Without the woman talking, Li Qingshi could tell from her reaction that the mother and daughter were really related to Xu Feng.

Her face became extremely pale, and she was speechless for a while.

Li Qingshi didn't urge, just looked at her quietly, waiting for her to speak.

It wasn't until the pale face recovered a bit of blood that she broke free from the clay sculpture and wood sculpture, took a deep breath, looked directly at Li Qingshi and asked, "How do you know?"

She didn't mean anything else by asking this question, she just felt a little strange.

Their mother and daughter have been in contact with Li Qingshi for a long time, and they have long been able to confirm that this young man with excellent medical skills did not come here for the secrets about her.

He really just met them by chance.

And she was sure he was a good guy and had done them a lot.

Putting aside the life-saving grace, let’s just talk about her business of washing and washing clothes for others after recovering from illness. If the people nearby knew that she knew this young official man, the business would never have been so easy.

In fact, she is not too old, she is not yet thirty, if it is not for his face, the green-skinned idlers on the street would not let her go.

He may not know these things, but she remembers every bit of it in her heart, but she doesn't know if there is a chance to repay her in this life.

Li Qingshi thought for a while and said: "I was investigating Xia Cheng, Wang Quan, and Li Guang in the imperial hospital. I heard about this old incident by accident. For some reason, I suddenly thought that Xiaoqing was also surnamed Xu, so I hugged him. Let me ask you for an idea of ​​luck."

The woman was silent for a while, and said: "This matter is very involved. If I tell you the whole story, it may bring you disaster."

Li Qingshi said: "Just say what you want, no matter what is involved, no matter whether there is any danger, I will find out."

The woman saw his persistence, but still hesitated, not for her own sake, but because she was really afraid of pushing this benefactor into a situation he couldn't handle.

But looking at Li Qingshi's burning eyes, she knew that even if she didn't say anything, he would definitely investigate by herself, so after a short hesitation, she finally spoke.

She is Xu Feng's wife, named Xu Yinrong, and Xu Xiaoqing is their only child.

Xu Feng inherited his father's career. His father used to be an imperial physician in the imperial hospital, but because he suffered from an incurable eye disease, he resigned in advance and returned to his hometown Shizhou to live in seclusion.

After his father resigned, Xu Feng passed the assessment of the Tai Hospital and entered the Tai Hospital as an errand.

The disaster of exterminating the family was indeed caused by Xia Cheng.

That night, Xu Feng was on duty at the Imperial Hospital. Xia Cheng came back drunk and accidentally fell when entering the door. Xu Feng went to help him and helped him pick up some debris that fell from his body.

One of the medicine bottles broke, and three blood-red pills rolled out of it. At that time, Xu Feng didn't think much about it. Most of the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital would develop some medicines by themselves. This is not a rare thing.

He helped to pick up these pills, but as soon as he got closer, he smelled a very pungent smell of blood.

Although he was young, he had a lot of experience, so he immediately thought that this might be something crooked.

Holding the pill in his hand, before he had time to observe it carefully, Xia Cheng, who was a little drunk and unconscious, suddenly woke up, snatched the pill, and said with an ugly expression: "Don't touch my things!"

Then he pushed Xu Feng away, and picked up all the things that fell on the ground and stuffed them into his arms. It seemed that he had already woken up more than half of the wine.

Xia Cheng's reaction made Xu Feng more sure that there was indeed something wrong with the three blood-red pills.

It's just that the pills have been taken away by Xia Cheng, and it's impossible for him to study them carefully.

Just when Xu Feng was about to sit back in his seat, he suddenly saw a piece of porcelain in the corner, probably because Xia Cheng didn't see it, and left it behind.

Xu Feng picked up the tile and found that there was a little bit of the pill on the edge, presumably it was rubbed on it when the medicine bottle was broken.

Relying on this little bit of residual medicine, Xu Feng finally confirmed that the blood-red pill was indeed crooked. Although he didn't know how it was made, he deduced from his experience that it might be related to the lives of fresh people.

He suddenly thought that the next day would be the day when Xia Cheng gave Grand Tutor Bai Tonggu's Ping An pulse, and he broke out in a cold sweat. Could it be that this weird pill could stabilize Grand Tutor Bai's condition?
Xia Cheng seemed to have left something behind and forgot to take it, and was about to go out after taking it, when Xu Feng stepped forward to stop him and asked what the origin of the pill was.

Xia Cheng was not willing to say anything, so he said a few perfunctory words.

Xu Feng has always been an upright person, he grabbed him and said, "Didn't you kill someone else's life to cure Bai Taifu's illness?"

Xia Cheng's complexion changed, and he pointed at his nose and said angrily, "Be good to yourself, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will kill you all over the house!"

Xu Feng still refused to let go, and still tugged at him, saying: "As doctors, it is our duty to heal the sick and save the sick. It is absolutely unacceptable to harm others for the sake of saving them. You must not go astray! If you don't listen to the persuasion , Tomorrow I will report to Lord Yuanzheng!"

Xia Cheng patted his hand away, and said viciously: "You wait."

There were other people present at the time, but they were far away. I don't know why they were arguing. One person came to persuade Xu Feng and said, "Mr. He pays for it."

Xu Feng was absent-minded, and when it was almost dawn, he finally came to his senses. It is impossible for Grand Tutor Bai Tonggu to be unaware that he was going to take the pill, so Xia Cheng must have agreed to this crooked way!
If you break this matter by yourself, if it gets out, Mrs. Bai's reputation will definitely be ruined, and maybe they will be involved in something illegal, so in order to cover up this matter, they might really kill people to silence it!
He finally realized that he had made a big mistake.

After realizing this, Xu Feng's first reaction was to go to Lord Yuanzheng to report everything, and suddenly thought, is Lord Yuanzheng also involved?

With suspicion, I feel that everyone around me can't be trusted.

So he hurried home after he was off duty, wrote a letter, and sent his confidant servant to his hometown in Shizhou, and told him not to come back again.

His premonition was indeed correct, but he never expected that the other party would come so soon. Before noon, officials broke into his house and arrested everyone.

The trial of the case was also extremely fast, and within three days, everyone in the family was beheaded.

Fortunately, when he went from his hometown Shizhou to the capital to perform his duty, he left his wife and daughter with his parents to fulfill his filial piety, which allowed Xu Yinrong, mother and daughter to escape unharmed.

Xu Feng wrote the whole story clearly in the letter.

After Xu Yinrong received his letter, according to his arrangement, he asked his parents-in-law to hide together for refuge. However, his father-in-law has a very stubborn temper and firmly believed that the court would not favor traitors and slaughter Zhongliang. at home.

Xu Yinrong was frightened, so she took Xu Xiaoqing away from home and hid secretly.

Later, including the parents-in-law, no one in the family was spared. (end of this chapter)
