Su Chengye didn't want to let Taoist Yuan go just like that, but he didn't want to refute his son's words.
He had been clamoring to change the crown prince, but in the end the child was not from the Su family, and he lost face in front of his son and daughter.
Hearing Su Yuanzhou say this, Su Chengye waved his hand and said, "You decide what to do with it."
As soon as he finished speaking, noisy voices were heard outside.
The old lady who got the news was pushed over, followed by the third master Su Chengxun and the third wife Hai.
"What's going on? What happened?" the old lady asked suspiciously.
They hurried over after the servants reported that there seemed to be a commotion in Aunt Zeng's yard.
The old lady saw that everyone in the hall looked solemn. Aunt Zeng was kneeling on the ground, and the wet nurse was holding the child beside her. There was also a Taoist priest hiding in the corner, as if he was trying his best to reduce his presence.
Seeing that Su Chengye had no intention of speaking, Su Qingyu stepped forward and began to explain to her grandmother and her third uncle and aunt.
Su Qingyu explained it in detail, even mentioning every word about Aunt Zeng saying that she wanted to kill that old thing.
Su Chengye, who was standing aside, followed Su Qingyu's words and recalled the scene just now, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
When she heard that even the child was this Taoist's, the old lady's head buzzed.
She was already very angry about the second wife's departure from Beijing. Now such a big thing happened again. She felt dizzy and fainted on the two-wheeled wooden chair.
Upon seeing this, everyone rushed over and the hall became a mess.
Su Yuanzhou ordered someone to call the court doctor, and told two maids to lock up Aunt Zeng and Taoist Yuan first.
Afterwards, the old lady was moved to a side room, and the court physician, Doctor Xu, arrived soon.
Su Chengye stood anxiously by the old lady's bed, feeling a strong sense of self-blame in his heart.
After taking the patient's pulse, Doctor Xu stood up with a serious expression.
Su Chengxun and the others stepped forward and asked anxiously, "How is it?"
Doctor Xu shook his head and said, "The old lady had a serious stroke last time. She has been restless for the past two days, and today she is angry again. I am not a good doctor, so I really don't have a good solution."
Su Chengxun turned to Su Qingyu and discussed, "Can we ask Mr. Zhou to come and help take a look again? He is a great doctor. He also helped treat your grandmother's stroke last time."
Of course Su Qingyu would not refuse, and hurriedly ordered the maid beside her, "Go after him quickly, Mr. Zhou should have just left not long ago."
The maid arrived in time, and when she chased out, Mr. Zhou's carriage had just left the mansion.
When Doctor Xu heard that Mr. Zhou was invited, he stayed by the side, wanting to hear what Mr. Zhou had to say.
Not long after, Mr. Zhou hurried in. He went straight to the bedside to check the old lady's pulse. After checking the pulse, he did not explain the condition, but took out a silver needle and started acupuncture.
These were acupuncture points on the head, and ordinary doctors would not dare to try them easily. But Mr. Zhou inserted the needles without hesitation.
Old Doctor Xu was watching in amazement. If the acupuncture points were slightly off, the person would die.
Mr. Zhou looked calm while giving acupuncture, but old Doctor Xu, who was watching, broke out in a cold sweat.
A quarter of an hour later, Mr. Zhou put away the silver needle, stood up and walked in front of the crowd.
Su Chengxun asked, "Sir, how is my mother? Is she okay?"
Su Chengye also walked over, without saying a word, waiting for Mr. Zhou to speak.
Mr. Zhou sighed and said, "Last time, the old lady recovered so well. It was already a blessing from God. The second onset of this disease is always more dangerous than the previous one."
"I can only do my best and prescribe a few prescriptions for you to drink. As for what the person will look like when he wakes up, it is still hard to say."
Su Yuanzhou signaled Mr. Zhou to just prescribe the medicine, and if the Su family didn't have any medicinal materials, they could go to Prince Ning's Mansion to get them.
While Mr. Zhou was writing the prescription, Su Chengye said loudly, "Someone, bring a stretcher."
The old lady could not recuperate in her aunt's courtyard and had to be carried back to Songhe Hall.
After the order was given, only the old lady and the maids around Hai responded.
Su Chengye then remembered that when he entered the door, there was no one in the entire yard.
He mistakenly thought that all the servants in the courtyard were helping Aunt Zeng to have an affair. He was already angry, and the thought made him even angrier.
"Where are the people? Where have they gone?" He stood in the corridor and shouted loudly.
Su Qingyu also followed and came out, telling Zhenzhu, "Go tell Jiang Qi to release all the people."
Su Chengye's expression froze at first, and then he realized belatedly that Su Qingyu had deliberately lured him here.
What she said about wanting to give honor to Sixth Brother and wanting to elevate Aunt Zeng was all lies.
He turned his head and looked at Su Qingyu angrily, "You evil creature, why can't you just tell me about this? You have to make such a fuss that your grandmother is almost killed before you are satisfied?"
He became angrier as he spoke, and raised his hand to hit Su Qingyu.
But before her hand could drop, Su Yuanzhou grabbed her wrist.
"Father, are you taking your anger out on Qingyu?"
Su Chengye didn't think he was taking his anger out on others. He shook off Su Yuanzhou's hand, pointed at Su Qingyu and asked, "Tell me yourself, are you the culprit? If anything happens to your grandmother, I will never forgive you."
These words made Su Qingyu laugh out loud, and she walked step by step to Su Chengye.
"The culprit? I think the real culprit in this family today is my father."
Su Chengye said coldly, "Don't talk nonsense. I'm your father. How can you talk like that?"
Su Qingyu glanced inside the room and saw Mr. Zhou writing a prescription.
Su Chengxun and Hai were asking Mr. Zhou about the medicine, while the other was guarding the old lady by the bed.
When the two heard the noise, they looked outside worriedly.
Su Qingyu turned her head and lowered her voice slightly.
“Father, think about it, after Grandfather passed away, have you ever taken on the burden of the Su family?”
"I won't talk about the court, not everyone is cut out to be an official. But what about at home? My mother supports me outside, and my mother earns the money. My father only favors his concubines, and he doesn't have good judgment of people, so I get cheated again and again."
"And your illegitimate sons and daughters, if you had raised them well, how could the first house have fallen to the state it is today?"
"And what grandma and second uncle have done over the years, if father had been able to persuade them, why would it have come to this?"
"Speaking of this matter, if I didn't bring you here to catch the adulterer, would you believe me? I did this to get this matter resolved once and for all. My family is so busy, do you think I am willing to take care of my mother's family's mess?"
"You are the heir of the Su family and the head of the family. But ask yourself, are you really a qualified head of the family?"
At the end of her speech, Su Qingyu raised her voice again and stopped calling him "Dad".
