Thinking of this, he asked the wife of Rongchang Marquis, "Did she send medicine again?"
The wife of the Marquis of Rongchang seemed surprised by his question. She hummed and said, "Yes, it was sent again, but you can't use it..." She finally became emotional, as if she was very worried and impatient: "This is a harmful medicine. Wang Gongfeng said it is poison. It will accelerate the decay of your wound. If it gets worse, you may not be able to stand up in the future!"
She really wanted to do good for Marquis Rongchang, so she looked very serious and this expression could not deceive anyone.
Rongchang Hou smiled and held her wrist, then suddenly smiled and said, "Forget it, just use it."
The nanny next to her couldn't help but widen her eyes, thinking that she might have heard it wrong. She couldn't help feeling discouraged and disappointed. After laying the groundwork for so long, if there was no effect at all, then all the previous efforts would be in vain.
But if it doesn't work, not only will her husband and son be in danger, but she also doesn't know how much her life in the mansion will be affected.
The eldest lady had always disliked them. They were always at odds with each other on a daily basis. Now with such a quarrel, there was no way they would have a good life in the future.
Just as she was feeling discouraged, she heard Rongchang Hou say, "All of you get out."
The nanny glanced at the wife of Marquis Rongchang.
The wife of Marquis Rongchang nodded at her, and she left with the other servants.
When only the couple were left in the room, Rongchang Hou slowly said, "You've worked hard over the years. I've always known that my eldest sister is domineering and it's not easy for you... But I always remember how much she has done for me over the years, so I always feel sorry for her and favor her a little more."
As he spoke, the wife of Marquis Rongchang began to cry.
To be honest, although her family was not prominent and she did not live a life of luxury, she did not have to be so humble and look down on others at home.
After being married for so many years, she was really tired of seeing people's faces and Feng Shuyuan's cold face.
She hung her head and said nothing.
It's good as long as the goal is achieved. No matter how much you say, it will be bad if things go to the extreme.
Rongchang Hou said, "Let's continue to use this medicine."
Unexpectedly, Rongchang Marquis actually said such words. Rongchang Marquis's wife was startled, and then burst into tears: "You are pampering my elder sister like this, I am afraid that she will become more and more ignorant of her limits..."
"I'm not indulging her." Rongchang Hou gently stopped her, lowered his voice and sighed: "I'm doing this now for her good, for the good of this Hou Mansion. If I continue to take the medicine, my leg will not heal. If it doesn't heal, Wang Gongfeng will have to continue to come to see me. When he comes, he will know that Kong Gongfeng has been imprisoned, but I am still poisoned..."
Originally, Feng Shuyuan's intention was just to make his injuries worse and prevent them from healing. Before Wang Gongfeng came, she would naturally clean his wounds and prevent him from noticing anything.
But if Marquis Rongchang doesn't cooperate with her, then the poison she sends him now will be her own death warrant.
No one would doubt that Rongchang Hou himself knew the effect of the poison - Rongchang Hou actually used the poison and was left with serious sequelae, and there was even a risk that he might not be able to stand up in the future.
Unless he was crazy, he would go to such great lengths to frame a royal physician.
No matter what Feng Shuyuan said, as long as the Rongchang Marquis and his wife denied it, she would be just quibbling.
The wife of Marquis Rongchang quickly realized what her husband meant and called out "My Lord Marquis" in surprise. But when she saw his cold expression, she was stunned.
"Her appetite will only get bigger and bigger in the future, and her ambition will only grow bigger and bigger. Our Rongchang Marquis Mansion has only been restored not long ago, and we can't stand her tossing and turning like this again and again." Rongchang Marquis rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I have treated her well enough over the years, but she is just not satisfied."
Don't blame others.
The wife of Marquis Rongchang was somewhat delighted. She had not expected her husband to make such a drastic decision.
She had originally planned that if her husband did not agree, she would try her best to push Feng Shuyuan out.
However, she did not expect that Rongchang Hou made this decision himself. This undoubtedly saved her a lot of trouble, and she would not have any grudges with her husband because of this matter in the future. She almost felt relieved.
Rongchang Hou raised his eyebrows at her and said, "Among your subordinates, your nanny is the only one who knows about this?"
The wife of Rongchang Marquis understood and said, "Don't worry, I will tell the nanny not to reveal anything."
Rongchang Hou hummed, and then said: "Do as my sister said, apply the medicine for me, and then... go and invite Wang Gongfeng to come."
The nanny who had been waiting outside for a long time was about to give up. She pushed the door open when she heard the order. As soon as she entered the door, she heard the order to invite Wang Gongfeng after an hour. She couldn't help but look at the wife of Marquis Rongchang in surprise and doubt.
The wife of Marquis Rongchang nodded gently at her, and she felt relieved.
From the looks of it, the Madam should have persuaded the Marquis.
She followed the wife of Rongchang Marquis out and asked softly, "Miss, let's..."
She was very worried, but Rongchang Marquis's wife suddenly laughed: "Mammy, our hard days are coming to an end! The Marquis...he knows everything, he has agreed to it!"
She was so excited that her voice trembled a little: "You don't know, the Marquis said that from now on, all matters in the mansion will be decided by me, and he also said that the ancestral foundation cannot be destroyed by the eldest lady..."
She should have realized this earlier. Even if her husband didn't owe the loan shark, she still hoped that her daughter would be in power. The nanny also laughed happily: "This is really great. My daughter, you have endured for so many years, and finally you can get through it..."
Yes, I finally made it through.
The wife of the Marquis of Rongchang hurried back to her room and asked someone to go to the kitchen to order a few dishes. She then instructed the nanny, "I'll be gone for a while. Please keep an eye on the time. If the royal attendant comes, remember to call me. There are still many things to do."
No matter what, this is a big deal, and she won't feel at ease if she can't see it with her own eyes.
Nanny also knew what was on her mind, so she agreed and comforted her: "Don't worry, the Marquis has already made up his mind, how can he change it? As for the Marquis's injury... you don't have to worry, the Marquis knows his limits, and the King of Time has come, so it shouldn't be a big deal..."
No matter what, it is better to suffer pain for a moment than for a lifetime. Lady Rongchang Marquis certainly knew this truth. She responded heavily, watched the nanny put down the curtain and went out quietly, then she slowly sighed and closed her eyes.
She didn't expect that things would end up like this. She finally felt less overwhelmed and could sleep well.
