The group's favorite, the blind princess is both a doctor and a poisoner

"Huo! You're talking nonsense!" Ye Zizhuo shouted angrily, "It's clearly you who's turned your back on your promise. The deposit has already been delivered to you!"

Bai Mu followed up with a scolding, "Report to the police? Great! Let the officials see who is the black-hearted one!"

Seeing the middle-aged man calm and composed, it was clear that he came prepared. Su Yue saw that his eyes were slightly cold, and a voice came from behind, "The prefect has arrived——"

Du Shi, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, was dressed in official uniform and walked over surrounded by yamen runners. His official hat was spread out on his feet and trembling slightly, his chin held high, looking very majestic.

"What's the fuss about?"

With his eyes half-closed, he glanced at everyone present with contempt, which was completely different from his previous servile appearance in front of Xiao Heng and others.

The middle-aged man stepped forward, bowed and saluted, "I am your humble servant, Your Excellency."

Du Shi nodded slightly, his attitude still arrogant.

"It turns out to be Master Huo."

"Yes."

Hall Master Huo smiled and told him about the dispute between Ji Medical Hall and Huo's shop. Du Shi listened and accidentally met the eyes of the young man in white. He felt as if he had seen that look somewhere before. The cold eyes made the back of his neck feel cold.

"Please, sir, make the decision for me."

The person beside him bowed slightly. Du Shi withdrew his gaze and cleared his throat. "Ahem...Are you doctors from Ji Medical Hall?"

"Exactly."

"You said you paid a deposit, but the Huo Family Pharmacy refused to acknowledge the money. Do you have a deposit deed?"

"This..." Ye Zizhuo paused, looked at the doorman not far away and said, "We came to get the medicine just now and handed him the return contract, but he didn't return it to us."

The doorman who was pointed at threw up his hands and said, "How is this possible? Doctors, please stop insulting me! You didn't give me anything!"

"You're talking nonsense! Sir, he's lying. If you don't believe me, you can search him!"

The doorman was so frightened by the shout that he trembled on the ground.

"Your Excellency, the prefect is wise. I am only a doorman, and my job is just to pass messages. How dare I take back such a valuable thing as a deed? The master has rules. If I mess up, I will be beaten to death!"

"That's right," said Hall Master Huo. "Anyone who comes to the pharmacy to pick up medicine must first hand the deposit and return contract to our hall manager for review."

"My Huo family has been supplying medicinal herbs for many years, and this is the rule. It has never been changed!"

"That's not right!" Ye Zizhuo pointed at the doorman and said anxiously, "You were the one who said the manager was away and asked us to give the things to you!"

"Okay!" Bai Zimu shouted coldly, "So you're deceiving us!"

"What a lie, it's clearly you..."

"Okay!" "That's enough!"

The young man's clear voice and Du Shi's strong voice sounded at the same time.

Du Shi had heard of the name of the miracle doctor Bai He a long time ago. He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling that he was very familiar with the name, but he just couldn't remember it.

"Jiyitang has always been a benevolent medical institution that helps the people. With the free medicine and the opening of a clinic, I'm sure it cost a lot of money. Since the clinic isn't for profit, it's inevitable that there will be a shortage of money."

Hall Master Huo curled his lips, "But this kind of deception is definitely not a good thing!"

"you..."

Glancing at Su Yuejian's cold eyes, Ye Zizhuo, who was about to speak, closed his mouth awkwardly.

"Divine Doctor Baihe, regarding today's matter, can you possibly take out the deposit and return the deed?"

“I can’t.”

Su Yuejian answered without hesitation.

"Master!" "Miraculous doctor!"

The people behind him were getting anxious and angry, and Su Yuejian lowered his eyes.

His voice was calm. "In the past, it was Li Jingzhu who made the deal with Hall Master Huo. Today, my two disciples are unfamiliar with the matter, so it seems there was a mistake."

"When Doctor Baihe said something was wrong, I thought..."

"I said it was a mistake." Su Yuejian interrupted him, "It's just a misunderstanding. It's not a good thing for Master Huo to be so aggressive."

Hall Master Huo's face darkened for a moment, then he said, "But it was you, Ji Medical Hall, who started the trouble first! Look how badly you've injured our people!"

Then he continued, "Gathering a crowd to fight in the city will result in a fine of fifty coins for minor offenses and detention in the prison for fifteen days or more for serious offenses."

Glancing at the injured thugs around him, Du Shi said in a deep voice, "Come here, take these people to jail for me!"

After saying that, the yamen runners were about to step forward and take action, "Wait--"

The young man shouted to stop them and stood in front of them. Du Shi was displeased to see that a commoner like him dared to resist the officials. The young man swung his sleeves and put his hands behind his back. The sunlight shone on his white clothes, making them look extraordinarily clean, and the red badge on his waist was particularly eye-catching.

Su Yuejian slowly walked a few steps closer and saw the red jade pendant on her waist clearly. A strange look flashed in Du Shi's eyes, but disappeared in a flash.

"Master Du, the doctors in our Ji Medical Hall don't know how to use fists or kicks, how could they possibly injure them like this?"

"You're the ones who hurt me! You two doctors don't know how to fight, but the guards you brought with you are very ruthless!"

The Huo family thugs made an angry accusation.

Su Yuejian raised her eyebrows and turned to look behind her. The guards were a little at a loss when they saw the young man giving them an approving look.

"With so many eyes watching, Doctor Baihe, do you still want to deny it?"

Hall Master Huo sneered, and saw the young man's pink lips curled up into a smile under the half-mask.

"So many eyes are watching." Su Yuejian looked at the people around him, "I have something to ask everyone."

"I wonder whose people started the fight first between Jiyitang and Huojiatangpu today?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the people who were watching the excitement began to whisper to each other, and a few who had watched the whole process spoke up.

"I saw it. The Huo family's thugs came out first!"

"Right! That's right, it was the Huo family who beat up Doctor Bai first, and then Doctor Ye went to break up the fight, and was beaten up too!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Later, the medicine boy went to call for the guards, and then the fight with the Huo family broke out."

Someone sighed, "Oh, otherwise Doctor Bai and Doctor Ye would have been beaten to death!"

Seeing the young man in white nod, Master Huo didn't quite understand. Glancing at Du Shi's unhappy expression, he felt puzzled and dissatisfied.

"Boy! What do you mean by this!"

"Look at how fluently Master Huo recited the laws just now. How come? Is that the only one he knows?"

Su Yuejian sneered, "Article 234 of the Tianjin Law states that if a conflict becomes serious and leads to provocation, the person who fights back in self-defense is not guilty."

The smile on Hall Master Huo's lips froze. The voice of the young man in front of him was clear but very compelling.

"Master Du, am I right?"

Hall Master Huo turned to look at Du Shi. Their eyes met, and Du Shi looked away first.

"That's true." Du Shi nodded. Bai Mu and Ye Zizhuo were delighted, but then he said, "But just now, Hall Master Huo said that it was your Ji Medical Hall that started the fight. So it seems both sides are at fault. In my opinion, why not shake hands and reconcile? What do you think?"

"Why?" Bai Mu was unwilling, "Master, we..."

"Since the prefect has said so, I am naturally willing to do so."

Understanding Du Shi's gaze, Hall Master Huo immediately found a way out, "Doctor Baihe, harmony brings wealth. I will not bother with you about what happened today!"

Without waiting for Su Yuejian's answer, Du Shi nodded and said okay, then turned around and left with his followers.

"Congratulations, my lord."

Hall Master Huo bowed, glanced at the young man in white, curled the corners of his lips, flicked his sleeves, snorted coldly, and returned to the mansion.

"Somebody come!"

"Clear the clutter at the door!"

The steward raised his eyebrows, his smug smile glaringly.

"you!--"

Ye Zizhuo dragged his injured leg, and every slight movement caused him to cry out in pain.

"go back."

Su Yuejian stopped the two unwilling people and asked the guards to carry them back carefully. She glanced at the arrogant servants of the Huo family in front of the red gate, and a cold light flashed in her eyes.
