"What did you say?!"
Lu Jing froze in place, as if struck by lightning. Was there something wrong with his ears? Why did he feel like he couldn't even understand what Doctor Xu said?
What does it mean to have the same origin?
Are the poisons in Lu Yan and Lu Sinian the same?
Is there a cure?
Can the mute Lu Yan be cured?!
Old Madam Lu was also very shocked. This poison was extremely rare. Even she had spent a lot of effort to obtain it by chance.
Even the imperial physicians at the Imperial Hospital didn't find anything strange, but Doctor Xu was able to see it!
It's really scary!
"Doctor Xu, what did you say? Is this true?" Shen Ruoyan took two steps back and almost lost her balance! She widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Doctor Xu in disbelief. If Chun Xi hadn't supported her in time, she would have fallen!
Doctor Xu nodded and said, "Madam, the poison that the prince was poisoned with was indeed this poison. I have been trying to identify it, and I am absolutely right!"
He made such a solemn promise that no one present had any doubts.
Doctor Xu's reputation is even more famous than their signboard. Even if he was invited by Shen Ruoyan, Doctor Xu is a miracle doctor who often visits various noble families. How could he be easily bribed?
So what he said must be true!
"That's really great..." Madam Lu said quietly. She looked at Fang Rou and asked meaningfully, "Madam Fang, tell us what you know. Don't hold a grudge against him for not telling you the truth just because Yan'er is the Crown Prince. It will be better for everyone."
When Fang Rou heard her words, she felt confused.
She was even blamed for the poisoning, so how could she possibly know where the poison came from?
wrong!
She actually knew!
Lu Ankang said that the poison was taken from the old lady's maid. At that time, the maids wanted to hide the medicine in another place, saying that they were ordered by the old lady. It was obviously a very important thing.
That's why Lu Ankang followed them, watched them hide the medicine, and then found an opportunity to take it out.
The medicine belonged to Madam Lu, and it was the same poison that had killed the Crown Prince. Now, by some strange coincidence, it had been used by her son to harm Lu Sinian...
That means that Madam Lu was the murderer who killed the prince!
Fang Rou suddenly fell to the ground. She understood, she understood everything!
"Aunt Fang, what's the matter? Tell me everything you know. If you can make amends for your mistakes, Brother Kang will have an easier time in the mansion in the future." Old Madam Lu said with a smile, but the threat in her words was not concealed at all.
Fang Rou knew that she wanted to use her son to control her and help her hide the truth.
Because Madam Lu had already determined that she must know where Lu Ankang got the poison from, so she wanted to take the initiative -
She felt that she would definitely compromise again for Lu Ankang!
Fang Rou wanted to laugh, and in fact, she did laugh.
Laughing at her ridiculous fate, her self-conceited maternal love, and the grudges between her and Lu Jing, now it all seems as ridiculous as a joke!
"Brother Kang, do you know where Aunt Fang got the poison?" Shen Ruoyan asked Lu Ankang anxiously. She seemed to care so much about things involving Lu Yan. The usually gentle and elegant mistress finally showed her lively side.
However, now both Madam Lu and Lu Jing hope that she can be as calm and composed as before.
This means that she doesn't care about this matter.
But Shen Ruoyan's confused look was deeply engraved in their minds.
Although Lu Jing was surprised, he could understand it.
Lu Yan is Shen Ruoyan's lifeblood. Even though he has become mute, Shen Ruoyan has never relaxed his teaching of him over the years.
The teacher even wanted to buy the best and have the pens, ink, paper and inkstone custom-made, for fear that he would mistreat his son in any way.
How could such a Shen Ruoyan stay calm when she heard that Lu Yan might be cured?
But Mrs. Lu did not feel the same way.
When she heard Shen Ruoyan asking Lu Ankang, her heart subconsciously lifted up. Fang Rou could understand her implication, but Lu Ankang, a child, might not be able to understand it!
"Ruoyan, Brother Kang is still young. Even if he remembers these things, he may not remember them correctly. He might confuse them with other things, which would cause trouble." Old Madam Lu meant that she didn't need to care about what Lu Ankang said.
Since we have found that it is the same poison, let's investigate in the mansion.
Anyway, we can always find clues from the things we get in the mansion.
If Chen Ruoyan was still the same Shen Ruoyan, she would probably be led by the nose by her.
But, unfortunately, she is not!
"Grandma, it is precisely because the child is young that he will not lie. So what he said must not be groundless. He only said what he saw." Shen Ruoyan used the words just now to block Madam Lu, leaving her speechless.
What does it mean to shoot oneself in the foot? That's exactly what she did!
"But……"
"No buts! Grandma, today's incident involves Yan'er. No matter what you say, I must find out the truth!" Shen Ruoyan interrupted Madam Lu without hesitation. Her eyes were firm, and even though there were tears in her eyes, she never wavered.
"I must seek justice for Yan'er!"
"Come here, take Aunt Fang away and torture her severely. We must find clues to the poison from her mouth!"
Shen Ruoyan directly asked someone to take Fang Rou away first. Madam Lu wanted to stop her, but Chun Xi stepped forward and stopped her with a smile: "Madam, my wife loves her son dearly, I'm sure you will understand. After all, this involves the prince."
Her smile was bright, and her attitude was impeccable. "Please don't blame me, old lady. Please fulfill your love for your son."
To fulfill her love for her son?
Old Madam Lu thought to herself that if she fulfilled her wish, she would probably have to sacrifice herself!
Fang Rou already knew the truth of the matter. Although she didn't say it out loud, her existence was always a hidden danger.
Originally, Lu Ankang was a powerful weapon to restrain her, but now it seems that Fang Rou is probably a little disappointed with Lu Ankang.
Madam Lu didn't want to take any risks. If Wan Fangrou saw through the mundane world and wanted to drag everyone down with her, wouldn't that be more trouble than it would take?!
no!
Fang Rou cannot stay!
She must not be given the chance to be tortured!
Madam Lu watched Fang Rou being led away without saying a word. However, her gaze remained fixed on Fang Rou until she disappeared, and she never retracted it.
That look made people shiver - Shen Ruoyan thought, Fang Rou might really have to rely on herself this time!
