Chapter 351: Tan Family Movement
Housekeeper Lu didn't care and replied with a smile, "Oh, Your Majesty, please stop teasing me. Isn't it that the little princess gave everyone in the family a set of red clothes to wear, just to make it lively!"
Speaking of his eccentric daughter-in-law, Old Prince Zhuo was also full of smiles. He looked at the person in red, who looked exactly like the silly servant who followed him around in his childhood. "She's really good. Your old face looks a lot more handsome now. What new things has she come up with?"
Butler Lu handed over the letter and automatically ignored the first half of the sentence about himself. He looked at the old doctor over there, not knowing how to start the conversation, so he had to hand over the letter.
Shen Hua was amused. "Why? Is it related to an old man like me? Is she trying to get me to the free clinic again?"
It's not that he was unwilling, but there was an obvious difference between going on his own initiative and going under the influence of a trick. It was indeed a bit unpleasant to lose to that girl.
The old prince took the paper, his expression was surprised for a moment, then he showed deep sympathy, and handed it to the person opposite him.
Shen Hua took a look and found the expression quite interesting, with surprise, worry, dullness and disbelief, but no anger.
He was filled with emotions and didn't know how to vent them. He pointed at the handwriting on the letter and wanted to say something, but stopped. After a while, he couldn't help cursing, but his anger was directed at Old Zhuo Wang, "Look at your wife here, she always loves to cause trouble for me!"
"You are so thick-skinned that you dare to say such things. Your disciple has been my daughter-in-law for only half a year at most. Her father is not a good person. As the saying goes, a teacher is a father for life. If you don't teach her well, how can you raise her..."
There was no need to say everything. Those who should understand understood. Seeing his eyes widened, Old Zhuo Wang took a sip of tea with satisfaction, "This flower tea sent by your disciple is not bad..."
"You think this is a good thing?"
"At least it's not a big deal!" Old King Zhuo joked.
"This isn't a big deal!? Then what is a big deal?" His expression was full of disbelief. If it weren't for the graying hair and more wrinkles on his face, he would have looked a bit like Shen Si.
Shen Hua rolled his eyes, "It's really not a big deal. At least you should do it like your son does, letting your pregnant daughter-in-law take the lead in everything for him, doing surgery and inspecting. This is like raising a child without educating him..." After saying that, he also pretended to take a sip of tea like him, "This flower tea sent by your daughter-in-law is really good..."
Seeing that he was angry, Shen Hua calmed down. Butler Lu was also very interested in the contents of the paper. What did the princess say?
Gao Yong did not have this concern, he secretly picked up the paper on the table and started reading: The Lu family was born and built a mansion in Zhuocheng.
That's it? He couldn't help but ask, "Master Shen, who is the Lu family?"
"A bunch of cowards!"
"A family of miraculous doctors!"
Two voices came at the same time. Shen Hua glared at the old man angrily and said, "Look, I will kill you without leaving a single piece of armor!"
"Ha! I'll give you the original words!"
After a long time, the two men who were fighting to the death finally stopped. Before leaving, Gao Yong seemed to be saying to the old doctor, "I am old now, let the young people do whatever they want..."
Many people, like Gao Yong, were not clear about the origins of the Lu family, so this "heavyweight" news did not attract much attention.
But Shen Yu’s target was not these people. Since the mountain won’t move, then I will move it. The imperial physician family of the previous dynasty has come out, so how could others be far behind?
Not long after, another piece of news quietly spread in the city: It turns out that the plan against Prince Zhuo's Mansion was actually the work of Lord Tan? You ask him what the benefit is? Are you stupid? The wife and the legitimate son and daughter are all dead, can't he divorce his wife and marry someone else?
Zhuocheng, Yun family.
Tan Chengli paced back and forth. Having been a gentleman all his life, he had long lost his usual dignity. Looking at his elder brother who was still sitting at the top with a calm look on his face, his uneasy heart calmed down a little.
Tan Ming is still confused. His mother, eldest brother, eldest sister and second sister were all arrested for murdering Zhuo Wang's family?
The strangest thing is that after a few days, there was no trace of them, no news about them, and it was as if the four of them had disappeared. No one in Zhuocheng dared to mention them.
He did not attend the banquet that day. Usually, he would only attend occasions when his eldest brother was unwilling to attend, so he escaped the disaster.
I heard from the servants that the second sister stood up for him that day? She said that she and I were both pawns and substitutes of the eldest brother and the eldest sister! This is true, hasn't he always played this role?
While Tan Ming was still brainstorming, someone in the hall finally broke the silence.
"Brother! What should we do now? Whether they live or die, there must be a result! Why did you hide such a plan from me? I have already said that Princess Zhuo is not a simple person, why did sister-in-law and Zhao'er take the risk? In the end, Fuyao and Daixue were involved, brother, you..."
Tan Chengyi shot him a sharp look and he shut up. This was a habit he had since childhood. He was used to listening to his eldest brother's arrangements, but this arrangement was really unbelievable!
"I wonder what my cousin's husband is planning? Concubine Yun already knows that Madam Tan and her two nieces were taken away. This concerns the reputation of the entire Yun family's female family. As a branch of the Yun family in Zhuocheng, I, Yun Hao, have to ask about it."
Although he spoke politely, his leisurely and nonchalant attitude made Tan Chengyi frown slightly.
When Tan Chengli heard this, he wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by his eldest brother with a look!
Bah! Yun Hao usually acts high and mighty, as if it is so great that his family has a concubine named Yun. He always thinks of himself as a royal family member. It is fine that he privately says that the Tan family is a crude and vulgar warrior family. How long has it been since the incident happened? He is here to accuse them? Bah!
"I wonder what instructions Concubine Yun has for you? Madam loves her daughter dearly, and I believe that Concubine Yun will not stand by and watch her die for the sake of her sister. I really can't do anything..." Tan Cheng was as calm as usual, as if he was talking about an ordinary matter.
He was not worried about his wife's safety, and Zhao'er was not as harmless as he appeared. Prince Zhuo's Mansion might have hidden the person intentionally to make them anxious, so he had to stay calm.
I know what my eldest daughter originally planned, but Tan Daixue said that day. No matter what the result is, Fuyao's reputation will not be good. But if Concubine Yun supports her, maybe there is room for redemption...
So even though he knew Yun Hao had bad intentions this time, he had to humble himself and ask for help in disguise.
Yun Hao's eyes flashed with teasing, and he glanced at Tan Chengli who was irritated beside him, "Acting City Lord, there is no need to be modest. I also want to ask impulsively like your brother: What exactly do you want to do by putting on this show?"
Interrupting the person who wanted to argue, Yun Hao continued, "A young prince Zhuo who had nothing, for a small banquet, the Tan family lost a lady of the house, two legitimate sons and daughters, and the acting city lord... do you really want me to believe that there are no other plans? Concubine Yun also wants to ask, what kind of reward can make Lord Tan give up his wife and daughter?"
