So satisfying! The Great Demon King wiped out everyone equally!

Fang's previously suppressed emotions erupted instantly. Like an enraged lioness, she charged at Lin Shuang'er, roaring as she charged: "It's all because of you! If it weren't for those terrible ideas you came up with, how could he have been poisoned and died? It's all because of you, all because of you!"

As she spoke, she waved her hands and slapped Lin Shuang'er's face hard, "slap slap slap," each slap delivered with all her might.

"You jinx! You killed my son, and now you're trying to harm my grandson!"

As Fang hit and cursed, the muscles in her face twisted with rage, and her eyes were bloodshot, as if they were about to spit fire.

Lin Shuang'er's head was buzzing from the sudden beating from Fang Shi, and the burning pain on her face left her momentarily stunned.

In an instant, hatred flashed in her eyes. Why? Why did she have to suffer this beating and scolding! But thinking of Fang Chengze beside her, she suppressed her anger.

She thought to herself: So what if Fang Yuhong is dead? As long as Chengze is here, she still has someone to rely on. Once this old woman dies, this general's mansion will eventually belong to her and her son.

Thinking this, Lin Shuang'er's body went limp, and she knelt down, feigning a heartbroken expression, crying out, "Madam, hit me if you want! Now that my cousin is dead and Chengze has been beaten like this, what... what's the point of my life!"

Fang was in the heat of the fight when she heard Lin Shuang'er's words. Her movements suddenly stopped, her vision went black, and her legs went weak. She stumbled back several steps and fell heavily onto the chair next to the table.

Seeing that Madam Fang had stopped attacking, Lin Shuang'er immediately threw herself onto Fang Yuhong and burst into tears: "Cousin, how could you leave Shuang'er all alone! It's all my fault for being useless and unable to protect our only son."

If anything happens to Chengze, I won't live anymore; I'll definitely go down to find you!

The crying was heart-wrenching, with tears and snot streaming down his face, as if he were truly heartbroken to the extreme.

Looking at Lin Shuang'er's appearance, Fang felt a strange sensation. Thinking that Lin Shuang'er was sincere towards her son, Fang's expression softened slightly, no longer as cold and hostile as before.

However, she still shouted sternly, "Crying, crying, all you do is cry! Do you think others can't hear you? Hurry up and come over here to drag Yu Hong behind the screen. The doctor will be here soon, and we don't want anyone to see us."

Lin Shuang'er quickly wiped away her tears, pretending to be timid and hesitant. She hurried forward and, together with Madam Fang, struggled to drag Fang Yuhong's body behind the screen.

Before long, Fang Yuwan arrived with a doctor.

As soon as the doctor entered the room, he saw Fang Chengze lying on the bed, his body mangled and bloodied. His brows furrowed instantly, and he gasped in shock, thinking, "Who could have done such a thing? His buttocks are all bruised and battered!"

"Waaaaah... Doctor, please save my grandson!"

The doctor nodded, then frowned and said, "It's a miracle that this child can hold on after being beaten like this. The injuries are too severe; he'll need to stay in bed for at least a month and will require careful recuperation."

Then, the doctor examined her carefully again.

Madam Fang quickly said, "Doctor, we must use the best wound medicine."

The doctor grunted in acknowledgment and began applying medicine to Fang Chengze, his technique skillful yet his brows furrowed.

After a short while, the medicine was applied, and the doctor instructed, "After the medicine is applied, you may have a fever tonight. I will prepare oral and topical medicines for you. Remember to take the oral medicine on time, and change the topical medicine regularly."

After giving detailed instructions, the doctor packed his medicine box and held out his hand, saying, "The consultation fee and medicine cost a total of ten taels of silver."

The room fell silent instantly; Fang Shi, Fang Yuwan, and Lin Shuang'er all tacitly remained silent.

The doctor's face gradually darkened, and he said angrily, "I've already written the prescription and applied the best wound medicine. Now you're telling me you have no money? Such a grand general's mansion can't even come up with a few taels of silver?"

Fang's eyes reddened, and she said through tears, "To be honest, my son has just passed away, and we really don't have any money left. But you can put it in the Yun family's account. She is my son's new wife, so just put it in her account."

Upon hearing this, the doctor snorted irritably, then turned and left the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, the doctor was stopped by Lian Qiao, who was waiting at the door, as soon as he stepped out of the courtyard. Lian Qiao said with a smile, "Doctor, please wait. Our lady invites you in."

The doctor had long heard that the general's mansion had a fiancée who had been granted the title of county princess. Seeing Lianqiao's demeanor, he dared not delay and hurriedly followed her.

Upon seeing Cang Lan, the doctor knelt down with a thud and kowtowed, saying, "This humble subject greets the County Princess. May I ask what business the County Princess has with this humble subject?"

Cang Lan remained calm and did not answer his question. She simply said softly, "Did you just examine a child?"

Although the doctor was completely bewildered, he still answered honestly, "Yes, Your Highness."

"Did Madam Fang ask you to put the accounts on the Yun family's tab?" Canglan asked again.

Upon hearing this, the doctor assumed that Canglan disagreed and was so frightened that he quickly kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "Your Highness, that was what Madam Fang said. I thought Your Highness agreed, after all, I also rely on this skill to make a living. I am really sorry for what I did!"

Lian Qiao snorted coldly and said, "My lady has long since divorced the Fang family's heir. How could she let you hold my young lady accountable?"

Upon hearing this, the doctor banged his head even harder: "It was my foolishness, I deserve to die!"

Cang Lan waved his hand and said, "Alright, I didn't come to you for these few taels of silver. To tell you the truth, the child you just examined is Fang Yuhong's illegitimate son."

The doctor was so shocked that his eyes widened and his body trembled like a leaf. He hurriedly said, "Your Highness, please tell me what you need!"

Cang Lan stared intently at the doctor and said, "I want you to spread this news: that a bastard has appeared in the Fang family, deliberately offending this county magistrate, and that Madam Fang is forcibly taking that bastard under my name to raise! Moreover, Madam Fang is very fond of this bastard. Remember, this news must be spread by you."

The doctor suddenly realized what was going on and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, Your Highness, rest assured, this humble subject will certainly do as you say!"

Canglan nodded in satisfaction and gestured to Lianqiao. Lianqiao took out a gold ingot and handed it to the doctor, who accepted it tremblingly.

Cang Lan continued, "This silver ingot isn't for your consultation fee. You can collect your debts from whoever you need to. This silver is a reward for your hard work. As long as you pass on the message well, you'll get your share of the benefits."

The doctor hurriedly stuffed the silver into his pocket, bowing and scraping as he said, "Yes, yes, yes, this humble servant will certainly take care of it, will certainly take care of it!"

The doctor thanked him profusely and left in a hurry.

Lian Qiao couldn't help but ask, "Princess, why did you let this doctor spread the news about Fang Yuhong's bastard child? Wouldn't it be more convenient to ask Granny Zhang to handle it, since she's been in the household for so many years?"

"Hmph, the Fang family deliberately avoided our Yun family's shops and found a doctor from another pharmacy, just so they wouldn't let the Yun family know about this."

Secondly, the word would be more convincing if it came from this doctor. When others hear of this, it will be unrelated to our Yun family; it's said by an unrelated doctor, so they will surely believe it without question.

As for Granny Zhang… although she works in this household, she's greedy for money. If we ask her to do this, and she offers too little, she might not be willing to do her best; if we offer too much, she'll inevitably demand an exorbitant amount. She might even try to manipulate us and cause more trouble.”

Lian Qiao suddenly realized, "The county princess is so thoughtful; I was just being foolish."
