Chapter 124 Bite your tongue and commit suicide
Jin Yuyao came to Wang Jingshan with chicken soup.
Wang Jingshan looked at Tang and asked, "Why is it so strange today?"
Jin Yuyao said, "Prince An specially asked the kitchen to make chicken soup today."
Wang Jingshan was shocked and said, "Really? People can't even get enough food right now. I feel a little guilty for asking me to eat this."
Jin Yuyao said, "You should be well soon. The potion is ready now. All we need is food. The locust problem is just a matter of time. You need to get well before you can protect Prince An."
Wang Jingshan said, "What you said seems to make sense."
She handed the bowl to Wang Jingshan, who took it and drank it in one gulp.
Jin Yuyao looked at him eating and thought that he must have developed this habit on the battlefield.
Today there are even side dishes and white flour buns.
The two of them had dinner.
Jin Yuyao went out to make medicine for Wang Jingshan.
When I was about to reach the kitchen, I heard a servant and a maid talking about something.
"You said you didn't see the master today?"
"Who knows? We are just servants. We should just do our own thing and not interfere too much."
"I hope so. The worst that can happen is that they'll be sold somewhere else."
"Think about it, maybe it's not that bad."
Jin Yuyao went around and soaked the herbs for a while, then started to boil the medicine.
Jin Yuyao felt like someone was always watching her.
When I looked up, I saw the maid who delivered food today not far away.
The maid saw Jin Yuyao looking at her, smiled awkwardly, and walked over.
The maid said politely: "Doctor Jin, my name is Xiao An. From now on, you don't have to do these rough jobs yourself. I will do it."
Jin Yuyao smiled and said, "It's okay. It's not a big deal. Besides, I'm a doctor and I'm used to making medicine."
Xiao An looked at Jin Yuyao and said, "Doctor Jin, do you have any work to do in your yard? If so, just come to me. I can do everything, from washing clothes to cooking and cleaning."
Jin Yuyao said: "No thanks."
Jin Yuyao declined politely. After all, Prince An was in that courtyard, and the issue of safety could not be taken lightly.
After the medicine was ready, Jin Yuyao walked towards the yard with the medicine.
Xiao An chased after him and said, "Doctor Jin, the medicine is very hot. Let me help you."
As he was about to take the medicine bowl from Jin Yuyao's hand, she dodged sideways.
Jin Yuyao was very annoyed by this kind of person, and suddenly she became very enthusiastic and said solemnly: "Miss Xiao An, there is really no need."
After saying that, he took the medicine and left. Then he heard Xiao An muttering softly: "I really don't like helping you with the work."
At noon, Prince An came back and went straight to Wang Jingshan's room.
Hearing a knock on the door, Jin Yuyao opened it and saw Prince An standing at the door. She asked, "Why did you come back so early today, Your Majesty?"
"I left early this morning. I'll have time to come back at noon to see how Jingshan is doing."
Prince An entered the room and Jin Yuyao asked him to sit down.
Prince An looked at Jin Yuyao as she was about to leave and said, "Doctor Jin, please sit down and chat for a while."
Jin Yuyao took a stool and sat next to Wang Jingshan's bed.
Prince An looked at Wang Jingshan's face and said, "You look much better today than yesterday."
Wang Jingshan said, "I feel much better now, except for the occasional chest pain. Don't worry, Your Highness, I should be back to full strength in three to five days."
Jin Yuyao couldn't help but say, "Don't let me take care of you if you feel uncomfortable."
Wang Jingshan smiled and said, "There's absolutely nothing wrong with my body."
Prince An also advised: "Just focus on recuperating first."
After Prince An finished speaking, he sighed softly.
Wang Jingshan asked, "What happened to the prince today?"
Prince An said, "I didn't expect that Master Wang was so stubborn and refused to admit anything."
Wang Jingshan got anxious when he heard this and asked, "Is torture not an option?"
Prince An nodded and said, "We have already sent people to Madam Xu's family."
Wang Jingshan said, "I just wonder if Madam Xu knows where the food is?"
Prince An said, "Let's talk about it when you come."
Several people were looking worried.
Zhan Feng came in.
He knelt on one knee, clasping his fists, and said, "Your Majesty, Master Wang bit his tongue and committed suicide."
Zhan Feng didn't dare to look up after he finished speaking.
The three were shocked to hear the news. This master would rather die than tell the truth. Is this out of loyalty or...?
Jin Yu should think about people like Xu Huai, who are generally very wary of others. Therefore, important matters should not be placed far away from them, as that would make them feel uneasy.
Then where would he put it so that it would not be easily discovered and still be close to him?
Jin Yuyao raised her head and said, "Your Highness, please send someone to go down with me and take another look."
Prince An originally wanted to let Zhan Feng go, but suddenly remembered the unpleasantness between Zhan Feng and Jin Yuyao and shouted, "Li Feng."
Li Feng appeared with incredible speed and knelt on one knee next to Zhan Feng.
"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"
Prince An ordered, "You and Doctor Jin go down and take a look. Follow Doctor Jin's instructions on everything."
"Yes"
Jin Yuyao stood up and walked in front. Li Feng looked at Zhan Feng provocatively before following Jin Yuyao out.
Jin Yuyao came to Xu Huaishui's room and went down to the basement like last time.
This time, Jin Yuyao kept an eye on the wall to see if there were any switches or the like.
Until I reached the basement full of gold, silver and jewelry, just like last time, I wondered if I was wrong.
Now all the gold, silver and jewelry in the basement have been moved out.
Jin Yuyao kept walking around the room and the corridor, touching things.
If digging a secret passage is so difficult, is there any other secret passage?
Jin Yuyao returned to Xu Huaishui's room again.
Li Feng followed behind Jin Yuyao all the time, and neither of them spoke.
The layout of Xu Huaishui's room remained the same as before, and King An had ordered that no one was allowed to move.
Jin Yuyao felt around in every place since she entered the room, turning, pulling or pushing from time to time. After looking outside, she searched the inner room again but found nothing.
The more Jin Yuyao searched, the more uncertain she became.
Now the news of Xu Huaishui's death has not spread outside, and it will take time to bring Madam Xu back. I just don't know if the person behind the scenes knows to bring Madam Xu back, so will she be in danger?
Jin Yuyao went down the tunnel again and searched everywhere along the way, inch by inch, still unwilling to believe that there was nothing.
This time she walked around, feeling around and knocking to see if there was any space.
Just like that, you will reach the end of the passage and the stone gate.
Jin Yuyao suddenly felt that the sound nearby was not right, and it seemed that there was nothing behind the sound.
She checked repeatedly nearby and found that it was indeed empty, but how should she open it?
Jin Yuyao turned her head and looked at Li Feng behind her.
Li Feng understood and said, "Doctor Jin, please move aside."
Jin Yuyao moved away a little.
Li Feng gathered his inner strength into his palm, then slapped the spot where Jin Yuyao missed, causing dust to fly everywhere.
Jin Yuyao blocked it with her sleeve, and when she opened her eyes she saw a hole as big as a bowl inside.
She walked closer to check it out in surprise.
