Wanjin Lady

Chapter 468 Interrogation
"If I don't get treatment, my knees won't be able to bear the strain of walking. Every step will feel like walking on a mountain of knives. Not to mention riding a horse or shooting arrows."

"As for the cure... I only have a 40% chance of success."

Wen Wan suddenly clenched her fingers into a fist, her nails digging into her flesh, yet she didn't feel the slightest bit of pain. The young lady's voice was soft, but gradually became firm.

"If he can't be cured...he'll be able to walk with difficulty, but he'll be like a disabled person."

"He will most likely become a respectable cripple."

She lowered her eyes, trying to hold back tears. "It sounds like there are two paths, but in fact there is no other choice."

"Doctor Chu, please continue to treat him."

"If he blames me and hates me, I accept my fate."

"Madam Wen!" Hou Ji tried to dissuade her with red eyes, "The Empress might not agree! We have the best doctors in the palace—"

At the end of the story, I burst into tears.

Bingzhou is 18,000 miles away from the capital. By the time the imperial physician arrived, the grass on Wei Zheng's grave was almost two meters tall.

Wen Wan shook her head. "If the Queen wants to beat me or kill me, just take my head." She bowed deeply to Doctor Chu. "Thank you for your hard work."

She couldn't bear to watch any longer.

I could only walk out the door and wait in the yard.

The moment she closed the door, Wen Wan had only one thought in her mind: she wanted him to be alive!

She owed him a huge favor, she wouldn't let him die!

She had clearly sealed her heart, but this man was the one who kept pestering her and pried it open.

Can't be pried open.

They bombed it with grenades.

Then he got into my heart.

County Magistrate Tang vacated a villa of a wealthy businessman in the city for them to live in, and thoughtfully arranged for a maid and two servants to serve them. The entrance and exit were guarded by palace soldiers.

The maid looked to be about the same age as Wen Wan. She brought lunch over and saw that Wen Wan hadn't taken a bite. She tried to persuade her a few times but found that the young lady wasn't listening, so she gave up.

The next day, Zhao Heng brought Agui back and the skeleton. Wen Wan then asked the county magistrate Tang to help find the officials who had been missing for the past twenty years.

Agui's arm was burned, so Wen Wan asked her to go down for treatment and not to wait on him for the next few days. She also took the prototype she and Doctor Chu had discussed and agreed upon and had someone make a wheelchair overnight.

only--

There has been no news of Zhao Heng, who led his troops to hunt down Mo Sufang.

The splint was removed after two days.

Wei Zheng still didn't wake up.

In the past two days, Wei Zheng sometimes had a high fever and sometimes felt cold all over. Wen Wan was unable to leave for a moment. After finally removing the splint, Doctor Chu used a silver needle to lightly prick the sole of his foot to the bone, but Wei Zheng's toes only trembled slightly.

Seeing Doctor Chu's solemn expression, Wen Wan's heart sank.

"Although the blood and qi are flowing freely, the meridians are damaged. Here..." Doctor Chu drew a meridian map on the table with medicinal wine, sighing and shaking his head repeatedly, "The main meridian has formed a scab after being broken. It looks healed, but it's actually like a taut knot. I'm afraid it will be difficult to walk in the future-"

Wen Wan bit her lower lip.

She won't give up.

There are imperial physicians in the palace. If Doctor Chu is not good enough, there are other doctors.

Wei Zheng always stands up.

Under the light, Wei Zheng opened his eyes in a daze, and saw Wen Wan's haggard face.

His blurred eyes fell on Wenwan's shoulders.

Hoarseness.

"You're...hurt."

Wen Wan was startled when she heard this, and her eyes fell on her shoulder. There had been chaos in the past two days, and she only discovered last night that her shoulder was grazed by an arrow. She applied some medicine and ignored it. She never expected that the first sentence Wei Zheng said when he woke up was this.

Wen Wan had been trying hard to hold back her emotions, but in the end, tears streamed down her face at this one detail.

She always said that her heart was as solid as cement, but she couldn't resist the innocent heart of someone who could tear open a crack in the cement and let someone get in.

She suddenly realized that she was a real coward in love.

She was always afraid that people's hearts would change easily, so she didn't dare to give her true heart easily.

So what if I’m in love for once?

No matter how devastating it will be in the future.

Wei Zheng has given her enough courage to embark on this journey together.

At this moment, the thoughts of "forever" and "growing old together" that popped into her mind were real.

"I've applied the medicine."

Wenwan's voice was rustling.

I still couldn't help but let my tears flow.

"Don't cry..." Wei Zheng gently took her hand and placed it on his chest, pointing to his heart, "It hurts here..."

Doctor Chu looked left and right, and only regretted that he was not invisible.

Today's young people...

Wen Wan grabbed Doctor Chu with tears in her eyes, "Doctor, hurry! He said his heart hurts!"

Doctor Chu: Am I some kind of wronged person?
Doctor Chu suppressed the urge to curse and smiled without saying anything.

Wei Zheng glanced down, "My legs..."

Wen Wan quickly interrupted Doctor Chu and said, "He's injured his bones. He won't be able to walk for two or three months."

Wei Zheng looked at Doctor Chu, who nodded immediately: "That's right, your Excellency is injured in the knees, joints, and other places. It will take at least a hundred days to recover from the injuries."

Wei Zheng was exhausted and managed to say a few words before falling asleep again.

After two or three days, Zhao Heng and others arrested Mo Sufang and his group.

Wen Wan wanted to see Mo Sufang, and before leaving, she inquired about the skeleton. Hou Ji said, "According to the coroner's assessment, this person was in his early thirties and died ten years ago. The cause of death is still under investigation. County Magistrate Tang ordered the search of all the official records from the past ten years for verification. However, for officials of the sixth rank and above... perhaps they need to consult the Ministry of Revenue for approval."

Mo Sufang was imprisoned in the county jail. As soon as she arrived at the door, Zhao Heng came to ask for instructions, saying that Mr. Dong had committed suicide in prison and no useful information was obtained from the interrogation.

"What a pity." Wen Wan sneered: "These bandits are cruel and ruthless to the common people, but they are loyal to their master Mo Sufang."

Zhao Heng said, "This Shopkeeper Mo seems to be a tough nut to crack. I'm afraid it will be difficult to pry him open."

"Where did you catch her?"

"Their boat ran aground on a shallow beach. Local fishermen saw the muzzle and became alert, so they quickly reported the incident."

Zhao Heng seemed to be hesitant to speak. He had been running around for two or three days, thinking about revenge for Wei Zheng. He chased them along the coast day and night, his eyes red from exhaustion. Finally, he lived up to his expectations and successfully captured Mo Sufang and the others.

"Have you ever used torture?"

Zhao Heng shook his head. "Her legs were hit by artillery fire and she's bleeding profusely. If she's tortured, I'm afraid she won't be able to hold out for long."

"Have a good doctor try to keep her alive. Once her wounds are healing, start sprinkling them with salt and pepper water. It won't kill her immediately, but it won't keep her alive either."

Zhao Heng's heart skipped a beat.

He secretly thought that Wen Wan was worthy of being the Marquis's woman, with such a vicious heart and methods!
The young lady and the young man looked so cute, as if they were carved out of jade.

Wen Wan walked into the damp, cold and cramped cell, and saw Mo Sufang lying on the bed with disheveled hair and a foul smell on her legs. After seeing Wen Wan's face, the hatred she had that day was gone.

Instead, it's very peaceful.

Wen Wan said straight to the point: "Mr. Dong has already confessed."

Hearing this, Mo Sufang turned her head slightly and sneered, "Sowing discord? But you underestimated me, Mo Sufang, and Mr. Dong too much. He will never betray me."

Wen Wan was shocked and thought to herself that Mo Sufang had such a vicious look.

The original plan to instigate a fight between the two of them didn't work.
