Chapter 629
Because Bai Xingyan drowned this child, he was under tremendous psychological pressure.
At first, it was his biological son after all. He drowned his biological son with his own hands, which is not something that ordinary people can do.
Bai Xingyan was forced to do this, and then he dared not look at the child more. He hurriedly asked someone to throw him into the suburbs. Not to mention a thin coffin, even a mat was not rolled on the child.
Who knew that later Gebu and the Ye family asked for an autopsy, but where did he go to find the autopsy? He had long known where he was told by the wild dog and wild wolf.
But this was Bai Xingyan's statement. The two servants who threw the corpse insisted that when they were throwing it, there were two evil dogs waiting there. As soon as they left, the evil dogs would immediately rush up to share the food.
But this is a one-sided statement after all. For Chunyu Ao of the Ye family and Gebu, this incident ends up being a life without seeing people or death without seeing corpses, which is simply a unsolved case.
So, with the belief of pursuing the truth, the Ye family secretly sent many people to find the child, and at the same time spread to the surrounding villages and towns. Every child of the same age as the child would secretly investigate.
One day, Hong's family had no choice but to hide it near Shangdu City, so they had to beg their elder brother Hong Zhenhai to take the child to a farther place. Hong Zhenhai was about to go out to get the goods, so he simply took the child with him. In order to cover up, he even found a maid to pretend to be a concubine, making it a child he gave birth to was an illegitimate child with his wife on his back.
The servants dared not tell the master's personal affairs. Besides, the eldest lady has never been able to do anything, so people think that having a maid left for the master is also a good thing. Later, when he returned to Beijing, Hong Zhenhai left all the servants in other provinces, in charge of the business of other provinces, and never let them go back to Kyoto again.
Hong's family was like this, hiding from Tibet with this child. Finally, the noise outside in the past three years has become less frequent. It seems that the Ye family is looking at the hopeless search. So many years have passed, and there is nothing wrong with Bai Xingyan's observation, so I feel relieved.
But I wasn't completely relieved. There were still small forces searching occasionally, but fortunately, it was not as strict as before.
Hong thought about the past and looked at the boy sleeping soundly on the kang. Her heart began to feel sad again, and her eyes also turned red.
Yuan Po brought in a bowl of porridge and whispered to Hongshi: "Madam, drink a bowl first to warm up your body. Although it is summer, it is still quite cold in the early morning. Look at how my wife is traveling all night, so her body must be cold."
Hong nodded, and was not polite. She brought it over and blew it gently, and started drinking it one by one.
Yuan Po also sat down on the edge of the kang, reached out and touched the boy's head, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Hong's heart skipped a beat, "The eldest young master was burned again last night?"
Yuan Po nodded, "Yes, it got hot again last night. He was shouting nonsense in a mess, but couldn't hear clearly what he was saying. Fortunately, it was no longer hot now, so let's get through it again."
Hong sighed lightly, "How many times has this been?"
Yuan Po laughed, "How can this be considered light? The eldest young master has a fever twice or three times a month. We dare not hire a doctor, so we just serve ourselves with local prescriptions. The old slave said that he shouldn't say, it's a miracle that this child can live until now."
She said this but stopped talking. Hongshi saw that she had something in her heart, so she said, "Yuanpo, you are the mother-in-law brought by Sister Chunyu from Gebu. I have never treated you as an outsider. You can say anything if you have anything to do!"
Yuan Po is indeed not from the Eastern Qin Dynasty in the Central Plains, she is from Gebu, but because her mother is from the Central Plains, and she has more of her appearance, she can't see any clues in her appearance.
Back then, Chunyu Lan and Shili Hongzhuang married Bai Xingyan. In addition to carrying the dowry again and again, he also brought many confidants from Gebu, and this Yuan Po was one of them.
Later, as the second prince of Gebu lost power, and as Chunyu Lan lived in the Duke's Mansion became increasingly miserable, the servants who followed Gebu were basically dealt with by Bai Xingyan. Even the remaining few who were not dealt with were also defeated by the Ye family after Chunyu Lan died.
This woman is an exception, and she can live to this day thanks to the Hong family.
The Hong family is smart and has more ideas than Chunyu Lan, who is a pure-minded person. Moreover, the Hong family is more informed in business, so she knew that something happened to Gebu almost at the same time as Bai Xingyan.
She didn't dare to tell Chunyu Lan at that time, but she vaguely felt that this matter might be a big deal. If she didn't make some arrangements in secret, she would probably be too late if something big happened.
But how far-sighted can a woman in a deep boudoir? What she wants to preserve her strength is just to leave some people who will marry with Gebu for Chunyu Lan. If something really happens, at least these people are loyal than the Bai family.
So she began to transfer those Gebu's slaves, but unfortunately Bai Xingyan's movements were too fast. As soon as she found an excuse to transfer Yuan Po away, Bai Xingyan had already started a plan to go out of the hall, and those Gebu's slaves also suffered a catastrophe.
The only woman was sent to take care of the child. When Yuan Po heard that her lady gave birth to twins and a son was wandering outside, she burst into tears on the spot. When she heard that Bai Xingyan drowned the child with her own hands, she was so angry that she rushed back and fought with Bai Xingyan.
But in the end, she still couldn't fight for this life because she knew that she would die if she went there. If she died, who would take care of this child? How hard is this child's life!
Yuan Po, who was in his fifties, is now almost seventy years old and looks old. Hong family wanted to send a maid to take care of them several times, but Yuan Po always said that the fewer people know about this, the better. Although she is old, it is still okay to take care of a child.
If you take care of it, it will take more than fourteen years.
"Madam." Yuan Po said, "Although the old slave has been hiding with the eldest master, I can occasionally hear some things about Shangdu City when I hear the villagers talking. The old slave heard that the eldest lady has returned from Luocheng. Not only has he returned, he has also learned a lot of skills. Now she has been adopted by the emperor as her adopted daughter, becoming the princess of Tianci, and she also holds a fiefdom called Tianci Town. Not only that, the eldest lady has also become a miracle doctor, and her medical skills are unmatched, and even the doctor of the great country is willing to give up the disadvantage. Madam, are these things true?"
Yuan Po stared at Hong, and the old-fashioned eyes were filled with hope.
How could Hongshi not understand what she meant? "You want to say that since the eldest lady is so successful, why don't she tell the eldest lady about this, let the eldest lady protect her brother, and also let the eldest lady treat her brother?"
Yuan Po nodded, "Yes, madam, it's not a big deal for us to hide like this. The old slave is always unwilling to let the eldest son be so stupid for the rest of his life, and even more unwilling to let him be the eldest son of Duke Wen's mansion, but he can only live such a life of enduring humiliation and living a life of silence."
Hong sighed, "I didn't think so, but the noise made by the lady now is too big. There are more people staring at her than Duke Wen. I have wanted to tell her this many times, but I am afraid that she will be targeted by her when she comes to see the eldest son. I actually thought about letting the young lady take the eldest son to Tianci Town, but now is not the time. The young lady cannot always follow the eldest son. Once the young lady is not here, there will be too many enemies."
She put down the bowl of porridge in her hand and persuaded Yuan Po, "Let's wait a little longer, wait until the lady stands more steadily, and wait until the lady clears the enemy cleaner, the brothers and sisters will recognize each other sooner or later. Don't worry, the lady must love her brother, do you remember that I told you that the lady knew about the eldest master and threw the prince into the water to soak every night in order to avenge the eldest master. The prince now doesn't talk about his health, but his spirit is on the verge of collapse."
Yuan Po nodded, and cried, "I really miss the lady! When the old slave left, the lady was still a baby who could only be held in her arms. When the old slave was in the mansion, he had to see the lady sleep well before leaving. He really missed her."
Hong's eyes were always red, "It's almost time. The Ye family is over, and it's Gebu's turn next."
She wiped her tears and looked at the boy who was still asleep on the kang. She reached out to touch his forehead. Seeing that it was indeed no longer hot, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she put down a small paper bag she brought with her and told Yuan Po: "This is the pill I asked Zhenzhen to bring out from Jinsheng Pavilion. It was a pill that was described by the eldest young master's condition. It was taken twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. After breakfast, before going to bed, just pinch it into small pieces and chew it. I tried it, it was not bitter."
Yuan Po quickly took the medicine, a little excited, his hands trembling.
"Is this the pill taken out of the young lady's current pavilion?" She still insisted on calling Miss Bai Heran, because in her heart, only Bai Heran and the young man who was sleeping on the kang were the legitimate children of the Bai family, the real eldest master and the eldest lady.
Seeing that she was so excited, Hong nodded and said, "It was not only taken out by the Geopause in the Year of Life, but also made by the lady himself. The lady is now superb in medical skills, and she also makes her very poisonous. Even the doctor Na Luoye poison died at her hands."
"Then the eldest young master will be cured after taking this pill, right?" Yuan Po looked at Hongshi with anticipation.
But Hong Shi disappointed her this time, "How could it be cured? You have to see a doctor and look at him and ask him questions. It is impossible to cure the pills I took out by listening to my description. However, even if the treatment is not good, the condition can be controlled and at least it will not worsen. For example, this fever disease, I believe that after taking it for a period of time, it should improve."
Yuan Po showed disappointment on his face, but in just a moment, he soon became happy again, "This is not bad. As long as we control the fever first, we will have the confidence to survive until the day when the eldest lady comes to see her brother, and the eldest young master will suffer less in the future."
She really felt sorry for this young man. She had been fourteen years, and she knew the best in her heart how much the child had suffered, and she would cry every time.
Hong Shi patted Yuan Po, "Don't worry, now there is hope, the lady has begun the revenge plan. The destruction of the Ye family is the first step. Sooner or later, she will seek justice from Chunyu Ao."
As the two were talking, they suddenly heard a strange sound from outside. Hong was shocked - "Who?"
