Chapter 13 An Accident Happened
"father!"
Just as Zhang Yiquan was being humble, his son somehow ran over and grabbed his clothes.
"Dad, I'm hungry..."
"When you're hungry, ask your mother for food."
Zhang Yiquan had no time to care about him at this time. His most important thing now was to buy the Chen family's carriage.
"It's not tasty." The little fat boy shook his head, "I want to eat shark fin!"
shark fin
Where the hell can I find shark fin for you!
Do you want a slap?
Zhang Yiquan was already upset, and his son was still ignorant and didn't even look at the current situation. He didn't know where to find shark fin on the road to exile.
You can't even see fish poop.
If he didn't have only one son, he would have slapped him.
Ignoring him, Zhang Yiquan continued to discuss with Chen Xue.
When the little fat boy saw that his father ignored him, he wanted to lie on the ground and roll around, but he saw a bundle on the carriage, and a sesame cake was exposed from the bundle, which looked delicious.
So he ran over, reached out and grabbed the pancake, then opened his mouth and took a bite. Just now at his home, the surroundings were filled with the smell of donkey dung, and he couldn't eat it at all. Even if he ate it, he would spit it out.
So the little fat boy was very hungry at this time. He didn't know if other people's food was delicious. He found it delicious as soon as he took a bite, and ate it in big mouthfuls.
However, after eating a few more bites, he felt that the taste was just so-so and not as good as shark fin, so he threw the pancake on the ground and turned to run towards his father.
thump!
However, the little fat boy fell to the ground, perhaps because he kicked something or for some other reason.
When Zhang Yiquan heard the noise, he hurried over to help him up, but his expression suddenly changed.
The little fat boy had his eyes closed, his face was purple, and his whole body was twitching. It was obvious that he was not normal.
"Wei'er, Wei'er, what's wrong with you? Don't scare Daddy, wake up!"
"Open your eyes, please. Daddy will buy you shark fin."
The sudden situation stunned Chen Xue. Lord Chen walked out of the carriage and saw this situation. His face darkened. He briefly asked about the situation and then walked over.
"It's poisoning."
Lord Chen looked at the fat boy's purple face, then looked around and saw a pancake with a few bites taken from it on the ground. His heart sank.
He immediately ordered his servants to keep a close eye on the bundle on the carriage, not to move it, and not to let anyone else touch it.
"Go and call the police."
"Your son has been poisoned. We must find a way to detoxify him..."
Hearing what Master Chen said, Zhang Yiquan turned his head with red eyes, "Did you do it? You wanted to kill my son to avenge me..."
"You know what kind of person I am." Lord Chen said calmly.
Zhang Yiquan was speechless for a moment.
"Son!"
Suddenly, a shrill wail was heard. It turned out that Zhang Yiquan's wife had been paying attention to the situation here. Seeing her son in trouble, she couldn't sit still.
"Son, my son, wake up, I am your mother!" The woman hugged Xiaopang and cried desperately, but got no response.
Then, the woman suddenly stood up and rushed towards Master Chen, "It's all your fault, you killed my son..."
Lord Chen took a step back, and the servant immediately stepped forward to stop the woman. The woman became even more angry when she was stopped.
"Do you still have any humanity? My son was only a little boy, yet you killed him... Woo woo woo, my poor son!"
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want." Chen's mother came over and pulled Chen Xue behind her. "Do you have any evidence to prove that we did it?"
The woman was stunned, but then she started shouting frantically, "I knew it, I knew it was you who did it, give me back my son's life."
The woman rushed towards the Chen family like crazy, and the Chen family's servants hurriedly stopped her.
The Chen family was helpless when they saw that the woman didn't listen to their explanation at all. Especially when the woman kept saying that it was them who did it, it made them even angrier, but they didn't know how to refute.
Seeing that the woman didn't listen to them, Lord Chen looked at Zhang Yiquan, "Lord Zhang, you have been an official for many years, you should know that we can't do this..."
"Enough!" Zhang Yiquan's eyes were red, and he no longer had the smile on his face. Instead, he stared at him with hatred, "Chen Yuan, very good. I thought you were a good person, but who knew you were even more ruthless than I imagined!"
Chen Yuan sighed, knowing that he didn't listen to his words. That's right, if something happened to Xue'er, he would go crazy and would not care what others said.
But the problem now is that they didn't do this at all. It was obvious that someone else wanted to harm them with poisonous food, but the child of Mr. Zhang accidentally ate the food, which led to this tragedy.
Unless they can save Xiaopang, Lord Zhang and the others will not listen to their explanation.
But the key point is that he is not a doctor and does not know how to detoxify.
So, the situation on the scene came to a standstill.
"Chen Yuan, I'm not done with you on this matter. From today on, even if I die, I will drag your Chen family down with me. Even if I become a ghost, I won't let you go."
Hearing Zhang Yiquan's vicious words, everyone around, including the Chen family, shuddered.
Chen Xue sighed, feeling very helpless. She never expected that such a thing would happen.
Zhang Yiquan wanted to take Xiaopang away, but the woman refused, "I want them to be buried with our son."
Then the woman immediately lay on the ground, rolling around and wailing like a raging tantrum.
"Everyone, please judge for yourself. Even if our family is at fault, we shouldn't have attacked our child. He's only ten years old..."
"She's only ten years old. She's obviously innocent, but they're so cruel. They're simply not human beings."
People just love to join in the fun.
Hearing the noise, the other people in the exile team rushed over. They didn't see what happened, but they saw the person lying on the ground and heard the woman's crying, and they had almost pieced together what happened.
"This is too cruel!"
"It's abominable that they attacked a child."
"Exactly. I thought Lord Chen was a good official. Turns out it was all a lie."
"Yes, if he were a good official, he wouldn't have been exiled with us."
The pointing and criticizing by the crowd made Lord Chen and his companions look unhappy, but it was fine that the Zhang family just didn't listen to their explanation.
This group of people also accused them indiscriminately.
"Shut up! What do you know?" Xiaodie stood up and defended the Chen family. "You haven't seen anything, you don't know the truth, what qualifications do you have to talk nonsense?"
"Hey, little girl, even though we didn't see what happened, the facts are right in front of us. His son is lying on the ground. Who else could it be but you? It's impossible for someone to use his own son's life for a show!"
"That's right, a maid is so arrogant and domineering, this Chen family is definitely not a good family."
"That's right. I don't think they found anything during the house search. I'm afraid they hid it away a long time ago."
"That's right. These corrupt officials are all gangs. Maybe they bribed the higher-ups to avoid the death penalty."
The more they spoke, the more exaggerated and outrageous it became. It was obvious that they had nothing to do with the Chen family. Instead, they were jealous that they suffered so much while the Chen family had it so easy and could even make carriages. It was obviously because of him that they and others were implicated, so they would naturally not let go of the opportunity for revenge.
A yamen runner hiding in the crowd saw that the poisoned person was not Lord Chen, and his face suddenly turned ugly.
If the poisoning fails this time, the Chen family will be more cautious next time, making it even more difficult to succeed.
Therefore, this time Chen Yuan must die no matter what.
However, although it was not Chen Yuan who was poisoned, he still had an opportunity.
"What are you arguing about?"
He pushed through the crowd and walked out.
The woman saw the official as if she had found a lifeline, "Sir, Sir, Sir, please help us..."
