The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 390 Dai's Past

Going back to the time of the previous emperor, members of the Dai family all served as imperial physicians. Because of their family-inherited techniques for preserving pregnancy, they became the targets of many concubines in the palace to win over and make friends with.

The Dai family has a family motto that family members only protect the fetus and never harm others. After all, for those who are well versed in fetal appearance, it is easy for them to make a child disappear quietly.

If anyone is found to have violated this rule, they will be executed according to clan rules as a warning to others, and all close relatives will be executed together.

But under such strict family rules, a strange thing happened.

During the time of the previous emperor, Imperial Physician Dai secretly fell in love with a concubine and secretly conceived a child, intending to conceal the fact.

For the sake of that concubine, Imperial Physician Dai abandoned his family honor and disregarded the strict family rules. He used his medical skills to harm many concubines and royal heirs.

Truth will come to light sooner or later. The first people to discover something was wrong were the Dai family. As for how they discovered it outside the palace and who was involved, they had no idea.

The Empress Dowager at that time was related to the Dai clan. When she learned about this, she dealt with it privately and secretly.

This is a royal scandal, and if it becomes public, it will damage the reputation of the royal family.

The concubine died suddenly along with her child. Imperial Physician Dai was demoted and sent home for multiple crimes including dereliction of duty, smuggling banned items into the palace, and reselling medicinal materials in the palace.

Members of the Dai clan will never be allowed to work in the palace.

This was only because the Empress Dowager showed mercy for the sake of her natal family in-laws. Otherwise, if the truth had been revealed, none of the nine members of the Dai family would have been able to escape.

Later, it was said that Doctor Dai, who had returned home, was so depressed that he died of shame.

His parents were deeply shocked and followed him to die, leaving behind only a younger sister who was raised by the tribe. She later disappeared, presumably having been abducted by kidnappers and could not be found.

Of course, these are just what people say outside.

After Doctor Dai returned home, he was sent directly to the ancestral hall. He watched his parents being beaten to death with his own eyes, and his blocked mouth let out a broken scream.

There was no regret in those eyes, only bloodshot and angry.

"The clan rules are strict and will not be violated by anyone. As a member of the Dai clan, you knowingly broke the law. Since you know the punishment for doing something so unforgivable, you must bear the consequences."

He couldn't escape either. After seeing his parents die, it would be his turn.

Their mouths were blocked, so the only sound during the execution was the muffled sound of the board hitting flesh.

"dong dong dong"

On the bench, a lump of flesh slowly stopped struggling and breathed its last at dawn.

Darkness and dawn.

In the ancestral hall, blood seeped into the bluestone floor, and the servants washed it over and over again, shaking their bodies.

What a drama of a pair of infatuated lovers being separated.

Zuoqiu Shiyi sat there sneering. It was a coincidence that she knew about this.

However, many big families knew some of the inside story of this matter, but they kept it secret and did not make it public. They could not bear to see the royal family make a fool of itself.

It was also because of this that the Dai family directly sealed up the Thousand Gold Needle Method, regarded it as a family heirloom technique for preserving pregnancy and did not allow the younger generation to learn it.

This was their explanation to the royal family.

Therefore, this also became the family precept of the Dai family, from then on, members of the family were not allowed to diagnose women.

Even the girls in the family were not allowed to seek medical treatment except from their parents.

This is also why Xiao Qianyi had to leave home at such a young age and travel thousands of miles to study in the girls' school.

She had seen her mother so delirious due to fever that she couldn't find anyone to see her. She had no choice but to ask her uncle to prescribe some medicine and wait for her father to come back before he could check her pulse.

This distorted educational concept permeated the minds of every man in the Dai family. All the men, whether from the main family or the side branches, went to watch the execution.

Those three pools of flesh paste became a nightmare that they could not escape for countless nights.

This is what happens when you fail to take care of your lower body.

So by coincidence, the Dai family members only took concubines, no one visited prostitutes, let alone had mistresses.

The timing of Qianyi's return home is just right.

The shame of the Dai family at that time aroused the disgust of the royal family.

The man and his family could only hide in the small town of Beiyang, but a golden phoenix flew out and its name appeared in the history books.

Among the ancestors of the Dai family, only one ancestor was mentioned briefly in history books for his contribution in saving the queen.

Just a few short words, but they seemed like a great honor.

Today, Dai Qianyi's life and achievements are recorded in history books because of his research on caesarean section, which can be said to be the supreme honor of his life.

But this has nothing to do with Dai.

Because the historical records say that Dai Qianyi was once a member of the Dai clan, but was expelled from the clan at the age of six...

Dai Qianyi made a positive contribution to history, but the royal family holds grudges. It has not been a hundred years since the Dai incident. If it were not for such a daughter, the Emperor of Chu would have wanted to dig out the person and whip his corpse if he remembered it again.

The reward he gave him definitely had nothing to do with the Dai family, and there will be no connection between him and the Dai family in the history books.

Not only that, when others see Dai Qianyi, they will remember how blind the Dai family she used to be was, and how they actually kicked away such a good gold nugget.
