Farmer's wife: My husband came back and the house was in chaos

Chapter 546: Phantom Umbrella, the Truth about Ghosts and Gods

"Let me go! Why are you arresting me?" the doctor said while struggling.

"Why did you arrest Doctor Liang?" Master Wen looked at the scene in front of him, somewhat puzzled.

"Master Wen, to be honest, the young master's illness last night was not caused by excessive shock, but by someone drugging him. As a doctor in your mansion, how could he not be able to diagnose such a simple disease? So I suspected that this matter must be related to this doctor. So, after everyone went back last night, I asked my people to follow him, and they really found something unusual. Following the clues, they found the truth of all this."

"What! Doctor Liang, why did you drug the young master? You have been in our house for so many years, and I have never treated you unfairly. Even if I moved my whole family to the capital, I would bring you with me!"

"Master, I didn't do it. It's unfair. I am loyal to you and the Wen family. How could I do such a thing?" The doctor cried out in injustice.

"Yes, master, you can't conclude that we did it based on her few words!" the concubine also said.

"This... Master Qingran, do you have any evidence?"

"Of course! Look, what is this?"

"What is this? It looks like a medicinal herb?" Master Wen took a look and shook his head. Others also said they didn't know what it was.

"They don't know it, but as a doctor, you should know it, right? Tell everyone, what this is?" Yao Qingnian threw the thing in front of the doctor.

"These are just ordinary medicinal herbs. You are not a doctor, what do you know!" said the doctor angrily.

"Really? Master Wen, since he said it was just an ordinary herb, then we should give it to him. There shouldn't be any problem, right?"

"Medicine is poisonous to some extent. Why should I take medicine if I am not sick?"

"You also know that medicine is three-quarters poison? Then tell me, why did you put this medicine in everyone's food in the mansion?"

When Master Wen heard this, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Master Qingran, what kind of medicine is this?"

"This is a drug that can cause hallucinations without one's knowledge. It's called the Phantom Soul Umbrella. Taking this drug can cause mental problems and different symptoms, such as fear, excitement, or sadness. You can also see things you don't normally see. For example, a servant in your mansion recently said that he saw a white figure and that the young master was always talking to the air. Last night, the young master said that he saw a snake. All of this doesn't actually exist. It's just hallucinations caused by the drug that vary from person to person. Taking this drug multiple times can cause hallucinations, vomiting, or physical discomfort at the mildest, and can even cause death at the worst.

If this medicinal material is used properly, it can help seriously ill people relieve pain, but if used improperly it can harm people.

I heard that the young master in the mansion has the most serious illness. I guess someone wants to take this opportunity to do something to the young master!

When I discovered this problem yesterday, I didn't tell Master Wen right away because I didn't want to alert the enemy. What I gave the young master was not a reassurance pill, but an antidote." Yao Qingnian said softly.

"You're talking nonsense! Master, don't believe her nonsense. I don't have it! This is just an ordinary medicinal herb, not some phantom umbrella."

"The evidence is already conclusive, and you still refuse to admit it. I have no choice but to help you! Everyone watch carefully." Yao Qingnian divided the medicinal materials in half, asked Zhao Qi to go over, and stuffed the medicine into Doctor Liang's mouth.

"Get away! I don't want to eat! I don't have it!" Doctor Liang wanted to dig it out, but Zhao Qi held him down.

After a while, Dr. Liang began to have hallucinations. He looked terrified and kept shouting, "Go away, go away! There is a ghost!" He waved his hands in the air, but no one could see anything.

"So it was really him who did it! Why did you do this?!" Master Wen stepped forward and punched him in the face. Doctor Liang fell to the ground with fear in his eyes, while Aunt Meizhen stood aside with a pale face.

"Master, I didn't expect that Doctor Liang would be such a person. Let's kick him out! This is too terrible!" Aunt Meizhen said.

"Drive him out? Auntie is really merciful. He has harmed everyone in your mansion and the young master, and you just let it go like this? Could it be that you are in cahoots with him?"

"How could I be in cahoots with him? Please don't slander me!" Aunt Meizhen said guiltily.

"Then why are you so anxious? Your master hasn't said anything yet." Yao Qingnian said with a smile.

"Master, I...I don't have any."

"Master Qingran just said that there is an evil spirit in our house. What do you mean, aunt?" Master Wen looked a little unhappy.

"You'll have to ask your aunt about that." This was their family affair, and Yao Qingnian didn't want to say more.

Master Wen glared at his aunt: "Meizhen, can you tell me why this happened?"

"Master, I...how would I know!"

"Hmm? Are you going to tell me or not?" Master Wen pressed on.

"What do you want me to say? I know nothing! This was done by Doctor Liang. It has nothing to do with me." Aunt Meizhen took a few steps back and said tremblingly.

In the end, under the pressure of Master Wen, Aunt Meizhen finally told the truth. It turned out that after they moved to the capital, she found out that she was pregnant, so she wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of the young master without anyone knowing. At that time, her own child would be the only legitimate son or daughter in the mansion. But she didn't know how to start, so she found Doctor Liang. Doctor Liang and Aunt Meizhen also had an unusual relationship. In order to prevent people from finding out about the abnormality, she planned all this without anyone knowing, and quietly got rid of the person by saying that there was something unclean in the mansion.

The young master had taken medicine many times and his body had shown symptoms of poisoning. I had thought that I could get rid of them all at once in the next two days to avoid any more trouble. Unexpectedly, Yao Qingnian showed up and not only cured the poison but also brought them all out.

The matter was resolved. In the end, Master Wen spared Aunt Meizhen's life because she was pregnant, and he sent the doctor to the government for investigation.

Mr. and Mrs. Wen were extremely grateful to Yao Qingnian. They thanked him repeatedly and gave him a generous sum of money.

Master Jia Huo watched eagerly from the side, and then said, "Master Wen, although this matter was caused by your concubine and doctor, this house is indeed not clean."

"Jia Huo, have you forgotten our bet? Come on, kneel down and kowtow! I'm waiting!" Yao Qingnian looked at him with his arms folded.
