Shen Zheng recalled the grudge between Luo Zhijing and Yu Zhengqing, and in just a moment she connected the whole thing together.

"You mean, the governor surnamed Lu is Luo Zhijing's father-in-law? This time he seems to be targeting Master Yu, but he is actually targeting you?!"

Shen Zheng suddenly regretted selling the grain seeds to Luo Zhijing, and blamed himself: "I shouldn't have..."

She couldn't say the rest of the words.

Because she didn't sell the grain seeds to Luo Zhijing, but to Fuzhou Prefecture. What was wrong with the people of Fuzhou Prefecture? It was a bit unreasonable for her to blame the people of Fuzhou for this.

She changed her words and said, "I should have made it difficult for Luo Zhijing at that time and shouldn't have let him get the rice seeds so easily."

Seeing her so upset, Yu Zhengqing felt better for no reason. He asked, "Why didn't you think about making a killing from him at that time?"

"How can I kill him?" Shen Zheng sighed, "The wool comes from the sheep. Isn't killing him the same as killing the people of Fuzhou? This is such a conscienceless thing... I can't do it."

This damn soft-hearted person!

Yu Zhengqing laughed and consoled him, "I think the same as you, so I won't blame you. And Luo Zhijing probably didn't know about this. I know him well, and he's not that bad."

Playing with the lives of the people in the palm of his hand is definitely not something Luo Zhijing could do.

"So this matter is directed at Governor Lu?" Shen Zheng seemed to be asking, but was actually certain.

"Yes." Yu Zhengqing nodded, "That person is very cruel. This time it seems that he attacked Jiusi, but in fact he was the first to show his weakness."

Shen Zheng tilted her head in confusion: "What do you mean, sir?"

"You have been appreciated and rewarded by His Majesty, and my position in the court has also risen. In addition, my father has expressed his support for Jiusi, so he really began to be afraid."

Shen Zheng immediately understood the meaning of his words, "He is afraid that you will be the first to deal with him after you gain power, so he wants to strike first. Now you, me and the uncle are all in Liuyang Mansion, only Master Yu is alone, and he happened to be sent to his territory by His Majesty..."

Directly attacking the younger generation, this is a real villain.

"You were too martial at that time and didn't let the uncle help you, otherwise how could it be his turn to jump around now?" Shen Zheng slapped her thigh and said this after the fact.

Yu Zhengqing narrowed his eyes and looked over. "Are you complaining about my indecisiveness?"

"No, no." Shen Zheng waved her hands quickly, "I just didn't expect that the other party would be so unethical. Now that Master Yu is alone, it gives him a chance. But fortunately, the devil is one foot high and the Tao is ten feet high. Our 'Taoist' will be here in about two days. Let's see how they fight."

In fact, when Yu Zhengqing first heard about this, he was still a little panicked. How could he not panic when his son, who had just started out, encountered such a strong enemy, and the other party was also a ruthless person?

But unfortunately, the teammates were too helpful. Not only did they analyze the situation thoroughly, they also thought of solutions and even put them into action.

Then what's there to panic about?

Besides, the Yu family kid is not a freeloader. Yu Zhengqing had a hunch that Yu Jiusi might have discovered something strange and started investigating.

"Things will be resolved if we take our time, and people will be at peace if we take our time." Yu Zhengqing breathed a sigh of relief, "We have done what we should do, and we will see how Jiusi responds. He has to grow up eventually. If he can't win even with our help behind the scenes, then he really should gain another two years of experience."

Shen Zheng clenched her fist with one hand, flicked out her thumb, and praised: "You have a good attitude. I was so worried that day that I couldn't sleep."

She was not afraid of losing, but the stakes she would have to pay after losing were too heavy for her to bear.

Yu Zhengqing coughed lightly and turned his face away.

Who can sleep?...

"Oh, right." After saying one sad thing, Shen Zheng remembered another one, "How's the investigation going on with the 'miracle doctor' and the 'miracle medicine'? Is the person still there?"

Yu Zhengqing frowned when he mentioned this. "The person is still here, and he hasn't moved. What you said in the letter is not unreasonable, but without solid evidence, I can't arrest him rashly."

How many eyes were watching him in the government office? He had to convince everyone.

"I didn't run away..." Shen Zheng murmured in confusion.

If someone is caught doing something bad and his first reaction is not to run away, it is either because he has a clear conscience or because he is confident that he will not be caught.

So will the “miracle doctor” be the former or the latter?

"Could it be that I am being mean?" Shen Zheng had some self-doubt. "But Doctor Li is not here right now, so I have no way to find out whether the medicine is real. What about Liu Ji? Is he willing to stop taking the medicine and cooperate with you in the investigation?"

Yu Zhengqing shook his head. "That man is also stubborn. I sent someone to look for him. As soon as I asked him for help, he acted as if I wanted to kill him. He kept crying out in pain and said that he still had to serve the Great Zhou and assist the governor of Wei. Do you think I can force him?"

Shen Zheng always felt that Liu Ji was bringing personal grudges into the matter, but on second thought...

Taking "miracle drugs" inherently carries a gambler's mentality, betting that the drug is really a miracle drug, and that taking the drug will make you immune to all poisons.

So who would be willing to believe that the magic medicine is fake? Who would be willing to admit that they made a wrong bet?

Yu Zhengqing sighed, "I sent someone to buy the medicine and showed it to many doctors in the palace. They could only see some of the ingredients in it and found that it was indeed a tonic medicine, but they didn't see anything unusual. Then I sent people to look for the people who were taking the medicine, but the people didn't want to stop taking the medicine for the experiment. Even if I added silver, they didn't want to, saying that the miracle doctor warned them that if they stopped taking the medicine, their illness would get worse."

That strange feeling surged into Shen Zheng's heart again, making her deny her previous self-doubt.

Isn't this kind of warning intended to prevent people from stopping taking medication?

"Why not find someone who has never used this medicine to test it..." As soon as this thought came to her mind, she suppressed it, "No, if this medicine really has problems, having someone test it would be harming people."

"Testing medicine?" Yu Zhengqing looked at Shen Zheng and thought for a while, "I know."

Shen Zheng felt something was wrong and hurriedly said, "What do you know? You are the head of Liuyang Mansion, you must not take risks! If you can only test the medicine on yourself, then I will do it!"

Yu Zhengqing laughed and scolded, "Hurry, hurry, hurry, don't rush when things happen. You have healthy arms and legs, how can you test the medicine?"

"You can't try that!" Shen Zheng came forward, looked at him seriously and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on the doctor and the person who used the medicine. If there is really something wrong with them, they will always be able to find clues!"

She suddenly thought of what Liu Ji had said before, and her eyes lit up: "Is there a child next to the doctor? Children are often unstable, why don't we try to start with him? We can go up and tempt him, and if tempting doesn't work, we can use intimidation!"
