  Dr. Xu slightly furrowed his brow, looked at the prescription in his hand, then glanced at Mrs. Xie behind the screen, and finally pursed his lips without speaking. Updated fastest

  Yang's wife saw this and worried, softly asking, "Mr. Xu, is there a problem with this prescription?"

  Dr. Xu shook his head and said, "The prescription is not the problem, the problem is Mrs. Xie. If I were to write a prescription, I would also write one like this, with only some minor changes in the auxiliary medicine, but actually the efficacy is almost the same."

  He furrowed his brow and said: "According to reason, after taking such medicine, madam shouldn't still be having so many dreams and a restless heart."

  If another doctor came for a follow-up examination, he might think it was due to Mrs. Xie's physical or emotional condition after all, there are many factors that can affect the efficacy of medication.

  Don't forget, Dr. Xu has been treating Mrs. Xie's body for a year, and every ten days she would ask him to take her pulse, so he is most familiar with her physical and mental condition, and also has some understanding of her character.

  Mrs. Xie was good at enduring, and it was just that in the few days after Second Master Xie's death, she was a bit crazy, otherwise how could she have yielded and let Eldest Master Xie off?

  It's not that there is no evidence at all. Even if Xie Yan personally erased the traces, Xie's wife and Yang's family would still be able to collect evidence.

  But then it would be a complete breakdown of relationships, Mrs. Xie, the Yangs and the Xies, even including the Lins, in the end none of them might turn out well.

  At first, Mrs. Xie endured everything for the sake of her natal family, but this time, even if she recalled the miserable state that Second Master Xie had brought back, it shouldn't have been so intense. Doctor Xu glanced at Lin Qingyuan and gave her a signal with his eyes.

  The two of them went outside to talk.

  Mrs. Xie frowned and sat up straight, asking, "What's going on that you still want to go out and talk? Is it because I'm not good enough?"

  Madam Yang hastily turned around the screen, supported her and smiled: "The lady thought too much, Doctor Xu said you are overthinking, so he wanted to instruct Young Madam on some matters, afraid of disturbing your rest, that's why he went out to say it."

  Outside the door, after making sure no one was eavesdropping, Dr. Xue said: "Miss, there are many things in this world that can affect a person's emotions. I think Mrs. Xie's emotional fluctuations are too great and have become somewhat abnormal."

  Although being sentimental is a reason, Mrs. Xie was originally able to bear it, and since her mood had calmed down a lot when she was in Suzhou, how could she become like this as soon as she returned to Yangzhou?

  Lin Qingwan's face was solemn and her eyes scanned the surroundings like lightning, causing the maidservants who met her gaze to lower their heads in fear.

  Lin Qingwan stepped inside and said to Mrs. Xie, "Mother, why don't you go sit with Erlang for a bit? This house hasn't been lived in for a long time and is a bit dirty, I'll get someone to clean it up for you."

  Mrs. Xie furrowed her brow, staring at Lin Qingyan for a moment before standing up with the help of Yang's hand, "Alright, I'll go take a look at the books left behind by my second son. Later, I'll leave some for you and bring the rest to the capital."

  Yang's nanny, who had been following her all the time, did not go with her, but instead handed over to two big girls beside Mrs. Xie, letting them take care of Mrs. Xie, and then returned to Lin Qingwan's side.

  "Bring everyone in the yard to the next room and lock them up, Yang. Call those who went to Suzhou back, and have them search me one by one," Lin Qingwan said coldly: "All of Madame's tea water, cups, bedding, clothes, etc. must be searched thoroughly."

  Yang's wife followed Mrs. Xie in the backyard for so many years, what she didn't understand was that they had taken a secret path.

  But now there's only one master in this mansion, who has the guts to be loyal to the capital?

  It's because they were all in the capital, and only the madam was the master here in Yangzhou. Also, Second Young Master was still alive back then!

  Thinking of this, Yang's heart ached as if being strangled. The lady had the Second Young Master, and with him, she could control the household with just a slight effort. But now that the Second Young Master was gone, everyone was rushing to curry favor with their new master.

  Her eyes were filled with hatred, and she immediately ordered someone to go to the front yard and bring in all the maidservants who had followed her to Suzhou. First, they took away the people in the courtyard, and only then did they start searching.

  Everyone brought by Mrs. Xie to Suzhou was her confidant. As they searched the main courtyard, they quickly startled the steward of the Xie estate.

  "What nonsense! Searching is a big taboo, who allowed you to act so arbitrarily?" The steward shouted at Yang's nurse, but the words were meant for Lin Qingwen sitting in the hall.

  Lin Qingwan sat in the front row, without even lifting an eyelid.

  Yang's wife didn't even look at her, and directly retorted, "What kind of search is this? If the housekeeper wants to wrong someone, she should find a more reliable excuse. It's just that our young mistress thinks this house hasn't been lived in for a long time, and every corner is very dirty, so we're cleaning it up. What, do you think the madam can't clean the house, or that the young mistress isn't being filial?"

  "Even the guards have been called in, what's going on here?" The steward was so angry that he flung his sleeves, "And another thing, where did all those servants in the courtyard go? If you didn't know any better, you'd think the Xie estate is being raided."

  "Madam Yang sneered repeatedly, 'The mistress has only been back for a few days and they're already getting their hands dirty. Two jade hairpins have gone missing in a row. At first, the mistress was busy with Second Young Master's memorial service and didn't have time to bother with it. Now she naturally wants to investigate clearly, lest outsiders say that the Xie estate is harboring thieves and scoundrels.'"

  The butler was furious and just as he was about to argue back, his eyes met Lin Qingwen's gaze.

  Lin Qingwan was staring at him with a thoughtful expression, her gaze made his heart skip a beat, and he involuntarily took a step back. When he came to his senses, the momentum on his body had dissipated by more than half, and he no longer had the mind to quarrel with Yang's wife.

  He could only force himself to put on a straight face and walk away with a flick of his sleeve, "Do as you please, but if Master finds out about this, it'll be another big blowup."

  He didn't relax until he reached the gate of the courtyard, where the chill on his back finally dissipated a bit. His face was somewhat pale, and all he could hope for was that no one would discover what he had brought with him.

  It's just that even if I investigate, I won't be able to find anything on him.

  Lin Qingwan gazed at his back with a cold intent, and Yang's nanny walked to her side and asked in a low voice, "Young Madam, what do you think of him..."

  "Where is the family of Guan's household?"

  "Except for his wife and son, both daughters are serving in the capital."

  Lin Qingwan nodded slightly, "Have someone keep a close eye on his wife and son, don't let them run away."

  "Yes!"

  Xu Daifu had someone dig out the dregs of the medicine and carefully examined them before saying, "The dregs are fine."

  Unless someone is putting poison in the medicine during delivery, then the problem must be somewhere else.

  Yang's nanny let out a sigh and said: "The medicine was personally brewed by Mrs. Jing, and personally brought over by her, but it passed through someone else's hands, that's where the problem lies."

  Peony's mother was a dowry servant of Lady Xie and could be trusted.

  Xu Daifu furrowed his brow and thought for a moment, saying: "After all, it's something the madam often comes into contact with. If it doesn't enter through the mouth, the medicinal effect will be limited, and if the time is short, there won't be any effect."

  Lin Qingwan bowed her head in contemplation, and Yang's mother also furrowed her brow in thought. The two suddenly opened their eyes and looked at the bed together, "Turn over everything on the bed to re-examine it again, including the incense used by the mistress, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone used for copying scriptures."

  Apart from sleeping, Mrs. Xie spent most of her time in the Buddhist hall, where incense was always burning; apart from this, there were only writing brushes and paper.

  It's too difficult to fake the technique in brush, ink, paper and inkstone. Xiang, Yang Nian and Xie Fu Ren are all masters of this field. If they can't detect it, then the incense must be priceless.

  Yang's wife couldn't believe that the first wife would be so capable.

  She strode quickly towards the bed, lifted up the quilt with one hand, picked up a pair of scissors and cut it open, pulling out all the cotton wool inside to inspect each piece.

  Then there was a sheet, an embroidered sachet hanging on the account, Xu Dafu frowned and stood aside, pinched something in the sachet, shook his head to indicate that it wasn't.

  Lin Qingwan stood in the distance, frowning and scanning the things on the bed, before asking after a while: "Where's the pillow?"

  Yang's eyes widened, and she flipped over on the bed before realizing that her pillow was gone. Her gaze swept coldly across the people in the room as she asked, "Who searched my bed just now?"

  Jin Xing stepped out, trembling: "It was me, I did it."

  "Where is the pillow?"

  Jin Xiang almost cried out loud, shaking her head: "I, I didn't know, I thought it was on the bed. I only checked up to the edge of the Duobao Pavilion."

  This area was all assigned to her, she searched from the outside in, and there were not a few things on the shelves of the treasure pavilion, mostly bottles, jars, and boxes, which had to be opened one by one for inspection, so it took some time.

  Lin Qingwan furrowed her brow and asked, "Are you alone? Is there no one to help you?"

  Jin Xiang's face turned slightly pale, and Yang hurriedly said: "Still not speaking quickly, if it is known but not reported, Madam has an accident, must ask you."

  Jin Xiang was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground, kowtowing and saying: "And there's also Road Huahua, she is in charge of the outer screen of Duobao Pavilion. Just now, it seemed like she came into the house."

  Yang hurriedly turned around and left, instructing the guards: "Go find Lu, be sure to bring both people and things back."

  "Yes!"

  Jin Xiang knelt on the ground, her body trembling with fear. Lin Qingwen stepped forward to help her up, saying: "It's okay, it wasn't you who did it, what are you afraid of? Go and search again, see if there's any problem elsewhere."

  Jin Xing's heart slightly calmed down, she wiped away her tears and replied in a low voice: "Yes, thank you, Young Mistress."

  The old lady stuffed the pillow under her clothes and quickly walked towards the northwest corner, where there was a small courtyard with a well inside. The well was very deep, and half of the water used by the family came from it. Once something fell into the well, it would be difficult to retrieve.

  "Old Mother Road!"

  The sudden sound scared Lu Jiaojiao so much that she almost fell to the ground, her pale face looking towards the front corner.

  Yang's aunt turned out of the corner with a slight gasp, her eyes fixed coldly on her waist and abdomen, asking, "The main courtyard is busy, what are you going to do?"

  "I," said Lu Jiaojiao, her hand slightly trembling, but a flattering smile spreading across her face: "It's not that my stomach doesn't feel well, so I want to go back and sneak in a nap, do you, Yang sister? I know this isn't right, just let me off this time, and I won't dare to do it again."

  Yang Ayi walked up to her, smiling: "So that's it, we're old sisters, how could I blame you? You also know that I'm quite skilled in massage techniques, why don't I give you a massage, maybe it'll get better."

  Lu's face turned pale and she shook her head, saying: "No, no need, I'll just go back to the outhouse for a bit. The mistress is busy right now, how could I possibly trouble sister?"

  "It's precisely because the mistress is busy that you need to be given a good scolding. There are many things to do in the house, and one person can't do everything. You can't let your stomach ache get in the way of important matters." With that, she had already approached Lu's nanny and grabbed her with one hand.
