I made a fortune by marrying a sickly woman!

"Slander! Pure slander!"

Yuan Shangshu was so angry that he spat out a mouthful of blood. "Who is so wicked as to make up rumors about the officials of the imperial court? I will report them to the authorities. I must report them to the authorities and have them all arrested and thrown into jail."

I heard that the Yang family was in trouble.

Minister Yuan was waiting to see the joke.

As a result, the Yang family acted like despicable people and even made up obscene rumors.

The staff quickly advised: "Please calm down, sir."

"Am I still a human being if I can calm down after such a thing?" Minister Yuan walked out angrily, shouting loudly to the housekeeper.

The old butler came hurriedly.

Minister Yuan immediately ordered: "Send someone to the government office to report to the authorities. Ask the prefect to investigate who is behind this to spread rumors and slander the court officials!"

"This is the time I will go."

Just as the old butler was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by Minister Yuan.

Minister Yuan asked, "Is Doctor Zhuo still free?"

"My Lord, I have someone guarding the gate of Zhuo's mansion. Doctor Zhuo has been in the palace these days."

"Have you been in the palace all the time?" Minister Yuan immediately became suspicious.

He waved his hand to signal the old butler to leave, then went back to the study to discuss the matter with his staff.

The aide asked, "Did something happen in the palace? Could it be that His Majesty is ill?"

"I sent someone to invite Doctor Zhuo. Doctor Zhuo was on duty that night and did not leave the palace. The next day, I heard that something seemed to have happened in Changchun Palace. After that, no news came out of the palace. The current situation is not right."

Minister Yuan was keenly aware of something unusual.

Ask someone to continue to inquire, especially about things in the palace.

The Yuan family went to the government office to report to the authorities.

The prefect was troubled when he received this case. "This is a fight between gods, and innocent people are affected."

"Sir, do you want to investigate?" asked the chancellor.

The prefect took a deep breath and said calmly, "Let the governor investigate. Minister Yuan has already reported it to the authorities, so we can't just ignore it. But the Yuan family has been in a lot of trouble recently, so I guess they won't care about such a small matter."

"I understand. I will give the order right away."

The chancellor blinked, smiled and went out to look for someone.

If there really was a big fuss about arresting people for this matter, the prefect would not do such a thankless task. He would just send someone out to pretend to do the job and deal with it.

Not long after, officials from the government office went to various teahouses and taverns in the city to inquire. The appearance of the officials had a deterrent effect, and people outside became much more careful with their words for a while.

……

Cuihua Hutong.

Song Jin also knew what Minister Yuan did. "It's quite clever. This move should be able to quickly suppress the rumors."

"This is a scandal, and outsiders cannot verify its truth or falsehood. It's nothing if the Yuan family handles it properly." Qin Chi was looking at the information sent from various places.

Song Jin asked again: "Who is responsible for investigating the case where the Yuan family poisoned you?"

"The Dali Temple cooperated with the Jinyiwei in the investigation."

"What do you think we can find out?"

"Look at the reaction of the Yuan family. I know that the Yuan family has sent people to intercept him. That person will not make it to the capital alive." Qin Chi did not say that it would be more beneficial for the Yuan family if the person went to the capital for interrogation.

The testimony was originally given by the man under the influence of drugs, and he would have wanted to commit suicide as soon as he found an opportunity when he was awake. If he was sent to the capital, he would probably change his confession, and it would be easier for the Yuan family to escape punishment.

However, the Yuan family would not believe that he did not betray.

The most likely possibility is to send someone to silence the witness. Qin Chi has already sent someone to take a message to County Magistrate Yang in advance, warning him to keep an eye on the prisoner and be careful of the person behind the scenes trying to silence him. It would be best if he could take the opportunity to catch the thief and pull out the radish along with the mud, which might be another great achievement.

Qin Chi specially sent someone who was eloquent.

As long as you can fool County Magistrate Yang, it will be a good knife.

The people sent by the Yuan family to silence them could be powerful evidence to kill the Yuan family if handled properly.

"Sir, the housekeeper of the Yuan Mansion came to ask for a meeting, and said that he must see you. He didn't say it explicitly, but I saw someone following him, who looked like Doctor Zhuo."

Qin Ba came over to report.

Song Jin and Qin Chi looked at each other.

Qin Chi put down the tiger-head shoes that the baby was wearing and straightened his clothes and said, "I'll go see him."

"Husband, be careful." Song Jin knew that the visitor from Yuan Mansion would not bring any good news.

Qin Chi chuckled calmly, "Are you still worried about something happening in your own home?"

"You never go too far wrong."

Song Jin didn't quite agree with what he said.

Qin Chi said quickly: "Okay, listen to my wife, I will definitely talk to the other person three meters away."

These words were quickly slapped in the face.

When he went out to meet the guests, the housekeeper of the Yuan Mansion explained his purpose, "My master learned that Lord Qin was poisoned and almost got into trouble, so he specially asked Doctor Zhuo to come and take a look at you."

"The poison has been eliminated and the disease has been cured. Isn't it too late to invite the imperial physician to come now?" Qin Chi asked deliberately.

The butler of the Yuan Mansion remained polite, "My master can only rest assured if you check my pulse. This is not our Yuan Mansion's fault, but we have to take the blame. Hey, my master is kind-hearted. If he doesn't confirm that you are okay, he will be worried and can't even sleep well."

"Ha, so it turns out that it's because of me, Yuan Shangshu, that he can't sleep or eat well." Qin Chi smiled lightly, his breath was gentle, "I thought it was because of Yuan Shangshu who got drunk last time..."

"Cough cough."

The housekeeper of the Yuan residence kept coughing.

Qin Chi quickly showed concern.

The housekeeper of the Yuan Mansion shook his head repeatedly and said it was fine. He quickly looked at the imperial physician Zhuo who was standing beside him, and without waiting for Qin Chi to say anything, he bowed and said, "I'll trouble you, imperial physician Zhuo, to take care of Lord Qin's health."

Qin Chi can now be said to be a quasi-fourth-rank official.

He was fully qualified to reject the Yuan family's unreasonable demands, but unexpectedly he did not refuse. He sat on the chair and casually raised his wrist and placed it on the tea table beside him.

"Then I'll have to trouble Doctor Zhuo." Qin Chi said calmly.

This makes Yuan Mansion's housekeeper even more unpredictable.

Doctor Zhuo walked over and greeted Qin Chi first, then sat down carefully. The attendant beside him took out a small wrist pillow from the medicine box on his back at the right time.

Place the wrist pillow on Qin Chi's wrist.

Doctor Zhuo then stretched out two fingers and placed them on Qin Chi's pulse.

After finishing one wrist, switch to the other.

Anyone who has seen it knows that Imperial Doctor Zhuo is very careful when taking a person's pulse.

After a moment, he let go of her hand and said truthfully, "Lord Qin's pulse is soft and deep, so he must have been born with a weak condition. Fortunately, he has been treated by a famous doctor since he was a child. Not long ago, he did have a serious illness, and his body has not yet fully recovered. You should avoid overwork recently."

"Doctor Zhuo's reputation is well-deserved."

Qin Chi smiled politely and said, "People outside say you are a miracle doctor. There is no disease that cannot be cured when you treat it."

Doctor Zhuo quickly said modestly, "No, no, that's all lies. There is no real miracle doctor in the world. By the way, Sir Qin, do you need me to prescribe a prescription for you?"

"I couldn't ask for more." Qin Chi immediately responded happily.

When Doctor Zhuo saw his attitude, he immediately felt favorable towards him.

There are so many rumors about Qin Chi. Although he is young and holds a high position, he does not have the arrogance he should have.
