Chapter 320 The Reason for the Song Family’s Disaster
After the Yang family vented their anger.
Elder Yang looked around and found that except for his eldest grandson Yang Yingji who had calmed down, the others were still filled with indignation. After all, they were still young and not old enough to do anything.
So Lord Yang simply sent the man away.
Only Doctor Yang was left.
However, Yang Yingji did not leave, wanting to find out the truth: "Grandfather, father, and uncle don't seem like the kind of people who would do anything for the sake of profit. Why did he want to harm the Song family? Is there any hidden reason behind this?"
Among the younger generations, Yang Yingji is a leader.
The weight is second only to Doctor Yang.
Faced with his question, Lord Yang remained silent.
Doctor Yang didn't seem to want his son to get involved. "Ji'er, there is a hidden story behind this matter. It's not just your uncle's fault. What we need to think about now is how to save your uncle's life."
"The evidence is irrefutable, how else can we solve it?"
Yang Yingji realized that his grandfather and father were hiding something from him.
Doctor Yang said in a deep voice: "The evidence of Minister Yuan's corruption case last year is also conclusive."
Yang Yingji suddenly opened his eyes wide.
Obviously, my three views were impacted again.
Yang Yingji knew how Yuan Shangshu escaped punishment, and his family despised and disliked it. What about now? Are they going to learn Yuan Shangshu's methods?
Just at this moment, a servant came hurriedly from outside to report that several clan leaders had already entered the mansion.
Now that he has entered the house, he will be in the study in half a quarter of an hour.
Yang Ge Lao said to his eldest grandson, "Ji'er, you step back first."
"grandfather."
Yang Yingji didn't want to leave.
His father has asked him to take over some family affairs.
Why did he have to avoid this matter? But facing the serious gaze of Yang Ge Lao, Yang Yingji had no choice but to leave first.
Doctor Yang looked at his son's departing figure and whispered, "Father, why don't you keep Ji'er here?"
"You are still young, and you have a lot of integrity. It is better for the younger generation not to know before the big things are decided."
Elder Yang suppressed his worries, "In recent years, his temper has become more violent, even worse than the one in the palace. The Yang family has boarded his ship, and it is hard to predict whether it will be a disaster or a blessing."
"Did father regret it?"
"After all these years, I do have some regrets. But I chose this path back then, and even if I regret it, I have to go on. As the saying goes, it's easier to get on a boat than to get off."
Lord Yang was considering whether he could still have a way out now that his secret was exposed.
This was the first time Doctor Yang heard his father express regret.
Not only his father, he has also lived in fear these years, and he is walking on thin ice in the government office. In fact, sometimes he wonders, since his father wants to hide it from other people in the family, why did he tell him? It would be better to hide it from him as well. In this way, he doesn't have to live with such a big secret.
My hair is falling out in clumps.
Life is getting more tiring day by day.
Doctor Yang asked, "What's going on with the Song family in Huizhou? Does father know the inside story?"
"I don't know how Liu Bingzheng learned that the Song family of Huizhou had several imperial physicians in their ancestry and was the descendant of the famous imperial physician Song of the previous dynasty. It was he who told Mr. Yan that the Song family had an ancient recipe called Huichun, which could save lives but also kill people."
Mr. Yang doesn't know much about medicine.
I just listened to the general idea.
Doctor Yang gritted his teeth and said, "Is it the Liu family that covets the Song family's things?"
"It's unknown whether it's true or not. Anyway, the medical books that were seized from the Song family's property should be in the hands of that old man Liu Bingzheng."
Lord Yang only heard about it afterwards.
I had only heard some rumors beforehand.
If he had paid more attention, perhaps Yang Lingyu would not have been involved in this matter.
Yang Ge Lao was furious: "I don't know how those people did it. Who came up with the idea to accuse the Song family of a crime and then confiscate their property? It would be better to just rob them cleanly. At least Ling Yu wouldn't be implicated if the crime was exposed."
The evidence has fallen into the hands of others.
Lord Yang used to think that his nephew was a smart man, but now he knows that smart people can also do stupid things.
He dared to agree to anything! Doctor Yang gnashed his teeth and cursed, "Liu Bingzheng is a bastard who betrays his teacher and ancestors! He must have had selfish motives to bring this up to Mr. Yan."
Neither the father nor the son knew.
Their guess was very close to the truth.
The Liu family had a reputation as a medical family for three generations, but in fact, they had little medical experience, which was a big concern for Liu Bingzheng. In the files collected by the Imperial Hospital, he accidentally discovered records about the Song family, a medical family from the previous dynasty, whose ancestral home was Huizhou Prefecture. He immediately sent people to Huizhou to investigate, and found that there were almost no Song family members practicing medicine, but there was a very famous drug dealer with the surname Song.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
After investigation, he found that it was indeed the Song family he was looking for, so he asked someone to contact Song Kuan and said that he wanted to buy the Song family's ancestral pharmacopoeia. Song Kuan thought that the other party coveted the "Song's Pharmacopoeia" and refused on the spot.
In fact, even if he knew it was not the case, Song Kuan would still refuse. The Song family was not short of money and had not yet fallen to the point of selling out their ancestral property.
Liu Bingzheng had stepped on his master to rise to power and murdered his master's family. It was no surprise that he once again coveted someone else's family assets. He couldn't do anything to the Song family far away in Huizhou, so he went to Mr. Yan and mentioned the ancient recipe.
The person behind the scenes went to investigate the Song family in Huizhou.
Naturally, the things that are found out will be coveted by others.
When the report was brought to the former crown prince and Mr. Yan, the former crown prince immediately slammed the table and ordered that all members of the Song family be taken away.
Sometimes, just a few words from those in power can cause tragedy to countless people or families.
The Huizhou Song family is just the tip of the iceberg, and an insignificant example in the eyes of those in power.
Several elderly elders of the Yang family came over, led by the old housekeeper. After several elders of the clan stood up, someone immediately closed the door of the study.
After that, we talked about something in the study.
The outside world doesn't know.
That night, Doctor Yang used his connections to go to the Xingbu prison to meet Yang Lingyu.
The next day, when the Ministry of Justice came to interrogate him, Yang Yingyu was particularly cooperative and said that he had received an official document from the provincial government that day and he was merely enforcing the law in accordance with the document. He did not even review the case, but rather an order directly issued by his superiors.
As for official documents?
A fire broke out in the government archives room, burning some of the files.
The official documents were also burned at that time.
Qin Chi also knew the result of the interrogation.
He handed the booklet secretly delivered by his men to Song Jin and said, "My lady, don't be angry after reading this. Always remember that you are not alone."
As he spoke, his eyes swept across Song Jin's bulging belly. In fact, he didn't want Song Jin to worry about this matter, but he knew that she always cared about the Song family.
Don't tell her this time.
She will start to have wild thoughts, so it is better to tell her the progress directly.
Song Jin read the confession sent to him.
There is no signature or seal, so it must have been copied by someone.
She glanced at Qin Chi again.
Song Jin had a new understanding of the power behind Qin Chi. They had actually planted people in the Ministry of Justice. The other party's status might not be low, otherwise, they would not be qualified to review Yang Lingyu's confession.
