Chapter 994: Kang Rong's Death [4]

This one sentence shocked everyone present.

Everyone was stunned, furious, and cursing. Liang Zhi even drew his sword and shouted, "Killing someone's family line is unjust and unacceptable. Investigate this case thoroughly. All those involved must be brought to justice. Otherwise, the Liang Family Army will never allow this!"

"We common people won't agree to this!" Lin Mujia shouted. "Young Master Rong opened his own warehouse and donated grain to the country to fight the enemy. He's saving common people like us. We have received Young Master Rong's kindness, and we can't watch him suffer the injustice of his concubine and the extinction of his family line!"

The farmers and other porters didn't have Lin Mujia's eloquence, but they also cried out, "Master Rong, you've been wronged."

"Wow, wow, God is so blind. How could he let such a good young master, Master Yong, be harmed like this by a concubine?"

"It will take ten years of taking the medicine to detect the cause. This person poisoned Young Master Rong ten years ago. How old was he then? This concubine is too cruel!"

"No descendants! How could this concubine have such a cruel heart? If her son is killed and there is no descendants, won't she kill everyone in the Kang family?!"

"Hmph, if I don't make Young Master Yong infertile, how can my son be the head of the family?"

"This concubine is really unacceptable. A man should be honest, tighten his belt, don't sleep around, and live with one wife."

Ugh, untouchable thinking.

Throughout history, which capable man does not take concubines?

You lowly people say taking a concubine is bad because you can't afford it. Ha, if your daughter could become a concubine in our wealthy family, I'm afraid you would be so happy that you would open the ancestral hall to worship your ancestors and tell them the good news!

The noble officials and wealthy gentlemen were all cursing in their hearts.

Gu Chengyong had a concubine, and his beloved son, Gu Xuan, was born out of wedlock. He couldn't stand the words that belittled concubines and illegitimate children, and shouted, "Kang Rong, do you have evidence to prove that your concubine harmed you and made you infertile? If you don't have evidence, you are slandering me and must be investigated according to the law!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Mr. Kang, the Kang family members, Kang Liwen, and even Aunt Min's nephew Song Shi felt confident.

Song Shi even shouted, "Young Master Rong has been insane since he was a child. He often lies and slanders people in the mansion. He can't stand the fact that the illegitimate Third Young Master is more knowledgeable than him, so he has always targeted Concubine Min's family. The adults must stand up for Concubine Min and our Third Young Master. We can't let them be framed by Young Master Rong and have no way out!"

Kang Rong had already put on his clothes and came out from behind the curtains. Hearing this, he pointed at Song Shi and said, "You are just a servant, accusing the legitimate young master of slandering him. Come, drag him here and beat him to death!"

Beat to death?

Everyone was shocked.

Song Shi was fearless and pointed at Kang Rong and said, "You all saw this, Master Rong is so violent when he has a mad attack. All the servants in our house are afraid of him."

Unfortunately, this is not Kang Liwen's house, but outside, and no one will allow him to act tyrannically just because of Aunt Min.

Yan Zongqi shouted, "This evil slave is openly spreading rumors that the legitimate young master is insane. Come, drag him before Young Master Kang Rong and beat him to death with a stick to uphold the principles of propriety and hierarchy!"

"Yes." The soldiers under General Yan, the soldiers under Liang Zhi, and even General Liang's personal soldiers rushed over, grabbed the pine stone, and dragged it towards the grain mountain like a pig.

It was so ferocious and violent that everyone was shocked.

Song Shi was stunned and cried out, "I didn't spread rumors, you can't beat me to death... My lord, my lord, please save me!"

Dangdang Dangdang!

The gong sounded, and General Liang asked the doctors to speak: "Doctors, please tell me, is Kang Rong crazy?!"

Imperial Physician Qiu, Imperial Physician Xiaoyu, the civilian Doctor Guo, Military Physician Wei, and even the doctors from the Provincial Administration Office all said, "We only found that Young Master Kang Rong had taken an aphrodisiac, which prevented him from getting pregnant. We didn't find any signs of insanity."

"Young Master Kang Rong is not mentally ill, he is normal." Doctor Xiaoyu added another sentence for fear of misunderstanding.

General Liang sneered and looked at Song Shi: "Evil slave, do you hear that? Kang Rong is not insane, and you, a slave, spread rumors that the legitimate young master is insane. If not you, who should I beat to death?!"

After hearing this, the guards immediately grabbed Song Shi and beat him with a stick, leaving his skin and flesh exposed.

"Stop, don't hit me!" Liang Zhi shouted.

The guards stopped and looked at him.

General Liang also looked at him: "Erzhi, what's wrong?"

Are you calming down so quickly? Aren't you so angry that you want to kill this evil slave?

Liang Zhi said, "Being beaten to death is too easy for him. He is Aunt Min's nephew. Maybe his parents were also involved in giving Brother Yong the drug that will make him infertile. It would be better to castrate him in public and let him tell the truth. If he doesn't know, then we can castrate him first and then behead him."

hiss!

There were gasps from all around, Captain Liang, you are too cruel!

General Liang was also a little choked by his son... The Qin family is so terrifying, look at what they have taught his second son to be like?

They have all learned this dirty trick of castrating and then killing.

Kang Rong laughed and said, "Hahaha, this is a good idea. As the master of the Kang family, I officially order the castration of the evil slave Song Shi!"

General Liang said, "Let's do as Kang Rong says."

"Yes." The guards responded and immediately started to move. In the blink of an eye, Song Shi was naked. They called to the military doctor Wei, "Come and do it."

Then he said to Song Shi, "Don't worry, the Wei army doctor is an experienced one. He castrated many Western Rong people when he was in the northwest. He won't make you feel any pain."

Song Shi was so frightened that his face turned pale, his eyes widened, and cold sweat broke out...

"The sterilizing medicine was fed to Master Yong by the master himself. It has nothing to do with my aunt. Don't castrate me, don't castrate me!" Song Shi was under great fear, and his brain instinctively helped him make a decision that was beneficial to him. After he shouted this, he realized that he had let the cat out of the bag.

But it's too late.

General Liang immediately said, "Hold down Kang Liwen, stop the Kang family, and Captain Fan rushes to the city to seal off Kang Liwen's residence. No one is allowed to enter or leave without permission."

"The Wen family, the Jie family, the Zheng family, and other noble families, all of you shut up! If anyone dares to interfere with the confession of the accomplices, don't blame us, the Liang family army, for being rude!"

Yan Zongqi followed up with a shout: "Don't blame the court for being rude to you. Young Master Yong is a meritorious official who opened a private warehouse to donate grain to the country to fight the enemy. His injustice will be thoroughly investigated by the court, so everyone please be smart!"

The soldiers brought by Emperor Wuxing were indeed fierce and violent.

But it worked. All the noble family masters stationed in the Northeast State kept their mouths shut and did not dare to threaten Song Shi to change his confession in a subtle way.

"Mmmm!" Kang Liwen struggled, wanting to protest his innocence, saying that he didn't do it and that Song Shi was lying.

Unfortunately, the ones holding him down now were the Liang family army, not the yamen runners, nor the soldiers of Gu Chengyong or Qu Tongzhi.

So it's useless for him to die.

The Liang army was fierce and used the same methods they used against the Western Rong people to deal with Song Shi, causing Song Shi to speak again and reveal the truth that even Kang Liwen did not know.

"Master Yong has been poisoned for not just ten years, but thirteen years. At that time, Concubine Min hadn't even entered the mansion yet, but Master had already had an affair with Concubine Min..."

Then how did Kang Rong take this medicine?

Kang Liwen fed the nuts himself... But Kang Liwen didn't know that the nuts given to his child by Aunt Min, the gentle and kind Aunt Min he had just slept with, actually contained such poison.

When Aunt Min gave the nuts, she also emphasized that these were gifts from her, the future stepmother, to Master Yong, and told him not to eat them secretly.

Kang Liwen listened and said, "You didn't cheat... Why don't you cheat? If you did, you and Aunt Min would be considered perfect in another way."
