And the prefect's wife, it shouldn't be, after all, it's a woman's family, if there is no prefect's guidance, how can she do such a thing.

Thinking of the fact that he had arrested a few people before, he was still in guard, and he was not tortured carefully. He knew that a few of them must have been instructed by officials to do this kind of thing, but there were many officials up and down, big and small, so it was not easy to make judgments.

I've been busy before, so I forgot about them, and when I have time, I must interrogate them properly, maybe these two things will be connected.

After eating, Xie Bai brought the doctor over and brought it to Yueniang.

Yueniang and Xie Bai sat on the upper seat and drank tea, and the doctor knelt on the ground trembling when he saw this, "Gongzi Xie, Miss Fu, I don't know what mistake the grass people made and were brought here." ”

Yueniang took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "You didn't make any mistakes, I just came to ask you about it." Yueniang said, in a light tone.

The doctor sweated nervously, "Just ask, what the grass people know, they will definitely tell the truth." ”

"You are the doctor I personally selected, and you asked me to help me watch the plot of the maids in the mansion making herbs, and also let you supervise, but later...... There is a problem with this herb!" Yueniang's tone was a little more serious, and the doctor was so frightened that she quickly knelt on the ground, "The grass people don't know, the grass people don't know." ”

When ordinary people see the officials and nobles, most of them react like this anyway.

It's just that this doctor has seen her before, and he doesn't have this look, but it's normal, but now it's abnormal. So afraid of her?

There must be a problem.

"The grass people don't know, the grass people have been checking every link according to your instructions, and they don't know what is going wrong. ”

"Won't you tell the truth?"

"There is not a single lie that the grass people say, what is wrong with the herbs, the grass people really don't know. ”

"Oh?" Yueniang raised her eyebrows, "But you are still not well supervised, I originally thought you had discovered something, but I didn't dare to say it under pressure, but now since you admit that there is no problem, it is your problem, because you are not well supervised, so when we were looking for you, you were packing up and preparing to leave?"

The doctor was so frightened that he fell to his knees tremblingly, not knowing what to say.

"No, no, I just have a distant relative who is sick and wants to see him. ”

"Are you going with your family?" asked Yueniang.

"Anyway, everyone has been idle lately, so they went with me. ”

"Well, in that case, you said that you supervised very well in this link, but in the end something went wrong, and it can only be said that it is your responsibility. In this way, now the people outside are making trouble, since you are the culprit in this matter, then hand you over, we can't find the culprit, so we can only let you replace it. After all, this is indeed your fault, who let you fail to supervise effectively? Therefore, you should be responsible for such a big accident. Yueniang still said lightly, but she looked at the doctor's gaze, as if she was looking at a dead person.

When the doctor heard this, he was frightened, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Miss, I really don't know what's going on, this matter has nothing to do with me, and I don't know why this happened. ”

"Then did you find anything suspicious, or did you check the herbs and found something wrong? ," Yueniang asked.

"This ......," the doctor thought about it carefully, "After you left, the prefect's wife said, try to go to the warehouse to get the medicinal materials at the back, because the medicinal materials at the back do not see sunlight and are easy to get wet, so quickly take them out and make pills, and the front of the warehouse does not need to worry, because you can see the sun." Well, that shouldn't be a problem. The doctor said tremblingly.

When Yueniang heard this, her pupils tightened, does this matter really have anything to do with the prefect's wife?

The doctor trembled, he didn't know if this was anything suspicious, he just told Yueniang. Because normally, if we go to the warehouse to get something, it must be that the medicine is taken from the outside to the inside, but she takes it from the inside, which is very inconvenient and troublesome, and it will even destroy the herbs in front of it. With such a hard work and letting the subordinates toss the herbs inside, it is impossible to say that there is no problem at all.

Could it be that this matter has something to do with the prefect's wife?

"Other than that, there is really nothing suspicious, and the grass people don't know if this is a suspicious place, and as long as Miss is not in the mansion, Miss Qin will always come to talk to the prefect's wife, and the two of them are very good. As for the herbs, the herb people have really checked it, and the herbs in the front and the back of this warehouse are only different in size, and the rest are not much different. The doctor said.

"Isn't there really much difference?" Yueniang raised her eyebrows and said: " You must know that you are a doctor, although it is mainly for people to prescribe medicine, but this medicinal material should be more familiar than the prescription shopkeeper, you should know the difference between Poria cocos and Panax notoginseng, they are just the same appearance, if you carefully identify, there is still a big difference, in addition to the size is different, there is also a color, although it looks yellow, but one is darker, the other is lighter, you have not noticed, someone dropped the bag, you also said that you did not neglect your duties?" Yueniang was very angry, but the doctor refused to tell the truth in anger.

Although these medicinal materials may not be able to be identified even if she is there herself, it is really hateful to shirk the excuse like this.

"The grass people know their mistakes, the grass people know their mistakes, they have lived up to your expectations of the grass people, and please atone for the young lady, the grass people are old and young, and they are all waiting for the grass people to go back, please read it on the part of my child who is still young, you will let the grass people go back, the grass people are grateful. ”

"Why, now it's pitiful again, this matter can't be easily let go, if you cooperate well, I can get a light deal on this matter, if you play any tricks, then, not only you, but your children will also be implicated. Yueniang said fiercely.

The doctor didn't seem to expect that Yueniang, who looked soft and weak on the outside, was not like that at all.

I thought it would be enough to say a few soft words, but it seems that the other party is not willing to let him go.

"You, what you tell me to do, I'll do it. ”

"I ask you, why when we found you, you were packing up your things and preparing to leave here, did you do something wrong, you better be honest, don't use the same rhetoric as before, it's useless. ”

"That's right, you gave me some silver taels at that time, and then I left the mansion, who knew that it didn't take some time to spread out that there was a problem with the pill, and I didn't know which program was wrong, for fear that it would implicate me, so I took the family and prepared to leave, but I didn't expect to be brought back by you, Miss. Miss, what the grass people said is true, and there is no lie. ”

Indeed, a person will normally have a sense of crisis, and Yueniang also feels that she is too sensitive, since there are so many people in that mansion doing things, if you have the intention to do bad things, you will definitely avoid them, how can you spend money to let them leave or something.

Although most of the original maids and servants in the prefect's mansion helped when making pills, it means that everyone has no different intentions. Therefore, if you want to change this herb, you will definitely cover your tongue.

"Okay, you can go back first in the next few days, I will send someone to keep an eye on you, if I use you, you will honestly tell today's words, if there is half a lie, I want you to look good. ”

"Yes, yes, grass people. ”

After the doctor left, Xie Bai looked at Yueniang and thought about it, and couldn't help asking, "Do you think this matter will have anything to do with the prefect's wife?" Xie Bai asked.

"I'm not sure if it doesn't matter, or maybe the prefect's wife was instructed. Didn't the prince go outside the city to interrogate those people? It shouldn't be long before news arrives. ”

Xie Bai nodded, "Those people must have suffered a lot." ”

"They deserve it. Yueniang said indignantly.

"Yueniang, I found that you are really different from before. ”

"What's the difference?"

"It's just that it feels different, maybe you will be panicked, anxious, chaotic, and very kind to tolerate others, and even not to pursue it, just to suppress public opinion. And now you can actually do things against public opinion, just to get the truth. And you know very well what you are doing now, Yueniang, I am really more and more impressed with you, from the way you gave advice to the prince at the beginning, to the current appearance, what should I do if I am more and more fascinated by you?" Xie Bai said very seriously, and approached Yueniang little by little, and Yueniang shy avoided.

Puff~

Xie Bai hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled, "But your shy energy hasn't changed." ”

"Do you think that I now have a city government, and it's not simpler than before, right?"

"That's not, you were simple and kind before, but it was easy to get hurt, I like you more now, learn to protect yourself, learn to protect yourself, so you don't have to worry, otherwise my heart is always afraid that something will happen to you, there is danger or something. Xie Bai said.

Yueniang smiled, "As for it, I'm not a porcelain doll, I've learned boxing and kicking for a few days." ”

"Your embroidered pillow. ”

"Why, look down on embroidered pillows. Yueniang knew that in the current situation, force could not solve any problems, so she could only make herself smarter. Xie Bai can protect himself once, twice, but it is impossible for him to be by his side every time he is needed.

After all, he also has his own things to do, and she wants to be a Mrs. Xie who doesn't hold back.

The kind that can match her.

Xie Bai looked at her smiling appearance, his heart melted, and he rubbed her hair, "Leave this matter to me, I have already locked up a few people who instigated it, and the people below are in action, and it won't be a big deal when they are caught." ”

"I want to see it for myself. Yueniang said with her eyes open.

"Don't go, those mobs, it's not good if something happens outside. Xie Bai looked at her worriedly and said.

"It's okay, you go with me, you protect me, what can happen. ”

"Oh well. Xie Bai really had no choice but to take her hand and go with her.

The people who found those places were in a ruined temple with beggars and children and weeds on the ground. There was a man in the middle, surrounded by four or five, and there were small gangs like this on the other two sides. When I got closer, I only heard the man in the middle command: "You just said, if you don't give an explanation for this matter for a long time, are you covering up something, there is no royal law, and no one is in charge?"

Then he turned to another person and said, "You just keep crying, anyway, if something like that, you can just say more and spread more." After saying that, he had several copper plates in his hand, and one for each of them, and then they dispersed, and one after another people came to ask for copper plates.

Because Xie Bai and Yueniang were dressed in disguise, they were both coarse cloth, but no matter how they looked at it, they didn't match here, so it didn't take long for others to notice them.

Xie Bai asked the people around him to drive out all the extra people, leaving only the three people who walked and left a message to send copper plates.

The three of them didn't know what was going on at all, they were a little scared and stupid, and looked at them in a daze, "How many, how many uncles, I don't know what to do?"

"What are you doing?"

"We didn't do anything. ”

"Don't tell the truth yet!" Xie Bai's knife was directly on the neck of one of them, so frightened that the person hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Please also ask a few masters to spare their lives, we are just using people's money to eliminate disasters for others, and we have done nothing." ”

"Spreading rumors, agitating people's hearts, and saying that nothing has been done, so what is it called, let me ask you, who instructed you to do this, if you don't say it, it will kill your dog!" Xie Bai said viciously, and after speaking, he directly slashed at the man's arm, and suddenly his arm was missing, and the person who was in pain screamed.

The other two people were so frightened that they hurriedly kowtowed and said: "It's a woman, with a scarf, she can't see her face clearly, she just said that let's spread the slander of Miss Fu from the capital, and then give us silver taels, saying that this matter can't be exposed, so we thought of such a way, let others say, and then come to get the copper plate, and we will get the money after the matter is completed." Because the other party gave us a lot of money, we were asked to keep making messages until they said stop, and we didn't pass them on. ”

Really!

Yue Niang is not light, and someone wants to harm him like this.

"What else did that man say?" asked Yueniang.

"Let's just say that Miss Fu is a demon girl, and she can't compare to some of Miss Qin's words at all, and then let us say some good things about Miss Qin, and we can get a lot of silver taels. ”

Yueniang smiled, but her smile was a little crazy, "Since that's the case, you can continue to spread the rumors." ”
