Chapter 1224 Suicide in fear of crime
"It's not necessary." Chu Heng put his hands behind his back and only glanced at him, "Bring over the medicinal materials that Dr. Liu brought with him."
At the same time, an old doctor came out.
"I have met Master Chu."
"Doctor Zhao has worked hard." Chu Heng stepped forward and reached out to help the old man up: "I'm sorry."
He took a step back and gave way to Imperial Physician Zhao to check the properties of the medicine in the water.
And Zhang Ahai also took orders to bring over the medicinal materials brought by Dr. Liu and his personal package.
This time, the cook and Doctor Liu were beaten so hard that their hearts were beating like drums. When they saw Imperial Doctor Zhao coming out, they were already heartbroken.
Suddenly, Zhang Ahai roared angrily: "They want to commit suicide!"
As he spoke, he took a step forward, grabbed Doctor Liu's jaw, and wanted to save someone, but he saw blood dripping from the corner of Doctor Liu's mouth, his eyes widened, and he was already dying.
The cook next to him took a step slower and was stopped from committing suicide.
Was taken away alone by Chu Heng for interrogation.
Doctor Zhao also finished checking the sachet: "This sachet has been soaked in poisonous water, then dried in the sun, and a strong-smelling mosquito repellent is added to it, so that the scent of the sachet itself can hardly be smelled. "
"My lord is very careful. If you find such spies, there may be other spies in the army. Your lord should check again."
"Thank you, Imperial Physician Zhao." After Chu Heng cupped his hands in thanks, he arranged for someone to check his personal belongings again.
Three more people were found.
With Doctor Zhao present, the three who were originally sick drank the medicine and were left behind after stopping at the post station.
The spies who were caught before were also dealt with cleanly.
After that, no one in the team got sick anymore, and the originally unstable morale gradually calmed down.
The capital.
Ye Muyu had just received Chu Heng's letter. After she read it, she really reported good news but not bad news. It only said that he had successfully entered the Northland, and that he was only five or six days away from the border.
She pursed her lips tightly, and picked up another letter from the table, which mentioned the specifics, the time when Chu Heng arrived at the post station every time, and the soldier's illness.
When she saw the cause of the disease inside, she breathed a sigh of relief. Before Ah Heng left, she asked Lu Sangqi to put a prescription for curing the evil disease and a bottle of pills into it.
She considered at the time that if she didn't have enough medicinal materials and she was really sick, taking pills could also solve the urgent need. She only had to wait for the town and take out the prescription to catch the medicine and cure the disease.
Although it was a little critical, it was resolved.
But, why did the people at the station say that the soldiers who were put down by Ah Heng were all ill and could only stay for treatment?
Even, some soldiers were not sent to the post station, but to the nearest town.
After reading it, Ye Muyu burned the letter, thinking in her heart that something must have happened, otherwise Chu Heng would not have used the medicine.
But she wasn't sure if it was Ah Heng's scheme.
She made a sound and called Sumei to come in: "Is there any news from Miss Tang?"
"Ma'am, there isn't any. Recently, Tang Meiren's favorite fabrics were sent directly to the mansion, and she didn't go out to pick them up in person." Seeing her sad face, Sumei seemed to be worried about the master, she comforted her voice: " Madame, the master is wise and intelligent, and nothing will happen."
"In fact, most of the grain you ordered to buy has already been bought and put into the warehouse, just waiting to be delivered."
"Do you have a letter from Young Master Du, and shopkeeper Tang." Ye Muyu knew that worrying was useless, so she had to make many preparations in advance.
