Quick Wear: I've never been a good person

Chapter 237 The Little Scholar Killed by His Classmates (21)

The clan leader has been really frustrated these years. As an elder, he is pointed at and scolded by a younger slave!

If he hadn't taken into consideration the affection between Mr. Yang and the old lady when they were alive, he would have really gone to the yamen to accuse Yang Ruqing of being disobedient and unfilial!

"No, no, no, it's impossible. How could my nephew do such a treasonous and unfilial thing?

However, the mourning period for his mother was over, and the nephew was eagerly waiting for the clan members to come, but in the end, no one showed up on the last day!

My wife said that you haven't visited us since mother passed away.

Madam said, you might just want to sever ties with our branch.

That’s why I’ve been…”

"Hahaha, what a great way to turn black into white and put the blame on someone else!

Those who drove us away were all in your old house. Now go back and carefully examine us to see if we lied to you.

Another thing is that when we were driven out on the street, they might be able to bribe some people.

But I don't believe they can silence the gossips in Yangzhou City!"

After hearing what the clan leader said, Yang Ruqing was too embarrassed to stay there any longer. He stood up and bowed to everyone.

"Please rest assured, I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!"

Yang Ruqing hurried back with Yang Zhong, "Yang Zhong, have those people behaved themselves today?"

Yang Zhong shook his head, “Our people came to report this morning, and each one of them was still extremely arrogant.

They said they were servants of the Qingyang Marquis's mansion, and that when beating a dog, one must look at the owner. "

Yang Ruqing was so angry that her face turned blue. She quickly returned home, but she was out of breath after just a few steps.

Yang Zhong quickly supported him and said, "Master, what's wrong with you?

How about we talk about the servants in a couple of days? The court doctor said you can’t worry about it any more.”

Yang Ruqing shook her head, "No, I must get to the bottom of this matter!

I haven't been very sincere to her over the years, but the family has indeed given her the greatest power.

I never say a word about the truckloads of gifts she sends to her parents' home every year.

So many of my children died in my early years, and I thought I was just born with a strong constitution and it was not time for me to have another child.

But I didn't expect that it was all her doing!

She is so cruel and ruthless! What on earth does she want to do?!

Even if she dies now, if I adopt a son, he will be taken care of by the people she leaves behind...

Tell me, does she really hope that I will be childless and become a lonely person?"

Yang Zhong just silently supported Yang Ruqing and did not respond.

As Yang Ruqing's right-hand man, he always knew what to say and what not to say.

In the early years, several pregnant concubines in the mansion had accidents one after another.

He actually investigated secretly, but couldn't find any evidence at all.

Even though the cousin spoke so confidently, in fact, neither she nor the old lady had any evidence at that time!

Madam's methods are really too powerful. Otherwise, considering how much the old lady hates Madam, how could she allow her to do whatever she wants in the mansion?

After all, the attack in the backyard was so clean and decisive, leaving no trace, and he really couldn't think of anyone else except the head of the family who was responsible.

However, Yang Ruqing has always been very perceptive in political affairs, but he has always been very trusting when it comes to matters concerning his wife.

Once, the old lady mentioned that it was impossible for all the women in the backyard to not be able to keep their children, and she was afraid that someone was causing trouble.

At that time, he was angry with the old lady for a long time.

The reason was to deliberately sow discord between him and his wife.

Otherwise, the old lady would not have brought the cousin to stay on the farm.

Since then, Yang Zhong has withdrawn all the people he sent out to investigate and never tried to find the truth again.

Yang Ruqing suddenly turned to Yang Zhong and said, "Ask Yang Fu to take his men back to Yangzhou.

Go to my mother's dowry farm and gather more people to bring back to the mansion. No matter who they are, tie them up first!

While most of Yu Yunning's people are here, I'll investigate the evil spirits in the mansion for me.

Let's check whether the clan leader and his men really went to Yangzhou back then?"

"Yes, sir! Then let Yang Fu go back to Yangzhou after I take you back home."

With the support of Yang Zhong, Yang Ruqing finally returned to the old house, but then he collapsed.

Fortunately, Yang Zhong was very strong and hugged her from behind, otherwise the back of her head would have been smashed.

Yang Zhong sent the man to the room and quickly sent someone to invite the court doctor.

After the court doctor came over to examine him, he stroked his beard and spoke to Yang Zhong very confidently.

"Master, this is because of the death of his wife, he is too sad and overworked, so he fainted.

I'll give him some medicine, and he'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

However, when Yang Zhong looked at the court physician, he began to doubt him for the first time.

After all, this situation of the master is not new.

But the court doctor seemed to say it very easily every time, but he could never cure the master's illness.

Thinking of those who were imprisoned, Yang Zhong's heart skipped a beat.

Although this court doctor came to the Yang Mansion before the Madam, who knows if he might have been bribed?

So after sending the court doctor away, he ordered someone to call his second son Yang Gui over.

Then whispered in his ear.

"Go and get me some famous doctors from Yongchang City.

Be careful not to be discovered."

"Dad, you are suspicious..."

"Don't tell me! Just do it yourself."

After Yang Gui leaves, ask someone to call Yang Fu over.

After giving these instructions, Yang Fu took a dozen servants and rode out of the village quickly on horseback.

Yang Gui acted quickly and invited an old doctor from the county town in less than an hour.

After the old doctor took Yang Zhong's pulse, he took him out for a detailed discussion.

Yang Ruqing saw them and waved to them.

"If you have anything to say, just say it to my face. There's no need to hide it."

The old doctor paused, bowed to Yang Ruqing, and then replied softly.

"Sir, your condition is due to poisoning."

"what!"

Several people in the room exclaimed in disbelief.

"This is impossible!"

This is Yang Zhong's voice.

Because he was responsible for all of Yang Ruqing's expenses over the years.

If he really got poisoned right under his nose, wouldn't that mean he wasn't serving her wholeheartedly?

Yang Ruqing was also in disbelief, as her health had begun to deteriorate over the years.

But he just thought these problems were caused by getting older.

I never doubted that the reason I was so sick was because I was harmed by someone.

But I didn't expect that this would be the result.

Soon Yang Ruqing thought of the servants in the Yu family who would not even allow him to adopt a son.

I'm afraid those servants are not so loyal to Yu Yunning anymore.

After being shocked, Yang Zhong quickly bowed to the doctor.

"Then may I ask, doctor, can you cure this poison for my master?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "Please forgive my poor medical skills. I really can't do anything."
