Chapter 966: Fire Outbreak
Lan. What else could possibly threaten herThinking about it, An Xuetang suddenly saw the red mark on Liu Lan's ear.All of us who have been through this kind of thing would know exactly what these trac...The emperor had his own calculations in mind, and Physician Ye also hoped that as Ruhua said, Ye Er could be cured by Tang Bai.
Thus, Imperial Physician Ye ultimately listened to the emperor and Huā Duǒr's advice and prepared to wait for a few days.
Now, even Tang Shenyi and Ye Er's whereabouts are unknown. Let's just wait then.
While An Xuetang had taken Ye Er out from the Ye Residence, she shook off the servants who were trailing behind.
She and Ning'er did not take Ye Er back to the Beijiang Palace, but instead arranged for him to be sent to a secluded courtyard.
Ye Er's body was truly weak, he had been tortured for years and there were many toxins in his body.
An Xuetang fed him a detoxifying pill from the Xuntang Valley and gave him some prescriptions to treat his body. She sent several people from Xuntang Valley to take care of him and protect him.
Things are pretty much settled, considering Ye Er is naturally a simpleton who plays dumb. There's nothing really to be done about her.
Ye Er's body wouldn't heal in just a few days. She believed that as long as the Ye family was gone and Ye Er no longer had to endure his tormenting wife, Mrs. Ye, his body would recover well and he would not die.
Before leaving, Ye Er stopped her, "Dr. An, was it...was it Xiao Qin who sent you to me So she knows that I was the one behind Ye Xiaoming's death"
She doesn't know.
An Xuetang looked at Ye Er thoughtfully, "She doesn't know anything. Even if she did, she wouldn't blame all the fault on you. You were the one who poisoned Ye Xiaoming that year, but Xiao Qin's stab wasn't something you asked her to do. She knows it in her heart. Even if she told everyone, she was also at fault in this matter."
Although she doesn't know Xiaoqin very well, through several interactions, she has gotten a sense of her character.
Apart from having a poor eye for people, her character is actually quite like that of Anle Hou, she's still a good person.
"I..."
Ye Er actually wanted to say if he could see Xiaoqin, but when he thought of his own body and situation, he swallowed it back down and smiled wryly.
Then, he stood up and knelt down before An Xuetang.
"...."
An Xuetang took a step back, her brows furrowed. "What is this"
“Ye Er will never forget the great kindness and grace bestowed upon him by Dr. Tang. In his current state, Ye Er has no way to repay Dr. Tang’s generosity. Today, Ye Er pledges that from now on, his life belongs to Dr. Tang. Whatever Dr. Tang needs him to do, even if it means sacrificing his own life, Ye Er will not refuse.”
After saying that, Ye Er kowtowed three times to An Xue Tang, each bow heavy.
An Xuetang could understand his feelings. She sighed softly, "I'm not doing this for nothing either. Just remember what you promised me, and take good care of yourself."
After saying that, An Xue Tang left with Ning'er without looking back.
Ye Er knelt for an unknown amount of time before finally getting up. He would remember Dr. Tang's kindness for the rest of his life.
If it weren't for her, he would never have had the chance to escape the clutches of that poisonous woman in his lifetime.
It was she who gave him a second chance at life.
As soon as An Xuetang returned to Jingtang Garden, she went straight to see Fengming.
Fèng míng was still unconscious. He lay quietly in bed.
After taking his pulse, it was completely different from yesterday's. Today, his pulse was perfectly calm.
From his pulse alone, you wouldn't be able to tell there was anything wrong with him.
But he just wouldn't wake up. An Xue Tang didn't know what was going on either.
She personally fed the medicine to Fengming, and then massaged his legs, hands, and feet. She didn't know how long he would be lying there, but she would do everything a plant person needs, at least to prevent his muscles from atrophying.
Ning'er watched from the side, but An Xue Tang didn't let her come over. She was afraid that if An Xue Tang had been busy all day and then continued to take care of Feng Ming, she would be too tired.
And since she couldn't dissuade An Xue Tang herself, she resorted to a rare trick. She looked at Kang Er and motioned for her to find the Northern Border King and urge him to return quickly.
Sure enough, Mo Yunjing was back after a short while.
An Xuetang glanced at him, curving her lips and saying, "A-Jing, you're here."
Her movements remained the same, still kneading Phoenix Ming's legs.
Mo Yunjing walked over and grabbed her hand, "Leave this to others, you just got back, rest first."
An Xuetang couldn't resist him, and eventually entrusted the massage to Shou'er.
She followed Mo Yunjing back to the room and took the initiative to tell him about Ye Er's situation.
She has made her preparations, tonight the Ye Residence will undergo a major upheaval, Dr. Ye and Madam Ye's lives are at an end.
She didn't intend to have the Cloud Army involved in this matter, but Mo Yunjing still instructed Shi Yi, asking him to bring a few guards to assist in finding the people of Tang Valley.
It is night.
The usually quiet Ye Residence suddenly caught fire, and the fire started in the bedroom of Doctor Ye and Mrs. Ye.
The fire spread too quickly and was very ferocious. The servants in the mansion wanted to put out the fire, but it burned so fiercely that they couldn't get close.
They tried every way to put out the fire and rushed inside. They saw that Dr. Ye and Mrs. Ye had already been burned to ashes.
Besides Dr. Ye and Mrs. Ye lying in bed, there was also a corpse in the room, and they soon recognized whose it was.
She was Mrs. Ye's niece from her mother's side, and she had always been by Mrs. Ye's side. Mrs. Ye treated her like a daughter, but she never expected that she would also be burned to death.
But the question arises: why would this girl be here at this late hour
The head of the Ye family and his wife died instantly, and the young master of the house was also not at home. Now the only one who can make decisions in the house is the steward.
The Ye family had few members and no branches. Ye's in-laws were not from the capital city. Even if they sent a message at top speed, it would take them at least ten days to arrive.
So the Ye residence was thrown into chaos, the servants who had lost their master were utterly bewildered.
Fortunately, the butler was somewhat rational. In the end, he still wanted to report it to the authorities. He didn't believe that the fire was an accident.
However, the Emperor learned about the fire at Dr. Ye's home and the deaths of Dr. Ye and his wife before anyone could report it to him. The Emperor was unsure what to think at first.
Doctor Ye was indeed his close friend. Over these years, he had done many things, some of which even the eunuchs who served him daily were unaware of, but Doctor Ye knew all about them.
Others might say that it was because Dr. Ye held a trump card over him, and that he had executed many people over the years. But Dr. Ye, he never moved against him.
But few know that when he was still an unfavored prince, he came close to death many times at the hands of others. Yet each time, it was Dr. Ye who saved him.
He was well aware that if it weren't for Imperial Physician Ye, there wouldn't be the Emperor he had today.
Therefore, Ye Taiyi and he are indeed good friends.
Upon hearing the sudden news of Ye Taiyi's death, he froze in place, utterly stunned and unable to process it.
The eunuchs around him were afraid something might happen to him and knelt before him, risking their lives. "Your Majesty, please protect yourself. A person dies and cannot be revived. I only now realize how saddened Your Majesty is for Dr. Ye. However, Dr. Ye probably wouldn't want to see Your Majesty so worried about him, harming Your health."
Once the eunuch with the red sash finished speaking, all present in the palace fell to their knees and bowed their heads. "Your Majesty," they chanted.
The emperor came to his senses and slammed his fist on the table, “Investigate! Thoroughly investigate! I order you to investigate this matter to the bottom. I refuse to believe this was an accident!”room', and when he came out, he had a knapsack on his back.Just as he was about to leave Jingtang Garden again, the mysterious man from before suddenly appeared and blocked Yun Si's path.Yun Si recogn...
