Chapter 108 The Twists and Twists of the Truth (Part [-])
Rong Xichang was so frightened that he asked the accountant to bring over the account book, counted the property in everyone's hands, and asked them to hand it over.

Those who originally wanted to hide their secrets went back to their rooms and took out their things.

It was Rong Hai's wife who decided to take out Rong Hai's share.

Rong Xichang saw that all these things were ready, and then he said flatteringly: "My lords, these properties have always been taken care of by the old man, and the old man took back all these properties, cultivated the descendants of the direct line in the future, and then passed them on. feasible?"

County magistrate Zhang looked at Rong Hai's pleading eyes, and felt that he was really pitiful, and when he was about to nod, a voice suddenly sounded.

"My lord, my lord!"

Everyone turned their heads together and saw Rong Mei showing up at the door with an old doctor, panting.

Rong Mei knelt down with a plop: "My lord, these properties cannot be handed over to Rong Xuan."

County magistrate Zhang was very annoyed, but he still frowned and said, "Oh, who are you? What do you mean if you can't hand it over to Rong Xuan?"

Rong Mei raised her head: "The woman is the daughter of Rong Xichang, the daughter of Rong's parents, and Rong Xuan's aunt. I just found out today that Rong Xuan is not my fourth brother's biological son."

boom!Everyone looked at Rong Xuan with incredulous eyes.

None of them thought that Rong Mei would say such a thing.

How could Rong Xuan not be Rong Shan's eldest son?
The expressions on the faces of the eldest princess and Lin Xi in the crowd also changed, and the shock on their faces was no less than that of the others.

Although there are already guesses, when they really want to know the truth, how can they be less excited than others.

The eldest princess supported Lin Xi's arm, and stared at Rong Mei with her eyes exposed through the veil, waiting for her to speak.

Nalanjing frowned, glanced at Rong Xuan, and saw that his brows were as motionless as a mountain, so he was not in a hurry to speak.

Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Rong Mei said sternly: "This matter started 20 years ago. At that time, the woman remembered that it was the end of October, and the fourth brother came back from Shanghai to pick up the fourth younger brother and sister back to Beijing to take up their post. After Youzhou, Rong Xuan, who was only more than three months old, contracted smallpox unfortunately, so he had to go back to Fucheng for treatment. It happened that the woman and her husband were in Fucheng to see a doctor... Later, it was eight years after Rong Xuan returned to Youzhou. The wife wondered at the time, how could the child survive smallpox?"

"It was also by chance that the woman once again met the old doctor Wu who was seeing a doctor in Fucheng at that time, and praised him for his excellent medical skills. He could even cure smallpox. Mentioning that the fourth brother and his wife took their child to see smallpox in the past 20 years, old doctor Wu said that the child died at that time, and he looked at the dying, how could he survive?"

Rong Mei looked at Old Doctor Wu at the side, and motioned for him to speak.

The old doctor Wu quickly knelt down and said: "Everything this lady said is true. At that time, after a few days of high fever, the child's condition worsened and he lost his breath. If you die, this old man will never remember wrongly."

"The old man still remembers that the child had a large black birthmark on the back of his hand."

Rong Mei then said: "The woman also clearly remembers that the eldest son of the fourth brother has a large black birthmark on the back of his hand since he was born, but when he saw Rong Xuan again, it was already eight years later, and the black birthmark disappeared. .”

When Rong Xichang heard this, his eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly knelt down: "My lord, since Rong Xuan is not a descendant of the Rong family, I will immediately remove him from the genealogy. Yuer and the others are still young and have no ability to manage these industries. Keep it old."

The eyes of the people staring at Rong Xuan changed, with a bit of disgust. Fortunately, his wife still wants the property of the Rong family. It turns out that she is not a descendant of the Rong family, and her motive is simply wolfish ambition, which is outrageous.

Everyone talked and pointed.

Rong Yu and Rong Qian's faces were a little pale, they didn't suspect that the eldest brother was not his own brother, but hated their verbal humiliation to Rong Xuan.

Nalanjing and Rong Xuan were extremely calm, it was ridiculous to want to make a big fuss about Rong Xuan's identity just based on the one-sided words of an old doctor and Rong Mei.

Hua Shengyan gave the child to Rong Xuan, knelt heavily beside Rong Xichang, and a gentle voice sounded: "My lord, Rong Xuan is the eldest son of the Rong family, I can testify to it!"

Magistrate Zhang motioned for her to continue.

Hua Shengyan's gentle voice sounded: "Xuan'er did have a black birthmark on the back of his hand when he was a child, but it's not a birthmark, it's poison!"

Everyone stared in horror, since someone poisoned a child who was only a few months old?

County magistrate Zhang also showed surprise.

Hua Shengyan had a serious and kind expression: "I only found out later that it was a toxin. The toxin broke out on the way my son and his daughter-in-law were preparing to go to Beijing. They were mistaken for smallpox. He was indeed dying at that time. My son couldn't bear it." In the end, an old doctor saw the black birthmark on the back of his hand and concluded that it was poisoning, so he was able to detoxify."

Rong Mei looked at Old Doctor Wu eagerly: "Doctor Wu, didn't you say that the child died right then?"

Old doctor Wu was still swearing frankly just now, but now he believed what Hua Shengyan said, and for a moment he wondered if the original diagnosis was wrong.

He was sweating coldly and said, "I... I didn't look carefully either."

What else can magistrate Zhang say?He slapped the table: "That's enough, don't bother the court anymore, or you will be punished."

Hearing that it was time to beat the board, old doctor Wu got up quickly, carried the medicine box and ran away.

Lin Xi backed away from the crowd and quietly chased him out.

Hua Shengyan stood up and took the account book from them first. The land deed, house deed and land deed shop couldn't take it, so Rong Yu and Rong Qian stretched out their hands to take it.

Hua Shengyan knelt down holding some of the account books: "The women thank you two adults for upholding justice. These properties are in the hands of the women, and the women will not monopolize them. They will share part of them with the women of the concubine, so that the old man and sister Shi can enjoy their old age in peace. .”

Magistrate Zhang: "..."

Hua Sheng's words have already been said for this sake, so what reason does he have for not handing over the property to his direct descendants?Since ancient times, concubine girls have to separate from the master's house after they reach adulthood, which is reasonable and reasonable.

Rong Yu's face flushed red.

Rong Xichang was so angry that his feet trembled, as if he would fall down at any moment and die.

Rong Mei was also very angry, she didn't know that her appearance just now disrupted the good plan of her father and younger brother.

Before County Magistrate Zhang and Wang Zhaoyi were there, Nalanjing emptied the accounting room and left the Rong's house.

She wasn't afraid at all that they wouldn't give up the properties. Even if those properties weren't for business, the land deeds, land deeds, houses and shops in her hands would be a lot of money.

She wanted the ledger for the purpose of liquidating business transactions. When the time comes, those who can take over and those who can't will be cleared out directly. As for the losses, Rong's mansion is such a big house with so many people living there, who else can I look for?
