Zhan Zhumen

Chapter 640
No one thought that the British Duke who thought he was unconscious and the imperial physician was at a loss and wanted to spread the word to seek medical treatment from all over the world, but the British Duke who had a bad luck came back to life.

The members of the Zhang clan who walked out of the hall were grateful that the British Duke had come back to life, but they dared not speak much.

They all saw Wu's performance just now, and they were afraid that there was really something inhumane about it.

Seeing that the eldest lady was about to convict Wu, who would have thought that the British Duke would arrive in time.And kicked them all out of the hall.

Several clansmen looked at each other and sighed.Missy is still too young.shook his head.

But Yang Shi and Huo Erhuai went out of the hall and walked past the Zhang clan. Someone greeted them, but the couple chose to turn a blind eye.

I'm angry.

Seeing that Xi'er was about to clear away the obstacles, she would avenge her mother.I never thought that the Duke of the Kingdom would appear!

Grandpa Guo didn't show up sooner or later, why did he show up at that time?
He also kicked out all the outsiders present, which is obviously trying to favor the Wu family!

I just feel sorry for their Xi'er and Nian'er, they didn't step on Wu Shi this time, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult in the future.

The couple even had some regrets and let the two children go back to Zhang's house.

After the outsiders left, only people from the British government remained in the hall.

After dismissing the juniors, there are still Mrs. Tai, the second-bedroom and third-bedroom couples, the two aunts in the first bedroom, Zhang Xie who refused to leave, and Zhang Biyao, Huo Xi Huo Nian, and Wu Shi who were left behind by Tete.

Mrs. Tai took a look at Huo Xi and Huo Nian, the servants who were close to her and her brother also stayed behind, and wanted to let them leave, but Mother Ma and the others were unmoved, and when they looked at Huo Xi, they were unwilling to even open their mouths.

Mrs. Tai had no choice but to give up.

Zhang Fu took a look at Huo Xi, and told Zhang Jin: "Go yourself, and follow Nannie's people to fetch the things."

Zhang Jin nodded and left the hall with Ting Lei.

"Wen Bi." Mrs. Tai called out, trying to stop her, but Zhang Fu ignored her.

"My lord! Does my lord not trust my concubines?"

Wu took the handkerchief and wiped away her tears again: "Today, my concubine was repeatedly insulted by a junior, will the Duke just watch?"

"Father, father, you have to decide for mother!" Zhang Xie also threw himself in front of Zhang Fu.

Zhang Fu coughed a few times, and asked him to go back and sit down with a tired face.

Zhang Xie refused and was called back by Zhang Biyao.

Zhang Biyao felt very uneasy.What exactly is disturbing, I can't say clearly.Some hearts were beating so fast that they disturbed her restlessness.

Glancing at his mother, and then at the calm Huo Xi opposite, he panicked even more.His eyebrows drooped.

Mrs. Tai couldn't bear to see Zhang Fu's sick face, she wanted to tell everyone to leave, but she glanced at Huo Xi and then at Mrs Wu, but she didn't say anything.

Forget it, one or two must be separated today, two gusts of wind cannot blow in the house at the same time.

Mrs. Tai sighed deeply.Some sense of powerlessness.

Unable to bear his son's hard work, he asked Huo Xi: "You just mentioned the Sha family's tomb in Shexian County? What's going on here? How did it involve personnel affairs in Shexian County?"

Huo Xi glanced at Mrs. Wu, seeing her uneasy face, she didn't dare to look at her, and smiled: "Oh, it's nothing, I just heard about a strange incident in the inner house in She County."

The hall was terribly quiet, all of them were human beings, and no one was willing to speak.

Mother Ma refused to let go of such a good opportunity: "Miss, what kind of miracle is it? Mammy is very curious, why don't you tell the maid about it?"

Huo Xi nodded cooperatively: "Okay. It just so happened that Ting Lei's things haven't been picked up yet. In She County, I heard that there is a woman named Sha who married the youngest son of the local magistrate. Her life was rich and happy, but Because she has not conceived for many years, she was disliked by her in-laws, depressed, and her body is getting worse day by day, and men are attracting bees and butterflies outside..."

"Then, a sister of Mrs. Sha came to the mansion and said she wanted to take care of her, so she stayed in her courtyard. Mrs. Sha felt that her time was short, so she kindly set her up with a man..."

"Isn't this great? It's better to be cheaper than your own friends if it's cheaper for outsiders." Mama Ma said.

"It's quite good. Seeing her friend getting along well with her husband, Mrs. Sha thought it was a meritorious service, and she created opportunities for the two of them to die with peace of mind. Only her natal family couldn't bear it, so they hired famous doctors for her everywhere. As her health improved day by day, Mrs. Sha still felt ashamed of her friend and allowed her to sit on an equal footing after entering the door. But she never expected that one day, she would fall asleep and never wake up."

"Ah, how come? Is there any change in the condition? Or something else?"

Everyone in the hall also looked at Huo Xi one after another, attracted by the story.

"Mrs. Sha's husband's family only said that she died of illness, but her mother's family insisted that her sister killed her. But after an inspection, it was just that there were more boziren added to the spices, and she ate something that could restrain her, so she didn't die. But The Sha family didn't believe it, and even said they would ask for an autopsy, and went to the gate of the yamen every day to make trouble. The magistrate was afraid that things would become serious, so he drove away the Sha family. In the end, the Sha family was so angry that they refused to let their daughter be buried in the husband's ancestral grave."

"and after?"

"Later, I heard that Mrs. Sha's friend was afraid that Sha's family would retaliate against her, so she was so frightened that she left her hometown, not even her good relatives. I heard that she went to other places to join relatives. Even her family left their hometown in the end. "

Zhang Fu's hands tightened.

Except for Zhang Xie who didn't hear anything, everyone in the hall lowered their heads.Few people know Wu's hometown, but Zhang Biyao knows that her mother is from She County.

The hall was eerily quiet.

But Mother Ma was not used to it, and discussed with Huo Xi with great interest: "Girl, do you think that friend of Mrs. Sha really hurt her? If that's the case, I'm too impatient. Wait a little longer, maybe Mrs. Sha If she is dead, she can be a regular wife. No matter how bad it is, even if Mrs. Sha is in good health, she will not be a regular wife, but Mrs. Sha can't have children, and her son depends on the mother, so she has the final say in the backyard?"

"Yeah, I'm too impatient." Huo Xi said lightly.

Wu Shi didn't expect that she would reveal her old background, right?Think you're superior?

But the ass hasn't been wiped clean yet.

Wu Shi clenched her back molars tightly, feeling great hatred in her heart.

Sha Yueying thought she would marry her, but she didn't know that the marriage was snatched from her!Just because of my low family background, I can't even be a wife.She was not in a hurry at first, and wanted to wait for her to die slowly, but she was fine again.

Even if Sha Yueying promised her to let her in and be equal, how could a wife and concubine be the same!
Huo Xi saw her grim expression, and her mood improved a lot.

Soon Ting Lei and Zhang Jin found the real spice she had hidden from Wu's house and from Wu's room.

"Aunt Wu, you added the spices of Baiziren to deceive others. In fact, the spices you handed over to Zhishu must be the ones in Uncle Jin's hands. But, you didn't expect that I would ask someone to exchange them. gone."

Wu Shi knew that she might have a hard time today, so she didn't even want to answer the conversation, only thinking about how to break the situation in her mind.

"You don't give much, and it will be gone after half an hour of burning, and not even a drop of ash will fall. You think that if you take both spices, even if you want to search, what you leave will be cypress The spice of benevolence is only slightly cold, no one can criticize you. You steal the day and think you are smart, but you didn't expect me to retaliate with an eye, so I also came up with a trick."

And I was afraid that Mrs. Wu had made a lot of preparations. After replacing the spice with Baiziren, Huo Xi destroyed the spice again and put other spices in the incense burner, just to let Zhang Fu sleep for a few more days.

However, she originally wanted Zhang Fu to sleep for a few more days, and then give him the antidote after she sorted things out and dealt with Mrs. Wu, but she did not expect that his body was really strong, and he woke up two days earlier.

Huo Xi turned to look at him. This time, the evidence was solid, what would he do, would he stop her?
