Chapter 8 — On the Big Wedding Night, the Husband Hides Pregnant Bach Nguyet Quang in the Dowry Chest
“Brother Tu, that's not true.”
“I'm just too scared.”
“I just want to soften the lady's heart.”
"Using chicken blood to fake a miscarriage, let me take the blame for poisoning the pregnant woman."
“Is that called wanting to soften my heart?”
Luc Van Chu's voice lowered.
“The Liu family, falsifying blood evidence, falsely accused Mrs. Hou.”
“The crime increased by one level.”
Lieu Phu Am suddenly looked towards Bui Tu.
“Brother Tu, save me!”
Bui Tu's face was gloomy, but he didn't say a word. I thought this game would end here. But Doctor Ha suddenly picked up the poisonous green porcelain bowl and smelled it again. His expression became extremely strange.
“Luc Thieu Doan, Young Lady.”
“What is in this bowl is not an ordinary poison.”
I looked at him.
“What is it?”
Ha's forehead was covered in sweat.
"It's a blood-boosting medicine that breaks stasis."
“If a pregnant woman drinks it, just a slightly heavier dose will actually harm the fetus.”
The room once again fell into silence. I look at Lieu Phu Am.
“Chicken blood is fake.”
“But the medicine is real.”
"Lieu Phu Am, in order to slander me, do you even dare to bet on the child in your womb?"
Lieu Phu Am was limp on the soft tower, his face no longer had a trace of blood. But Doctor Ha's voice trembled and said one more sentence.
“This prescription... is very similar to the old medicine in the Marquis's pharmacy.”
“Moreover, the medicinal properties are still very new.”
“Maybe it's just today.”
“Today is beautiful.”
“It's also the old medicine from the Marquis pharmacy.”
As soon as those two sentences ended, the faces of everyone in Dong Noan Pavilion changed. The first person to speak was Bui Tu.
“No way.”
“How can the Marquis Pharmacy prepare such medicine?”
Doctor Ha knelt on the ground, not even daring to raise his head.
“Master Marquis, I only talk about medicinal properties.”
“In this medicine, there are rose flowers, oxtail and peach kernel.”
“Ordinary women with blood congestion can use it.”
“But pregnant women absolutely cannot touch it.”
I looked at Lieu Phu Am. She cowered on the soft tower, her hands still protecting her lower abdomen. There was a look of panic on his face. But the bottom of the eyes is not clean at all. I calmly spoke:
"If it's a medicine from the Houfu pharmacy, then check the register."
Old Lady Bui immediately said:
“Are the pharmacy records something you can look up if you want?”
I smiled.
“Have you forgotten, old lady?”
I held up the card in my hand. The copper card under the candlelight gently flashed a cold light.
“Now the management of the middle fund is in my hands.”
“The Marquis Pharmacy Department, I also have the right to investigate.”
Old Lady Bui's face immediately turned pale. Perhaps she didn't expect that the card that had just been thrown out not long ago would turn around so quickly and hit her right in the face. I looked at Butler Chu.
“Go to the pharmacy.”
"Bring back all of today's medicine export records, medicine residue and ash next to the medicine furnace."
Butler Chu responded continuously.
“Yes, Young Lady.”
Bui Tu's face darkened.
“Tham Thanh Vu, how long do you want to cause trouble?”
I looked straight at him.
"Once we find out who gave the pregnant woman the blood-boosting medicine, I won't cause trouble anymore."
“Or... Marquis doesn't want to know?”
Bui Tu was momentarily speechless. Lieu Phu Am immediately burst into tears.
“Brother Tu, don't drink that cup of tea.”
“I really don't drink.”
I turned my head to look at her ta.
“Just now you said you drank the sedative tea I gave you.”
“Now you say you never drank that cup of tea.”
“Miss Willow, it's just a cup of tea.”
“Did you drink or not?”
Lieu Phu Am's face immediately turned pale. Even Bui Tu turned to look at her. Her tears flowed more intensely.
“At that time, I was in so much pain that I was confused.”
“I... don't remember anymore.”
I nodded.
"No problem."
“The books will remember for you.”
Luc Van Chu ordered soldiers to closely guard Dong Noan citadel. No one is allowed in or out. Half an hour later, butler Chu led the pharmacy manager and two notebooks inside. The pharmacy manager's family is Trinh. As soon as he entered the door, he knelt down.
“The old slave pays his respects to Marquis, Old Madam, Young Madam.”
We sit at the round table.
"Who received the rose, the cow and the peach today?"
Manager Trinh's face trembled slightly.
“Young lady... those medicines are all commonly used medicinal herbs...”
“I ask, who received it?”
My voice is not loud. But the sweat on Manager Trinh's forehead was already flowing down. He opened the notebook, his finger stopped at a line.
"Dragon hour, engraving two, receive three points of red flowers, two points of ox tat, two points of peach people."
I continued asking: Manager Trinh's lips turned white.
“It's... it's Miss Huong Lan.”
Lieu Phu Am immediately shouted:
“Huong Lan!”
Huong Lan was escorted to the door, her eyes red. She raised her head, her voice hoarse.
“It was the lady who sent her servant to receive it.”
“The lady said... we have to make it a little more realistic.”
“The lady said that if she saw blood, Marquis would definitely be heartbroken.”
“People in the Marquis Palace will also force Young Lady to confess her crime.”
Lieu Phu Am frantically tried to sit up.
“You talk nonsense!”
Huong Lan cried and laughed bitterly.
“Miss.”
“The slave has hidden in the dowry chest instead.”
“Change someone and put on shoes next to the mouth of the well.”
“For someone to steal handkerchiefs.”
“Replace someone to pick up the medicine.”
“Now you only need one sentence, 'you're talking nonsense', and you want to push this slave to death?”
She suddenly turned to Bui Tu.
“Maquis…”
“The slave does not want to die.”
“The slave is the one who fetches the medicine.”
“But the lady said... this method was taught by Marquis himself!”
Bui Tu's face immediately changed.
“Insolent!”
Huong Lan was so scared that her whole body trembled. But she still cried and screamed.
“This slave is not impertinent!”
“The lady said that the Marquis is the one who understands the Young Lady's temperament the best.”
“Just say that the Young Lady poisoned the Marquis's heir, the Young Lady will never be able to raise her head again!”
The whole room immediately stirred. Bui Tu's eyes were almost fiery.
“I never said that!”
Lieu Phu Am immediately burst into tears.
“Huong Lan, why did you slander brother Tu like that?”
