Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter Chapter 198 - Died from murder

Chapter 198 Died from murder

Sun iniang frowned and said, “Childe Feng, we think you are Jiugu’s nephew, so we are all polite to you. But you’ve made a ss of our family. There are scatter poisonous stone powder all over the room, and you still interrupt our housework here. You are way out of line! Our family is a decent family. You co to visit but don’t take the right path. What is the difference between you and a burglar? What’s your position to help He Danggui? ...”

“Eh-hem!” Madam Luo interrupted Sun iniang’s words with a severe cough and thought, “Duh, now Shao still keeps thinking about Feng Yang. Maybe he is your future son-in-law. How could it be so awkward?”

Sun iniang didn’t know that her daughter had recently beco fascinated by Feng Yang. She just thought Madam Luo was taking sides in He Danggui, so she said unhappily at once, “Madam Luo, He Danggui is a hoodoo and a demon. We don’t know what she has done to Zhu, and hooks his soul so that he doesn’t get close to his own mother. His heart seems to be obsessed. He only follows the demon. In the house of Qian’s First Branch, there are 5 complete people, but suddenly one is missing. That is not the end of it. Qian has 4 kids from his concubine living outside. Although they are out of dignity, they are also descendants of our Luo’s Family. Those won are good health and good luck after accompanied with Qian for several years. But when He Danggui ca back a few months, they all died tragically. It can be seen that He Danggui is a hoodoo totally. If Shao hasn’t played with her, Shao would not have made the ssy powder and been sent to the Taoist temple for training by you. What’s more, she would not burn the Taoist temple on fire, and her left hand would not have been burned. He Danggui is really harmful! It is a heinous cri!”

Before He Danggui reacted, Feng Yang was furious. He smashed a wooden table on his right side and said threateningly, “Second Mistress Luo, you have seen it. I am not weak in martial arts and have a bad temper. I also like to be a burglar. If you continue to turn black and white, and spill the sewage on others, I don’t guarantee that one day you won’t die accidentally and die from Jianghu revenge.”

He Danggui frowned. Although Feng Yang helped her with kindness, Sun iniang had close business transactions with the presbyter of the Beggars’ Organization, and had a lot of money to buy killers. Why should he argue with Sun iniang, a person who refused to suffer losses, and use cruel words to threaten her? If he really wanted to kill her, he wouldn’t yell out in advance.

Seeing the fragnted wooden table, Sun iniang turned pale with fear, and unconsciously stepped back. Ding Rong’s wife rushed forward to protect her and shouted, “Kill !” But Luo Chuangu frowned. Suddenly, he looked at He Danggui and asked, “Yi, you said that you have thought of a new clue? What is the new clue?”

He Danggui blinked and said, “Yes, a new clue. I don’t know the whole story of Concubine Hua’s bleeding, but I am inexplicably charged with poisoning. I really have a lot of doubts in my heart. This evening, when my maid Bo He ca to see , she said that Dr. Ma diagnosed Concubine Hua’s fetal instability because there was sothing wrong with the antiabortifacient she took. Until taking out a stack of prescriptions that had been prescribed to Concubine Hua before, Madam Luo and Dr. Ma were sure that there was no problem with the prescriptions, but there was a problem with the antiabortifacient. So, Concubine Hua’s maid took out the dicine that haven’t yet been decocted, and asked everyone to check it. Then they found out that there was ‘parturifacient’ inside. Is it true or not? Second Uncle, do I make a mistake or miss sothing?”

Luo Chuangu nodded and said, “Yes, that’s right. So what?”

“Later, when Second Aunt convicted , what she told to Madam Luo was as sa as Dr. Ma said. Concubine Hua had a male child. Now that she has eaten parturifacient for many days. Even if we keep it, that will be likely born as an idiot in the future.” He Danggui said slowly, “Madam Luo and Second Uncle, you are both doctors who are familiar with pharmacology. You have seen the dicine taken by Concubine Hua and the symptom after Concubine Hua taken dicine. I want to ask that what kind of dicine is Concubine Hua taking? Is it the ‘parturifacient’ or the ‘abortifacient’?”

Sun iniang was confused and couldn’t help blurting out, “The parturifacient is abortifacient. There is no question about this. Stop quibbling!”

However, Madam Luo wrinkled a pair of distant eyebrows, and slowly recalled, “Among the packets of dicines found out from the cabinet, there are sunflower seeds, talc, musk, cinnabar and red pea, which are all used in the parturifacient. Alas, Hua Yu is really careless. The sll of musk is so strong, but she drinks it for so long… Huh? Wrong!”

Luo Chuangu also showed an incredible look and asked Madam Luo, “Mother, did you see clearly that there is really musk and cinnabar in the antiabortifacient?” His voice was high and fierce, which made Sun iniang and Ding Rong’s wife feel a little unconsciously guilty and look at each other.

“What’s the matter with musk and cinnabar?” Feng Yang looked at He Danggui and expressed curiosity.

He Danggui said with a smile, “I am originally a layman. But so ti ago, following the teachings of Madam Luo, I spent all day reading dical books in South Yard dicine House. And I barely understood so of them. Originally, ‘parturifacient’ and ‘abortifacient’ belong to 2 different categories. Parturifacient, as its na implies, is a drug that is taken only in small quantities when the parturient is about to give birth and the fetal position is not correct or the fetal head is in trouble. It is an essential dicine in the hands of a midwife. Since the parturifacient contains musk and cinnabar, the parturient should take it carefully, or keep it in the mouth without swallowing it. Once the baby is successfully given birth, the parturient should imdiately spit out and gargle with water, just because the parturifacient is very powerful. The efficacy is also imdiate and fast.”

Feng Yang scratched his chin and asked with his tilted head, “Can’t she take the parturifacient with musk? Could it be poisonous?”

He Danggui explained, “It’s not necessarily poisonous, but for won, musk is a taboo thing to avoid. For so won with cold body constitution, they can only take 2 or 3 drops, and it is hard to get pregnant in the future. For pregnant won, especially when the fetus was unstable in the previous few months, if they take a bit of the parturifacient, which contains sunflower seeds, talc, musk, cinnabar and red pea, the fetus in the abdon will tremble several tis. So, when I heard Bo He talked about it, I imdiately felt strange. Concubine Hua’s body is so strong. After taking a few pieces of parturifacient, it only showed bleeding. If others, that could lose a child with a small bowl of dicine.”

Madam Luo and Luo Chuangu were gloomy. They had high hopes for Concubine Hua’s fetus and expected her to give birth to an heir to San Qing Tang. So, when they heard that sothing had happened to Concubine Hua, they were shocked by the news. Later, it was found out that soone poisoned Concubine Hua’s male fetus. The anger diluted the sense. They only thought about how to punish the murderer, but ignored such a big flaw—the property of the dicine found in the cupboard was too strong. It definitely wouldn’t be the kind of dicine that hard Concubine Hua. If this dicine really caused the result, Concubine Hua didn’t even have to eat it. As long as a packet of dicine hanged on the bedside, and she slled it for 2 months, her lower part of body would bleed!

Sun iniang and Ding Rong’s wife didn’t know pharmacology. They didn’t have much common sense in this area, and even parturifacient and abortifacient couldn’t be distinguished. Although they didn’t quite understand it, they also knew that a part of the matter might had made mistakes, which led to it. They couldn’t help but feel anxious, but they couldn’t think of counterasures at the mont.

Feng Yang was still curious. He tirelessly asked, “Is it possible that the Concubine Hua doesn’t take the dicine and she is too weak to have an unstable fetus?”

“No, there are many manifestations of instability of the fetus, and the instability of the fetus caused by improper dication is the most nacing one. As long as there is a doctor with pulse experience, it is impossible to confuse this.” He Danggui looked at Madam Luo, and said clearly and slowly, “The sll of musk is special. It is hard to imagine that Concubine Hua was completely unaware when taking the dicine. And the property if that parturifacient was so strong like a tiger, and it’s also hard to image that the Concubine Hua could rest for a few months after taking the dicine, Madam Luo, I heard that Dr. Ma is the one who diagnosed Concubine Hua at the ti, and now he is just waiting outside the hall. So, I want to him to co in and ask 2 questions.”

Madam Luo asked Shi Liu to call Dr. Ma to co in. There was a mont of suffocating silence, while the people in the house were waiting. Sun iniang frowned and exchanged glances with Ding Rong’s wife. This scene fell in the eyes of Luo Chuangu, and his doubts deepened. He could figure out it, but he was unwilling to accept from his heart. His wife, whom he had always loved and cherished, not only lost her virginity, but also secretly poisoned his concubine and children. Was this woman, who was ahead of her mother in his heart, really that kind of person?

After a short while, the masked Dr. Ma ca in again. When Luo Chuangu saw it, he was angry and shouted, “Show your face when you are talking! None of us have avoided stone dust. Is your life more precious than us?”

Dr. Ma slowly took off the towel. He glanced at Luo Chuangu and then at Madam Luo. It seed that he wanted to say sothing.

He Danggui dragged the cloak and paced. She asked, “Dr. Ma, I heard that you are a national master of the gynecology, so I want to ask you. Which pulse is slippery, astringent, or through in Concubine Hua’s pulse? After you determine that her unstable fetus caused by the dication, have you put the needle on her Sanyin channel and Shaoyang channel to figure out which dicine is poisonous in her?”

Dr. Ma thought for a while with his mouth open, and 2 dicine nas popped out dryly, “Cattail pollen, and caulis akebiae.”

“Oh? It turns out to be cattail pollen and caulis akebiae.” He Danggui smiled slightly and said, “I read in a book so ti ago. These 2 dicines are both belong to cold dicines, and have the effects of draining and stranguria. They are common in all kinds of abortifacients. In this way, it seems that Concubine Hua is indeed caused by the dication, not by her own weakness.”

Dr. Ma subconsciously wiped the absence of sweat on the forehead, and said, “Well, she is weak, and poor sleep has certain effects... Oh, she seems to have eaten crabs a lot in the past 2 months.”

“Crabs?” Madam Luo looked at Dr. Ma strangely, and couldn’t help asking, “Why don’t you ntion these things when you got your pulse in the afternoon?” Dr. Ma hesitated and couldn’t answer.

Feng Yang consulted the He Danggui, an encyclopedia, “What’s wrong with crabs? I also ate a large plate yesterday. Are they poisonous?”

He Danggui smiled and said, “Ordinary people don’t have much taboo when eating crabs. Just be careful not eat it cold and too much. When you eat it, you can enjoy the food with ginger and spirit. But, for pregnant won, crabs are sothing as cold as caulis akebiae. If she eats too much, she can even achieve the sa result as taking a bowl of abortifacients.”

“But, what’s the difference between abortifacient and parturifacient?” Feng Yang was a little puzzled and asked, “Aren’t they all things that can cause pregnant won to abort? Why did Madam Luo and others suddenly show a stunned expression when they recalled the dicine found by Concubine Hua is a parturifacient, instead of abortifacient?”

He Danggui looked at Sun iniang’s pale face, and answered Feng Yang with a clear voice, “The abortifacient is a much milder dicine than the parturifacient. The effective ti ranges from 10 days to several months. Although it doesn’t sound like a good thing, it is also a kind of serious dicine. It is used to kill so 3-month-old stillbirths and blood fetuses. After so elderly won are pregnant, if they don’t want the fetus, they can take a few. The mild abortifacient will not cause too much damage to the pregnant won’s body even if they miscarry. Second Aunt must know this very well. I heard that she has also taken it.”
