Chapter 157: Someone Poisoned

The emperor narrowed his eyes slightly, he had been sizing up An Xue Tang all along. I have to say, this An Xue Tang's beauty truly surprised him.Liu's beauty had already amazed him, but he hadn't ex...Mo Yunjing shook his head, "No."

He had just brought the bowl to his lips when the woman fell, so naturally he didn't have to drink it.

Hearing that he didn't drink, An Xuetang let out a deep sigh of relief, saying, "That's good, that's good."

An Xue Tang didn't have time to say anything else, she quickly ran back to the woman's side. She didn't have any other injuries on her body, so she must have accidentally eaten poisoned food.

An Xue Tang forced open the woman's tightly clenched jaw and took a close look. There was nothing left in her mouth.

Just then, Ding Hua rushed in, "Miss, master, almost everyone in the manor has been poisoned."

"!!"

An Xuetang and Mo Yunjing were taken aback.

A few seconds later, An Xue Tang stood up, rushed into her operating room while saying, "Quickly, Ding Hua you see who else is alright, quickly gather those poisoned people together."

"Yes!"

Ding Hua didn't dare to delay, practically using light gong to rush over.

After entering the room, An Xuetang immediately took out her medical kit and rushed out.

She picked up the silver needles and knelt on the ground to give acupuncture to the woman, while saying to Mo Yunjing, "Ah Jing, if you have any discomfort, be sure to tell me in time."

"Good."

The sounds in the courtyard drew Dong Ge'er out of his room where he had been practicing calligraphy. When he saw An Xue Tang kneeling and giving someone acupuncture, his brows furrowed. He ran over and asked, "Sister, what's wrong with her"

An Xuetang looked up at him in alarm, "Dongge'er, are you feeling unwell"

Dong Ge'er shook his head blankly, "No."

"That's good. From now on, you mustn't eat anything, no matter what. I'll investigate what caused the poisoning and let you know when it's safe to eat again."

Dong Ge'er nodded seriously, "Okay, sister. I remember."

He crouched down beside An Xue Tang, saying, "Elder sister, what can I help you with"

"Medicine, Dong'er, you go get paper and pen, I'll recite the names of the medicine and you write them down."

"Okay."

Dong Ge quickly got up and rushed into the room to grab some paper and a pen. An Xue Tang recited each medicine name one by one, having him write them down before handing the list to Ding Hua, who had just walked in.

"Ding Hua, hurry and ride into town to get medicine. Be quick!"

Ding Hua nodded, "Yes." He took the medicine list from Dong Ge'er's hand and ran away.

Ding Yi also ran in to tell An Xuetang that the people who were poisoned in the village had all been moved to the courtyard in the main hall.

"I understand." An Xue Tang removed the silver needles from the woman's body and then said to Ding Dao, "You all take this woman to the front yard as well. Have the kitchen staff boil some water. Be quick about it!"

After speaking, An Xue Tang didn't wait for Ding Yi's response. She turned and ran into her operating room. At this moment, she quickly went through all the medicinal herbs in their home and took out all those that could be used to treat illnesses.

An Xuetang gave the medicine to Dong'er, "Quickly take it to the kitchen and have them boil it after the water comes to a boil for fifteen minutes."

"Good." Dong'er ran to the kitchen with the medicinal herbs in his arms.

An Xuetang picked up the medicine box on the ground and turned to Mo Yunjing, saying, "Ah Jing, I'm not at ease with you alone here. Why don't you come with me into the hospital"

She still doesn't know what caused the poisoning. Leaving Mo Yun Jing here alone, she felt uneasy about it.

Mo Yunjing understood what she was worried about, and nodded slightly at this moment, "Alright."

Seeing him agree, An Xuetang immediately ran to his side, placed the medicine box on his lap, and then pushed his wheelchair outside.

Upon entering the courtyard, An Xuetang and Mo Yunjing were taken aback by the sight of over twenty people lying there.

An Xuetang frowned, "So many people poisoned"

Ding Yi nodded slightly, "Yes, I've gathered those who haven't reacted together. In case something happens to any of them, we can handle it more easily."

"Hmm." An Xuetang took out her silver needles and gave them each a prick. The needles went in, and not long after, their faces contorted in pain, and they instinctively tilted their heads back, spitting out some brownish water.

Brown water

An Xuetang stared at the water, her pupils widening, "It's barley tea! Barley tea is poisonous, Ding Yi, quickly go get me a cup of barley tea."

Ding Yi clasped his hands together and said, “Yes!”

He ran out of the kitchen to get barley tea, while An Xuetang's hands did not stop, continuing to give them acupuncture.

This barley tea was taught to the kitchen staff by An Xuetang. Since there was barley on the estate, she thought of making some drinks that were not as bland as water for those who worked hard every day.

Barley tea has become a daily drink for almost everyone on the estate, even An Xue Tang and Mo Yun Jing occasionally enjoy this barley tea.

I can't believe someone tampered with the barley tea!

An Xuetang finished giving them the injections, and the kitchen had also boiled the medicine soup.

Ding Erding San brought the medicine and, under An Xue Tang's instructions, fed it to the person on the ground.

Ding took a cup of barley tea and handed it to An Xuetang, who immediately tested it for poison with her silver needles.

It really is poisoned barley tea!!

Mo Yunjing's expression turned serious. "Tangtang, have you had any of this barley tea today"

"No, no. I've been too busy today to even have tea!" An Xuetang looked at Ding Yi and the others, "Have any of you had some today"

All four of them, Ding Yi, Ding Er, Ding San, and Ding Si, shook their heads.

"That's good, then you guys hurry up and ask, are there any people who are still alive and have drunk barley tea"

"Yes."

Here, An Xue Tang had just made the arrangements and hadn't had time to say anything else when a dull thud suddenly sounded from behind her.

An Xuetang was startled, and quickly turned around. It was Dong Ge'er. At this time, Dong Ge'er was obviously also poisoned.

"Dongge, you're drinking barley tea too"

Dong Ge'er weakly nodded, "Yes, I drank it before Sister came back."

An Xuetang cursed the person who had poisoned them, then gave Dong'er an acupuncture treatment to induce vomiting. His eye sockets were slightly less bruised than the others, indicating he hadn't ingested much of the poison.

After giving Dong Ge'er the medicine, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw his complexion improve.

Currently, all the poisoned individuals are out of danger. We just need to wait for Ding Hua to buy the antidote and brew it for everyone to drink, then the poison will be completely resolved.

"Tangtang, come here." Mo Yunjing silently watched An Xuetang busy for a while, then beckoned her over.

An Xuetang walked over feeling slightly tired. She subconsciously wanted to squat beside Mo Yunjing, but Mo Yunjing acted first, stopping her waist and making her sit on his lap.

He had somehow picked up a handkerchief at some point, and now he was wiping her sweat without saying a word.

An Xuetang didn't coyly refuse, just allowing him to gently wipe her.

Mo Yunjing wiped the sweat from her forehead as he spoke in a low, husky voice, "What do you think of today's events, Tangtang"e journey back to the capital from here would take several days even if we traveled without stopping.Moreover, with people like Mo Yunjing and Feng Ming present, she definitely wouldn't be allowed to...
