When Xie Yingmian transmigrated to become Prince Ling's joy-bringing consort, Prince Ling had only one breath left.
She was being held by the wet nurses, forced to drink poisoned wine as ...
Chapter 478: So, he has been playing dumb
Xie Yingmian nodded: "It is indeed irresponsible."
"I'll investigate. If I find out who put it there, I'll deduct his monthly salary and annual bonus. Uncle Fan, you and Qing Huang should have a good chat. I'll give you an explanation after I'm done investigating."
After saying that, Xie Yingmian put the storybook into his sleeve.
Fan Jingzhou: ...
His limited edition storybook!
He hasn't finished reading it yet.
Fan Jingzhou wants to come back.
He stretched out his hand several times, and when he saw that the child was quite big, he silently retracted his hand.
On the first day of meeting his eldest son, he couldn't leave a bad impression on the new son, so he had to maintain his tall father image.
Fan Jingzhou said: "My dear, let's continue."
Qinghuang:......
Keep going, he can hardly make up any more stories.
Calling him dad is too difficult to say.
After thinking for a moment, Qing Huang changed his tone: "Father, you are still seriously ill and you should rest first. I have rested for three days and there are still many patients waiting for my treatment."
"Well, I'll come and have lunch with you at noon."
Calling him father is much easier than calling him dad.
Fan Jingzhou: "It's so tiring, why don't you ask for a leave?"
Qing Huang: "The patient is waiting for me. If he waits for an extra hour, he will feel uncomfortable for an extra hour."
Fan Jingzhou nodded sensibly: "Okay, go and do your work, don't worry about me."
"By the way, come with me to the Fan family in a few days. I'll introduce your uncle and his family to you, and take you to the Fan family genealogy. Some people in the Fan family may be blind, but it doesn't matter. I can beat you up if I want, scold you if I want, and I'll take the blame if I beat you to death."
Qing Huang: I can sense that my future life may be colorful.
…
On the return carriage.
Xie Yingmian took out the storybook.
When I saw the content on the first page, my eyes sparkled.
The further he looked, the wider his eyes became and his cheeks turned slightly red.
Yu Lingye said several words, but she didn't respond, so he moved closer to her curiously.
Xie Yingmian immediately closed the book.
Yu Lingye raised an eyebrow: "I can't watch?"
Xie Yingmian: "Yes, it's not suitable for you to watch."
Yu Lingye: ...
Just looking at the cover, you can tell that the content of this book is not very serious.
They have done all sorts of indecent things, so why can't they read indecent books together?
"This book is not worthy of His Royal Highness Prince Ling. I can't let such low tastes pollute a flower of yours." Xie Yingmian put the storybook away seriously and decided to study it carefully when no one was around.
Yu Lingye became even more curious.
He secretly wrote down the name and asked Fu Mo to buy a copy when he was free.
Xie Yingmian changed the subject: "Second Uncle Fan, do you really not have any doubts at all?"
Yu Lingye said, "He never believed it."
Xie Yingmian slowly typed a question mark.
Yu Lingye said, "Second Uncle Fan has always been carefree and eccentric, but in reality, he is a very careful and principled person."
"Even if he was drunk and unconscious, he would not harm a woman."
Xie Yingmian: "You said he was drunk and unconscious. If he is unconscious, how can he know what happened?"
Yu Lingye glanced at Xie Yingmian and said, "You are a doctor."
Xie Yingmian: "Does this have anything to do with whether I'm a doctor?"
Yu Lingye: "When slightly tipsy but conscious, they might have indiscriminate sex."
"People who are very drunk are usually unable to have an erection."
Xie Yingmian: "From a medical point of view, it does make sense."
"However, individual differences are very obvious and we cannot generalize."
Xie Yingmian: "You just said that Second Uncle Fan doesn't believe Qing Huang is his son? But he doesn't act like it."
Yu Lingye said: "Operation normally."
"It doesn't matter whether Qing Huang is his biological son or not. What matters is that he really needs Qing Huang."
"Second Uncle Fan has been away from the Fan family for so many years, and the power of the first branch of the Fan family has almost been completely eroded and divided up by the second and third branches."
"The Fan family's main branch is not prosperous. The only male, Fan Yue, has a broken leg and has become a cripple. This has also caused the Fan family army to be leaderless."
"I've already found out that after the news of Fan Yue's broken leg reached the Fan family, the second branch of the Fan family wanted to adopt a son into the name of the first branch of the Fan family, hoping to use this method to take over the Fan family army."
"This matter is already a done deal. The Fan family has already agreed, and the head of the Fan family has no legitimate reason to refuse."
"Second Uncle Fan left Shangjing with the reputation of being his nemesis. He was away from Shangjing for too long. Even if he returned, it would be difficult for him to turn the tide."
"Uncle Fan is well aware of the predicament he faces."
"Just at this moment, Qing Huang appeared."
"Qing Huang and Second Uncle Fan look so similar. As long as Second Uncle Fan insists that Qing Huang is his son, it will be difficult for others to doubt it."
"With Qing Huang here, Qing Huang is the legitimate heir. The second and third branches of the Fan family will not be able to legitimately adopt a child, let alone steal the Fan family army."
"It can be said that the appearance of Qing Huang is a timely help to Second Uncle Fan."
Xie Yingmian understood.
It turns out that Fan Jingzhou has been pretending to be stupid.
The old man pretended very well and she couldn't see any flaws at all.
"You young men from aristocratic families are really full of tricks," Xie Yingmian said, "I almost got tricked by him."
Xie Yingmian asked, "Second Uncle Fan knows that Qinghuang is not his son. He brought Qinghuang back to the Fan family and made him the legal heir. Isn't that the same as giving away the military power of the Fan family?"
Yu Lingye smiled and said, "Yes."
"Second Uncle Fan is showing kindness to us."
"He should have understood our purpose."
"He took advantage of the situation and recognized Qing Huang, simply because he wanted a win-win situation with us."
Xie Yingmian sighed, "Don't judge a person by his appearance."
If Yu Lingye hadn't mentioned it, she would have always thought that Fan Jingzhou was just an older man with a second-year syndrome, and a serious one at that.
After Yu Lingye analyzed it for her, she realized belatedly that Fan Jingzhou was a black-bellied Husky.
It looks silly on the outside, but is filled with black sesame filling on the inside.
Yu Lingye narrowed his eyes, looking rather gloating: "The Fan family is about to get busy."
"Go and see the excitement when you have time."
Xie Yingmian: "This is not your character."
Yu Lingye: “Indeed.”
"But I still like to watch the hustle and bustle of the Fan family."
Xie Yingmian: "Has the Fan family ever offended you?"
Yu Lingye: "The second and third branches of the Fan family have offended me."
Xie Yingmian became interested: "Tell me in detail."
Yu Lingye: "Years ago, when I was doing business, they teamed up to set a trap for me. It happened that the Fang family was using my mother to drain the money from Prince Ling's Mansion. My funds were cut off and I almost lost everything."
"I was able to get rid of it in time and survived the loss of my arm. Although I have survived the crisis, those years were really tough."
He always remembered this grudge.
Xie Yingmian: "How dare the Fan family attack you?"
Yu Lingye: "The Fan family certainly doesn't dare, but the person behind the Fan family does."
Xie Yingmian: "The second and third branches of the Fan family belong to the emperor?"
Yu Lingye: "I suspect that Fan Yue's broken leg and the second branch of the Fan family adopting their son into the first branch were also instructed by the emperor. The emperor wanted to use this method to seize the military power of the Fan family without even having to fight."
