Chapter 666 Rumors
Chapter 666 Rumors
Yuan Shan and Tong Yunshu were completely stunned. In their minds, Doctor Ma was always a highly respected person. They had never seen him cry.
As Song Ying and others went to the capital, the Yuan and Song families came to visit them, and Doctor Ma revealed some of the events of that year.
So they both knew something about the Jiang family's affairs, but they never expected that the serious Doctor Ma would cry when he heard the news.
Doctor Ma's shoulders trembled slightly. At that moment, memories came flooding back like a tide, and those faces that had been deliberately forgotten came alive in his mind again.
The master tested their academic performance in the pharmacy; the maidservant beside the master's wife brought them sweet soup to relieve the heat, and went to the suburbs with her senior brothers and sisters to collect herbs.
The beautiful memories were soon covered by blood. The officers and soldiers broke into his house and took away the people he knew while cursing. He was pushed out by his master, who told him that he had nothing to do with the Jiang family and that he was just a beggar.
On the execution ground, familiar heads fell to the ground, revealing horrible, hideous fractures. Blood spurted out, and everything was a sea of blood...
Doctor Ma heard a buzzing sound in his ears and his vision went dark.
"Uncle Master! Uncle Master!"
"Doctor Ma!"
"Doctor Ma!"
The voices grew distant, and the faces near me blurred...
After a long while, his vision became clear again. Doctor Ma found himself sitting on a chair, surrounded by Song Ying and three others, all of whom had worry written all over their faces.
"It's okay," he forced a smile, "I'm just happy. The Jiang family has finally been cleared of all charges. Master didn't plot against the Queen. He was wrongly accused."
As he spoke, his voice began to tremble and tears began to flow uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes.
Song Ying held his hand and nodded solemnly: "Yes, Master was wronged, and everyone in the world knows it!"
After a long while, Doctor Ma finally recovered and began to ask about the details of the overturned case. Song Ying patiently recounted them one by one, especially how they had introduced the topic according to their plan at the flower viewing banquet that day, the expressions and reactions of Emperor Qianyuan, the Empress, the concubines, and the ladies, and how they had fought after the flower viewing banquet...
Doctor Ma listened, asking for more details, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Humph, he did this and he can't get away with it."
Song Ying nodded. "His reaction says it all. I'm sure many in the court understand. It's just that he's the emperor, so they can only pretend to be ignorant."
After a while, Doctor Ma felt much better. He cursed a few times and then let it go. He then asked about Song Ying's situation on the road.
Song Ying naturally would not tell him about the dark dealings of the grain transport soldiers and the chase he had endured all the way. He only talked about the interesting things that happened along the way and the special scenery.
As he was speaking, there was a rapid knock on the door outside.
"Clap clap clap!"
The door slammed loudly one after another, and then Luo Yanxing's loud voice was heard: "Song Ying! Song Ying! It's me! Open the door!"
Song Ying's eyes lit up, "Master, Yan Xing is here! I'll go open the door for her!"
Before he finished speaking, the man had already run out.
Doctor Ma smiled at what he saw. Only at times like this could he still see a little bit of the playful nature of a child in her.
Song Ying suddenly opened the door. Luo Yanxing, who was outside, was about to swing his arm to take a picture, but he was caught off guard and fell forward.
"Ouch!"
She hurriedly retracted her strength, and her white palm barely stopped half an inch in front of Song Ying's nose. The wind from the palm lifted a few strands of hair on her forehead.
Her eyes widened. "Emma, you just went to the capital. How come you walked without making any sound when you came back?"
Doctor Ma and the others in the room all had their mouths twitching. Song Ying was running so hard that the floor was pounding. How could he be asked to walk silently?
It was obviously her who was outside, banging the door so loudly!
"Ah, I missed you so much! I almost didn't see you!" Song Ying held her hand, overjoyed. "How are you? How's Tangtang?"
Luo Yanxing also smiled brightly, his eyes curved into crescents, "I missed you too! Tangtang is fine, I'm fine too, hey, wait!"
She suddenly stopped smiling, frowned, and turned angry. "What's going on? I heard Yuan Qing brought back a beautiful woman, and they even have a child!"
"You bullshit!"
Before Song Ying could speak, Yuan Shan rushed out of the room, her face flushed with anger, "My brother is not that kind of person!"
"Many people saw it with their own eyes," Luo Yanxing said, growing even more angry. "That woman was sitting comfortably in the carriage, with a maid holding a child beside her, while we, Song Ying, were left walking and eating dust!"
She grew angrier and angrier as she spoke. She clenched one fist and slammed it down on the palm of her other hand, rubbing her fists together. "Just wait, I'm going to go meet that heartless guy right now. He dared to betray my sister. If I don't beat him to a pulp, I'll write the word 'Luo' backwards!"
Song Ying: “…”
What is all this mess?
Yuan Shan was even more angry, "You...you...you are so vulgar!"
Luo Yanxing didn't bother to pay attention to her. Seeing that Song Ying didn't speak, he became even more worried. He took her hand and said earnestly: "Song Ying, you must remember what you said before. Men are nothing. If you lose someone, you can find another one. Don't let yourself be wronged."
Song Ying hurriedly shook his head and said, "This is nothing. Who spread this? How can you spread something without any basis?"
"The aunties and uncles outside are all talking about it." Luo Yanxing looked at her suspiciously, "Isn't this true? Don't feel embarrassed and help him hide it."
"I always only care about the inside." Song Ying said angrily, "We did bring back a sister."
"What!" Before she could finish, Luo Yanxing immediately raised his voice, "You still say you're not crazy, but you're already shouting like your sisters in the inner courtyard of the high family! Wake up, your mother only gave birth to you, no sisters!"
Song Ying: “…”
"This is a misunderstanding! She has nothing to do with Yuan Qing! She is..." Song Ying was a little stuck for a moment. She didn't want to let Dr. Ma, or most people, know that they had been in danger on the road.
But in this case, how do we explain why Yu Lingwan, Chu Dajiang and others followed them back?
She said bluntly, "In short, Sister Ling Wan has nothing to do with Yuan Qing! This is a long story, I'll tell you slowly tonight."
She turned around and said to Doctor Ma, "Master, we will go back today. We will send the earthenware offerings to you tomorrow after everything is settled."
After a pause, she looked a little embarrassed and said, "It's just that I ate all the Polygonum flower candy you've been talking about on the way."
Doctor Ma smiled and said, "Eat it if you want. As we age, we can't handle these sweet and greasy things."
He looked at the setting sun outside the window with a hint of melancholy. He was just missing the time when he used to buy Polygonum flower candy with his senior brothers and sisters.
