Chapter 268 Buy One Get One Free
Nun Shuiyue was arrested.
Liuyun and the guards interrogated him overnight.
This woman was too stubborn. No matter how they forced her to confess, she refused to reveal the person who was behind the plot to poison the prince.
If we continue to torture him, he might be dead.
"Oh my god, maybe it's easier for women to talk to each other." Lu Qingyao said.
Liuyun thought for a moment and said, "Thank you, Madam Jiang."
With these repeated robberies and murders, perhaps Madam Lu has long been unable to stay out of it.
In addition to the relationship with the young master, the fate of them, mother and son, and the eldest princess and King Jing have long been linked.
Sooner or later you will know.
When Master Shuiyue saw the newcomer, she was stunned for a moment and said with a wry smile, "They actually let you come to interrogate them?"
She remembered that guard, who had appeared beside Prince Jing and Princess Yuqing.
But who is this woman in front of me and what is her identity?
He was actually being hunted by so many killers.
Lu Qingyao looked at her with a pair of dull eyes, and it seemed that she had completely lost hope of living.
But before a person dies, he or she will inevitably recall the past and probably want to find someone to talk to.
She dragged a small stool and sat down next to Shuiyue, handing her a cup of tea. "Let's not talk about the people behind the scenes for now. Let's talk about how you entered the Imperial Medical Bureau and how you became a female doctor. It must have been very difficult to master this skill, right?"
Shuiyue thought back to the past. "This world is inherently unfair to women, especially women practicing medicine. Even if you join the Imperial Medical Bureau, what good will it do? You'll still be unknown, becoming a slave serving the nobles. The slightest mistake can get you kicked out of the Imperial Medical Bureau. And it just so happened that my mistake was seen by that person..."
She was very alert and didn't say anything further.
She knew clearly that all under heaven belonged to the king.
So she and her brother wanted to make a lot of money, leave Daliang and flee to another country.
Escape to a place where the princes cannot reach.
They had already saved enough money and were ready to leave.
He was targeted by a group of killers.
They couldn't be defeated, so they had no choice but to obey orders.
She originally thought that while the snipe and the clam were fighting, she could benefit from it. She heard that the group of people took away a lot of gold and silver.
I didn't expect this woman to be so powerful.
It failed for no apparent reason, and it failed completely.
Seeing her frown, Lu Qingyao knew that she was recalling the unpleasant past.
A sentence broke her silence, "I guess you live a very humble life in the palace."
"You...are you here to laugh at me?"
Lu Qingyao shook her head. "No, to be honest, we have no hatred or grudges against each other. If you hadn't deliberately led me there, I wouldn't have set foot in Shuiyue Temple, and I would have no reason to laugh at you."
"What I want to ask is, has the Crown Prince or anyone in the Crown Prince's harem ever treated you with disrespect?"
"Not really."
After all, you are different from the palace maids who serve people. They are still counting on you to treat their illnesses.
They won't make things difficult for you without reason.
On the contrary, those imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau who claim to be miracle doctors regard you as a woman, no matter how skilled you are, as long as you are a woman, in their eyes you are just a handyman.
There were even various rules and regulations for female doctors, and those who were selected had to recite the "Instructions for Women" on the spot.
Seeing her fierce eyes, Lu Qingyao knew that she had aroused the anger in her heart.
If you can’t ask, then use the process of elimination.
Then he asked, "You are about to die, and no one else in your family is threatened. Don't you want revenge?"
"Who is it that caused you and your brother to become homeless dogs, hiding in those deep mountains without ever seeing the light of day?"
"Who else could it be? It's just those old bastards in the Imperial Medical Bureau who always find fault with me for no reason. And the Fourth Prince is not a good guy either..." Shuiyue suddenly stopped.
He looked at Lu Qingyao angrily, "You're trying to trick me."
Lu Qingyao nodded, not denying it. "Just tell me everything. Since it was the Fourth Prince who threatened you, he must be putting the blame on you. Are you willing to be his pawn? Take the blame for poisoning the Crown Prince for him."
Everyone thought it was the third prince, Prince Su, but unexpectedly it was Prince Chen.
Master Shuiyue didn't know what she was insisting on, because that person had threatened her with her brother.
It was he who set up the trap that turned his younger brother into a murderer.
After they faked their own deaths and escaped, they kept pretending to be other people in order to avoid being searched by officers and soldiers.
Anyone who knew their identities had to be silenced.
This is one wrong step that leads to all the wrong steps.
"Okay, I'll confess and write it all down."
Lu Qingyao said, "Write down everything you know about the shady things that the imperial doctors do. You should also want to see them get humiliated."
Nun Shuiyue's eyes moved slightly.
You know what, she knows a lot.
Which imperial physician works for which concubine, which imperial physician neglects his duties, which imperial physician steals medicinal materials, etc.
If it were in the past, she would have been scared to death and pretended to be mute.
But now, she is about to die, so what is there to be afraid of?
I can almost imagine how I would muddy the waters in the Imperial Medical Bureau.
As I wrote, I started laughing out loud.
Before she died, she finally got a last ditch effort from the imperial physicians who looked down on her and bullied her.
Don't even think about having an easy time.
When Lu Qingyao left, she gave the confession to Liuyun, "Although she identified Prince Chen, you still need to verify whether it is him. As for the imperial physician's secret records, just consider it my thank you gift to Prince Jing for his many assistances."
The situation today is clear.
The imperial physicians were the only ones who could frequently enter and leave the palace. With this leverage in hand, King Jing could act very smoothly.
"What? The Secret Records of the Imperial Physician." Liuyun opened his mouth wide.
This also comes with a buy one get one free deal.
Madam Lu is amazing. She confessed everything in less than an hour.
With this confession, the prince's poison may be cured.
The Imperial Medical Bureau is now in the master's hands, which will be of great help in future operations.
Madam Lu has made a great contribution this time. This matter must be reported to King Jing and the Princess as soon as possible.
"Thank you. Did she say anything else?"
"She left her body intact. She also left some medical books in the pharmacy. Let Jingyue take charge of it."
From then on, Master Shuiyue was missing from Shuiyue Temple.
But the reputation of Lingquan remains. The spring in front of the temple continues to flow out water.
There are still many people who come here because of its reputation, but they can all get the spring water themselves.
The spring water is sweet and perfect for making tea.
There is no more charging.
Shuiyue Temple is still a century-old temple.
There were more young nuns who provided free medical treatment to the people, regardless of their status.
Although they were sold to Shuiyue, they are now free.
They had learned some things from Shuiyue, and the medical books left by Shuiyue had also become their treasures.
Lu Qingyao never expected that she would catch the person who poisoned the prince after taking the wrong road.
Everyone thought that the prince was just weak and sickly, but they didn't expect that he was poisoned.
None of the royal family members are simple.
It seems that King Jing is no ordinary person.
It seems that he cares too much about their family.
Is he plotting something? ...
