Chapter 502 The Truth About Marrying (2)
Shen Yu immediately shut up and looked at the old doctor a little guiltily... She just felt that the scene was too solemn and wanted to liven up the atmosphere.
It’s not that she doesn’t care about the truth about her mother’s past, but Lu Yingxing has always sent people to secretly help investigate. Madam Ye and the old people of the Su family have also been working hard for this over the years, but the clues in Jiangnan were handled too cleanly back then. Now someone suddenly comes out and claims to know the truth?
No matter how you look at it, it looks like a bait specially prepared for them!
Moreover, Prince De’s condition was obviously not right. If he had known this, he would not have allowed Mu’er to go to Nan County yesterday!
Lu Yingxing shook his head and signaled her to be patient, obviously thinking of this as well.
The old doctor couldn't stand the double torture, his voice for mercy became weaker and weaker, and he kept shouting that he was not lying.
Prince De sat in his wheelchair and looked down at him, "Who let you out of the palace back then?"
The old doctor didn't expect this group of people to be so cruel. He just concealed some things and they were discovered. He secretly regretted wanting to use this secret to exchange for his freedom.
But now he was in so much pain that he couldn't think calmly. He was gasping for breath and didn't bother to weigh the pros and cons. He explained the things they wanted to know most, the cause and effect, in a disjointed manner.
The person who let him out of the palace never showed up from beginning to end. The person was a palace maid he had never seen before, about twenty years old. The other party sent him to Jiangnan, arranged a new identity for him, and told him to pretend to be rescued by a scholar named Shen Nian. She forced him to owe him a life-saving grace and promised to repay him in the future.
Then, he was asked to work in a clinic near Shennian Academy and be at your service at any time.
In fact, he was not the old doctor that Shen Yu thought he was. His real age was only thirty-seven. He had been tortured and bullied in the palace for several years, which made him look older than his actual age.
"During my first two years in Jiangnan, I was always worried, but the man who saved me in the palace never showed up again, and he didn't issue any instructions. The shopkeeper saw that I was a good doctor, so he betrothed his only daughter to me. But about two months after my eldest son was born, Shen Nian suddenly came to my house. He used the excuse of saving my life to ask me if I had any medicine that could make people obedient..."
Shen Yu's eyes were cold, and Prince De was gritting his teeth. He gripped the armrest of the wheelchair tightly. If possible, he would like to rush over and beat the man half to death, because he had already guessed what would happen next.
The nightmare-like voice continued to come to my ears, "Although the other party didn't say it explicitly, I know that the person who saved me must want me to get close to Shen Nian, so I have been secretly keeping an eye on his movements. Shen Nian was just a small scholar back then, and he was very close to the teacher's daughter. But since the daughter of Master Su came to visit relatives in Jiangnan, he deliberately created several opportunities for them to meet... So... So..."
Having said that, he secretly glanced at King De who was on the verge of a rage. He saw that he was staring at him intently. His dark eyes made him feel a little breathless, and gradually, a feeling of suffocation came over him.
Shen Yu walked over and asked worriedly, "Godfather, how about I listen?"
After a long time, the King of De shook his head and said, "...I want to listen. Keep talking!"
The old doctor glanced at Shen Yu and inexplicably felt a sense of trust in Princess Zhuo. At least she was a normal person and would not hit people at every turn.
"I guess he wants to do something to Master Su's daughter. How can I not guess the effect of the so-called obedient drug between men and women? But I'm not sure whether I should help. After all, I was sent to Jiangnan... But at this time, a note suddenly appeared on my medicine case, asking me to do as he said..."
"Where is the note?" Prince De suddenly asked.
He shook his head and said, "It was dealt with at that time, and the paper used was from our clinic, so I'm sure there must be one of their people around, so I didn't dare to disobey, and so... I gave him the medicine..." His voice became thinner and thinner, and the last few words almost disappeared between his lips and teeth.
Seeing that everyone was still looking at him, he took a deep breath and said, "Originally, Shen Nian came to me for aphrodisiacs, but I was cautious. After all, she is the daughter of Master Su. I was afraid of getting into trouble, and even more afraid that my wife and children who had finally settled down would be implicated. So I lied to him and said that I didn't know how to mix that kind of medicine. I also persuaded him that even an ordinary doctor could detect the difference after using those medicines, so I only gave him drugs..."
"Ah, right!"
Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, she said hastily, "I can guess what he wants to do, so I prepared enough medicine to make a woman unconscious for a whole night, but he actually suggested that I prepare medicine that would only make her unconscious for half an hour. I didn't know what his intention was, but I still did it... Not long after, it was reported that the daughter of the Grand Tutor and Shen Nian were in love with each other, and I knew that he had succeeded."
Old Master Su, who was sitting on the chair nearby, stared blankly at the scene in front of him. He listened to this man talking about how his beloved daughter was plotted against. Suddenly, he pressed the left side of his chest and fell forward.
Fortunately, Mr. Lu was prepared. He took out the life-saving pills and stuffed two into his mouth. Only then did Mr. Su's breathing gradually calm down.
But tears had already filled his eyes without him knowing when. He clearly... should have had the opportunity to stop all this, but what was he doing at the time? He actually said that his daughter was unreasonable to marry a scholar and scolded her...
There was a lot of anger stuck in Mr. Su's heart, and he felt that he was about to collapse, "Oh my Yixia!"
The old doctor's legs went limp when he heard this, and he fell to the ground from his kneeling position. "Who, who is he..."
Shen Yu sneered, "You mentioned Master Su several times!"
The old doctor looked at him straight with complicated eyes... Lu Yingxing frowned and winked at Cangyu beside him.
The next second, the old doctor's still intact left hand was grabbed and his palm was stretched backwards. If he exerted more force, it would be broken.
"Ah!!! Wait wait, no no, I'm not lying! Everything I said is true!"
Lu Yingxing spoke at the right time, "Why are you looking at Master Su like that?"
This sentence drew everyone's attention back. Apparently, not many people noticed the look in his eyes just now.
"I, I..." Pain came from my hand. "No, no, no, I'm telling you, I have never harmed Master Su, it's just, it's just..."
He closed his eyes, as if he had made a great decision, "It's just that I guess Miss Su's decision to marry Shen Nian should have something to do with Master Su..."
When he said this, not only Grandpa Su, but even Shen Yu was surprised. She didn't dare to ask further because the truth might be too cruel for her grandfather.
"You mean, Yixia knew that the person who hurt her was Shen Nian, but for my sake...she chose to marry him?"
