Chapter Twenty-Six: No Way Back

An Yanzeng only came back in the afternoon.

At that time, Du Rongzhi had just taken a nap, and saw the joy that Mama An couldn't hide between her eyebrows, and knew that An Yanzeng's errand this time must have done well, and she didn't know what her father would do with Aunt Zhao, so she quickly packed up her makeup and led Qinghe to see him in the west.

An Yanzeng told him everything about going to Du's house to deliver the letter today.

Although there was a letter from the young lady and a doctor explaining the benefits in detail, the old man was still skeptical, and bluntly said that he had never heard such a ridiculous thing again...... But it was a matter of the safety of his wife and the unborn young master, so he hurriedly ordered someone to search Aunt Zhao's residence, and sure enough, he found the harmful thing...... The little one simply concocted it according to the law according to the situation this morningβ€”using the golden silk snow raised in the lady's room......"

Du Rongzhi nodded, "Aunt Zhao has been respectful and humble for many years, and she is very pitied by her father. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Then he asked, "Did she confess herself?" ”

"It's all confessed." An Yanzeng said disdainfully, "This Aunt Zhao is also a master who doesn't shed tears when she doesn't see the coffin." Previously, she searched for spices in Luoyingxuan, but she also flatly denied it, saying that she was framed by someone, until the old man brought her brother too...... There are all human and material evidence, so I have to confess. ”

Du Rongzhi said coldly, "What did she say?" My mother has always treated her well, so why should she take revenge? ”

An Yanzeng said, "She said that she was sincerely grateful for her wife's kindness to her and her uncle, and wanted to serve her husband wholeheartedly for the rest of her life...... But because I have noticed that my wife's health is different recently, I suspect that my wife is pregnant...... I was afraid that Mrs. Lin'er would shake the uncle's status in the mansion when he gave birth to Lin'er, so he was confused for a while and did such a thing that people and gods were angry about. ”

"Ridiculous!" Du Rongzhi said angrily, "Not to mention that I still don't know whether my mother is male or female in her womb, just that my eldest brother has been pampered by his parents all kinds of times over the years, and what kind of food, clothing, and play is not the best?" In this way, she is still greedy and insufficient, do you really think that the entire Du family has long been in her pocket?! ”

"The young lady is angry." Mama An hurriedly persuaded.

Du Rongzhi took a deep breath, "You go on." ”

An Yanzeng nodded, and said, "It just so happened that her brother went to the north corner to buy flowers and plants a while ago, and overheard someone mention that the floral fragrance of Jin Sixue and the fragrance in the rhizome are counterproductive, and can produce a highly toxic ...... She secretly colluded with her brother, and the two hit it off, so they bought a batch of golden silk snow at a high price to make incense...... He was afraid that the symptoms would be too obvious and suspicious, so he wore clothes smoked with this incense every day and swaggered in front of his wife...... In this way, day by day, although the poison cannot attack immediately, it slowly penetrates into the internal organs, and after a long time, even if it does not cause the wife to be stillborn, I am afraid that it will be difficult to give birth to a healthy child in the future......"

"What a poisonous woman!" Du Rongzhi slapped the table and hurriedly asked, "How is my mother now?" ”

"Don't worry, young lady," An Yanzeng said busily, "Now that the lady has been in contact with that poisonous incense for a short time, the pulse is not abnormal, for the sake of insurance, the doctor has prescribed some nourishing decoction for her, and there should be no major problem." ”

Du Rongzhi breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and was silent for a long time before saying, "Mother learned about this...... It must be very sad, right? ”

"Yes." An Yanzeng said, "Madame is kind-hearted, and it is really not worth spending half of her mind for this kind of wolf-hearted person." ”

Du Rongzhi smiled bitterly and shook her head, "What does my father plan to do with Aunt Zhao?" ”

"The old man meant that he was going to tie up Aunt Zhao and her brother and send them to the official for investigation...... But Mrs. said that Aunt Zhao gave birth to the uncle for the lord, even for the sake of the uncle, and it is not appropriate to make this matter known to everyone, otherwise the uncle will be in the house in the future, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to raise his head...... I have already persuaded the master. ”

Murdering the master's mother and mutilating the heirs, according to the laws of this dynasty, should be punished. Mother, this means that they are going to let them live.

It's just that......

"Brother Zeng......" Du Rongzhi paused, "You said this...... Is my eldest brother really unaware of this? ”

An Yanzeng was slightly stunned, then lowered his head and muttered for a while before he said slowly, "...... To say the small, with the character of the uncle, the little one doesn't believe that he will do such a thing. Aunt Zhao also said that she conspired with her brother in this matter, and the uncle did not know about it. ”

Du Rongzhi nodded lightly.

It's just that no matter whether he knows it or not, or whether he is involved in it or not, from now on, it will be impossible for them to go back to the past between father and son, mother and son, brother and sister......
