Chapter 276 Zhao Shuning’s Scapegoat
Gu Qishan's face was as gloomy as water.
Only three days have passed since the incident, but it has already caused an uproar in the city.
The speed at which rumors spread is somewhat extraordinary.
Is there really no one behind this who is fanning the flames?
At this time, Gu Zhaolin approached him and said, "Foster father, the epidemic in the city has resurfaced. If we don't deal with it in time, I'm afraid all our previous efforts will be in vain."
Gu Qishan looked at him and asked, "What's your plan?"
Gu Zhaolin said bluntly, "Zhao Shuning previously treated the epidemic in the city with considerable success. Why not let her try again?"
Gu Qishan pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.
The city does need someone who can stabilize the situation, and Zhao Shuning does have some abilities. As long as someone has abilities, he will not hesitate to employ them.
On the other hand, some doubts also arose in his mind.
If he wants to verify those suspicions, he must first give the other party a chance to show himself.
If there really is someone behind this, the fox's tail will be exposed sooner or later.
Chu Yian was injured and has been recuperating in the city recently. Zhao Shuning has not gone anywhere these days and has been taking care of him. Chu Yian felt as if they had become the same as they were before, and there was a bit of tenderness in his eyes when he looked at her.
Zhao Shuning also greeted him with a smile, but there was not much real friendship in his eyes.
I serve him so wholeheartedly because he has made great contributions in getting rid of Xiao Yanci.
If he could be valued by the King of Wu, Zhao Shuning would be happy to see it happen and would naturally be willing to repair his relationship with him.
Moreover, she has been waiting for news these days.
She had already poured a spoonful of water into the oil pan. Now that the oil pan was completely exploding, she only needed to watch quietly from the side. When the time came, someone would naturally come to ask her out.
She didn't have to wait long before Gu Zhaolin sent someone to deliver the good news, and Zhao Shuning showed a smug smile on her face.
It was worth it that she had planned for so long and finally succeeded.
Chu Yian was delighted. "Shuning, you made the right move this time. How confident are you about the next move?"
She has muddied the waters, and the Jiang family's achievements have completely vanished into thin air.
But what is more important next is to turn the tide and stabilize the situation again.
Otherwise, the game will completely collapse.
Chu Yian has confidence in Zhao Shuning, but he still has doubts in his heart.
Zhao Shuning looked confident, "100%."
Chu Yian's eyes were filled with joy, "Really?"
"Don't believe it? Then just wait and see."
Seeing her so confident, Chu Yian's doubts disappeared, and his eyes looked at her with even more tenderness.
"I believe in you, and you never let me down."
Zhao Shuning didn't take any of this to heart.
All the events that happened in Beijing before are still vivid in my mind.
If she succeeded, the man would naturally be full of praise for her.
But if things go wrong, he will say that I am the troublemaker who has brought trouble to the Marquis' Mansion.
But this time, she would not fail.
The Jiang family would never have thought that they had fallen into their own trap from the very beginning.
She actually has no good solution for this epidemic.
But the situation was urgent at that time. The Qiangdi people were invading, and nine out of ten soldiers in the army were sick and had no fighting ability at all.
Gu Zhaolin was so anxious that his mouth was full of blisters. After careful consideration, Zhao Shuning made a bold decision.
She reached a cooperation with Gu Zhaolin.
She helped the soldiers get better, so Gu Zhaolin recommended her for credit.
She took an unconventional approach and used a vicious method that she had never used before.
This method has an immediate effect, but it also has side effects, so she only dares to use it on a few people.
The final effect was indeed extraordinary. The soldiers who took the medicine recovered quickly and even became extremely brave. They were invincible in the battle with Qiang Di and made considerable contributions.
The first battle was a victory. Gu Zhaolin kept his promise and took credit for her, and urged her to use this recipe on other people.
At this time, Zhao Shuning confessed the truth to Gu Zhaolin. The prescription was like drinking poison to quench thirst. The trouble would break out sooner or later. If it was promoted on a large scale, she would not be able to stop it.
Losing your life in a war is the best way to destroy all traces.
But there are still thousands of soldiers alive, and they must find a way to get rid of them.
Zhao Shuning needed Gu Zhaolin to be the executioner, so he confessed to him.
Gu Zhaolin was furious when he learned the truth, but he was already tied to Zhao Shuning's ship and had no way out, so he could only find a way to deal with the aftermath.
Just then, the Jiang family arrived.
Old Doctor Jiang came up with an effective method to treat the epidemic, and Zhao Shuning's credit and limelight were completely snatched away. But she was not anxious, but relieved instead.
Because she knew that her scapegoat had come.
The prescriptions made by Dr. Jiang are indeed very effective. After taking them continuously for the past few days, most of the patients have recovered. For those who have not yet fully recovered, it is only a matter of time.
At this point, the time is ripe.
They planned this drama carefully.
The group of people sent out of the city was arranged by Gu Zhaolin.
That team included all the people they wanted to get rid of.
Everything went smoothly. After leaving the city, they were stimulated by an unknown substance and suddenly became "possessed by evil spirits". They were then attacked by Qiang flutes and almost all of them died. Only more than 20 people escaped.
These twenty-odd people are no longer a concern and can be eliminated at any opportunity.
The people who were "possessed" by evil spirits were those who were attacked by Zhao Shuning.
The "possession" of those people is crucial and will become the fuse that ignites public opinion.
Afterwards, people were sent to secretly guide public opinion, and naturally all the criticisms were directed at the Jiang family and their prescription.
No one would have thought that the real problem was Zhao Shuning's previous prescription.
Now, the task of treating the epidemic falls on Zhao Shuning's shoulders again. Others think this is a mess, but she knows that this is a ready-made achievement.
The Jiang family has already overcome the most difficult stage. The people have been taking medicine for so many days in a row, and their bodies have almost recovered. Next, she only needs to prescribe some medicine to strengthen the body, and everyone will be cured.
In this way, she not only successfully shifted the blame to the Jiang family, but also took away their credit.
The Jiang family has completely become her stepping stone.
A smug smile appeared at the corner of Zhao Shuning's lips.
The Jiang family had already been ransacked and had no chance of recovery, so Zhao Shuning used them without any burden at all.
It is their honor to be able to serve as a stepping stone for themselves, which is a good use of their resources.
Chu Yian asked her about her specific plan, but Zhao Shuning naturally did not reveal it.
The fewer people who knew about this, the less risk she faced.
Chu Yian is not trustworthy. Who knows if he will betray me?
Even Gu Zhaolin, she didn't completely trust him.
However, this matter also involves his interests, and he will never take the initiative to tell anyone about it.
Seeing that she refused to reveal it, Chu Yian felt unhappy, but he did not continue to ask.
"By the way, I saw the Ye family."
Zhao Shuning looked puzzled, "Which Ye family member?"
"The Ye family in southern Yunnan, if I'm not mistaken, is Ye Hanyi, the cousin of Prince Jin. My arrow injured her, and Ge Xubai rescued her."
Zhao Shuning frowned, "You didn't expose yourself, did you?"
"I hid in the dark, so no one could find me."
"Then there's nothing to worry about. If anyone wants to blame her, blame her for coming to this troubled place. Even if the Ye family wants to settle the score, they can only put it on the Qiangdi people."
