Chapter 485 Helpless
Yan Wen was quite angry after hearing what happened to Jiang Ci.
"Then how could the emperor treat his own son like this? Erlang was still so young at that time. Even if the empress was really at fault, she should not be blamed on the young child. Instead, she would throw such a young child into the cold palace to fend for herself. It is really inhumane. ”
Those at the bottom had no chance to know the secrets of the royal family. They only heard that the current majesty was obsessed with cultivating immortality and immortality, and often disappeared from court for several days. The current internal and external troubles in the Sui Dynasty and the people's dire livelihood had a lot to do with the mediocrity and incompetence of the current majesty.
After hearing about Jiang Ci today, he didn't even have a good impression of the emperor.
Yan Shu said: "The Tian family is ruthless, and family ties become insignificant in the face of power. What's more, the emperor has many heirs. Even if one or two die, it will not affect the future inheritance."
Yan Wen said: "So Erlang wants to return to Beijing for revenge?"
Yan Shu nodded: "The former Queen's witchcraft case was framed, and the mastermind behind it was Your Majesty. He was afraid of the power of the Queen's mother's family, so he used this frame-up method to frame the Queen and the Feng family, causing the Queen to die in vain. The entire Feng family was killed, and A Ci was burdened with too much blood and hatred, so he must go back."
Yan Wen's eyes became determined: "I support his return to pay. Although I have no ability, I still want to contribute some modest help to you."
Yan Shu smiled at Yan Wen: "My eldest brother is proficient in carpentry and can make his own bows, arrows and crossbows. He is very talented in this area. A Ci has high hopes for my eldest brother."
Yan Wen said: "Since Erlang thinks highly of me, I must not let him down. It's getting late. I'm going to go to work. I may come back later today. You don't have to wait for me to eat tonight."
"The place where you work is in the suburbs. You can ride a horse from now on. If you still have time, go have breakfast first. After dinner, I will take you to the stable to choose a horse."
Yan Wen pondered in his heart. He had to rush back early in the evening to do farm work in the space. If he rode a horse to go to work and back, he could save an hour at least.
"it is good."
After a simple breakfast, Yan Shu took Yan Wen to the stables. Yan Wen learned to ride a horse on the way to escape, but his skills were still a bit rusty, so Yan Shu asked Wuming to choose a docile brown horse for him.
Yan Wen rode around the yard for a few times on horseback. After getting used to it, he led the horse out of the gate of Jiang Mansion.
Yan Huai then also went to the academy.
Yan Wu had nothing to do for the time being, so Yan Shu took him directly to the space and asked him to continue collecting food in the fields.
Not long after, Mrs. Wei came to the house to ask for an audience.
Yan Shu invited the people to the front hall, and the nanny Zhao, sister-in-law Li, and sister-in-law Qin who were waiting around were sent out, leaving only Mrs. Wei to talk alone.
"Ms. Wei, whatever I want to ask next, you have to tell me this way. This is related to your condition."
Mrs. Wei looked at Yan Shu with a puzzled look.
"What do you want to ask, madam?"
Yan Shu asked bluntly: "There should be a man by your side now, right?"
Mrs. Wei's face showed embarrassment. After hesitating for a moment, she relieved her embarrassment and said truthfully: "He was my man's best brother during his lifetime. Before my husband passed away, he asked him to take care of our orphans and widows. Initially, He did help us a lot, but three years ago he drank too much and broke into my house and took me... Afterwards, he threatened me not to report it to the government. If I dared to report it to the government, he would say it was me. He seduced me and made my reputation completely bad in the neighborhood. I have three children to support. Even if I don't want this face, I always have to consider the future of my children. So in the past three years, he has come to me every time he wants to have sex with me. When that happened, I could only obey him half-heartedly..."
Speaking of this unbearable experience, Mrs. Wei burst into tears.
Yan Shu frowned slightly. He thought that Mrs. Wei was a widow, so she couldn't bear the loneliness and found a man. This was understandable, but she didn't expect that she met a beast with a human face and an animal heart.
"Does he have a wife and children?"
"Yes, I also know his wife, and we have some contact with him on weekdays, but she still doesn't know about it. Even if she knows, it won't help. The relationship between the couple is not good, and they quarrel every now and then."
"Then does his wife show any signs of illness?"
Mrs. Wei was stunned for a moment, then thought of something and suddenly raised her head to look at Yan Shu.
"Strange to say, his wife's health is not in good shape either, and her condition is worse than mine. Could it be that he is the cause of our illness?"
Yan Shu nodded: "He had a heart disease and passed it on to you. He must be a man who often looks for flowers and has a very disorderly life."
Madam Wei's eyes were full of hatred: "This Lai Ruihai is a beast with a human face and a beast's heart. This man has always shown great love and justice in front of my man. Only then did my man trust us to entrust us to him, but he didn't want to invite the devil." Back home, my eldest son just turned fifteen this year. He saw that I was often bullied. He wanted to kill that beast many times, but how could I let my son fight for such a person? Every time we have sex I felt an unbearable pain in my lower abdomen, and I was afraid that if it disturbed his mood, he would beat me and the children again, so I kept enduring it."
Yan Shu said truthfully: "If you want to cure your disease, you must stop having sex with him. But I'm afraid he won't give up in this situation. There are only two ways in front of you, either you leave Xinyang Mansion and find a place to stay. Or find a way to make this person completely break up with you."
Madam Wei frowned tightly, her face full of despair.
"I understand Lai Ruihai's temperament. He is a domineering and paranoid person. As long as I am alive, he will not let me go. But where can I go with my three children after leaving Xinyang Mansion?"
Yan Shu didn't say anything. It's hard for an upright official to deal with household affairs, and it's not easy for her to meddle in other people's private affairs.
She asked Aunt Zhao to bring the Four Treasures of the Study, dipped her pen in ink and wrote down two prescriptions on the white paper.
"The first prescription is for oral administration, and the second prescription is for soaking in hot water and then taking a sitz bath. If you insist on taking these two prescriptions, you will be cured in less than a month. You still need to do your own things at home. The decision, whether to stay or go, is up to you.”
"Thank you ma'am."
Mrs. Wei took the prescription from Yan Shu, stood up and bowed to Yan Shu.
Just as she was about to leave, Sister-in-law Li ran over in a hurry.
"Ms. Wei, something is wrong. Your family, Heguang, injured Lai Ruihai. That man named Lai reported it to the officials and took Heguang to the government office!"
Mrs. Wei felt her vision go dark, her body shook and she was about to fall to the ground. Fortunately, Yan Shu had quick eyesight and quick hands and stood up in time to support her.
Yan Shu looked at Sister-in-law Li: "How is Lai's injury?"
"I heard that the lower body was seriously injured, and both legs are probably useless."
"Guang'er, my Guang'er, why can't you bear it any longer!" Mrs. Wei cried bitterly, feeling like her sky was about to collapse.
"Silly boy, if you are imprisoned for murder, the rest of your life will be really ruined. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, it's all my mother's fault, it's my fault for harming you in vain."
Yan Shu advised: "Mrs. Wei, crying can't solve the problem. The most important thing right now is to go to the Yamen to understand the specific situation. Aunt Zhao, tell Ah Fu to prepare the car, and we will take Mrs. Wei to the Yamen."
With something like this happening under his own eyes, Yan Shu couldn't sit back and ignore it.
Aunt Zhao hurriedly agreed and hurried down to make arrangements.
After a cup of tea, Yan Shu took Mrs. Wei and Sister-in-law Li on the carriage and headed towards the government office.
