Clumsy framing of the blame

Clumsy framing of the blame

Just when Du Heng was about to reach Xiao Zimei and the others, Du Zhilan's maid ran to Du Heng in a panic.

"Miss Fourth, I can't find the eldest lady. Please help me, wuwuwu."

This girl with a double-ring bun immediately blocked Du Heng's path and interrupted Du Heng's attempt to stop Xiao Zimei and others.

Her expression didn't look fake, and her eyes were filled with water, and big tears were about to fall down.

Du Heng stopped helplessly and asked patiently: "In addition to the absence of the third sister, isn't my second sister also here?"

"Miss A Qing and the second lady went to find the eldest lady together..."

Du Heng gently patted Du Zhilan's maid and said: "Good girl, don't panic, did my eldest sister only take you with me today?"

The other party nodded heavily.

"Then when did you and my eldest sister get separated?"

"Just after the eldest lady and the fourth lady broke up on bad terms, first Miss A Qing was called by her sisters, and then the eldest lady felt thirsty alone, so she asked the slave to bring her some tea;

As soon as the slave took two steps, she heard the eldest lady talking to herself, "Why is he there..."

Then she trotted towards the rockery over there, and when she was done, she told her slave to bring back tea and wait for her where she was...

Then, a long time after the slave came back, the eldest lady was still missing. While searching for her, the slave asked people around her. None of them had seen the eldest lady. Only then did the slave feel that something was wrong..."

I had to say this intermittently several times because I was so frightened that I finally finished it.

Du Heng nodded and hurried to the rockery, asking, "Have you looked for the rockery?"

"I have searched for it, but the rockery is too big. I was afraid that I would get lost and delay my time, so I only dared to call the eldest lady from outside, but there was no response from the beginning to the end."

"Okay, then Jingse and I will go in and look for you, and you can look for the wife of the head of the Xue Mansion. It's already this time and we don't care about etiquette anymore!"

After Du Heng gave his instructions, he asked her and Jingse Bing to separate into two groups. After all, the rockery was too big, and it would be better for the two of them to find something small.

"Big sister! Du Zhilan! Can you hear me? I am Du Heng, are you lost~"

Du Heng entered a stone cave. The space inside the cave was extremely large. It was a natural cave. The stalactites on the top were still dripping with water.

There was a very subtle echo in the quiet and vast space. This regular and dull sound stimulated goosebumps on Du Heng's body every time it rang.

Perhaps due to environmental reasons, the temperature here was much lower than outside. At this time, Du Heng did not feel cool, but felt cold from head to toe.

The uneasiness in Du Heng's heart quickly spread to her whole body. Just when she was about to rush out, a black figure flashed past in front of her, walking in a hurry, as if she was fleeing in a panic.

Du Heng raised his eyebrows in surprise. Why did the other party think he would fall for such a clumsy accusation?

She had no doubt that the other party wanted to lure her to Du Zhilan. Du Zhilan was probably in danger, but she didn't understand why the other party took a fancy to her as the scapegoat?

The battle between heaven and man in Du Heng's mind about "should I go or not" didn't last long. She glanced at the footprints on the ground, smiled knowingly, "Yes!" and then chased after him.

Sure enough, she didn't walk long, and she saw Du Zhilan lying on the ground in a place with strange rocks and a bloody head.

On a nearby rock, there was a large dark red blood stain that had not yet dried.

Du Heng hurriedly stepped forward to check. Du Zhilan's whole body was cold and she was indeed breathless. However, her face was not pale as usual due to excessive blood loss. In fact, after being exposed to the heat for a long time, her complexion actually turned blue-black.

Du Heng pinched her cheek and found that her teeth were clenched, which really didn't look like...

That's right! Du Heng suddenly remembered something, held Du Zhilan's armpits with both hands, and was about to drag her into the cave. At this moment, the anxious voices of others rang out...

"Miss Ah Qing, and all the ladies, I really can't bear to trouble you all to search together. The eldest sister has been missing for a long time, and the younger sister is really worried. I hope she is safe and sound - ah! Fourth sister, are you there?

do what!"

Just when Du Heng was about to drag Du Zhilan into the shade of the cave, a short and sharp scream sounded, and even the hot weather seemed to be added to the skin-burning sensation by her scream.

Du Heng looked up and saw that the woman who called her fourth sister indeed had a beautiful face and she should be her second sister.

Next to him was the girl Ah Qing whom he had just met. Not only that, but there seemed to be several people behind her.

The current scene is Du Heng expressionlessly dragging Du Zhilan, who has blood on his head and does not know whether he is alive or alive, to the depths of the cave.

"Fourth sister, what have you done! No matter how the eldest sister treats you, she is still your legitimate daughter! How could you do such a dirty trick! Are you trying to hide the body?"

Du Ruolan quickly suppressed the ecstasy in her heart. She didn't expect that Du Heng was really stupid. He actually dragged someone in. Was it because he was afraid that others would not doubt her?

The ladies next to her were indeed as Du Ruolan thought. This Du Heng was really too courageous! He killed someone in someone else's house and even tried to dump the body!

The first person to bear the brunt was Ah Qing. When she saw this situation, she wanted to rush forward immediately. Unexpectedly, Du Heng scolded her coldly: "Don't come forward!"

Ah Qing's anger was half extinguished when he saw Du Heng's angular but calm face, and he stopped unconsciously.

"Fourth sister, now that things have come to this, you still want to..."

"She's not dead, she's just dying. I put her in a cool place to prevent the disease from getting worse."

After that, Du Heng really put down Du Zhilan and ordered:

"Hurry up and call the doctor from Xue Mansion who knows Bian Que moxibustion. Let them bring Suhexiang pills and add Erchen decoction with Atractylodes, Cyperus rotunda, Angelica sinensis, Magnolia officinalis and the like. The sooner the better!"

After that, Du Heng began to untie Du Zhilan's clothes to facilitate acupuncture.

While explaining, he asked: "Which of you has calamus in your sachet?"

Several girls looked at each other, but they could not hesitate and quickly took out the meager calamus in the sachet. Du Heng walked close to the rocks and took it, frowning: "Too few..."

The girl standing at the end took out the sachet: "I have more, use mine..."

Du Heng was overjoyed after taking it and said thank you. Then he looked around, folded a long leaf, put the calamus on it, and placed it under Du Zhilan's nostrils, pretending to blow.

"Wait a minute!" Ah Qing called to Du Heng, "How sure are you?"

Du Heng did not hide anything, "If you treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, there will always be 10% success."

After saying that, he looked at her deeply: "Miss Qing, when the doctor comes later, be sure to keep an eye on them and let them move aside. If your dear sister cannot be saved, she will have to rely on you to save her..."

Ah Qing was shocked in her heart and was about to continue asking when she saw Du Heng had lowered his head, covering the calamus to prevent it from splashing later, and blew hard into Du Zhilan's nostrils——
