Nothing had happened in his yard during this period, so what was going on now? Could it be that the miracle doctor had misdiagnosed the patient's pulse?

The Duke looked up at Chu Ci in confusion. Chu Ci appeared very confident and calm. The Duke didn't even know who to believe.

The Duke tried to explain, "Divine Doctor, he has my people by his side, so he really hasn't been involved with women."

Chu Ci looked at them with amusement, "Please pay attention to my wording. I was talking about using that kind of medicine."

The Duke looked at Rong Ziyu and said, "Tell the truth."

Rong Ziyu was about to cry, "I haven't even touched any women, why should I take medicine?"

Chu Ci was silent. "How about this, have someone take out everything you ate and drank last night."

Rong Ziyu took out the medicine that the Medicine God had given him yesterday from his pocket and said, "Godly doctor, take a look. I eat the same thing every day. With someone watching over me, there shouldn't be any problems."

"I took a lot of this yesterday. It's the medicine the doctor prescribed for me."

When Chu Ci saw the medicine bottle, he finally felt relieved. Chu Xiao couldn't escape this time.

The Duke took the medicine bottle with a servile attitude, poured out a pill carefully, and placed it in front of Chu Ci. "Divine doctor, this medicine is quite effective for children."

Chu Ci looked at the pill with amusement, picked it up, sniffed it in front of his nose, and quickly put it down. Li's method was really mean, but it worked.

The corners of her tightly pursed lips curled up slightly as she looked at the Duke, "Do you know what this pill is?"

The Duke shook his head in confusion and asked Chu Ci tentatively, "I don't know."

Chu Ci shook his head. "Just tell me how much you paid for the consultation?"

"I heard it was one million taels."

"It is said that?"

When the Duke saw the excitement in Chu Ci's eyes, he felt that something was wrong. His mind was constantly wondering what had happened.

At this moment, the servant of the Qiao family suddenly came in, "Master, the wife of the Marquis of Pingyang is here, and an imperial physician has also come."

Chu Ci touched his nose. Everyone was here. Now things were going to be interesting.

"Invite them in."

"Since the imperial physician is here, you can give this pill to him to take a look. I believe he can tell the difference."

The Duke looked at Li suspiciously and handed the porcelain bottle to the imperial physician. "Please, imperial physician, check the medicine inside to see what disease it treats."

As soon as the Duke's words came out, Li's face changed almost instantly.

"What do you mean? Don't trust us?"

The imperial physician took the pills, poured one out, put it to his nose and sniffed it, then quickly put it back into the bottle. "Duke, this is a very powerful aphrodisiac."

Chu Ci folded her arms and looked at the Duke, meaning, "Take a look."

The Duke's eyes blazed as he looked at Li, gritting his teeth. "Give me an explanation. Is this the Medicine God you mentioned? Does he prescribe this kind of medicine?"

Li was frightened and took a few steps back. "No, no, I didn't know. He said he was a miracle doctor. Yes, he did say he was a miracle doctor. I was deceived by him and even paid him one million taels of silver. I am the victim."

Chu Ci nodded in agreement, "It's quite pitiful."

The Duke wanted to slap him to death, but thinking that Li was not from their Duke's Mansion, he forced himself to endure it.

This matter is not over yet.

Chu Ci tapped the table boredly, looked outside, and yawned, "It's almost time, let's speed up."

Just then a little maid came in with the Medicine God.

When Yaoshen saw so many people, Bird quietly walked to Li's side and asked quietly, "What do you want me to do?"

Li screamed at the top of her lungs and pushed the Medicine God to the ground with both hands.

"You lied to me, you actually lied to me, where is my money?"

When Chu Ci saw how into the role Li was performing, she really wanted to give her a Best Actress award on the spot.

The Medicine God was pushed to the side by Li. Seeing that everyone was looking at him unkindly, he felt a chill running down his feet. In two words, it could be summed up: fear.

The Medicine God looked at Li, walked to Li's side, and asked quietly, "What do you mean?"

"What are you here for?"

"Didn't you ask me to come?"

The two people looked at each other. Things seemed to be going wrong. What should they do next?

The God of Medicine looked at Li. What should he do next?

The Duke glared at the Medicine God fiercely, "Tell me everything, and I'll leave you with an intact body, or I'll send your entire family down with you."

The Medicine God was frightened and looked at Li, wanting her to save him.

But Li wanted to put all the blame on the Medicine God, so how could she speak up for him? She just lowered her head and pretended not to see it.

The Medicine God suddenly realized that he had gotten into Li's trap, no, on Li's pirate ship, and had become the scapegoat.

Since this is the case, he doesn't care anymore. It's better for him to die alone than for his whole family to die.

"It's like this. The maidservant beside Li gave me 100 taels and told me to pretend to be a miracle doctor and let the prince take the aphrodisiac. As long as the medicine works, it will be cured."

The Duke looked at Li who was standing aside, "Madam Pingyang, do you want to give me an explanation?"

Li looked at the Medicine God viciously. This waste, after this matter was over, she would definitely skin him alive.

"Mrs. Chu?"

Li came back to her senses and waved her hands repeatedly, "That's not the case. I didn't do that. Really not. He really lied to me."

The Medicine God didn't care about anything else. Since everything had been said, he would just say it all. At least the people around him would not be in any trouble.

"No, I didn't lie to her. She found me and I have witnesses. My friend was not far away and saw everything."

The Duke looked at the servant beside him and said, "Take someone to find the witness to confirm it."

The servant came back soon, "Master, I checked and what this fake doctor said is true."

The Duke didn't want to discuss these matters with a woman or child, so he simply said to Li, "You can go back. I will discuss this matter with the Marquis of Pingyang."

Li left angrily, the fake doctor was caught, and the others also ran away. This was a shocking piece of news.

Rong Ziyu was now obedient. He knelt down and bowed deeply to Chu Ci, "Please, doctor, save my life."

"Contact fee?"

The Duke took out 1.2 million taels and handed them to Chu Ci, "Divine Doctor, 1 million taels is the consultation fee, and 200,000 taels is your compensation."

Chu Ci took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom and threw it into the Duke's hand. "Remember, control your lower body, or don't come to me again."

After Chu Ci left, the Duke also quickly pulled Rong Ziyu away, as he still had things to do.

Not long after the two returned home, Chu Ci received the news.

After the Duke's couple returned home, they ordered people to tie up Chu Xiao. The Duke's wife even threatened to kill Chu Xiao. Since the original promise could not be fulfilled, don't blame her for being cruel.

Upon hearing the news, Chu Ci looked at the 1.2 million taels of silver in her hand. This was just the interest. She would not let go of either the Ping'an Marquis' Mansion or the Duke's Mansion.

Chu Ci returned to his yard, sat on a rattan chair, drank tea, and waited for the final news from Chu Xiao.

But until the afternoon, there was still no news I wanted to hear.

It was almost lunchtime when Qiuyue came in. "Master, there's news. It says the Master and the Madam have gone. I don't know what they said, but the Second Miss has been released."

Chu Ci fell silent when she heard the news. She had been cautious at every step and had used so many calculations, but she had not been able to kill Chu Xiao. She wondered what benefits they had used to save Chu Xiao.
