Hua Ruge felt like he was going to explode from the words Hua Ruge had said to her.
"Hua Ruge, don't think that no one knows about what you've done." After a while she glowered.
Hua Ruge squinted, thinking that if you knew something you shouldn't have known, it wouldn't be too far off from the day of your death.
"You were the one who killed Xiao Yuyan and the people she went in there, right?" Hua Lingling approached her and whispered.
Seeing that Hua Ruge did not make a sound, she continued, "Previously, she teamed up with so many people, so everyone knew that it was against you. Now that you've returned, they actually died unexpectedly, so you must have killed them."
Hua Ruge still felt that she had underestimated these people. The matter of Xiao Yuyan joining hands to borrow power from the Fang family, as well as the higher ups monitoring each other, was something that could not be hidden. She thought that she had done it secretly, but in truth, everyone should have suspected it a long time ago.
However, she did not have the strength to kill everyone. Furthermore, the internal environment was very complicated and the students who came out did not personally witness. Therefore, these people should only be suspicious and had no way to confirm it.
This thought flashed through her mind as she smiled and said, "Talking is not good, but your slandering skills are not bad. You said I did it, but where is the evidence?"
"You don't need any proof, unless you have no enmity with Xiao Yuyan." Hua Lingling coldly snorted.
Others might still be suspicious of her, but she had already unilaterally determined that it was Hua Ruge, because she had enmity with Hua Ruge.
"What a bandit logic." Hua Ruge raised his eyebrows: "Then how are you going to explain the affair between you and the ugliest boy in your family last night?"
In this era, a woman's chastity was valued extremely highly, once these words were spread out, Hua Lingling would no longer be able to behave.
"Nonsense." Hua Lingling was flustered and exasperated.
"Unless you prove that the attendant is not a man, or that you are not a woman, then you are innocent." He looked at her in ridicule.
"This is simply nothing, you slander." Hua Lingling said angrily.
"It doesn't matter, anyway I'll go to the market and talk to those aunties who buy vegetables. If the aristocratic ladies do such a thing, I'm sure everyone will be willing to discuss about it. In a few days, you should prove it to the entire capital."
Hua Ruge crossed his long legs as he helped her think of a way to develop further.
"No one would believe it." Hua Lingling forced himself to remain calm.
Hua Ruge laughed and said, "When the news spreads throughout the entire capital, this matter will be the truth of the matter."
Hua Lingling's face instantly turned green.
"I know you must be feeling wronged and angry, but it doesn't prove your innocence." Hua Ruge leaned in and said kindheartedly, "Let me teach you a way, you will really steal the ugliest servant, and then hearing it from others will not make you angry, because this is the truth."
Hua Lingling was so angry that even his teeth were trembling.
Hua Ruge looked at the servant outside the door as if nothing had happened: "Fill a cup of tea for Miss Hua, go and vent your anger."
Hua Lingling stared at her, speechless.
After that, Hua Ruge's ears became much clearer, but Hua Lingling was a little scared, afraid that Hua Ruge would actually spread it.
Rumors were fiercer than tigers. Once word of this spread, she would never be able to get married again.
As the two of them waited, a group of people rushed over from the front residence. The person in the lead was a middle-aged man in his forties who was tall and strutting like a tiger, with a resolute expression on his face.
Behind him followed a thin man wrapped in a black cloak. From a distance, his face could not be seen.
There were two attendants behind the two of them. One of them was holding a tray with a bowl of black medicinal liquid on it.
Hua Ruge felt that it was strange, the cloaked man looked like a doctor who treated illnesses, but why did doctors have to be so secretive.
General Mao walked forward and both Hua Ruge and Hua Ruge stood up.
Hua Lingling took the lead and said: "Greetings General Mao, I am the granddaughter of the Great Clan Elder of the Hua Clan. I am here on behalf of my grandfather to visit Young Master Mao."
"Grand Elder is being too courteous." General Mao replied with a smile.
Then, he looked at Hua Ruge and asked: "This is?"
"Junior Hua Ruge is Brother Mao's good friend." Hua Ruge introduced himself.
When General Mao heard Hua Ruge's name, he paused for a moment. His expression was somewhat complex, as though he was thinking about something.
Hua Ruge immediately understood what was going on.
Mao Jun's injury this time was caused by a sword, and was clearly not an accident, but a human. Furthermore, although he did not have any enmity with her, he had an extremely good relationship with her.
Adding on the rumors earlier that Xiao Yuyan had combined their powers to kill him, Mao Jun would definitely help him out, so even if Mao Jun did not say anything, the elders would be able to guess why he was injured.
Mao Jun spoke about brotherhood and could not be blamed, but as someone who cared about Mao Jun a lot, it was different.
Hua Ruge could understand General Mao's feelings at the moment. He couldn't blame Hua Ruge for causing his son to be ungrateful, but he also felt uncomfortable in his heart.
"So it's Master Hua. I often hear Jun'er mention you." General Mao was relieved, and forced a smile as he spoke.
He had the same temperament as Mao Jun when he was young, so he could understand his son's actions, but he couldn't let go of this matter in his heart.
Hua Ruge merely nodded, and did not speak. She also knew that General Mao did not want to talk to her at this moment.
"The two of you, wait here for a moment. Let's send the medicine in first." The General Mao said.
Hua Ruge felt an itch on her nose, and a pungent smell entered her nose. Her gaze landed on the medicine bowl.
"Wait." she said.
General Mao frowned and asked: What's the matter?
"Junior has some medical skills and would like to consult with this senior." Without waiting for General Mao to speak, Hua Ruge walked in front of the cloaked man.
"I don't teach disciples." A raspy voice came from the cloak, sounding displeased.
General Mao quickly came over and said, "Master Hua, this is an expert that my family has invited with a great deal of money. Don't be rude."
"I'm afraid that the General Mao was deceived, this medicine is not even considered medicine, not only does it have no benefits to the Brother Mao's body, it would even affect the reconstruction of his dantian." Hua Ruge said directly.
She was well versed in pharmacology, so she could tell that this person was just bluffing and had used Mao family's anxiety to play tricks on him.
Hearing this, General Mao's face darkened, and he said: "Master Hua, do not spout nonsense. Jun'er clearly felt spirit energy circulating in her dantian during these two days, and this is all thanks to this master's medicine."
His words were very respectful to the cloaked man.
"You're done?" Hua Ruge frowned, then asked: "Did Brother Mao take the medicine I gave you two days ago?"
She was asking the servant by Mao Jun's side.
The attendant answered honestly, "Yes, I've been taking that medicine for the past two days, but this master has also prescribed the medicine."
His meaning was obvious. He did not know whose medicine was effective.
Hua Ruge understood in her heart that she was still confident in her own medicine.
"If you have a way, you can do it. I'll take my leave." The cloaked man had the demeanor of an expert. When he heard the doubts of others, he turned around and left.1
"Grandmaster, please wait a moment. Children are ignorant. I apologize." General Mao immediately stopped the cloaked man, his tone sincere.
Mao Jun was the only direct descendant of the family.
The Great Master stopped and said, "This old man came here to treat you because I was sincere. If I don't let this boy leave today, this old man will definitely not stay here to be humiliated."
His hoarse voice was filled with anger.
"I didn't dig your ancestor's grave, why am I so angry? Could it be that he has a guilty conscience? " Hua Ruge moved closer and continued to provoke him.
The black-robed man didn't say anything.
"Hua Ruge, are you really going to hurt my Jun'er until she becomes a cripple?" This time, the one who spoke was General Mao.
Seeing that the General Mao was panicking, Hua Lingling smiled as he watched the show.
Hua Ruge's face congealed as he said seriously: "Brother Mao is my brother, I want to save him more than anyone else. It's precisely because of this that I can't let this kind of person lie and swindle me.
Her eyes were firm, and her words were loud and clear, causing people to have more time to think.
General Mao had the same temperament as Mao Jun when he was young, and he rather admired this kind of person who dared to act recklessly.
"General." The cloaked man protested in dissatisfaction.
"Calm down, master. Since you have the ability, don't be afraid of what the child will say." General Mao's voice was still respectful, but there was a sense of threat in his tone.
He was originally a military man, and once he had doubts in his heart, he wouldn't have too much of a scruple.
Hua Ruge did not have any proof, he could just apologize again.
Hua Ruge opened his mouth and said: "Because there are only a few common herbs to improve your spirit, adding on the Spirit Runes used by the Taoists, all of you would think that the medicine's smell is strange, different from the rest, but it's just a trick."
"A child spouting lies." The cloaked man was displeased.
"As long as you find someone with a bit of medical knowledge, you can find out if it's true or false." Hua Ruge had already walked to his side as she spoke with determination, "He doesn't know any medical skills at all, he's just a fake Taoist who knows how to deceive people."
The cloaked man was startled. He knew that the scam had been exposed. He jumped backwards and arrived in the courtyard in the blink of an eye.
General Mao's reaction was surprisingly fast, and with a flash of light in his eyes, he was about to give chase.
Hua Ruge pressed down on General Mao's shoulder and said: "General, just wait and see."
The cultivation level of the cloaked man was not high, but it was not low either. The moment Hua Ruge finished speaking, he had already scuttled to the roof, and with a flip, he was already out of the General's Estate.
General Mao was anxious. How could his fiery temper allow others to trick him?
However, just as he was feeling anxious, the cloaked man's figure froze and he unexpectedly fell down from the roof. His head fell into the snow.
"What's going on?" General Mao looked at Hua Ruge strangely.
"In order to prove that I know some medical skills, I drugged him when I passed by him. As long as he used his spirit energy, his entire body would be temporarily paralyzed."
Hua Ruge pointed at him and said, "If you don't believe me, you can have someone drag him over and ask him if his entire body is numb and sore, and if his movements are inconvenient."
General Mao's face showed his suspicion at first, but when he saw Hua Ruge insisting, he pointed at the cloaked man in the snow: "Bring him over here."
