Chapter 138: Death In The City [I]

Zhao Ling really didn't expect that Cui Shi would come to her in a desperate situation like this. Seeing Mrs Cui, who had always spoken badly to her, bowed her head this time, it really made her a little uncomfortable.

After patiently listening to Cui's intermittent crying, she also roughly understood Zhao Ruo's current situation.

In her final analysis, it was because of the bitter tactic she used last time at the Qixi Banquet. At that time, the wound on her back was extremely deep, and the old doctor just quickly made the simplest hemostasis bandage for her. As a result, the wound festered and became inflamed, and the fever persisted, and she was in a coma for two days.

But today, Prince Rong's mansion was being strictly guarded by the old emperor's troops, Princess Rong was also in bed, and Meng Yunce was all angry with Zhao Ruo. Regardless of her life or death, everyone in the mansion was in danger, who else could she think of, to take care of Zhao Ruo, an insignificant concubine.

It was just that Cui Shi was in a hurry, or in her mind, she was still the stupid Zhao Ling. Zhao Ruo's bitter trick was clearly designed to frame her. Now that she was seriously ill because of that bloody hairpin, they still wanted her to rush to Prince Rong's mansion to treat her?

She's sorry, she was not the naive girl, and she was certainly not that stupid.

"If sister Ruo is ill, the doctor in the royal palace will give her a diagnosis and treatment. Why should mother worry so much? Besides, my medical skills are mediocre, and I am really powerless. Please forgive me." expression.

Cui Shi really had no choice. With a thud, she knelt down in front of Zhao Ling and said with tears in her eyes: "Ling'er, I beg you as a mother, please save Ruo'er. She was really dying. She sent me a note like this."

The Dasheng Dynasty paid the most attention to etiquette. Cui Shi was still her nominal mother, and now she was kneeling in front of her so upright, she really couldn't bear it.

So Zhao Ling helped Cui up and frowned. In any case, as a mother, Cui's heart for Zhao Ruo touched her a little. Moreover, although she could be said to have abused the original owner of this body in every possible way, she still had the grace of nurturing her in name, and she couldn't do too much.

She pondered for a while, instructed Luzhu to take out a small porcelain bottle from the room, and then took out a pen and ink to write a prescription and handed it to Mrs. Cui.

"The medicine in this bottle is applied externally three times a day, and the medicine in this prescription is taken orally three times a day, which can treat traumatic ulcers and infections. As for how to send this medicine to Prince Rong's mansion, the mother should find a way by herself."

This prescription was formulated by her according to Old Man Duan's medical book, and it must be extremely effective. For Zhao Ruo, she told herself that she had done her best.

Since it was Meng Yuan's orchestration to bring down Prince Rong's mansion, how could she go to Prince Rong's mansion at such a time.

Seeing the back of Mrs Cui staggering away with the medicine, Lu Zhu had an indignant expression on her face.

"Hmph, this is called self-inflicted suffering. If the second young lady is not thinking about harming our young lady, how could she end up like that? Miss, you are too soft-hearted, why would you give her such a good medicine?"

Zhao Ling smiled indifferently. Why do this? In fact, it was just for her peace of mind.

She didn't care about other people's opinions, the important thing was to have a clear conscience in everything.

As for what would happen to Zhao Ruo in the future, it was not something she cared about.

Moreover, she didn't have time to pay attention to Zhao Ruo anymore. Because a few days later, there was a big case in the capital.

***

In Guanjia Village, a suburb outside the city, many abandoned corpses of children were found.

Guanjia Village was an ancient village with a long history, located in the western suburbs of Shengjing City. The village was not large, with about two hundred households, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with simple folk customs and no competition with the world.

But in the early morning of that day, before dawn, an exclamation came from a long-abandoned Guandi Temple outside the village, breaking the tranquility of Guanjia Village.

When the nearby villagers were awakened by the sound of the call, and when they rushed to the Guandi Temple, they were all shocked by the scene that they screamed without exception.

The corpses of five children were lying in the corners of the temple, and what was even more cruel and terrifying was that the eyes of these children were dug out, leaving only two holes full of blood. It was precisely because of this that the faces were bloody, and they looked extremely terrifying.

The old village chief of Guanjia Village was so frightened that he almost fainted when he saw this scene.

Guanjia Village was under the jurisdiction of the capital of Dasheng dynasty. Now that such a big case had occurred, it was natural that it should be reported to the governor of Kyoto prefecture first.

The governor of Kyoto, Zhu Deng, received the report and felt that the situation was serious. He immediately rushed to the scene of the crime and reported the case to the Ministry of Justice.

After Lu Ziqing received the report from the Kyoto Prefecture, he couldn't sit still.

After taking up the post of Minister of Punishment, Lu Ziqing was obviously more busy. However, he is used to doing it himself. If he encountered some difficult or important cases, he would usually go out in person.

In this case of child abandonment, the mass murderer's method was extremely cruel, and such a vicious case happened at the feet of the emperor, of course Lu Ziqing had to go out in person.

Before leaving, he did not forget to send Zhan Zhao to invite Zhao Ling out of the Xuanwang palace.
