Chapter 637 Spreading Rumors
In the early morning of the next day, the discussions about Ci'an Tang's Anshen Pill on the streets of the capital had reached a fever pitch.

A man gossips loudly with a group of people.

"Have you heard? People from the Chen residence came out to avoid rumors. At first, some people said that Chen Shangshu fell into a coma because he took the Anshen Pill from Ci'an Hall, but now it is said that he took the sleeping pills from Taoist priests."

"Let me just say, how could the Anshen Wan in Ci'an Hall eat bad people?"

Another man who had just arrived corrected him.

"Oh, your news has long been outdated, and now there is a new statement!"

Everyone gathered around.

"Ah? What's the point? Tell us quickly."

The man from before muttered, "I haven't been out on the street for a long time, why do I say something different now, is it true or not?"

"Really! What happened in Chen's mansion, the previous moment is completely different from the next moment, and it is even more twists and turns than the story of the teahouse!"

"What kind of twists and turns? Tell us quickly."

"Yes, don't keep it up, tell us quickly."

The man who just came said: "Okay then, I'll tell you from the beginning to the end, but after you've heard it, you can't talk about it everywhere. If you offend...don't blame me if you get revenge!"

Someone was puzzled: "If you speak clearly, who will you offend?"

The man said: "You will know after listening to me."

Out of curiosity, more and more people gathered around.

The man begins to tell made-up stories.

"Chen Shangshu suddenly fell into a coma due to taking tranquilizing pills for a long time. He fell into a deep sleep from the night before yesterday until noon yesterday."

"This incident was spread by the talkative servants, saying that Chen Shangshu fell into a coma because he took the tranquilizing pills from Ci'antang. This is the first news we heard."

"It's not a rumor, it's a fact."

"Because the folks at Ci'an Church have already said that long-term consumption may have side effects, but I don't know that I can't sleep well."

"Chen Shangshu's parents were so anxious that they burst into tears, but there was nothing they could do, because several doctors said there was nothing they could do. They went to invite Miss Lingzhi, the owner of Ci'an Hall, but she refused to go to Chen's residence to see Chen Shangshu."

"I can't blame her for this. Who told the Chen family to despise her as a poor village girl and didn't recognize her right away."

At this time, another man who was his accomplice sang oboe with him.

"I'm sorry, I want to interject a few words. This is Miss Lingzhi's fault. At the beginning, the emperor was unwilling to reveal the lowly status of Concubine De, and forbade the Chen family to publicly recognize her. This is actually not a matter of the Chen family."

"Seeing that grandpa is seriously ill, but he doesn't care about it, and grandpa and grandma go to invite her in person, she can be ruthless not to look at her, and even make some sarcastic remarks, and leave grandpa and grandma angrily!"

In ancient times, most of the people were foolish and filial. Among the onlookers, there were some who said: "Miss Lingzhi has really gone too far in this matter..."

The man who sang the oboe said angrily: "It's not only excessive, it's simply outrageous!"

The man who made up the story explained in a low voice: "It doesn't matter if these words don't get out, if it gets out, it might be dangerous, so I dare not say it...""

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, do you still want to listen to me?"

Someone hurriedly urged him: "Yes! You continue to talk, what's going on?"

The man continued on.

"When Chen Shangshu's parents were in a state of confusion, Young Master Chen came home. After he learned about the situation, he hurried to Anle Palace."
