"Humph, you're asking even though you already know the answer! I'm asking you, what happened to Sister Lin's death?"

Song Qingwan exerted force on her hands, and Doctor Cui's face turned pale and he could no longer scream.

Seeing that he was about to faint, Song Qingwan quickly gave him an injection so that he would stay awake and not faint even if he wanted to.

"If you don't tell me today, I will torture you to the point where you can neither live nor die!"

After Doctor Cui received the injection, the pain became much more intense and he finally couldn't hold on any longer.

The pain of being connected to the heart, coupled with the torture of drugs, will force even the strongest person to compromise.

He had to endure all of this soberly, and it felt like death.

"I say! I say, Madam, please stop it! I can't stand it anymore."

Doctor Cui was sweating profusely, his facial features were distorted, and his lips were trembling. Song Qing then pulled out the scalpel and wiped it.

"You'd better behave yourself and stop playing tricks, or I'll have plenty of ways to torture you!"

"Yes, yes, I dare not."

"Tell me, who asked you to go to Sister Lin's palace?"

"It's... it's the maidservant beside the Queen, Biyu."

"How did they ask you to do it?"

"Miss Biyu said that Your Highness Princess knows medical skills, so she asked me not to do anything else and just delay the time."

"So, this was done by the Queen."

"Princess, please don't embarrass me. I didn't harm Concubine Ru. I just didn't do anything. Someone else must have harmed her!"

"As an imperial physician, you should be curing illnesses and saving lives, but you watched Sister Lin die in front of you. This is a huge sin!"

Song Qingwan herself is a doctor. She hates people who watch others die for the sake of profit and even clear themselves of the crime.

It would be fine if there really was a grudge, but Sister Lin has never offended anyone.

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty! I will be going back to my hometown soon and will never come back. I will not be a nuisance to you."

"Haha, Doctor Cui is really naive. Do you think that if I let you go, you can return home alive?"

"What...what do you mean?"

"If General Yan hadn't saved you just now, you would have been killed by the people sent by your master."

"Impossible... This is absolutely impossible. How could those people be the Queen's men?"

Doctor Cui was in disbelief and shook his head repeatedly. He couldn't believe that after doing so much for the Queen, the Queen actually wanted to kill him.

"You really won't give up until you reach the Yellow River. Come on, bring him up."

Yan Yu waved his hand outside, and several guards carried the two bodies up. When Doctor Cui saw them, he was so scared that he closed his eyes again.

"Open your eyes and take a look. These two people were sent by the Queen. Do you think that the Queen will let you get away with keeping such a big secret?"

Doctor Cui knew in his heart that Song Qingwan was not lying. No one except the queen would do such a thing.

After all, if the emperor wanted to punish him, he could just hold him accountable openly and there would be no need to resort to assassination.

"Then what does the princess want me to do? If you want to hold me responsible, you can send me to the Dali Temple."

Zhao Huaijin couldn't stand it anymore, he walked up to Doctor Cui and kicked him twice.

"Do you think anyone can go to the Dali Temple? When Rupin gave birth, Shen Jingyi was there too, why didn't you go with him?"

Doctor Cui cried out twice and fell to the ground. He tried to sit up with the help of the ground, but found that his fingers were bloody and he couldn't do it at all.

Song Qingwan was not in a hurry, as she liked to interrogate those who were stubborn. Doctor Cui might have done more than one thing, so he would rather die than speak.

She knew Lin Wantang's situation very well. She was already in the late stage of pregnancy. A fall alone could not be so serious. Someone must have done something else.

"Doctor Cui, do you think that if you just die, all the secrets will be kept? Your wife, children and elders are all safe, right?"

Doctor Cui's secrets were exposed. An unnatural look appeared on his face and his eyes began to look around.

Song Qingwan realized that her guess was obviously correct. Doctor Cui wanted to sacrifice the car to save the king. As long as he would rather die than tell anyone, the queen would not touch his family.

But would the Queen and the Lan family be honest and trustworthy? Doctor Cui obviously trusted their character too much.

"The Queen should have heard about your rescue by now. Do you think she will think that you have found refuge with someone else?"

"Humph, as long as I don't say anything, no news will be leaked out, and the Queen will naturally keep my family safe."

"Really? Then I'll take you to see it myself!"

Song Qingwan gave Zhao Huaijin a look, Zhao Huaijin nodded, and then called Awu over.

"Master."

"Take this Lord Cui and go to their house to have a look."

"Yes, Master!"

Ah Wu picked up Doctor Cui and walked out. He leaped out of the palace in a few leaps and disappeared into the night.

"Cough...cough..."

Yan Yu coughed softly. His injuries were not completely healed. He had already used up all his strength on this trip and he was just holding on.

"I told you to rest at home, but you insisted on going. It's enough for Awu to take action in this matter."

Zhao Huaijin came over to support him, frowning. What if he developed a chronic illness?

"I can't just stay in the mansion like a useless person. I also want to help you do something."

"It's enough that you are alive. If you are really disabled, your aunt will be heartbroken."

"Then I'm going to rest now. Call me if you need anything."

Yan Yu nodded to Song Qingwan and followed Zhao Huaijin to the backyard. He had tried his best as his injuries were too severe.

Song Qingwan also responded with a grateful smile. She knew Yan Yu's body best. It was not easy for her to hold on until now.

It was almost dawn when Awu returned with Doctor Cui, who was already in a trance. Doctor Cui had completely collapsed mentally and no longer had the fearlessness he had at the beginning.

"How is it? Doctor Cui, do you still think your master will keep your family safe?"

Doctor Cui shook his head helplessly. He never thought that he would see such a scene in this life.

Just now, Awu brought him to the Cui family's mansion. As soon as they entered the door, it was quiet. There was no sound at all, not even the barking of a dog.

This strange atmosphere made Doctor Cui clearly feel that something was wrong. He pushed open the gate and shouted a few times, but there was no response, and there was no candle in the entire mansion.

When he walked into the bedroom, he found corpses lying all over the floor. His wife, children, mother, servants, not a single one was left alive.

Even the dog in the yard was killed. When he went to check, the body was already cold, which meant that his family had been killed before he escaped.

A Wu did not delay. He knocked out Imperial Doctor Cui and carried him back. If the Queen's people found out, Imperial Doctor Cui's life would be in danger.

"Hahahaha... I didn't expect, I didn't expect that I would end up like this. It's really all your own fault!"

"Doctor Cui doesn't want to avenge your family?"

"Of course I do! I will tell you right now, tell you everything the Queen has done."
