Chapter 767: The Master of Deception

s, swords together, invincible in the world! 。" The old woman slapped him on the head in anger, such a reckless boy, how could he be let out " 。As for Li Lao Si, he understood his nephew's feelings t..."This came out of nowhere. Wasn't it just said that the county princess had great fortune"

"It's said that he was frightened and hasn't been himself since."

"Startled What startled you Wasn't it that incident with the Gu family"

"Who knows, the countess is only ten years old, she's still a child. Her soul isn't stable, so it's possible she came into contact with something unclean..."

"Speak softly, you can't just say anything like that."

For a moment, everyone guessed all sorts of things.

Soon, Li Lao Er personally went to the palace to beg the emperor, asking for two imperial physicians to be sent to Suijin Beach.

The doctor did prescribe medicine, but it was just for warming and nourishing the body. He still didn't know how to treat the ailment.

Now, some people suspected something fishy was going on and kept quiet.

Because, a traditional Chinese physician wouldn't possibly tell lies, nor would they damage their own reputation!

At this point, other houses couldn't stay idle either and dispatched people to visit Suijin Beach.

The head of the Gu family felt deeply remorseful. If the county princess truly fell seriously ill because her maid's drowning had scared her, then the Gu family would be truly at fault.

After all, she was just a servant girl from the Gu family who was bought and used to plot against the county princess.

She brought a large pile of medicinal herbs to Suijin Beach and, upon seeing the county princess "seriously ill," her face turned very ugly.

I really wish I could find the two maids I sold and beat them to a pulp.

She repeatedly apologized to Li Laotai and Tao Hongying, then, with a heart full of remorse, followed Mrs. Wen to the next-door courtyard of the Wen family for a brief sit.

Mrs. Wen sent Qiong's girl to take Yueya away, then she held Dr. Gu's hand and spoke for a long time, mostly words of comfort.

"Don't worry too much, Your Highness. You are blessed with good fortune and will surely recover."

The village's renowned doctor is studying the prescription, and it's possible that in a few days, the county princess will recover.

Mrs. Wen poured tea for院長穀, but she did not tell her the truth about Jia Yin's pretending to be ill.

After all, a slave of the Gu family can be bought once, he can be bought twice.

If the Dean accidentally slips up, wouldn't that ruin Li family's arrangements

The Dean left after a short while, intending to go to the temple tomorrow to seek an amulet for safety.

If the county princess's ailment is due to fright, perhaps a talisman blessed by a high monk would be more effective than medicine.

Mrs. Wen couldn't stop him, so she could only give up.

No sooner had the Gu family's carriage left than Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Jia Er, and Mrs. Xing arrived together.

Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Jia both knew the truth, but what had been spreading throughout the city and countryside these days was too intense, causing them to be afraid as well.

So, come and see what's happened to Jia Yin.

As for Madam Xing, besides visiting the sick, she also wanted to see her daughter with a big belly.

After becoming pregnant, Wan'er could no longer move around freely. It had been over a month since she last visited her family home.

After some polite conversation, Xing's wife took her daughter back to the room to chat privately.

Mrs. Xing saw that the table was set with snacks, candied fruits, pickled plums, and all sorts of fresh fruit. She was very pleased.

No wonder she insisted on claiming this marriage early on. Her life as a married woman is truly excellent today.

"Where is Jiaren Has he been staying here these days" Mrs. Xing asked her son-in-law.

Wan'er's face flushed slightly, "He's been helping his father-in-law with some things in the city recently, and only comes back at night when it gets dark."

I feel so sorry for him, he's too tired. I wanted him to stay at the Earl's mansion, but he refused and insisted on coming back to see me before he could rest easy.

Mrs. Xing was even more pleased to hear this, this son-in-law truly had no faults.

"Well, a married couple should respect and love each other."

Mrs. Xing praised her and then, remembering the gravely ill princess, she added, "The family has been in low spirits lately because of the princess. Take care of yourself, don't cause any trouble at home, and help out where you can, understand"

"Understood, mother. Don't worry about it. Although the county princess seems serious now, she will be fine." Wan'er knew some of the details but couldn't tell her mother, so she could only say a few words.

Madam Xing clasped her hands together and whispered, "Please let the County Princess recover quickly!"

"The county princess is a good girl, and her family dotes on her so much. If something truly happened to her, life for them would be difficult. Just like when you have something happen, your mother can't live either."

Wan'er felt warmth in her heart, and she hugged her mother's arm, saying, "Mother, please rest assured. There are so many of us at home; we will definitely make sure nothing happens to my younger sister."

"I'm fine, Mother, don't worry. I will still be filial to you until the end of my life."

"Well, well." Mrs. Xing patted her daughter's back, "At times like this, Jiarren is probably also anxious and his words may come across as heavy-handed. Don't take it to heart."

"No, mother, don't worry." Juan quickly took the fruit and ate it with her mother, chatting about family matters and children, which was warm and comforting.

On the other side, in Li Lao Tai's room, both Liu Madam and Jia Er Madam knew the inside story, but they couldn't help but pat their chests and sigh with emotion.

Jia Erfu said, "What's wrong with the county princess's face It's so frightening!"

"Well, I have to laugh and cry at the same time," Mrs. Liu said. "Fortunately, I'm brave, or I almost would have screamed! It was just like an oil lamp running out of fuel!"

Tao Hongying handed them a jade gourd and smiled, "This little girl has been clever and mischievous since she was young. She's not good at anything else, but she's the best at deceiving people."

"Over the past few days, seven or eight doctors have come, but none of them found anything unusual."

Jia Erfu smiled and said, “Fortunately, I didn't let Baozhu come over. Otherwise, she would definitely have hugged the county princess and cried her heart out!”

Mrs. Liu also said, "Zhimin and Xiujie have sent people back from the academy to inquire about this matter."

Li Laotai then said, "Oh, that reminds me. Tomorrow, I still have to ask Lao San and the others to come back once, otherwise it wouldn't be right."

Everyone burst into laughter. Jia Er's wife coaxed Li Lao Tai, "Aunt, you are the most amazing. You have planned such a good play."

Mrs. Li sighed, "What can I do Who knows which scoundrel has built my little Fu up so high... "

"Whatever brings good fortune, whatever turns misfortune into blessing, this must be bad luck for my little Funi! I can only think of such a foolish scheme as pretending to be sick!"

"No, Aunt, you're mistaken," Mrs. Liu quickly soothed. "This method is excellent! Lately, no one in town has spoken of the County Princess having good fortune."

"That's good, that's good!" Li Laotai also let out a sigh of relief and whispered, "Now it depends on whether Lao Er and the others can find out who is behind this."

"Yes, Aunt, rest assured. My husband is also helping out. We'll surely have some news soon." Liu's wife said with a smile, then changed the subject.

Soon, Mrs. Xing and Wan'er arrived as well. Everyone chatted for a few more moments, then Mrs. Liu, Mrs. Jia Er, and Mrs. Xing took their leave.

Before Old Madam Li could send a letter to Luo An, in the afternoon, Li Lao San and Zhao Yu Ru returned with Li Ge'er. Guo Wen Hao also accompanied them.

It turns out that Guo Wenhao is now studying in Los Angeles. At noon, he had a meal with Li Ge'er and inquired about the county princess's illness.

Although Li Ge'er knew it was fake, he still remembered it and suggested that his third uncle and aunt come back and have a look together.

The Dean was also aware of the matter and readily approved two days of leave.

Guo Wenhao also took the opportunity to get two days off and came to Li's house with them.

Of course, the first thing everyone does when they enter is to go and visit Jiayin.elp! Master, help!"Old Madam Yan also began to climb out, but this was destined to disappoint them.More than ten people walked in from outside the hospital gate, and I didn't recognize any of them!But...
