Chapter 65 The Prefect's Conspiracy
Chapter 65 The Prefect's Conspiracy
"Mr. Shen, please come in. Fragrant tea has been prepared in the main courtyard." The Wen family's housekeeper respectfully invited Gu Yichen into the house, with a hint of hypocritical flattery in his tone.
Gu Yichen stood at the doorway, barely suppressing a sneer. Prefect Wen, just as the rumors had said, was blatantly attempting to exploit his fame and status. The master-servant alliance at this moment seemed like a carefully orchestrated drama. Despite his disdain, he wore a polite smile, masking his inner chill.
Mo Xian stood behind Gu Yichen, his expression calm but somewhat solemn. He approached Mo Dong and whispered, "Go immediately to the Shen family on the outskirts of the city and bring Lu Ling'er to the clinic. Tell them the boss has an urgent matter. Act quickly!"
Mo Dong's face darkened instantly, but he knew the situation was urgent and did not dare to delay, so he turned around and left immediately.
As Gu Yichen walked into the main hall, he pondered secretly. He had already guessed the intentions of Wen Zhifu and his family, and wondered when he would finally expose this group of people.
The main hall was magnificently decorated, but the lavish exterior couldn't conceal the conspiracy within. Behind the screen, Wen Min's face was savage, her pretty face slightly contorted with anger. She looked at Gu Yichen, her heart filled with jealousy and resentment towards Lu Linger, as if she couldn't wait to snatch him into her arms.
In front of the screen, Wen Renxin, the prefect, smiled broadly and said in a feigned cordiality, "Mr. Shen, you are indeed a man of great talent. Young people are the future of our Tianqi Dynasty. Come, sit down quickly. I was just about to discuss with Mr. Shen the situation of the poisoned patient in your clinic."
Gu Yichen raised his eyebrows slightly, sneering inwardly. It was ironic that Wen Renxin, the enemy who had nearly killed him, was now pretending to admire his talent. He bowed respectfully, "I don't deserve it. I wonder what advice the prefect has summoned me for."
Wen Renxin still maintained a false smile and slowly said, "I have always admired young people like you. However, I heard that a patient in your clinic was poisoned recently, and I would like to know the details."
Gu Yichen was respectful on the surface, but he sneered in his heart: "It seems that this face has really caused a lot of trouble. If it weren't for it, Wen Min and her father wouldn't have put so much effort into it."
At this moment, Wen Min in the inner room could no longer contain herself. She threw herself into her mother Chen Ruyun's arms, crying bitterly, "Mother, I want that man! It's that little village bitch who's standing in the way of my happiness! Mother, you must stand up for me!"
Chen Ruyun caressed her daughter's hair lovingly, a look of determination in her eyes: "Don't worry, my Min'er, mother will make your wish come true. I will never let you miss out on anything that mother didn't get."
After saying this, Chen Ruyun smiled slightly, a hint of coldness in her eyes. She called in Li Ma, an old servant who had been by her side for many years and had helped her with many shady deeds.
"Madame Li, this is top-grade Rouge Drunk. Put it in the new tea you brew for Shen Kang." Chen Ruyun whispered.
Nanny Li took the porcelain-white jade bottle without hesitation and replied softly, "Yes, ma'am." She was already accustomed to handling these shady matters for her master, and she left in a hurry without even raising her eyelids.
Chen Ruyun looked at her daughter lovingly and comforted her softly, "Min'er, the medicine will take effect soon, and you can go and realize your wish. Mother will arrange everything for you."
An excited smile appeared on Wen Min's face, and her eyes flashed with anticipation and malice: "Thank you, mother! But, what should my daughter do?"
Chen Ruyun gently tapped her forehead, a hint of reluctance in her eyes, but more of a fierceness. She took her daughter's hand and showed her the dowry she had worn when she was young. A moment later, Wen Min understood. Her pretty face gleamed with confidence and determination, her heart filled with fantasies about the future.
In the main hall, Gu Yichen feigned connivance with Prefect Wen while secretly observing every detail. He had long sensed something strange in the air: the Wen family's actions were overly hasty and irrational.
His eyes flickered slightly, and he had a plan in mind. Nanny Li walked into the hall carrying tea. Magistrate Wen, beaming, personally poured a cup for Gu Yichen: "Mr. Shen, come and try this new tea. It's specially prepared for you."
Gu Yichen's heart moved, and he suppressed his inner sneer and reached out to take the teacup. He knew that what was hidden in this cup of tea was probably not only the hypocrisy of Wen Zhifu, but also a hidden conspiracy.
