This was the first time Majesty Kang lost his temper in five or six years. Everyone was scared to death and did not dare to talk too much.
They still remembered the last time Majesty Kang got really angry. It was because of the Princess Consort.
Xiajun Yanting saw the expressions on the faces of the people before him and knew that he had lost his temper. “You guys should cooperate to work on different things. Suppress this issue for now and let the department officials be prepared. Send someone to investigate this. The clues must end at the Lu family. The Lu family is useless now.”
Everyone knew that Majesty Kang was using the Lu family to resolve the issue this time.
“Majesty Kang, what about the Yuan family?”
“The Yuan and Han families are united by marriage, and they are both great noble families. The capital cannot be shaken to its core. Keep them, and don’t act rashly.”
“Yes!”
Xiajun Yanting appeared to have recalled something as he waved his hand and said, “After the news had been suppressed, hold a press conference. I will attend in person.”
This issue was too big and too shocking. He had to personally come out to resolve it.
“Understood.”
“Also, check what kind of people Lu Suyan came into contact with recently.”
He felt that Lu Suyan would not say such things for no reason. There must have been a cause for it.
“Yes!”
Although he had relayed his orders, Xiajun Yanting still harbored suspicions towards Xie Limo. However, he could not find any evidence within a short time.
Furthermore, Xie Limo had not been reporting to work recently. According to the person who reported to him, he was completely focused on caring for his wife at home right now.
When he heard this news, his suspicion was greatly reduced. After all, a man who only cared about a woman and had no spirit to work was not much of a threat.
…
That afternoon, Ding Guangwei woke up. When he saw the casts and bandages on his body, he kept on screaming and ranting at the doctors and nurses. He even threatened that if they don’t cure him, he will make them all lose their jobs.
The doctors and nurses ignored his threats. He was merely a chief inspector at a police post. He was already lying in the hospital and still wanted to behave so atrociously?
Ding Guangwei’s heart started to become arrogant and crazy. Seeing how the doctors and nurses ignored him, he got so enraged that he kept making a scene and refused to cooperate with them for treatment.
Who knew how many times Ding Guangwei made a ruckus throughout the afternoon?
In the end, the doctors and nurses decided to leave him alone.
When Ding Guangwei had calmed down, he realized that something was off. Why did his colleagues from the police post not come and visit him? By right, they should come and visit him with gifts!
At that moment, Ding Guangwei did not know that evidence of his corruption, bribery, and other unlawful practices had already been exposed by the reporters.
Who would want to associate with Ding Guangwei now? Naturally, they all wanted to stay far, far away from him.
Even the relatives of the Ding family who became officials because of his influence were also exposed. It could be said that this time, all the issues concerning the Ding family were caused by Ding Guangwei.
Now, the relatives of the Ding family probably could not remember all the benefits that Ding Guangwei had given them. They started to rant and blame Ding Guangwei in their hearts now.
They knew that he was in the hospital, but not a single person came to visit him.
Even when Ding Guangwei called, no one answered.
…
In the central hospital in the capital, Yun Bixue awoke when it was almost noon.
She blinked as her eyes got used to the whiteness of the hospital. Not long after, she remembered what happened last night and immediately looked down at her stomach. She put her hand on it as her face turned pale.
When Xie Limo saw that Yun Bixue was awake, he immediately said, “Xue, the baby is fine. Everything is fine.”
Yun Bixue finally heaved a sigh of relief. She noticed the exhaustion on Xie Limo’s face and the stubble on his chin. Her heart ached as she said, “Were you by my side the whole time? Didn’t you sleep?”
