Although Zhou Zhengsheng did not hold a high official position, he was also an imperial doctor who treated the emperor.
He bows to the emperor and worships heaven and earth. He has never knelt down to a woman. Even the empress in the palace has to be polite to him.
Now having him bow to Si Ning is even more uncomfortable than killing him.
Zhou Zhengsheng was filled with hatred, but now in a place like this, he could only bow his head.
Wang Huiming is not reliable. Once he turns against the enemy and stands on the same front as Sining, he is afraid that he will be sacrificed.
In a short period of time, Zhou Zhengsheng thought of all the possibilities.
He lowered his head, waiting for Si Ning's forgiveness.
Si Ning was not so quick to let go and wanted to kill herself twice. If she just let it go, everyone would step on her.
She thinks she won't take the initiative to provoke anyone, but if someone provokes her, don't blame her for not being merciful.
Zhou Zhengsheng stared, murderous intent flashing through his eyes.
He slowly stood up and stared directly at Si Ning's back.
"Mrs. Lu, you have to be merciful and merciful."
Si Ning then spoke slowly, "Oh, Mr. Zhou, let me tell you, how should I spare you?"
This question stunned Zhou Zhengsheng, who didn't know how to answer.
Seeing the tension between the two of them, Wang Huiming hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.
"It's Mr. Zhou who speaks badly. You also know that Mr. Zhou is good at medicine but not good at talking to people. Madam Lu, don't be angry. If he did anything wrong, I will apologize to you on Mr. Zhou's behalf."
Si Ning looked at Wang Huiming with cold eyes and asked with a half-smile.
"Master Wang, are you willing to apologize to me on behalf of Master Zhou?"
"Of course, of course, if Mrs. Lu has any grievances, just say it..."
Si Ning, "Mr. Wang may have only heard of me and is not familiar with me. I am the first-grade imperial concubine of the emperor. At the same time, the emperor also made me the county head. I won't talk about those rewards. I am a dignified Lu." General’s wife, I would like to ask Mr. Wang. He accused me of theft for no reason and put me in prison without an imperial edict or order. How should I be compensated for this crime?”
Wang Huiming was shocked. He was indeed not familiar with Si Ning.
If he was familiar with it, he would never let Zhou Zhengsheng commit such a stupid thing.
Zhou Zhengsheng also understood what Si Ning meant, and the murderous intent emerged in his eyes again.
"Mrs. Lu, do you want to settle accounts with the queen?"
"This is a border crossing. We don't pay attention to the red tape in the capital. You didn't reveal your family background, and we are not familiar with you. It doesn't matter if we admit you by mistake."
This was a secret threat to Si Ning to see clearly where he was first.
In the capital, he might not dare to do anything to Si Ning, but here the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and if he kills people, he just kills them, and the emperor has no control over them.
Seeing that the momentum was not right, Wang Huiming wanted to retreat, but Si Ning did not give him this chance.
"Master Wang, do you think so too?"
Wang Huiming smiled awkwardly, "This... Mrs. Lu, actually there are many misunderstandings about this matter..."
Si Ning stretched out his hand to interrupt, "The person who advised the emperor to ask me to come to the border was Mr. Zhou. The carriage fell off a cliff on the way, and I escaped by chance. I narrowly escaped death and got here. I saw Mr. Zhou, but he pretended not to know me. I also want to Said this was a misunderstanding, not that Mr. Zhou wanted to get rid of me..."
This is a serious statement!
Zhou Zhengsheng looked at Si Ning with a dangerous look in his eyes.
He knew in his heart that Si Ning might not let it go so easily. He should already know something.
If that's the case, then we'll do it without stopping and deal with the person directly.
"Mrs. Lu, as long as you hand over the prescription, I will spare your life."
Zhou Zhengsheng changed his face and winked at Wang Huiming. Wang Huiming was hesitant for a moment.
Si Ning, however, still sat there drinking tea as steady as a mountain, and replied calmly.
"No need."
Zhou Zhengsheng was puzzled, "What do you mean by this?"
Si Ning finally put down the teacup in his hand and replied slowly.
"Because you're afraid you won't be able to wait until the day you kill me..."
As soon as he said these words, Zhou Zhengsheng felt a figure flash towards him.
Before he could react, there was a pain in his neck, followed by a surge of suffocation.
He slowly lowered his head and touched the painful spot on his neck. When he opened it, it was covered with blood.
This scene frightened the other person, and Wang Huiming subconsciously ran outside and shouted for help.
But as soon as he stood up, he was stopped by Si Ning.
"Master Wang, if you don't want to end up like Master Zhou, I advise you not to move."
Wang Huiming looked at Si Ning fearfully and sat down slowly.
People outside heard his shouts, and when no one came in for a long time, Wang Huiming knew that they were doomed.
"Mrs. Lu, misunderstandings are all misunderstandings."
Si Ning nodded, "It's indeed all a misunderstanding."
She poured Wang Huiming a cup of tea.
Wang Huiming raised it tremblingly, put it to his lips, took a sip, and smiled. When he looked sideways, he could still see Zhou Zhengsheng spurting blood.
Wang Huiming asked himself that he had seen a lot of things in the world, but this was the first time someone killed someone in front of him.
What is this... a bandit!
Wang Huiming really couldn't think of any other words to describe Si Ning. Only bandits could do this.
However, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction with Si Ning. His life was still in Si Ning's hands.
He swallowed and took another sip of the tea handed over by Si Ning.
"Madam has taken care of it."
Qiu Ju came back and replied respectfully.
The knife in her hand was still bleeding, and the blood belonged to Zhou Zhengsheng.
She looked at Wang Huiming, who trembled with fright and held the tea cup tightly.
Si Ning winked at Qiu Ju, and Qiu Ju stepped aside.
Si Ning lazily raised his eyes and looked at the person lying on the ground behind him, and said to Wang Huiming.
"Master Wang, you must have heard about the personal grudge between Master Zhou and me, right?"
Wang Huiming nodded, "Yes...yes...it's all Zhou Zhengsheng's fault."
Si Ning was very satisfied with his understanding of current affairs, "What Mr. Wang said is absolutely true, but now that the person is dead, how should I explain this to the emperor?"
Wang Huiming became clearer and understood what Si Ning meant.
He rolled his eyes and replied cautiously.
"Master Zhou unfortunately contracted the epidemic, so he was not lucky enough to come back from the border?"
Si Ning chuckled, "Master Wang and Master Zhou are really close colleagues..."
Wang Huiming's heart trembled, and he added hurriedly, "Master Zhou prepared a recipe to harm the people. The people were miserable, and the bandits passing by couldn't stand it anymore and drew their swords to help, so Master Zhou..."
"Master Wang is calling me a bandit?"
A layer of cold sweat broke out on Wang Huiming's forehead. He always felt that Si Ning was more terrifying than the emperor.
Si Ning stood up and looked at Wang Huiming with his head lowered.
"Master Wang is actually quite right. At least I, a bandit, am still a hero. The Emperor will not order me to be strangled, right?"
She took a few steps forward and asked curiously when she saw that Wang Huiming did not follow.
"Master Wang, don't you really want to make money? Come on, I'll take you to make a lot of money."
