Don't disturb me, I won't be a concubine

The controversial Zhang Shi case was finally closed more than a month after the incident. The real culprits were duly punished, and the innocent were cleared of their wrongdoings.

Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu sent Dr. Tan and his son back home together.

Seeing the old lady lying on the hospital bed, the eldest brother of the Tan family choked and knelt in front of the bed, "Mom, my son is unfilial and cannot serve the right and left..."

"Get up quickly," the old lady reached out to help him with tears in her eyes and looked at him carefully, "You have been suffering these days."

"My son is fine," Brother Tan sat down next to him, "Mom, let me take your pulse."

The old lady smiled and shook her head, "No, once I see you come back safely, all my illnesses will be cured."

Brother Tan was worried, "I have to see it myself before I feel at ease."

The old lady had no choice but to extend her hand to him.

After checking the pulse, Brother Tan breathed a sigh of relief.

When Dr. Tan saw this, he knew that nothing was serious. He withdrew his gaze and said to Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu who were sitting opposite: "Thanks to you for finding out the truth this time, we, father and son, were released from prison."

"Mr. Tan, you're welcome." Cui Qiyan said.

Dong Jiafu looked at Dr. Tan's new-born hair and couldn't help but blame herself: "It's all because of me that Zheng Chang hates his master, otherwise you wouldn't have suffered this unreasonable disaster."

"How can I blame you? It was all Zheng Chang who did the evil and killed a life in vain." Doctor Tan couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the dead Zhang Shi.

"Yes, Miss Dong, don't think so." When his father and brother came back, the sadness on Tan Hao's face finally faded away, "You can't be afraid of people like Zheng Chang. God is watching what you do, and now he will suffer the consequences. It’s really satisfying, and you deserve it!”

The old lady nodded and said: "If you can get rid of a tyrant in Linqing County, the pain of more than a month in prison will be considered in vain."

"Who will remember this? Since the accident in our family, many people who used to treat us with smiles have turned their backs and come to our door to yell at us and throw stones into the yard." After holding it in for so long, Tan Hao felt in his heart It’s not that I’m not aggrieved.

After hearing this, the eldest brother of the Tan family became nervous again and looked at his wife and children, "It's not as bad as the family. They went too far. Were you hurt?"

Sister-in-law Tan touched her son's round head and said warmly: "Don't worry, we are fine. I usually stay in the house to take care of my mother and don't go out easily. My second brother is running around outside."

Dr. Tan looked out the window. As soon as he entered the door, he noticed that the yard was messy than before. There were large and small stones piled in the corners. It turned out that their life at home was not easy.

Turning back to look at his grandson who was next to his daughter-in-law, Tan Lang felt a pain in his heart, "I'll let you suffer."

"What did Dad say? We are a family, and we should share weal and woe. As long as Dad and your husband are safe, we have nothing else to ask for." Sister-in-law Tan quickly comforted her.

"Okay, it's all over. Go and prepare dinner." The old lady was happy today and pointed at Cui Qiyan and Dong Jiafu and said, "Don't leave either, stay and have a meal together."

Dong Jiafu stood up and said, "Thank you, Master. Master and Brother Tan just came back. We won't disturb you tonight. We'll come back tomorrow."

"Okay, after staying in prison for so many days, I have to tidy up. Come on, I'll take you out." Dr. Tan stood up holding the table.

"Master, please don't come out. We have been here many times. Just go by yourself."

Brother Tan came over and said, "Dad, please rest while I go with my second brother."

The brothers sent the two out of the house.

Back at the inn, Cui Qiyan suggested: "The case is over, let's have dinner together and just celebrate Dr. Tan."

"Okay." Dong Jiafu nodded in agreement.

"I'll call you then."

Entering the room, Xia Zhi brought hot water to Dong Jiafu, "Girl, can we go back to Beijing?"

Dong Jiafu washed her hands, took the towel and wiped it, "Why, do you miss your parents?"

Xia Zhi blushed, "Don't you miss me and my wife?"

"The past few days, my mind was full of things about the master. Now I remember that it has been some time since we came out. We should go back as soon as possible."

"When are you going to leave, young lady? I wish you could pack up in advance."

Dong Jiafu chuckled, "Seeing that you are so anxious, you forgot that we did not come here by ourselves. I will discuss this with the Crown Prince later."

Cui Qiyan asked the innkeeper to prepare dinner, a table full of meat and vegetables.

Dong Jiafu was surprised when she saw it: "Why have you prepared so much?"

"I saw that you had no appetite before because you were thinking about Dr. Tan. Now that you are worried about it, you should be able to eat more, right?" Cui Qiyan raised his hand opposite her and said, "Sit down."

"The same goes for the Crown Prince. Without you, things would not go so smoothly. Zheng Chang's lack of regard for human life has a lot to do with Mr. Yang."

"I know what you mean. This time I am only responsible for investigating the case. As for Magistrate Yang, I will inform Mr. Dong when I return to Beijing and ask him to investigate. If some of Magistrate Yang and the Zheng family are found out by then, Any illegal collusion will naturally be dealt with strictly in accordance with the law."

Dong Jiafu was surprised, "It turns out you have thought about it all."

Cui Qiyan raised his lips slightly, "If I hadn't seen that he really didn't know what Zheng Chang was doing, I wouldn't have let him try the case."

"Let him personally sentence Zheng Chang to beheading. Even if the Zheng family and he don't have any enmity, they will never interact like before. When someone comes to investigate him again, maybe the Zheng family will be the first to add insult to injury."

Unexpectedly, he had planned a big move early in the morning. Dong Jiafu couldn't help but be speechless, "Being an official is really tiring, with so many twists and turns."

"Official life is like a battlefield. One wrong step can lead to disaster." Cui Qiyan poured a glass of wine for her, "Let's have a drink together?"

"Why not?" Dong Jiafu took it and said, "Do it!"

Cui Qiyan raised his eyebrows, picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly with her. Before drinking, he did not forget to warn her: "Drink slowly, this wine has a lot of staying power."

Dong Jiafu listened to the advice and only took a small sip, which made her frown.

Seeing her faces crowded together, Cui Qiyan's smile widened unconsciously.

"By the way, when will we return to Beijing?" Dong Jiafu asked slowly.

"I'll go to Tan's house tomorrow to have a look, and we'll make a decision later."

Dong Jiafu's heart tightened upon hearing this, "Master, is there anything else going on?"

"Don't be nervous, I still want to ask Dr. Tan if he has any intention to go to the capital." Cui Qiyan explained.

"I'm afraid the master won't agree. You mentioned it before, but the master is reluctant to leave his hometown."

"I think Mr. Tan has superb medical skills, and his two sons have also made some achievements in medical skills. Going to the capital will benefit more people and provide more opportunities for future generations. And when they go to the capital, you can see them often They, don’t you want them to go?”

"Of course I want to," Dong Jiafu said without hesitation, "but I still respect the master's wishes."

Cui Qiyan nodded, "I'm just suggesting that it's up to them to decide whether to go or not."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's eat the food first." Cui Qiyan picked up the chopsticks.
