Chapter Ninety-Four: Grief, Confession of Truth
Yuan Zhanxun used to be the No. 1 cold and beautiful man in Liaojing, although he was frail, he was handsome and chic, and he had his own bearing. But now, a pair of legs are wasted, so thin that they are out of shape, and they are breathless when they say a word, coughing and wheezing.
But the more he did, the more contagious his words became. Some people even immediately said that they would go with him to defend their families and the country.
"He's pretty good at learning and selling!" Feng Guowu leaned against the door frame of the inner room and muttered dissatisfiedly.
Hua Wusi only smiled faintly: "The Caomu Hall was established, and the money he donated has been more than 20,000 taels. It's been done, why don't you say it?! Are you still waiting for someone to stab you in the back and eat a dumb loss?! β
"Big brother, I didn't contribute less money and effort?"
"Yes, yes, you're good! Big brother accepts your love! β
"I don't want you to admit it, I can't get used to him!"
Seeing Feng Guowu like a three-year-old baby who wants to fight for her mother's hug, she only thinks it's funny.
But as Yuan Zhanxun's murder of the girl was shouted out, the atmosphere changed suddenly.
Originally, there were rumors that the woman approached King Ding, and she was either killed or injured. Fortunately, over the years, the nobles have not really died. This thing is fading.
But at this moment, people are saying that they have names and surnames, and most of them are small families, and there are even peasant girls, who are obviously hungry. It caused an uproar.
"Yuan Zhanxun"'s face turned two points whiter, and Yuan's left knuckle was pinched and gurgling.
"Play with me and play the rest, look for death!"
Her eyes stood and her face sank, and she stroked her beard and walked forward. He coughed and said in a low voice, "Next!" β
The man at the head of the team was so frightened and curious that he didn't see her at all, and was pushed by the one from behind, and was going to theorize. The platoon was noisy again, covering up several voices of anxious medical treatment. "Yuan Zhanxun" was even more uncontrollable wheezing and coughing.
She stood up again and walked over to him with a calm face. "King Ding's here to make trouble?"
"Yuan Zhanxun" was uncomfortable at the moment, he couldn't say anything at all, and only waved his hand.
"Has the king ever harmed anyone?"
"Of course not!" He coughed again.
"Lie, I'm from Xiaowang Village in the south of the city, the eldest girl of Wang Erniu's family, I was picked up by the nobles of Dingwangfu, and I died the next day after I came back. She's only ten years old! A lame man cried out by the neck and hid.
But Yuan Zuo stared at it early, and received her eye signal, and flew over to catch him.
"Murder! Kill people! β
He was shocked and shouted with his life, and the crowd was even more angry. The guards of the Dingwang Mansion took the opportunity to catch a few more.
The scene is getting more and more out of control.
Dofu came up in a hurry and pulled her to the inner room to hide. There are those who really want to see a doctor, and this time there is also a trouble.
She turned around and stood still, and shouted angrily:
"I came to see a doctor, but I was so noisy, what kind of system is this? King Ding, they say you, you can tell the difference, so you arrest people, aren't you afraid that people will say that you are bullying people?! β
"This is a slander!" Yuan Zuo immediately retorted.
"Famous doctor, let the little one call the shots, what the little ones say is true." The lame man was about to kneel, but Yuan Zuo lifted it, and he shouted.
Duofu was so anxious that he waved his hand, meaning not to let her say any more, and even dragged her inside.
How could the lame man let her go, and kept shouting for the famous doctor to help.
She sighed and only trembled: "This, this confrontation between the officials and the people, the people are weak." Down there, tooβ"
The people nodded their heads one by one, looking empathetic. The few who were arrested even grabbed her like a life-saving straw, only begging her to beg for mercy and release. Two of them are more like paralyzed, kowtowing like pounding garlic, and saying something confused, and these words are never said to death. After speaking, he realized that something was wrong, and changed his words to say that someone else forced him to say it.
The more they were like this, the more the onlookers felt that the cruelty of human life in Dingwangfu was a little more real.
She sneered in her heart, but her face looked angry, she gritted her teeth and stomped her feet and said: "I have a method, I can try to find out who is true and who is false." β
"The little one is willing to listen to the orders of the famous doctor, and I only ask the famous doctor to save my life." The lame man expressed his attitude at the time, and he was not afraid of things that could not be confirmed. What's more, what else can he do as a doctor? It's nothing more than a deception to them.
"What about the king? You can think about it, you are high, if you try it, it will be clear that no one will throw dirty water on you. But if the test fails, so many people watch, but it really sits on the stigma, and since then his reputation has been ruined. β
"Yuan Zhanxun" was silent, and the guards gritted their teeth one by one.
It's not just the lame man, most of the people present now think that this doctor is just playing psychological warfare.
"How do you try?" "Yuan Zhanxun" asked coldly, with a solemn face.
"This is Shingon Dan."
"I've never heard of it!" "Yuan Zhanxun" trembled.
"If you haven't heard of it, it doesn't exist? This is a new development by the teacher, although there are some side effects, but it can be eliminated after an hour! β
"Presumptuous! My lord is a noble lord, did he test the medicine for you? Yuan Zuo scolded.
"He's just a thief, I dare to try!" The lame man shouted at the time. Don't say you haven't heard of the mantra, it's true, so just take it with you, and feel it out of your arms so casually?
"Does King Ding dare to try?"
"Good!"
The lame man was stunned, he didn't expect him to really say a good word.
But after that, he saw "Yuan Zhanxun" staring at the three "big hawthorn pills" she poured out, and the famous doctor was also a little nervous. And he figured it out again.
At this time, the platform is online, and whoever doesn't dare to eat it is equivalent to admitting lying. What's more, those girls died because of him. What is he afraid of?
Thinking of this, he went up on crutches, closed his eyes and pinched a grain. When I smell it, it is indeed sweet and sour, and my heart is more bottomed.
She raised her hand and sent it to "Yuan Zhanxun". People stared silently. He could only pinch one of them.
Seeing that both of them were holding on to their mouths, she slapped them at the time. Grunt twice before she sat down.
"King Ding, is there really a girl killed by you?"
"Sort of!"
The crowd blew up at that time, and the lame man sneered even more.
"Sort of? Let's talk about it! β
"Yuan Zhanxun" looked pained, obviously not wanting to recall, but he still said: "I was fine, but as soon as she got closer, I felt that something was wrong. I pinched myself hard and ran. β
"But she's still dead?"
"Yes!"
The lame man suddenly became triumphant.
"How many girls have died?"
"Eighteen!"
"You run away every time?"
"Although I was young at the time, I was sure that I didn't hurt her, so I asked Uncle Luo to investigate. Uncle Luo was not lightly injured, and came back with his last breath and told me that she had been poisoned by another poison. After that, I didn't dare to run away, and every time I held on, I stabbed myself with a dagger if I couldn't hold on. But they're all dead! β
He looked sad and rolled up his sleeves. He had scars on his arms one after another, new ones stacked with old ones, and they were shocking.
"Why is something wrong with you?"
He closed his eyes and was overwhelmed with grief: "Someone deliberately poisoned me!" β
