Chapter 257 When Ruan Mian rushed over, the police had actually taken the two villagers and were about to punish them with a caning.
Ruan Qing rushed to the military camp immediately, wanting General Huo to think of a solution, while Yun Xiu came to find Ruan Mian and told her the news.
After hearing this, Xie Huaian frowned slightly: "Mianmian, I'll go find General Huo about this..."
"Don't bother General Huo, sir. I already have a plan. All we need to do is wait patiently."
"Do you have a plan?"
Xie Huaian looked at him in confusion, and then Ruan Mian told him about Princess Jiacheng being poisoned.
She then returned to the village with Yun Xiu, and everyone couldn't wait to come to her to complain.
The two villagers who were transporting the goods actually had a conflict with the officers at the checkpoint.
When Ruan Mian rushed over, the police had brought the two villagers with them and were about to punish them with a beating.
"Sir." Ruan Mian walked forward and wanted to say something nice, but when the officer saw her, he seemed to have been waiting for a long time and said with a smile.
"Finally, Madam Ruan has arrived."
"Madam, can you please excuse me for a moment?"
Ruan Mian's eyebrows moved slightly. Although no one knew what specific countermeasures she had, seeing her so calm, they also calmed down a little.
In the past two days, the princess, who thought she had miscarried, could not sleep at night. As soon as she closed her eyes, countless nightmares would come to her.
The dead fetus was destined to be bound to her soul, and the ghosts of those she had killed also lingered around her bed, especially her younger sister, who had not appeared in her dreams for many years and appeared again.
She had witnessed her sister's tragic death, and the truth had not been uncovered for so many years. The guilt she felt had become a sharp thorn in her heart.
As a result, in just two days, Princess Jiacheng looked like she was on the verge of death, which made the nannies and maids around her extremely worried.
He wanted to ask the Governor to come and take a look, but was ruthlessly rejected by Chen Bochong.
He even declared, "The dancer couldn't be saved, and my Chen family's only descendant was killed by her! Such a jealous woman deserves nothing more than a divorce letter!! I've already reported this matter back to my fiefdom as fast as I can. I want to see how my father-in-law will answer me!"
I'm so angry now, let alone going to see her, it's a blessing that I don't give her a cold look!
In desperation, Princess Jiacheng dragged her sick body and asked the nanny to come out.
"Make sure to invite Madam Ruan here!"
The nanny nodded repeatedly: "Don't worry, Madam. I heard that Miss Ruan is not only a prophet, but also has excellent medical skills. She will definitely make you better."
On the other side, Ruan Mian laughed when he heard what the officer said.
The officer took her aside and said, "Madam Ruan, our governor is only following the instructions from above. He doesn't want to embarrass you."
"The Governor said that if you want to resume your business, you can go to the Governor in person tonight. Perhaps the Governor will open a special shortcut for you for your sake. Our Lord is sincere to you."
Ruan Mian sneered, "Master Chen appears refined and upright, but how could he actually be a scoundrel? He's a dignified governor, yet he covets the wives of other minor officials and doesn't hesitate to abuse his power for personal gain. Isn't he afraid of being laughed at if this gets out?"
The officer's face changed drastically, and he immediately scolded, "Stop talking nonsense! The fact that the Lord gave you a chance and that he looked upon you is a blessing you've earned through several lifetimes!"
"Don't be ungrateful! I'm warning you, your entire village relies on foreign trade for a living. If you offend the Governor, you will all be in big trouble!"
In his opinion, she was just a useless woman who dared to say such rebellious words.
"This blessing should be given to the official."
The officer was furious and drew his sword suddenly, but the next moment he was suddenly whipped hard from a certain direction!
In an instant, the officer's face was beaten to pieces!
The officer looked over with uncontrollable anger, and when he saw the old nanny with a cold gaze, he instantly recognized her identity. Too frightened to say anything, he bowed respectfully: "Madame Li, why are you..."
Before she could finish her words, Nanny Li turned around and bowed to Ruan Mian: "Madam Ruan, the Madam invites you."
After he finished speaking, he did not forget to give the official a hard kick: "Useless thing! My wife is my mistress's, and you dare to attack me with your ugly face?"
Seeing this, there was no need for Ruan Mian to take action. Under the authority of Nanny Li, all the captured villagers were released.
Before leaving, she spoke to her aunt.
"Aunt, it won't be long before things get back to normal here. You can go out and help run the shop for a few days. We'll go find the tiger in the forest later. I've already let it out and it's roaring. Let our little white tiger take you out."
The eldest aunt nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm here outside, nothing can happen. Just don't let that bastard Chen Bozong go! Teach him a lesson!"
"By the way, Mianmian, this Princess Jiacheng relying on you was also part of your plan, right?"
Ruan Mian smiled calmly: "Yes, I exchanged those poison powders from the space. They can make people feel anxious and weak, dazed, and easily fall into hallucinations."
Princess Jiacheng believes so much in ghosts and gods, so she naturally wants to make good use of this.
When she and Nanny Li arrived at the mansion, they saw the princess lying on the bed with a haggard face and an extremely gloomy expression.
However, Nanny Li is a skilled person. Ever since she took Ruan Mian in, she has been wary of her with half-belief and half-doubt.
Ruan Mian first examined her and prescribed a medicine for the maid to prepare.
Then he said again.
"Madam, your fetus miscarried, and you experienced a series of bloody incidents, haunted by resentment, which is why you can't sleep at night. The medicine I prescribed can only alleviate your pain. As for the reality of that dream..."
Before she could finish, Nanny Li warned, "Madam Ruan, don't try to play tricks on me. My wife is the daughter of a great prince. If she is fooled by someone, I will not let that person off!"
Ruan Mian's expression remained calm, he just chuckled and said.
"I know the pros and cons of this, but I can't just stand by and watch my wife die in such a state."
"Madam, do you know that there are not only vengeful spirits lingering around you, but also a trace of wronged spirits."
The princess's face turned pale, and she seemed to realize something. She suddenly grabbed Ruan Mian's wrist bone and said, "Madam Ruan, please tell me in detail!"
Ruan Mian stood up, asked for paper and pen, wrote something and handed it to Nanny Li, asking her to prepare according to what was written.
After everything was ready, Ruan Mian lit a fire in the middle of the room. The flames in the brazier flickered, reflecting the face of Princess Jiacheng.
She slowly uttered some obscure words, and the surroundings were silent. The curtain outside the closed door moved slightly.
Everyone held their breath and waited. When Ruan Mian opened her eyes again, her expression suddenly changed. She suddenly knelt in front of the princess and cried out for justice.
"Sister, sister, save me..."
When she heard the word "sister", the princess stiffened all over and stared at Ruan Mian with wide eyes.
Ruan Mian continued to exert force: "Sister, that day my brother-in-law led me to the woodshed, forced me to drink a decoction that would make me lose my virginity, and forced me to give myself to him. When I refused, he plunged the handle of a knife into my body and caused me to die in agony!"
