Chapter 429: Murder and silence

Just as he was thinking about it, Cui Liu was still worried. He opened the door and came in. When he saw her eyes open, he explained: "The girl has been tired for many days. I am afraid that the girl has fallen asleep. The weather has cooled down, so I am afraid that she will fall asleep."

You’ll catch a cold.”

Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his heart, Xie Songhua stood up from the bathtub.

Sitting in front of the dressing mirror, seeing her hesitant to speak, he simply said: "If you have anything to ask, just ask. I won't hide anything I can tell you."

"Is there anything I want to ask about, my slave? I just heard something outside. It was actually said that the prince colluded with the bandits of Ji Zong Mountain and the secret workers of Naqishan Country. He wanted to... wanted to..."

Cuiliu still couldn't say those two words.

Xie Songhua understood that such a crime was really too big, even if it was just mentioned in his mouth, it seemed to be worth a thousand pieces of gold.

"This matter has not been verified yet, and I don't know either. You can just talk about it here. Don't spread it around outside, or be careful of trouble coming from your mouth."

Cuiliu nodded quickly, then lowered her voice and said: "Originally, this kind of thing has nothing to do with us, but...the girl has a marriage contract with the prince, this..."

"Whether it's a blessing or a curse, let's just wait and see."

Just as he was talking, Xiaoqing walked in from outside and said, "Girl, there is a commotion outside!"

"What's the fuss about?"

"The people who brought those bandits down from the mountain in such a mighty manner today have seen it all along the way. In recent years, those bandits on Ji Zong Mountain have often brought trouble to the countryside. In addition, in the first half of the year, they killed good people and took credit for their merits.

At present, the people in Dengzhou Prefecture are very excited about the matter, and they want the government to show their attitude and deal with those people!"

"What?!"

Xie Songhua was surprised, "How could this happen? Even if we didn't avoid the common people along the way, how could ordinary people make such a request? This is..."

Xiao Qing nodded slightly, "Although I don't know who did it, it must have been guided by humans."

"What about the prince?"

"That's not to say. After all, the identity of the prince is here. I guess the people behind the scenes are also afraid. The people are just clamoring to deal with the bandits and the criminals in the Dengzhou Guard in public."

Xie Songhua calmed himself down, "Don't panic. After all, there is a long distance between Dengzhou and the capital. The local governor does not have the right to directly deal with human lives. Even if the matter is urgent, it means hundreds of lives. Even the governor of Shandong has no right to do so."

If you dare to act rashly, you will definitely write a letter back to the capital.

This round trip, eight hundred miles in a hurry, will take two days..."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Xiaoqing, "Is there any way to send the letter to Xie's house as soon as possible?"

Xiao Qing nodded, "Jinyiwei has its own letter transmission channel."

Hearing this, Xie Songhua was stunned for a moment, and then chuckled, "Look, I'm confused, the Jin Yiwei is still there! There is no need for us to be in a hurry here, if one thing goes wrong, the Xie family will be dragged into it again."

Cuiliu was shocked, "Then... shall we do nothing?"

"How can you do nothing? Of course you have to do it."

She lowered her voice, gave Xiaoqing a few words, then changed her clothes and went to find Xie Wenhua.

Xie Wenhua had also washed himself, and then he saw that he had a broken forehead, but fortunately the wound was not big.

Xie Songhua took out some medicinal powder and put some on his wound, then said: "Where is the prince now? Is he locked up?"

"Guan?" Xie Wenhua raised his eyebrows and shook his head with a chuckle, "He is the prince and the only son of Emperor Taizu. No matter how conclusive the evidence is, these people in the local area have no right to deal with him.

.

Everything will be decided by the Holy Emperor after he returns to the capital. Right now, he and the fourth prince are in a house, but no one can enter the courtyard, and several people are guarding it outside."

"What about the people outside?"

"Let's make a fuss! Don't you just want to use public opinion to force the people above to make a decision? Sometimes, going too far may not necessarily be a bad thing."

Xie Songhua was a little hesitant to tell him about Jiang and his wife, but he was afraid that once he told him, it would inevitably involve Han Jian, and the subsequent events would not be explained clearly.

So I still didn't say it out loud.

On the second day, while Xie Songhua was still sleeping, he was woken up by Cuiliu.

"Girl, please get up quickly. There are many people outside, waiting for girl!"

Xie Songhua woke up immediately and realized that it was still dark outside. "What time is it?"

"Cai Yinchu, last night someone attacked the government prison and went straight to the bandits in Ji Zong Mountain. I originally thought they were here to rob the prisoners, but in the end, they were here to silence them. There were dead men sneaking into the prison.

After pouring oil on it, those people used rockets to attack."

Such a big thing happened and she didn't know anything about it.

"How could this happen? What about those bandits?"

"Nearly half were killed or injured. Right now, the government office is busy transferring the remaining bandits. There is also something going on at the place where Qin Sheng and Zhao Qingshan are being held. It's not arson, but poisoning."

As Xie Songhua walked out, he listened to Cuiliu's explanation of the matter.

"This poison is very strange. Now both of them are still alive, but they can't wake up. The doctors and military doctors from Dengzhou Prefecture are here, but they don't have any clue, so they sent someone to invite the girl."

The person who came was a general from the Dengzhou Guard. When he saw Xie Songhua, he bowed first and hurriedly explained his purpose. Then he asked Xie Songhua to lend a helping hand. There was no need for them to ask for such a thing, it was her responsibility.

Qin Sheng and Zhao Qingshan were also involved in the murder case in Dapan Town. Behind these two people were also involved the prince and the Xie family. The matter was of great importance and she had no choice but to take responsibility.

In addition to the two of them, there were two soldiers responsible for guarding who were also unconscious.

Seeing her coming, everyone looked anxious and hurriedly gave up their seats to her, "Doctor Xie, you are finally here. What kind of poison is this? There are so many of us gathered here, but we don't have a clue at all.

.”

Xie Songhua did not refuse, and immediately stepped forward to check Qin Sheng's pulse, and then carefully checked every physical sign of his body.

Everyone's eyes fell on her, but as time passed, the look on her face became increasingly ugly.

"This poison is really a bit strange."

Hearing what she said, everyone else became a little anxious, "So, even Doctor Xie can't do anything about it?"

Xie Songhua did not answer, but frowned as if thinking hard about something.

"Although it's strange, it's not like I've never seen it before. I seem to have read a similar introduction in some book before."

Her words undoubtedly gave everyone hope, "Doctor Xie, don't be anxious. The more anxious you are about something like this, the harder it will be to think about it. We'll just wait for you to think about it slowly."

The one who spoke was the Fourth Prince who had rushed over. He had been handling matters at the Dengzhou Mansion Office last night. Now he came over early in the morning with fine sweat on his forehead.

As expected, Xie Songhua no longer paid attention to other things and only focused on meditation.

After a long time, she wrote down a recipe, "If I remember correctly, it's probably these, otherwise let's give it a try first!"

"Okay! Let the two of them try it first. If they succeed, they will give medicine to Qin Sheng and Zhao Qingshan. The others will continue to study the treatment plan." The fourth prince made the final decision.

This poison is not light, and there is not much time now, so everyone is very agile.

Not long after Xie Songhua drank the medicine, one of the soldiers had some reaction, and everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Seeing him open his eyes, everyone took the medicine and fed it to Zhao Qingshan and Qin Sheng.

Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse.
