Poor Lady Chapter 73: Hysteria?
In the past month, the capital city has been very lively. The marriages of the Eighth Prince and Luo Yanyi, as well as Feng Zhan and Liu Qian'er, followed one after another, and the grand occasion was breathtaking.
On the day Feng Zhan and Liu Qian'er got married, Qi Surong also sent a congratulatory gift. In his previous life, Feng Zhan went away alone in a foreign country. In this life, his fate has completely changed. He married a beautiful wife. I hope he can escape from the evil and live in harmony with Liu Qian'er.
However, Qi Surong was always feeling uneasy. A few days later, she got bad news from the Number Gang——Gu Jinyun had an accident in Liancheng.
According to the letter, Jin Yun had a high fever after returning from a banquet, and the fever subsided the next day. Everyone thought nothing happened, but at night, Jin Yun suddenly went berserk, smashed everywhere, described it as horrific, and returned to normal after dawn. Several doctors were invited to check, but they couldn't find any problems. Some doctors speculated that it might be a kind of hysteria.
Hysteria? Qi Surong's face is ugly, others may not know it, but she is very clear that Gu Jinyun never suffered from hysteria in her previous life! If it is not a natural disease, it must be man-made.
Has she still failed to change history? The Gu family still can't get rid of the fate of being implicated by her? In the last life, the Gu family just dispersed their wealth and was forced to move away from the capital, but now it directly endangers Gu Jinyun's life?
Qi Surong's thoughts were confused and anxious. No, the Qi family no longer has a secret decree, the emperor and the eighth prince have turned against each other, none of them have the heart to deal with a little Gu family again. Besides, what's the point of killing Gu Jinyun? Even if you want to kill, it should be aimed at her and her parents.
It's no wonder that Jin Yun didn't come back for a long time. He must have planned to come back after controlling his illness, but the situation is not optimistic.
Calm down, calm down first. Jin Yun will return to the capital soon, and we will see the situation then, we can't mess up our position first.
While Qi Surong was waiting anxiously, Gu Jinyun finally returned home before the beginning of winter.
Qi Surong didn't care about being reserved, and rushed to the door to meet her husband. His skin was a little darker, his face was also a little thinner, and his face was still cold, but Qi Surong could faintly feel his fatigue.
"Rong, I'm back." Gu Jinyun walked over and took her hand.
Qi Surong suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said in a gentle voice, "Come in, father and uncle are very worried about you."
Gu Jinyun nodded, and walked into the house holding his wife's hand. On the way home, he thought a lot. In order not to worry his family, he had to try to be as natural as possible. Although he didn't know that Qi Surong actually knew about his condition.
When Gu often saw his son, he asked about his health for a long time.
Qi Surong stepped forward and said, "My husband is tired from the journey, why not let him go back to the room to freshen up."
"That's right, that's right, I can't stop talking, Jin Yun, you should go and rest now."
Gu Jinyun did not refuse, and after saluting, he went to the bedroom with Qi Surong.
After closing the door, Qi Surong hugged Jin Yun and nestled quietly in his arms.
Gu Jinyun felt a warmth in his chest, full of tenderness, stretched out his arms to hug her, and comforted her: "It's okay."
Qi Surong raised her head, hesitated to speak, and finally didn't ask anything. She asked someone to prepare hot water, took a bath for him, and gave him a massage.
Qi Surong didn't ask, and Gu Jinyun didn't say anything, the two seemed to have a tacit understanding, quietly enjoying the feeling of being alone.
At dinner, Gu Jinyun only had four simple words about his trip to Liancheng: "Everything is going well."
Gu Chang and Gu Yufeng have long been familiar with his style of cherishing words like gold, and they never questioned him. The family is harmonious.
Qi Surong looked at Gu Jinyun, is he planning to hide his illness from his family? How to hide it?
At night, Gu Jinyun said to her: "Rong, I still have some books to sort out. I will stay in the study tonight. Go to bed early."
Qi Surong was annoyed, he thought this kind of reason could deceive her? But she didn't expose it, and suppressed her worries and doubts, and replied: "Well, okay, don't worry too much."
Gu Jinyun nodded, put on a robe and walked out of the bedroom.
Qi Surong looked at his straight and cold back, inexplicably feeling a little sad.
She called Ping'er and gave her such instructions. In the middle of the night, Ping'er ran over and reported: "The young master never came out after entering the study."
"Is there any strange movement inside?"
Ping'er shook his head: "There seems to be no one in there, it's very quiet."
Qi Surong frowned, got up and said, "Let's go and have a look."
She came to the door of the study with a bowl of ginseng soup, knocked on the door and said, "Jin Yun, it's me, can you come in?"
There was no sound in the study, Qi Surong knocked on the door again, but there was still no response, she gently pushed the door and found that the door was locked.
"Liu Zi, I know you're inside, open the door!" Qi Surong raised her voice slightly, "If you don't open the door, I'll go directly to invite my father-in-law."
There was a flurry of footsteps inside, but after a while, the door was opened, and the six sons smiled reluctantly: "Madam, it's late at night, why haven't you slept yet?"
Qi Surong pushed him away and walked straight into the study.
"Hey, ma'am!" The six sons were shocked.
Qi Surong looked around in the room, but Jin Yun was nowhere to be seen.
"Where's your young master?" She asked.
The six sons bit their lips, wondering: "This, the little one doesn't know."
"Six sons!" Qi Surong said coldly, "There are some things that cannot be concealed, should you confess now, or ask the master to come out and confess later?"
Six sons sighed, and replied: "Madam, it's not that the little one deliberately concealed it, but the young master didn't let the little one tell."
"I know." Qi Surong said calmly, "You just need to tell me where he is, I already know his situation."
The six sons looked surprised: "Ma'am, do you know?" After a pause, he said again, "Okay, please come here with my wife."
He walked to a bookshelf, turned some mechanism, and the bookshelf moved away, revealing a dark room.
Qi Surong was secretly surprised, she had lived in the Gu family for four or five years in this life plus her previous life, yet she didn't know that there was such a dark room in the study. Thinking about it this way, the relationship between her and Jin Yun in her previous life was indeed indifferent, and she couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
Concentrating, Qi Surong followed the six sons into the dark room. This dark room is not big, she saw Gu Jinyun sleeping on the stone bed at a glance.
Walking over quickly, Qi Surong touched his forehead and asked Liuzi: "What's wrong with him?"
"The young master drank the drug and is now falling asleep."
"To keep yourself from going crazy?"
"Yes." Sure enough, Madam knew. The six sons thought secretly.
"He was like this before?"
Liu Zi nodded: "Yes."
Qi Surong said solemnly: "You should know that drinking too much medicine is harmful to your body." It is because the medicine is three-point poisonous, and if it accumulates for a long time, Jin Yun may be poisoned and die.
"The young master wants to use this method to stop himself from going crazy. Maybe if he persists for ten days and a half months, his illness will be cured."
"Confused."
The six sons sighed: "This disease is too strange, the doctor is helpless, and the young master is also helpless. Moreover, the effect of the drug is actually..."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Jinyun on the bed suddenly convulsed, with intermittent low moans coming from his throat.
Liu Zi's complexion changed, and he said nervously: "Not good! Ma'am, let's go out quickly, the young master is going to go crazy again."
Gu Jinyun suddenly opened his eyes, jumped up from the bed, and rushed outside quickly.
Qi Surong hugged his waist and shouted to the six sons: "Quickly close the door of the darkroom."
The six subconsciously exited the dark room and activated the mechanism.
"Sixth son, the lady is still inside!" Ping'er patted the bookshelf in panic.
Six sons were startled, and raised their hands to reopen the dark room, but heard Qi Surong's voice from inside: "Don't open it, you are guarding outside."
Ping'er anxiously said: "Miss, you should come out, let's take care of the young master together." She was only answered by a series of muffled sounds.
Qi Surong was thrown away forcefully by Gu Jinyun, and her back hit the wall heavily. She let out a cry of pain, and raised her eyes to see Gu Jinyun rushing around in the room, his face distorted like an evil ghost.
Seeing this scene, Qi Surong was even more sure that Jin Yun had been drugged, but he didn't know what kind of poison would make people crazy, and they only went crazy at night.
Gu Jinyun kept banging on the wall, even hitting his head, which almost caused his head to bleed. Qi Surong was shocked, and rushed over to hug him: "Enough, enough, Jin Yun, wake up!"
Gu Jinyun turned a deaf ear, knocked Qi Surong into the air with his backhand, then threw himself on her body, and threw his fist at her.
Qi Surong closed her eyes, thinking to herself that this punch probably killed her half, but there was a muffled sound in her ear, and the fist hit the ground beside her face.
She looked deeply at Jin Yun, stretched out her hands to hold his face, and said softly: "Jin Yun, I am Su Rong."
Gu Jinyun's eyes flickered slightly, the muscles on his face twisted, then he hugged his head and curled up on the ground.
Qi Surong hugged him and said with tears, "Jin Yun, Jin Yun."
Gu Jinyun lay motionless in Qi Surong's arms, as helpless as an abandoned child.
I don't know how long it took, Gu Jinyun called softly: "Rong."
Qi Surong lifted his spirits and said pleasantly, "Jin Yun, you have regained your sanity."
Gu Jinyun looked around, turned his face away, and said nothing.
Qi Surong turned his face around and kissed him on the lips.
Gu Jinyun was taken aback for a moment, and said in a depressed voice, "You know?"
"Well, I see."
"I'm sick, I have a strange disease."
"So what? Are you going to hide it from me forever? Can you hide it?"
Gu Jinyun hugged her, leaned his face against her chest, and said sullenly: "I don't want you to see me like this."
"I am your wife, if you don't show it to me, who are you going to show it to?"
"Aren't you afraid of me just now?"
"Afraid? Of course I am afraid, I am afraid that you will accidentally beat me to death, and then commit suicide."
"...It's not funny at all." Ma'am, is it really okay to say such terrifying words in a serious manner? He didn't feel comforted at all, instead he became even more nervous!
"Okay, tell me, what happened?" Qi Surong raised his head and asked, "Who is the one who hurt you?"
"Why do you think someone harmed me?" Gu Jinyun asked a little strangely, "I just suddenly suffered from a strange illness."
"Sudden strange disease?" Qi Surong shook his head and said, "I don't believe it, your body is always strong."
"Who can guarantee that he will be free from illness and pain in his life?" Gu Jinyun looked at his wife in his arms, his eyes darkened.
"Do you really think it's just a disease?" Qi Surong asked again.
"If it's not for illness..." Gu Jinyun was silent for a moment, then pondered: "I can't think of who would harm me, and what is the purpose of harming me?"
"What's the business over there in Liancheng?"
"It's just an ordinary transaction dispute, and the amount of goods involved is a bit large. The steward over there can't decide, so I let me handle it myself." Gu Jinyun said seriously, "I have investigated it carefully, and there seems to be nothing suspicious. "
"Anyway, let's see Dr. Jiang tomorrow, maybe he can see something."
Gu Jinyun looked at Qi Surong with deep gloomy eyes: "If my illness can't be cured..."
"It will be cured, trust me." Qi Surong held his hand tightly, "Don't drink drugs anymore, I will stay by your side and accompany you."
"If you don't drink drugs, use a rope." Gu Jinyun touched Qi Surong's bruised face, his eyes were full of guilt.
"Okay, I won't let you hurt me again, I will protect myself until you recover." Jin Yun felt guilty, and so did she. She suspected that Jin Yun's illness was caused by her, and this possibility made her very uncomfortable.
She will not let the tragedy happen to her and Jin Yun again, she will do everything possible to help him out of the crisis. A firm light flashed in Qi Surong's eyes.
He does not want Su Rong to suffer any harm, nor does he want to lose her, no matter what, he will not give up the hope of healing. Gu Jinyun hugged the person in his arms tightly and swore secretly.
