บท 21: 21.Zhao family troubles
The servant was already on the floor wincing in pain, while her servants were hitting him with big sticks.
Suddenly a large number of servants came in and started beating up those servants. Doctor Zhao rushed over and bowed to see what is going on with the servant and saw that his head was already bleeding, but he was still alive.
He slowly stood up and stared at her, then at his grandson. ''Bring your mother and grandmother to the main hall. If they do not come they can pack their things and will go out together with this woman.''
He got pale. His grandfather was extremely furious this time. They suddenly both stopped as the servant on the floor tried to stop them and tell them something. Doctor Zhao went down and listened to his whispers and then patted his shoulders while nodding. ''I understand. Please rest now. Your wounds are bad. The young master will personally clean your wounds and prepare medicine until you heal completely. That is my decision and neither you nor he can deny it. Understood?''
They both nodded and he just turned around and rushed to the main hall. He sat down and asked his personal guard to bring the written message to miss Liu Mei. After he received the message he bowed and rushed out.
Doctor Zhao was sitting there with a straight back, when the two women rushed inside and saw his cold expression. They knew something bad happened. His wife was about to say something, but then he yelled. ''Bring the theatre crew out and pay them well. From today on no theatre group will be invited in without my permission, no singers, no storytellers, no strange people, nothing! That is my final order. Who crosses that order will be kicked out of the house if it's a family member and if its servant sells as a lowly labourer at the docs. Understood?!''
The two women became white. His wife staggered and everyone panicked, but he just smiled at her. ''Did you forget who I am? The famous doctor that even the Emperor wants. Your fake antics will not work on me. Sit down and shut up!''
In all these years she was always treated with kindness and respect by her husband. This is the first time seeing him go completely mad. She sat down and looked at him in fear. Yes, fear... His aura felt so murderous. Servants suddenly brought a bunch of servants in and bound up the young mistress.
His daughter in law rushed to help, her but suddenly he rose the whole kettle of tea and threw it at her head.
She was hit straight on and almost fainted, as the kettle was heavy. The blood sickled down her head and dripped on the floor, while she looked at him in fear.
''If you two listened to my words and took care that this lunatic didn't come out of her garden, nothing would have happened.'' He stared at her as he wanted to eat her alive, making her wince in fear.
His wife shook as he saw his murderous stare. '' Husband, what actually happened?''
He rose one of the eyebrows and smiled. ''You ask me? Who let this crazy woman out?''
Both women bowed their heads as they felt guilty. The father of the girl promised them many things and send many good items and theatre groups, that they loved to see, so they closed both eyes and let her out.
When he got a report from his guards he almost went rampant while the two women just sat there in fear. He looked at his daughter in law and waved his hand for his grandson to help her. The anxious young man didn't dare to help her before, as he feared that the situation might turn even worse.
He looked at the young woman and sneered. ''Open her mouth. I will tell her what will happen now.''
She lost all reasoning and fearlessly stared at him in anger. ''Great doctor Zhao.No matter what, I am your grandson's wife and future mistress. My father is a minister of trade and my grandmother is the real sister of her highness Dowager. It's not like you can do anything to me.''
He smiled and lowered his back to look clearly at her young face. ''Too bad, I do not care. Ye Heng, all these years I always closed my eyes to the stuff in the inner courtyard as nothing bad ever really happened. I already warned you and your wife. You have two choices. One is to divorce your wife and marry the one I choose. The other choice is you, your mother, your grandmother and your wife will leave the house and will be erased from the ancestry. You can still work as a doctor in my medicine hall and with that payment, you all can live nicely.''
He spoke calmly not even looking at the frozen people. This time his wife really fainted. He stood up and a with few moves, he woke her up, while pressing certain points on her body. He then went back to his seat and stared at his hands, while washing the hands furiously off, like he touched something uncanny.
She just sat there with a dazed expression and heard him talk again.
''All these years I never said one thing. You hated my concubines. I sent them away. You hated the previous daughter in law I let our son divorce her and let this fool marry him. You even let our grandson marry the stupidest person in this world, that is making me disgusted every day. You wanted plays, you had it. You wanted musicians, you had it. Clothes, jewellery, rare objects, I gave you all. I never cared about those small things, as long as you all could live well.'' They could see his face getting colder and colder.
''In that place I found the death rose. Luckily we found it in time or I wouldn't be able to forgive myself. Those two people were close friends to our dead son. You two had your hands in the play when they disappeared. I will have one question only and you better answer truly, or I will choose to kick you out regardless of Ye Heng's answer.'' His voice was monotonous and scary as it became deeper and deeper.
His wife shook. All these years she thought she could hide many things, but she was a fool. He was the master after all and probably had his eyes on her, but never did anything as no one ever got harmed. She questioningly stared at her daughter in law and this one started at Ye Heng's wife in fear.
''You...what have you done?'' She was afraid now, truly afraid. Looking at the arrogant demeanour of this girl, she regretted it, so much.
''Done? Nothing much. Those two dared to go against my wish. My brother liked that woman and wanted to grace her to become his concubine. But she denied it to him. So I let my brother in with a spare key and he just had his fun with her and discarded her. So what? Do lowly commoners think they can play with nobles as they wished? Trying to escape? They wished.'' Her words made even doctor Zhao feel sick.
''Go, send the message to the palace. Let the Emperor know, and Dowager as well. They should choose to do whatever they want to do with that information. Wu Kun... Get me her dowry list. Gather everything together. It doesn't matter if Ye Heng chooses to divorce her or not, this vile creature can't stay in this household any longer. And Wu Kun, where is the spare key of that garden? How comes she has it and I had no idea about such a thing?'' His cold eyes stared at the old state manager, that suddenly felt scared. He shook as he went on his knees.
''Master, I truly have no idea as well. I knew only about one key as well. I will find out and will report it back to you.'' He stood up and rushed out under his death glare and suddenly everything was still.
The hall was quiet as doctor Zhao Heng just slowly sipped, his almost cold tea, to calm his emotions.
The young woman's mouth was again stuffed again and all she could do is to struggle on the floor while looking at Ye Heng pleadingly.
