Chapter 705: What a Good Plan
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Liang Yulin had always liked to show off his grandchildren in North City, so he was naturally even more cocky now.
“Alright, if there’s a chance, this King will bring the two little ones to play with your children.”
He made an expression as if he was annoyed that his grandchildren were too smart.
It made everyone present gnash their teeth even more.
Why didn’t they realize that King Yi, who was like a banished immortal, had such a personality?
However, they had to admit that the Liang Family had really raised this pair of twins well.
Therefore, after the banquet ended and they returned home, the twins became the children of other families in Imperial City.
Those who did not interfere with their children could not help but ask their sons and grandchildren to quickly make babies. If they could give birth to such smart and cute grandchildren, they would personally raise them.
They were really envious.
Actually, it wasn’t just them. Even the Emperor in the palace was envious of the
twins.
The two little ones were bold but knew their limits. King Yi would often bring them into the palace, and then they would slap the dragon’s fart in various ways to make the dragon happy.
After all, the words of a child had no fear. The Emperor was naturally very happy to hear it.
Liang Yijia acted coquettishly and was particularly good at it. It made the Emperor feel the rare joy of an elder teasing and spoiling a junior.
The Empress Dowager also liked the two little ones. Every time they entered the palace, the Empress Dowager’s bedroom would be filled with laughter and joy.
Even the children of the Crown Prince’s family loved to play with the two little ones, even if they were two years older than them.
The two little ones would often bring some strange drawing books and toys into the palace, and they became the kings of the children in the palace. It could be said that the twins were the group’s favorite. Everyone liked them wherever they went.
Liang Yulin brought the two little ones back to the manor. When they saw their parents, the two of them began to talk about the bad old man they met today. Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo felt helpless too. They did not expect that the scumbag father wanted to kidnap the children.
Could it be that his legs were crippled and his brain was crippled as well?
Their children would definitely be protected by someone. How could they let someone kidnap them?
Besides, even if there was no one following them, it was still the High Duke’s Public House. Did he think that those servants would be blind if the scumbag father wanted to kidnap King Yi’s grandchildren?
Liang Yulin could tell that the two of them were helpless, so he said, “I think he is not in a good mood. Hanzheng, go to the prison and check his pulse when you are free.”
According to Xiao Yuanshi’s personality, no matter how angry he was, he would not dare to call his name directly and even say so many harsh words shamelessly.
At that time, when he saw the other party’s ferocious appearance, he kept feeling that something was wrong-
“As for when he’ll be released, you can decide,” he added.
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. “Okay!”
He only asked people to keep an eye on his scumbag father and the people from the Xiao Family. If someone secretly poisoned his scumbag father or something, they might not be discovered even if he did not act up.
The two little ones were tired after playing for a day, so Shi Qingluo brought them down to take a shower.
Liang Yulin and Xiao Hanzheng were chatting about the imperial court in the study.
The next day, Xiao Hanzheng was free and went to the prison.
Xiao Yuanshi was locked in a single room. His expression was ugly, and his eyes were even red as he sat in a wheelchair in a daze.
When he saw his eldest son coming to the cell, he looked up and stared at him. “Are you here to laugh at me?”
Xiao Hanzheng said with a straight face, “I just want to see how shameless you are. We have broken off our relationship a long time ago. What right do you have to take my children away?
At the mention of this, Xiao Yuanshi was extremely furious. He glared with bloodshot eyes and roared, “They’re still my grandchildren. What right do you have to make them change their surnames?”
Xiao Hanzheng also realized that his father was not in a good mood. “Because I am their father.”
Xiao Yuanshi was so angry that his chest was heaving up and down. “I’m still your father, you unfilial son. How can you let my bloodline die? How do you want me to face my ancestors in the future?”
Xiao Hanzheng thought it was funny. “You are the one who doesn’t want to die. What does it have to do with our ancestor? After all, you’re not the only descendant of the Xiao Family.”
He was too lazy to beat around the bush with his scumbag father, so he said bluntly, “Are you poisoned? Don’t you realize that something’s wrong with you?”
Xiao Yuanshi frowned. “What do you mean?”
Xiao Hanzheng walked up and squatted down. “You’ll know when I feel your pulse.”
Xiao Yuanshi knew that Xiao Hanzheng was a good doctor, so he did not resist when he felt his pulse with two fingers.
A moment later, Xiao Hanzheng took back his hand. “You are poisoned.”
Xiao Yuanshi was stunned. “I’m poisoned? How is this possible?”
“When I was in Nanxi County, I had people test my food for poison every day.” He didn’t really trust the Xiao Family.
Those people couldn’t be chased away no matter what. In addition, he didn’t have any relatives by his side. Sometimes, he was quite lonely by himself, so he let the people of the old Xiao Family stay in his courtyard.
However, he had always been very careful when it came to food and clothing.
Xiao Hanzheng said, “They used a counter-productive method to deal with you. They did not poison you directly.”
“For example, two or three of the dishes you ate today are counterproductive.”
“For example, the incense that you light is fine if you light it alone, but if you eat something for lunch or dinner, it might counter you.”
“I took your pulse. Your condition should have lasted for about a year.” “At first, you’ll be very irritable, and gradually, you’ll start to lose sleep.”
“Then, your temper became more and more irritable, and your brain will begin to function badly.”
“Your memory will also deteriorate. For example, you’ll forget where you put the things you put today tomorrow.”
“As time passes, you will become more and more irrational due to anger and frustration, until you become a complete lunatic.”
1ne lauy anu tne people [rom cne llrst nousenuu prooamy wouuun•c De ame to think of such a method.
It was most likely the idea of the third branch couple to secretly collect things that countered each other for his scumbag father to eat or use.
These people had become smarter. They knew that they were only stopping his scumbag father from inheriting, but their future titles and assets might not fall into their hands.
However, if they turned his scumbag father into a lunatic and his wife was in North City, everything in the Baron’s manor would naturally be decided by the old master and the old madam.
Outsiders would still think that the old Xiao Family was benevolent. Even if Baron Xiao had gone crazy, they still took care of him as before.
What a good plan.
When Xiao Yuanshi heard this, he could not help but become angry and irritable.
Xiao Hanzheng immediately took out a silver needle and pricked his head.
Only then did Xiao Yuanshi gradually calm down from his uncontrollable rage.
Then, he broke out in a cold sweat. He really didn’t expect that despite all his defenses, he still couldn’t defend against the people from the Xiao Family.
After he calmed down, his face was extremely gloomy. He gritted his teeth and said, “Good, they’re really good.”
The old Xiao Family had worn away his last bit of affection.
It was not that easy to kill him.
“Can you help me detoxify the poison?” he asked.
Xiao Hanzheng said, “I can remove some of them. But it has been too long, so I can’t remove the ones that you absorbed before.”
“But at least we discovered it earlier, so we can get rid of some of them. You won’t become a lunatic again.”
Of course, he had to help his scumbag father regain his clarity and calm so that he could go back and personally deal with the people of the Xiao Family.
The people of the Xiao Family were courting death. It seemed that his scumbag father would be able to take care of that family and not dirty his hands..
