Time Travel Female Queen, Legend of Medicine Saint
Chapter 68 Jiang Qingchen drank poisonous wine
Shi Chengzheng, this woman who gradually rose to prominence under the protection of the prefect, was standing in the deserted corridor, with the prefect's orders still echoing in her ears.
There were mixed feelings in her heart, including fear of the unknown and awe of power.
Shi Chengzheng knew clearly that her position depended entirely on the support of the prefect.
Once something happens to her, those covetous colleagues will definitely take the opportunity to attack and link her with the bandits to weaken the prefect's power.
At that time, the prefect will be like fish on the chopping board and can only be slaughtered by others. This delicate balance makes it impossible for the prefect to stay out of the matter.
The eunuch's order was cold and direct: "The two people in the prison must die. When the time comes, they will be said to have committed suicide out of fear of crime. You have to do it. It must be done cleanly and neatly, without leaving any clues. It must be completed within three days."
There was no hesitation or pity in the prefect's tone, only absolute control of power and calm judgment of the situation.
The prefect did not punish her, but instead gave her such a confidential task. This meant that she and the prefect were a grasshopper on the same rope.
If she successfully carries out this mission, she will completely get rid of her association with the bandits. Once those two people are dead, no one will attack her and the prefect with the collusion between officials and bandits.
At this moment, Jiang Qingchen was in prison, and he was a little scared. The light here was dim and the smell was unpleasant. Could it be that he was going to die in this prison like this?
I thought that by putting the blame on Duyan, I could get rid of her with the help of the prefect, but I didn't expect that I would be thrown into prison.
Even if the eunuch later finds out that One Eye is really a bandit from Jigong Mountain, he may not be able to wait for that day.
Based on her many years of experience watching TV dramas, there will probably be someone behind the scenes who is behind the scenes.
The scarf given by Shi Chengzheng poisoned Mr. Lao Jun. Why was she okay?
Just as she was thinking about it, the cell door creaked open, and Shi Cheng came in carrying a vegetable basket.
Oh my god, Jiang Qingchen thought to himself, this is really what you want. Shi Chengzheng and Duyan are in the same group. If he testifies against Duyan, Shi Chengzheng will also be implicated.
Is she here to kill people and silence them now? As long as he is killed, no one will know about the collusion between One-Eye and the official gangsters in Shicheng.
Jiang Qingchen's heart tightened, and she asked in a trembling voice, "Master Shi, what are you doing?"
Shi Chengzheng didn't answer. She stared at Jiang Qingchen coldly, with a kind of indifference and ruthlessness in her eyes.
She put down the vegetable basket and took out two delicious dishes and a bottle of wine.
liqueur?
He has no friendship with Shi Chengzheng at all. What kind of food and wine does she come to bring? Could it be poisonous wine and really want to kill him?
Jiang Qingchen's hair stood on end, "Let's go, I have no appetite."
"Hey, I've lost my appetite this time. How energetic were you when you were testifying against One Eye in the front hall? Who are you? Why did you sneak into the prefect's mansion to commit murder." Shi Cheng said with a serious smile.
It was useless to be afraid at this time. Jiang Qingchen bravely said, "I am just a small villager. The scarf I hunted was robbed by the bandit One Eye on Jigong Mountain. I just saw her entering the prefect's mansion, so I followed her in secretly." Yes, you were almost harmed by her, and you still spoke for her? That person is so sinister, and wanted to harm the prefect’s father with your help, and then you went to pay for it, and she took over your official position. "
Shi Cheng was listening to what she said and pondered for a moment. She had never thought about this relationship. Could it be that the poisoning was really done by One Eye and he wanted to use it to gain power.
Seeing that she was silent, Jiang Qingchen felt that what he said entered her heart.
Then he continued, "This bandit is blind in one eye and is standing there guarding the city. With such obvious features, if not me, someone else will recognize her sooner or later. Her request will destroy you. Moreover, There are two scarves, but she only gave one to you. She kept the other one for her own selfish reasons. Maybe she will have the opportunity to meet a bigger official that day, and maybe she will climb on you. For such a wealthy person, Keeping it is a disaster. Fortunately, you really believed in her and let a bandit become the chief guard of the city gate just for a scarf of unknown origin..."
"Hahaha, you're right. You and she are both wealthy people and can't stay. Then we can keep you company on the road to Huangquan. Come and drink this glass of wine and you won't have any worries." Shi Chengzheng said , laid out the food and poured a glass of wine, "Ms. Jiang, please."
Oh my god, this man is so poisonous. Jiang Qingchen looked at the glass of wine, his heart pounding. Is this Shi Chengzheng not only going to poison himself, but also poison One Eye?
"I don't want to drink, I don't want to die, I haven't enjoyed life yet, I don't want to drink..." Jiang Qingchen held his head and shrank into the corner of the cell. Did he really want to die in this prison?
In books and on TV, aren’t there people who persist until the end and someone comes to save them?
No, I just don’t drink. If I can delay it for a while, maybe there will be a turn for the better.
She looked towards the cell door from time to time, hoping that someone would come to save her soon.
Shi Cheng was holding a wine glass and walked up to Jiang Qingchen with a sneer on his face. She looked at Jiang Qingchen's fearful eyes, and felt a sense of pleasure in her heart.
"What are you looking at? Do you still expect someone to come to save you? This is the Yamen Prison. You, a person with no foundation in Yong'an City, will someone come to save you? Dream on, drink it quickly." Shi Chengzheng said, He grabbed Jiang Qingchen's neck and poured the poisonous wine into Jiang Qingchen's mouth.
Jiang Qingchen struggled with all her strength, but Shi Chengzheng was very strong and she couldn't break free.
She felt a cold liquid flow down her throat into her body, which was a harbinger of death.
Her heart was filled with despair and helplessness, and the scene before her eyes began to become blurry.
Shi Chengzheng waved his hand, "Isn't it done? You have to let me do it." She looked at Jiang Qingchen slumped in the corner with a satisfied smile on her face.
Jiang Qingchen sat down weakly against the wall, with all the things in his past life and all the things in the future flashing before his eyes. Is she really going to die after drinking this poisonous wine?
Her heart was filled with reluctance and regret, and she still had so many unfulfilled wishes and dreams.
"There is One Eye next door to accompany you. Don't worry, you will also have a companion on the road to hell. You won't be alone." Shi Chengzheng said as he packed up his things and left.
A government servant walked towards him, and the two of them bumped into each other. Shi Cheng's face sank, and then he saw that it was the old man's personal slave, "What the hell, Achang, why are you in the prison?"
She was still wondering if the prefect had done well in letting Achang supervise her?
"Master Shi, please forgive me, I'm here to invite Doctor Jiang." Achang saw that it was Shi Chengzheng and hurriedly saluted her, "Doctor Jiang, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying? Please come over, Mr. Take a look and follow me."
Jiang Qingchen shook her head. She had already drank poisonous wine and had an attack immediately. How could she still go to see a doctor? She leaned against the wall and closed her eyes.
