"If Madam doesn't believe it, you can go out and ask around. Who doesn't know that I have been in this medical center for so many years." The doctor was still stubborn and unwilling to admit it.
Yao Shu lost her patience and turned the dagger towards the back of his hand.
A bloodstain suddenly appeared on the doctor's hand, and the blood slowly flowed down his fingertips.
The doctor looked at his wounds blankly and realized that Yao Shu was not a simple person.
He immediately begged for mercy: "Madam, please spare your life. Please spare your life, madam. I will say, I will say anything."
Next, in the doctor's narration, Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan knew that he was sent by the county magistrate.
He didn't know why the county magistrate knew about Yao Shu's poisoning earlier, so he could only obey the magistrate's words.
After the county magistrate allowed him to see Yao Shu, he simply stated that she had been poisoned, but there was no need to say more.
The county magistrate wanted to use this opportunity to force Yao Shu to plead with the doctor, so that he could fall into the trap prepared by the magistrate in advance.
I didn't expect the county magistrate to be so vicious. Before he formally met Yao Shu, he had already tried every means to trick the Shen family.
"What is going on? Where is your county magistrate taking me to see him now?"
Yao Shu also gradually lost her patience. When she was angry, she noticed that the toxins in her body had slowly faded away.
She looked at her wrist, and sure enough there were no black veins. Although she still didn't know what was going on, she was sure that the poison in her body was not serious.
The doctor's hands kept trembling, and he pointed at the dagger in Yao Shu's hand and motioned for her to take the dagger back.
After Yao Shu took the dagger back, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pointed to the backyard of the medical center.
"Our Lord County Magistrate is waiting for you two in the backyard of the hospital. I will go in and inform you."
The doctor crawled straight in and walked in, as if he was moving reinforcements.
Shen Nanshan was extremely angry: "A county magistrate who has never met us dares to treat us like this. How audacious!"
"The county magistrate is the most powerful person in this town. It can be said that he covers the sky with one hand. If he wants the people to do something, he will naturally have more say than the officials from the court." Yao Shu explained softly.
This is also the most troublesome problem of the current official system. In many cases, people trust local officials more.
To be disrespectful, the people even thought that their local officials were the emperor.
As for the officials sent by the imperial court, they would never be convinced unless the emperor came in person.
Soon the doctor returned to the two men: "You two, please let us, the county magistrate, decide to discuss it carefully with you."
When Yao Shu walked in, she found that the man in front of her looked very much like Wang Cheng.
Shen Nanshan was also shocked and subconsciously became on guard.
"You two don't have to be so nervous. I am not Wang Cheng. My name is Wang Feng, and I am Wang Cheng's brother. If you hadn't exposed what Wang Cheng did in the city, I wouldn't have known that he would go so far." Wang Feng pointed to the seat in front of him casually, motioned for the two of them to sit down, and then gently poured tea for them.
Yao Shu didn't know what the county magistrate wanted to do, so she didn't speak in a hurry, but listened to his next words.
The county magistrate pondered for a moment, and then added: "Actually, there is one more thing. I don't know if I should tell you whether the Wang Cheng you took away is not my real brother Wang Cheng."
Yao Shu nodded slightly: "I know that the county magistrate's brother Wang Cheng has been killed on the battlefield."
Wang Feng raised his eyebrows in surprise: "I didn't expect Mrs. Shen to even know about this matter. It can be said that she knows everything like a god."
"This matter is no secret. We heard Wang Cheng's name before when we were in the military camp. Unfortunately, we only heard his name and never saw him."
After Yao Shu said this, she immediately looked up at Wang Feng.
There was a sense of oppression in her eyes, as if Wang Feng would be executed on the spot in the next second.
Such a look made Wang Feng inevitably feel timid. He did not expect that a woman could be so powerful.
"Madam, you don't have to be so nervous. I did hear some names of madams before. When I saw her today, she was indeed extraordinary. The poison in the madam's body is actually very easy to cure. It is a poison passed down from our ancestors of the Wang family. It is not completely cured yet. It happened, so Madam didn't feel any particular discomfort." After Wang Feng finished speaking, he gently placed the antidote on the table.
Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan also knew that the antidote was not easy to obtain, so they did not react at all.
After a moment, Wang Feng seemed to suddenly react: "It seems that you two have really misunderstood me. I really have no other thoughts. What happened in the medical center this time was just to give you two a test." "
"Bold! We were sent here by the emperor. When will it be your turn to give us a test?" Shen Nanshan became angry. He felt more and more that the person in front of him was not a good person.
He didn't like this face at all, and he was even more furious when he heard what Wang Feng said.
"Mr. Shen, there's no need to be so excited. I know what I'm saying is hard for you two to understand for a while. In fact, many officials have come before you, and they all want to go to the Western Regions. But I don't know what happened. Whatever happened, they were killed one after another on the way to the Western Region." After Wang Feng said this, the expression on his face suddenly became worried.
He thought for a moment, as if he didn't know what to say next.
He looked at the serious looks of Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan, and sighed softly: "Actually, it doesn't hurt to tell you about this matter, but I don't know if you can solve it. If you can't solve it, wouldn't it be for your sake?" It adds to worries and affects the road ahead."
"Don't worry, we can still afford it."
Yao Shu also lowered her tone and looked at Wang Feng.
"Actually, most of the officials who went to the Western Regions died outside my town, which inevitably made the emperor and other officials suspicious of me. I don't know why such a thing happened. The most important thing now is to clean up My suspicion is to find the real murderer." After Wang Feng finished speaking, he looked at the two people sincerely.
He didn't say more, but Yao Shu could already feel the pleading in his words.
"Are you worried that we will also be killed, or are you worried that we will not help you?"
The county magistrate was stunned, never expecting that Yao Shu would ask back.
He thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Both. I hope you can spend time in my town safely, and I also hope you can help me find the murderer to avoid harming other officials in the future."
