Chapter 178

After Chu Xu settled down, Shi Chuying also went to bed and slipped into his arms.In his sleep, Chu Xu still spontaneously hugged him tightly, and put another leg on him, and Shi Chuying slept peacefully on Chu Xu's arm.

But in Cheng Guogong's other courtyard, it was a different scene.

"It's all arranged?" Cheng Guogong, with a tired face, lay powerlessly on the bed, panting for words.

Lu Zhuo brought a basin of hot water, and then soaked the cloth towel and wrung it dry. Lu Zhuo answered while wiping his father's body.

"Dad, don't worry, the son used the seal to transfer the father's manpower, and directly monitored all parts of the Duke's mansion. If the father didn't return to the mansion tonight, those who want to take action will not be able to help but take action. When the time comes, we will follow the vine. Can always catch the black hands.

Cheng Guogong was unable to move, so he could only let his son serve him.

"Daddy, my son always thinks this is a bit strange. It is said that the first poison in daddy cannot be cured, but how could the second poison not be discovered by the imperial doctor and so many detoxification masters? This is unreasonable!"

Cheng Guogong sneered, "What's so difficult about this... Think about it, whether it's an imperial doctor or a person in the world, which one is following the pulse diagnosis every day? Who can tell the poison as long as you stop for a while before the pulse diagnosis?" ?
Every time we invite people to detoxify, the people are different, even if they have doubts, it’s just, as it is, it’s aggravated, or it’s simply thought that the poison was poisoned at the beginning, that’s all.

Who would have thought that there would be other people who would continue to be poisoned by a person who has no cure for the poison... Hehe! "Even he himself didn't think of it. Cheng Guogong had to rest for a long time after he said such a long word.

Lu Zhuo couldn't speak for a long time, this was simply beyond his twenty years of life experience.

Cheng Guogong took a breath, raised his hand and patted his son's hand reluctantly, and comforted him: "...you are still young...you have to go through some things to grow. The Duke's mansion has been keeping a low profile these years. There is also a lack of opportunities to practice..."

After saying this, Cheng Guogong gasped again.

"Don't talk about it, Dad, let's rest first." Lu Zhuo gently stroked his father's lean back, feeling sore in his heart.

He is the eldest son, the future heir of the Duke's Mansion, and should have taken on various important tasks in the mansion, but the old father was poisoned under his nose, and he was completely ignorant, not even a little bit vigilant. He cannot forgive himself.

"Tea!" Cheng Guogong leaned on his son's hand and drank a few sips of the qi-invigorating tea that Chu Xu brought. Thanks to this pot of tea, otherwise, he really doesn't know if he can survive.The effect of ginseng soup is not as fast and effective as this tea soup.

Just thinking about it, Cheng Guogong raised his hand and said quickly: "Quick, go clean the room!"

This is already the fourth time he went to clean the room after detoxification... Every time he was almost fainted by the filthy things he discharged.

Damn poison!If there is no one to wait on him, even if he is detoxified, he will be in a mess...

"Does father have someone to suspect?" Back on the bed to rest again, Lu Zhuo still asked this topic, so as not to embarrass his father. After all, his son is also an adult, so it is really inconvenient to serve him like this.

"You don't need to pay attention to this matter, your father will deal with it. You just need to watch...everyone who enters and exits the mansion, remember, it is everyone! Those who enter must grasp the words and deeds accurately; Those who go out must be followed all the way, and all situations... firmly grasp...

I will cut off this black hand myself!
Zhuoer, remember, loose on the outside and tight on the inside!Whether it's scaring the snake out of the grass, or leading the snake out of the hole, there is only one purpose: to expose the enemy himself! "

Cheng Guogong did not answer his son's question directly, but taught him how to deal with the enemy.

Lu Zhuo pondered for a while pinching his fingers, then stood up suddenly, and said, "What Dad said is that my son should go and arrange it again. If the hole is blocked, the snake can't come out..."

Cheng Guogong smiled and nodded, finally making some progress.

The night can always cover everything, good or bad.

In a small courtyard in Cheng Guogong's mansion.

There was a "creaking" door, which was very clear in the silent night, and a black shadow flashed into a room nimbly and lightly like a civet in the dark night.

"You're here..." A young voice sounded in the dark night. The black figure made a careful distinction, gradually adapted to the darkness, and saw the outline of a figure sitting on the bed.

"...Yes, Auntie, I'm here!" Hei Ying stood beside the bed and answered in a low voice.

"Any news?"

"I haven't been able to find out. I only know that the son went out early in the morning and came back to pick up the Duke, and never returned to the mansion." Hei Ying shook his head lightly, regardless of whether the other party could see it or not.

"What's different in the mansion?" The person on the bed moved his hands a little faster while holding the rosary.

"That's not true. However, I heard that there is a bid for a medicine called 'Wan Du Dissipation' in Tongluo Alley today. It is said that it is non-toxic and puzzling!"

"...If he can get rid of the poison, he doesn't have to suffer for so many years, and I don't have to suffer for so many years... I am also the daughter of a good family, and I want to be the wife of a decent family...

Hehe, just to make him happy, he picked me up, not only accepted me in a small sedan chair, but also killed my fiancée!They are so cruel!
...He's either recovered or dead, I'm relieved, I'm afraid that he's going to live and die like this..." The young voice in the darkness gradually weakened.

After a long time, the voice sounded again, "Go, be more careful recently. I will handle things myself. You have already helped me, and the kindness that should be repaid is also repaid. Let's go our separate ways from now on."

"...Yes!" The black figure slowly took a few steps back, and disappeared into the darkness in a flash.What they didn't realize was that another figure in the darkness also left quietly.

This night Cheng Guogong tossed and tossed about a dozen times, maybe more times, until the last two battles, he had no strength, even if he went to the clean room, he had to rely on Lu Zhuo to hold him back and forth. The embarrassment and dignity at the beginning were at this moment There is nothing left, there are only two things left: go to clean the house, and wait to go to clean the house.

Only then did he really understand why there are rumors in the world that anyone who has used the 'Wan Poison Dissipation' will never be able to hide.It was him who had been poisoned for so many years. After detoxification, he also considered passing the title of duke to his son early, and has been hiding behind the scenes since then...

When it was almost dawn, Cheng Guogong finally stopped going to clean the room frequently, and was able to sleep for a while, and Lu Zhuo was replaced by his personal entourage, taking a nap outside.That night, both father and son had a hard time.
