Chapter 41 The Death of Wei Cong
Wei Ran took a deep breath, straightened his clothes, stood up and went out, telling the young man who had just been here: "Go and invite people to Qingchi Courtyard."

The boy looked at her in shock. Seeing that she didn't look like she was joking, he turned around silently and went to do the work as he was told.

Qingchi Courtyard is the residence of the head of the family, and it is also the place where Wei Cong sent someone to summon her just now.

After the boy left, she walked slowly to Qingchi Courtyard.

From the moment she stepped into the Qingchi Courtyard, a strange sense of depression hit her face. The servants who were originally responsible for sweeping the house disappeared, leaving only lanterns along the way to guide her in the direction she wanted to go.

Something gradually became clear in Wei Ran's mind, the familiar routine, the careful design, the perfect coordination, and the timing. Maybe she vaguely knew the reason for Wei Cong's sudden death.

A loving father does not love his son for repayment.

It's a pity that Wei Cong's love was limited to Wei Tong from the beginning to the end, and he was so partial. It's no wonder that I am so jealous.

I just don’t know what role her well-known good sister played in this matter.

Human feelings are like thin paper, and the world is like a new chess game.

Even the love between husband and wife for many years cannot withstand the obstruction of the slightest personal likes and dislikes in the heart, let alone the temptation of the slightest interest.

Wei Ran stopped in front of the door, looked at the door that was only ajar, sighed slightly, pushed the door open and walked in.No matter what, some things do not belong to you. If you abandon them, you can avoid many disasters.

Not long after she walked in, a boy poked his head out from the wall outside. After a while, the originally quiet Qingchi Courtyard suddenly became lively in a "just right" way, and a group of people rushed here in a hurry. The sound of dense footsteps could be heard in the distance.

In the room, Wei Cong was lying motionless on the bed, looking peaceful, as if he was asleep.

Jin Xiayao fainted on a chair nearby. Wei Ran walked towards her, took out the medicine bottle in his sleeve and smoked it on the tip of her nose. Jin Xiayao, who had fallen asleep, suddenly frowned, as if she was about to wake up.

Seeing this, Wei Ran put away the bottle and retreated to the threshold, pretending to have just entered the house.

When everyone came to Wei Cong's room, they saw this scene: Jin Xiayao pointed at Wei Ran in panic and spoke harshly, while Wei Ran looked at her with shock and grief. The two of them seemed to have just happened. What a dispute.

"What's wrong, Master?" Tian rushed forward, eyes red, and hurried in. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Wei Ran and Jin Xiayao confronting each other, and was shocked, "Why is Miss Jin here?" this?"

Wei Ya, Wei Tong, Wei Jin, Wei Yu and others also came with their people. They were all shocked when they saw this scene.

Only Wei Tong was the first to react, ignoring Wei Ran and Jin Xiayao, and went straight to Wei Cong's bed. A man dressed as a doctor behind her also followed and took Wei Cong's pulse immediately.

"Dad?" Wei Tong shouted worriedly. Seeing that he didn't respond, she hurriedly looked at the man dressed as a doctor, "Doctor Liao, how is my father?"

After doctor Liao checked her pulse, she shook her head helplessly and said, "Miss Tong, please forgive me."

After hearing this, Mrs. Tian rushed towards Wei Cong in grief and cried loudly. Wei Ya's face showed a little sadness, but no one showed surprise. Only Wei Jin and Wei Yu were shocked beyond measure, and Wei Jin stared at him in disbelief. Looking at Wei Ran, his eyes were so sad and resentful that they seemed to be staring into a hole in her.

"My father is fine. What do you say?" Wei Tong was so anxious that tears flashed in his eyes. "Doctor Liao, please take a closer look. Dad was obviously fine yesterday." Doctor Liao had no choice but to reach out and check Wei Cong carefully. However, when she saw a red mark on his chest, she was shocked.

"This"

Wei Tong was also stunned and looked back at Jin Xiayao.

Wei Ran then spoke eloquently: "When I just entered the door, I saw Miss Jin here in a panic and didn't know what to do. I dare to ask Miss Jin, what did you do to my father?"

"I didn't!" Jin Xiayao hurriedly denied, "Don't rant, this matter has nothing to do with me!"

"Then why did you appear in my father's room at this time?"

"I obviously came to find you, but I fainted for some reason, and then I woke up here. It must be you! You deliberately framed me!" Jin Xiayao was furious, and after realizing it, she cursed, "Wei Ran , you dare to frame me! I will definitely report to the court and punish you for disrespecting the nobility!"

"Are you saying that I used my father's death to frame you? Jin Xiayao, don't go too far."

Wei Ran was stern, but he was sneering in his heart, even if you guessed it right, would anyone believe it?

"Besides, you said you came to see me? There was no invitation or servant to follow you. Miss Jin, your level of nonsense is a bit poor. Besides, how can anyone come to visit someone else at night? Will anyone believe this?"

"Obviously you said it"

"What did I say?" Wei Ran looked at her jokingly, apparently asking a question, but actually blocking her words as a reminder, "If I remember correctly, except for a few days ago at my house, we Have you never met before?"

Jin Xiayao was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she naturally came in a hurry after hearing the news that Lord Luoyang was coming. It was rumored that Lord Luoyang had always admired Wei Tong, and she was afraid that she would be robbed by the Wei family if she arrived too late. She had the chance to go first, but how could she say this?

Only then did she realize that Wei Ran had deliberately released false news just to lure her here!
What a thorough game!

"Now that things have happened, I have violated my father's teachings, and I have to say some things." Wei Ran said solemnly, "Mom, aunt, actually it was my father who called me and Miss Jin here today. We are doing things in secret because the family scandal must not be made public. , I didn’t expect that I would be a step too late, and my father would actually have a conflict with Miss Jin, and I didn’t expect that Miss Jin would do something to hurt my father impulsively.”

"You're talking nonsense! Why would I hurt the head of the Wei family for no reason?!"

"Of course it's because of a disagreement, impulsiveness, and your shameful secret." Wei Ran accused him heartily.

"What secret?" Tian asked in surprise.

"What kind of secrets can I have? Don't talk nonsense!" Jin Xiayao's face was twisted with anger. If so many people weren't watching, she would have been able to help teach Wei Ran a lesson.

Wei Ran said: "Tomorrow is the wedding day of Third Sister and the eldest son of the Shui family, but my father accidentally discovered the secret affair between you and Shui Shijin. It was related to Third Sister's happiness. Naturally, Father was impatient, so he secretly called you I came here to hear an explanation, but I never thought you would be so ruthless in order to cover up this secret!"

"This is happening?!" The others all looked at Wei Ran and then at Wei Jin, shocked and speechless. Only Tian spoke in disbelief.
