Chapter 111: Needle Hidden in the Skull

Zi Yuan wiped her tears and nodded, "Madam, I will help you take the child to wait outside."

As soon as Zi Yuan finished speaking, without waiting for Jiang Li to respond, An Ge'er took two quick steps and threw himself into his mother's arms: "I want mother, An Ge'er, be good. I want to be with mother~"

Seeing this, Jiang Li patted the little fellow's back helplessly and said to Zi Yuan, "It's okay. You guys go out first. The child stays in the room with me."

Zi Yuan pursed her lips, turned around, and went out with Mr. Fang to wait, opening the bead curtain.

Jiang Li pulled An Ge'er away from her arms and repeatedly reminded him, "An Ge'er, be a good boy. Don't disturb your mother while she's working, okay?"

"Yeah." When Ang'er saw the two people leave, he grabbed the little hands in front of him and nodded obediently again, standing quietly by the side.

Jiang Li showed a little relief on his face. He stood up and lifted the thin blanket covering the island owner. He carefully removed the island owner's clothes and checked every part of the old man's body to find out the cause of the island owner's symptoms.

She checked everything from top to bottom, front to back, until beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She even carefully examined the crevices between the island owner's fingernails, but found nothing unusual.

As a last resort, he put on the island owner's thin clothes, thought for a while, and stroked the island owner's cheeks and behind his ears with both hands.

Zi Yuan waited outside for more than half an hour, but still saw no movement from inside, so she couldn't help but look inside.

Mr. Fang was a little calmer, sitting silently in front of the tea table. The tea bowl in his hand had gone from warm to cold, and it was obvious that he was also worried about the situation inside.

Jiang Li checked all the places that could be checked, and even opened the island owner's mouth to check his tongue coating, but still didn't see anything wrong.

[Remember, there is no disease in the world that cannot be diagnosed. Don't rush into it, but carefully consider the important details of the human body.]

Grandpa's words in her mind made Jiang Li fall into deep thought again, and she closed her eyes silently.

Important details of the human body!

Details that can cause people to fall into a coma and have strange pulse patterns!

What will it be?

Suddenly, Jiang Li thought of a possibility. He opened his eyes again and looked firmly at the old man who was sleeping soundly.

She reached out and plucked the jade hairpin from the island owner's bun, and her fingertips slowly sank into the silver threads, feeling every inch, afraid of missing any.

Until the fingertips of both hands slowly stroke from bottom to top of the head.

Finally, the movement of his hands stopped.

The serious face showed a bit of horror at this moment.

Jiang Li slowly pulled out the abnormal hair and pulled out a thin silver needle from the top of his head.

If she hadn't checked carefully enough, no one would have discovered that someone was secretly giving the old island master an acupuncture injection.

When the central nervous system of the human brain is severely damaged, impaired consciousness will occur, manifested as drowsiness, lethargy, and coma.

If the silver needle cannot be removed in time, life will be threatened.

Who could be so cruel?

If you want to assassinate someone at close range without anyone noticing, you must target the person closest to you.

Jiang Li couldn't recover from the shock for a long time.

At this time, An Ge'er suddenly called out: "Mother, An Ge'er wants to drink some water."

Zi Yuan, who was outside the pavilion, heard this and seemed to have found an opportunity to come in, and quickly poured a bowl of tea.

When Jiang Li heard the noise, she quickly hid the silver needle under the soft pillow, and then helped the old islander to tie up his hair so as not to reveal any flaws.

At the moment, she couldn't trust anyone around the island owner, including Zi Yuan and Mr. Fang.

If he even dared to assassinate the island owner, it would be even more impossible for her and Ang'er.

"Madam Li, the young man is thirsty. I'll pour him a bowl of warm tea to quench his thirst." Zi Yuan came in with the tea bowl in both hands, her eyes falling on the couch.

Seeing that the island owner still showed no signs of waking up, his expression showed a hint of loneliness and sadness.

Jiang Li smiled and took the tea bowl calmly, "Thank you, Miss Ziyuan. An'er has had a weak stomach since he was a child and can't drink tea. I'll ask Mingyang to go back to the courtyard to get some herbs and have him take An'er back."

"Okay, ma'am." Zi Yuan didn't doubt it. "May I ask, ma'am, what's the current situation of the island master?"

After Zi Yuan finished speaking, she couldn't help but lower her eyes to wipe away the moisture from the corners of her eyes. It was obvious that she was really worried about the health of the old island owner.

Jiang Li picked up An Ge'er and said, "I'll write a prescription first, and you can ask the servants to boil it for you."

"Okay, ma'am." Ziyuan nodded hurriedly.

"I'll take the child out first. Miss Ziyuan, please help me prepare pen and ink so that I can write the prescription." Jiang Li deliberately sent Ziyuan away.

"Yes, ma'am."

Jiang Li followed Zi Yuan and came out with the bead curtain raised. Mr. Fang in the outer room quickly stood up and bowed again, "Madam Li."

Jiang Li looked at Mr. Fang and said worriedly, "Please wait a moment, Mr. Fang. The island owner is in a special situation right now, and it's not appropriate to disturb his peace."

Mr. Fang understood the meaning of Jiang Li's words. He looked at the inner pavilion through the beaded curtain with concern, but finally suppressed his anxious mood and said, "Okay."

Jiang Li pretended to be calm as she carried the child out of the house and handed him to Ming Yang: "The Island Master still needs to take medicine. Please help me take the child back to the courtyard."

When Ming Yang heard this, his anxious heart calmed down a little.

I thought, since Lady Li said so, the island owner should be fine.

Zi Yuan also found some writing brush and ink. Jiang Li wrote down a prescription for recuperation and handed it to Ming Yang: "Go quickly and come back soon. Oh, and ask Ming Ye to get the medicine himself. There are many herbs that Ming Ye doesn't recognize."

Upon hearing this, Zi Yuan and Mr. Fang couldn't help but look at each other.

They all knew that after Ming Ye was dismissed by the old island master, he started working beside Lady Li.

Unexpectedly, Mingye, a martial artist, also started learning skills from Li Niangzi.

Ming Yang didn't think much about it and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, my lady, I will send the recipe out right away."

Ang'er didn't want to leave Jiang Li, crying and making a fuss: "Mother, Ang'er wants mother, wuwuwu..."

Looking at the heartbroken look of the child, Jiang Li clenched her thumb tightly under her sleeve. She couldn't let the child stay, or things would be very different in Jianglin Pavilion.

I once heard that children can sense things that ordinary people cannot imagine. Ang'er, who never makes a fuss, acted out of character today. I'm afraid he sensed something.

Zi Yuan was right beside him, so Jiang Li had to pretend to be serious and turned back to the house: "Miss Zi Yuan and Mr. Fang should stay outside. I still need to devise a plan for the island master."

Zi Yuan hesitated and stepped forward, "Madam, please let me serve the island master with you."

Jiang Li sat down on the small chair in front of the couch, looked up at her with a calm expression.

Could it be Ziyuan?

In Jianglin Pavilion, only Ziyuan can serve the old island master closely. She looks to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, which is the prime of her life.

She has a quiet and gentle temperament, and possesses a snow-white complexion that is different from most girls and wives on the island. It can be seen that she is well-fed in Jianglin Pavilion. She wears silk and cotton material that is rare on the island, and the pearls and jade on her head are more valuable than those worn by the daughters of wealthy families.

It can be seen that Laodao Pavilion treats her very well. If it is really Ziyuan, why would she do this?

It is undeniable that the person Jiang Li is most suspicious of, besides Zi Yuan, is Mr. Fang.

In any case, fortunately the island owner has not yet woken up, and can temporarily delay the person who is plotting to harm him.

At least before Ming Yang conveyed the message to Ming Ye—!
