Qian Wenxiang secretly wiped his sweat and glanced aside quietly. Not to mention that Fang Zilan didn't care, no one among the officials who were watching, from Zhuge Yu and Su Yun to Pei Xiaoze and Zhou Lang, cared about it, and no one talked about it. It was really a ghost.
Thinking of this, Qian Wenxiang felt a chill running down his spine. This was the first time he met a woman who didn't even care about her reputation, and it was also the first time he met a man who didn't care about a woman's reputation.
It can only show that these people are desperate and don't care about anything.
It seems that it will be difficult to get away with it this time.
Get away with it? When these two words popped into his mind, Qian Wenxiang realized that from the beginning, he had been lucky and thought he could escape.
It's a pity that from the moment he took the first human life on his hands, he was destined to suffer such a disaster.
There is no way to escape.
Therefore, Qian Wenxiang confessed quickly, but with his testimony, the Pei family and the Su family were inevitably involved, and Mr. Miluo Zuo's plot was gradually revealed to everyone.
Murong Qing played the role of an innocent proton extremely well. He was ignorant and ignorant, as if he had no idea what Mr. Zuo was planning. At the same time, he was heartbroken, as if he had never thought that Mr. Zuo, who was both a teacher and a friend, could be so ambitious.
It wasn't until Zhuge Yu stood up and told the secret past that Mr. Zuo was dead that everyone felt at ease.
At the same time, Murong Qing, who had already known about it, was "stunned" by the so-called bad news. Meng Tingyang hurriedly helped him down, but Fang Zilan did not follow.
For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on the Crown Prince's wife, who had an affair with the Emperor of Beijing and had no concern for her husband. However, she just looked at Li Qiyou and said, "Your Majesty, please do not continue the interrogation." Yet?"
Li Qiyou was stunned for a moment, then listened to Fang Zilan's explanation, more like talking to himself: "I also want to hear about the Su family's case."
Hearing this, Su Yun clenched his fists and finally stood up, "Su Yun of the Su family wants to report my father."
In just one sentence, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength. His whole body was trembling slightly, but he still straightened his spine.
Fang Zilan looked at Su Yun with mixed feelings in her heart. The truth he told was similar to her guess. The murder of Su Yuexi's family was closely related to his father.
In addition, the missing persons cases that occur almost every year in the southeast are also related to the Su family. Pharmaceutical companies always need experimental products.
"The source of the plague was the fisherman who got the disease." Fang Zilan heard her voice, as if she was out of control, and asked, "Is it related to the Su family?"
"It's irrelevant." Su Yun pursed his lips, "But after the plague, the Su family found many refugees..."
He didn't say any more, but the answer was ready to come out.
Fang Zilan's face turned pale and she said in a cold voice: "The Duke of Xian Yue did not keep the prescription for treatment back then. If it was for..."
"No." Su Yun abruptly interrupted Fang Zilan's words, shook his head and said, "The Su family is not here for treatment."
Fang Zilan's expression froze and she couldn't ask any more questions. The person who asked for her was A Wan.
"If it's not for treatment, then why?" Awan gritted his teeth and said, "That was a plague. Do you know how many people died that year?"
"I'm sorry." Su Yun blurted out subconsciously, but even he didn't know why he was sorry. He was not involved and did not know the details.
This apology may be just because his surname is Su. Since you bear the name of your family, you cannot live alone.
"A Wan, that's enough." Fang Zilan couldn't help but stop A Wan, "Master Su doesn't know anything."
"But..." Awan opened his mouth, but couldn't say even a single word. She didn't want to say Su Yun was innocent, but she didn't think Su Yun was guilty either.
She still remembers that every time her master mentioned the Su family, he said that although their methods were extreme, their achievements in medical skills were unmatched by anyone. If they could be passed down to future generations, they would definitely benefit people.
What's the point of using medical skills piled up with human lives to benefit others?
She doesn't understand and doesn't want to understand.
Just like the medicine dolls in the ghost gate who have lost their vitality, it will only make her feel that she is an executioner rather than a doctor.
Fang Zilan reached out and pulled Awan to her side, hugging her gently. Without saying anything, she heard Su Yuexi's name again.
She couldn't help but look over. The jade pendant that should have belonged to Su Yuexi was now lying quietly in Su Yun's hand.
After all, I couldn’t hide it anymore.
Lin Jian stood up as a witness and truthfully told what exactly happened in Lin's village. From Su Yuexi to Xia Houyan, nothing was hidden.
Although Awan knew that Fang Zilan had an internal reason for burning Linjia Village, after hearing this, she was still agitated and could not calm down for a long time.
"So what Duke Xianyue said back then, that Miss Xiahou died of the plague, was all a lie?" Li Qiyou's voice had an imperceptible tremor. Although he was asking Lin Jian, his eyes always fell on Fang Zilan.
Lin Jian lowered his head and said resolutely: "Yes."
Just one word is enough to cause an uproar. When Fang Zilan entered Linjia Village alone, she was like a god in the hearts of the people in the southeast.
But now, the surviving witnesses have said that behind the awe-inspiring righteousness, there are just lies, which no one can accept.
It's like a statue of a god. After many years, the splendor on the surface has disappeared, revealing the decay and emptiness on the inside. With a clang, it collapsed and shattered into pieces.
"Miss Awan, is what the head guard Lin said true?" Li Qiyou asked again, his lips moving, "What the Duke of Xianyue said back then, that Miss Xiahou died of the plague, was all a lie?"
Awan bit her lips tightly and kept looking at Fang Zilan, but she couldn't see anything. What was on her face was an almost numb calmness.
"Even if the Duke of Xianyue lied about Miss Su and Miss Xiahou's death, so what?" Awan said word by word as if he was risking his life: "Go deep into the epidemic area, not afraid of life and death, and vow to share the common destiny with the people of the southeast." The one who survives or dies depends on the Duke of Yue first."
She paused and said loudly: "The Duke of Xian Yue lied to preserve the posthumous reputations of Miss Su and Miss Xiahou, just like what I did today."
As she spoke, she broke away from Fang Zilan's hand and walked to the center of the hall. "It's not that people are dead, and others have to make irresponsible remarks. Or, just because of such an insignificant lie, you think that the country must be conquered first." Was everything he did back then all false?"
Her voice was not loud, but it gradually silenced the whole hall until another voice suddenly sounded, like a stone dropped on the calm water——
"Are the lies told by Duke Xian Yue really insignificant?"
