Lady Wan Guan

In fact, Taoist Priest Wu Gu had his heart set on giving Ji Yunchen some guidance. Without him, it would be up to Ji Yunchen to drive away powerful enemies in the future and teach him a few powerful moves to protect himself and kill the enemy.

Taoist priest Wu Gu asked for a drink, just looking for an excuse.

At this time Zheng Guan hurried over: "Sir..."

Hesitant to speak.

Gu Zhou stopped and said, "There are no outsiders here, that's all."

Zheng Guan then said: "Your Excellency, Li Zhong's father is about to die. Another matter is that Eunuch Zhu just came to convey the decree and revealed a case. The three divisions will interrogate it, and he asked your Excellency to go to the Ministry of Punishment immediately."

Jiang Wanning said: "I'm going to Li Zhong's house."

Gu Zhouting nodded and bowed to Taoist Priest Wu Gu: "Taoist Priest, please excuse me for being busy with official duties. Please take my leave first."

Wujia waved his hand indifferently: "Go ahead, let the Ji family boy drink two more drinks with me."

"No problem, you can drink as much as you want." Ji Yunchen said boldly.

When the two of them left the courtyard, Gu Zhou stopped and said, "The suspicion of His Highness can be eliminated."

"Well, I will try my best to treat Li Zhong's father and see you later."

The two got into their respective carriages and headed in different directions.

Jiang Wanning came to Li Zhong's house, and Li Zhong's father had only one breath left.

Jiang Wanning took his pulse and took out a silver needle to acupuncture Li Zhong's father.

While retaining the needle, he wrote a prescription and handed it to Xiao Pan: "Hurry up and get the medicine."

Xiao Pan took the prescription and went to get the medicine.

Li Zhong's wife Hui Niang and her two children stood aside timidly, not daring to express their anger for fear of disturbing the doctor who was performing the acupuncture.

When Li Zhong's father's complexion gradually returned to color and his pulse stabilized, Jiang Wanning stopped the injection.

He turned around and motioned for Hui Niang to go out and talk.

"Your father-in-law is suffering from an old illness, coupled with the intense heat and heart attack, he can't breathe, which makes his condition worse. Now I'm giving him an injection to open his blood vessels. I will get the medicine later and decoct it, and then the condition will stabilize." , and treat the rest slowly.”

"But...but we don't have money for medical treatment." Huiniang's eyes flickered.

Jiang Wanning knew very well that Huiniang was rich, but Huiniang did not dare to take out the money.

At least not in front of her.

"Mrs. Yao asked me to come here. Mrs. Yao will provide the money."

A flash of shame flashed in Huiniang's eyes, and she didn't know what to say.

Jiang Wanning said: "I think if I want to say it, the previous Chief Zheng has made it clear. Now there is a new situation. The Emperor has just decreed that the leak case involving Li Zhong will be handed over to the three departments for review. Do you understand the judicial review? Only Tianda’s cases need to be jointly investigated by the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Yushitai. Huiniang, there is no chance. If you don’t say it now, no one can help Li Zhong. Li Zhong will die, and he will be punished. Nine tribes. You, your father-in-law, and your two children will all die together with Li Zhong."

Huiniang was shocked: "How is that possible?"

"Why is it impossible? Who told you it's impossible? The laws of Daqi are clearly written. Do you want me to read the laws to you?"

"Not only is your family going to die, but also the Yao family will not be able to escape the execution. Hui Niang, the Yao family is a loyal family, can you just go and harm them like this?" Jiang Wanning looked serious and pressed forward step by step.

Queen Huiniangcang took two steps back, shook her body before she could stand still, and murmured: "No, no..."

"Huiniang, your family and the Yao family still have a glimmer of hope. If you miss it, I won't be able to help you." Huiniang looked at the female doctor in front of her in surprise: "Who...are you?"

"My name is Jiang Wan Ning. I opened Sanxitang and developed the acne vaccine. The emperor named me the head of Qingping County."

Hui Niang knelt down and cried: "County Lord, please save Li Zhong. I have advised him, but he is a filial son and cannot bear to see his father pass away because he has no money for medical treatment. He says he is unfaithful and unfilial. If I had to choose one, the only choice would be infidelity.”

Jiang Wan Ning finally broke through Hui Niang's defense and helped her stand up: "Get up and speak slowly."

Huiniang sobbed: "A few days ago, Li Zhong came back with a bag of silver and a few gold leaves, and secretly hid it under the bed. I saw it and asked him where it came from, but he told me to leave it alone."

"How could I ignore it? I was afraid that he had stolen something from his employer and sold it for dirty money, so I pressed him. I made him anxious, and then he told me that someone asked him to do something, and these were just deposits. There will be so much more after everything is done. I asked him what he was going to do? Should he do something bad? He said it was really not a good thing and would offend a good person. Once the incident happened, he might go to jail for a few years, but My father is seriously ill and he can only choose to be unfaithful and unfilial."

"He asked me to keep this secret no matter what. No matter who asked, I was not allowed to tell it, otherwise it would kill him and the whole family."

Jiang Wan Ning was speechless. Is this Li Zhong a pig?

After all, he was also a servant of an official, so he didn't know that disrupting the talent promotion ceremony was a serious crime, and he thought he would be released after spending a few years in prison.

It's too deceptive.

"Did he say who ordered him?"

Huiniang shook her head: "I only found out what bad things he had done when someone from the government came to his door today."

"What about the silver?"

Huiniang pointed to a sycamore tree in the yard: "I was afraid of being discovered, so I buried the money under the sycamore tree."

Jiang Wanning said: "I have to take this money away. This money is evidence. You can't use it. I will give you another sum of money, and I will continue to treat your father-in-law's illness."

Hui Niang knelt down again and said, "The county master has been so kind to me. Hui Niang will repay you by working as a cow or a horse in the next life."

Jiang Wanning said: "At that time, you may need to persuade Li Zhong."

Xiao Pan quickly brought the medicine back. Jiang Wan Ning told Hui Niang about the precautions, and then asked Xiao Pan to dig out the silver from under the sycamore tree before leaving Li Zhong's house.

"Madam, do you want to go home or..."

"Let's go to Dali Temple."

In the meeting hall of the Ministry of Punishment, Mr. Gong's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. His Royal Highness the Prince had just come to give his explanation, and he was about to interrogate Li Zhong again. However, the imperial decree came and asked the three judges to join the trial.

And soon Gu Zhouting and Yushitai Tao Yushi arrived at the Ministry of Punishment.

Both of them are notoriously upright in the court and are not easy to fool.

Master Gong felt worried, but also a little hopeful, hoping that they would find out that the mastermind behind this was Wang Peizhong's group.

Gu Zhouting and Tao Yushi were both reading the files. In the huge meeting hall, only the sound of turning files could be heard in silence.

It took a long time for the two of them to finish reading the file.

Gu Zhouting looked at Tao Yushi: "Master Tao, is there a night trial next?"

Tao Yushi said: "The emperor only gave a three-day deadline. Time is tight. Let's start interrogating the suspects now!"

The two of them asked and answered questions about interrogating the prisoner, but no one asked Master Gong what he meant.

Master Gong felt unhappy, but there was nothing he could do. He had the lowest rank among the three: "Who do you two intend to interrogate first?"

Gu Zhouting and Tao Yushi looked at each other and said in unison: "Chu Feifan."
