Chapter 553: More and more drama

After Su Ying had eaten and drunk her fill, a palace maid brought up some hot water for her to wipe her hands. Then Su Ying turned to look at the Minister of Justice.

"Why are you peeking at me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Minister of Justice felt a chill down his spine. The emperor looked at him as if he wanted to eat him!

"Your humble servant, your humble servant dare not..."

"You don't want me to take over this mess for you, do you? Minister of Justice, your calculations are so good that even the dogs in the toilet can hear them."

The Minister of Justice's old face turned red with shame, but he still held on.

Xiao Jin took a sip of tea and asked the palace maid to remove all the barbecue racks.

"When the ministers said that the queen was too controlling, why did you become a saw-mouthed gourd?"

The Minister of Justice lowered his head even lower. Everyone in the court was like this. As long as it didn't harm their own interests, most people would not speak.

At that time, the Minister of Justice had the same idea, but he didn't expect that retribution would come so quickly!

"I, your humble servant, deserve death."

The Minister of Justice was not only worried that he could not solve the case, but he was also worried that if the White Lotus Immortal really died, those ladies would not let it go and would continue to make trouble with him, and then he would have no need to live.

"If you want to ask me to save people, it's not impossible, but my Lord Shangshu, you have to get your attitude right. You are asking me to save you. Do you understand?"

The Minister of Justice didn't quite understand. After having been in the court for many years, he was one of the few people who showed a confused expression.

"I heard that there is a nation in the southwest that will go on a pilgrimage next year. They will kneel from the door to the front of the Buddhist temple. Well, it sounds quite pious." Xiao Jin said casually.

Su Ying took the tea from the maid and nodded, "It seems so."

The Minister of Justice understood!

Two quarters of an hour later, everyone in the palace could see a pious figure coming from the direction of the palace gate, kneeling and bowing devoutly towards the direction of Fengluan Palace.

When a passerby asked, the Minister of Justice said that he asked the Empress to save a prisoner.

Asking the mother of a country to save a prisoner?

Everyone felt that the Minister of Justice had a big hole in his brain.

It was not until it was getting dark that the Minister of Justice knelt outside the Fengluan Palace.

At this time, his forehead was already swollen from the impact, his pants were worn out, and he looked extremely miserable.

Inside Fengluan Palace, Xiao Jin picked up a piece of food for Su Ying with his chopsticks. It was time for dinner again.

"If you don't want to go, don't go."

Su Ying ate all the food in the bowl and said, "It's not good. The Minister of Justice kowtowed for the whole afternoon after all."

Xiao Jin frowned slightly, "You don't have to be so kind."

Su Ying shook her head and sighed, "I am a soft-hearted woman after all."

Dabao picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and silently lowered his head to eat. Daddy and Mommy were acting more and more...

If it weren't for that fateful horoscope, Su Ying might have really not bothered to care about it, but since the matter involved her child, she couldn't just sit back and do nothing, especially since the other party had come to provoke her. How brave does it take to shoot a prisoner in the Ministry of Justice?

The Minister of Justice limped out of the palace with Su Ying.

The real name of the White Lotus Immortal was Hao Bailian. According to her own account, her parents died when she was young. Since she was a girl, no relatives were willing to take her in, so she ran to the city and became a beggar.

She has done all kinds of hard and tiring work, and cheating and deceiving are her daily behaviors, just to have something to eat.

The longer she was out there, the more people she came into contact with and the more shrewd she became. It was because of this that she was noticed by the temple master, Taoist Sanmei, who asked her to disguise herself as the White Lotus Immortal.

After being shot, Hao Bailian was carried to the backyard of the Ministry of Justice.

Several doctors have been found, but because her condition is critical, no doctor dares to treat her easily. Seeing that her breath is getting weaker and weaker, the people in the Ministry of Justice are also very anxious.

"My lady, the person is inside."

Su Ying gestured to everyone to wait outside the door, and she took the medicine box from Zhou Qing and walked in alone.

The door was closed, blocking everyone's view.

The house was filled with a strong smell of blood.

Hao Bailian, lying on the bed, was losing too much blood and her vital signs were getting weaker and weaker.

The arrow feathers on her chest had been cut off at both ends, but it still looked shocking at first glance.

Su Ying first gave her a basic examination and found that she had completely fainted due to excessive blood loss.

She took out a piece of black cloth, blindfolded Hao Bailian, and brought her into the space.

The man had lost a lot of blood by now. Fortunately, the doctor did not forcibly pull out the arrow from his chest, otherwise he would not have been able to survive until now.

After Su Ying tested her blood type, she first gave her a blood transfusion and then began to prepare for surgery to remove the arrow.

The arrow feather just pierced into the right sternum, which was still some distance away from the heart. However, the murderer was able to shoot such a penetrating arrow at such a short distance, which showed that his archery skills must be very superb.

The arrow feathers also pierced the sternum and shoulder blade. She didn't believe that this arrow was not infused with internal force.

Su Ying took a lot of effort to cut the arrow into several pieces and get it out, but even so, Hao Bailian's bones were still seriously damaged, but her life was saved.

After suturing the wound, Su Ying increased the dose of blood transfusion. She wanted the patient to wake up as soon as possible.

When Su Ying came out of the house again, the sun was already high in the sky.

The Minister of Justice was getting anxious waiting outside. His subordinates asked him to go and treat his injuries several times, but he refused.

Seeing Su Ying coming out, the Minister of Justice staggered forward and said, "Your Majesty, you have worked so hard. Please go to the compartment and rest for a while. I have asked someone to prepare the food."

Su Ying was indeed hungry. After she arrived at the compartment, the Minister of Justice followed her in. However, seeing that the Queen looked normal, he thought that the person must have been rescued.

Sure enough, after Su Ying had eaten her fill, he confirmed his guess as soon as he asked.

"Your Majesty's medical skills are truly amazing."

Su Ying stroked the teacup in her hand, calculating the time when Hao Bailian would wake up. She gave her medicine, and she would basically wake up after anesthesia.

If you can't wake up, it will be a bit troublesome.

Before the Minister of Justice had finished his flattery, the maid said outside the door: "My lord, my lady, the person has woken up."

Before the Minister of Justice could react, Su Ying stood up and walked out, and the Minister of Justice could only follow her.

When Su Ying came to the bed, she saw Hao Bailian looking around with a pair of confused eyes. The moment she saw Su Ying, she seemed to be stimulated by something and her face turned even paler with fright.

"Are you scared now? Why weren't you scared when I asked you to tell the truth?"

Hao Bailian's pupils shrank. She felt that the queen was not a human being. It seemed that nothing could be hidden from her.

"My lady, I really didn't mean to hide it... I also have my own difficulties..."
