In recent days, Li Shi has been very excited, waiting for the news that Shang Yuanshan and others have passed away.
Today the general's mansion was very noisy, all because Shuang Ning ran to the Dali Temple early in the morning.
"Someone poisoned General Shang." Shuang Ning went to the Dali Temple openly, burst into tears and told the story of her wife and the general being poisoned.
Such incidents have not occurred in the capital for a long time, but that does not mean that such incidents do not occur in other prefectures. However, those are handled by each prefecture on its own.
Liu Quan, the Minister of Dali Temple, was very troubled after hearing this. The person who could poison the general must be someone in the palace.
There were no concubines causing trouble in the general's mansion, so it was unknown whether someone sent someone to poison them or whether the brothers in the mansion killed each other.
The Dali Temple Minister had a majestic look of anger on his face. "Who is so bold as to poison the General of the Cavalry?"
"Don't worry, young lady. I will take people to the general's mansion right away."
The Dali Temple Minister did not dare to delay at all and took a team of people with Shuang Ning to the general's mansion.
Shuang Ning kept crying along the way. The people passing by saw the beauty crying. There was a team from the Dali Temple following behind her, and they followed the team out of curiosity.
Get ready to go see the excitement.
But I didn't expect that I would follow him to the General of Cavalry's mansion.
"What happened in General Shang's mansion?"
"Do you think it's possible that General Shang's mother died? I heard a few years ago that the old lady was in poor health, so General Shang asked the emperor to bring his entire family back to take care of her."
"But why did you ask the Dali Temple to come after the old lady died?"
One of them was shocked and asked in a low voice: "Did he get killed by someone?"
"I'll go, that's very possible."
As the virus spread from person to person, news of Madam Shang's death spread.
At this time, Shang Wanning was in the Ministry of Revenue, dealing with the piled up documents.
A man stood in front of him and said sadly: "Minister Shang, please accept my condolences."
"Minister Shang, your family has such a big incident, and you still have to deal with the paperwork. It's really hard work for you."
Everyone who came had to say something, which made Shang Wanning excited.
Shang Wanning burst into tears. "Brother, why did you lose that? Wuwuwu~~"
"Minister Shang, are you feeling stupid because of your pain?"
Shang Wanning wiped away his tears. "Brother Lu, what do you mean by that?"
Lu Hanting sighed. "This is really too sad, Brother Shang, you should still mourn.
But we still need to investigate thoroughly. We can’t let Madam Shang be killed like this.”
"What? You said my mother was murdered?"
"Yes, the Dali Temple officials came to your house today, saying they were going to investigate the case of Old Madam Shang."
"How could my mother be dead?" Shang Wanning threw down the documents in his hand and ran home like crazy.
Shang Wanning, who had finally squeezed into the mansion, happened to run into Shang Yuanshan. He punched Shang Yuanshan in the face. "Did you kill your mother?"
Shang Yuanshan did not dodge. His face was already pale and blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, which made people even more frightened.
Because it happened right in front of the government gate, the people outside who were peeking out saw this scene.
Some people could not help but scold him angrily. "Sir Shang, General Shang is your elder brother, and you actually beat him up."
"Minister Shang beat up my brother."
The people shouted at the top of their lungs, as if they were afraid that no one could hear them.
This caused Liu Quan, who was investigating the case, to run out.
"General Shang, how did you get injured?" The Dali Temple Minister looked at Shang Wanning unhappily.
Shang Wanning stepped forward excitedly. "Lord Liu, please make sure you investigate this thoroughly. You must not let my mother die unjustly."
The Dali Temple Minister was dumbfounded. "Minister Shang, what nonsense are you talking about? Are you cursing your mother's death?"
"..." Shang Wanning stood there in a daze.
Li heard the noise outside and came out.
"Ah, he's resurrected." The people outside screamed madly.
"This must be because Shang Wanning was unfilial and made his mother angry, causing her to resurrect." The people in front explained to the people behind.
"Uh, how could he be resurrected from the dead, this..." The timid ones were so scared that they collapsed to the ground.
Liu Quan looked at his men standing beside him. "Go out and see what they are shouting about."
"Yes." Guard Wang led his men out, only to find out that the people outside were saying that Madam Shang had been murdered.
At this time, Shang Yuanshan walked out of the mansion with a staggering step.
"Everyone be quiet."
Shang Yuanshan was weak and his voice was so soft that only people around him could hear it.
The people nearby helped shout, "Everyone be quiet, General Shang has something to say."
After hearing this shout, the people really quieted down.
Shang Yuanshan looked at the people beside him with gratitude.
The man said with great concern: "General, you don't look very well. You must take care of yourself."
"Ahem. Thank you all for your concern."
There was another commotion below. "Yes, General, you have always been in good health. How come you are so weak now?"
"Maybe it's because the old lady died and he's too sad."
Shang Yuanshan: "I don't know who told you this, but please stop spreading rumors. My mother is in good health and is not dead."
"..." The people were silent. They didn't know how the news of Madam Shang's death spread.
The people kept apologizing. "Please forgive us, General Shang. We heard it from others. We didn't mean to curse the old lady."
"I know everyone is worried. It's not your fault, but please keep quiet and don't delay the Dali Temple's investigation."
"General Shang, has something happened in your mansion?"
Shang Yuanshan said weakly: "Someone poisoned me, my wife, and the children."
"Who is so bold as to poison the general?"
Shang Yuanshan has always been a hero in their hearts. After learning that Shang Yuanshan was poisoned, these people became even more excited and angry than before.
If anyone dares to hurt their hero, they will never let that person go.
Shang Yuanshan: "We don't know yet. The Dali Temple is investigating in the palace."
"How dare you poison General Shang? This matter must be thoroughly investigated."
"General Shang, don't worry. Although we are all civilians, we will definitely protect you."
Shang Yuanshan: "Thank you everyone, thank you everyone."
In the distance, a man's voice was heard. He asked anxiously and loudly, "Have you found an antidote for the poison in General Shang's body?" There was an imperceptible tremor in his voice, and it was obvious that he was extremely concerned about General Shang's safety.
“Cough, cough, cough~~” Shang Yuanshan’s voice was hoarse and weak, and he answered with difficulty, “Now we only know that it is Luohui Powder.”
Hearing the three words "Luo Hui San", one man frowned, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. In the end, he decided to tell what he knew.
"Isn't this the poison that Wanhetang was secretly selling?" There was a hint of fear in his voice, as if he was revealing a deep secret.
"Don't talk nonsense. Isn't Wanhetang a medical clinic? Why would it sell poison?" another person retorted, his voice full of doubt and confusion.
