The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 356

Chi Hongfang had a bad feeling. Although he did not ask Ye Wenyan why he wanted to investigate these things, since the deaths of the two generals were mentioned before, there must be some connection.

But the Jiang family in Xiushan County is Madam Ye’s family. Could it be that Madam Ye…

Chi Hongfang didn't dare to think further. The matter was of great importance. Once the problem was found out and the cause of death of the two generals was overturned, it would be a turmoil or even a disaster for Lin'an City and even the entire Northern Qi.

If the general dies tragically, the soldiers will be uneasy; if the general is wronged, the soldiers will be dissatisfied.

If there really is something hidden behind this matter, I'm afraid the army will be in chaos.

Chi Hongfang thought about these things and wanted to persuade Ye Wenyan not to make too much noise. Even if there was a hidden secret, could he keep it all in the general's mansion and not make it public, so as not to disrupt the morale of the army.

But thinking about it again, it seems that there is no need to consider so much. Ye Wenyan represents the Emperor. No matter what she does or how she does it, the Emperor is naturally behind her to support her. So even if the matter is made public and the army is in chaos, there is the Emperor to stabilize it. Why should a small prefect like him worry about this? Just do whatever the Fourth Miss tells you to do.

Chi Hongfang was relieved and nodded immediately in agreement: "I will immediately send someone to investigate, and it will be a secret investigation. At the same time, I will also find other reasons to retrieve the old files of Xiushan County. Don't worry, Miss Fourth, even if Xiushan County has its own provincial government, Lin'an is still Lin'an, and my official position is still half a head higher than theirs. But this matter may not be quick, Miss Fourth, don't be too anxious."

After coming out of the government office, Ye Wenyan refused Chi Hongyan's offer to send a carriage to take her there, and walked slowly on the street with Zhuier.

Zhuier had been frowning and thinking about things until the two of them walked to Shuntian Street. Then she couldn't hold it in any longer and asked Ye Wenyan: "Miss, is it really the old lady? Is the old master's death really related to the old lady?"

Ye Wenyan turned his head and asked her, "What do you think?"

Zhuier thought about it and shook her head: "We have been pouring medicine and food under the tree these days. Everyone in Fuluyuan should know that this is revenge on the old lady. It was the old lady who poured out the old master's medicine. It's just that I didn't serve in Fuluyuan at the time, so I really don't know much about the old master, but I know more about the eldest master."

She recalled as she spoke, and shook her head after thinking it over. "There is nothing unusual. The lady took care of him personally. The best doctor was hired, and he took the medicine normally..." She paused here, and said after a while, "There is just one thing that is puzzling. Miss, you know that the eldest master has always respected the old lady the most, and he listens to everything the old lady says. But when he was sick, the old lady came to see him once, but the eldest master did not let her in. He even shouted for her to leave and walked away, saying that he didn't have a mother like her. At that time, the old lady muttered that she was confused because of illness, and other people also thought that she was confused because of illness."

Ye Wenyan listened to Zhuier's words and figured out some logic after thinking about it.

Just as Zhuier said, the general always listened to the old lady the most, and judging from his obedience to the old lady for so many years, even to the point of sending a daughter to live with the old lady, it was impossible for him to let his mother come to the door to see him and be driven out by him. But he did it, which could only mean one thing, that he knew something, and these things overturned his three views and completely destroyed the image of his mother in his heart.

It's not that I'm sick, but I really don't want to see him.

In that case, the illness might have been caused in part by the old general's anger, or in part by the old lady's anger. So, the old lady not only angered her husband to death, but also her son to death?

Ye Wenyan thought of this and shook her head again. It couldn't be that simple. He was a great general, only 36 years old, not an old and seriously ill old man. How could he be so easily angered to death? "Why are you shaking your head, Miss?" Zhuier asked her in a low voice.

Ye Wenyan did not answer, but only told Zhuier: "We just need to know about this matter ourselves, don't alarm mother."

Zhuier nodded, "Miss, don't worry. Our problems are only between us. I will never tell anyone. But Miss, do we have to walk all the way back home? We have just reached Shuntian Street, but we still have a long way to go. It's past lunch time. Are you hungry? How about we eat outside? Just walk a little further and you will reach Baipinxiang. I know that the fried liver there is very tender."

Ye Wenyan had no doubts about this. After all, she was hungry too. Baipinxiang was now run by the Mu family again, and the former chef was also found back. She was the daughter of the Mu family, so it was normal for her to go there for a meal.

So the two of them ran towards Baipinxiang, but when they passed by a jewelry store, they saw a few familiar people.

Jiang Wanting and Chi Feifei also made an appointment to go shopping today. She had just picked out a pair of earrings and was discussing whether to buy three identical pairs and then give one pair to Ye Wenyan as a pair for sisters.

Jiang Wanting was furious when she mentioned Ye Wenyan. "That little girl has been so busy lately that she has no time to play with us. I must go to the general's mansion tomorrow to see if it was the wolves in their mansion who ate her."

Chi Feifei comforted her and said, "The capital has not been peaceful recently, and there are indeed many things going on in the general's mansion during the mourning period. How can the eldest lady be in a good mood after losing her husband suddenly? It's normal for Wen Yan not to come out to play. She should spend more time with her mother."

Ye Wenyan stopped walking in and raised her hand to press her forehead. "Damn Chi Feifei, how can I go to have dinner with you guys after you said that?" So she stepped back and hid herself in a corner, thinking that she might as well watch them for a while and then go back home quickly instead of going to Baipinxiang for dinner.

At this time, another acquaintance walked in. One was Li Yanran, the eldest daughter of the Li family. The other one also looked familiar. Who was she?

She leaned against the pillar and thought for a while, then she remembered. It was a young lady who always accompanied Li Yanran at the palace banquet on New Year's Eve. Her surname was... oh, Qian, and it seemed that her family was an official of the fourth or third rank?

As soon as the group entered, they heard Miss Qian say in a strangled voice: "Oh, who did I think it was? Isn't it Miss Jiang and Miss Chi? Why, you two are here to choose jewelry too! Tsk tsk, the jewelry on this floor is sold to ordinary people. The real rich families either go to the second or third floor, but no one chooses things on the first floor. Look at how shabby they look, are they poor?"

Chi Feifei rolled her eyes at that time, "Who was it I thought? It turned out to be Miss Qian Youyou, whose name is as good as hers! Yes, we are definitely not as wealthy as the Qian family. Miss Qian is so rich! Otherwise, your family wouldn't have given you such a flashy name. But I don't quite understand, how can Lord Qian, a fourth-rank official, have so much money? Does your Qian family have business outside or in the court? Do you think this matter needs to be investigated by our Lin'an Prefecture or the Ministry of Justice?"

"Shut up!" Qian Youyou was anxious. How could he bring up his family before he finished talking about the subject? "Chi Feifei, do you have any shame? We are just talking among ourselves, why are you bringing up your family? I am just kindly reminding you not to buy such shabby things. It will be embarrassing to wear them outside. Don't be ungrateful. Humph!" She said while pulling Li Yanran, "Yanran, let's go. We won't bother with them."

Li Yanran still walked with the grace of a lady from a noble family. Even though she hated Jiang Wanting and Chi Feifei in her heart, she still smiled and nodded as she passed by them. But the smile was so fake that Jiang Wanting felt annoyed at the first sight, so she said to her, "Is Miss Li's foot healed? I see that she can walk without any problem. I guess the Li family must have hired a master."

Chi Feifei laughed when she heard this, "What expert the Li family hired? What kind of expert can cure her injury? It was only when she got Wen Yan's medicine when the earth dragon turned over that she was able to recover. It's really true. Wen Yan's medicine is for the victims, not for someone like her who likes to stir up trouble. She had to dance on the tip of a knife to find fault with herself, not to mention she was bleeding, and she even snatched pills from the victims. The eldest lady of the Li family is really too promising."

Li Yanran was almost embarrassed by the ridicule from the two people, and she clenched her fists tightly in her sleeves.

But she didn't want to ruin her image by quarreling with them in the street. The incident on New Year's Eve and at the Li Family Clinic had already made her lose face. The most important thing now was to regain her face, not to lose it again.

So her eyes turned red, and she acted like she had been greatly wronged. She pulled Qian Youyou back a step, and persuaded Qian Youyou who was about to fight back, "Say less. It's all my fault. Let's just go!"

Qian Youyou couldn't stand seeing her like this, and she got angry at the time: "Why do you want to make Yanran angry? She is the niece of the Queen Mother. Where do you put the Queen Mother? Where do you put the royal family? I didn't expect that the Jiang and Chi families were so bold that they didn't even take the Queen Mother and the entire royal family seriously. I, I will definitely let my father report your family!"

Jiang Wanting and Chi Feifei looked at each other, and both were thinking the same thing: Has Qian Youyou grown a brain?

Yes, he has grown up now and realized that he should talk about the Empress Dowager and the royal family. This really left Jiang Wanting and Chi Feifei speechless.

Ye Wenyan shook her head, looking at Qian Youyou's smug look, and then at Li Yanran's red eyes due to grievance. She felt that if she didn't support her friend, Qian Youyou and the others would have the upper hand in this round of confrontation.

So she walked out of the corner and happily entered the jewelry store, saying to Zhuier as she walked, "Let's go directly to the third floor and pick out the best jewelry. Only the best are worthy of the Queen Mother." At this point, she suddenly stopped and looked at Jiang Wanting and Chi Feifei in surprise, "Hey, you got here first! Sorry I'm late, let's go upstairs."
