The people watching the excitement at the door suddenly exploded.

Your wife is only worth fifty taels of silver?

Are you even human if you poisoned your wife to death for fifty taels of silver?!

People took out eggs and rotten vegetable leaves from baskets and threw them at the man's face and head.

The man was hit so hard that he couldn't open his eyes and could only bury his head on the ground again.

"Did the owner of Huichuntang really tell you that?" Shen Li waved his hand to signal everyone to stop throwing eggs.

After all, eggs are quite expensive, and it was not easy to eat an egg in ancient times.

Seeing everyone stop, the man slowly raised his head and said, "It was the owner of Baicaotang who told me to do this. I swear to heaven that if I tell even a single lie, I will be struck by lightning."

The crowd was in an uproar.

"Baicaotang, Baicaotang again! The medicine there is so expensive!"

"Right, right, right. Not only are they expensive, but they're also fake! Last time I went to Baicaotang, I took my pulse and got some medicine, but it didn't work at all. I asked someone who knows about herbal medicine to take a look, and they found that some of the herbs were just grass roots, not herbs at all!"

Yun Chenyu had somehow mixed into the crowd and called over Song Ci, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture.

"Do you remember that a clinic called Chunxitang opened in the capital last year?"

"I remember, I remember. The doctor at that clinic was very skilled, and the herbs they sold were very affordable. My mother caught a cold and went there to get medicine. She was cured after taking two doses! Later, my wife fell ill and wanted to go there for medicine, but for some reason, it was closed. Could this be related to Baicaotang?"

"There should be a connection. The two pharmacies were very close to each other at the time. When I passed by Baicaotang, I saw the owner of Baicaotang staring at Chunxitang. The venom in his eyes was almost bursting out!

Later, Chunxitang was forced to close down because of the incident of selling fake medicine and poisoning people.

Hearing everyone's discussions, the Jingzhao prefect was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

Damn it, how dare they do such a dirty thing right under his nose.

This shows that they don't take him, the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture, seriously!

"Come here! Take this bastard to the government office!" Song Ci said angrily, "Send another small team to bring the owner of Baicaotang back for trial!"

"Yes, Lord Song."

When the man heard that he was going to be taken to the government office, he stamped his feet in anxiety.

"Doctor Shen, please, please forgive me. I won't dare to do it again. I was instructed by the owner of Baicaotang. Please ask the government officials for mercy..."

Shen Li sneered in disdain.

"Don't blame others for everything! You just do whatever the owner of Baicaotang tells you to do. If he tells you to poison yourself, can you do it yourself?"

The man lowered his head and stopped talking. He really didn't know how to defend himself.

"Come here, take him away!" Song Ci shouted.

After the man was taken away, his wife stood there blankly, as if she had lost her soul.

Shen Li asked softly: "My wife, are you okay?"

The woman finally came to her senses and said hesitantly, "It's okay."

"Leave a man like that!" Shen Li advised. "The fact that he poisoned you to death for fifty taels of silver is enough to show how cruel he is. You must stay away from him!"

The woman wiped the tears from her eyes and nodded, "I know. When I get back, I'll find someone to write a divorce letter and have him sign it. From now on, he and I will go our separate ways and have nothing to do with each other in this life."

Shen Li gave her a thumbs up.

If a woman can realize this, she will not worry about her anymore.

The owner of Baicaotang was taken to the government office and confessed everything before he was tortured.

He admitted that he had teamed up with the man to bring down Huichuntang Medical College, and that he had also ordered the poisoning of people in Chunxitang.

Every time this happens, one of them is doomed.

This time he was the one who was finished.

After hearing his confession, the prefect of Jingzhao ordered the closure of Baicaotang, and the owner of Baicaotang was also thrown into jail.

From then on, there was no more Baicaotang Pharmacy in the capital.

It is said that Shen Li emptied out the mansion of Zhao, the Minister of Personnel, and the whole mansion was in chaos when they woke up.

The personal servant of the eldest son of the Zhao family, Zhao Fan, would get warm water and wait for Zhao Fan to get up and wash his face and rinse his mouth after getting up in the morning.

But he searched for a long time and couldn't find the basin.

Later he found that there seemed to be nothing in the yard, and he immediately became alert.

Then the other maids and servants in the yard also came to report that everything in every yard and every room had disappeared overnight.

They immediately knocked on Zhao Fan's door.

After knocking for a long time, there was no echo, so everyone decided to push the door open and go in directly.

When the bedroom door was pushed open, the maids and servants were stunned!

Zhao Fan was lying naked on the ground, with his concubine, whom he had snatched from the street, hugging him.

There was not a single piece of cloth on the two people, they were completely naked, it was so eye-catching!

Many maids and servants screamed and covered their eyes.

Some people even started vomiting after seeing this scene.

"Is this...is this our young master?"

At this moment, all of Zhao Fan's hair was pushed away by Shen Li, leaving him with a big bald head. Everyone was a little afraid to recognize him.

"Of course he is. This is our young master, but his hair...his hair is gone." Several servants confirmed through their fingers that the man lying on the ground was Zhao Fan.

But, when I helped him to bed last night, his hair was still tied up high. How come... his head turned bald overnight?

Zhao Fan's personal servant bravely stepped forward and stretched out his index finger to feel his breath.

And breathing.

He shook Zhao Fan vigorously, "Master, Master, wake up!"

I don’t know how much time passed, but Zhao Fan finally slowly opened his eyelids.

He had just woken up and his consciousness was still a little fuzzy, but an inexplicable anger surged in his heart.

"What the hell are you guys doing? How dare you be so bold as to disturb my sweet dreams? Are you all tired of living?"

He roared, his voice echoing in the empty room.

At this moment, Zhao Fan felt his head was extremely dizzy, as if a heavy burden was pressing on it.

While mumbling to himself, he reached out and rubbed his aching forehead vigorously, trying to wake himself up.

After a while, he finally opened his eyes and began to scan the room.

The room was completely empty. Not only was there no bed or table, there wasn't even a decent piece of furniture.

What shocked him even more was that the usually charming concubine beside him was now lying naked on the cold ground just like him.

Zhao Fan widened his eyes in disbelief, suspecting that there was something wrong with his eyes.

He rubbed his eyes desperately, then blinked rapidly to make sure there was nothing wrong with his eyes.

At this moment, Zhao Fan's heart suddenly skipped a beat. An unprecedented sense of horror suddenly surged into his heart like a tide, making him tremble involuntarily.

Just at this moment, the personal servant who had been guarding nearby came forward tremblingly, holding a bronze mirror in his hand.

"Master, look at your head..."

The servant stammered, his face full of fear.

When Zhao Fan took the bronze mirror and looked at it, his face turned pale with fright, and all the blood in his body seemed to freeze at this moment.

A greasy fat man without a single hair on his head appeared in the bronze mirror.

His eyes went dark, his body fell straight back, and he completely fainted...
