Zi Gui recounted honestly, "The physicians tried their best today to preserve Young Master Yun's life for now, but it's hard to say if Young Master Yun can recover after this. Imperial Censor Yun was so anxious that he immediately handed over a token to summon the imperial physician. "
Ning Shu frowned and asked, "Did you find out if he was poisoned?"
Zi Gui shook his head. "The physicians said that they did not find any signs of poisoning, but that it seemed to be caused by someone hitting him hard. However, it contradicted what was said. They did not find any bruises on Young Master Yun's body. Imperial Censor Yun repeatedly asked all the servants around Young Master Yun if he had fought with anyone recently, but all of them shook their heads and denied it. "
"Were there any other abnormalities?"
Zi Gui lowered his head and recalled carefully before shaking his head.
Under the yellowish candlelight, Ning Shu dabbed water as ink and slowly wrote the complicated thoughts in her mind on the table. The night air was cool, gently drying the water stains on the table. Ning Shu was in no hurry as she continued writing after dabbing the water.
Beside her, Zi Gui wanted to say something but hesitated. He could not help but speak up, "Miss, the whole city is now saying that you cursed Young Master Yun. The storyteller at Parting Cloud Inn made this into a story and spread it widely. This subordinate will teach those who started the rumor a lesson tomorrow. I will not let them tarnish your reputation again. "
Forsythia was furious when she heard that. "I'll go with you. Wait for me to tear apart those fabricated mouths!"
Young Master Yun's illness was not poisoned by her mistress, nor was she the one who injured him. It was foolish to pin a crime on someone based on a few rumors!
Ning Shu pondered and chuckled, "With the strength of the two of you, you won't be able to stop ten thousand idle mouths. Instead, you'll be used as an excuse to attack us again, which will fulfill some people's wishes. Since that's the case, there's no need to be calculative with them. The innocent will know that they are innocent. Moreover, I have thick skin. Will this bit of spittle hurt a piece of flesh on my body? There's no need to bother. Zi Gui, continue to guard the Residence of Yun. Report to me immediately if there's any new news. "
Zi Gui accepted the order and left. Forsythia pouted angrily while making the bed for Ning Shu. She didn't disturb Ning Shu's thoughts. She looked at the handwritten handwriting and studied it carefully.
It looked like poison, but it wasn't poison. It looked like injury, but it wasn't injury.
There wasn't a trace of bruise on the surface, but all of his internal organs were damaged.
All of his internal organs were injured, but he didn't notice it at all. This was simply the biggest contradiction.
Cloud Leaf was obsessed with poetry and essays. Basically, he did not go out of the Residence of Yun. The people he befriended were all scholars in the literary world. Furthermore, he was modest and did not make enemies. In the past month, he had been busy preparing for the wedding. He was either busy in the mansion or going in and out of the wedding shops in Xi City with his manservant. He didn't even have time to attend his friends' gatherings. If he was injured, where did this injury come from?
But if he was poisoned, then the poison was so potent that no one could detect it. It must be a strange poison. The person who poisoned him had put in a lot of effort.
Was the poison targeting the Cloud Leaf or her?
At this moment, the night wind suddenly blew. The peach blossom tree in the middle of the courtyard outside the window made a rustling sound. The newly bloomed peach blossom petals left the receptacle and were swept into the small window by the wind. Ning Shu subconsciously reached out and grabbed a petal. There were more petals falling on the wet table.
Ning Shu suddenly stood up. The moonlight that was like water reflected into her pair of jade eyes, making her eyes look clear and beautiful. "Perhaps, we need to take some time to visit my second husband who died early."
Forsythia opened her mouth wide. "Ah?"
