No one expected that the British Duke, who was thought to be in a coma, the imperial doctor was at a loss, and wanted to make a public announcement to seek medical treatment, but the British Duke, who was in danger, came to life.
The Zhang clan members who walked out of the hall were thankful that the British father had survived, but they were speechless and did not dare to say anything.
They all saw Wu's performance just now, and they were afraid that there was really something untoward in it.
The eldest lady was about to convict the Wu family, but who would have thought that the British father would arrive in time and drive them all out of the hall.
Several tribesmen looked at each other and sighed. The eldest lady was still too young. She shook her head.
Yang and Huo Erhuai walked out of the hall and passed by the Zhang clan. Someone greeted them, but the couple chose to turn a blind eye.
Still angry.
Seeing that Xi'er was about to clear the obstacles and avenge her mother, she never thought that the Duke of Guo would appear!
The Duke of Guo didn’t show up earlier or later, so why did he show up at that time?
They also kicked out all the outsiders present. This was obviously an attempt to favor the Wu family!
I just pity their Xi'er and Nian'er, they didn't trample Wu under their feet this time, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future.
The couple even regretted letting their two children return to the Zhang family.
After the outsiders left, only people from the British government were left in the hall.
After the juniors were dismissed, there were still left in the hall the dowager's wife, the couple with the second and third bedrooms, the two aunts from the eldest bedroom, Zhang Jie who refused to leave, and Zhang Biyao, Huo Xi, Huo Nian and the Wu family who stayed behind.
The madam glanced at Huo Xi and Huo Nian, and the servants who were serving them also stayed behind. She wanted them to leave, but Grandma Ma and others were unmoved. When she looked at Huo Xi again, she was unwilling to even open her mouth.
The madam had no choice but to give up.
Zhang Fu glanced at Huo Xi and told Zhang Jin: "Go in person and follow Nannan's people to get the things."
Zhang Jin nodded and left the hall with Tinglei.
"Wen Bi." Mrs. Tai called out and wanted to stop her, but Zhang Fu ignored her.
"My lord! Doesn't your lord believe in me either?"
Wu took the handkerchief and wiped her tears again: "Today, I was insulted repeatedly by a junior, will the Duke just watch it?"
"Father, father, you have to make the decision for mother!" Zhang Jie also threw himself in front of Zhang Fu.
Zhang Fu coughed a few times and asked him to go back and sit down with a tired look on his face.
Zhang Jie refused and was called back by Zhang Biyao.
Zhang Biyao felt very uneasy. What exactly she was uneasy about, she couldn't tell clearly. Some of her hearts were beating so fast that she couldn't rest at peace.
After glancing at her mother and then at the calm Huo Xi across from her, she felt even more panicked. She lowered her eyebrows.
Seeing Zhang Fu's sick look, Mrs. Tai couldn't bear it and wanted to ask everyone to leave, but she looked at Huo Xi and then at Wu, but she didn't say anything.
Anyway, there must be a separation between one and two today, and there cannot be two winds blowing in the house at the same time.
The madam sighed deeply and felt a little powerless.
Unable to bear his son's troubles, he asked Huo Xi, "Did you just talk about the Sha family tomb in Shexian County? What's going on? How does it involve personnel affairs in Shexian County?"
Huo Xi glanced at Wu and saw that she looked uneasy. He didn't dare to look at her and smiled: "Oh, it's nothing. I just heard about a strange incident in Shexian County."
The hall was eerily quiet. They were all human beings and no one was willing to talk.
Grandma Ma refused to let go of such a good opportunity: "Girl, what kind of strange thing is it? Grandma is very curious. How about you tell me about it?"
Huo Xi nodded cooperatively: "Okay. It just so happens that Ting Lei's things haven't been picked up yet. Over there in She County, I heard that there was a woman named Sha who married the youngest son of the local magistrate. Her life was originally rich and happy, but...
Because she had not been pregnant for many years, she was disliked by her husband's family, and she was depressed and depressed. Her body was declining day by day, and the man even started to attract bees and butterflies outside..."
"Then, one of Mrs. Sha's sisters came to the house and said she wanted to take care of her, so she stayed in her courtyard. Mrs. Sha felt that she didn't have much time left, so she kindly connected her with her man..."
"Isn't this great? It's better to take advantage of outsiders than to take advantage of your own friends," said Mother Ma.
"It's quite good. Seeing that her friend and her man were getting along well, Mrs. Sha thought that the matchmaking was successful, and even created opportunities for the two of them to die peacefully. Only her mother-in-law couldn't bear it, and hired famous doctors everywhere for her.
As things got better day by day, Mrs. Sha still felt guilty for her friend, so she allowed her to come in and treat her as an equal. But she didn't expect that one day, she fell asleep and never woke up."
"Ah, how could it be? Has the condition changed? Or is there something else going on?"
Everyone in the hall also looked at Huo Xi, attracted by the story.
"Mrs. Sha's husband's family only said that she died of illness, but her natal family insisted that it was her sister who harmed her. However, after checking later, it was just that there was too much cypress kernel in the spices and she ate something that was incompatible with it, so she did not die. But
The Sha family didn't believe it, and even said they wanted to use a pestle for autopsy, and they went to the Yamen Gate every day to make trouble. The county magistrate drove the Sha family away, fearing that things would get worse. In the end, the Sha family was so angry that they refused to let their daughter be buried in the ancestral grave of her husband's family."
"and after?"
"Later I heard that Mrs. Sha's friend was afraid that the Sha family would retaliate against her, so she was so scared that she left her hometown and even gave up her good family relationship. I heard that she went to join relatives in other places. Even her family finally left their hometown.
"
Zhang Fu's hands tightened.
Except for Zhang Jie who didn't hear anything, everyone in the hall lowered their heads. Few people knew Wu's hometown, but Zhang Biyao knew that her mother was from She County.
The hall was eerily quiet.
But Mother Ma was not used to it, and she discussed with Huo Xi with great interest: "Girl, do you think it was really Mrs. Sha's friend who harmed her? If that is the case, she is too impatient. If she waits a little longer, Mrs. Sha may
Even if she dies, she can be the head wife. Even if Mrs. Sha is in good health, she can't be the head wife. But Mrs. Sha can't give birth to a child. Her son is more valuable than his mother, so she still has the final say in the backyard?"
"Yeah, I'm a little too impatient." Huo Xi said calmly.
Wu didn't expect that she would reveal her past, right? Did she think she was superior to others?
But I haven't wiped my butt yet.
Wu clenched her molars, feeling a huge hatred in her heart.
Sha Yueying thought she was compatible with her, but she didn't know that the marriage was snatched from her hands! Just because her family background was low, she couldn't even become a wife. She was not in a hurry and wanted to wait for her to die, but
She's getting better again.
Even if Sha Yueying promised her to let her in and be equals, how could his wife and concubine be the same!
Huo Xi felt much better when she saw her ferocious expression.
Soon Tinglei and Zhang Jin searched the Wu family and Wu's room for the real spices she had hidden.
"Aunt Wu, the spice you added with Bai Ziren is just to deceive others. In fact, the spice you handed to Zhishu was probably the kind that Uncle Jin had. But you didn't expect that I would have someone change it.
Already."
Mrs. Wu knew that she was probably going to have a hard time today, so she didn't even want to answer the question and was just thinking about how to break the situation.
"You didn't give much. It burned for half an hour and it was gone. Not even a drop of ashes fell. You thought that if you took both spices, even if you wanted to search them, what you left behind would be the one with cypress added."
The spice of benevolence is only slightly cold, and no one can blame you. You think you are smart, but you didn't expect me to retaliate with tooth, so I also tried to change the situation."
Moreover, he was afraid that Wu had made many preparations. After replacing the spices with Bai Ziren, Huo Xi destroyed the spices and put other spices in the incense burner, just to let Zhang Fu sleep for a few more days.
However, she originally wanted Zhang Fu to sleep for a few more days, and then give him the antidote after she had sorted things out and dealt with Wu. Unexpectedly, he was indeed strong and woke up two days earlier.
Huo Xi turned to look at him. This time, the evidence was conclusive. What would he do? Will he stop her?
