Bianjing female doctor has a melon-eating system

Chapter 2 You are not your father’s biological child!

"Don't talk nonsense here, you know the truth in your heart." Xue Zhong turned to the emperor: "Guan family, you see this female doctor also tried to attack the official, it is obvious that she is desperate. According to the official's opinion, she is the murderer without a doubt. That's it. Convict her of defying the imperial power, poisoning the concubine, and attacking the ministers, and punish her for all the crimes!"

The emperor was already agitated, but before he could speak, he was interrupted by a man with a beautiful beard: "Master Xue is so smart with his tongue! Just the touch of his upper and lower lips, the crime was settled. I don't think there will be any need to worry about it in the future. You have worked so hard to investigate the case, and someone like Mr. How about it with Mr. Xue?"

Xue Zhong was ridiculed by Wei Yi, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice. His face turned red and his neck was thick with embarrassment, and he did not dare to speak anymore. He looked at the emperor with his small eyes squeezed by fat, which was quite pitiful.

"What's the expression on Mr. Xue's face? Are you dissatisfied with what Mr. Wei said?"

"Hey, Master Xue has never obeyed Master Wei. Don't you know this?"

"Master Xue, what do you think the officials are doing? Officials are smart, so they won't be disturbed by you."...

All the court officials had long been dissatisfied with Xue Zhong as a troublemaker, and now they were all gearing up. If they wanted to have a big fight, it would be best to trample Xue Zhong to death here.

"Stop making trouble!" Seeing that a quarrel was about to start, the emperor was furious and about to get angry, but was stopped by the queen beside him, Wang Qin.

"The officials have calmed down their anger. We haven't yet conducted a comprehensive investigation. We only listened to Mr. Xue's words and rushed to convict this female doctor. It is indeed unconvincing to the public. It is better to put this woman in prison first and wait for the Dali Temple people to investigate clearly. Then punish her. Firstly, if there is evidence, no one will make nonsense that will affect the reputation of the official family. Secondly, to put it bluntly, nothing is important now, only the things behind Concubine Shu's sister are more important than anything else. They are all important. The deceased is the most important, and the most important thing now is how to deal with the aftermath of Concubine Shu. Guan family, you and your sister have a deep relationship, so you need to take more care of your sister's aftermath." The Queen was persuasive.

Hearing the word "reputation", the emperor's heart "thumped". The queen was right. Many ministers from the court were invited to the banquet today. Originally, these sour scholars often reported that he preferred Concubine Shu. If the female doctor Ji Yutang had something hidden, , but he executed her in a rage. One can imagine the storm he would suffer during the court meeting. If this causes those bitter Confucian scholars to have different intentions, his brothers who are eyeing him... will lose more than he gains!
  Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on the emperor's back. He glanced at the queen gratefully, but luckily the queen reminded him.

Seeing that he had thought clearly, the queen ordered her maid to place the body of Concubine Shu. He also appeased the ministers and ordered the maid to serve tea. Finally, he personally stepped forward to help Li Jie and helped him sit on the soft stool.

"Xue Zhong, the minister of Dali Temple, take all the relevant people down and investigate them carefully." The emperor thought for a while and waved his hand haggardly.

The queen glanced at Xie Huaichu, rolled her eyes, and said to the emperor: "It will be difficult for Mr. Xue to shoulder this important task alone. How about finding him a helper? This way, the real culprit can be found earlier to comfort the soul of Concubine Shu. ."

"Who should I look for?" The emperor had a headache.

"It is best to be someone who belongs to the same Dali Temple as Mr. Xue, so that it is easier to cooperate." The queen said.

"Then Dali Temple thanks Huaichu! This kid originally insisted on starting from a junior official, so let him assist Xue Zhong in handling this case and practice hard!"

Ji Yutang walked through the gate of hell, and now that she knew that her life was not in danger for the time being, she felt like a tight rope suddenly broke, and fell to the ground softly, without any strength in her body.

She understood that this temporary safety was the result of a game between several parties, and she must seize the opportunity to escape from danger. She also lamented that feudal society was indeed not an easy place to mess around. A poisoning case could involve the game between the imperial power and the courtiers. Xie Huaichu walked towards Ji Yutang. He looked at the female doctor who left a strange impression on him. He must have been around 28 years old. The hair tie that tied his hair was broken during an argument. There was coagulated blood on his disheveled hair. His clothes were also stained by the dragging. The whole thing was very embarrassing. However, she can still vaguely see her young face, which is delicate and delicate, and her eyes are full of water, with a feeling of happiness for surviving the disaster.

Two hours later, in the cell of Dali Temple.

Because of Ji Yutang's words, Xue Zhong was humiliated and was ridiculed by several ministers. Therefore, he hated Ji Yutang so much that he naturally would not arrange a comfortable cell for her.

Ji Yutang knew this, but she never expected that Xue Zhong was so capable that he could find her such a humid and hot cell, filled with rats and sewage. The straw on the ground was wet and smelly. Ji Yutang kicked the straw away with his feet and found a relatively dry corner to sit and rest.

The situation was critical just now, and she couldn't feel anything due to the congestion in her brain. Now she realized that the back of her head was hurting badly. There were no medical supplies at the moment, so she could only tear off a soft and clean inner garment and wrap it up.

When Xie Huaichu came over, it was already noon on the second day, and Ji Yutang had already curled up and fell asleep.

"Ms. Ji?"

Ji Yutang woke up with a start and found that Xie Huaichu was alone. He breathed a sigh of relief: "It's you! That's great."

Xie Huaichu didn't understand why and smiled: "Why is it so good?" He felt inexplicably uneasy.

Ji Yutang looked at the gentle and elegant young man in front of him, leaned closer and whispered: "Because I want Mr. Xie to save my life. If Mr. Xie agrees, then the secret that you are not Xie Zhen's biological son will not be exposed."

Xie Huaichu, known as the "Jade-faced Man of Bianjing", always has a smile on his face and a gentle tone, making talking with him like a spring breeze. Since he was fifteen years old, he has been the object of admiration of many young ladies in Bianjing and the object of jealousy of many men. Therefore, he always maintains his demeanor and actions are elegant and dignified, until now.

Today was the first time that his expression lost control.

Xie Huaichu's face was cold, and the elegance of the hibiscus was gone, and now his face was as dark as the mud of a lotus pond.

"Ms. Ji, were you knocked unconscious by someone hitting a vase from behind? Do you need me to call a doctor for you?" He said this through gritted teeth.

"If Mr. Xie doesn't believe it, you can investigate it yourself secretly." Ji Yutang recalled the specific gossip content informed by the system and continued, "I will give Mr. Xie some directions. Your daughter-in-law is the direct daughter of the Liu family. The Liu family has a very magical inheritance. The direct lineage Every child born has a birthmark in the shape of an ingot on his shoulder. The Liu family happens to be merchants, so they think this is a good omen and have always used it to determine the blood lineage of their children. But Mr. Xie, you don’t have this birthmark on your shoulder, right?"
