The woman stood in the corridor waiting with Mr. Liu, feeling a little unsure.
Mr. Liu put one hand on his lower back and looked very calm.
"meeting!"
"But isn't there a war at the border? How could it be..." The woman didn't quite believe it. After all, Chu Yunning was a big shot.
Master Liu smiled unfathomably: "The eldest princess Anyang has been domineering for so many years. How do you think she died for no reason?"
"Isn't it possible that someone framed you?"
"Who in Qianzhou dares to risk his life and poison the eldest princess?" Mr. Liu shook his head. Ever since he heard about this, he had suspected that it was those two people.
Qianzhou has been making frequent moves in recent years. Although it was briefly concealed from the superiors, no one around them knew that Princess Anyang had already turned against her.
"Just wait and see, these people will not be left alone."
Master Liu also heard that an epidemic broke out during the border war.
But nothing happened to the soldiers at the southern end.
Whoosh!
An arrow was stably inserted into the pillar of the corridor. There was a letter pinned to it. Mr. Liu reached out and took it off. Although he was not a doctor, he could tell that this was the prescription!
"Is this the antidote?" the woman asked, could it be someone else deliberately framed?
Master Liu held the prescription and smiled: "You will know if you find a doctor to try it."
He was absolutely certain that this was true.
Soon Master Liu called the doctor and started dispensing the medicine according to the prescription. Immediately, a strong medicinal fragrance ignited in the yard.
an hour later
The doctor came up with the medicine in his hand and said with certainty: "This prescription is unheard of. It will definitely cure the epidemic!"
Master Liu gritted his teeth and decided to try the medicine himself.
After taking the medicine, Mr. Liu felt comfortable all over and warm in his stomach.
At this time, the voice of the secret guard on the eaves came: "Master Liu, this medicine is not complete. It still needs a medicine introduction. The master has ordered that after the medicine is collected, another medicine introduction will be mixed into it every day. This is the epidemic. Antidote!”
Mr. Liu looked at the people on the eaves excitedly, and then ordered to the yamen soldiers: "From now on, these medicinal materials will be purchased in large quantities. Pharmacy shops in the city are not allowed to increase their prices. Each person can receive one from morning to night every day. We will send heavy troops to guard it." , there must be no mistake!”
"yes!"
The woman watched the secret guard leave, feeling a little uneasy: "Sir, why is this man here? Is our safety guaranteed?"
"Don't leave the government office these days. In a few days, a group of troops will arrive from Yuanzhou."
Master Liu was very pleased: "I hope it can settle down as soon as possible so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."
The woman was a little confused after hearing this, and looked around anxiously.
next day
Mr. Liu personally led his troops to various medicinal shops to collect enough medicinal materials. In the afternoon, he set up a stall at the gate of the city and began to distribute free antidote to the disease.
"How do you have the antidote?" Mr. Lu didn't believe it, standing in front of the stall with his brows furrowed.
Mr. Liu raised his chin and immediately asked people to take Master Lu away.
"Whoever dares to sabotage will be executed on the spot!" Master Liu shouted angrily.
From a distance, Chu Yunning was very pleased to see this scene.
No wonder Xiao Jingheng values Master Liu.
She stayed in the inn and waited for news from time to time. The waiter came on time every day to deliver meals, but it was quiet and did not disturb her. Only the woman next door would occasionally poke her head in to talk about her daily life.
"Have you heard that Master Lu from Qianzhou lives in this inn?"
Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "So what?"
"Master Lu is from Qianzhou, and it is said that he is looking for an assassin. Although Mr. Liu is trying his best to suppress this matter, many people are talking about it on the street, which is making people panic." The woman said. She clutched her abdomen and began to feel melancholy. After a long time, she said: "Where is your husband? Why haven't you seen him for several days? You must keep an eye on your husband, lest he is seduced by the wild fox outside, and you lose more than you gain." .”
After chatting for a while, Chu Yunning discovered that when this woman was fleeing from famine with her husband, she was abandoned by her husband and ran away alone. She was homeless and had been living in an inn for several months. She stayed there every day. I have a fantasy that my husband will come back.
Chu Yunning saw that she was not very old, and that she had pretty features, but she was a little mentally dazed.
How pitiful.
Several times, she felt compassion and checked the woman's pulse, and discovered that she was carrying a pair of twins, a boy and a girl.
"If it weren't for the war, how could I be here?" The woman sighed.
"Do you remember who your husband is?"
The woman shook her head: "He is a high-ranking official. If it weren't for the support of my family, he would never be where he is today. My family tried their best to support him, but in the end he ended up being abandoned. It's sad!"
Then he changed the topic and said: "Fortunately, I kept an extra hand, just in case the banknotes were replaced with fake ones, and what he stole was just fake."
Hearing this, Chu Yunning immediately praised the woman more, she was okay, not too stupid.
"It's a coincidence that my heartless husband defected to Master Lu." The woman curled her lips and looked around: "I wonder if I can come this time?"
Just as she was speaking, the woman's eyes suddenly tightened and she met the man slowly coming up from the stairs. She gasped: "It's you!"
The man probably didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance in this place. He was suddenly stunned, and then he became angry again. He rushed forward and slapped the woman hard, shouting: "Bitch, it's all your fault for fooling me." I!"
In front of the man was Master Lu. After hearing the noise, he turned around and looked here. His eyes suddenly fell on Chu Yunning. He looked up and down. Those eyes seemed familiar.
"Han Qing, who is this?" Master Lu asked.
Han Qing gritted his teeth: "This is Li Fangyu, she was the one who caused me to fail the imperial examination."
He had already secured his official path during the imperial examination, and everything went smoothly. Who would have thought that the person in charge of the imperial examination would come back halfway and not only had someone beat him up, but also have him be directly disqualified from the imperial examination.
Li Fangyu was angry and angry: "You still dare to talk nonsense here. You and I have worshiped heaven and earth. How can the Li family be sorry for you? You want to frame the Li family like this."
Listening to the two people quarreling and blaming each other, Chu Yunning looked at Li Fangyu holding her waist with one hand, as if she was about to be out of breath. He felt sorry for the child in her belly, and immediately stepped forward to support her; "Don't get angry yet, be careful. It hurts the baby in the belly."
Li Fangyu gritted her teeth: "I won't cause any trouble for you today. I just want a letter of separation. Life and death in the future will have nothing to do with you."
"Bah! Dreaming!" Han Qing sneered and stretched out his palm towards Li Fangyu: "If you want to reconcile with Li Shu, you must give me two hundred thousand taels of silver. Otherwise, who knows whose child you are carrying?"
"You!" Li Fangyu was so angry that her head was spinning. When Chu Yunning saw this, she raised her hand and slapped Han Qing without hesitation. She was really angry, this man was such a scumbag.
"Why do you hit me?" Han Qing glared at her and raised his hand to hit her back. Chu Yunning held Han Qing's hand tightly and said in a deep voice: "This is Yuanzhou, it's not for you to act wild.
If you dare to bully her, we will report it to the official!"
Speaking of reporting to the police, Master Lu glanced back at Han Qing. Han Qing took back his hand angrily and said angrily: "This time we will let you go first..."
"It's not certain who is going to be let go!" Chu Yunning listened to the conversation between the two people, and she was still holding her breath in her heart. She directly raised her foot and kicked Han Qing hard: "It's not up to you to go to the government today.
Let’s go, waiter, please report to the official!”
"Who are you?" Han Qing was caught off guard and was kicked down. He wanted to stand up and teach Chu Yunning a lesson, but found that he couldn't move at all and could only look at Villa Master Lu as if asking for help.
Villa Master Lu snorted coldly: "It was Li Yufang who betrayed Han Qing, so Han Qing abandoned her. Don't help the wrong person."
"Nonsense!" Li Yufang yelled angrily, her face flushed, and she looked like she wanted to rush forward and tear Master Lu to pieces. Chu Yunning reached out to stop her: "For the sake of the child, don't be impulsive."
"The child is innocent. If it weren't for this child, I would go through all the troubles to find you?" Li Yufang seemed to be so angry that she tightly protected her abdomen with one hand.
Seeing this, Chu Yunning was a little moved.
She wanted to help Li Yufang.
"Don't worry, Master Liu will help you."
"Are you meddling in other people's business?" Master Lu narrowed his eyes tightly. Han Qing was his right-hand assistant. He came here specially to do things this time, but he didn't expect to encounter trouble at the inn. Plus, his temper was not going well in the first place.
, so Zhuangzhu Lu clenched his fists tightly, eager to take action against Chu Yunning.
"It's very simple to deal with this matter. Give a letter of peace and leave, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on. Otherwise, we can only report it to the official for strict investigation." Chu Yunning's momentum was not inferior to that of Master Lu, and he protected Li Yufang.
behind.
Han Qing on the side wanted to open his mouth, but Chu Yunning raised his hand and slapped him hard on the face again. The force of this slap was not light, and Han Qing spit out two teeth stained with blood.
"That's enough!" Zhuang Zhuang shouted angrily. Even if he suffered a loss at the hands of Lord Liu these days, he was also bullied by Chu Yunning. Zhuang Lu couldn't stand it at all, so he made a move to let the men behind him come forward.
.
At this time, Mr. Liu came with the Yamen soldiers.
"Isn't this Mr. Lu? It's such a coincidence that we meet again." Mr. Liu came here at short notice. He was out of breath and almost lost one of his shoes.
When he saw that Chu Yunning was intact, Mr. Liu breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's really a lingering ghost!" Mr. Lu has nothing to do with Mr. Liu. This man won't take soft and hard advice. He really has no choice but to wait for someone from above to deal with Mr. Liu.
When Master Liu becomes a prisoner, he will never show mercy!
"Sir, you have to make the decision for Mr. Li. Mr. Li has been deceived by him and has to be abandoned. This person is going to be beaten up. He must not be forgiven easily.
!" Chu Yunning pointed at Han Qing and said.
Han Qing was hesitating and speechless. These two slaps almost killed him. He covered his face and looked at Master Liu aggrievedly.
The owner of the village, Lu, said: "Master Liu, you cannot listen to one person's words. This Li family does not abide by women's ethics. The heir in her belly is not Han Qing's at all. There is no talk of abandonment."
"Master Lu, do you dare to take a gamble?" Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows and sneered, pointing at Li Yufang's belly: "I will give birth in the next two days, sir, you can be a witness, and then we will have a bloody acknowledgment.
Then you’ll know the truth.”
As soon as the words fell, Han Qing's eyes flashed with guilt.
But Chu Yunning didn't give him a chance to speak at all: "I suggest you take this person into custody as soon as possible, lest he escapes and cannot be found."
"Why should he arrest someone if he didn't make a mistake?" Villa Master Lu was unhappy and didn't bother to argue with the two of them. He was about to leave with Han Qing, but Master Liu reached out and grabbed Han Qing's arm: "Master Lu, you can leave.
This Han Qing must stay!"
"Why?"
"Just because I am the parent official of Yuanzhou, if someone reports to me, I will deal with it!" Mr. Liu said righteously.
Master Lu smiled coldly: "Although you are the magistrate of Yuanzhou, you do not have the final say in Yuanzhou alone. Today I have to take people away. If you dare to stop me, why don't you take a look outside?"
Under the window stood a group of people, all of whom were brought by Lujiazhuang to protect the hospital. They all held swords at their waists: "If you are sensible, just turn a blind eye, otherwise I will never spare you!"
The government soldiers came to report that ten thousand people had come from the direction of Qianzhou at the city gate. They had occupied the antidote stall at the city gate and injured many innocent people. Master Liu's face suddenly darkened when he heard this.
"Master Liu, it's just the prince's order. You are not allowed to obstruct my search for any reason. There are still suspicious people in Yuanzhou City. If you dare to obstruct it, you will be in the same party!" Zhuangzhu Lu said.
Master Liu glanced sideways at Chu Yunning.
Chu Yunning's eyes were open and unafraid. It was a pity that Wanhuyuan could be sent to the battlefield. She gave Master Liu a reassuring look.
Master Liu, who received the signal, suddenly smiled; "I just want to investigate Han Qing's affair with Li Yufang. This is two different things from Master Lu's investigation..."
"Han Qing is my man, no one is allowed to touch him!" Master Lu turned around and looked at Chu Yunning angrily: "Come here, arrest this person. I now suspect that this person is related to the frame-up.
The murderer of the princess is an accomplice!”
"Master Lu!" Chu Yunning listened to the signal from the secret guard, and she knew that 30,000 elite soldiers were in place!
Therefore, Mr. Lu was not taken seriously at all.
"I didn't know when a prince could transfer the prefects of other places at will, and dare to search at will! It's so audacious!" Chu Yun looked at the other party indifferently.
At that time, there was the sound of fighting outside.
After just a stick of incense, several lieutenant generals came over. They were all fierce and murderous. Seeing Chu Yunning, the Queen obeyed obediently. She raised her hands and knelt down on one knee: "General, please pay homage to Chu."
Shang Gong!"
"Chu Shang Palace?"
Everyone around was stunned.
Including Zhuang Zhuang, who looked at Chu Yunning in disbelief, stared at those eyes, and finally came to his senses: "You are Chu Yunning!"
Chu Yunning curled her lips and said, "Master Lu, you're fine!"
Then, before Master Lu could react, Chu Yunning gave a look and a group of elite guards rushed in and took down the people one by one calmly. The speed was staggering.
