Grandpa Jiang felt his heart sinking little by little, and he slowly turned his head.
His gaze swept back and forth between Jiang Ruojin and Jiang Haoming, finally settling on Jiang Ruojin.
He stared intently at him, some vague thoughts surfacing in his mind, making his head spin in waves.
He slammed his dragon-headed cane against the ground and roared, "Speak! What happened! What exactly happened?!"
Jiang Ruojin never dreamed that Qin Sheng would see through things so early in the game. Even more unexpectedly, his father, instead of believing him, questioned him based on just a few words from the other party!
Is this really his biological father?!
Anger and resentment almost overwhelmed him, but no matter how angry he was, he had to keep his composure at this moment.
Jiang Ruojin gritted her teeth, but her face remained calm: "You were the first to know that Old Master Fu was in a coma, and you also took the initiative to bring Doctor Bian Su over for diagnosis. Haoming and I only found out about this from the housekeeper after you and your entourage had already left, and we rushed over."
"I even advised you at the time, saying that the relationship between our family and the Fu family is sensitive. If you bring the divine doctor there at this time, those who know will praise you for being loyal and righteous, but those who don't will think that our Jiang family is secretly plotting something! If something goes wrong, we might have to take the blame!"
At this point, Jiang Ruojin paused, her gaze sweeping over Qin Sheng and Fu Jingheng, her expression dark with anger, and said, "As it turns out, my worries were absolutely correct!"
"Don't mention any accidents. Nothing's wrong yet. Even before Doctor Bian Su has started treating Old Master Fu, people are already questioning our motives!"
The more Jiang Ruojin spoke, the angrier he became. If they weren't on each other's turf, he would have already started a fight.
In the end, all he could manage was a cold snort and a retort: "What can I do under these circumstances?!"
After hearing what he said, Grandpa Jiang really started to have some doubts.
Is he really overthinking things?
It's not that he was convinced in just a few words, it's just... well, it's not that he looks down on his son, but he genuinely feels that with his son's limited intelligence and cunning, he really can't plan anything too complicated.
He heard about Old Master Fu's coma by chance from an old friend. He only thought about it for two minutes before finding the divine doctor Bian Su, persuading him, and then bringing his people to the Fu family.
And Jiang Ruojin and Jiang Haoming did indeed catch up with him from behind, just as Jiang Haoming said, and they did indeed offer him those words of advice.
In other words, if this Divine Physician Bian Su is fake, then he was switched out before he decided to come to the Fu family, and someone went to great lengths to find someone who looked almost exactly like the real Divine Physician, with similar lifestyle and speaking habits.
Going back further, even the fact that Jiang Haoming sought out the renowned physician Bian Su to treat and recuperate after his fall and injury became part of the plan.
There are many details and challenges involved, and it would be absolutely impossible for Jiang Ruojin and his few subordinates to keep things completely secret and prevent him from noticing anything.
Moreover, he knew his son best. To put it bluntly, he was all bark and no bite. No matter how much he feared or resented him, he wouldn't dare to do something that included him in his schemes.
Something's not right...
Grandpa Jiang couldn't help but look in Bian Su's direction again, only to see that the man's previous panic and anxiety had disappeared, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
It was exactly the appearance of the familiar divine physician, Bian Su.
Old Master Jiang's eyes flickered, and he lowered his gaze to ponder for a moment. When he raised his eyes again, his anger had vanished.
He didn't ask Fu Jingyuan and Fu Jingheng for their opinions, but instead looked at Qin Sheng and said, "Miss Qin, since you believe that Doctor Bian was replaced, there must be some reason that led you to make this judgment. Could you please tell me that reason?"
He stated bluntly, "Even criminals need sufficient evidence to be convicted. My Jiang family came here with good intentions. Now that you've decided the person is fake, you need to provide sufficient evidence to prove it. You can't just admit guilt because you said it, can you?"
That's true.
Qin Sheng lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment before finally focusing her gaze on the teacup in her hand.
She stared at the teacup for a moment, then shook it slightly: "This is the evidence."
Not to mention the others, even the fake Bian Su was taken aback, and then almost burst out laughing.
However, he held back and could only laugh, "This is just a pill for warming the meridians and restoring health. It's just that its effect is much better than most pills on the market. What kind of evidence is that?"
Qin Sheng raised her eyes and said, "Prescribing a medicine to warm the meridians and restore health to someone who is suffering from severe poisoning, is it because you think the poison isn't spreading fast enough or penetrating deeply enough?"
Poisoning?!
Everyone present's pupils constricted sharply upon hearing those two words, and they abruptly turned their heads to look in the direction of Old Master Fu.
Fu Jingyuan's voice tightened as he pressed, "Grandpa was poisoned. What kind of poison? When did it start?"
"It's a slow-acting poison, and it's been around for three to four months. We'll need to do more tests to find out the exact cause," Qin Sheng said.
She shook the teacup in her hand and continued, "The pill he used contains a medicinal herb with excellent blood-activating effects. It can activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis to the greatest extent and unblock the meridians. If Grandpa Fu's problem is just poor blood circulation caused by blocked meridians, then prescribing this medicine is indeed the right thing to do."
"But the truth is quite the opposite. Given that the toxins have already spread throughout Grandpa Fu's body, if he were to take this pill, the toxins would seep into his internal organs within half a day at most, and he would be beyond saving."
The deep, resonant voice uttering the words "powerless to reverse the situation" caused everyone's brows to twitch uncontrollably.
Fake Bian Su was the first to speak up, retorting, "The Fu family has consulted countless doctors and physicians for examinations and diagnoses, and every diagnosis has concluded that the coma is caused by blocked meridians compressing the nerves. It's just that because they can't find the specific location of the blockage, and because the old man is old, they dare not perform any treatment without being absolutely certain, which is why it has been delayed until now."
"Now you, a young girl, come here and say everyone's diagnosis is wrong, that Old Master Fu was actually poisoned. Who do you think you are? You think you can just say he was poisoned and that's it? Where's the evidence?!"
Fake Bian Su chuckled: "You're not that old, but you've got quite the big mouth. Miss Qin, do you really think you're some kind of high-ranking official, that your words are law?"
Qin Sheng: "...Would you believe me if I said I was Shi Fang?"
Do you think he believes it or not?!
That's something you absolutely have to disbelieve!
