593 Big Arrest
Ping An went to the master's house. The old man was really sick and had seen a doctor. But when Ping An came, the old man felt uncomfortable all over. Ping An took his pulse and fed him medicine personally. He promised to come over the next morning. He now had to go to Gan Die Hao's house. Gan Die Hao was seriously injured, and he was not at ease with just the military doctor.
"You'd better go quickly. Your husband has not come back since he went out." The old man felt a little embarrassed.
"Master, something terrible has happened in the palace. The Crown Princess has been poisoned to death, and the Queen has not woken up yet. Master and the Dean are trying to find a solution. I am also injured, so the Emperor allowed me to go home and rest."
"Are you hurt? Ping An, where are you hurt?"
The old man started to panic.
Master Wang Er and Master Wang San didn't know what to say. Ping An didn't look too seriously injured, at least he walked over.
Is this the time to talk about these things? Something big happened in the palace.
"Master, these are just minor injuries. They happened at the city gate. Many people died at the city gate. Master, you should take a good rest. I will go to Hao Gandi's house and come to see you tomorrow."
The old man finally woke up, nodded, and was speechless.
The Crown Princess is dead, and we don’t know what happened to the Empress yet. A big storm is about to hit the capital.
By the time Ping An had visited the Hao family, the Hou Mansion, and the Huang family, it was already dark when he returned home. Sometimes, being too popular or too good at being a human being can be very hard.
Although his injuries were not serious, when he returned home and asked Qingshi to change his bandages, Qingshi's eyes turned red. The young master had many minor injuries on his body, just like Xiaowu and Lin Feng.
It’s just that Xiao Wu and Lin Feng were ordered by the young master to recuperate at home, while he himself has been busy outside.
"Master, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you should come home first and take me and Jun out to check other people's pulses. Although these injuries are not serious, they won't heal if you don't rest."
Ping An sighed, "How could I have thought of all this? After leaving the palace, I took Xu Song and Xiao Ming to the master's house, and then went from house to house. They all have elderly people. Fortunately, General Hao was injured too seriously. The old man and the old lady of the Hao family are both seriously ill. My master's health is not good either. Tomorrow, you can come with me to visit each family."
In fact, Qingshi and his colleagues were busy in the clinic all day. The clinic was overcrowded and there were many patients who needed to be seen. However, the manager asked them to avoid seeing patients as much as possible because the streets were much more chaotic than usual.
Xiaochen and a few others followed the master to the military camp and did not come back at night.
Awu didn’t know that her father had entered the palace before, and her mother-in-law and sister-in-law were always with her, so her mental state was still very good.
Ping'an couldn't hide the smell of medicine on his body from her, so he had to tell her and his mother that he couldn't see clearly at night and fell and broke a large piece of skin.
Sun Hongyu and Wan Changsheng were naturally aware of the matter. They also went to the military camp to participate in the treatment during the day and only returned before dark. They heard everything.
But I can’t say it out loud, it would be bad if it scares Mei Niang and A Wu.
"Dad, Uncle, are you guys still going tomorrow?"
Wan Changsheng said, "With so many people injured, of course I have to go. Xiaochen, Wenzhu and the others are still in the barracks, and the medicinal materials are being consumed a lot."
Madam Liu came over and called for dinner.
Mei Niang was also frightened these days, and she only felt relieved when her son returned home.
"You are all tired, eat something and rest early."
As soon as his mother and wife left, Ping An whispered to his father and uncle that the Crown Princess was gone. These things were still unknown to outsiders, but they might not be able to keep it secret tomorrow.
Wan Changsheng and Sun Hongyu opened their mouths wide. They really didn't know anything about this.
If this happens, the matter will become even bigger, and the capital city will probably be faced with a bloody storm soon.
They were right.
Two days later, the entire capital was in turmoil. First, the close relatives of the Yongguo Mansion were arrested, and all the three clans were arrested. The soldiers who participated in the palace coup and their families...
…
Ping An listened to the crying in the street every day, and he felt indescribable in his heart. Just because of the ambition of the Second Prince and the Old Duke, so many people died, and so many families were arrested, so many innocent children and women...
How innocent are they?
The Second Prince and the old Duke really deserve to die.
This was just the capital city. Anyone from the Xu family in the Great Zhou who was an official was arrested within three clans, and all those within nine clans were dismissed from office. Their children who were studying were not allowed to take the imperial examinations.
Ping'an got the master's confirmation that the queen's poison was somewhat cured, but she still couldn't wake up.
The second prince was thrown into jail and his mind was a little unclear, while the old duke died by hitting his head against a wall before he was caught. He died, but he harmed the three clans of the Xu family. Even if they go to the underworld, they will probably not be able to see their ancestors.
This kind of days lasts until the tenth day.
The queen would occasionally wake up for a short while, but the poison had not been completely eliminated and she was in a daze, so the master naturally could not go home yet.
Imperial Physician Hou died. After investigation by the Dali Temple, it was determined that the Crown Princess' heart disease was caused by the poison he had administered.
His parents died unexpectedly ten years ago, and his only son suffered brain damage from a high fever because he was on night duty in the palace and had no time to return home for treatment.
My wife passed away a year ago due to the exhaustion from all those years.
He was once a young and famous doctor in Dingzhou City. He had a family business and was particularly good at treating poisons. However, just because the Crown Princess said, "A person who is so good at treating poisons should come to work in the Imperial Hospital," he had no choice but to give up his family business and work in the Imperial Hospital for ten years.
Because of his parents' accidents and his son's accident, he hardly ever smiled in the past ten years. And his wife's death was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
A dull, honest man finally took action.
The Dali Temple solved the case, but they were only able to arrest his 13-year-old mentally retarded son and some close relatives.
Everything is cause and effect.
It’s just a pity that Doctor Hou’s relatives were implicated and had to be exiled. After all, killing the Crown Princess is a serious crime.
Although Doctor Huang was coerced, he was the one who did it after all, and his entire family was arrested, but at least his clansmen were not implicated.
On the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, when the prison in the capital could no longer hold her, the queen finally woke up, and all that was left was for her to recover.
Ping An's master Sun Sicheng left home on the eve of the twelfth lunar month, and it was half a month before he was able to return home to have a good rest.
The day before the Lantern Festival.
Xiao Wu and Lin Feng quietly retrieved the ill-gotten gains from the soil next to the garbage dump at the market.
Ping'an closed the door and sat alone on the carpet looking at the pile of gold, silver and jewelry on the ground, as well as a small box of silver bills exchanged in Da Zhou Tong.
He couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
It was too much money. The first time he saw the glittering gold and silver, he lost his uncontrollable joy. All the owners of the silver were thrown into prison and suffered. I heard that they would be sentenced soon, and no one knew how many people would die.
Wang Chufeng's second uncle's family was also involved in this matter, and the father and his two sons were all involved. He was not sure how serious the matter was, but the whole family, including the old lady, were arrested.
When Chu Feng's stepmother divided the family property, he insisted on going with his biological son, and his household registration was also listed with his biological son, while the old Duke naturally followed the eldest son.
So, although the old couple have not divorced, their household registration is not in the same place and they do not live together.
Chu Feng told him that it was mainly the brothers Chu Yun and Chu Yu who were involved. Wang Chuyun had never had any great ability, but Wang Chuyu was a Jinshi like him, and his ranking was relatively high.
I heard that he was the main one following the Second Prince, and Wang Chuyun was helping him. Even if he didn't die this time, he would have to be exiled thousands of miles away.
It can only be said that being too clever is worse than being a fool. The old Duke has collapsed and had a mild stroke. It was his master who came to see him for treatment.
The master was the best at treating stroke, but at that time he was still in the palace.
Wang Chufeng was so frightened by this incident that he fell seriously ill, but he was cured. Fortunately, the family was divided, and fortunately, he and his son fought desperately during the palace coup, otherwise they would have been implicated, including their clansmen.
