if he still has a chance to speak, I'm afraid the other party will send someone again."
"Yes, so from today on, Xinhai will stay by Bai Jinyu's side day and night." Gu Qingyun said firmly. Xinhai wanted to refute, but was glared at by Gu Qingyun and could only give up.
"This matter must be resolved as soon as possible. Let's go to the Zhao Mansion again today. We must search his wooden room thoroughly. I always feel that those people may come for something or something. Otherwise, if it's just Madam Zhao alone... her purpose is so direct and clear, which is to let her children live a good life and bully other concubines. If this is the case, then this matter probably has nothing to do with her." Gu Qingyun said. After a tiring night, he planned to take a nap before working.
