Ling Yun reported the matter to the authorities, who came quickly and took the man away directly.

When Manager Wu was awakened by a basin of cold water, he found himself kneeling in the court of the Dali Temple.

The Dali Temple generally handled cases involving officials or royal relatives. As a commoner, it was a blessing to have the opportunity to attend the court of the Dali Temple.

The Dali Temple Minister presided over the case and sat in the court.

Xiao Chonghua sat on the side very humbly, not putting on airs like a prince at all.

The Dali Temple official slammed the gavel: "Wu Fugui! How dare you! How dare you murder the Queen Mother and His Majesty!"

Shopkeeper Wu was dazed: "Sir... Sir... I didn't..."

The Dali Temple official said sternly, "You still dare to quibble? Someone, come here! Show me the physical evidence!"

The officers presented him with several packets of powdered medicine they had found on him.

The thing is, he originally gave these packets of medicine powder to the three little guys as "rewards".

But when Ling Yun came over, he took it out and threw it back at him.

What kind of messy and dirty thing is worthy of being given to his apprentice? Shopkeeper Wu tried his best to argue: "This, this is not mine! Someone hurt me! The people from the First Hall hurt me!"

The Dali Temple Minister was not one to open a court for no reason. He said coldly, "You still dare to be stubborn when you are about to die. Well, I will let you die knowingly! And bring physical evidence!"

This time, the officer presented a tray of medicinal herbs.

Shopkeeper Wu looked confused.

The Dali Temple official said, "I have asked the doctor to identify all the herbs needed to make this package of powder. Among them, saffron is only purchased in large quantities by your Renxin Hall! The First Hall and several nearby clinics do not have this medicine at all!"

How could Manager Wu have expected that the Dali Temple could find a flaw here?

This is in line with the saying that the net of heaven is vast and wide, and nothing can escape it.

Manager Wu didn't even think about how these officials passed the numerous selections to enter the government. Could they be stupid? Moreover, those who could enter the Dali Temple not only had to be well-educated, but also had to have a talent for solving cases.

Manager Wu's criminal methods are not enough to stand up to the Dali Temple's judge.

Soon, Mr. Hu was also brought up.

He winked at Shopkeeper Wu, asking him to take all the blame, and he would take care of the whole family for him.

Xiao Chonghua said, "Master Zhao, may I have a word with you?"

The Dali Temple Minister hurriedly bowed and said, "Your Highness, please speak."

Xiao Chonghua said slowly, "To murder the Queen Mother and the King of a country is a capital crime with the confiscation of property and extermination of the clan. I ask Lord Zhao to conduct a strict trial and not to wrongly accuse any good person, nor to let any evil person go."

How could the Dali Temple official not understand that this was meant for Shopkeeper Wu? He stood up and saluted, saying, "Your Highness, please rest assured that I will handle this impartially! Those who deserve to be killed will be killed, and those who deserve to be exterminated will be exterminated. I will not show any leniency!"

The conversation between the two scared Shopkeeper Wu enough. If he wanted to exterminate his entire clan, then all of his family would have to go to the guillotine with him! No!

This can't be done!

He doesn't want to die, and neither can his family! Xiao Chonghua knows the principle of using both kindness and severity: "But if you help investigate the case and make a meritorious report, you can be forgiven and the death penalty can be avoided."

Shopkeeper Wu could no longer hold back, "Your Highness! I am innocent! He ordered me to do this!"

Mr. Hu was horrified: "You are talking nonsense!"

Shopkeeper Wu said excitedly, "I don't have any! Your Highness! I confess! I confess everything! I only ask Your Highness to spare my life!"

Shopkeeper Wu explained the whole story of how he bribed Du Juan to poison the patient: "... The boss has long disliked the First Hall and has tried to trip them up many times. This time he heard that the doctor from the First Hall went to treat the Queen Mother... The boss was worried that the First Hall would become famous after the Queen Mother was cured, so he came up with a sinister plan to frame the First Hall."

Mr. Hu was furious: "You... this idea was obviously yours! I don't agree to frame the Queen Mother, so you can just say that the poison can't reach the Queen Mother's mouth. There are silver needles and eunuchs who taste the poison, so it can be discovered!"

Shopkeeper Wu said bitterly, "Second Master! You are wrongly accusing me! When did I ever say that? Even if you give me a hundred guts... I wouldn't dare to do that!"

The two of them started fighting.

Shopkeeper Wu mentioned a female doctor named Du Juan, and the Dali Temple Chief Justice sent someone to bring her to the Dali Temple.

The Imperial Palace.

Hu Jiusheng was making medicine for Emperor Jingxuan.

The medicine boy came over in a panic: "Master, something happened to the Second Master!"

Due to the accusation of Manager Wu and the presence of witnesses and evidence, Master Hu was thrown into death row.

However, Mr. Hu did not give up Hu Jiusheng.

Otherwise, once people knew that Hu Jiusheng knew that the ointment was poisoned but did not stop it in time, he would also be held accountable.

Hu Jiusheng's hand holding the silver needle trembled slightly.

"Master, what should I do?"

The medicine boy asked in a low voice.

Hu Jiusheng was in a state of confusion: "Don't worry... let me calm down..."

After all, Mr. Hu is his younger brother and the official owner of Renxintang. If something really happens, the entire Hu family will be implicated.

"The most urgent task is to quickly cure His Majesty of the poison..."

Only if His Majesty is cured will it be possible to plead for my brother.

Luckily he has the antidote.

Hu Jiusheng took a deep breath, calmed his panic, dissolved the antidote in a bowl of warm tonic medicine, and sent it to Emperor Jingxuan.

Emperor Jingxuan was unconscious and unable to take medicine.

Hu Jiusheng first gave him acupuncture to help him regain a little consciousness, and then Eunuch Fu fed him the antidote spoonful by spoonful.

Emperor Jingxuan's complexion gradually improved. The dark energy on his forehead faded, and his black fingernails also showed a hint of redness.

"His Majesty……"

"This medicine is so bitter..."

Hu Jiuchang breathed a sigh of relief when he was able to speak again.

However, before he could let out a breath, Emperor Jingxuan suddenly convulsed and violently spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Eunuch Fu's face turned pale: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

Emperor Jingxuan fell heavily on the dragon bed.

Eunuch Fu touched Emperor Jingxuan's neck, looked at the black blood the emperor had vomited, pointed at Hu Jiusheng and said, "It's poisonous... You killed His Majesty!"

Hu Jiusheng was stunned and fell to the ground.

"How could this happen... It's obviously an antidote... It's an antidote..."

"What's the antidote?"

Princess Jingning appeared behind him coldly.

Hu Jiusheng was so frightened when he saw Emperor Jingxuan who was completely out of breath.

He did not salute Princess Jingning, but curled up, hugged his head, and muttered to himself.

"It's the antidote... I made it according to the prescription... It's the right antidote... That's what the book says... I didn't poison your majesty... It wasn't me... The antidote I gave you... It's effective..."

Princess Jingning gave him a deep look and said, "Someone, come here! Arrest Hu Yuan, hand him over to me!"
