The lucky little prince's doting wife

When Xixin returned to the prefect's mansion to meet Master Lin, Zhang Yao walked out of the study with his head lowered.

"Master Zhang," Xixin stood up and saluted Zhang Yao.

Zhang Yao wiped his face and asked Xixin with red eyes: "Have the bodies been buried?"

Xixin replied: "The bodies have been buried."

Zhang Yao: "That's good. You go in and see the eldest master. I'm leaving now."

Xixin watched Zhang Yao walk away, then turned around and asked the guard standing at the bottom of the stairs in a low voice: "What happened to Master Zhang?"

Guard: "I don't know. Master Zhang apologized as soon as he arrived, and he wanted to kneel down before the master."

Xixin and the guards present looked at each other in bewilderment. Young Master Zhang cried and apologized to their eldest master? But no matter what, they would not believe that Young Master Zhang was scolded and cried by their eldest master. Their eldest master was not the kind of person who would do such a thing.

Xixin stood in front of the study door and asked for a meeting. After hearing the eldest master say "Come in" in the study, Xixin pushed the door open and entered the room.

"Master, everything has been done," Xixin reported to the eldest master.

The eldest son was sitting on a chair under the window on the left side of the study. He put down the letter in his hand when he saw Xixin come in. After Xixin finished his report, the eldest son just nodded.

Xixin: "The people from Wuzhou government office must have seen it. I am sure they were peeking from behind the gate of the government office at that time."

The eldest son said, "Go to Xu Yun's house again in two days. Just remember that you can hurt people, but you can't take the lives of the people in Xu's house."

"Yes," Xixin accepted the order.

At this time, a guard outside the study said, "Master Zhang, what's wrong with you?"

"Brother, something bad has happened to me," Zhang Yao's loud voice rang out outside the house.

The eldest son raised his eyes and looked at Xixin.

Xixin quickly turned around and walked to the door of the study, opened the door, and gestured to Zhang Yao who had already run to the door to come in.

Zhang Yao was panicking. Before he even saw the eldest son, he shouted, "Brother, this is bad. The women of the Qing family have been poisoned!"

The eldest son frowned, as if he understood what Zhang Yao said.

Zhang Yao ran up to the eldest son and said in panic, "The women of the Qing family have been poisoned. Their old lady is dead. I saw it with my own eyes."

"Xixin," the eldest son called Xixin, "Go over and take a look."

Xixin answered loudly, "Yes," and ran out of the study.

Zhang Yao turned around on the spot and said to the eldest son with certainty: "It must have been done by Wei Shengwen's people!"

The eldest son: "What's the point of killing the women?"

Zhang Yao: "It must be to scare those who surrender to the court, and to make those who have not surrendered to the court dare not surrender to the court."

The eldest son nodded and said, "What you said makes sense, but the prefectural government is heavily guarded. How did Wei Shengwen's people succeed?"

Zhang Yao was stumped by the eldest son's question. How could he know this? But when he saw the teacup placed next to the eldest son, Zhang Yao's expression changed drastically and he raised his hand to lift the teacup.

The teacup was knocked over by Master Zhang and fell to the ground, spilling tea all over the floor.

Seeing the mess on the ground, Zhang Yao came back to his senses and explained to the eldest son awkwardly, "I was afraid that the tea was poisoned."

The eldest son laughed and said, "The guards made the tea."

"Then," Zhang Yao said, "what about the water?"

The eldest son: "The guards also boiled the water."

Zhang Yao’s head drooped. He was being too suspicious. What would happen if Wei Shengwen’s men got close to the eldest son and poisoned him?
The eldest son: "Take the doctor to the women of the Qing family. No matter whether the emperor will execute them in the end, at least they should not die now."

"Yes," Zhang Yao accepted the order, then said to the eldest son worriedly, "But the doctors are all in the inn." The eldest son said, "Go and ask the doctors in the city to come over. Since we didn't commit the murder, there's nothing we can't let others know about it."

Yes, Zhang Yao became energetic again, obeyed the order loudly, then turned and ran.

The eldest son lowered his head to look at the letter again. The letter had just been delivered by carrier pigeon from the capital. General Hu Xiao of East Zhejiang was about to lead his troops to station in Jiangxi and take charge of Jiangxi's military affairs.

The eldest son had never met General Hu, but he knew that he was his sixth brother-in-law's superior.

The eldest son used a tinder to burn the letter sent by carrier pigeon. The ashes fell into the tea on the ground and quickly melted into the water and disappeared.

Xixin ran back from the courtyard where the women of the Qing family were imprisoned and reported to the eldest son, "The old lady of the Qing family has died of poisoning, and there are also six children under the age of three. They must be too young to withstand the poison and have died."

The eldest son: "Is everyone else okay?"

Xixin: "There are still four people who are seriously poisoned. The others ate less tea and snacks, and some did not eat at all. It seems that their situation is not bad."

The eldest son: "Save him if you can."

Asarum: “Yes.”

The eldest son: "Let Zhang Yao take care of this matter. He is a kind-hearted person."

Xixin thought about how Zhang Yao ran back and hurriedly asked someone to find a doctor, so he smiled and said, "Master is right, Master Zhang is a kind-hearted man."

The eldest son also smiled. With Zhang Yao's personality, there is no chance for him to get involved in the officialdom and engage in intrigue, but it would definitely be good to be friends with him.

Several doctors from Wuzhou City were "invited" over by the soldiers. Before they could even catch their breath, they were urged by Zhang Yao to save people.

At this time, the body of the old lady of the Qing family, whose seven orifices were bleeding, had been moved to the yard and placed together with her body were six other children whose seven orifices were also bleeding.

No one covered the bodies of the old lady and her six younger generations, so the seven bodies lay in the yard. Just one look was enough to irritate the doctors' eyes and make their legs go weak.

"The Wei Party poisoned them," Zhang Yao said to the doctors, "There are still many people poisoned in the house. Check them quickly and save them if you can."

Zhang Yao was very confident, so he was not afraid that what he said would make people feel that he was trying to cover up something, or that he was trying to cover up something. Even if it was Wei Shengwen's minions who poisoned him, he would not cover up the crimes of these bastards.

At this time, another woman's screaming and crying could be heard in the room. Zhang Yao hurriedly said to the doctors, "Someone must have died again. Hurry up."

In the room, a girl of about thirteen or fourteen fell to the ground, her body twitching. Her mother and two aunts pressed her down desperately, trying to relieve her pain.

The doctors entered the room and the soldiers shouted at the three women to step back, but the three women could not hear the soldiers at this moment.

"Drive away," Zhang Yao ordered.

A soldier stepped forward, raised his leg and kicked each of the three women away.

The little girl's body twitched violently twice, and then her head tilted to the left where her mother was sitting.

A doctor hurriedly squatted down, felt the girl's pulse, and then checked her breathing.

"Gone," said the doctor.

Blood flowed out of the little girl's seven orifices. The girl's eyes were wide open and she died with her eyes open.

"Young Master, there are still people who have been poisoned. Let the doctor check them out," Zhou Zheng stepped forward and reminded Zhang Yao who was standing still.

You can’t take care of the dead anymore, you have to take care of the living now.

"Oh, yes," Zhang Yao hurriedly said to several doctors, "Look at the others and see what kind of poison they were infected with."

Several doctors were led by the soldiers to see patients separately and became busy.

"what--"

The little girl's mother suddenly screamed again. The once noble lady pulled her carefully maintained hair and burst into tears. (End of this chapter)
