"The pulse is steady and strong, the fetus is growing and developing normally, and both mother and child are healthy..."
Zhang Mingtu spoke for a long time with a smile on his face, and Mrs. Wang's originally nervous expression relaxed.
Ruihai gave a few gentle words of advice, with a smile on his face, and there was not much trace of it.
Then he picked up a document and discussed recent government issues with Zhang Mingtu. After listening to the beginning, Mrs. Wang turned and left.
After Mrs. Wang left for a while, Ruihai put the documents aside unnoticeably and his face became serious.
"Have you found anything?"
He had asked several doctors to take the pulse carefully before, but they didn't find much. Their statements were similar to Zhang Mingtu's, that both mother and child had stable pulses and good qi and blood.
"There are some findings, but I'm not sure."
Zhang Mingtu frowned slightly, no longer as calm as before.
On the surface, he was taking the pulse, but in fact, he used the Great Sutra of the Three Lives to Resolve Grievances, the Sutra of the Original Vow of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and even the Dragon and Tiger External Elixir to sense it.
Mrs. Wang could vaguely sense a breath in her abdomen that was of the same origin as hers. It was not just the fetus, but there was another breath near the fetus that was almost connected to the fetus's breath.
If Zhang Mingtu had not been very attentive and had not practiced the most advanced magical skills, he might not have noticed it.
If Zhang Mingtu had not known in advance that there was a high possibility of a Gu worm in Mrs. Wang's body, he would not have been able to discover it.
This was only possible due to his master-level mental state and subtle manipulation of his true energy.
It is conceivable how secretive and special the poisonous insects are.
"Madam, there is indeed something amiss in the area of the fetus's brain located in her abdomen. There is a presence that is almost identical to the fetus's, hidden there, sometimes appearing and sometimes disappearing. If it weren't for the intelligence you provided earlier, I would have basically ignored it."
Rui Hai's expression also darkened, although he had known that the situation might be like this. After all, the information given to him by that mysterious and unknown existence had always been accurate and had never been wrong.
Whether it is the investigation of Xingguo County or Jianyi, the details are amazing.
Even though Rui Hai has always been a very meticulous worker, he couldn't find any faults after reading the relevant report and felt that this was the best he could do.
Even the report from Xingguo County was very similar in style to Ruihai's own report. It was obvious that the person behind the scenes had considered Ruihai's usual writing habits. This was also why Ruihai was convinced that the person must be a colleague.
Only those who are in the same officialdom can know his situation clearly.
Now that it was confirmed once again that his wife had been poisoned, Rui Hai's heart was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.
"Is there a solution? Can this help us find the mastermind behind this?"
Zhang Mingtu was silent for a moment, no longer showing off like before, but thinking carefully and considering it before speaking.
"Madam should be worry-free for the time being. Even after the fetus is born normally, Madam will not be affected. The only one affected should be the fetus."
"The other party planted the poisonous insect very accurately. The insect was only found parasitizing the fetus. If the information you received is accurate, the insect should be like a bear hibernating in winter and has not revived.
If we can cut off the Gu worm's nutrients in advance, the Gu worm will basically never be able to revive and will slowly die. In this way, both mother and child can be safe..."
This should be the earliest solution adopted by Ruihai, and it was also the information Zhang Mingtu obtained from other sources.
"Is this all we can do? Can't we use this to find the person behind this?"
Zhang Mingtu was silent for a moment. It was not completely impossible. At least he had already known the situation of the chief clerk in advance.
As long as we keep a close eye on the main department, we will most likely be able to find the mastermind behind the scenes, but the risks in this regard should be quite high.
From the perspective of the future brothers, they didn't care too much about this side, but Ruihai seemed to have not been successful, and Zhang Mingtu had a deep understanding of Ruihai over the past few days.
Ruihai's actions and methods were extremely outstanding. Even with prior notification, Ruihai was unable to catch the other party's hand. It seems that the mastermind behind the scenes is quite cunning.
“It takes time to try.”
Zhang Mingtu didn't say anything too final.
"I have some clues, but I'm not sure. Bronze is too special. I didn't know much about it before, so I can't say I'm too sure..."
Rui Hai nodded to show his understanding.
"I hope you will pretend that nothing has happened and that you know nothing. I hope the other party will reveal their true intentions and create some opportunities for me."
After discussing in detail what to do, Zhang Mingtu turned around and left, disappearing quietly into the night.
Ruihai looked out the window at the night scene, was stunned for a while, then cheered up again. Looking at the documents piled up around him that were taller than him, he started working again in front of the oil lamp.
Before he had worked for long, Mrs. Wang came back in, put her hands on Ruihai's shoulders, and squeezed them. Taking advantage of Ruihai's relaxation, she asked casually, "Is there something wrong with my body?"
Rui Hai remained calm, still reviewing documents as normal, and said with a smile, "How could that be? You're in good health, nothing's wrong."
Mrs. Wang did not ask any more questions. Ruihai's body stiffened for a moment just now. She could certainly feel such details. Since Ruihai was unwilling to say more, she would not ask any more questions.
…
The moon was high in the sky, and Zhang Mingtu was sitting cross-legged on the roof of the chief clerk's office. His whole body merged into the darkness, and not a trace of his presence was revealed.
The chief clerk worked all day without showing any sign of work until late at night.
The chief clerk suddenly turned over and got out of bed. With a few taps of his toes, he jumped a great distance, showing his superb kung fu skills, and his movements were swift and agile.
The overall movements are smooth and very capable. Every move is in a corner that can just block people's vision. Just this skill of hiding his body makes him a first-class scout in the army.
Zhang Mingtu watched, secretly amazed, and then followed him unnoticed.
The clerk moved quickly, and Zhang Mingtu was quite familiar with the route, so it didn't take long for him to reach the house where Ruihai lived.
Those were the houses allocated by the county government to many county-level leaders for their residence. In fact, few people lived there together. After all, many county magistrates had fixed residences, and there were very few people like Ruihai who were incorruptible.
The chief clerk walked nimbly to a place not far from Ruihai's residence, then made a hand seal, and a stream of literary energy flowed out of his body and silently sank into where Ruihai was.
This literary aura is very subtle, and just like what is naturally emitted by a person with high literary aura when reading normally, there is not much trace.
If it were in a place where there were not many literati, it would be more obvious, but near the county government office, the literary style that naturally emanated from Ruihai when he was handling official documents and reading and learning to read could easily cover up this literary atmosphere.
"What a brilliant technique."
Zhang Mingtu couldn't help but marvel.
