Ever since the death of the young master, the Wang family has been filled with the sounds of wailing and lamentation.
"My son, my son!!" Madam Wang clutched her chest, her heart aching so much she could hardly breathe.
Even now, she still cannot accept the fact that her son has passed away.
Lord Wang kept his grief hidden deep in his heart, and his hair turned mostly white.
He stared blankly, utterly dejected, his eyes fixed on his son's cradle.
Sudden.
The servant led Lord Fang in hurriedly. Upon seeing that his friend had aged ten years in just a few days, Lord Fang felt both depressed and bitter.
"Lord Wang."
Hearing someone call his name, Lord Wang raised his eyes and looked at Lord Fang with a lost and dejected expression.
It wasn't until the other party uttered a soul-stirring statement that the focus in Lord Wang's eyes returned, and he suddenly snapped out of his daze.
He jumped up from his seat: "What did you say?!"
“I said,” Lord Fang solemnly announced the devastating news, “the second son of the Su family also contracted measles and almost died, but was saved by a few boxes of medicine.”
"This is the information I received from the imperial physician."
"Now Su's second son is alive and kicking, completely unharmed, and without even a trace of aftereffects, all because of those few boxes of life-saving medicine."
Life-saving medicine?
Madam Wang raised her head blankly and stopped crying.
Is there any medicine in the world that can cure this epidemic?
Even the Imperial Medical Academy was powerless to treat this ailment...
Wait, did you get this news from the imperial physician?
"Where did this medicine come from?" Lord Wang trembled, not with excitement, but with disbelief.
He simply couldn't accept that a life-saving drug had appeared after his son's death.
How could he possibly accept this?
"Lord Wang, do you still remember what Lord Su said in the carriage that day?"
"It is said that before Zhou Cheng left the capital, he visited the three of our families. Only the Su family welcomed Zhou Cheng into their mansion. However, Zhou Cheng did not go to ask for help, but to deliver something."
"If Zhou Cheng can produce a weapon that even His Majesty fears, he can probably also provide the Su family with life-saving medicine..."
What could be more shocking than these words?
A buzzing sound!
Lord Wang felt a wave of dizziness and suddenly slumped back into his chair.
Standing to the side, Madam Wang, her eyes red from crying, opened her mouth wide, her handkerchief slipped from her grasp and fell to the ground.
The details of Zhou Cheng's visit that day flashed through my mind. When the servant reported, he said... Zhou Cheng had important business to discuss and didn't need to enter the mansion; a simple meeting at any place would suffice...
so,
So that day?!
"This, this is impossible... Hehe, how could this be..." Madam Wang was the one who could least accept this fact.
Because that day, it was she who disdainfully and firmly told Zhou Cheng to get out; it was she who was certain that the Zhou family would face great calamity, and she repeatedly advised her husband not to welcome Zhou Cheng into the family, so as not to be implicated by the Zhou family.
But what did she hear now?
Hearing that the second son of the Su family, who also had measles, had recovered!
And it was fortunate that Zhou Cheng visited at that particular time!
"Someone come here."
The color drained from Lord Wang's face again. His hands trembled uncontrollably as he forced himself to calm down, telling himself that it couldn't be... that life-saving medicine definitely wasn't given by Zhou Cheng.
He preferred to believe there was more to the story: "Go, go and call in the guards at the side gate!"
During those few anxious minutes of waiting.
