Chapter 452: It is confirmed that Lord Zhao committed suicide for love
Zhao Anping really couldn't calm down at the moment. His younger sister fainted again, and his second brother was still at the border. Zhao Anping was grateful that Fan Yong was here to support him.
He patted Fan Yong's shoulder sincerely and said in a hoarse voice, "Thanks, brother-in-law."
Fan Yong could only smile and say, "We're all family, you're welcome."
At this moment, he was thinking, could it be that his elder brother was threatening him?
After that, Fan Yong paid special attention to Zhao Anping's actions, for fear of missing any key clues.
Zhao Anping was obviously aware that Fan Yong was watching him, having learned from Zhao Lingmeng's experience. Zhao Anping simply assumed that his brother-in-law was worried that he wouldn't be able to cope after losing both his father and mother.
Zhao Anping felt warm in his heart and thought that this brother-in-law was really kind-hearted and much better than the previous one.
The imperial physician arrived quickly. Zhao Anping only then ordered someone to change his mother's clothes. It was the same imperial physician Zhao Lingmeng often used.
When the servant took Princess Funing's order to invite the imperial physician, Imperial Physician Feng Shan was in the Imperial Hospital, so it was natural for him to come.
As Doctor Feng was led into the palace by a servant, he saw Prince Consort Fan and Marquis Wu'an both present. He hurried to pay his respects. He had a bad feeling. The Marquis Wu'an's mansion was filled with white. Could something have happened to His Highness in his excitement?
No matter what he was thinking, Feng Shan quickly saluted.
"Doctor Feng, please stop being so polite and come and see what's wrong with Old Marquis Zhao?"
The patient was the most important thing, so Doctor Feng didn't insist and immediately stepped forward with his medicine box. At that moment, he felt relieved. After all, it was not Princess Funing who was in trouble.
But when he saw the expression on Lord Zhao's face, his worries, which had just been put at ease, were lifted up again. When he came, he already knew that Madam Wei had passed away.
But why did Lord Zhao also look like he was already dead? He hurried forward to feel his pulse. Before he felt the pulse and just touched Lord Zhao's hand, he started sweating.
He checked it again carefully. In just a short while, the clothes on his back were soaked.
Fan Yong noticed Doctor Feng's nervousness and soothed him, "Don't be nervous, Doctor Feng. Just tell us the truth. We won't take our anger out on you, and neither will Your Highness."
"Thank you, Prince Consort Fan," Doctor Feng said, his hands still working. It looked like they knew that Old Marquis Zhao had passed away, and now they probably wanted to know why. He was definitely going to find out the cause and symptoms.
Fortunately, Lord Zhao's symptoms were not complicated. He compared the symptoms with the poison in his mind and got it.
"Replying to Prince Consort Fan and Marquis Wu'an, Lord Zhao has been poisoned. He has been poisoned by a rare poison in Jing Country that kills in one step. It's not that there is no antidote for this poison, but it kills extremely quickly, in just one step.
Usually there is no time to rescue, so it is called death in one step.
However, although this poison is powerful, it has many disadvantages. It is red in color, has a strong odor that is difficult to cover up, and is basically insoluble in anything.
Prince Consort Fan and Marquis Wu'an express their condolences! "
The more Feng Shan explained, the more surprised he felt. Such a strong poison could not have been taken by mistake. Could it be that Old Marquis Zhao committed suicide?
After hearing Feng Shan's explanation, Fan Yong was the most stunned. He even glanced at Zhao Anping, who was already complaining about the cruelty of the deceased old Marquis Zhao in front of Doctor Feng. He wondered if he had really wronged his brother-in-law.
Zhao Anping had long suspected his father had committed suicide. In his mind, his father and mother had always had a good relationship. As for concubines, weren't they just a thing? He hadn't expected his father to actually follow his mother.
So now he was nagging Old Marquis Zhao in front of him, without any psychological burden, regardless of how many brothers and sisters there were.
While Fan Yong was stunned, Zhao Anping had already said, "My younger sister has fainted from crying over this, and she even let Madam Wei see my father and beat him up. How could she be so irresponsible!"
Doctor Feng standing next to him had only one thought at this moment, that it turned out that Marquis Wu'an actually had such a temper in private, but even he had to admit that Marquis Wu'an was right to scold him.
Fan Yong glanced at his brother-in-law, unable to put into words, and then said to the absent-minded Doctor Feng beside him, "Doctor Feng, please take another look at His Highness."
Feng Shan came back to his senses when he heard Fan Yong say that. He quickly asked, "Your Highness? What's wrong with Your Highness?"
Seeing how excited Doctor Feng was, Fan Yong quickly explained, "It's nothing. It's just that His Highness was too excited just now and I knocked him unconscious. Now he wants Doctor Feng to take a look."
"That's good, that's good. Let's go and see where His Highness is." Feng Shan didn't see anyone at this time, so he didn't dare to be too reassured, so he quickly asked Fan Yong to lead the way.
Fan Yong was standing right in front of where Zhao Lingmeng was lying. When he heard Doctor Feng say that, he immediately made way.
I saw the three brothers Zhao Houjing surrounding Zhao Lingmeng to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation.
As soon as Doctor Feng passed by, Zhao Houyang moved aside so that Doctor Feng could have room to see Zhao Lingmeng.
Doctor Feng hurried forward to take Princess Funing's pulse, and only after feeling her pulse did he feel relieved.
"Your Highness, there is nothing to worry about. You have to make sure that Your Highness eats and drinks for the next few days. You can't let him not eat anything. Otherwise, he won't be able to bear it." Feng Shan said this mainly to Prince Consort Fan.
Upon hearing this, Prince Consort Fan nodded to indicate that he understood. He immediately ordered someone to go forward and stuff his purse into Doctor Feng's pocket, and then had Doctor Feng sent out.
Before leaving, Doctor Feng bowed deeply to Lord Zhao, then left with his medicine box. Doctor Feng was deeply moved. He had never expected such a great and legendary figure to have such an unexpected ending.
Only after seeing Imperial Physician Feng leave did Zhao Anping personally begin to change the clothes of the old Marquis Zhao, crying and nagging as he did so. The scene was as magical as it could be.
Just as Zhao Anping took off Zhao Laohou's clothes, he found a letter inside. He put it aside, thinking he would wait until his second brother came back to read it together.
The people of Yuanjing first received the news from the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion that Madam Wei had passed away. Then they received the news that Marquis Zhao had also passed away along with Madam Wei. This news caused an uproar throughout Yuanjing.
When the emperor heard the news, he immediately brought his men back from his villa outside the city. No matter what, he had to come and see this old man.
When the emperor in the palace heard about this, he also found it incredible. The main reason was that when the old Marquis Zhao was alive, no one had ever heard of him being a romantic! How could he become a romantic at such an old age?
