"Dr. Zhao." These three words, which were light and weightless, made Dr. Zhao tremble all over. He bowed down again and said, "I'm here."

With the sound of footstep after footstep, a pair of shoes with a thousand layers of black and blue dragon patterns on the sea appeared in Dr. Zhao's low vision. "I heard that your son injured someone in a crime?"

Dr. Zhao was so calm that he said, "yes, it's all because I don't know how to discipline myself. I've developed a rebellious and disobedient temperament. I've made trouble everywhere and even caused great trouble."

"What happened later?" he said

"Later The family reported to Jingzhao's house and asked for ten thousand taels of medicine. " Cold sweat slowly drips down from the back temples of Dr. Zhao's black-and-white cross and penetrates into his collar.

Looking out of the window at the dusk sky in the autumn rain, Dongfang Su said calmly, "I remember that your salary is only a few hundred Liang a year. Ten thousand Liang is not a small sum. Have you lost it?"

Dr. Zhao only said: "compensation I'll pay for it. "

"Oh?" Dongfang Su leaned over and stared at the stiff doctor. He said with a smile: "I don't know. The family background of doctor Zhao is So rich. "

Dr. Zhao said with a smile, "my minister Thanks to the rewards of your majesty and the masters in the palace, I have accumulated a little. This time, I have lost my family and property! "

"Is it?" Dongfang Su's face was suddenly cold, and he said in a cold voice: "even if there is a reward for every visit, it's not as much as ten thousand Liang. How dare you lie in front of me. And he said, "where did the ten thousand taels come from? Did Marquis Zhao bribe you?"

"No! It's not like that Dr. Zhao shivered with fright and could not help kowtowing to his denial. When his mood calmed down a little, he said in a trembling voice: "there's a branch of ginseng in my family. It's handed down from my grandfather's generation. As long as I have a breath, this branch of ginseng can take my life back from Yan's hand. It's always regarded as a family heirloom. This time I was forced to sell this ginseng. "

Dongfang Su was stunned. He twisted his eyebrows and said, "is that ten thousand taels of silver from selling ginseng?" He couldn't control his temper before and drove mu Qianxue away. After the incident of the man in the mirror, when he was waiting for those headmasters and abbots to come over, he calmed down and thought about it carefully for a while. He thought that Dr. Zhao's case was really suspicious. He ordered Sun Xing to send it to Chengde palace to inquire about the origin of the ten thousand taels of silver. Unexpectedly, he asked such a result.

"Yes, ten thousand taels." Before Dr. Zhao's voice fell, dongfangsu's questions were ringing in his ears one after another, "who is the buyer of ginseng? Where do you live now? Who else knows about it? "

"The merchant who bought the ginseng is a foreign merchant who came to the capital to handle goods. I only know his surname is Wang, and he came from Jiangnan. I really don't know his specific name and address." Dr. Zhao raised his head slightly. "Because ginseng is valuable, the minister didn't publicize the business. Except for the minister, only the merchant surnamed Wang knew about it. However, the minister's wife also knew about the ancestral ginseng, and the dog never told him about it because he was a troublemaker."

Dongfangsu walked around him slowly, and said in a cold voice, "as the imperial doctor in the palace, you should know what the crime is of deceiving you. I'll ask you again, where does the money come from?"

Dr. Zhao pursed his lips. He could hear the sound of the teeth "clucking" in it. He twisted his arm secretly and said in a trembling voice, "it's from my ancestors' ginseng."

"Good!" Dongfang suddenly showed a cold smile, "I hope you're in the Department of criminal justice, and the same answer."

Even Sun Xing was startled when he said this. Although Dr. Zhao had only six ranks, he was also a serious official of the imperial court. It was beyond the palace people's ability to compare him. He was sent to the court without any evidence. It's true Some of them are unreasonable.

Dr. Zhao was scared out of his wits. Although he had never been in the Shenxing department, he heard more about the terrible things there. Since Zhou Li Guo built the Zhaoming palace, countless palace people and even concubines died there. Even if Rao Xing could survive, he would have to die.

He repeatedly kowtowed, trembled and said, "I dare not deceive your majesty. The silver is really obtained by selling the ancestral ginseng. If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask his wife and ask for your Majesty's lesson!"

Dongfang Su ignored him and said to Sun Xing, "don't you take him down yet?"

Sun Xing took a look at dongfangsu and said bravely, "Your Majesty, the Department of criminal justice has always been the place where the eunuchs are kept. Where does Dr. Zhao go Isn't that right? "

Inside the hall, the cold wind and drizzle outside seemed to stop, and a terrible silence filled the brightly lit hall.

A drop of cold sweat slipped from Sun Xing's forehead and meandered to his left eye. The salt in the sweat burned his eyes and sent a hot pain.

"Deng! Deng Deng The sound of the thousand layer bottom boots stepping on the gold bricks was like a sledgehammer, which knocked on Sun Xing's chest again and again. He was so frightened that he secretly regretted what he had said just now.

The sound of footsteps stopped behind Sun Xing, and the hall became silent again. Sun Xing could even hear his heart beating.

"I don't know. I have to ask your father-in-law sun for advice." The voice of nine ice ridges came from behind Sun Xing, which made his knees soften and he knelt on the ground in a hurry, "I dare not!""Dare not?" Qinglingling's laughter reverberated in the open hall. After a long time, he suddenly closed, and his voice without any emotion rang out again, "I see you dare very much!"

"I know my sin, please forgive me!" Sun Xing couldn't help kowtowing, and his cold sweat poured out like water. He wasn't the first day on duty in Chengde hall. He knew the truth that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, so he was careful everywhere, and it was peaceful all the time. But these days, he seemed to have changed his personality, and his happiness and anger were completely unpredictable.

A cold smile came from Dongfang temple. When he wanted to speak, someone from the palace came in and said, "tell your majesty that the Abbots Of Daxing temple, mingjue temple, Baima temple and Changchun temple have entered the palace, waiting for your majesty to summon them."

"Pass on!" After the palace man retreated, dongfangsu stared at Sun Xing, who was not only trembling, and said in a cold voice, "don't you take him to Shenxing department?"

"Chirp!" Sun Xing breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that he had recovered his life. This time, he did not dare to intercede for Dr. Zhao even if he had ten more courage. He called two powerful internal supervisors of Kong Wu to come in, and forced him to drag down Dr. Zhao, who was constantly crying for mercy. All the way, he attracted people's sympathy, including several leaders who had just been introduced into the palace.

In the crowd of eyebrows, only one person's lips rose slightly, with a silent smile.
