The Marquis of Zhenguo’s wife did not believe it and said sternly, “Since he’s not feeling unwell, why did he suddenly vomit blood and faint? It must be you, dog slave, who didn’t serve him well and was careless.”

Kong Qing was so frightened that she kowtowed. “First Madam, the Heir left the Precious Peace Temple early this morning. As you can see, he went to Old Madam’s residence previously to greet her. He was still fine then. After that, he even went to the Marquis’s study to pay his respects. He was fine when he came out of the Marquis’s study. On the way back to the Jiuzhao Pavilion, the Heir suddenly vomited blood and fainted. I don’t know what happened…’

The Marquis of Zhenguo’s wife recalled that when Mingzhao went to the Glorious Fortune Residence, he was indeed fine. “Has there been anything abnormal around the heir recently?”

Excluding the reason for Mingzhao’s health, the greatest possibility was that someone had secretly harmed him.

Kong Qing suddenly thought of the Eldest Miss of the Yu Residence— Yu Youyao!

The Heir had a pure heart and few desires. Ten years was like a day. The most abnormal thing about the Heir was probably his unusual treatment of Eldest Miss Yu.

Kong Qing lowered her head tightly, wondering if he should tell Madam about this.

But!

At the thought of that day on Chang An Street, after the Heir sent Eldest Miss

Yu off, he stared at him coldly. “If anyone asks, just say that you met Eldest

Miss Yu by chance!”

The Heir did not want anyone to know that he was too involved with Eldest Miss Yu.

But!

Under First Madam’s murderous gaze, Kong Qing was shocked and afraid. “First Madam, the heir, he, he…”

Just as he was about to tell the truth, he suddenly thought of the cat that the heir had saved when he was seven years old.

The reason why the Marquis knew about the existence of that cat was actually because he had leaked the information.

After the cat died, the heir did not question him.

However, not long after, his grandfather, Head Steward Yan, was slapped 20 times for offending the Heir.

The reason was that for a period of time, the Heir often went to the private library to borrow books and hid in the study to read secretly. He felt that something was amiss. The study of the Zhenguo Marquis Residence was huge. What kind of books did it not have?

Why did the Heir still go to the private library to borrow books?

What serious books could there be in a private library?

What kind of shameful book was it that he had to read secretly?

Kong Qing was worried that some messy books in the private library would mess up his temperament, so he secretly told his grandfather, Head Steward Yan, about this.

Her grandfather also knew the seriousness of this matter and immediately reported it to the Marquis.

The Marquis was furious and wanted to teach the heir a lesson.

The Heir took out the book he had borrowed from the private library. It was actually a short biography of King You. “Although it’s just a short biography, it records a lot of local customs and customs in Youzhou. It’s also quite relevant to King You’s merits. The tactical arrangements for every battle are also very exquisite. It’s a good book.”

After the Marquis read this short story, he actually agreed with the Heir.

After that, the Heir found his grandfather and denounced him. “I wonder how

Head Steward Yan found out that I was in a private library and slacking off?”

Naturally, it was impossible for his grandfather to expose him. He insisted that he had accidentally seen the heir enter and leave the private library time and time again.

After hearing this, the heir did not probe further. He only said calmly, “As the head steward of the Marquis Residence, you spied on your master privately and slandered him without knowing the reason. It’s disrespectful. You’ll be punished with 20 strokes of the paddle!”

It could be said that he had seen it by accident.

He had deliberately spied on him time and time again.

His grandfather had nothing to say.

The Marquis had also reported this matter because his grandfather had not discovered the truth. It had almost caused a conflict between father and son. He was extremely dissatisfied with his grandfather and did not stop the heir from punishing him.

At that time, he heard the dull sound of the board landing on his grandfather and was horrified.

However, the Heir’s expression was indifferent and cold. “How should you be punished for revealing my master’s private matters?!”

Kong Qing suddenly understood that this matter was clearly a trap set by the Heir to lure him in.

The Heir had come for him to begin with, and his grandfather had only been implicated by him and his punishment was meant to scare him.

Later on, he understood a principle: a slave can’t have two masters!

Seeing that Kong Qing was stuttering and did not answer for a long time, the Marquis of Zhen’s wife thought that he was thinking about her question. Even though she was a little anxious, she did not rush him.

Kong Qing suddenly clenched her fists and said with a trembling voice, “Madam, the Heir has been reading quietly in the Precious Peace Temple recently. The people he interacts with are all monks he’s familiar with in the

Precious Peace Temple. There’s no one unusual around him.”

The Marquis of Zhen’s wife was still worried and asked a few more questions. Seeing that Kong Qing indeed did not know anything, she knew that no matter how anxious she was, she could not get anything out of him, so she ordered someone to lock him up.

After interrogating a few more people, the Marquis’s wife returned to the inner room.

At this moment, Song Mingzhao had been unconscious for almost an hour.

There were many adults in the Zhenguo Marquis Residence, so there was no lack of small illnesses. The residence also had a residence doctor. Although his medical skills were not bad and could treat minor ailments, when he encountered a strong illness, he was useless.

At this moment, Song Mingzhao was lying on the bed half-dead. His breath seemed to be in his throat. Perhaps after he finished exhaling, he would explode…

Old Madam Song guarded Song Mingzhao’s bed and wiped her tears with a handkerchief. “Have you interrogated everyone?”

When the Marquis of Zhenguo’s wife saw her son lying silently on the bed, tears immediately rushed out of her eyes. She choked and said, “After the interrogation, Kong Qing said that Mingzhao has always been in good health and there was no one unusual around him. As soon as Mingzhao returned to the residence today, he went straight to greet you. The servants who were locked up only saw Mingzhao and did not come into contact with him at all. They did not have the chance to harm him…

His wife was smart and capable, and this concerned his son’s safety. How could he be careless?

Old Madam Song had an idea.

At the thought that it was Wan Hui’s birthday today, the Marquis of Zhen’s wife hesitated. “Eldest Miss Yu, Sixth Miss Qi, and Fifth Miss Tang are still in Third Miss’s Glazed Jade Courtyard. Should we ask…”

Old Madam Song’s expression darkened slightly as she reprimanded, “Are you so anxious that you’re muddle-headed? Not to mention that these three families are family friends with our family. They were born from our ancestors. They’re bound together for good or ill. They’re also half-grown children. Just now, they didn’t come into contact with Mingzhao in the Glorious Fortune Residence.”

Now that something had happened to her son, the Marquis’s wife was shocked and panicked. For a moment, she lost her composure. “Mingzhao is unconscious. I’m afraid Third Miss’s birthday…”

Old Madam Song sighed slightly. “Get someone to prepare lunch first. After lunch, send the guests back!”

In the Glazed Jade Courtyard, Song Wanhui was overjoyed when she found out that the birthday gift Yu Youyao had given her was made of lotus flowers that bloomed in the lotus lake. There were flower oil, flower essence, flower balm and a small box of lipstick..
