Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations
Wu Yaqing looked up at Lu Yichen, noticing his concern for Lu Yice, and quickly said, “By tomorrow, the blood Gu in your brother’s body can be completely cleared.”
“I’ll feed him,” Lu Yichen nodded, taking the bowl and spoon from Bao
Linjiang’s hands.
Perhaps due to the telepathic connection between twins, Lu Yice woke up, visibly delighted to see Lu Yichen, weakly calling out, “Brother…”
A softness touched Lu Yichen’s heart, his resentnt montarily set aside,
“Don’t talk, eat.”
Lu Yice smiled and nodded, “Okay.”
For the first ti in over two decades, the brothers shared a peaceful mont together in the sa room.
Dawn turned to dusk, and the night passed in a blink.
At the Ning Residence.
Ning Yuting stood by the window, his face cold and silent since his second and third uncles were taken away the day before, burdened with heavy thoughts, causing concern.
Chu Qingyue approached Ning Yuting from behind, gently calling out,
“Yuting…”
Ning Yuting turned and embraced Chu Qingyue, “I’m fine.”
He couldn’t accept that his uncles had conspired to kill his parents, especially when his mother was pregnant. The pain was indescribable.
Chu Qingyue felt deeply for him, “After this is over, let’s go pay respects to your parents, okay?”
Ning Yuting softly agreed.
Suddenly, rapid footsteps disrupted the room’s tranquility. Chunh reported, “Young Master, Young Madam, Old Master has fainted.
Ning Yuting’s expression darkened further, and he quickly led Chu Qingyue out.
In the room, Grandfather Ning lay on the bed, eyes closed, his hair turned white overnight.
Ning Yuting rushed in, kneeling by the bed, “Grandfather, I’m sorry…
Grandfather Ning opened his eyes, gently stroking Ning Yuting’s head, “It’s not your fault. I didn’t raise them right, leading them to beco ruthless, disregarding familial ties.”
Tears welled up in Ning Yuting’s eyes, “Grandfather…”
Grandfather Ning looked upwards, his gaze filled with unspeakable sadness,
“I’m fine, don’t worry.”
Chu Qingyue, witnessing this scene, left the room and told Chunh, “I’m going to find my sister to check on grandfather. If Yuting asks, let him know.”
“Yes, Young Madam.”
Chu Qingyue hurried off.
Lord Zhang’s Estate.
Chu Qingzhi and the others stayed in Lu Yice’s room overnight, progressing into the latter stages of the Gu removal process.
The butler arranged a lavish breakfast, “Miss Qingzhi, the two young doctors,
Miss Yaqing, please have breakfast.”
Wu Yaqing opened the door, “Bring the breakfast in.
“Yes.” With a gesture from the butler, maids flowed into the room like water, setting down the breakfast and quickly leaving without delay.
With breakfast served, Wu Yaqing promptly closed the door, “Finally, we can have breakfast.”
Lu Yichen showed concern, “You’ve been up all night too. Have breakfast and then go get so rest.”
Wu Yaqing waved her hand and refused. “I’ll go back with Qingzhi.
Chu Qingzhi ntioned, “It won’t be finished here until the afternoon. I can’t leave until then.”
Wu Yaqing did not care. “It’s fine. Half a day will pass quickly. There’s no one in the residence now. It’s boring to go back. Why not stay with everyone?”
No one tried to persuade Wu Yaqing further; indeed, being alone could be quite boring.
The butler ca to report, “Miss Qingzhi, the Young Madam of the Ning family has co to see you.”
Why has my second sister co?
Chu Qingzhi quickly gave so instructions to Yuan Hongjun and Bao Linjiang, then headed out, “Where is my second sister now?”
“Please follow , miss.”
Chu Qingyue was pacing anxiously in the reception room. After a few rounds, she finally saw her sister, “Fifth sister.”
Chu Qingzhi asked worriedly, “Second sister, why have you co?” Speaking rapidly, Chu Qingyue said, “Grandfather fell ill upon hearing that the second uncle and third uncle were arrested. Fifth sister, can you spare so ti to see grandfather?”
“Just wait for a mont.”
“Ok.”
Chu Qingzhi returned to Lu Yice’s room, writing down detailed instructions for what needed to be done next, “Yuan Hongjun, Linjiang, if I don’t return, proceed according to what1 s written on this paper.
“Understood, Master.”
Chu Qingzhi went to the reception room to et up with Chu Qingyue and returned to the Ning residence together.
At the Ning Residence.
Chu Qingzhi checked Grandfather Ning’s pulse, “He’s overly heartbroken, his spirit is damaged, but there’s nothing else wrong. I’ll prescribe a calming and heart-nourishing formula. Take it and rest well without worrying too much, and you’ll gradually recover.”
Chu Qingyue said, “Yuting, you take care of your grandfather. I’ll go get the dicine.”
Ning Yuting nodded, “Okay.”
Chu Qingzhi wrote down the prescription, and together with Chu Qingyue, they went to the pharmacy to get the dicine. Then Chu Qingyue returned ho to prepare it, while Chu Qingzhi went to the General’s Mansion.
Tang Jinghong was surprised to see Chu Qingzhi suddenly appear, “Qingzhi, what brings you here?”
Chu Qingzhi said, “I’ve co to take that coachman to the Ministry of Justice. The case involving the Ning family needs to be resolved.
Tang Jinghong replied, “I’ll go with you to the Ministry of Justice. I have so matters to discuss with Ren Buqing as well.”
“Okay.”
Ministry of Justice.
Ren Buqing personally ca to greet them at the entrance, “Miss Chu, General
Tang.”
As they walked and talked, Chu Qingzhi asked, “What’s the result of the interrogation?”
Ren Buqing expressed difficulty, “Neither has confessed, and it’s problematic to use torture. We’re at a stalemate.”
“I’ll join the interrogation.”
“Thank you, Miss Chu.”
In the prison.
Second Master Ning and Third Master Ning were locked together. The two of them, who used to be prominent, had changed into dirty prison clothes and were leaning against the wall. Their heads were lowered, and it was unknown what they were thinking.
The jailer opened the cell door and led Second Master Ning out for interrogation.
Chu Qingzhi didn’t want to waste ti, so she secretly used the Truth Spell. “Second Master Ning, tell about how you colluded with Third Master Ning to murder First Master Ning.”
This unconventional interrogation thod caught Ren Buqing off guard. Could such questioning elicit an answer?
After a mont of internal struggle, Second Master Ning angrily confessed, “Yes, it was both of us against our elder brother. But it’s not our fault; bla my father!”
Chu Qingzhi was speechless, “You commit wrongs and yet bla others. Aren’t you ashad?”
Second Master Ning showed no remorse, instead feeling justified, “What do I have to be ashad of? My father blatantly favored our elder brother, teaching him by his side while neglecting us, never taking us seriously from the day we
were born.”
“Could you be misunderstanding sothing?” Chu Qingzhi questioned, “Your father built mansions of the sa size for all three brothers, and since childhood, your expenses have been nearly equal, indicating no favoritism. As for taking your elder brother under his wing, that’s normal since he is the heir to the Ning family. How could he manage the family business without talent and knowledge?”
In this era, it was customary for the eldest legitimate son to inherit the family business, and there was nothing to debate about that.
