Chapter 247 Don’t Forget Your Original Intention
Chapter 247 Don’t Forget Your Original Intention
Fu Zhijian was in a panic: "Qingyun, is Qingyun okay? Where is the child? Can the child be saved?" After saying this, he didn't wait for an answer and was about to go back.
The master stopped him with a shout: "Stop! How can you be so flustered? I haven't finished what I'm saying yet!"
Fu Zhijian was extremely anxious, but he couldn't leave. He was so anxious: "Master, do you have anything else to say?"
The eldest master snorted coldly: "Your wife has been poisoned too!"
"What?" Fu Zhijian's eyes widened, his legs suddenly went weak, and he almost fell to the ground.
Fortunately, Fu Zhiyi was there to help him, and he managed to stand still: "Master, how come the first wife was also poisoned? Who poisoned her?"
Although Fu Zhijian asked this, his first reaction was to look at Fu Zhiming.
Fu Zhiming was bewildered, and panicked when Fu Zhijian looked at him as if he wanted to eat him.
Even if he has the intention, he doesn't have the courage!
But more of it is the secret surprise and ambition that comes from the bottom of my heart.
Even in my panic, I couldn't help but think, if my eldest sister-in-law and stepmother were both poisoned, then the unborn child would definitely not be saved? Or would there be two corpses and three lives?
By then, right?
Unable to control himself any longer, Fu Zhiming quickly lowered his head to hide the upturned corners of his mouth and the joy in his eyes.
Looking at Fu Zhiming like this, how could Fu Zhijian not know what he was thinking?
His wife, children, and mother were all poisoned and their lives were in danger, but Fu Zhiming seemed to be very happy. Who wouldn't be annoyed when seeing this?
He clenched his fists and was about to rush forward.
Fu Zhiyi hugged her and whispered, "Calm down, don't be impulsive!"
Fu Zhijian was reminded by Fu Zhiyi and forced himself to calm down, but he still glared at Fu Zhiming fiercely.
Fu Zhiming lowered his head and pretended to be timid.
Fu Zhizhuo frowned and asked, "What kind of poison did the eldest wife and sister-in-law get? What did the miracle doctor say? Is there any hope? Has the person who poisoned them been found?"
After all, a bystander can see things more clearly, and he immediately asked the most critical questions.
The master sighed: "With the miracle doctor here, detoxification is not a difficult task. The miracle doctor has already prescribed medicine."
After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Only Fu Zhiming's eyebrows twitched twice, and the corners of his mouth, which were originally slightly raised, were suddenly flattened.
All of this was seen by the old marquis and the old lady sitting above.
The old marquis frowned, seeing that the eldest master hadn't gotten to the point for a long time and didn't seem to notice the quarrel between his two sons, he couldn't help but frown.
"Okay, let's get to the point!"
The eldest master Fu Heming's face froze, and then he slowly explained the purpose of calling everyone to Ruixuan Hall.
Take advantage of this opportunity to check the servants.
Although the master didn't say the rest of the words, everyone knew in their hearts that he was on guard against them.
However, the second and third wives had no objections.
After all, someone in the mansion poisoned the first wife and the grandmother.
If they don’t find out who poisoned them, what will happen if they poison themselves in the future? They are not as lucky as Mrs. Hu, who has a family acquaintance with a miracle doctor.
Furthermore, it would be helpful to investigate and clear myself of suspicion.
What's more, even if you disagree, there's nothing you can do. With the old marquis and the old lady in charge, who would dare to disobey?
And if I object at this time, wouldn't it make me look guilty?
So everyone agreed.
At this moment, except for the youngest children, all the other masters are in Ruixuan Hall.
They came in a hurry and only brought one or two trusted maids with them. They were all left in the yard and were watched by people around the old marquis and the old lady. They were not allowed to leave the yard.
Everyone sat down and a maid brought tea and snacks.
Everyone drank tea and ate snacks in silence, and no one dared to speak first.
Sun, Lu Zhenzhen, and Zhao sat next to each other.
Sun originally wanted to say a few words to Lu Zhenzhen, but when she looked up and saw Zhao, she immediately gave up the idea.
Zhao saw Sun's hidden suspicion of her and wanted to defend herself, but she didn't know how to say it.
He opened his mouth, lowered his head and stopped talking.
The atmosphere in Ruixuan Hall was silent and tense.
Fu Zhijian was the first to lose his composure: "I want to go see Madam and Yunniang—"
The eldest master wanted to speak to stop him, but the old marquis nodded and said, "Okay, you can go and take a look."
Fu Zhijian hurriedly thanked the old marquis and ran towards the main house.
The master frowned and said, "This person hasn't been thoroughly investigated yet, and already—"
The old marquis slowly interrupted him with a cup of tea, saying, "The one who was poisoned was his own mother, and the other was his wife. If Jian'er can still remain calm and sit still, then wouldn't he be unworthy of being a son and a husband? Do you think that in the future, if something happens to you, you will be lying in bed, while Jian'er is outside and unmoved?"
The old master blushed and explained, "I just think he's too impulsive. I want to temper his temper. After all, as the eldest brother, he should be responsible and magnanimous at critical moments—"
The old marquis slammed the teacup in his hand down on the table. "I think Brother Jian has done quite well! How is he irresponsible? How is he magnanimous? As the eldest grandson and the inevitable successor to the Marquisate, he does need more training. But if he doesn't forget his original intention, the training will become a hardship!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the room fell silent again.
The meaning of the old marquis' words was very clear. Fu Zhijian was the future heir to the marquisate, and no one else could have it. He asked the eldest master to stop making such trouble.
The master smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes! My son was distracted for a moment."
The others looked at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, not even daring to breathe.
Fu Zhiming lowered his head and his expression could not be seen, but the veins on his hands, which were tightly gripping the back of the chair, revealed his current restlessness.
Lu Zhenzhen glanced at Zhao.
Zhao looked as if she was out of her mind, and no one knew what she was thinking. She probably didn't even hear what was said.
Seeing that things seemed to be going wrong between his father and eldest brother, the Second Master smiled and tried to smooth things over: "Father, what you said is very true. Brother Jian has always been a good brother and has always been very caring towards his younger brothers. We would naturally be happy to see Brother Jian inherit the title in the future."
This also almost shows the attitude of supporting Fu Zhijian.
Although the third master Fu Heyin is not very sensitive in this regard, he is not stupid.
Seeing that his second brother had said so, he also added: "That's exactly what I meant."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "In my opinion, Father, you are already this old, and it is time for you to abdicate and enjoy a peaceful life. It would be better for you to submit a memorial to request titles for your eldest brother and brother Jian as soon as possible! Look around the capital, who is as old as your eldest brother and is still a prince?"
When it comes to stabbing someone in the heart, there is probably no one in the entire Marquis' Mansion more ruthless than the Third Master Fu Heyin.
In a word, the old marquis wanted to kick his youngest son out.
The old lady wished she had never given birth to such a fool.
