Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

He is far from being as kind as he appears to be, and his ability to sophistry is also first-rate.

He said in a deep voice, "Since you don't admit it, I will throw the witness statement in your face. Come, bring all of Xie Qinglan's maids up here!"

A moment later, two maids were dragged in.

Xie Duanfang first gave them a cold warning, then pretended to be surprised and asked, "Suyun, Sucai, what did you two tell the commander?"

Su Yun replied tremblingly, "It was all the young lady's orders. She had me feed the young master crushed Xiaoyao pills, causing him to vomit blood and become ill. Then she lit warm incense and asked the commander to come over to check. When the time came, she pretended to be heartbroken and threw herself into his arms!"

Even though Tang Qizheng had already seen through the whole plan, he couldn't help but turn pale with anger at this moment.

Fortunately, his brother and sister-in-law were smart and helped him expose the conspiracy, otherwise, how could he have the face to see his son again?

He really hated Xie Qinglan!

After hearing these words, Xie Duanfang said expressionlessly: "Su Cai, you are so audacious! You actually dared to slander your young lady. Have you ignored my parents and brothers who are still in the mansion?"

Su Cai shuddered all over. She took care of her parents and brothers, but who would take care of her?

She was really afraid of the torture instruments in the death row cell. She didn't want to die so miserably.

She shouted loudly, "I am not slandering you. These are all facts. Moreover, the young lady even said in front of me and Suyun that she would consummate her marriage with the commander-in-chief by the young master's sickbed!"

Tang Qizheng didn't hesitate any longer and kicked Xie Qinglan hard.

"Bang!" She fell at Xie Duanfang's feet like a tattered sack.

Blood continued to flow out of her mouth. Her face was pale as she looked up at Xie Duanfang: "Father, save me!"

Xie Duanfang's cold eyes quickly shifted away. He pretended to be sad and said, "I never expected that the rebellious girl would be so bold and presumptuous. I am willing to choose another gentle and virtuous woman from my family to marry the young master and give birth to his heir. I hope the commander will approve it!"

Xie Qinglan never expected that she would be abandoned like this. She was the darling baby who was carefully cared for and raised by her father.

How could he be so cruel?

She forced herself to speak: "No, Dad, you can't do this to me. Even if you don't care about me, you should still care about Mom. Don't you love her the most? You even gave up the wealth of the capital for her!"

"Pa!" Xie Duanfang raised his hand and slapped her hard on the cheek, which made her face tilt to the side and her teeth spit out blood.

Tang Qizheng sneered, "So Patriarch Xie was once wealthy and powerful in the capital? I wonder what he did for a living?"

Xie Duanfang said awkwardly, "No, that's just nonsense from the rebellious girl. I was born and raised in Suzhou and have never been to the capital. Since the young master has a famous doctor to treat him, I will compensate the commander with 100,000 taels of silver and put an end to this matter, okay?"

Tang Qizheng couldn't help but frown: "My son's life is worth a mere 100,000 taels?"

Xie Duanfang gritted his teeth secretly, kowtowed deeply and said, "I am the humble one who made the decision. Please tell me the amount, Commander. I will do my best to meet it!"

Tang Qizhen turned his head to look at Tang Mingxuan lying weakly on the bed, with murderous intent surging in his eyes.

He said in a deep voice: "The Xie family must pay compensation of 300,000 taels of silver, plus Xie Qinglan's life. If anyone in the Xie family dares to refuse, their property will be confiscated and they will be exiled!"

Xie Duanfang was shocked. Three hundred thousand taels of silver!

This is not much different from confiscating a house!

Tang Qizhen is really asking for too much. He is really shameless!

After pondering for a long time, he slowly said, "The compensation the commander has proposed is simply beyond my reach. Xie Qinglan is the instigator of this crime, and I have no complaints about you taking her life. However, I simply cannot come up with three hundred thousand taels of silver. How about giving the commander a life-saving medicine made by the current imperial physician Lin? A life-saving pill?"

Before Tang Qizheng could say anything, Lin Yiwan sneered, "Brother Tang, see? The Xie family has another crime to add to their record. They've illegally manufactured counterfeit medicine, damaging the reputation of the emperor's number one physician!"

Xie Duanfang stared at her with a frown: "Who are you? How can you arbitrarily accuse me of a crime?"

Lin Yiwan slowly walked up to him, looked him down, and said, "My name is Lin Yiwan, and I'm the wife of the current Marquis Zhan Yi. I also have another identity: the granddaughter of the First Imperial Physician!"

After saying this, she stared at the changes in Xie Duanfang's eyes.

Unexpectedly, he looked a little confused.

This made Lin Yiwan vaguely suspicious. Could it be that he really wasn't a bitch? Otherwise, how could he be so calm?

Xie Duanfang also spoke immediately: "So she is the granddaughter of Doctor Lin. The life-saving pill in my hand was given to me by your mother herself. Oh, by the way, perhaps the commander doesn't know, but a good man from our Xie family was the son-in-law of the Lin family. It's a pity that the couple had a tragic fate and passed away early!"

After saying that, he reached out and wiped the two tears from the corners of his eyes.

Lin Yiwan's eyes were filled with murderous intent. This man was too cunning. How did he get the life-saving pill? Did he really think that there would be no evidence since he was dead and she would not be able to find out?

She tried her best to suppress her thoughts and turned to look at Tang Qizheng: "Brother Tang, since Patriarch Xie is so sincere, then let's take the life-saving pills. They are very beneficial to the young master's health. I can cure his serious illness!"

Tang Qizhen's face suddenly filled with joy. Nothing was more important than his son's life.

He nodded hurriedly: "Okay, I'll listen to you!"

Xie Duanfang actually carried a life-saving pill with him. He gave it to Lin Yiwan to verify its authenticity. After confirming that there was no problem, he said goodbye and left.

As for Xie Qinglan's dowry, he didn't want it anymore and just ordered people to take her body away.

Xie Qinglan was beaten to death, and he did it himself.

Even though the beauty standing next to him was crying her heart out, he did not stop.

Only after the beauty fainted from crying did he order her to be carried into the carriage.

As glorious as Xie Qinglan was when she entered the mansion, she was as miserable when she left. In the morning, she was still a beautiful bride with picturesque features.

But when she was carried out at night, there was no healthy flesh left on her body, and blood was everywhere, just like her wedding dress, frighteningly red.

Xie Duanfang hurried back to the mansion and went straight into the study.

He called his trusted butler in, and his tense emotions shattered in an instant. He raised his hand and swept all the cups and plates on the table to the ground.

"Master, what happened?" the trusted butler asked anxiously.

Xie Duanfang took a few quick breaths, and after a long time his scarlet eyes returned to normal.

He said in a hoarse voice: "Go buy a better coffin and bury Qinglan, right?"

The housekeeper asked in shock: "Is the eldest lady dead?"

Xie Duanfang clenched his fists and replied, "Yes, the plan failed. It was ruined by the Lin family who suddenly arrived from Beijing!"

The housekeeper couldn't help but gasp. He looked uneasily at the gloomy-faced head of the family, "Are the Lin family here to investigate that old incident from many years ago?"
