Black Lotus Concubine's Case-solving Notes

Finally died.

Nanny Liu watched the last bubbles in the water gradually disappear and felt extremely happy. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard voices of conversation coming from the bamboo forest.

How could someone come here at this time and place? Aunt Liu was startled and subconsciously glanced in the direction of the person.

I saw a group of noble ladies in gorgeous clothes, being led by a maid, walking towards me from the other end of the bamboo forest. The noble ladies were led by the woman in a deep blue brocade dress in front. The leading woman had her hair combed neatly into a bun and a golden belt around her waist, looking very wealthy.

It was Princess Nancheng, Xu Ying, the legitimate daughter of Prince Ruyang, who had just gotten married.

Why is it her? !

Matron Liu was shocked. The Princess of Nancheng was a well-known person who stood up for justice and always wanted to get to the bottom of things. If this matter fell into her hands, she would definitely not end up well. Matron Liu did not even bother to see whether Xie Lanzhao was dead or not, and ran to the other side of the bamboo forest.

But before she ran out of sight of those people, she heard the little maid leading the way suddenly shout: "Oh my God! Someone fell into the water! Someone fell into the water!"

Aunt Liu’s scalp exploded!

"There's a figure running!" the little girl shouted again.

Matron Liu only felt that the voice sounded somewhat familiar, but now was not the time to care about such things. Soon, there were many chaotic footsteps behind her, and Matron Liu was frightened out of her wits!

The footsteps were getting closer and closer!

The next second, he saw a flash of knife before his eyes, and two knives were crossed on his neck, making it impossible for him to escape.

Nanny Liu was thrown to the ground like a dead pig, grimacing in pain.

"You are so bold and unruly! How dare you commit a crime in public! I think you are tired of living!"

A stern female voice came into her ears. Madam Liu was startled and quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your servant greets the Princess of Nancheng!"

Xu Ying snorted coldly: "It's embarrassing for you to recognize me!"

Only then did Madam Liu have time to glance around. Several noble ladies were standing together, pointing and talking at her, while the leader, Princess Nancheng, had been helped to sit on a small table. Her belly was slightly bulging, indicating that she was already more than seven months pregnant.

Standing on both sides of her were guards dressed in black and carrying swords. It was them who had just grabbed her neck and carried her over.

Next to her, a maid was kneeling with her back to her. Next to the maid was Xie Lanzhao, who had just been pulled out of the water. Her eyes were closed and her face was pale, and it was unclear whether she was dead or alive.

"Ninth Miss! Ninth Miss! Wake up!" the little maid cried.

She was actually a young lady from the Xie family. Xu Ying's face darkened and she pointed at Madam Liu and said, "How dare you be so bold as to kill your master! This is a capital crime! Someone, come here!"

"Wait!" Madam Liu hurriedly said, "Princess! You have wronged me! Even if you gave me ten times the courage, I would not dare to murder you! Miss Nine fell into the water by herself!"

"Falling into the water? I just called you, why are you running!"

Madam Liu's eyes rolled as she said, "I saw Miss Nine fall into the water! I was in a hurry to call for help!"

The ladies looked at each other, unable to tell whether this was true or not. Xu Ying was also a little embarrassed. Indeed, at that time, Miss Xie Jiu had already fallen into the water, and this nanny was in a panic. It was possible to say that she was fleeing for fear of crime, or that she was seeking help.

At this moment, the little maid suddenly called out, "Princess! Our daughter is dying! If anything happens to our daughter, how can I explain to the Prime Minister?"

This sentence is like an epiphany.

The drowned woman was from the Xie family, and the nanny was also the manager of the Xie family. The prime minister should make the decision on right and wrong, so why should she interfere? Xu Ying immediately gave an order: "Come here, find a doctor as quickly as possible, and then go to the front hall to invite the prime minister over!"

Fortunately, among those who came to celebrate the old lady's birthday was a court physician. Not long after, an old man in official uniform and carrying a medicine box came hurriedly, followed by Prime Minister Xie Qian, Madam Meng, and a group of enthusiastic ladies who had followed spontaneously after hearing that a murder had occurred, and that it might be a case of a slave killing his master.

Imperial physician Jiang put the medicine box on the ground.

The little maid kowtowed to him and cried, "Master Jiang! You must save our girl, Master!"

Jiang Shi had a troubled look on his face. It had been a while since he fell into the water. If it was an ordinary family, it would be fine, but he heard that this was the concubine of the Xie family. If he failed to save her...

Xie Qian seemed to see his hesitation and said again and again: "Master, just treat him. The rest depends on the child's luck."

Jiang felt relieved and turned over Xie Lanzhao's eyelids, only to see that the girl's eyes were rolled up, which was indeed a sign of coma. He did not dare to delay and opened the medicine box and took out the silver needle. Just as he was about to inject the needle into the other party's head, the needle had just entered the end of the hair and had not yet pierced it with force when he heard a "wow" sound.

Xie Lanzhao, who was lying on the ground, turned sideways and spat out a mouthful of water, which just happened to spray on the imperial physician's face. Then his confused eyes gradually became clear.

Drops of water dripped down Jiang's carefully groomed beard, and Jiang was stunned.

The little maid immediately raised her voice and said, "Master Jiang, you have brought back the dead with your magic hands! I bow to you, Master Jiang! I bow to you, Master Jiang!"

Jiang: “…”

But he didn't do anything.

From everyone's perspective, they only saw that the person woke up as soon as Jiang's needle was inserted, and because of the little maid's words that the person woke up, everyone praised her for her miraculous healing skill.

"Master Jiang's medical skills are truly superb!"

"Master Jiang is the living Hua Tuo! A blessing to all the people!"

Even Xie Lanzhao, who had just woken up from a coma, was supported by a little maid and bowed to him, saying, "Thank you, Lord Jiang. Lord Jiang has given me a new life!"

Lord Jiang couldn't help feeling lost in the midst of all the praise. He coughed lightly and said, "You're too polite, Miss Ninth. I'm just doing my duty." He accepted all the praise and credit.

Now that the victim has woken up, it is time to find out the reason.

Xu Ying then said, "Ninth Miss, when you fell into the water just now, this old woman said she was going to find someone to save you, is that right?"

Feng Jia's eyes slowly turned to Madam Liu who was being pressed down by the crowd, as if she was reminiscing.

Then his eyes lit up, as if he remembered something, and he pointed at Madam Liu and said, "It's her, she..."

"Zhao'er!" A majestic voice interrupted her.

Prime Minister Xie's face was full of emotion, and he presided over the situation and said, "Since he is awake, whether it is a wicked servant bullying his master or a mistaken fall into the water, we will investigate it later. The most important thing today is your grandmother's birthday banquet, and there are many distinguished guests waiting in the hall."

The implication was to tell Feng Jia that family disgrace should not be made public, and no matter what the outcome of this case was, the reputation of the Xie family must not be tarnished and made a laughing stock of by outsiders.

As soon as Xie Qian finished speaking, several servants made a move to hold Feng Jia and drag her to the back hall. Madam Liu's originally dead eyes brightened up a bit. As long as the Xie family handled the matter themselves, she would have plenty of ways to get away with it. At worst, she could ask the Madam for mercy and turn a big thing into a small one.

Feng Jia naturally knew that if she was really dragged down, she would definitely lose this game.

But she must not lose.

"Father!"

The weak and numb Ninth Miss, who was lying on the ground, suddenly burst out with strength from nowhere and pushed away the servants who came to take her. She knelt at Xie Qian's feet, knocked her head to the ground, and shouted, "Father, please help me!"

The voice was shrill, as if the person had suffered a great injustice.

The people who were about to leave stopped in their tracks and looked at each other. Then they all cast their eyes on Prime Minister Xie, who was wearing a red official uniform, with different expressions.

There was not much change on Xie Qian's face, but the fingers gathered in his sleeves had gradually clenched into fists.

He originally thought that his daughter was smart and had a long-term vision. She would understand with just a little advice, and he would deal with the case fairly even if the trial was postponed. But why didn't she understand this and had to hold on to it in front of so many people?

At this moment, a cold light flashed in Prime Minister Xie's eyes.

For the first time, he had the urge to kill this concubine.
