Chapter 531: Don't Trouble Yourself
531. Chapter 531: Don't Trouble Yourself
Qiao Sheng jumped in surprise, and hurriedly sent Yin Li to find Shi Lin, asking him to summon the Imperial Doctor to see Ouyang Zhi.
She does know a little medical skill, but it's really not much.
Ouyang Zhi stopped her: "No need, I can't hold on much longer; you let—let her—go—go bring Shi Yun."
This.
Qiao Sheng thought it over and still let Yin Li go fetch Shi Yun.
Yin Li left.
Ouyang Zhi then grabbed Qiao Sheng's hand: "Qiao girl, my body is already failing, Shi Yun—just—please take care of him for me."
"Grandma Ouyang, you'll be okay."
Qiao Sheng immediately summoned An Yi and sent him to look for Shi Lin.
An Yi, understanding, sprang up and left.
Qiao Sheng wanted to know what was going on; her gaze fixed on Ouyang Zhi as she asked: "Grandma Ouyang, what exactly happened to you?"
She hadn't spoken yet.
Ouyang Zhi's tears fell: "Qiao girl, I've harbored hatred for so many years, only to realize I hated the wrong person; the man of my husband was not Qi Xing, but I— I killed him…"
"What!"
Qiao Sheng's eyes widened in shock.
"So did you, out of guilt, give yourself medicine, or…"
Ouyang Zhi, calming herself, said: "I didn't give myself any medicine; I was emotionally depressed, then got poisoned, suffered internal injuries, didn't nurture myself properly, and thus became like this now."
She looked a bit better than before.
Qiao Sheng still thought there was a chance of rescue.
Never imagined.
An Yi brought the Imperial Doctor back.
The Imperial Doctor, after taking her pulse, shook his head: "Her five organs and six viscera have already been damaged by poison; now it's like the oil is spent and the lamp burnt out…"
"Is there really nothing that can be done?"
Qiao Sheng was unwilling to accept.
The Imperial Doctor shook his head again.
Suddenly thinking of Spirit Spring Water, Qiao Sheng immediately fetched some to feed Ouyang Zhi; she drank a little and then vomited it out.
"Grandma Ouyang, this is good for you; try to drink it all."
Ouyang Zhi grabbed Qiao Sheng's hand: "Ah Sheng, don't trouble yourself; I'm already beyond saving…"
How could it be like this!
Qiao Sheng stared at Ouyang Zhi and asked: "Grandma Ouyang, who poisoned you? The very person who truly caused Grandfather Shi Yun's death?"
"Yes."
"That person thought that by poisoning me he could survive, but he ultimately underestimated me; not only do I know Poison Technique, my martial skill isn't lacking either, and I took his life on the spot."
"Grandma Ouyang, you've avenged your hatred, but you still have Shi Yun; he's your grandson, how can you bear to leave him alone…"
Qiao Sheng hadn't finished speaking.
Ouyang Zhi cut her off: "Shi Yun isn't alone; he still has you, doesn't he? Over these years you've treated him almost like your own child."
Not waiting for Qiao Sheng to say anything.
"Ah Sheng, don't tell Shi Yun what I've told you. I'll die sooner or later; he'll be sad, but with you all there, he won't be sad for long…"
Words finished.
Ouyang Zhi slipped two keys to Qiao Sheng, telling her that she has a residence outside the Imperial Capital, and to the southeast of the house there is a secret passage where one can see many valuable things.
She intends to give all these to Qiao Sheng.
Qiao Sheng refused: "Grandma Ouyang, I can't take them."
Ouyang Zhi's tone deepened a few degrees compared to before, and her grip on Qiao Sheng's hand grew heavier: "Ah Sheng, you must accept; Shi Yun is now a bit more obedient than before, but still quite worrisome."
Not taking it, she'd be uneasy.
Qiao Sheng accepted.
Ouyang Zhi smiled faintly, then coughed violently.
She was seen spitting blood again.
Qiao Sheng held up water, let her rinse her mouth, and gave her some water to drink.
