Zhao Xun was locked in the courtyard of the guest room he had stayed in previously.
Even though the door was locked, Fang Rao didn't treat him harshly. Instead, she provided him with basic necessities.
However, Zhao Xun was ultimately too greedy and insatiable. Every day, he would only think about how to take everything that belonged to his uncle. However, the first trouble before him was none other than those servants of the Zhao Clan who meddled in other people's business.
Today, someone knocked on the door of the courtyard.
"Who is it?"
He asked impatiently.
After all, other than the people who delivered things to him, no one else would come.
He would never give these fellows who offended his superiors a good attitude, and they wouldn't court a rebuff either. At most, they would leave after placing the things down.
However, this time around, the knocking sounded especially persistent.
"If you knock again, scram for this young master! Even if I'm in dire straits, I'm still better than you dogs of a slave! "
He bellowed twice as if he was venting his anger.
The knocking stopped for a moment. After that, a slightly hoarse voice drifted in.
"Young Master Tang, this lowly one is here to deliver charcoal and a quilt to you. These things are heavy, this lowly one has to send them to your room. "
Zhao Xun really wanted the other party to scram.
However, the damn weather was too cold. He really couldn't lack these things to warm himself up.
After wrapping his clothes around himself, he could only open the door unwillingly.
"Young Master Tang, I'll have to trouble you to move aside. This lowly one will leave after sending them to you. I won't waste your time."
The manservant in front of him lowered his head and said politely.
Zhao Xun glared at the guard at the side and turned to enter the room.
Damn it!
If his father and the elders in the clan knew that the servants of the Zhao Clan dared to treat him like this, they would definitely think of ways to save him and get those fellows to kill them.
"Young Master Tang, Fourth Master sends his regards."
He was sitting at the table, sulking, when he heard the servant in charge of spreading the quilt for him say this in a low voice.
Just when he wanted to get up, that person quickly said, "Don't move first. If those people outside see something, it won't be good for you."
Zhao Xun forcefully suppressed his anxious emotions and stared outside, urging the other party.
"Where is Fourth Granduncle now? Why isn't he coming to save me? Back then, he wrote a letter urging me to come. Now that I'm in trouble, he can't just ignore me! "
"Young Master Tang, don't be anxious. Actually, Fourth Master is still thinking about you. It's just that something has happened to Fourth Master and he can't leave for now. "
When Zhao Xun heard this, he frowned.
"What happened to Fourth Great Uncle?"
"It's a long story. The Fourth Master asked me to come here for two reasons. Firstly, it's to find out about your situation. Secondly, he has a plan that requires your cooperation."
"Quickly speak!" Zhao Xun was already impatient.
The man laid out the bedding and hid in a corner where the two of them could not see. He shook his sleeve and a small dagger slid out.
"No matter what, you are the young master of the Zhao Family. Therefore, they only dared to trap you, but did not dare to kill you. If something happens to you, none of them will be able to escape. "
Zhao Xun's heart trembled. She couldn't help but berate angrily, "So fourth uncle's so-called plan is to push me to my death? Heh, he's not afraid that if my father and the elders of the clan pursue this matter, he won't be able to bear the consequences! "
That person also predicted Zhao Xun's reaction and hurriedly explained.
"Naturally, he doesn't want you to die for real. He just wants you to pretend. At that time, they will definitely be in a mess. Fourth Master has already made arrangements for the remaining matters. Please rest assured, Young Master Tang. "
The guards outside had already glanced over. The messenger knew that he couldn't stay here any longer and hurriedly left.
The door was closed. Zhao Xun sat in front of the table and finally no longer suppressed the heaviness on his face.
He stared at the bedding on the bed in a daze.
Earlier, he had personally seen that person hiding the dagger under his pillow.
He took a few steps over and secretly took out the dagger. The blade was sharp and one could tell that it was something that could take someone's life.
For a time, hesitation and determination kept on seething in his eyes.
Should he do it or not?
At this moment, someone sent him food.
Although those people didn't beat or scold him rudely, they definitely didn't place him in their eyes.
Moreover, the food was bland and tasted even worse than pig's food.
All the cold treatment caused him to make up his mind.
Ruthless emotions filled his heart.
Since they didn't let him have an easy time, then he would send them to hell!
He looked at the dagger and the corner of his mouth slowly curled up.
However, Lin Mengya didn't know what had happened to the Zhao Family at the foot of the mountain.
Now, all her energy was focused on "Elder Zhao's" illness.
After their people took control of the entire hot spring villa, she carefully searched the underground secret room and found a lot.
This place could be said to be a sinful processing plant.
Here, the young women who had lost their minds were constantly pregnant and giving birth. During this period, they had to endure the wanton abuse of those men.
As for Zhao Xun's lackeys, they had long been arrested and tortured by Yu's people.
Those bastards who were used to being superior and trampling on other people's dignity at will couldn't hide their secrets well.
And the things they vomited out were even more filthy and evil.
Even the guards who were in charge of interrogating them were infuriated and became even more ruthless.
Soon, the secrets of the entire Sinful Mountain Villa were laid out in front of the husband and wife.
"I really didn't expect that what happened to the Huo Family's little aunt had something to do with this place."
Lin Mengya looked at the confession and was much calmer now.
Long Tianhao rubbed his wife's forehead.
"Yes, Huo Yunsi's children must have been sent here as well."
In fact, not many people knew about this, but they found an account book in the villa.
It recorded whether each baby was alive or dead, when they were born, and when they were sent away.
There were even some records of selling babies and women.
Among them, she saw the name of the Fang family.
The Fang family started sending babies here about 20 years ago, but they were always one or two babies. For some reason, the price of the Fang family's babies was always ten times higher than the others.
Then, she thought of the signs of childbirth on Huo Yunsi's body, and her claim that the Fang family said that her children died when they were born.
Lin Mengya speculated that the Fang family might have given birth to Huo Yunsi every time.
"The Fang family is like a leech, attached to the Huo family and sucking their blood. What are they? They even formed an industrial chain. Aren't they afraid of being struck by lightning and dying a horrible death? "
The more she said, the angrier she became. In the end, Lin Mengya almost couldn't control her temper and slammed the table.
Long Tianhao hurriedly rubbed his wife's hands.
He understood his wife's feelings.
Even her heart.
As cold-hearted as he was, after seeing those things, his eyes almost turned red with anger.
Moreover, he was also a father and a husband.
If his wife and children were to be treated like this, he would probably be filled with hatred that could destroy the heavens and the earth.
She took a deep breath and continued to read the confession.
But this time, she focused on the information related to the change of body.
Other than Zhao Laosi, who had run away, Mr. Meng, who could read minds, was also missing.
Dong Zichang, on the other hand, was trapped in the small courtyard he used to live in.
But there were no more women for him to experiment on. Although he was a little dissatisfied, he still focused on his herbal medicine and medical books, as if everything that happened outside had nothing to do with him.
Lin Mengya didn't like this person at all.
But he was not like others, so she didn't care about him for the time being.
However, he did manage to find some information in his study.
This time, Dong Zichang reacted very strongly and refused to let his men take the things away.
Helplessly, his men could only report back.
"Just take it back after knocking him out."
Long Tianhao's attitude was very simple and rough.
But Lin Mengya stopped him.
"Let me go and have a look."
"No! What if that person has evil intentions and plots against you again? "
Long Tianhao objected to this.
Lin Mengya shook her head and said with certainty, "Although Dong Zichang lacks emotions, if you know his temper, there is no danger."
"Moreover, in terms of means, do you think I'm afraid of him?"
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and her eyes were full of confidence.
Perhaps Dong Zichang's means were strange and inexplicable, but compared to her excellent skills in poison and medicine, it was far from enough.
Although Long Tianhao had expressed his full trust in his wife, he still decided to stay by her side all the time.
When he arrived at the yard, Dong Zichang happened to be drying herbs in the yard.
Hearing the movement, he just raised his head and glanced at her. Finally, his eyes fell on the man sitting in the wheelchair.
"His injury is in the muscles and bones, not the flesh and skin. He has been disabled, so there is no need to use medicine."
Long Tianhao snorted and said with disdain, "There are so many quacks in the world. How can people like you understand the subtlety of the medical skills?"
Dong Zichang was not annoyed. Instead, he nodded in agreement.
"Yes, the medical skills are indeed exquisite. But your leg must be disabled. There is no prescription that can cure you in the medical books I have read. "
Long Tianhao's face darkened, "That's because you are too inexperienced."
"Maybe, but there are so many medical books in the world. Maybe there are really some that I haven't read."
Dong Zichang rubbed between his eyebrows and said in a calm tone.
But Lin Mengya saw a flash of enthusiasm in his eyes when he mentioned the words "medical books".
She patted her husband's shoulder.
This person did not have extra emotions. He was just a cold research machine.
Such a person lacked the ability to empathize. Perhaps his medical skills were really excellent, but it was difficult for him to become a good doctor in his life.
Long Tianhao naturally would not be angry with this person. In fact, he was not angry because he said that his leg was incurable.
It was just that in his heart, his wife's skills in poison were the best in the world. What did this guy know?
"I'm here to ask you something."
