Chapter 221 - 221 Reunion (1)



The first thing Su Qi and Su Yu did was fight to visit their grandfather.

“I’ll go first!”

“I’ll go first!”

The two brothers tugged at each other, neither giving in.

In the end, Su Yu took half a step ahead of his second brother and squeezed into the Old Marquis’s house.

The brothers, who had been arguing outside, immediately fell silent as soon as they entered the Old Marquis’s room.

Seeing that their grandfather, who could still practice boxing in the courtyard before they set off, lie weakly on the sick bed, their eyes turned red.

“What happened to Grandpa?” Su Yu choked.

The letter said that their grandfather’s health was not good, but they did not expect it to be so bad.

Su Qi blamed himself. “It’s all my fault. If I had known… I wouldn’t have gone to the crowning ceremony…”

“It’s not your fault, Second Brother.” It was rare for Su Yu not to undermine Second Brother. “You can’t help much in the residence.”

Su Qi sniffed. “At least I can accompany Grandpa…”

Su Yu said, “Second Brother, don’t think too highly of yourself.”

Su Qi was speechless.

Su Yuan also came over to see the Old Marquis. Then, he went to the study next door with a pained heart.

“What did Physician Fu say?” Su Yuan asked.

Su Mo did not hide anything from his father. “He was poisoned. He also has heart disease.”

Su Yuan was shocked and grabbed the armrest of the chair. “What? How did your grandfather get poisoned?”

The heart illness was surprising, but the poisoning was even more unbelievable.

Su Mo said, “I’m secretly investigating, but I still have no clue. I’ve asked Grandpa about his daily diet, and there’s nothing strange. We can rule out the possibility that he was accidentally poisoned.”

The so-called accidental poisoning referred to the suppression of food. Such a situation was rare, but it was not unheard of.

The Old Marquis’ poison clearly did not belong to such a situation.

Su Mo continued, “I suspect… that someone poisoned Grandpa, but I haven’t found out how or where.”

Su Yuan nodded and agreed with his son’s guess. “Who would poison your grandfather?”

Su Mo said seriously, “My grandfather has been in the military his entire life. He’s upright and has made countless enemies. I’m afraid it’s very difficult to lock in the murderer based on the motive. From the perspective of the beneficiaries, the first beneficiary is actually Father.”

Su Yuan hesitated.

Su Mo said, “If Grandpa passes away, Father can smoothly inherit the position of Marquis of Zhenbei. I know that Father won’t frame Grandpa, but the officials in the court and the citizens in the capital all know that Grandpa had a big fight with Father a few months ago. Grandpa even threatened to abolish Father’s position as the heir and return the title of Marquis to the Imperial Court.”

Su Yuan smiled bitterly. “So, in order to protect my title, I’m very likely to attack your grandfather.”

Su Mo’s eyes were firm. “Father won’t, but rumors will cause trouble.”

Su Yuan naturally wouldn’t harm his father. He understood that his son trusted him. His son was stating the facts and crushing all the clues to analyze them objectively and impartially.

He was proud to have such a son.

Seeing that his father was not turned off, Su Mo was relieved and continued, “Grandpa has military power. If he dies, he will benefit many military families, the Wei family, the Murong family, the Qin family, and the Leng family.”

Su Yuan shook his head. “The Qin and Su families are dead. Without your grandfather, the Qin family’s power in the Imperial Court will be weakened. The Qin family won’t frame your grandfather. As for the Wei family and the Leng family…”

Su Yuan fell silent.

The entanglement between the Wei and Su families could not be explained in a few words.

Su Mo continued, “By the way, Father, there’s one more thing.”

Su Yuan said, “Tell me.”

Su Mo frowned. “Did Grandpa… investigate Miss Su?”

Su Yuan was puzzled. “Why do you say that?”

Su Mo said, “Miss Su has a nickname in the countryside. Her name is Fatty. I don’t remember mentioning it to Grandpa, but Miss Su said that when Grandpa woke up, he called her Fatty.”

Su Yuan suddenly became excited.

Su Mo looked at him strangely. “Father?”

Su Yuan calmed himself down. “Aunt was a little fatty when she was young. Father always called her Fatty…”

Su Mo looked at the portraits of his aunts hanging in the study. The girl in the portrait had a graceful figure and was not fat at all!

Su Yuan coughed lightly. “Aunt gave the painter 200 taels of silver to make her thinner.”

A person could be fat, but not her portrait!

Before she got married, his aunt’s portrait somehow landed among the commoners. The entire capital knew that the Su family had a fairy-like beauty. Countless children were infatuated with his aunt, crazy about her, and banging against the wall for her!
