Chapter 19: The Dong Family
Qingxian Dong family, in the huge mansion, the atmosphere at this time is extremely solemn, sad, a couple looked at the corpse on the bed with a sad face, it was a handsome man who looked weak, lying on the bed calmly, no longer breathing.
On the side, a woman in pajamas lay in front of the bed, crying pear blossoms with rain, and kept calling "husband" in her mouth.
The people around him were so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe, with panicked expressions on their faces.
The two doctors stood aside, you look at me, I look at you, both with helpless expressions.
"Wu'er, why did you leave suddenly, how should you let your mother live......"
The old woman cried with grief, her body trembled, and her hands trembled and touched the man's cold cheeks, unable to believe that her son, who was fine yesterday, was suddenly gone today.
"Slut, it must be you, you broom star, since Wu'er married you, the family hasn't been stable for a day!"
"I asked someone to calculate at the beginning, you are a Kefu life, I shouldn't be soft-hearted and agree to Awen's request......"
At this moment, the old woman suddenly turned her head, looked at the young woman, and scolded angrily.
The young woman also cried extremely sadly, her eyes were red and swollen, and she did not refute her mother-in-law's scolding, and endured it silently.
Suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and a group of officials rushed to the place and quickly surrounded the place.
The one who took the lead was Zheng Hu, Qi Zixiao followed alongside, and Wang Quan also followed with his own toolbox.
As soon as he came in, Qi Zixiao saw this scene in the house and thought of the information he had just learned.
The Dong family is a wealthy local family, with a solid family background, opening two cloth villages, an inn, and a grain shop, and the old man of the Dong family has only one son, called Dong Wen, whose name is very literary and artistic, correspondingly, the body is not good, and there is no way to see many doctors, so he can only drink medicine since he was a child, which is a medicine jar.
However, the Dong family was rich, and they raised Dong Wen smoothly, inherited the family business, and ran it well, and later married a beautiful and virtuous woman named Pan Yue, and the husband and wife worked together to make the Dong family's business more prosperous.
However, this morning, Dong Wen suddenly died violently in bed, and the Dong family came directly to the county government to report the case.
Knowing the general information, Qi Zixiao looked at Dong Wen's wife, who looked very delicate, with a hint of gentleness.
At this time, seeing their arrival, the gorgeously dressed old woman hurriedly got up and said loudly, "Zheng Zhutou, you have to be the master of my son, his death is not clear, there must be a thief!" ”
Seeing the old woman, Zheng Hu nodded solemnly, "Old Madam Dong, don't worry, if someone harms Ling Lang, we will definitely bring him to justice." ”
After speaking, he instructed the servant on the side, "Wang Quan, come forward and check it." ”
As he spoke, Zheng Hu spoke to the woman in front of the bed again, "Mrs. Dong, please step back a little." ”
When the woman heard this, she retreated to the back with a sad face, and a maid brought a coat to put on the other party, but it was directly snatched away by Mrs. Dong, "My son is dead, and you are still crying in this cat and fake mercy!" ”
Seeing this scene, Qi Zixiao's eyes flashed, it seems that the relationship between the Dong family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not very good.
Wang Quan stepped forward to inspect the corpse, while Qi Zixiao and the others took all the people here out one by one, and asked one by one, for example, if anything strange happened here last night, and there were some abnormal movements, what were they doing......
A group of subordinates all shook their heads, saying that the house was very calm last night, and even the young master and his wife were very normal, who knew that when he woke up in the morning, the young master would not be able to do it.
"The doctor has already come to check just now, saying that the young master died of his own congenital disease......
A maid whispered a message.
Dong Wen's congenital health is not good, Qi Zixiao has heard it before, but he is still a little surprised, "Don't you always insist on drinking medicine?" It shouldn't have much of an impact, right? ”
"I can't say for sure, many doctors also said back then, drinking medicine can only be suppressed for a while, as the young master grows up, danger may occur at any time, Madame is usually extremely careful, every time the young master drinks medicine, he will boil it with his own hands, and don't let us do it, but I didn't expect the young master to survive......"
The maid's eyes were red.
Qi Zixiao pulled the doctor over to the side and asked if it was true, the doctor smiled wryly, nodded, and agreed, "Young Master Dong is born with insufficient development in the mother's womb, so it will be extremely weak, the older you are, the more likely it is to be dangerous, if you are not careful, you will not be able to breathe, especially at night, everyone falls asleep, and no one will find out......"
At this time, Qi Zuo had already finished the inspection, looked at Zheng Hu and the others, and nodded calmly, "It has been checked, there are no traces of injury, it can be ruled out that he killed, I tested Young Master Dong's chest, throat, and stomach with a silver needle, and no ingredients of poison were found, and poison can also ......be ruled out."
“…… Young Master Dong was born with poor development, and this time it can basically be determined that it was the poor breathing in the lungs that caused stagnation and death......"
After getting the answer, Mrs. Dong suddenly went crazy, "I don't believe it, you must have checked wrong, my son has been insisting on drinking medicine, how can there be a problem, it must be this woman's reason, she killed my son......"
Zheng Hu looked at the other party helplessly, and motioned to the official on the side to stop the old lady, he looked at the old man Dong, who had not spoken, his eyes were numb, whether they came in just now, or the old lady went crazy, he didn't say anything.
"Old man, the case has been investigated clearly, Ling Lang can rule out his killing, and it can be seen from the confession of the next person that there was nothing abnormal last night, plus Ling Lang was born weak, I think ......"
"I want to summon spirits!"
At this time, Old Man Dong suddenly opened his mouth coldly and looked at Zheng Hu with an indifferent expression.
"What?"
Everyone was startled and looked at each other in shock.
Neither of them could believe that they could hear such words from each other's mouths.
"I don't believe my son will die because of his infirmity, I want him to tell me personally."
The old man of the Dong family had a cold expression on his face, unable to bear the pain of losing his son, "I will invite a master of Taoism to summon the soul of Wu'er, and personally inquire about the cause of his death. ”
Qi Zixiao's eyes narrowed, there are also some gods and wizards in this world, Taoist masters, although such things as conjuring spirits are rare, but they are not nothing.
However, he didn't expect that the old man of the Dong family was ruthless enough, and he was not afraid of attracting some unclean things by using spirits to obtain the truth.
The memory of this body vaguely knows that after a person dies, the soul enters the underworld, and the soul of the soul may not be able to bring back the soul of the dead person safely, if the strength of the person who summons the soul is not enough, or something goes wrong, other souls may follow to the world, and when the time comes, the family of the soul summoner will suffer from the evil ghosts every day.
