Chapter 577: Strange (Update 1)
Xie Anbai lowered his head and murmured:
"If I had given my father the medicine earlier, would he not have passed away?"
He couldn't accept the scene before him. The father who was always so majestic in his memory was now lying quietly on the bed, his hair gray and his broad hands cold.
Only then did he suddenly realize that his father had already grown old.
Before this, he had never thought about losing him.
But it all happened too fast!
Xie Anbai couldn't help but feel grief and regret welling up in his heart.
If he had been more sensible and obedient earlier, if he had not always gone against his father, if he had realized in time——
Would all this happening today not have happened?
When they were confronting in the courtyard just now, Xie Anjun accused him of killing his father. He refuted it with all his heart, but at this moment, Xie Anbai was really unsure.
Is he really wrong?
"Did the Marquis have any unusual circumstances during his lifetime?"
A clear and gentle voice sounded, breaking Xie Anbai's thoughts.
He raised his head stiffly, and then he noticed that Ye Chutang had come to his side, and he turned around and asked this question to the servant serving at the door.
The servant was a little flustered, and knelt down hurriedly, saying, "No! I swear on my life! After the Second Young Master left, the Marquis stayed alone in the room, and except for two low coughs, there was no other movement! Later, I came in to change the water for the Marquis, and then I found something wrong - Prince, please understand! Second Miss Ye, please understand! I am telling the truth! I would never dare to lie!"
Ye Chutang raised his eyelids slightly: "In other words, after the Second Young Master left, no one else entered this room except you?"
The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Yes, yes!"
Chen Yanchuan suddenly asked: "Where were the princess and the prince at that time?"
Xie Anjun suddenly felt offended, and a surge of anger shot up to his head: "What do you mean? Are you doubting me?"
"Didn't you also suspect your own brother just now?" Chen Yanchuan asked calmly, "I just felt a little strange that the Marquis suddenly became seriously ill and there was no one else to serve him except Xie Anbai. Why can't I ask this?"
Xie Anjun couldn't refute, so he could only suppress his anger and said: "I was dealing with some urgent matters at the time, and thought that since Miss Ye Er had already prescribed the medicine, there would naturally be no problem. Who would have thought--"
From his words, he still felt resentful towards both Ye Chutang and Xie Anbai.
As for Xiao Jiayi, there is no need to say more. After all, she is a princess and it is not her turn to do such a thing.
What's more, her relationship with the Xie family has been very tense recently, so she won't worry too much.
After listening to this, Ye Chutang looked at Xie Pei again.
Immediately, she said, "Second Master, please help check if there is anything unusual about the Marquis?"
Xie Anjun frowned immediately: "What do you want to do now!?"
Ye Chutang turned around, looking a little surprised: "Don't you want to know why the Marquis suddenly passed away?"
"I--"
Before Xie Anjun could come up with an answer, Xie Anbai responded, "Okay."
He stood up and checked Xie Pei's face, neck, hands and feet in turn.
Suddenly, he paused and his eyes fixed on a certain point.
Ye Chutang looked in the direction he was looking.
There seemed to be a faint crimson color between Xie Pei's lips and teeth.
Xie Anbai's hand was shaking, and just as it touched the corner of Xie Pei's lips, a streak of bright red slowly flowed out.
——His mouth was full of blood!
