Time Travel Female Queen, Legend of Medicine Saint

After she pulled off the golden needle, the old man slowly woke up. He raised his sleepy eyes and looked at the woman in front of him, "Who are you?"

Seeing that he had woken up, the prefect rushed forward and held his hand, "Father, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"

The old man shook his head and said, "What's wrong? I'm just a little tired and want to sleep. Have you finished watching the show? Achang helped me up."

"Old gentleman, are you awake? You scared me to death just now." Achang looked at the old man worriedly. Fortunately, okay, this woman's medical skills are much better than those of the doctors in the mansion. "Fortunately, Miss Jiang's Your medical skills are good, and you will wake up with just one needle prick, but that Shi Chengzheng is so bad that he actually gave Laojun a poisonous scarf."

"Shut up." The eunuch glared at Achang, "Father, you're okay. The child can rest assured. The guests in the front courtyard haven't left yet, so I went to greet them first. Miss Jiang also went with me."

Although Jiang Qingchen saved the old man, she still couldn't prove that she was innocent. Maybe acupuncture was the antidote to this medicine. The prefect had been in the officialdom for so many years, how could he trust a stranger so easily.

She would have to go to trial to determine who was the real culprit.

Shi Chengzheng, Duyan, and Jiang Qingchen were kneeling in the meeting hall. The guests had gone back, and now only Cheng Wei and Chang Shi were here to assist the prefect in reviewing the case.

The prefect sat on the main seat. He looked at the three people below him majestically, "Shi Chengzheng, do you know your guilt?"

Shi Cheng didn't dare to raise his head, "Prefect Mingjian was negligent in his duties and failed to find out the origin of the scarf, which frightened the old gentleman."

"Hmph! You pushed it all away." The prefect said coldly, "Do you know why my father was frightened? It was because the scarf was poisonous! Fortunately, Miss Jiang has superb medical skills, otherwise my father would..."

At this point the prefect suddenly stopped. He turned his head and looked at Jiang Qingchen, "Miss Jiang..."

"Sir, there is no need to thank me." Jiang Qingchen said calmly, "I only saved people out of my heart."

"Original intention?" The prefect repeated these two words, "Everyone present saw you giving Lao Junye acupuncture. You used acupuncture to force the poison out of his body. Do you have any evidence to prove that you Isn’t acupuncture the antidote?”

"This..." Jiang Qingchen hesitated, but immediately reacted, "If I was the one who poisoned him, what motive could I have to harm him? Why should I save him? Your Excellency, you are wise!"

She spoke calmly and carefully. If she said one wrong word at this time, her head might move.

At this time, One Eye also recognized Jiang Qingchen. Did this stinky woman really follow him to Yong'an City? "Witch, you have no identity, how did you sneak into the prefect's mansion? There must be some ulterior secret."

"One-eye, oh, Zhang Pishi, tell me, a few days ago, you were the second-in-command on Jigong Mountain, how come you became the chief guard here in the blink of an eye for a few months? You are a bandit, but you deceived the court. What crime should be committed?"

When Shi Chengzheng heard this, he felt frightened. She regretted why her heart was so soft. When she saw the silver foxtail scarf Duyan gave her, her eyes widened. Duyan agreed to whatever she asked.

How can a bandit be the chief of the guard? Now he is fine. He has only been on duty for a few days, and something so big has happened. If One-Eye's false identity is discovered by the prefect, can he still save his head?

Collusion between officials and gangsters is a serious crime. Wrong is already wrong. You can only make mistakes when you are wrong. She stared at Jiang Qingchen and said sternly, "Where do you come from? You are such a cunning person. You are talking nonsense. There are many people like him in the world. You dare to slander just by opening your mouth." People in the imperial court, if you dare to talk nonsense again, be careful about your life."

The prefect frowned after hearing this, "Miss Jiang, you said that Zhang Pi is actually a bandit from Jigong Mountain. Do you have any evidence?" she asked coldly.

Jiang Qingchen shook his head. "Everyone in Jigong Mountain can testify."

"Jigong Mountain?" The prefect sneered. "Is it possible for me to go to Jigong Mountain to catch a bandit to testify?"

One Eye breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It seems that Jiang Qingchen has no conclusive evidence. So she continued, "Sir, Miss Jiang is slandering me. I have never been a bandit. I have been the guard chief for several months."

"Really? The second boss on Jigong Mountain was raised by Gou's father." Jiang Qingchen said coldly. "If you are not a bandit, tell me where your scarf came from and which relative hunted it, and ask the prefect to send someone to verify it."

Duyan was at a loss for words. She had been alone for more than ten years, and she didn't know who else in her hometown knew how to hunt. Moreover, hunting a silver fox was a new thing, and people from all over the country would know about it.

If you really want to send someone to investigate, the lies you told before will be revealed.

"You..." She was so angry that she couldn't speak. It seems that we need to find a way to get rid of this woman.

The prefect frowned after hearing this. He felt that the case was getting more and more complicated. Everyone must be arrested and interrogated to know the truth.

If Shi Chengzheng really dared to let a bandit serve as the chief guard of the city gate, if word spread, it would be very detrimental to the court's reputation.

Such a thing would chill the hearts of those who were loyal to the imperial court. She stared at Shi Chengzheng, a man with inverted triangle eyes who really didn't look like a good person.

She must check One Eye's identity and send someone to her hometown to see if any of her relatives had actually hunted silver foxes.

She shouted to the door, "Come here. Take Miss Jiang and Zhang Pishi down to me and lock them up until they are arraigned."

Shi Chengzheng was kneeling there without uttering a word. She originally just wanted to please the eunuch, but she didn't expect that she would get into trouble instead. She lowered her head and stared at the ground quietly, with many thoughts in her mind.

Seeing that the others had left, the prefect stared at Shi Chengzheng coldly again, "I'll ask you again, is Zhang Pishi a real bandit? Think it through for me before you answer. This is your last chance. I just want Send someone to her hometown and they will know the truth.”

Shi Chengzheng's heart tightened, she knew that what the prefect said was true. She looked up at the prefect, feeling conflicted. She knew that if she told the truth, she might be punished;

But if she continues to hide it, her end may be even worse once the prefect finds out the truth.

Finally, Shi Chengzheng made up his mind. She took a deep breath and said, "

"Master Taishou, please forgive me. I just want this scarf to be given to Mr. Lao Jun as a birthday gift. It is indeed a rare treasure, but the one-eyed man said that he would be the chief of the guard. If I don't agree, she will destroy the scarf, and she will also He wouldn't give it to me. I was in a hurry at that time, so I could only agree to her."

In fact, Duyan threatened her with the letters she had exchanged between the two of them over the years. If Shi Chengzheng did not agree to let Duyan be the guard chief, she would publish the letter to the Yamen.

When the time comes, Shi Chengzheng will be rewarded. Shi Chengzheng can no longer get rid of the threat of the one-eyed man, so he has no choice but to follow her wish.

She was thinking that since Yong'an City was hundreds of miles away from Jigong Mountain, no one would know that Du Yan was a bandit before. Unexpectedly, the secret was exposed within a few days, and the witness went directly to the prefect's mansion.

The prefect was silent for a moment after hearing this. She took a deep look at Shi Chengzheng, and then said, "You are so confused. How can you let bandits guard the city gate? What is the use of your brain?"
