The way they look today, they won't give up until the truth is revealed.
Fang Rou stood there, feeling uncomfortable all over.
She even wanted to go outside to get some fresh air, but she was worried that her abnormal behavior would arouse more suspicion.
Lu Jing looked at Lu Ankang who was silent, with some doubts in his heart. He couldn't help but ask: "Brother Kang, tell me about this, did you do it?"
After all, he was the child who grew up under his care, and Lu Jing’s feelings for Lu Ankang were not fake.
Even though we have been distant from each other for a while, the affection we once had was real.
He wanted to hear the truth from his son's own mouth.
"I didn't do it." Lu Ankang stiffened his neck, like a proud peacock, refusing to lower his noble head. There were even tears in his eyes, and he looked so pitiful that he seemed about to let them fall.
Normally, as soon as he showed this expression, Lu Jing would compromise with him the next second.
But this time, Lu Jing backed off.
"Don't worry, if it wasn't you who did it, Ruoyan wouldn't wrongly accuse you. She is fair and will definitely be able to find out the truth." This is why Lu Jing did not intervene to stop it.
In this regard, he trusts Shen Ruoyan very much.
"My Lord, Brother Kang is really not that kind of kid. You should be very clear about this!" Fang Rou still wanted to argue for her son, but seeing so many people present, Lu Jing couldn't say anything.
So he could only stiffly reply, "We'll know whether he did it or not later."
Anyway, this mansion is so small that it won’t even take a day to search it all.
He doesn't have to be on duty today, so he has plenty of time to wait here!
Time passed minute by minute, and Fang Rou's heart felt like it was being roasted on a hot pan, and she couldn't calm down.
Not only her, but even Old Madam Lu was a bit restless, constantly glancing outside, nervous and apprehensive. Even the maids beside her were no longer as calm as before; one of them lost her composure, her back wet with sweat...
Shen Ruoyan just sat there quietly. She was obviously not the most senior person in the room, but when she sat there, no one dared to step over her.
Even Fang Rou and Ai Ai's voices became quieter, for fear of angering Shen Ruoyan, who would be even more ruthless later!
"Found it! Madam, found it!"
Qiu Ye came in trotting from outside. She was best at finding things, and this time she brought people to search Lu Ankang's house.
She was very fast but her steps were steady. She had been running outside a lot recently and her kung fu had improved a lot.
She was holding a small, insignificant oil-paper bag in her hand, but everyone present had their eyes glued to it, eager to poke a hole in it to see what was inside.
“Bring it up!”
When Lu Jing saw the things, he almost suppressed his anger and tried hard to look calm.
In fact, my heart has been in turmoil for a long time!
When Mrs. Lu saw the medicine bag, she almost gasped. Fortunately, she kept her composure and tried not to look over there deliberately. She just glanced at it lightly and then looked away.
"Chun Xi, send someone to take a look." As soon as Shen Ruoyan finished speaking, Chun Xi quickly went out and brought Doctor Xu in from outside -
To be on the safe side, Doctor Xu has been waiting in the mansion.
"Doctor Xu, please come and see what's inside."
Shen Ruoyan had the medicine bag brought over. Doctor Xu pinched a little powder, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then looked at it carefully before saying, "Madam, this powder is a colorless and odorless poison, very rare. I have also seen it in the frontier during my travels. This poison is very strong. At the very least, it will damage your health, and at the worst, it will kill you!"
"So powerful?!" Lu Jing was surprised. How could there be such a magical poison in the world?
He looked like he couldn't wait to take a step forward, as if if what was in front of him wasn't poison, he would have wanted to put some in his mouth to taste it!
"My Lord, the doctors at the Imperial Hospital are very knowledgeable. If you still have any doubts, you can ask them to make another assessment," Doctor Xu said politely.
Lu Jing quickly waved his hands, "No, no, since Doctor Xu said so, it must be true."
joke!
Doctor Xu was hired by Shen Ruoyan with money and favors. He had already seen it all. Wouldn't it be a slap in his face to ask the imperial physician to see him again?!
Doctor Xu is very proud and arrogant. If he gets angry and doesn't come to the Marquis' Mansion for consultation in the future, wouldn't that be more harm than good?!
What's more, Lu Jing had no doubts in his heart, because Doctor Xu had no reason to lie about this.
"Where did you find this thing?" Shen Ruoyan asked lightly. Although it was just a question, it made everyone's heart rise.
Because the answer to this question is very important!
Fang Rou's heart was about to jump out of her throat. She shook her head frantically in her heart, don't say it was Lu Ankang!
But Qiu Ye glanced at her lightly and raised her voice deliberately, "Madam, this poison was found in Master Kang's room. It was hidden in his pillow. Let us search for it!"
"No! Impossible!" Fang Rou denied it again and again, but this time, even Lu Jing ignored her.
Lu Jing's face was gloomy, and he suppressed his anger and asked, "Are you saying that this poison was found in Lu Ankang's room?"
Qiu Ye nodded without flinching, "My Lord, this poison was indeed found in Master Kang's room!"
So many people are with her!
Everyone saw it, but she didn't frame her on purpose!
"brute!"
Lu Jing slapped him. He really didn't expect that this was actually done by Lu Ankang!
How old is Lu Sinian?
How old is Lu Ankang? !
How can he have such a cruel heart at such a young age?
If he can murder his own brother now, then he can murder his own father in the future?!
Lu Jing and Fang Rou are truly in love. Their first reaction after knowing the truth was that they were worried that Lu Ankang would become heartless and harm them when he grew up.
But Lu Ankang himself was very calm. After being slapped, he became even calmer, "I didn't do this."
Lu Jing was almost laughing at his anger. "The evidence is all there. If it wasn't you, who else could it be?!"
Not only did he do something wrong, but he was unwilling to even admit it. How could he, Lu Jing, have such a useless son?
Lu Jing was so disappointed with Lu Ankang that he wanted to slap him again. However, Fang Rou had already rushed over and hugged the child tightly in her arms: "My Lord, Brother Kang must have been framed. This really wasn't him who did it!"
