Zhao Wencheng's confession of guilt alone caused a bloody storm in the capital. Those involved in the confession of guilt included royal relatives, officials, wealthy families, merchants, etc.
The number of people involved in the case was huge, beyond the knowledge of the King of Dai Viet.
However, since the words were spoken, the King of Dai Viet had no choice but to swallow his pride and accept it.
The Dali Shaoqing and the Yongyi Marquis quickly detained the people involved in the case in the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple.
Among them, Dali Shaoqing shines with his swift, ruthless, and tricky style of handling cases.
Later, Dali Shaoqing was promoted by the King of Dai Viet to be in charge of Dali Temple and served as Dali Temple Minister at the recommendation of a number of veteran ministers including Duke Rong, Duke Chen, and Marquis Yongyi.
This confession of guilt will reshuffle the ranks of Beijing officials.
After Su Sijin stirred up the situation in the capital, she went to Zhao Jiande's mansion to make a purchase of 0 yuan before returning to the camp with Lu Changgong.
As for the unrest in the capital, it was not within Su Sijin's consideration.
She simply wanted to create trouble for the King of Dai Viet, to make him feel overwhelmed and helpless.
Otherwise, he would be bored and cause trouble to her from time to time.
Two days later, those with mild malaria in the camp had recovered, but to be on the safe side, they still needed to be isolated for another seven days. Only after confirming that there was no source of infection could they move freely.
As for the dozen or so patients with serious conditions, although they are out of danger, they still need to be monitored.
Su Sijin was dispensing medicine for a woman with a waist as big as a bucket. "Ninety-six coins per set. Take three sets first. A total of two hundred and eighty-eight coins."
The fat woman pointed at Su Sijin and scolded her harshly while holding three sets of medicine.
"What, so expensive? Just a few weeds, and they cost five hundred coins a pair? Why don't you just go and rob them?"
Su Sijin snatched the three prescriptions from her hand, her eyes darkened, and she looked coldly at the fat woman in front of her who didn't know what was good for her.
Su Sijin sneered and said, "A few wild grasses? In that case, I won't give you these wild grasses. Also, pay me back the money for the medicine for the past three days. One tael of silver, give it to me."
Although the herbs don't cost money, but... the lesson of being grateful for a meal and resentful for a big meal is too profound.
Therefore, she accepted a symbolic amount, also considering that the victims fleeing famine were not well-off.
However, it is obvious that some people are greedy, such as the fat woman in front of him.
"One or two taels? It's only three days. Even if you're greedy, you can't ask for too much!"
The fat woman tried her best to open her non-existent eye slits, and saw her with her hands on her hips, pointing at Su Sijin's nose and cursing.
Su Sijin stared at her fat fingers coldly. Just when she was about to break the fat woman's fingers, Lu Qiuling knocked the fat woman off balance.
Lu Qiuling stood in front of Su Sijin, staring at the fat woman with blazing eyes. She put her hands on her waist like the fat woman and roared, "Don't bully my sister-in-law, or I'll make you pay."
Hearing Lu Qiuling's roar, Zheng Jie and Shen Tingyun stopped refining the herbs and, together with Lu Qiuling, protected Su Sijin behind them.
Su Sijin was at a loss for words. Was she so weak that she needed three little sheep to protect her?
Seeing this, the fat woman knew she was going to suffer, so she immediately sat on the ground, slapping her legs with her hands, and yelling like a shrew without any shame or regard for her dignity.
"Oh my god! The four women from the Lu family are bullying me! Ouch! My thigh! They hurt me."
The fat woman slapped her legs as she spoke, wiping away her non-existent tears, and continued to slander and blackmail.
"Oh my God! Leaving our homeland and fleeing famine is already difficult enough, and the Lu family is asking for a tael of silver from me and threatening to beat me if I don't give it. Is there any justice or law in this?"
"You...you...you are blackmailing us. When did we hit you?" Zheng Jie was almost mad at the fat woman.
She has lived for decades, why does she always meet these shrews? She finally has a peaceful time, but now she is slandered by outsiders. It makes her so angry.
The fat woman saw that Zheng Jie was so angry that she couldn't speak clearly, and she thought that the man from the Lu family seemed to be away.
He also took advantage of the fact that the women of the Lu family were thin-skinned and more and more people were watching. He was sure that the women of the Lu family would submit obediently, so he became fearless.
The fat woman clutched her bucket-like waist and yelled, "You four women beat me up! Ouch! My waist is broken! I tell you, without a hundred taels of silver, this matter will not be resolved."
"God...you're crazy, we didn't touch you." Shen Tingyun blushed and stiffened his neck to refute her shamelessness.
"Ouch! Look, my arm is so swollen, it must be broken. And my ribs are in so much pain that I can't even straighten my back." The fat woman's shrewish and rogue behavior finally angered Su Sijin.
Su Sijin comforted Lu Qiuling who was crying uncontrollably. Her eyes were dark and a hurricane was sweeping across her eyes rapidly.
Su Sijin sneered, "Broken leg?"
The fat woman swallowed unconsciously, "Yes."
Su Sijin's eyes darkened. "Is the arm broken too?"
"……yes"
Although Su Sijin's face was dark, but...why did the fat woman feel that she was so scary?
"Is your head also cracked open?"
"right!"
"Pfft..." Everyone present couldn't help but laugh out loud.
What's so unclear about this? The fat woman is just trying to blackmail people.
What Su Sijin said had nothing to do with her accusations.
"Your head is split open? You're still alive? Your head is split open, why is there white blood flowing out of your head?"
Xu Yongsi's wife bluntly exposed the fat woman's slander.
Su Sijin nodded gratefully. This was the second time someone came forward to defend her, so she should be grateful to him.
"Ah! It's the right leg that's broken. Yes, the right leg is broken." The fat woman corrected quickly.
