Chapter 368 The murderer is him
Zhao Xuan had a gloomy face and immediately ordered the steward to find another doctor.
In addition, he had to go to the palace to invite the imperial physician.
After all, Zhao Xuan was an official who had done great things before, and he would never tolerate his wife being murdered.
Send someone to investigate immediately and look for clues at the crime scene.
Gao Wanxin fell into a deep coma, but she seemed to hear someone talking. In a trance, she seemed to see Yier when she grew up. Her Yier looked exactly like Zhao Xuan when he grew up. Next to Yier stood a young boy, who was delicate and looked a little dull, with lifeless eyes.
He seemed very old, at least fifteen or sixteen years old, but the child was like a three-year-old baby, pestering Yier and calling him brother.
He also wanted to find his mother.
She seemed to see herself, an old woman with messy hair and wearing shabby clothes.
Gao Wanxin couldn't believe that it was herself.
In a blink of an eye, she saw Zhao Chengliang's wife Zhang, wearing gorgeous clothes, standing with Zhao Chengliang, watching the miserable end of the three of them.
"Do you know why your youngest son is so stupid? It's because you are responsible for all the sins you committed."
"Gao Wanxin, your retribution is on your son."
Gao Wanxin whispered, "No, no..."
Zhao Chengliang stepped on her legs with his feet. Her Yier wanted to protect him, but was beaten with sticks by Zhao Chengliang's men. Her poor little son vomited blood and cried for his mother.
She wanted to find Zhao Xuan and ask him to avenge her and her mother, but she didn't see Zhao Xuan.
In a blink of an eye, she seemed to see the mourning hall.
Zhao Xuan, Zhao Xuan is gone...
Is this the outcome?
After Zhao Xuan left, would this be the fate of her and her two sons?
***
Zhao Xuan invited the imperial physician to come and check Gao Wanxin's injuries. He said that she had suffered a vital injury and if she wanted to wake up, she had to rely on herself.
What the imperial physician said was the same as what the doctor said.
All Zhao Xuan has to do now is wait, even though he is very anxious.
When he was taking care of her, he found Gao Wanxin crying.
"Wanxin, Wanxin, wake up! Do you really want to keep sleeping like this? Don't you want our son anymore?"
Zhao Xuancai discovered that Gao Wanxin was pregnant.
Because of this injury, she lost the baby in her belly. The blood in her body came not only from her injury, but also from the baby in her belly.
She is afraid that she will not be able to give birth again in this life.
Gao Wanxin's tears kept flowing, but she showed no sign of waking up.
Suddenly, the voice of the guard came from outside the door.
"Sir, we have a clue."
"Just say it directly." Zhao Xuan said sternly.
The guard hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "We found out those people were paid to do things for others. Their goal was to assassinate the lady."
"Get to the point." Zhao Xuan was already impatient. "Who is it?"
"Sir, please go and see it yourself."
Zhao Xuan's temples throbbed when he heard the guard's words. He was worried about someone from his family, he was worried about Zhao Lingxi...
He went to the palace to see Zhao Lingxi several times and told her that Gao Wanxin was just a woman with no background or family background. Even if she gave birth to two sons, it would not affect Zhao Chengliang in any way.
Zhao Lingxi made it clear that now that she had entered the palace and became the queen, she would not interfere too much in the Zhao family's affairs.
Zhao Xuan thought, if it wasn’t Zhao Lingxi, then who could it be?
Could it be that bastard Zhao Chengliang?
After all, Gao Wanxin had said some harsh words to him before.
Could it be that he was holding a grudge and had murderous intentions?
According to Zhao Xuan's understanding of his son, Zhao Chengliang could eat, drink and have fun, but he would never dare to kill or harm anyone.
But when Zhao Xuan saw the people captured by the guards and heard what the assassins said.
Only then did he realize that it was Zhao Chengliang.
"Sir, what should we do now?" The guards did not dare to arrest anyone rashly. Moreover, Zhao Chengliang was still in Jizhou at this time, not in Kyoto.
Zhao Xuan punched the wall in anger, blood was flowing from the back of his hand, but he didn't feel any pain at all.
He really didn't expect it to be Zhao Chengliang.
He doesn't want to live anymore.
Zhao Xuan didn't sleep all night and stayed with Gao Wanxin all night. The next morning he went to his mother's yard.
Seeing Maidong and Lu Yu were there, even Heng'er was there.
"You didn't sleep all night? Xuanlang, you are not a child anymore. You should have a good rest and don't ruin your body." The old lady said with concern.
Lu Yu looked at Zhao Xuan and said softly, "Mai Dong and I came to pay our respects to Grandma this morning. Seeing that she was in a bad mood, we accompanied her for breakfast."
"Uncle, don't worry too much, she will be fine."
The "she" Lu Yu was talking about was naturally Gao Wanxin.
Mai Dong looked at Zhao Xuan and asked, "Did Wanxin react at night?"
Zhao Xuan shook his head, but then he thought of something and said, "She cried. She seemed to be crying."
Zhao Xuan even wondered if Gao Wanxin knew who wanted to kill her, so she felt wronged.
Zhao Xuan looked at his mother and suddenly said, "I have always protected Cheng Liang. Even though I married Gao Wanxin, I always regarded Cheng Liang as the future heir of the Zhao family. I never expected, I really didn't expect, that he would do such a treasonous thing..."
At this point, Maidong had already guessed something.
"Master Zhao, what do you mean by this? Could it be that Wanxin was injured because of your eldest son?"
"Maidong, don't speculate. That's not what your uncle meant."
"Let's go back first. Uncle wants to talk to grandma."
How could Lu Yu, who is so smart, not know this? If Mai Dong can guess it, how could he not guess it?
But this is a major matter that involves whether Zhao Chengliang will be handed over to the authorities.
"Lu Yu, don't pull me. If he really did this, I will definitely report it to the police. Why, just because he's the son of Lord Zhao and the current queen's brother, can he just kill someone and let it go?"
Lu Yu carried Maidong out.
Only Zhao Xuan and the old lady of the Zhao family were left in the room, and the others were pushed out.
"Xuan Lang, is what Mai Dong said true? Was it Cheng Liang who caused Wan Xin's injury?"
Zhao Xuan nodded. "My people have already investigated. They also discovered that Cheng Liang had gambled with someone in Jizhou and owed tens of thousands of taels of silver. Wanxin saw that he was not motivated to make progress, so she tried to provoke him with words, thinking that it might inspire some fighting spirit in him. Unexpectedly, he actually wanted to kill Wanxin."
"Luckily he didn't try to murder the two children."
"Now, as long as Wanxin wakes up, everything will be fine. If Wanxin doesn't wake up, I can't protect him..."
Old Madam Zhao was nervous for a moment and wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
"Why is Cheng Liang like this? He was not like this before."
"This is all Wanxin's fault. Tell me, why did you say those provocative words to him for no reason?"
The old lady finished speaking, and then she added, "I don't care anymore. I don't care about the affairs of this family anymore."
