Chapter 1093: Why is this dragon girl different from what I imagined?

"Shilang Li is paralyzed and ill, unable to come?"

As night fell, torches were lit up and down the Xuanwu Gate, but Li Zhi, who had been waiting for a long time, looked calm and fell silent after receiving such a reward from the chamberlain.

After a while, the saint's feeble voice reached the ears of the chamberlain: "Let Dr. Liu from the Imperial Medical Office diagnose Mr. Li. He is Sun Zhenren's direct disciple and has excellent medical skills. I can rest assured."

Empress Wu was listening on the side, knowing that this reassurance was a double entendre.

If Li Jingxuan was wise and followed Yang Su's story, refusing to take the medicine prescribed by the doctor and voluntarily dying in bed, then Li Zhi would give up and spare the entire Li family.

If Li Jingxuan's lust for power persists and he wants to make a comeback, he will follow in the footsteps of the Yi tribe, a group of drug traffickers.

Ming Chongyan below was unaware of the conversation on the city, his eyes were shining, hoping to see Li Jingxuan's ashen expression.

Unexpectedly, he didn't come. The sage above had already passed down the decree.

Everyone stopped waiting and sent the elixirs into the elixir furnace, destroying them one by one.

When all the cloud pills were turned into completely inedible waste, the Queen of the City returned to the palace, and the people under the city also returned home.

Ming Chongyan looked intently into the alchemy furnace, and then took the opportunity to say goodbye and bowed heavily to Li Yan.

it is more than words.

Li Yan returned the gift and was in a happy mood.

No matter how tortuous the process was, the unsolved case was finally revealed and the murderer was brought to justice.

But don't slack off.

And one more thing.

The real culprit in the scholar's poisoning case.

The murderer may have been the victim before, but in this case, he was already the perpetrator.

Not only did it kill the scholar Zhang Yang, but it also caused more than fifty poisoned scholars to miss this year's imperial examination.

And Li Yan avenged the people who died in vain in Jiangnan, so it was only logical that he should arrest the murderer and close the case and end everything.

"Let's settle it!"



In the early morning of the ninth day, Li Yan took Di Renjie and Guo Yuanzhen, selected a group of patrol soldiers, and walked to the Imperial City Gongyuan.

In front of the school building, Dr. Chen was talking to two assistant doctors.

Li Yan originally thought they were discussing medical issues, but upon closer inspection, he realized that they were actually talking about monthly exams.

The medical subjects in the Tang Dynasty were actually divided very carefully, and all students studying in the Imperial Medical Office had an academic system.

For example, the physical therapy course lasts 3 years, the sore and primary school course lasts 5 years, the ear, eye, and oral science course lasts 4 years, and the angle science course lasts 3 years.

During the study process in the past few years, there have been many assessments. The professors and doctors of each subject must take monthly exams, while the Imperial Physician Order conducts quarterly exams every quarter. Finally, Taichang Temple conducts a general exam at the end of the year.

According to this learning system, every student who graduates from the Imperial Medical Department will be a qualified doctor.

Unfortunately, the actual situation is often quite different.

Because there were not so many qualified doctors in ancient times, there were more quack doctors than good doctors, and among good doctors not everyone is suitable to be a doctor and teach the next generation.

As a result, the system of the Imperial Medical Office was very good, but due to the lack of sufficient teachers, it was unable to train qualified students from generation to generation, and eventually had to become a teacher-student system.

For example, the two medical assistants following Dr. Chen are two of his apprentices, equivalent to graduate students led by their mentor.

Seeing Li Yan leading the team, he stepped forward to salute: "Li Jiyi, these are my two disciples. They are mainly taking care of the patients during this period."

After the two parties exchanged greetings, Chen Yuyi took his leave.

Li Yan smiled: "Thank you, you two, how is the condition of the poisoned scholar after eight days of training?"

The elder doctor Hu said: "Replying to Li Jiyi, the sage personally gave a lot of medicinal materials to replenish vitality. Now the scholars are all awake, but some people are weak and can be interrogated even if they occasionally fall asleep during the day."

Li Yan nodded: "Very good, give me the list."

He had previously determined that the murderer who poisoned and silenced the patient was most likely hiding among these patients.

But at that time, all the scholars were suffering from vomiting and diarrhea, and were basically in a coma, unable to ask questions at all.

If you wait for the poisoned scholar to recover, the time will pass day by day, and you will definitely be anxious.

However, after investigating the Jiangnan murder case and looking back at this case, not only the motive is clear, but also the scholar has been recuperated and can respond normally. If he is secretive, he must have evil intentions and the suspicion will be greatly increased.

However, Li Yan picked up the list and scanned it, but he was a little surprised: "Why are there many scholars from the Sixth School of Chang'an who were poisoned?"

After taking care of him for this period of time, Doctor Hu had already become familiar with the following: "Thirty-five people were poisoned by scholars from other states, and seventeen people were poisoned by scholars from Beijing. A total of fifty-two people were poisoned."

Li Yan thought for a while and began to assign tasks: "Huaiying, I will leave the scholars from other states to you. You are from Ming Dynasty. Talk to them and understand the situation."

Di Renjie said calmly: "I understand."

Li Yan said again: "Yuan Zhen, the scholars in Beijing leave it to you. You are a scholar in this department, and you have some common topics with them. Let's find out how the murdered scholar Zhang recommended the elixir to them.

.”

Guo Yuanzhen perked up: "Yes!"

However, after hearing this, Doctor Hu hesitated. After thinking about it, he still dared not hide it and whispered: "Li Jiyi, during my treatment, I heard a saying that Zhang Shizi's elixir was originally unwilling to be sold to Beijing.

What belonged to the inner scholar was later taken away by force."

Li Yan raised his eyebrows: "Please tell me in detail."

Doctor Hu didn't dare to make it up, so he looked at the other person: "Junior Brother Kong, you told me this, so you should explain it to Li Jiyi. Don't exaggerate. Do you understand?"

Dr. Kong was the youngest, less than twenty years old, and had not yet reached the age of 18. He could no longer hold back at the side. Hearing this, he immediately said: "Don't worry, senior brother, I will tell the truth! Li Jiyi is a scholar in Beijing."

He used his power to bully others, took the elixir by force, and even beat Mr. Zhang, and he was not even willing to give him money! Such behavior is really against the style of the Six Studies!"

Li Yan's face darkened: "Who is the leader?"

Doctor Kong said: "This is Li Shouyi, the son of the concubine of the then Prime Minister Li Shilang. The remaining Chang'an scholars who take pills are all his followers. They are always arrogant!"

Li Yan was startled, Di Renjie stroked his beard, and Guo Yuanzhen looked disdainful.

Why does this family always happen to do bad things?

Li Yan's heart was moved and he asked again: "Li Shouyi led the Chang'an scholars to bully Zhang Yang. Which scholar from outside the state said this?"

Doctor Kong said: "Many people have seen it and bullied him more than once. I heard that Li Shilang likes to abuse his wives and concubines the most. Maybe..."

"Ahem! Ahem!"

Doctor Hu quickly coughed tactically and finally blocked the second half of the junior brother's sentence.

Li Yan laughed.

A few days ago, these medical assistants would never have dared to say a bad word about Li Shou, let alone the powerful Li Jingxuan.

But now, although Li Jingxuan is still the prime minister, everyone with a discerning eye knows that he is finished, and these medical officers have begun to say bad things.

What does it mean that the situation is over?

This means the situation is over.

Of course, if it were Dr. Chen who was mature and prudent, he would not talk too much even if Li Jingxuan was about to collapse.

The young man was full of blood, and Dr. Kong had anger on his brows. He was obviously very dissatisfied with Li Jingxuan's behavior of abusing his wife to the point of madness and showing off his grief.

Li Yan smiled: "In that case, you follow Guo Wuwei to Li Shou's house and conduct a thorough investigation! Huaiying, you'd better go and talk to the scholars from other states and learn about the bullying of Scholar Zhang."

"yes!"

Di Renjie followed Doctor Hu to meet the scholars from other states, while Guo Yuanzhen took Doctor Kong to see the scholars from Chang'an.

"Li Shouyi, another son of Li Jingxuan was involved in the poisoning case of a scholar..."

"Is it a coincidence? Or did the murderer deliberately lure him into the situation?"

Li Yan thought for a while and walked towards Guo Yuanzhen.

He wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of person this Li Shouyi was.



Guo Yuanzhen led a group of patrol soldiers to the northeast corner of the school building.

The room there was the most spacious, and the wind and rain outside obviously did not disturb these scholars. They gathered together and were reading...

That's weird.

Now that the imperial examinations are over, we are still studying for nothing, so we all get together to play chess.

The black and white chess pieces that are common in later generations are not used, but the colorful glazed chess pieces, which have always been loved by nobles.

The two sides were about to decide the winner. When a young gentleman saw that he was about to lose, the scholar next to him suddenly slipped and fell on the chessboard. He stretched out his hand and pushed the chess piece to the ground.

When the young man saw it, he exclaimed: "How could you be so careless? It doesn't matter, let's do it all over again!"

The scholar on the other side, who was about to win, breathed a sigh of relief: "Shou is a great talent, I feel ashamed, so let's replace him!"

Your level is so bad, I can't even give in to the chess piece, so I'll quickly replace you with someone else to torture you.

The other scholars looked at each other and could only express their enthusiasm: "I'll come! I'll come!"

The young gentleman surrounded in the middle was Li Shouyi. He smiled and waved his hand: "Don't fight, don't fight, come one by one, come one by one!"

When Guo Yuanzhen entered, he saw this scene.

He was a little confused: "How come these scholars from Beijing recovered so quickly?"

Doctor Kong said: "It's no better than other states. They have tonics sent to their home, so they naturally recover faster..."

Guo Yuanzhen nodded and said, "Li Shouyi, right? We are the internal guards. I want to ask you about the case of the poisoning of the scholar."

A group of people walked in, and the scholars had already noticed it, but they found that the leader, Guo Yuanzhen, was only wearing a green robe, and was the lowest eighth- or ninth-grade official, so they ignored them.

At this time, the names were called, but Li Shouyi didn't even bother to stand up: "I have just recovered from the poisoning, my body is weak, and I can't stand the torment. If you want to ask anything, just ask them."

Several scholars immediately stood up and introduced arrogantly: "Li Langjun's father is Li Shilang of Xitai. Your Excellency wants to ask Li Langjun. I'm afraid it's inconvenient. I'll accompany you later!"

Guo Yuanzhen smiled, walked forward, and cupped his hands: "It turns out he is the son of the prime minister. I am disrespectful and disrespectful..."

Li Shouyi ignored it and started playing chess, but the corner of his mouth raised in a arrogant arc.

Then the second half of Guo Yuanzhen’s sentence came:

"It's just that your father is paralyzed, do you know?"
