Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 94 Questioning

Liang Guang, Duke of Chang State, had been holding his breath. He was resting at home, but he came over after being invited by Tao Ran.

When Tao Ran sent someone to invite him, he told Liang Guang that someone was beating the Dengwen drum and it involved the royal clan, so Tao Ran asked him to come over.

Although he was nominally in charge of the clan's mansion, all specific affairs were handed over to the Ministry of Rites, and because during Ruizong's reign the vassals in various places were fighting each other, there are only a few local vassals left today.

These vassal kings were afraid of arousing the emperor's suspicion, so they usually stayed quiet in their fiefdoms, fearing that some news would spread to the capital.

Liang Guang originally thought that it was just another trivial matter where the vassal king and the people were competing for profit. Only later did he realize that what was waiting for him was such a trivial matter.

King Wei was the master that the censors did not dare to offend. How could he, an idle prince, speak up?

After arriving, it was absolutely impossible to leave. Liang Guang glanced sideways at Tao Ran and said angrily: "Master Tao, if you want to ask, just keep asking. I'm afraid, it's easy for you to start but hard to finish."

Tao Ran smiled awkwardly and asked Qiu Guangzu, the minister of Dali Temple, "Master Qiu, do you have anything to say?"

Qiu Guangzu snorted coldly and said, "I'm just here to listen. Master Tao, please do it yourself. You don't have to follow my ideas."

Tao Ran scolded the two of them in his heart, calmed down, and declared the meeting open.

He first asked Luo Ying to repeat the words of the complaint, and then said: "Prince Concubine, you said that Prince Wei poisoned you, do you have any evidence?"

Tao Ran looked at Lin Zisu again and saw that she was young and delicate in appearance. She did not look like a doctor, but he still asked: "Miss Lin, the Crown Princess said that you are a witness, what is your answer?"

Although there is a law that anyone who beats the drum and accuses falsely will be punished by a hundred rods, but for the sake of false alarm, Tao Ran does not want to cause trouble anymore, and just wants to end the case as soon as possible.

He smiled and said to Luo Ying: "Prince, youdao, a husband and wife will be kind to you for a hundred days. Since you are in good health, please come back. Duke Chang Guo is responsible for the clan affairs, and he will come forward to take care of your husband and wife another day."

How about we make peace?"

Liang Guang had already made up his mind that he would never interfere in this matter. He pretended not to hear, turned sideways and said to Tao Ran: "Master Tao, I have been suffering from anger and deafness for the past two days, what did you say just now?"

Tao Ran cursed in his heart again. It seemed that the imperial doctor could not be hired, so he would invite someone with a good reputation. At worst, he could silence others. He immediately said: "Come here, go and invite the doctor from Qianjin Hall across the way."

Doctor Lu, come here."

No matter what, you have to have an imperial doctor come over to be convincing. Besides, the imperial doctors also know what things can be said and what things cannot be said. It is best to get this matter out of the way.

Tao Ran said impatiently: "Doctor Lu, let's make a long story short. The imperial concubine is ill. Go and see what the problem is."

When she heard Tao Ran ask about herself again, she smiled sweetly and said, "Of course there is evidence. The witness is this Miss Lin. After I fainted from poisoning two days ago, it was Miss Lin who went to Luo Mansion to treat me."

Although Miss Lin spoke eloquently, she was still too young and was only an apprentice.

Presumably, he also knew Qiu Guangzu. After he finished saluting Liang Guang, he bowed to Qiu Guangzu and exchanged chattering greetings.

Tao Ran thought of Liang Guang next to him. As the elder brother of the Queen, Tao Ran also had a respectable position in the Imperial Hospital, so he said to Liang Guang: "My lord, the case has been tried here. Do you think it is necessary to hire a Tai hospital?"

The doctor from the hospital is here."

People speak lightly, and no matter how much they say, they cannot convince the public, let alone report to the emperor as a basis.

Tao Ran nodded, raised his eyes and asked, "What Miss Lin said makes sense. I don't know where you came from, and which medical clinic you are currently employed in?"

After Luo Ying entered the Metropolitan Procuratorate, she never expressed her misery like other complainants. Instead, she always had a decent smile on her face.

"What the Crown Princess said is right, I did cure her poison. I saw that the Crown Princess had black hair in her hair, crystals in her hair, and a scattered pulse, which is a godless vein. Therefore, I dare to conclude that the Crown Princess was caused by poisoning. At the moment, she is still

There is poison in the Princess's body. If you don't believe it, ask someone to test it and you will know."

Not long after, Dr. Lu came in with a medicine box. Dr. Lu had white beard and hair and a rosy face, looking like an expert from this world.

Since the Crown Princess was not poisoned, it was not a big deal. It was probably because there was some discord between the couple, and the Crown Princess couldn't get angry, so she came over and beat the Dengwen drum.

"The eyes are dull and the pulse is weak. It must be that the lung qi is insufficient. Hmm, the lung qi is insufficient." Dr. Lu took the pulse with one hand and stroked his snow-white goatee with the other.

It’s about tonic.”

When Dr. Lu heard that the person sitting opposite him was actually the Crown Princess, he quickly saluted again. After the salute was completed, he calmly examined Luo Ying. After a quarter of an hour, Dr. Lu still had no conclusion.

Tao Ran was a little anxious and asked: "Doctor Lu, how is the princess' health? What can you tell?"

There were a few people listening outside the door who didn't believe that Lin Zisu was a doctor, but after hearing him mention the Sun Family Medical Center, two of them remembered it, and one of them said as if waking up from a dream: "It turns out it's this guy.

Girl, I remembered, it was her! At such a young age, her medical skills were very good. Aunt Zhao’s grandson was hit by a horse, and it was she who healed him!"

But the imperial doctors only treated the emperor's relatives. As a foreign official, he would never be able to hire an imperial doctor without the emperor's will.

Lin Zisu said: "My grandfather used to work at Tai Hospital, and I am currently an apprentice at Sun Family Medical Center on Huifeng Street."

The news immediately spread outside the lobby, but Tao Ran in the main hall didn't take it seriously. After hearing Lin Zisu's answer, he said "oh" and didn't ask any more questions.

Tao Ran, Liang Guang, and Qiu Guangzu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when Dr. Lu said this.

Luo Ying was still waiting for Dr. Lu to take a pulse and ignored Tao Ran's words.

When Liang Guang heard that Tao Ran had brought this matter into his own hands again, his expression was troubled and he was about to reprimand him. Tao Ran made a decision immediately and did not give him a chance to speak, saying: "The Duke is responsible for the responsibility of everyone. For such a trivial matter, please give me everything."

Don’t refuse.”

Although Tao Ran was eager to close the case, in order to show his caution, he still pretended to ask: "Doctor Lu, do you have anything else to say?"

Doctor Lu over there had just finished checking his pulse. When Tao Ran asked, he stood up, shook his head and said: "Master Tao, the princess's lungs are not enough. The cause seems to be that she has been poisoned by a strange poison. This poisonous poison

Although it is slow, it is extremely vicious and can take people's lives without knowing it. Concubine, thank you for meeting me, otherwise, the consequences... well, the consequences are unpredictable!"
