Minglan is reborn, this time with no regrets!

The fourth room's student said, "Big brother, this matter has spread. Now people outside are saying that it was the Gu family who ruined someone's innocence and took his life. They are saying things as harshly as they can. Oh, I am going to lose face!"

The fifth room: "I recently had a fortune-teller tell me that our Gu family might be in trouble. Big brother, why don't you just do a good deed and let these people go?"

Gu Yankai had been shouting and killing in the mansion for more than half a month, but he had not found anything. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He also listened to the relatives around him trying to persuade him, and he felt anxious. Could it be that the whole family wanted to kill Erlang?

In the end, he gave up and simply sold the maids without further investigation.

However, the incident of Gu Tingye being poisoned became an unsolved case from then on. Gu Yankai was indeed worried that something might happen to him when he returned, so he simply let him stay in a house outside the mansion and wait until after the spring examination to decide everything.

……

……

Nanny Chang was brought back to the mansion by Changbai on behalf of Gu Tingye. The day she first arrived in Bian Jing, Gu Tingye was still lying on the bed and unable to get out of bed.

Seeing her suckling son covered in wounds, Nanny Chang cried bitterly. When she heard that Gu Tingye was poisoned and nearly died in the Marquis' Mansion, she was so heartbroken that she cursed and wanted to go to the Marquis' Mansion with a kitchen knife to kill someone, but was stopped by Shi Tou.

"Madame Chang..." Gu Tingye was both angry and amused and wanted to pull her.

"Young Master, don't move! Just lie down on the bed and don't move!" Nanny Chang cried and rushed to his bedside.

Gu Tingye took the kitchen knife from her hand, handed it to Shitou, and said, "Don't be angry. This poison was not given by anyone else, but by Shitou."

Nanny Chang suddenly stood up and looked at Shitou in disbelief: "It's you? How can you be a traitor! How can you harm your own son!" As she said that, she slapped Shitou.

Shitou didn't dare to fight back, and ran around the room holding his head: "Master, please finish your words! Madam Chang is going to beat me to death!"

"I'm going to hit you! I told you not to be a traitor and to poison the young master!" Nanny Chang wanted to find a stick.

Gu Tingye laughed for a while before saying, "I asked Shitou to do it."

Nanny Chang's slap landed right on Stone's face, making a crisp "pa" sound.

She turned around and looked at Gu Tingye, her face full of incredulity, and asked, "Sir, are you trying to help this guy get away with it?"

Gu Tingye: "I was the one who poisoned the stone, and what I ate wasn't really poison. Instead, the remaining medicine soup in the bowl was really full of poison. If I had eaten a bite of that, we would have been separated today."

Nanny Chang couldn't help but shout: "What the hell is going on!!!"

"The imperial physician my father invited is named Zhang, and he is my friend. Before Ming Dynasty... someone mentioned this person to me, saying that he is kind-hearted and has good medical skills, and is worth making friends with. Since then, I have been keeping an eye on him. By chance, I saw him being blackmailed, and I stepped in to settle the matter for him. As time went by, we became close friends regardless of age. The day before yesterday, I found out that my eldest brother had sent someone to follow me, and I thought I would not be able to escape a beating from my father, so I went to find this friend regardless of age and asked for a prescription that can make a person look like he is poisoned without damaging the root cause." Gu Tingye put his hands upside down and fanned himself on the back.

Nanny Chang quickly took the palm-leaf fan and fanned him gently, asking, "You need a prescription... what are you doing, young master?"

"Of course, we have to use a cruel trick." Gu Tingye winked at her.

"Didn't they say that many doctors came to your room that day? Wouldn't they have discovered this prescription?"

"This is the Zhang family's secret recipe passed down from generation to generation. It was originally used by the ladies in the palace to fight each other. Doctors outside would definitely not understand it." Gu Tingye was very confident in the "medical skills" of his friend regardless of age difference.

Nanny Chang still frowned: "But what if the Marquis didn't go to invite the imperial physician, or the one he invited was not this one, what would you do?"

"That depends on how much affection my father still has for me. If he is interested, seeing that so many doctors in my house can't cure my illness, he will definitely go to the Imperial Hospital to ask for help. Imperial Doctor Zhang happened to be on duty those two days, so there will be no problem. If he is not interested...ha, it's just that I have to vomit for a few more days, and then Shitou will 'accidentally' meet Doctor Zhang, and he will be invited in the end."

Madam Chang: "Sir, why are you doing this? Why are you resorting to such a dangerous method? If there is even a single mistake, there will be no recovery!"

"Oh, if I didn't do this, my upright father would still be trapped in the maze of my elder brother and stepmother, and would never be able to see my injustice clearly."

"What did they do to you?" Nanny Chang stopped fanning herself.

Gu Tingye sighed and gave her a general account of his experiences in the Gu Mansion over the past years.

Nanny Chang was silent for a long time after listening to this. Finally, she said, "They want to trap you to death so that they can seize your property!"

Gu Tingye laughed when he heard this: "What are you talking about, Madam Chang? What property can they steal from me? The title and property of the Marquis' Mansion were originally left by the ancestors of the Gu family. Even if they are inherited by my eldest brother one day, it is useless to kill me."

Nanny Chang shook her head and sneered: "Their Gu family's own property was squandered eight hundred years ago. What they are using now is my daughter's dowry!"

Gu Tingye said seriously: "Madam, what did you say?"

Nanny Chang endured and endured, sighed and sighed, and finally said: "Young Master, when I heard you say that the second wife of the Gu Mansion, Miss Qin, treated you kindly and loved you like her own son, I wanted to keep all these things to myself, and planned to take them with me after death. But now it seems that this Marquis' Mansion is still as cold and indifferent as it was before... Young Master, these are all the muddled accounts before the girl passed away. If you want to hear them, I will tell you. If you don't want to hear them, then just pretend that I have never said these words..."

Gu Tingye paused for a long time before saying, "I'll listen."

Nanny Chang fanned Gu Tingye while telling the story...

It turned out that many years ago, the Ningyuan Marquis Mansion in Tokyo City, like many nobles in the imperial court, borrowed a lot of silver from the national treasury.

Over the years, more and more money was borrowed from the national treasury, and the deficit gradually became huge. Until that year when the Yellow River was flooded, the Minister of Revenue cried in court and complained that he could not provide money for disaster relief. This finally angered the emperor, and he demanded that everyone repay the debt within a time limit.

The emperor of the time ruled the country with the principle of "benevolence" and always adhered to the creed of "no punishment for officials". As a result, all the civil and military officials in the court were lucky and lived in harmony with each other. No one was willing to pay his debts first.

Seeing that this was not going well, the Prime Minister took two mediocre noble families as an example to scare the monkeys. The emperor hated himself for being unable to help the trapped people, and after discussing with the Prime Minister, he directly issued an order to "execute the three clans and execute them immediately."

This was the heaviest punishment ever imposed by the emperor since he ascended the throne. The officials sitting on the high platform were so frightened that they all fell to the ground. Soon, each family paid back the money one after another.

But the Ningyuan Marquis Gu Mansion is difficult.
