Chapter 409 Is this an arrow wound?

On second thought, with Liao Jiu here, there shouldn't be anything fishy. Liao Jiu is not a fool, he must know the importance of this witness.

"Yeah. Okay, I understand. I just went out and found the fairy grass..."

Dabao was stunned. "Really?"

"Well, since they found the fairy grass first, I can keep it here as a backup and wait for news from Governor Liao. There's no rush."

There's no need to rush.

Now, it would be more appropriate for her to go see Li Niang first.

As the mother and son were talking, someone hurriedly came from the left.

"Doctor Jiang."

Jiang Lianzhu asked, "When will Liao Jiu be able to come back?"

"I'm not sure about that. The Emperor summoned Mao Shurong for questioning, and the Governor personally took him there."

Jiang Lianzhu got straight to the point, "I heard your Western Commander is back. Did you bring Li Niang back with you? Can I meet her?"

Thinking about it, if it were someone else, he would definitely refuse without even thinking about it.

But this person is Jiang Lianzhu.

She is the sweetheart of their governor, and is also a very capable and competent person, and is also a person involved in the case.

Put yourself in their shoes. If Jiang Lianzhu made this request to Liao Jiu, would their governor agree?

Of course!

"Yes, Li Niang is back, but she's not in good condition. On her way back to the city, she was chased by people from Baihua Tower and was injured. She is looking for a doctor to treat her... Otherwise, Doctor Jiang can go over and help." Kill two birds with one stone.

Xiang Zuo was not here just now because he went to find a doctor and find out the details of the situation.

Jiang Lianzhu became nervous, "Is the injury serious?"

"It's hard to say. The knife was poisoned, intended to silence the witness."

Jiang Lianzhu walked away, "I'm going back to the house to get the medical kit. Dabao, you come with us."

Dabao nodded.

Xiang Zuo was waiting in the yard. Jiang Lianzhu went back to the house, quickly got the medical kit and came out. In front of outsiders, she still had to pretend.

"Thank you."

Xiang Zuo led the way in front, and Jiang Lianzhu and Dabao followed with big strides.

Nanbao didn't know where they were going. She watched from the side and wanted to hurry up, but Erbao stopped her and said, "Nanbao, Mommy and Dabao are going to do some serious work. Let's behave."

"Okay." Nanbao went back obediently.

The six doors were very large, and it took them quite a while to walk to the interrogation room in the front hall.

Halfway through the walk, Jiang Lianzhu turned around and saw that Nanny Cheng had caught up with her.

Nanny Cheng was holding one of Dabao's outer robes and smiled to herself, "Doctor Jiang, it's overcast now, and Dabao forgot his robe, so I brought it to him."

Dabao took it calmly.

"Thank you, Mammy."

Nanny Cheng still had an awkward smile on her face. "I, I, I'll go with you, okay? Doctor Jiang, I can help you with something. I'm very nimble..."

Jiang Lianzhu looked at her and said nothing, which was considered as her agreement.

Nanny Cheng's behavior became increasingly strange, and she seemed to understand something.

So, she didn't refuse, she wanted to see what she really wanted to do.

Dabao didn't understand what was going on, but he looked at Jiang Lianzhu several times. He didn't understand why they wanted to bring Nanny Cheng with them, since she was a stranger who had just been with them for a short time.

But he would not doubt Jiang Lianzhu's actions.

There must be a reason why my mother did this.

Everyone's thoughts were on Li Niang, fearing that she had been poisoned to death or something bad had happened to her.

Hurry up and move forward.

Finally arrived at the prison area of the Six Gates.

As soon as you go in, it's eerie and cold. Even in broad daylight, it's pitch black inside, and there's even a basement.

There are several floors above and below.

Occasionally, there are all kinds of miserable or neurotic sounds coming... making people's scalp tingle.

When Dabao saw this, he couldn't help but hold his breath. After all, he was still a child, and it was his first time entering such a scary place as a prison cell.

Jiang Lianzhu held his little hand, didn't say anything, just squeezed it gently, and Dabao's mind calmed down.

Li Niang is a serious criminal and is imprisoned in the deepest cell.

There was a sentry every three steps and a guard every five steps. There were heavy guards, and the one in front greeted the left, "Left Envoy!"

Nodding to the left, "How's the situation in there?"

"The doctor just went in."

Xiang Zuo nodded and took Jiang Lianzhu and the others into the cell.

The natural light was not very good, and except for a few skylights above the head, it was almost airtight, but there were a large number of kerosene torches burning on the surrounding walls, making it as bright as day.

There was a large stone platform in the middle, and on the platform there was a person lying, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.

There were several people gathered around the stone platform, some dressed as doctors, and some high-ranking officials from the Six Gates, all of them were concerned about the person on the stone platform.

Jiang Lianzhu took a glance and it seemed to be an old acquaintance, Xiangxi.

She had met almost all of the four commanders of the Six Gates and was no stranger to any of them.

Xiangxi also noticed them coming in.

Came up to meet him.

"Doctor Jiang, you're here?"

Xiang Zuo and Xiang You had only heard that Jiang Lianzhu was awesome, but had never seen her kill anyone with their own eyes. The ones who saw Jiang Lianzhu kill someone with their own eyes were Xiang Dong and Xiang Xi.

Xiangxi knew Jiang Lianzhu's strength better than anyone else and admired her very much.

Jiang Lianzhu nodded.

Xiang Zuo said, "Doctor Jiang and the young master heard that Li Niang was brought back, so they came to see how Li Niang's injuries were treated. If it's not working, let Doctor Jiang come."

When mentioning Li Niang's injury, Xiang Xi's face turned pale. "She hasn't woken up yet. I've changed several doctors. If Doctor Jiang can help, she'll be fine."

Jiang Lianzhu strode over without saying a word.

Upon hearing this, the doctors at the edge of the stone platform hurriedly made room for her. Everyone was sweating profusely and tried their best to cure the seemingly inconspicuous poison, but the victim remained unconscious and lost consciousness.

Jiang Lianzhu looked at Li Niang, who was unconscious on the stone platform. Her face was pale and she had wounds on her arms and shoulders. The wounds were black and red and were severely swollen.

"Is this an arrow wound?"

While speaking, Jiang Lianzhu forgot to glance at Nanny Cheng beside her, only to see her face full of shock. As expected, did she know Li Niang?

Xiangxi replied to Jiang Lianzhu in a deep voice, "Yes, she was hit by two arrows. When we were almost to the capital, we were ambushed in the inn. They were people from Baihualou. It seemed that they were planning to take Li Niang alive. Later, we repelled them. They got angry and shot her with a few arrows. She was caught off guard. She was hit by an arrow on the shoulder and the arm. After she was shot, we gave her antidote, but it didn't work. We rushed her back to the city. These doctors are all famous doctors in the capital. She couldn't be revived, so we have sent a letter to the Imperial Hospital..."

Jiang Lianzhu said "oh".

Rescue the person first, this is also an extremely important witness and cannot be lost.

Since she was able to survive until she was sent to the city, she should be able to cure the poison.

There is no time to lose.

He opened the medicine box and said, "I'm going to cleanse her of the toxins. She needs to take off all her clothes. All of you who are not related to her should step aside."
