Cui Qiyan happily followed Dong Jiafu into the carriage, and the two sat down face to face in the carriage.

Dong Jiafu took out the small medicine box she had prepared, found a bottle of wound medicine, sprinkled it on Cui Qiyan's wound, and bandaged him with fine cloth.

Cui Qiyan looked at her jade-like face, and a thought suddenly came to his mind, it would be great if time stopped here. Just the two of them, no one or anything outside to disturb them.

Unfortunately, his wish was destined not to come true. Dong Jiafu quickly and expertly bandaged it for him, and while packing the medicine box, she said, "Okay, the wound is not deep, and it will be fine in three or four days."

Cui Qiyan withdrew his hand and looked back and forth at every detail of her bandaged hand.

"When did you get into the habit of carrying a medicine kit with you?"

"After studying medicine with my master, I may be able to save people if I am prepared." Dong Jiafu put away the medicine box.

"Now that I think about it, the six months we were apart was actually a good thing for both of us. It made me understand my heart and allowed you to be who you really are again."

Cui Qiyan rubbed the wound and continued: "You should not have been a maid in the Duke's palace. I am very glad that you did not make a mistake."

"Your Majesty, there is no need to keep mentioning the past matters. The most important thing now is to find out what happened to the master." Dong Jiafu stood up and opened the curtain, "Senior brother, it's almost time to take care of things."

She got off the carriage, and the slightly swaying curtain blocked Cui Qiyan's view of her.

The two of them entered the house one after another. At this time, Tan Hao was holding a food box in one hand and a heavy baggage on the other arm.

"Senior brother, let me get it for you." Dong Jiafu stretched out her hand.

"I'll do it." Cui Qiyan stepped forward to take the food box before her.

Tan Hao noticed Cui Qiyan's bandaged hand, "Mr. Cui, when did your hand get injured?"

"Oh, I scratched it accidentally."

"is it serious?"

"It doesn't matter, it's because Miss Dong was careful that it ended up like this."

"It turns out that Miss Dong bandaged it, so it should be fine."

"Senior brother, you have brought everything, let's go." Dong Jiafu said.

"Okay, I kept you waiting for a long time," Tan Hao said embarrassedly, "My mother and sister-in-law knew that I was going to visit my father and brother in prison, so they packed up a lot of things."

"It's okay, this is human nature." Cui Qiyan raised his legs and went ahead, "Let's go."

When they got outside, no matter how Dong Jiafu tried to persuade him, Tan Hao hesitated not to enter the carriage and chose to sit outside with Maofeng.

Obviously Dong Jiafu was not the only one in the carriage, and Xia Zhi was also there, but Tan Hao still insisted on blowing the cold wind outside. Dong Jiafu had no choice but to follow him.

Cui Qiyan and Ji Bai still rode in front, and the group arrived at the county government office.

Dong Jiafu got out of the car and looked at the majestic gate of the Yamen, feeling emotional. She never expected to come here again.

Cui Qiyan showed his identity in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and not long after, he saw Magistrate Yang and four or five people coming towards him in fear.

"I didn't know that Mr. Cui came from afar, but my subordinates were disappointed to meet him from afar."

"Master Yang, there is no need to be polite. I didn't inform you in advance when I came. I hope I didn't disturb Master Yang." Cui Qiyan said in a scene.

"Don't dare, don't dare. It's really a blessing for Mr. Cui to come to our small county government." County Magistrate Yang said respectfully, "Please come in, Mr. Cui."

Cui Qiyan nodded slightly and walked forward.

County Magistrate Yang quietly looked up at Tan Hao and Dong Jiafu from behind, then turned thoughtfully and caught up with Cui Qiyan.

When they arrived at the hall, Magistrate Yang invited Cui Qiyan to his seat.

"You guys should also sit down," Cui Qiyan said to Dong Jiafu and Tan Hao before he seemed to realize that he should ask Magistrate Yang, "Do you mind, Mr. Yang?"

"No, how could it be possible? Everything depends on Mr. Cui's arrangement." Magistrate Yang said with an apologetic smile.

Dong Jiafu did not feel wronged and motioned for Tan Hao to sit down next to her.

Seeing Cui Qiyan's attitude towards Tan Hao, County Magistrate Yang was extremely surprised. He secretly wondered when the stubborn second son of the Tan family met the officials in the capital?

"I wonder what Mr. Cui ordered when he came to our Linqing County?" Magistrate Yang asked cautiously.

Wherever the people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate go, everyone is in danger, lest they have done something wrong and their superiors know about it.

"Master Yang must know this person, right?" Cui Qiyan pointed at Tan Hao and asked.

"I know you. He is the second son of Dr. Tan from Hui'an Hall in Linqing County."

"This officer is here for Dr. Tan's case." Cui Qiyan took out a token from his body, "I was ordered to investigate the case."

When County Magistrate Yang saw the token, he quickly stood up and saluted, "If Mr. Cui needs anything, just ask him. I will do my best to assist you."

"I would like to meet Dr. Tan and his son first."

"They are in the prison in the Yamen. I will take you there right now." Magistrate Yang said very cooperatively.

But when they arrived outside the prison, Magistrate Yang couldn't help but stop when he saw that Tan Hao and Dong Jiafu had no intention of stopping.

"Master Cui, are these two going in too?"

"Why, can't it be done?" Cui Qiyan lowered his eyes, showing his composure without anger.

Magistrate Yang said bravely: "Mr. Tan committed a murder case, and according to the rules, visitors are not allowed."

"Oh, when did this case come to a conclusion? Let Mr. Yang identify Dr. Tan as the guilty party."

"It was an official's mistake," County Magistrate Yang quickly explained, "It's just that the evidence in this case is solid..."

"Whether the so-called evidence is conclusive will only be known after I have seen it. Mr. Yang will not forget what I am here for so quickly, right?" Cui Qiyan interrupted him coldly.

"I dare not forget..." Magistrate Yang broke into a cold sweat.

"They are just here to bring some clothes and food to Dr. Tan and his son. If Mr. Yang is worried, you can just watch from the side. If anything happens, I will take full responsibility."

"With Mr. Cui here, if you are worried about me, my lord, please come."

After walking inside for a long time, I came to the cell where Dr. Tan and his son were detained. They were held separately.

"Dad! Brother!" Tan Hao ran over with red eyes, "How are you? Have you been tortured?"

Dr. Tan was surprised by his arrival, and when he saw Dong Jiafu and Cui Qiyan behind him, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Girl Dong, Mr. Cui, why are you here too?"

He was wearing a gray prison uniform, his gray hair was messy, his figure was thin, and his dry hands were tightly grasping the fence.

Dong Jiafu saw this and felt a sore nose.

"Master, you have suffered-"

Magistrate Yang's face, who was standing behind, changed again and again. No wonder he always felt that this girl looked familiar. It turned out to be the female doctor who had worked at Hui'an Hall.

Who is she? When she was helped in court, she was the son of the inspector of Yingzhou, and now she is with someone from the Metropolitan Procuratorate. I'm afraid her identity is not simple.

And from what Dr. Tan said, he also knew Mr. Cui.

Magistrate Yang couldn't help but sweat. He didn't expect the Tan family's backstage to be so strong.
