Chapter 425 You Must Pay for Your Brother's Sins
Jiang Ningwan's mind buzzed.
He was about to rush in immediately, "How is that possible! I gave her the detoxification pill and the heart protection pill, her life can be saved!"
Doctor Wang fell to his knees with a thud, breaking out in a cold sweat.
"I am incompetent!"
Qin Chengqian knelt beside the bed, staring blankly at the lifeless person on the bed, as if his soul had been sucked out.
Jiang Ningwan walked forward quickly, and when she saw Fan Ruoshuang's pale face, her heart skipped a beat.
how could be?
She had clearly gotten better before she came in!
She wanted to go up and check it out.
But Qin Chengqian was suddenly provoked. He stood up angrily and grabbed Jiang Ningwan by the collar, "It's you! You gave Ruoshuang something to eat and killed her!"
If she hadn't seen Qin Chengqian's bloodshot and painful eyes, Jiang Ningwan would have suspected that Qin Chengqian had set her up.
Qin Wenli rushed over and angrily pulled Qin Chengqian away.
"Ning Wan wanted to save Fan Ruoshuang!"
"In full view of everyone, Fan Ruoshuang suddenly suffered a stomachache at the banquet. Before that, Ning Wan and Fan Ruoshuang had no contact at all!"
"Why aren't you rushing to find the real culprit? Instead, you're slandering Ning Wan. What's your intention?"
Qin Chengqian was furious, "Okay! Investigate! Investigate thoroughly!"
Who else but Qin Wenli would want to get rid of this child the most? Jiang Ningwan was just a knife in Qin Wenli's hands.
Lu Lingsong's wedding ended early.
The Dali Temple came to investigate the case, sealed off the Lu family's house, checked all the food, but found no poison.
Qin Huaizhao asked each person individually about what happened.
After questioning Jiang Ningwan, Qin Huaizhao asked again: "Do you have any clues?"
Jiang Ningwan answered truthfully, "I took Fan Ruoshuang's pulse before she died. She must have taken some incompatible food that caused her to become toxic. We can check what she ate before coming to the wedding banquet."
"I gave her heart-protecting pills and detoxification pills."
She handed over the bottle of medicine.
Jiang Ningwan told Qin Huaizhao all the clues she knew. Qin Huaizhao wrote them down and nodded. "Thank you."
The emperor's eldest grandson is gone, leaving two lives lost.
The palace soon knew the news.
The emperor was furious.
Jiang Ningwan and others were soon summoned into the palace for questioning.
After leaving the imperial study, Jiang Ningwan and others went to Yongning Palace for a short rest.
Qin Wenli and Xie Lianyi both looked solemn and worried.
Seeing that their reactions were not normal, Jiang Ningwan asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you? You've been so absent-minded the whole way here?"
Qin Wenli wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Xie Lianyi said slowly: "I am pregnant too."
"It's been a month."
Hearing this, Jiang Ningwan was shocked, "This is good news!"
Xie Lianyi looked melancholy. "Originally, it was a good thing, but now...if others knew about it at this time, we would be even more suspected of being involved in Fan Ruoshuang's death."
After all, the position of crown prince must be fought for, and so must the position of the emperor's eldest grandson.
At this juncture, Qin Wenli is indeed highly suspicious.
Jiang Ningwan nodded thoughtfully, "That's true."
"But don't worry. Fan Ruoshuang's death will be investigated. You should keep the fact of your pregnancy a secret for now. After all, it's only been a month, and it's an unstable time."
"Fan Ruoshuang will be targeted, and so will you. It won't be too late to talk about it after the fetus is stable."
Xie Lianyi nodded.
The news of Fan Ruoshuang's two deaths spread, shocking the court and the public. The Dali Temple was under great pressure and solved the case within two days.
Fan Ruoshuang drank pregnancy-maintaining medicine before going to the Lu family to attend the wedding banquet. Because of Fan Ruoshuang's different physique, the imperial physician added some snow ginseng to the pregnancy-maintaining medicine to strengthen the fetal heart.
There is nothing wrong with this prescription.
But on the way out of the palace, Fan Ruoshuang passed by a rouge shop and bought a box of lip balm. There was cinnabar jade in the lip balm. She applied it on her lips and swallowed the cinnabar jade while eating at the wedding banquet.
This thing just happens to counteract the snow ginseng in the pregnancy-maintaining medicine and produces toxins.
But if timely treatment is given, although the fetus may not be saved, Fan Ruoshuang's life can be saved.
After the case is investigated.
Everyone was shocked.
It turned out to be just an accident.
But it is too much of a coincidence. Cinnabar jade and snow ginseng are not very common things.
But on the same day, it was eaten by Fan Ruoshuang.
Fan Ruoshuang’s death made the entire Fan family extremely sad.
It can be said that Fan Ruoshuang’s death was caused by Qin Chengqian.
The Fan family refused to give in.
The emperor was also furious and reprimanded Qin Chengqian for preventing Jiang Ningwan from treating her, which led to Fan Ruoshuang's death.
After appeasing the Fan family, the case was closed.
This day.
Imperial Physician Wang came to Fushuang Palace.
There were only Concubine Ni and Imperial Physician Wang in the palace.
"It's done very well." A smile appeared on Concubine Ni's lips.
Doctor Wang knelt on the ground and said earnestly, "Then my son's poison..."
Concubine Ni picked up a medicine bottle and threw it to him. "There are two antidotes in it. They will last for two months. Come back to me for the antidote after two months."
Doctor Wang quickly put away the medicine bottle and said, "Thank you, my Lord!"
The Lu family was the most affected by Fan Ruoshuang's death.
After all, seeing blood and two lives at the wedding banquet is not a good sign.
After the incident, Lu Lingsong was busy proving his innocence and cooperating with the Dali Temple in investigating the case, and he had never stayed in the mansion.
He finally returned two days later when the case was settled.
It was also at this time that Qin Suyi saw him.
They had only been married in the wedding hall but not in the bridal chamber, so they felt a little unfamiliar with each other.
Qin Suyi came forward with hot tea, "Husband, have some tea."
However, Lu Lingsong raised his hand and knocked over the tea in her hand, scaring Qin Suyi so much that she took a step back, at a loss.
"Husband..."
Lu Lingsong stood up, with anger between his brows, and a fierce and murderous look.
This forced Qin Suyi to retreat again and again.
Lu Lingsong grabbed her hand and looked at her fiercely, "The Qin family is really a disaster."
"Whoever gets involved will be unlucky!"
Qin Suyi's eyes were red with grievance, "My husband, are you talking about Fan Ruoshuang's death? What does this have to do with me?"
Her heart felt like it was being stabbed with needles, because she saw disgust and hatred in Lu Lingsong's eyes...
Lu Lingsong grabbed her arm and pulled her away with such force that it seemed as if he was going to break her arm.
She didn't even have time to cry out in pain before she stumbled into a room.
In the dim room, there are tablets of the Lu family.
"Did you see that? Lu Qingheng, my only sister, was killed by your brother!"
"You must pay for your brother's sins!"
As he said that, he grabbed Qin Suyi and pushed her to the ground, "Kneel here and repent!"
Every movement of Lu Lingsong made her cry so hard that tears fell. She raised her head and cried, "I haven't even seen her..."
"Husband, why are you taking your anger out on me?"
Her dissatisfaction earned her an angry slap from Lu Lingsong.
Snapped--
Qin Suyi fell to the ground, her cheeks flushed and blood oozing from the corners of her mouth.
"Once you enter my Lu family, don't act like a princess. You are just a slave. Do you understand?"
"You are not allowed to get up from the ground without my permission."
Qin Suyi's head was buzzing from the slap. She heard Lu Lingsong's footsteps leaving and the door closing. The room fell into darkness and she felt like she was locked in a cage.
