Chapter 165: I've been drinking medicine for so many years
The old butler looked into his fierce eyes and said:
"I know what you're trying to say, and I know what you're going to ask me next, but the only thing I can tell you is something I know better, and maybe I don't know anything else."
"As for the puppet forces cultivated by the elders of the Fan Family, even they themselves can't understand it very clearly, and they are a very decentralized system within themselves. It is only when the knowledge of several elders is taken together that it is possible to be the most complete. The old butler said these words straight to the point.
His words made Fanli speechless, and Fanli panicked for a while, and he didn't know what he was going to ask next.
He may be able to learn the truth about the events of the year from him, but after thinking about it, Fanli still didn't ask the old housekeeper too closely.
Fanli was thinking about what secret he found in the Liang family back then? It actually made the Liang family give a chase and kill order, which then caused a war between the Liang family and the Chen family, and the Fan family participated in it as a last resort.
Fanli and knew that he was asking about this matter too closely, and the result might not be as he thought.
"The medicine is cold, hurry up and drink the medicine. You've not been in good health since you were a child, so let's drink these pills first. The old butler said with some apprehension, his eyes as if they were soaked with tears just now.
Fanli looked back at the bowl of medicine just now, and walked over step by step, only to see that the medicine in the bowl did not look like the medicine just now.
Then he slowly reached for the medicine, and when it came to his mouth, he stopped to look at the medicine in his hand, and then looked back at the old butler behind him.
Fan Li then took the medicine and drank it, his eyes still fixed on the old butler in the chair. And I saw that his gaze at this time looked like he was extremely listless, and he looked at the front in a daze.
Fanli swallowed it one by one, he had drunk the medicine for so many years, and he was most familiar with the taste of this medicine, but there was obviously something wrong with the medicine he drank this time, and the taste was not as pungent as usual.
After drinking the medicine, the old housekeeper seemed to come out of the memories of the year in a trance, and slowly stood up by holding his legs.
So at this time, he walked alone in front of Fanli, cleaned up the things on the table, and took the remaining medicine residue away for him.
But when the old butler was about to pick it up, he found that there was a trace of blood in the medicine bowl, and the movements in his hand to hold the bowl stopped, only to see him staring at the bowl in his hand.
After hesitating for a while, he didn't say anything, but continued to carry the bowl by himself and prepared to leave.
Fanli knows that the reason why he hasn't coughed up blood for so many years is because he has been insisting on drinking this medicine.
And the reason why he didn't hide it just now was because today's old housekeeper, that is, the puppet who ran out of the Liang family in front of him, confessed to him about the events of the year.
Since his father's death, Fanli has suspected that there is something wrong with the medicine he has been drinking, and later when he secretly stopped taking the medicine for a while, he found that he would cough up blood soon.
But drinking this medicine is equivalent to drinking chronic poison, and simply put, this herb is harming your own life.
He didn't know why he would cough up blood once he stopped taking the medicine, and it seemed that the old housekeeper must know about this situation.
Fanli was thinking about the blood he had vomited in the bowl just now, and the old butler had already understood that he had discovered this fact.
Fanli has been thinking about a question, he doesn't know how many secrets are still hidden in the inner courtyard of this Fan's family.
How many people died in that great war? How many people died? Why did the culprit survive now? And it's someone he knows so well. Everything in front of him made Fanli a little unbelievable.
Suddenly, news came from here quickly, saying that the eldest lady of the Fan family, who was married to the Jiang family, sent someone to inform her. The Jiang family has been active recently, and they only know what they are planning in secret, and they are very secretive about the specific actions.
Fanli is now a big head, and I haven't finished solving the internal affairs of my own family, and suddenly there is another Jiang family. Not to mention other issues, the key is that this Jiang family is the head of the four major families, what is he acting in secret? I'm sure other families can't get out of it.
"Got it, you go back first. Bring the man sent by the eldest lady to my study at once. I have something to say to him. Fanli said as he walked in the direction of the study.
A man walked in the direction of the study, followed by the man brought by the servant.
Fan Li sat alone in his study, and saw that some of the kitchen would be dusty. He gently dusted it off with his hand, and time suddenly made the study a little smoky.
Looking at the pot of begonia flowers he placed on the windowsill in front of the study, he still remembers it very deeply, it was his father's favorite flower during his lifetime.
I don't know why, the vitality of that flower seems to be endless, so many years have passed, how many springs, summers, autumns and winters have passed? But when it comes to the flowering season, it is still so luxuriant.
Open the window and let in a ray of sunlight, the sunlight gives people a very warm tone, Fan Li stood in front of the window with his eyes closed, admiring this warmth, he had hardly entered this study since his father left.
Just when he was hesitating and in a daze, the subordinate quickly brought in the person sent by his sister.
This person was secretly sent from the Jiang family by his sister who worked so hard, so there must have been something important and urgent in the Jiang family, otherwise my sister would not have spent so much energy to arrange for this person to come all the way.
When he walked in directly, he saw that this was a boy about fourteen or fifteen or sixteen, the boy looked very immature, and his face revealed a bit of innocence.
But as soon as he entered the door, Fanli had already noticed that he had come for a purpose this time.
As soon as the boy entered the house, he looked around, and the boy sat down without eagerness, and then he turned his gaze to the servant behind him, and when he understood what she meant, he let the servant go down first.
From this difficulty, it can be seen that this boy's mind is definitely not like that of his peers, and he will be overly cautious and careful about everything.
