Chapter 305 My heart aches
"What do you mean?" Mrs. Yang's heart skipped a beat.
Ah Man looked horrified, "He's just crazy. When I went to look for him and tried to tell him to leave before I could even finish my words, he told me to get out.
He said... that colluding with you would kill him, and he apologized to the young lady, hurling a lot of nasty words at her, and ran around the mansion.
Madam Yang's heart was beating in her throat. "Is it under control?"
Aman was stunned.
She had not even the slightest thought of apprehending the court physician first. She was only thinking of finding the Madam, and seemed to be drawn away by something, losing her mind.
Thinking of Doctor Cai still saying those crazy things in the mansion, she was so scared that she knelt down and said, "This servant deserves death. This servant is anxious to tell you..."
"You really deserve to die." Madam Yang's brows furrowed and she stood up suddenly.
Aman has always been prudent and steady, but today he acted so foolishly.
If Cai's crazy talk alarmed those giant Buddhas, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Without caring about what to do to Aman, Madam Yang led her people out of the yard.
But it was still too late, as the doctor from Cai's mansion broke into the guest house.
When Madam Yang arrived, the doctor of Cai Mansion was kowtowing to Wei Qingyan, "Miss, please spare my life, please spare my life. It was Madam who told me to say that you had an internal disease. It is not me who harmed you..."
"You're talking nonsense again." Madam Yang hurriedly turned forward and said to Wei Qingyan, "Your Highness, please forgive me. This is the palace physician. He's a little crazy."
Then she glared at the guards following behind her, "Hurry up and take him away! You deserve to die for disturbing the noble."
"Wait." Wei Qingyan raised his hand to stop the guards, frowned, and asked Madam Yang, "Did your eldest daughter die of a serious illness? Then in your mansion... I am not at peace living here."
"No, Your Highness, he is a lunatic. Don't listen to him."
Madam Yang hurriedly explained, "Our eldest daughter is still unmarried, how could she be involved in those things? My poor Ling'er is having heart palpitations."
She wished the nobles would leave, but she couldn't let them leave just because they disliked the Yang Mansion.
Xiao Zhian frowned, "Why does your Yang family keep a madman as the court physician? Aren't you afraid that he might harm someone, or did he really kill your eldest daughter?"
After hearing this, the crazy Caifu doctor hurriedly said, "No, no, it's not a heart disease. The young lady doesn't have any heart disease. It was the madam who asked me to diagnose her like this.
The eldest lady is not sick. It was the lady who poisoned her. The eldest lady was killed by the lady. It has nothing to do with me, eldest lady. It has nothing to do with me.
If you want revenge, don't look for me, look for my wife. I just want to keep this job. I just follow orders..."
As he shouted, he kowtowed to Wei Qingyan desperately.
Madam Yang was both angry and frightened. "Why is he getting sicker? Take him away quickly."
She has been the housekeeper for many years, and the servants are all obedient to her. They dare not speak nonsense in front of the master. Even if they do, she can make the master believe her.
The trouble is that I’m afraid these nobles will believe it and want to interfere in this matter.
The doctor of the Cai Mansion, who was caught by the guards, struggled desperately and cried, "Miss, please don't catch me. I am not the one who hurt you..."
"What a sin, what a sin." Madam Yang covered her face with a handkerchief, tears welling up in her eyes. "He originally ran a clinic in the Imperial City, but because he offended a noble, he couldn't make it in the Imperial City, so he came to Wutong County.
That year, my wife was in great pain during her pregnancy. She couldn't eat and even vomited when she drank water. It was his prescription that saved me and the fetus in her womb.
The master then kept him as the palace physician, and even after discovering that he was insane, he couldn't bear to kick him out.
I didn't expect that he would do it again today and disturb Your Highness. I am truly terrified. I beg Your Highness to forgive me. I will definitely have someone keep an eye on him and not let him out to disturb you again."
Wei Qingyan glanced at the black aura shrouding Madam Yang's head, and said, "Forget it. How can I bother with a madman?"
However, my lady, you are kind-hearted and should find a doctor for him, lest he go crazy and hang himself or kill himself, which would bring him bad luck."
Madam Yang was planning to have the doctor of the Cai Mansion killed. When she heard this, her expression froze and she lowered her head. "Yes, I will send someone to find a doctor right away."
Then, with the support of Aman, he left with unsteady steps.
"Then Madam Yang must have been planning to murder the court physician. Why did my sister-in-law try to stop her?"
Xiao Zhian was puzzled, "And that Madam Yang, she deserves to die too."
"Because Yang Ling'er's grudge not only wants the person who harmed her to pay with his life, but also wants Yang Junshou to see the truth of everything. She needs Yang Junshou to repent and apologize."
The harmonious relationship between stepmother and stepdaughter is just an appearance.
The scary thing is that Yang Junshou believed it, or perhaps between family affection and beauty, he chose the latter.
Therefore, there was a misunderstanding between his daughter and his wife, and he only trusted his wife. Yang Ling'er was disappointed again and again, and finally died of heartbreak.
If those people were to die like this, it would not be enough to resolve Yang Linger's resentment.
What's more, there are another 48 lives that also need truth and justice.
Xiao Zhian thought about the news from his uncle and grumbled softly, "My mother too. How could she let such a fool be the governor of a county? I wonder what has become of the people here."
Neither Wei Qingyan nor Shi Yu responded.
Late at night, when the entire mansion had fallen silent, four figures suddenly leaped out.
Wei Qingyan and Wei Laosan collected their grievances, while Shi Yu took Xiao Zhian to the government office to check files from previous years.
Not long after, County Magistrate Yang and Lin Lanting and his entourage also returned to the County Magistrate's Mansion.
Xiao Zhian's attendants were already waiting there. "The Second Prince is very tired from traveling recently and has gone to bed. Your room is next to His Highness's. I will lead you there."
Lin Lanting nodded and said to Yang Junshou, "It's too late. You should go and rest too."
County Magistrate Yang, who originally wanted to send the person off in person, had to stop and respectfully see Lin Lanting off from a distance before returning to his own courtyard.
As soon as the door opened, a soft body bumped into his arms, "Master, you are back."
Her voice was trembling as she cried, and Yang Junshou's heart skipped a beat. "Why is Madam here? What happened?"
County Magistrate Yang had a snoring problem, and his wife had a light sleep after giving birth. She was often disturbed by the snoring and could not sleep well, and she even fell seriously ill because of it.
He felt sorry for his young wife and usually stayed in his own yard.
When the public grain in the warehouse of the descendants was full and needed to be distributed, they would go to Madam Yang's yard, tidy up the curtains, and return to their own yard after all the public grain was cleared out.
His wife felt sorry for his hard work and sometimes let him stay overnight, but she rarely came to Yang County Magistrate's courtyard.
She looked like she had cried so much that her eyes were red and swollen. Yang Junshou was heartbroken and carried her to the bed, asking with concern, "What happened?"
"I'm fine, I just missed you, Master. Why did you come back so late today?"
This reminded Yang Junshou of what happened during the day, and he hesitated and said, "Yes, there are some things, but don't worry, I will take care of it."
"Did something really happen?" Madam Yang held County Magistrate Yang's face in her hands. "What happened? Master, please don't hide it from me. I'll be worried."
As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes again, hanging on her eyelashes, making her charming little face look pitiful.
County Magistrate Yang's heart softened all of a sudden, and he told her everything that happened in the cave without hiding anything from her.
"Master, are you talking about our Ling'er? Didn't she really die that time in the mansion? Was she captured and suffocated to death in the coffin?"
She covered her lips, tears falling like beads from a broken string, "How could this happen? Who is so cruel? Ling'er must have been in so much pain and despair at that time."
"Pa." She suddenly slapped herself hard, "It's all my fault. I'm her mother, and I didn't realize she was being plotted against.
It's all my fault. I was worried that she might get sick and be discovered, so I said I wanted to bury her early. I didn't expect that I would fall into the trap of the bad guys. "
Madam Yang raised her hand to slap herself again, but was held by Yang Junshou. Unable to break free, she cried and fell into Yang Junshou's arms, "It's all my stupidity. How could I be so stupid that I didn't realize all this? Master, what should I do? My heart is breaking.
I have let Ling'er down. How am I going to live in the future? Master, I should go to the underworld and apologize to her..."
