Chapter 317: Fleeing from the Capital in Panic
Leng Rongyue stared at Lu Huai and asked, "What did they say and do when they got there?"
Lu Huai thought about it for a moment and said, "They dismissed the people around them.
At that time, besides the three of them, there was only...only me and my cousin, and...and an old lady named Zhou.
She served the old lady closely."
"What did you talk about together?" Leng Rongyue asked in a deep voice.
“At first, the Marquis Qinxing blamed the old lady and the concubine for being too cruel.
He said... that the child was also his flesh and blood, so why didn’t they abort the child without his consent?
He also said... he also said that if he waited until the child was born, if it was a son, he would have a legitimate son.
The Duke of Anguo's Mansion, seeing that the heir to the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion was the son of Fu Baozhen, would not continue to target him for his fraudulent marriage and concubine.
On the contrary, for the sake of their legitimate son, they will continue to support the Marquis Qinxing's Mansion.
If I give birth to a daughter, with my and Fu Baozhen's looks, the girl will be of great use in the future!
The concubine started crying and making a scene, saying that she didn't want to be a concubine forever!
She wants to be a real lady!
The old lady also threw a tantrum and cursed Marquis Qinxing, saying that Marquis Qinxing deliberately wanted to put a statue of a noble ancestor on her head to suppress her, so that she would never be able to straighten her back or raise her head!
And they said... and they said... that woman’s dowry is already in the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion, so what else do they need that woman for?
They also said that as long as they got rid of the woman without leaving any trace and left her large dowry, they could live their lives with their heads held high and their heads held high!
They could also enjoy the woman's dowry at will, instead of having to get the woman's permission if they wanted to use a little money, as if they were asking for her charity!
It's so frustrating to spend money like that!"
Humph! Leng Rongyue snorted coldly, thinking: Shameless person, so shameless that he has no bottom line!
"What happens after this?" Leng Rongyue asked.
"After that, Marquis Qinxing hesitated for only a moment and then nodded.
Originally... originally, they just asked me to prescribe a medicine to abort the fetus in Madam's belly so that Madam would not give birth to another legitimate son or daughter.
If Madam takes good care of herself from now on, she would never… would never lose her life.
But later... later, they asked me to prescribe another medicine, which was for... for women who were weak due to miscarriage.
That medicine is equivalent to... equivalent to... a chronic... a chronic killing drug!
However, before the medicine could be used, news came to the Anguo Mansion that the lady was ill.
The Duke of Anguo's Mansion, the old lady, the eldest master, the eldest lady, the second master, the second lady, and the three young masters all came to visit and brought the court doctor with them.
The result of the court physician's diagnosis was that the lady was pregnant, but she mistakenly used strong and pungent drugs to abort the fetus, which caused the current bleeding symptoms.
At that time, the court physician also prescribed medicine for the lady's conditioning.
The lady's health also improved.
Later, I heard that the concubine secretly replaced Madam’s medicine with the one I prescribed… the chronic life-threatening medicine. After Madam drank it for a few days, she started bleeding heavily again… and then… and then…”
Leng Rongyue raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears on her face, gritted her teeth, and looked at Lu Huai in front of her coldly, "It is said that doctors have a kind heart!
Doctors are supposed to save lives.
However, killing people with medical skills is more abominable than killing people with a killer!
But... Doctor Lu, since you have done something evil, did you get the one thousand taels of silver?" Leng Rongyue's words were full of hatred and sarcasm.
Lu Huai stole a glance at Leng Rongyue, then quickly lowered his eyes, "At that time... at that time, the concubine did give me... gave me a thousand taels of silver.
I was afraid... I was afraid that the people from Marquis Qinxing's Mansion would kill me to silence me afterwards, so I went home, grabbed some personal items, and left quickly!
Later, I heard that people from the Duke of Anguo's Mansion took the court doctor to the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion, and I became even more scared!
At that time, I was thinking that if the Marquis Qinxing’s Mansion didn’t kill people to silence them, the Duke Anguo’s Mansion would not forgive me once they found out the truth!
With this one thousand taels of silver, it would be better to... it would be better to just flee the capital and hide somewhere else for a few years.
I didn’t want my home in the capital anymore. I didn’t even lock the door. I just shut it and moved into a small inn in the south of the city.
Because it was already late at night and the city gates were closed, I had to wait until the next day to leave the capital.
However, early the next morning, when I was about to leave the capital, I thought about taking one more look at my little courtyard and then leaving forever.
As a result, before I got closer, I saw from afar that my yard had been burned into ruins!
The neighbors were still gathered there. It looked like they had just put out a fire and the place was a mess!
Fortunately, I had changed my clothes, covered my face tightly, and was at a distance, so no one recognized me.
In my panic, I didn't dare to stop for a moment and went straight out of the capital and headed south.
I had originally thought of chartering a carriage and heading south, escaping as far away as possible!
But then I thought, if there were people chasing me, they would definitely calculate the time and chase me at full speed from a distance.
Then I might as well hide somewhere near the capital, maybe it will be safer! "
