Early the next morning, the door of Jiang's courtyard was surrounded by officers and soldiers. Jiang Fang just got up and when he left the house, he saw Yu Peide sitting in the yard.
After seeing Jiang Fang, he still felt a little guilty. After all, it was not a good thing for him to come here today, but Jiang Fang was still kind to him after all, and now she was the princess who was about to return to the palace.
Seeing Yu Peide wearing official uniform, Jiang Fang knew at a glance that it was not a good thing. Did Empress Dowager Jiang ask him to take him back to the palace?
But it seemed that this posture was not what Jiang Fang expected, so Jiang Fang asked: "Master Yu, what kind of wind has brought you here?"
Yu Peide quickly saluted, and then said: "I don't think I should take it, I don't want to take it. I only came here today because of official business. I'm disturbing the princess."
Jiang Fang still didn't like others calling him that, so he said: "I haven't entered the palace yet, so you can just call me Jiang Fang. It's a bit awkward. Why did you come to visit me today?"
Yu Peide seemed a little embarrassed and opened his mouth, but no words came out. He waved his hand, and the master next to him came up and handed him a portrait.
Yu Peide handed the portrait to Jiang Fang, and then said: "Today, someone reported that a maid died in the house. This is not a big deal, but this maid is the concubine of Xu Kaizhi's thirteenth room, He Xiaoxiao.
It is said that she is still pregnant, and she has one body and two lives. She was planning to come over tomorrow, but today she was found dead in the house."
Jiang Fang looked at the portrait, but couldn't remember that he had seen this person before. But since Yu Peide had come to the door, naturally this matter was either for his help or related to him.
This case is not a big one. The death of a maid in the house would not have been publicized. But since it was the 13th concubine of the richest man Xu Kaizhi, it would naturally be taken seriously.
But even if it was taken seriously, the prefect Yu Peide should not have come to investigate the case personally, so after all, this case was probably related to him.
Jiang Fang didn't go around any more and said directly: "Master Yu, do you think this matter has something to do with me? I have to thank you for coming here in person."
Yu Peide saw that Jiang Fang was so direct, so he stopped hiding it: "I'm doing an autopsy, and it turns out that He Xiaoxiao died of poison, and the poison was also found in a small porcelain bottle."
After saying that, Yu Peide winked at the man again. The man quickly stood up and took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms. Jiang Fang took one look and knew why Yu Peide came to the door.
The porcelain vase was made by Jiang Fang himself by a master. The design and color are not the same around here. Originally, Jiang Fang just had a personal preference, but slowly the color became her signature thing.
The transparent erythromycin ointment inside was also unique to Jiang Fang. Jiang Fang took a look, but saw that the supposedly transparent ointment seemed to be mixed with these powdery things.
The man said: "Then He Xiaoxiao died of poisoning last night. She hadn't walked in yet, so there was no maid to wait on her, but she slept alone in the same room.
Early this morning, the tailor came to deliver the wedding dress, but when he opened the door and went in, he saw her lying on the ground, her clothes disheveled, and later she was found dead."
Before Wu Zuo finished speaking, Jiang Fang also knew that when He Xiaoxiao died, he was probably not wearing any pants and was applying medicine.
Jiang Fang was famous for treating internal diseases, so it was natural to suspect Jiang Fang.
Yu Peide continued: "So Xu Kaizhi ordered his housekeeper to report the case early in the morning. He checked with several doctors, and they all said that He Xiaoxiao was probably suffering from Hualiu disease.
A coachman at home also said that he came to see you yesterday for medical treatment, so I wanted to ask you if you gave her this medicine?"
Jiang Fang smiled and said, "Don't you know everything? Otherwise, why would you ask me? But don't you think it's strange? I have a hundred ways to kill people, but I used the stupidest one.
You can tell at a glance that this bottle belongs to me, Jiang Fang, and it’s made so obvious that I’m afraid it’s almost written on her face that I, Jiang Fang, killed her, right?”
Yu Peide quickly knelt down and said: "I don't dare to do this because of my humble position, but this matter is related to your reputation, princess. I don't dare to be careless in my humble position."
Jiang Fang had a guess in her mind. She finally knew why the woman looked like that yesterday, and this woman was probably not Xu Kaizhi's maid.
She seemed to be asking for help yesterday, but Jiang Fang didn't pay attention because of Duan Jiutianhua's incident. Now that he thinks about it, he is afraid that someone deliberately forced her to come to him for treatment and put the blame on him.
They were afraid that this woman was found in a brothel. Women from ordinary families would just deal with the disease on their own and would not suspect that they had a heart disease.
This disease will heal on its own if you endure it, but women in brothels are different. If there is ulceration down there, they will probably be afraid.
Maybe she was targeted when she was visiting the doctor, but Jiang Fang really didn't know why someone would use a woman's life to frame herself as the fault?
Jiang Fang asked himself that he had not offended anyone, he practiced medicine to save people, and nothing unpleasant happened, but at this juncture, he was afraid that someone did not want to enter the palace.
Empress Dowager Jiang changed her identity with Xiao Huaigu. At this time, Empress Dowager Jiang was already in power. Although Empress Dowager Jiang had not officially ascended the throne, it would be sooner or later. It was just a missed opportunity.
The Xiao family must be very anxious at this time. The Yong Kingdom's surname was originally Xiao, but after Empress Dowager Jiang did this, it seemed that she was about to change her surname.
Jiang Fang became famous for his medical skills by treating the internal diseases of the girls in brothels, and the novel food at Sheng's Restaurant. If Jiang Fang entered the palace, it would probably increase the power of Queen Mother Jiang.
Although preventing Jiang Fang from entering the palace cannot reverse the situation, it can at least give them a chance to breathe. Maybe they will take advantage of the trouble on Jiang Fang's side to deal with Queen Mother Jiang.
Jiang Fang thought about it for a while, if it was really because of his identity that someone deliberately framed him, the water here was too deep and he would definitely not be able to solve the matter.
But if Empress Dowager Jiang was asked to ask for help at this time, she would probably stand by and watch. She wanted to change her identity because she just took a fancy to her talents and abilities.
If she couldn't handle this matter well, Empress Dowager Jiang would probably give up on herself. Back then in the ruined temple, she could change at any time, but now she can give up at any time.
