Chapter 263 The Magistrate’s Wife is from Western Qiang

Michigan.

Shopkeeper Lu hurried to Xiao Chenze's room and knocked on the door gently, "Master, the girl has woken up."

Xiao Chenze had just finished copying all the bills, and the ink was not dry yet, and it was all over the table and the floor.

Hearing the shopkeeper's voice, he glanced at Shen Li. Shen Li moved her lips slightly and whispered to him, "I'll be right there."

He turned around and said to the door, "Got it."

The footsteps of Shopkeeper Lu gradually faded away. Xiao Chenze stood up and began to sort out the bills. Shen Li swiped the bills into the space without thinking.

"Come on, just put her in the 'cage' and let her dry out. Let's go check on her quickly before she falls asleep again."

After saying that, he flashed into the space, Xiao Chenze opened the door, and the two walked out together.

......

There were several people in this group who had pretty good medical skills. When they first rescued the girl, they were all dumbfounded when they saw her condition.

Not only was he only breathing his last breath, but he also had a huge wound on his head.

It must have been soaked in water for too long. The bleeding stopped, but the wound was turned outward, revealing the pale flesh, which was very scary.

I touched his forehead again and it was burning with fever.

We quickly worked together to find a solution. We had all the medicines in the yard, and we just took the best one, but it still didn't work.

He had no choice but to let Manager Lu go and talk to the master. Shen Li, who was hiding in the space, heard everything clearly. As soon as Manager Lu left, he hurried out of the space and discussed it with Xiao Chenze.

Then, Xiao Chenze called other people out of the girl's room in the name of understanding her condition, asked Shen Li to come out of the space, and quietly gave the girl two small injections.

Shen Li crushed several kinds of pills and mixed them into the medicine the girl had prepared, then watched as those people gave it to the girl to drink.

After several times, the girl's fever finally subsided and her breathing gradually became stable.

Look, the next day, the girl finally woke up.

......

Seeing Xiao Chenze coming over, everyone hurriedly stood up and saluted, "Greetings, Master."

"Everyone, get up." Xiao Chenze knew that Shen Li was following him in the "cage." He didn't say much, just nodded lightly and said to Shopkeeper Lu, "Everyone, leave."

"Yes." Everyone was well-trained and turned around and retreated when they heard their master's order.

The door curtain was lifted, and Shen Li instantly flashed out from the space and followed Xiao Chenze into the house.

The girl who had just woken up was half lying on the head of the bed, looking at the two people who appeared in front of her with fear.

"Don't be afraid," Shen Li walked up to her and reached out to touch her forehead. "Well, today is much better than yesterday. I don't have a fever anymore."

"It was...was it you who saved me?" the girl asked timidly.

Shen Li chuckled and said to her, "Don't be afraid, I saved you."

The girl's tears flowed down, and she struggled to get up. As soon as she moved, she felt dizzy and fell back weakly.

"Don't move," Shen Li's face became serious. "What do you want to do? Your wound hasn't healed yet. Are you trying to kill yourself?"

The girl took a breath and felt the dizziness ease a little. She slowly opened her eyes and tears welled up in her eyes again. "This servant wants to thank you for saving my life."

"No need," Shen Li bent down and checked the wound on her head. "How is it? Do you feel nauseous or want to vomit?"

"I'm fine as long as I don't move," the girl whispered. "If I move, I get really dizzy and nauseous."

"Yes, this is a concussion," Shen Li said as if speaking to Xiao Chenze, "She is in this state and cannot be moved for the time being. Please have someone protect her and don't let the police find her."

When she heard the word "official", the girl nervously grabbed the quilt and her face turned pale in an instant.

"You don't have to be afraid. We won't hand you over to the government." Shen Li's voice seemed to have a power that could calm people down. After hearing her words, the girl slowly relaxed her grip on the quilt.

"I'll ask you a few questions, and you answer me honestly." Shen Li said.

The girl nodded slightly.

"You saw the prefect meeting someone, so the prefect's wife silenced you. Is that what happened?"

The girl's eyes widened in horror, and she stepped back hard, her teeth chattering.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to help you," Shen Li pulled a stool over and sat down, patting the girl's hand. "Think about it, if I wanted to kill you, why would I save you?"

"Think carefully about what happened back then. Whatever I asked, your answers would only benefit you. To put it bluntly, I wanted to kill the prefect and his wife. If they were dead, wouldn't you be safe?"

When the girl heard this, her eyes turned red again. She was about to speak, but she opened her mouth and then closed it again.

"What are you worried about?" Shen Li asked, "Why don't you think about why I know these things?"

The girl stared at her closely.

"Because we have our own people stationed in the prefect's mansion? I'm here to verify the prefect and his wife's crimes. Our people are still in there. Otherwise, how would I get the information?"

The girl's expression relaxed a little.

"You don't believe me?" Shen Li asked.

The girl shook her head slightly.

"So you just don't dare to say it? Am I right?"

The girl hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Why don't you dare to say it? Can you tell me the reason?" Shen Li asked again.

After a while, the girl replied in a mosquito-like voice, "The master has a strong backer. You can't catch him at all."

"We can. We're here to investigate his background. No one, including him, can escape. Tell me everything you know and I'll help you. Once this matter is over, I'll arrange for you to live a good life somewhere where no one knows you. What do you think? Do you want to go? Or do you want to go back to your hometown and find your relatives?"

Hearing her say this, the girl's tears started to flow again.

Xiao Chenze stood aside, getting a little impatient. Just as he was about to ask Shen Li to get some medicine powder for the girl before asking, he heard the girl say, "My hometown is close to Xiqiang. My family suffered a disaster, so I fled all the way here. Everyone in my family starved to death on the way. The prefect's wife is from Xiqiang. Seeing that I can understand her hometown dialect, she bought me. It has been three years now."

Xiao Chenze and Shen Li looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.

The prefect's wife wasn't from Southern Xinjiang? She was actually from Western Qiang.
