Volume 2 – Growth Chapter 52 – The Gains Outweigh the Losses
The old door was pushed open, and the shaft turned to make a "creaking" sound.
A ray of light shot into the dim room, and Wu Ming and Zhang Danshen couldn't help but look towards the door.
"Get in!"
Then, they saw that Li Changfeng was escorted in and tied to another beam, and both of them were shocked.
"Senior?!" Zhang Danshen exclaimed.
"Humph! Sure enough, it's a gang! Don't worry, I'll escort you to the government tomorrow, and they'll go to the prison to catch up!"
The two servants tied Li Changfeng to the girder, snorted coldly, and then closed the door of the firewood room again.
"Senior, what the hell is going on?!"
After the two servants left, Zhang Danshen asked again.
Li Changfeng smiled: "Alas, if your skills are not as good as others, you will be arrested!" By the way, what's going on with the two of you? How can a good doctor, in the mouth of the people of Xue Mansion, become a heinous poison doctor? ”
"Don't say it, Senior Wu and I were framed!" Zhang Danshen sighed and lowered his head like a defeated rooster.
"What the hell is going on?"
Facing Li Changfeng's questioning, Wu Ming on the side told what happened 1510.
After listening to this, Li Changfeng said categorically: "Needless to say, the one who framed you must be the dog thief surnamed Wu!" The imperial court is really rotten to the bone, and such a person is also worthy of being a doctor?!"
Zhang Danshen heard the word "Taiyi" and couldn't help but think of his father. How can his father still be alive, then the imperial doctor must be much clearer, right? At least not as smoky as it is now.
"By the way, why are you here? Why did they arrest you? ”
Li Changfeng grinned and said, "When I mention your name, people will design to arrest me, and they will say that we are accomplices and want to murder the villain of Grand Prince Xue." ”
"Don't be hippie! Why are you looking for us? Wu Ming asked.
"Alright! No kidding! I came to you because the Li family and the Cui family sent people to attack last night, and Wu Kang and Guan Shouting were both injured!"
Immediately, Li Changfeng told the two of them everything about last night.
"Then how are Wu Kang and Uncle Guan now? And Xiaoyan, she's not hurt, is she? When Zhang Danshen heard that everyone had been attacked, he hurriedly asked about everyone's safety.
"You stinky boy, it's all like this, and you still care about the little girl! Rest assured! There is no worry about his life for the time being, but Shouting's injury is a bit serious, and it hurts his heart.
Lang Zhong on Baifeng Street can't deal with it, so I came to Xue Mansion to look for the two of you, but I didn't expect that the two of you were not having a good time, and you were framed and locked up in a small firewood room!" Li Changfeng quipped.
The two of them were relieved to learn that everyone was fine.
"Alas! Senior, now that you are trapped here with us, what about Uncle Guan's injuries? ”
"Yes! The first priority is to find a way to get out! After healing Shouting's injury, I will come to Wuliang to confront him!"
When Li Changfeng heard this, he grinned and said, "You don't really think that we can't escape, do you?" ”
When Wu Ming and Zhang Danshen heard this, they couldn't help but glance at each other, and looked at Li Changfeng with questions on their faces.
Li Changfeng smiled and said, "You guys are underestimating me too much!" Look at it!"
As soon as the words fell, Li Changfeng used his internal force, and the rope on his body broke with a "snap".
"Cut! It's just this thing, it's hard to tie up pigs, and you still want to trap the old man?! The reason why I was caught by them is to rescue you!" Li Changfeng moved his hands and feet, and shook his head disdainfully.
Wu Ming and Zhang Danshen on the side, after listening to Li Changfeng's words, couldn't help but have black lines on their faces.
Li Changfeng also reacted, and hurriedly waved his hand at the two of them and said: "The old man is not targeting anyone, the old man is just talking, don't sit down!" The old man is here to save you!"
Li Changfeng said, and was about to step forward to untie Zhang Dan to participate in Wu Ming, but was suddenly stopped by Zhang Danshen.
"Senior, wait a minute, don't solve it yet!"
"What? You're still tied up and addicted?!" When Li Changfeng heard this, he raised his eyebrows and quipped.
"No, senior! We can't just leave!" Zhang Danshen said.
"Why?"
"Senior, you think, Xue Gongzi's life is still in Wu Liang's hands! If we just go! Then Uliang's plan has succeeded!
When the time comes, Wu Liang will not only be able to poison Xue Gongzi to death, but also justifiably put the blame on me and the old-timers!
We can't joke with Xue Gongzi's life, let alone let people like Wu Liang get away with it! If Uliang is allowed to get away with it, then he will harm more people!"
Li Changfeng and Wu Ming immediately nodded in agreement.
"What then? You can't just leave Shouting's injury alone, right? Li Changfeng said.
Zhang Danshen pondered for a while and said, "I have a way to take care of both ends!"
If Uliang is to be brought to justice, then this play must continue! Now that the new county guard is dead, there will be a new official coming up, and this process will take at least three days!
As long as we get the evidence that proves our innocence within these three days, then we can bring Uliang to justice!"
Now the people of the Xue family hate us to the core. Except for the delivery of food, basically no one cares about us, this is our best chance!
The two seniors can sneak out at other times and go to Baifeng Street to treat Uncle Guan's injuries, and then rush back when it's time to eat!
At the same time, Senior Li can also take this opportunity to help us get evidence of Wuliang's poisoning! ”
"Good way!"
"Stinky boy! That's smart! What do you say, the old man listens to you this time!"
As soon as Zhang Danshen came out with this plan, he was immediately praised by the two old men. Soon, the three of them decided on a specific plan.
"Alright, old-timer, you can untie us quickly! After standing for a day and a night, my legs are numb!"
"Stinky boy!"
…………
The sky is clear, and the autumn sun is still hot.
In the firewood room of the Xue family, Li Changfeng got on the beam, gently uncovered the tiles above his head, and slowly poked his head out. Who knows, the firewood house has fallen into disrepair, and the tiles are extremely dilapidated.
Li Changfeng had just poked his head out, and several tiles couldn't support it, and suddenly fell from the eaves!
The sound of tiles falling to the ground alarmed the guards outside the door. The family hurriedly pushed the door in, Li Changfeng scolded in a low voice, and had to jump on the eaves and leave alone.
When the family came to the house, they saw Li Changfeng escaping from the eaves, but fortunately, Wu Ming and Zhang Danshen were still in the house.
The family hurriedly told Master Xue the news, and after Master Xue heard about it, he ordered Zhang Dan to participate in Wu Ming to be moved to another place, and the Yan family took care of it, so as to prevent Li Changfeng from killing the horse gun and then rescue the two of them.
……
Let's say that after Li Changfeng escaped from Xue's house, he ran all the way to Baifeng Street and came to the medical hall.
Seeing that he came back alone, Feng Fei hurriedly inquired about the situation. Li Changfeng told everyone that Zhang Danshen and the others were framed and imprisoned in the mansion. When the crowd heard this, they were also filled with righteous indignation.
"So what's next?" Feng Fei asked.
Li Changfeng told a few people about Zhang Danshen's strategy.
"Salvia has a good plan, it's all because I escaped and was discovered! The Xue family will inevitably transfer the two of them to other places to be detained! The top priority is to find evidence to prove the innocence of the two of them!"
Regarding the discovery of his escape, Li Changfeng was a little remorseful.
"Seniors don't blame themselves, if you want both parties to be saved, you can only find evidence to prove that the two of them are innocent! It's just that it has to be fast!" Feng Peng saw Li Changfeng's remorse, and hurriedly opened his mouth to persuade.
"Hmmm! Not only do we have to save Uncle Guan, but we can't let Xue Gongzi be poisoned! I just don't know how long Uncle Guan can last!"
Wu Kang on the side also expressed his opinion, but he couldn't help but worry about Guan Shouting in his heart.
"Rest assured! Although the medical skills are a little clumsy and cannot cure Guan Yishi, in a short period of time, Guan Yishi's injuries will not deteriorate, which can still be done in Xia!"
"Dare to ask how long can the seniors be stable?"
"Judging by the current situation, five days is not a big problem! I'm afraid the limit is seven days! Seven days later, there's nothing I can do!"
Lang Zhong's words undoubtedly reassured everyone.
"Now that several of us are injured, this matter can only be entrusted to you, the senior!" Feng Feng looked at Li Changfeng and said.
"Five days is enough! The old man swore that he would get evidence to prove the innocence of the two of them within three days! Let the two of them walk out of the Xue Mansion intact and openly."
Li Changfeng was remorseful for being found out about escaping and ruining the opportunity, and after listening to Feng Peng's words, he immediately made an oath.
…………
Xue Mansion.
Master Xue looked at his son, who was lying on the bed, getting thinner and thinner, and his heart was full of grief.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
Xue Gongzi, who was unconscious, coughed violently again, and blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. The subordinate on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, patting his back while catching the spit blood with a basin.
Looking at the dirty blood in the basin and the son who didn't get better on the bed, Master Xue couldn't help but ask with tears in his eyes: "This is the first time!" How do you cough up so much blood? ”
"Master of the Qi family, this is the fifth time that the son has coughed up blood! Two more than last night!"
Standing behind him, the butler who never left an inch, looked at the unconscious son on the bed, and the old man who was full of tears, and his voice was a little choked.
"It's two more than yesterday, isn't the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Wu ineffective?" Master Xue asked.
"Meet Master Xue!"
At this moment, Wu Liang suddenly came in from outside the door with his little apprentice.
"Imperial Doctor! In the past few days, why is the child coughing up blood? When Master Xue saw Wu Liang coming, he hurriedly asked.
Wu Liang said with a sad face: "Master Xue, because the son has taken a large amount of aconite and ginger, his body is extremely hot. I gave Childe a prescription to clear the heat, and one hot and one cold fought against Childe in his body, so Childe vomited blood!"
"In that case, why is the dog's complexion worse than in the past few days?"
"Alas! It's all to blame on those two poison doctors! Those two poison doctors are really vicious, and they give Childe a lot of aconite! I didn't dare to increase the dose, so Childe's health is getting worse and worse!" Wu Liang sighed, his face full of regret.
When Master Xue heard this, his heart was full of pain and hatred. Seeing this, the housekeeper on the side was afraid that he would be too sad, so he had to help Master Xue back to the room to rest.
Wu Liang watched the backs of the two leave, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.
