Chapter 485: Arrested in Prison
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Prime Minister Guo was in court. Today, there was a sudden flood in the south, and the court was in a haze. The officials did not even dare to breathe loudly, let alone the servant who wanted to inform his master.
Only the eunuch dared to ignore him.
As a result, the Wei family was the first to receive the news.
It was a letter from Fu Su.
“Matriarch, bad news! Somethinq happened to Younq Master and Master Guo!”
Matriarch Wei was tidying up Wei Xiyue’s calligraphy. When she heard this, she was very calm. “What can happen to the two of them?”
Matriarch Wei was never worried that something would happen to Wei Ting in the capital. If anything really happened, he would be the one harming others. However, today, he was with Guo Huan. Matriarch Wei believed that Guo Huan would definitely not let that young brat cause trouble.
As the saying went, one would be marked by one’s company. After a certain shameless pair of master and servant hung around each other for a long time, he became more and more dishonorable.
“Young Master Guo destroyed Emperor Taizu’s statue!”
Old Madam Wei said coldly, “I knew it! That kid only knows how to cause trouble for me… Wait, who did you say hit the statue?” Fu Su said, “Young Master Guo.”
Old Madam Wei was stunned. “Huan’er? How did he…
In Old Madam Wei’s eyes, Guo Huan had always been the most obedient child who would not make mistakes, unlike her grandchildren.
Old Madam Wei said, “Are you sure it wasn’t Little Seven who hit it? Did
Huan’er take the blame for him?”
Fu Su secretly gave her a thumbs-up. As expected of the Matriarch. She really understood her grandson’s character.
But he couldn’t say it.
“No! Young Master Guo really hit it!”
Emperor Taizu was the founding emperor of the Great Zhou. What would happen if one bumped into his statue?
If it was light, it would be a crime of disobeying the royal family. If it was serious, it would be considered treason.
Just as Matriarch Wei thought that the matter had become extremely serious, Fu Su gave her another heavy blow.
“But Old Madam, that’s not what I want to talk to you about.” Fu Su covered her heart. ‘Young Master was attacked.”
Old Madam Wei’s expression changed. “What did you say?” Fu Su looked pained. ‘Young Master… was attacked. The attacker is Guo Huan.” Old Madam Wei felt as if she had been struck by lightning…
At the entrance of the Dali Temple, the minister looked at the incredible incident that he had never dreamed of. He was stunned.
Emperor Taizu’s statue was destroyed.
The culprit was the Prime Minister’s legitimate son, Guo Huan.
The youngest son of the Wei family had been attacked.
The culprit was also the Prime Minister’s legitimate son, Guo Huan.
“Lo… Lord…” The official at the side stuttered in fear.
“What are you stuttering about? Capturing him! No! Save him first!”
It was an undeniable fact that the statue had been destroyed. No matter what, it could not be put back together.
However, Wei Ting was lying in a pool of blood… He did not seem to be completely dead.
The minister came to Wei Ting and squatted down to look at the dagger in the center. The shock in his eyes was gradually replaced by disappointment.
He held Wei Ting’s hand with a trembling hand. “Lord Wei, if you have any last words, just tell me.”
Wei Ting looked at him weakly. “I think… I might benefit from an emergency rescue?”
The minister was speechless.
Because Wei Ting emphasized that his injuries were too serious and only a physician from the Number One Hall could treat him, Physician Fu was invited.
Su Xiaoxiao wasn’t invited because she wasn’t around.
As her master, Physician Fu had also treated the Empress Dowager, no one doubted his medical skills.
Physician Fu sat on the stool in front of the bed and looked at Wei Ting with a
complicated expression. “Lord Wei, I’ve never lied in my life.”
Wei Ting said earnestly, “All men have to have their first time.”
In the end, Physician Fu did not lie. He only said, “Hurry up and send him to the Number One Hall.” Then, he left without looking back.
This was the limit of what Physician Fu could do.
The minister thought that he was going to be sent to the medical center for emergency treatment, so he hurriedly arranged for a carriage to send him off.
As for Guo Huan, he was naturally captured and brought to the Dali Temple.
He was the eldest grandson of the Prime Minister. If it were anyone else who had been stabbed, it might be a little difficult to arrest him. However, the victim was Wei Ting, the Wei family’s general who had risked his life for the commoners and bled for the country.
He had been stabbed at the entrance of the Dali Temple.
Even if the person who stabbed him was a prince, one had to capture him.
“How many times have I said that I didn’t do it? Wei Ting framed me! He’s totally fine! He’s in cahoots with the Number One Hall!”
Guo Huan was furious.
He had seen shameless people, but he had never seen anyone so shameless! Wei Ting’s arrogance and evilness were obvious. He was straightforward with everyone.
Generally speaking, such people were not good at scheming.
However, who would have thought that Wei Ting was even worse beneath the surface?
He was simply a guy with a stomach full of evil tricks!
Wei Ting’s schemes were directed at outsiders, and as one of their own, Guo Huan had never felt it before. Of course, he was caught off guard.
It was true that Wei Ting was a little lucky today. When he went downstairs to settle the bill, he saw the team moving the statues on the street. At that time, he had this plan.
This plan was considered a novice benefit because Guo Huan was not wary of him. Or rather, he did not think that he would mess with him so openly.
He was not scheming. He was purely shameless.
The minister said seriously, ‘Young Master Guo, you’d better surrender. I don’t want to hurt you! The Court will investigate the truth. Don’t resist!”
For some reason, Guo Huan was furious. He pulled out an official’s sword and slashed at them.
Something was wrong!
He had never been so impulsive in the past!
What was going on…
The minister of the Dali Temple wanted to capture him properly, but this guy openly attacked an official. He could not tolerate it.
With his order, everyone swarmed forward.
Guo Huan’s martial arts were not low, but for some reason, after slashing a few times, he suddenly seemed to have lost all his strength— The tea…
Wei Ting drugged him!
His movements became sluggish. An official took advantage of the situation and jumped up from behind him, knocking him out!
When Old Madam Wei brought Madam Chu to the Dali Temple, Guo Huan was already locked in a cell.
Old Madam Wei asked the minister what had happened, and the minister told her what he knew.
“I dare to guess that Young Master Guo stabbed Lord Wei first. When he fled in a panic, he accidentally destroyed Emperor Taizu’s statue… Young Master Guo resisted very fiercely. Fortunately, the officials of the Dali Temple did not neglect martial arts, so they took him down.”
“Young Master Guo has fainted. He won’t wake up for a while.”
“Lord Wei’s injuries were too serious. He has been sent to the Number One Hall for emergency treatment.”
Old Madam Wei and Madam Chu rushed to the Number One Hall.
Physician Fu and Wei Ting sat in the room and stared at each other.
“I won’t lie for your sake!”
Physician Fu had his own morals and ethics.
Manager Sun did not have such noble sentiments.
Manager Sun stopped Matriarch Wei and Madam Chu in the hall.
Old Madam Wei had been to the Number One Hall before. He knew her.
As for Madam Chu, although he had never seen her before, he could guess that she was definitely a woman from the Wei family.
“Why are you stopping me!” Matriarch Wei asked coldly.
No matter what, Wei Ting was her biological grandson. How could she not love him?
Manager Sun said bitterly, “I’m worried that you won’t be able to take the blow if you see it.. It’s too tragic… Lord Wei is really too pitiful…
