Chapter 1975 Chu Yaozu begs for mercy
"Father...Father, I...I know I was wrong, please forgive me this time." Chu Yaozu was very afraid of the just and strict Chu Bangguo. Now that the evidence of his guilt had been discovered, he knew that he was doomed, and it was difficult for him to even beg for mercy.
He hugged Chu Bangguo's calf tightly, crying and begging: "Father, I will never dare to do it again. Please forgive me this time. I will definitely change and listen to you in the future."
"Chu Yaozu, tell me yourself, how many times have you said this kind of thing since you were a child, and how many times have you done it?" Chu Bangguo said in a low voice, his eyes full of disappointment.
He had high hopes for this son, so he named him Yaozu, hoping that he would bring honor to the family.
But since he was a child, Chu Yaozu has always been a little bully who refuses to obey discipline, and now he has made such a big mistake...
Chu Bangguo sighed, but before he could say how to punish Chu Yaozu, a woman suddenly rushed out and knelt down in front of Chu Bangguo.
"Master, Yaozu is still young. He just doesn't understand. You can't arrest him. We will teach him well and he will be well taught."
The woman kowtowed to Chu Bangguo and cried, pleading for mercy on behalf of Chu Yaozu. Chu Yaozu also hugged her and called her "mother" miserably.
Seeing that his son and wife were forcing him, Chu Bangguo's face turned ugly and he clenched his fists tightly.
"If a son is not well educated, it is the fault of his father. Chu Yaozu is like this, and it is also the fault of the Chu State for not educating his son properly. He has made mistakes in the past, and he must not make the same mistake again in the future. I will never tolerate him."
After he finished speaking, Chu Bangguo looked serious and waved his hand. The guards behind him immediately came forward, separated Madam Chu and Chu Yaozu, and took Chu Yaozu away.
"Father, father, I am your son, you can't do this, you can't do this."
"Chu Bangguo, are you going to hold your own son accountable?"
Chu Yaozu and Madam Chu roared almost at the same time, with such loud voices that they nearly shattered Chu Bangguo's eardrums. He covered his head with his hands, and his expression became even more disappointed.
He didn't say much, but just asked the guards to take Chu Yaozu away.
Seeing that Madam Chu was going to snatch someone away, Chu Bangguo turned cold and grabbed her wrist directly, and ordered in a cold voice: "Watch Madam, don't let her come over to cause trouble."
"Yes, sir!" the subordinate responded, and Mrs. Chu was instantly subdued and taken back to her room. When she left, she kept yelling, wanting Chu Bangguo to release her son.
Faced with his wife and children's mischief, Chu Bangguo was disappointed but had no intention of covering up for them. Chu Yaozu was also taken to jail, awaiting the final trial.
“I just hope that the evidence found later won’t let Yaozu…” Chu Bangguo murmured and sighed deeply. After all, he was his son and he didn’t want Chu Yaozu to die.
He personally watched the guards pack up the things in the secret room, and Chu Bangguo also left with the evidence.
Three days passed by unknowingly. Under An Qi's care, Caixia's injuries gradually recovered. Wan Shufang also bought the yard next to the charity hall and used it to build a small pharmacy to provide medical supplies for the charity hall.
After temporarily handing over the affairs of the pharmacy to Li Yao, Wan Shufang and Chen Changli concentrated on Chu Yaozu's case. When they learned that Chu Bangguo had directly put the man in the cell, they were both shocked. They did not expect Chu Bangguo to be so ruthless.
"It seems that we did misunderstand Lord Chu before. Changli, let's go visit Lord Chu and see how he plans to deal with Chu Yaozu."
Hearing this, Chen Changming understood that she was worried that Chu Bangguo would protect his own son, so he did not stop her. He just nodded and agreed: "Okay, it's just right to go now, and I can also meet Chu Yaozu."
"I always feel that this matter won't be that simple." Chen Changli murmured. He had a hunch that Chu Yaozu was not the only one who did this.
But it was just a guess after all, so he didn't tell Wan Shufang. When the two of them found Chu Bangguo and said they wanted to meet Chu Yaozu, Chu Bangguo did not refuse and agreed directly.
"Your Excellency the Duke, Madam, please follow me." Chu Bangguo made a gesture of invitation, walked in front to lead the way, and took Wan Shufang and Chen Changli to the prison.
But before the three of them reached the place where they were being held, they saw a prison guard running out in a hurry, in a panic, and almost bumped into Chu Bangguo.
Seeing this, Chu Bangguo was immediately ashamed. His subordinates had made such a mistake in front of Chen Changli. He immediately scolded: "Why are you so flustered? How can you be so rude?"
"Sir, my lord, the young master... the young master..."
Hearing the other party hesitating and not being able to explain clearly for a long time, Chu Bangguo frowned and asked, "What's wrong, young master? Are you clamoring to come out again?"
"No...No, sir, the young master is dead!"
The guard's words stunned the other three for a moment. Chu Bangguo couldn't believe it. He grabbed the guard and asked him again. When he got the same answer, his face suddenly turned pale.
"Yaozu is dead." Chu Bangguo's lips trembled, his eyes fixed, and he walked in quickly. Seeing this, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang looked at each other and hurriedly followed.
When they arrived at the prison, the three of them saw the situation clearly inside and finally understood why the guards were so panicked. It was because Chu Yaozu's death was too strange.
He seemed to have experienced great pain before his death. He gouged out his eyeballs and crushed them. His face was covered with bloody scratches and there was not a single piece of good flesh on his body.
"Yaozu, open the door quickly, open the door!" Chu Bangguo shouted, his eyes full of bloodshot. The guard did not dare to delay and quickly took out the key to open the door.
Seeing such a bloody scene, Wan Shufang couldn't help feeling a little nauseous. She frowned and covered her mouth, trying hard not to make any sound.
Chu Bangguo's son had just died, and it would not be good for him to vomit it out here.
After finally suppressing the feeling of nausea, Wan Shufang mustered up the courage and looked at Chu Yaozu again, only to see that Chu Bangguo had already picked him up.
"Lord Chu, your son's behavior is really weird. There must be someone behind the scenes manipulating him. Please take him out and ask a coroner to perform an autopsy with me." Wan Shufang said in a deep voice, but Chu Bangguo said nothing and just picked up the dead Chu Yaozu.
He walked out step by step, and when Wan Shufang was about to speak, he said in a hoarse voice: "I know, thank you, ma'am."
After saying that, Chu Bangguo carried Chu Yaozu away, and Chen Changli and Wan Shufang followed silently.
The hired coroner arrived at the Chu residence quickly and worked with Wan Shufang. Before long, they found out the truth about Chu Yaozu's death.
The two walked out of the house and bowed to Chu Bangguo outside the door: "Master Chu, Master Chu died of poisoning. This poison is extremely strong and will cause people to suffer before death."
That’s why Chu Yaozu’s situation is so miserable.
Wan Shufang did not say this. After all, Chu Bangguo was very sad at the moment, and she did not want to bring up Chu Yaozu's miserable condition, so she changed the subject.
"Master Chu, do you know how Master Chu was poisoned?"
