Doctor Qin was surprised: "Hey, isn't his leg broken? How come he's still jumping?"

Everyone was also stunned.

Doctor Qin turned to Jing Feng while drinking and said, "Young man, this man is seriously injured. Don't let him break his arms or legs. Hold him down while I take a closer look at him!"

Jingfeng really obeyed and immediately took action to hold the man down.

Doctor Qin rolled up his sleeves: "This injury..."

The thin-faced man hurriedly said, "Doctor, you have to tell the truth. I was injured by the carriage. Doctor Li just examined it!"

Doctor Qin glanced at him, sprayed another mouthful of wine at him, and then rubbed his arm. The purple wound changed color and was rubbed off with the wine.

His voice rang out: "This wound looks like a bruise, but it's actually painted on with paint. It's not a real injury."

He snorted and said disdainfully, "This fake injury is so poorly done that you can tell at a glance. Find a professional to do it for you next time!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers were shocked.

"What? It's fake!"

"Oh, we were almost fooled by him, and we even spoke up for him."

The thin-faced man's face changed drastically. In his desperate struggle, the fake wound had been rubbed off. He wanted to curse, but he couldn't say anything at all.

Those who had helped him before, seeing that they had been deceived and used, were immediately enraged. They glared at the thin-faced man, and some even rushed over to hit him.

The thin-faced man turned pale in an instant. He argued cunningly, "Your carriage did hit me just now. The injury is fake, but you really hit me. There are so many eyes watching!"

Jing Feng sneered, "The facts are before your eyes, and you still want to deny it? What was your purpose in deliberately crashing into our carriage?"

Seeing that the truth had been revealed, the thin-faced man's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He suddenly pulled out a dagger from his pocket and rushed towards the carriage. "Prepare to die!"

Jingfeng was quick-witted and quick-handed. He took a step forward, kicked the dagger out of the thin-faced man's hand, and then subdued him to the ground.

At the same time, some people in the crowd were subdued and pinned to the ground.

Including the thin-faced man, they captured five people: Zhou San, Doctor Li, and two others in the crowd.

Jing Feng said loudly, "These people had a meticulous plan. One person took the lead, another helped to incite the crowd, including running errands, and the other two cooperated, misleading those who didn't know the truth and creating chaos. As for this doctor, he accepted their bribes and helped them to extort money!"

He pointed at the thin-faced man and said, "This man attempted to assassinate the prince in the street. I suspect the four of us are also accomplices. We will send them to the authorities for strict investigation. We will not tolerate any leniency!"

Doctor Wang was anxious: "It's unfair. I just accepted some benefits and told a few lies. I'm not an accomplice, not an accomplice!"

Jing Feng's face was gloomy and his voice was cold and stern: "Go and tell the commander-in-chief!"

After saying this, he turned to the crowd and said, "You don't know the truth and blindly join in, thinking you're helping others and doing justice, but in fact, you're being used by them and used as their knives! This is also because my master is kind-hearted and doesn't care about it. If you were caught by someone else, you would have to go to the authorities with the five of them!"

The onlookers thought about it and realized that they were just watching the fun at first, but later it was because someone said something loudly that made them feel it made sense and believed it to be the fact that they started to join in the discussion.

Who knew that this man not only cheated and blackmailed others, but also dared to use a knife on the prince?

Even though he was scolded at this time, he didn't dare to say anything and walked away in shame.

Doctor Qin took a sip of wine and was about to leave when Jingfeng called him, "Thank you, old man!"

Doctor Qin waved his hand nonchalantly, "Young man, you don't have to be so polite. I've figured it out, old man. Even if I didn't expose his fake injury, you've already planned it, and you can still find out the truth!"

Jingfeng thanked him. Doctor Qin peeked through the carriage curtains. He couldn't see anything, of course, but he knew that Prince An had been born with a disease that even the imperial physicians were helpless to treat. He wouldn't live long. What a pity!

Yan Xining watched with great interest: "I thought you only brought Jingfeng today!"

Chu Jinxun was also very excited: "Butler Wu is worried about my safety and always sends more people to follow me. But he is completely worrying too much. Who would want to take advantage of me except for someone with too much free time?"

The carriage continued back to the mansion.

The news that the thin-faced man was arrested and a group of people were handed over to the government quickly spread.

Yan Xueqi also heard about it. After returning home, she hurried straight to Tian Jiaying's yard: "Mother, there is good news today. Have you heard? That wild girl and that sick guy were assassinated while walking on the road."

Tian Jiaying's face looked extremely ugly. Just a while ago, she was scolded by Yan Xiaozhen again.

Yan Xiaozhen went to withdraw silver from the account, but there were only a few hundred taels left on the account.

In such a huge mansion, he couldn't even get a thousand taels. Tian Jiaying, who was in charge of the household, was bound to be scolded.

Tian Jiaying felt aggrieved: "I told the Marquis before that there were only 40,000 taels in the account, and you gave all that silver to that wild girl."

As she spoke, she glanced at Yan Xiaozhen.

Over the years, Yan Xiaozhen had been very kind to the three of them, mother and child, doting on her, loving her, and protecting her, and he never mentioned his original wife, Luo Yiyun.

She had arranged for someone to disguise as a kidnapper to kidnap Yan Xining and abandon her. The reason she didn't kill her immediately was to leave a way out. If Yan Xiaozhen were to investigate, she could get her back.

But over the years, Yan Xiaozhen never mentioned it.

She heard that the dead girl was living a life worse than pigs and dogs in the countryside, and thought it would be a good thing to make her live a life worse than death.

But who would have thought that now that the person was brought back, Luo's dowry was taken back first.

Today, the Marquis actually gave out such a large sum of money again. Could it be that the Marquis was deliberately giving money to that little girl?

This look made Yan Xiaozhen extremely angry: "You still say that the extra 30,000 taels are not because of your dishonest behavior? If you can't control it, then you'd better not get involved!"

Tian Jiaying was angry and resentful. She was not a concubine, but the marquis's wife. She was also angry after being scolded twice by Yan Xiaozhen. The two started arguing. Yan Xiaozhen left with a sentence: "You are not capable of doing anything good, but you are good at making things worse!" and left in a huff.

She was crying, and more of it was hatred.

She didn't dare to hate Yan Xiaozhen, so she hated Yan Xining.

Just as she was gritting her teeth in hatred, Yan Xueqi's happiness couldn't even make her hatred less intense: "How is it? Is he dead?"

Yan Xueqi shook her head: "I heard he's not dead, he's been arrested!"

Tian Jiaying said bitterly, "What a scourge that's been around for a thousand years!" She managed to survive in such a difficult place in the countryside; she married a sick man to bring him back to life; she was fine even when she encountered an assassin. How could this damn scoundrel have such a tough life?

Seeing her intense reaction, Yan Xueqi couldn't help but wonder, "Mother, were you crying just now? Why?"

Tian Jiaying speaks everything to her daughter.

After she finished speaking, she touched Yan Xueqi's hair apologetically and said, "The blue and blue Ruyi embroidered water rippling hundred-fold skirt you ordered from Yunshangju can't be purchased for the time being. We don't have the money in our account."

Yan Xueqi was furious. "I told you, why did these two suddenly appear on the street? They came here to beg for alms. Do you have any shame? No, we can't let them take this money. I'm going to get it back!"

She was going to buy the hundred-fold skirt to wear at the spring banquet. She thought the dress would stun everyone, so she put down a deposit of one hundred taels of silver early on.

If she can’t buy it, what will she wear on the Spring Banquet?

Why would that bastard Yan Xining use her money to treat that sick guy's illness?
