Ning Wan had naturally heard of this rumor, but didn't take it to heart. But now that she thought about it carefully, Ning Wan's eyes became deeper.
"This matter is indeed strange. Go and see if there is anyone in Moyuan who has worked in the Regent's Palace for more than ten years. If there is, ask them about what happened to Yun Niang!"
Zi Su nodded. This matter could only be done in secret. Fortunately, she had become very familiar with Mo Yuan's servants during this period. After asking about it, she was really shocked.
It was time for dinner, but Zisu arrived late. Ning Wan looked at her and said, "How is it over there at Wangyue Tower? Have you ever been given trouble by people from the Duke's Mansion these days?"
Zi Su quickly shook her head and said: "Wei Zeng, the Duke of Guo has been busy with the affairs of the second young lady recently and has not gone to Wangyue Tower to cause trouble! However... Housekeeper Liu has contacted the slave and wants to invite the young lady to come back to the house to take charge of the overall situation!
"
Ning Wan frowned slightly and asked, "Is the Duke sick?"
Zi Su nodded, and Ning Wan then said: "In that case, it doesn't hurt to go back and have a look. Will the prince come with me?"
Helian Mochuan placed the tonic soup in front of Ning Wan and said, "Leng Li will accompany you, and you are not allowed to stay overnight!"
Now that Helian Mochuan agreed, Ning Wan left the Duke's Mansion with Zi Su, Baizhu and Leng. However, in just a few days, the Duke's Mansion became a mess.
Several aunts jumped out because Ning Qingyuan was seriously ill. In addition, Ning Xian'er was grounded, and the Duke's mansion was leaderless. The aunts even started to snatch money, and the situation got out of control for a time.
"I found the golden Buddha first. How dare you take it away, bitch? I will kill you!"
Except for Ning Qingyuan's study, almost all the property in other places had been looted. When Ning Wan entered the door, he saw the two aunts fighting in one place, actually trying to grab a golden Buddha?
"Where is Butler Liu?" After Ning Wan finished speaking, Butler Liu came over sweating profusely.
"Miss, Miss, you are back!" Housekeeper Liu looked at Ning Wan as if he were seeing his own mother, and almost burst into tears. However, the two aunts who were grabbing the golden Buddha showed no intention of letting go.
.
"Steward Liu, take these two people out and kill them with sticks. Also, count the property in the Duke's mansion. If you catch anyone who has stolen any property, they will be killed with sticks without having to report back!"
Butler Liu nodded. Now he finally had a backbone. He quickly found the accountant to count the property. There were quite a few people who had stolen property, including a lot of concubines and concubines. When Butler Liu saw it, this country
Half of the people in the palace are among them, and many of them are Ning Qingyuan's concubines.
Of course Butler Liu did not dare to kill them all, he had to listen to Ning Wan's instructions, and at this moment Ning Wan was taking Ning Qingyuan's pulse.
Putting her fingers on her wrist and feeling the chaotic pulse, Ning Wan's expression suddenly became serious.
"Miss, is the Duke seriously ill?"
Ning Wan didn't speak, her face remained solemn.
"I believe the imperial doctors have already looked at the illness of the Duke of Guo. They are at a loss to do anything. I am afraid that I, too, can do nothing!"
Zi Su glanced at Ning Qingyuan with some surprise. The person who was obviously alive and kicking a few days ago has now become like this. It is really a trick of fate!
"Miss, even you can't save the Duke, then isn't the Duke's mansion going to..."
Ning Wan loosened her fingers, looked at Ning Qingyuan with complicated eyes, and then called for Butler Liu.
"What did the imperial doctor say about the Duke's illness?" Ning Wan asked.
When talking about this, Butler Liu looked like he was about to cry and said: "The imperial doctor said that the Duke of Guo is suffering from madness!"
Ning Wan said nothing, she was not surprised by the result, but Butler Liu knelt on the ground and cried.
"Miss, you have superb medical skills. Please save the Duke!"
Ning Wan frowned slightly, but went to write a prescription at the table. After writing the prescription, she handed it to Zi Su to get the medicine. When Ning Wan was left in the room, Ning Wan looked at Butler Liu and said, "The imperial doctor should have said,
Madness can’t be cured at all, right?”
Butler Liu nodded and cried hard.
"That's why they dare to divide their property so unscrupulously, because they know that once the Duke goes crazy, no one will be able to decide everything in the Duke's mansion! Butler Liu, how do you think we can deter these greedy people?
"
After Ning Wan finished speaking, Butler Liu immediately realized that Ning Wan had guessed the purpose of his visit.
"Don't worry, young lady, I will go and enforce the family law now!"
Stealing the property of the government, even if it is placed in the government, is a serious crime. Being a domestic servant will definitely lead to death. Therefore, Ning Wan ordered that anyone who steals the property of the government, and once the stolen property is stolen, must follow the family law, and everyone must
Fifty big boards.
After fifty slabs were taken down, few people could be carried away alive.
Such a thunderous method made all the servants of the Duke of Guo's Palace stay silent. Who would have thought that the eldest lady who was the least favored in the palace before would now become the person with the most say in the Duke of Guo's Palace.
"Miss, the second lady sent a message saying that she wants to see you!"
Ning Wan was reading the account book in the study and refused without raising her head.
"No! Tell the second young lady to stay in the boudoir honestly and don't cause any more trouble, otherwise she won't even have the chance to be a concubine to His Highness the Third Prince!"
