Chapter 2877 Something bad happened (first update)
Cao Zhengkuan was startled and said: "Oh, my father has been busy with your second sister's engagement party these days. Many distinguished guests came all the way from the capital. Come on, I was busy with the reception, so I really didn’t pay attention to this matter."
Immediately, Cao Zhengkuan called the housekeeper in, "I want you to keep an eye on that boy from the Wang family. How have you been watching these past few days?”
The housekeeper bowed and said, “I have been watching you for the past few days. The prince was still the same as before. He had no shortage of food, drink, prostitution, and gambling. In the past few days, Mr. Wang seems to have calmed down a bit, and he has not been out of the house very often."
"Not out of the house?" Cao Zhengkuan was surprised, and a bad guess flashed in his eyes.
The butler continued: "But don't worry, sir. I have placed people in the palace to keep an eye on the prince's movements. If anything unusual happens, he will come and report to me."
Cao Zhengkuan frowned. He lowered his eyebrows and then asked: "Then the manpower you arranged has not come to report to you in the past three or four days?"
The steward said: " If you haven't come here, there must be nothing wrong with Mr. Wang..."
"Presumably?" Cao Zhengkuan was a little angry, "This matter is related to the life of the third young master, you give me 'presumably'?" >
The housekeeper's expression tightened with fright, and he said hurriedly: "Old servant, go find that person now and ask the prince about the matter in detail!"
The butler left in a hurry.
Here, Cao Zhengkuan gritted his teeth in anger as he watched the butler leave.
"Dad, Dad, it's not good, it's not good, come and see!"
Suddenly, Cao Sanshao's frightened cry came from the bed.
Cao Zhengkuan turned around and saw Third Young Master Cao rolling up his sleeves and looking at him with his arms raised.
"What's wrong?" Cao Zhengkuan asked, and he came to the bedside in three steps. He grabbed Mr. Cao's arm and put it in front of his eyes to take a closer look.
At this sight, Cao Zhengkuan's expression changed.
Six days ago, it was just a five-inch, looming black line embedded in the skin, like a hair.
But today, it is a blue-black strip as thick as an earthworm, extending from the wrist to the upper part of the arm, only seven inches away from the armpit.
"What on earth is this? Why is it really growing?" Cao Zhengkuan murmured, his eyes filled with fear.
Third Young Master Cao was so frightened that his voice changed, and one of his arms drooped down, as if it weighed tens of millions of pounds and could not be lifted up.
"Dad, I don't want to die, I don't want to..."
He cried and shouted, which made Cao Zhengkuan even more upset.
"Son, please don't cry, I'm going to ask Dr. Chang Yuchun to come over right now!"
Soon, the famous doctor Chang Yuchun, who was still a guest in Cao Mansion, hurried over.
After he carefully diagnosed Third Young Master Cao, his eyes finally fell on the black line on his arm.
Even the well-known and well-known doctor Chang Yuchun has his brows furrowed and his face solemn at this moment.
Cao Zhengkuan leaned over and asked tremblingly: "Doctor Chang, what kind of poison did the child have? Can his life be saved?"
Chang Yuchun's eyes still fell on Third Young Master Cao. On his arm, the words were addressed to Cao Zhengkuan.
"Judging from the third young master's pulse and many other aspects, he is indeed poisoned. This is a rare and chronic poison." He said.
"Dr. Chang, didn't you say it was okay when you checked the child's pulse before?" Cao Zhengkuan asked in confusion.
"Why did it suddenly happen after a few days..."
Chang Yuchun looked up at Cao Zhengkuan and said: "This kind of poison has a long incubation period. Before the toxicity occurs, it is indeed No clues can be found."
"Now, the poison has started to take effect, which is really surprising!" he said.
As soon as he finished speaking, there were rapid footsteps outside the house, and the housekeeper left and returned. "Master, something bad is going on. Mr. Wang suddenly fell ill this morning. He was shaking all over, foaming at the mouth, and was incontinent."
“It is said that my internal organs are so painful that they are about to burst. Let alone playing outside, I heard that I can’t even stand up.”
“Mr. Wang brought all the doctors in the county to Everyone has been invited, including Dr. You Fang who runs the stall at the entrance..."
Cao Zhengkuan's heart sank suddenly when he heard the news from the housekeeper.
Cao Sanshao was so frightened that he cried, "Doctor Chang, Dad, please save me, I don't want to die..."
When he said the last "ah", Third Young Master Cao fainted.
The Cao Mansion suddenly became a mess.
......
After pouring ginseng soup and blood bird's nest again, Mr. Cao finally woke up at night.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the bed, the room was brightly lit, and the face of an old woman that disgusted him was right in front of him.
The old woman is his legitimate mother and the biological mother of his eldest brother.
This old woman had no friendship with him, but she was sitting there pretending to wipe her tears.
Cao Sanshao originally wanted to pretend to be asleep and not want to talk to this old woman. However, another voice sounded that also disgusted him.
"Mom, third brother is awake."
Yes, this voice is his eldest brother's voice.
Third Young Master Cao could only slowly open his eyelids.
Beside the bed, Mrs. Cao saw that Third Young Master Cao had woken up, and said hurriedly: "Second Young Master, you are finally awake. You have been unconscious for most of the day, and the entire Cao Mansion has been disturbed by you. It's all over the place, your father, I, your eldest brother and your second sister are all worried about you."
A great deal?
Cao Sanshao secretly rolled his eyes and said directly, "Madam, you are right, it is my fault, I shouldn't be like this, making the house full of chaos."
"Where is my father? I want to apologize to my father and ask him to give up treatment on me. If I die, I will not cause trouble to you, and this house will be clean."
Mrs. Cao's face suddenly turned ugly after being contradicted by Third Young Master Cao's words.
"Third brother, why are you talking to your elders? I care about you, haven't you seen that my eyes are red from crying?"
Mrs. Cao pointed at herself asked Cao Sanshao with his eyes.
Cao Sanshao twitched the corner of his mouth and muttered: "A cat cries and a mouse pretends to be compassionate. I don't care about that!"
"Hey, how can you talk like a kid? You are so useless. Are you ignorant of good or bad? ”
Mrs. Cao was so angry that she stood up and pointed at Mr. Cao with the handkerchief in her hand: "Your mother died when she gave birth to you. It was I who brought you up. I should have known you were such an immature white-eyed person." Wolf, I shouldn't have raised you in the first place!"
"I didn't let you raise me..." Cao Sanshao said.
Mrs. Cao was so angry that she could no longer pretend to be in front of Third Young Master Cao.
At this time, Young Master Cao, who had been silent beside the bed, spoke up again.
“Third brother, I know that you are not in good health and therefore in a bad mood, but I also remind you not to lose your temper, and not to pass on the harm caused to you by outsiders to your relatives. The person who poisoned me was Yang Ruoqing, not my mother. Please clarify the situation!”
Young Master Cao had a gentle voice and a gentle face. He had his hands behind his back and looked calm.
