The man took a deep breath and watched as the bloody dagger touched his eyelids.

Shao Qingyuan was just trying hard when the man finally shouted, collapsed and closed his eyes and shouted, "I'm not an assassin, someone bought me to embarrass Mrs. Shao, no matter what I do."

Shao Qingyuan stopped, "Someone bought you?"

"Yes yes yes." Seeing the dagger moved away, the man nodded hastily, his nose and tears poured out, "Someone really bought me and asked me to find an opportunity to question Mrs. Shao's identity, it is best to provoke a dispute, Making Mrs. Shao the target of public criticism and ruining her reputation, that person also gave me my invitation, and he gave me fifty taels of silver. I just wanted to make some money, I'm really not an assassin..."

How did he know it was so difficult to earn fifty taels of silver, the man clearly told him that there was nothing wrong, but it was just a matter of saying a few words, but now it was clear that he was going to lose his life.

Shao Qingyuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who bought you?"

The man was about to cry again, "I don't know." Seeing Shao Qingyuan approaching with a dagger again, he hurriedly said, "But I can hear the man's voice, really, I can hear it. The man is here today. In the lobby, he is one of the doctors, the fifth doctor in the third row."

Doctor Wei?

Shao Qingyuan and Gu Yundong looked at each other, didn't they follow You Li to find Bai Yong before, and secretly said that Gu Yundong was not worthy of one of Shao Qingyuan's five doctors?

Shao Qingyuan nodded and glanced at the man on the straw pile, "You'd better say the truth, I'll investigate now, if you lie to me, huh..."

The man shuddered violently and shook his head hastily.

Shao Qingyuan asked his name again. After learning that his name was Zhao Jun, he knocked him unconscious, and then covered him with a cloth again, and this time he blocked his mouth by the way.

After he was done, he got up and said, "Let's go, let's find Uncle Wei."

Gu Yundong and Shao Qingyuan left the firewood room, and the sky was slowly darkening.

When they returned to the lobby, there were still many people, but some people left.

At least those scholars have left. After all, this other courtyard is located in the suburbs. When they came, they rode in a carriage rented by Pingnan Hou, but they had to walk when they went back.

Apart from some nobles, the rest are the hundreds of doctors.

The food has already been served in the other courtyard, and Yi Zilan is exchanging cups with everyone, talking about the affairs in the capital in a straightforward manner.

But Shao Qingyuan and the two listened for a while, and they both heard something.

It looks like it's just normal chatting and bragging, but Yi Zilan actually consciously revealed some developments in the capital, indirectly explaining the emperor's great achievements and deeds.

Seeing Shao Qingyuan and the others, Yi Zilan hurriedly greeted them.

"Where did the county master and the county horse go? It made me look for a while. Today is your big day. How can you be missing in this kind of celebration?"

When everyone heard the name of Shao Qingyuan, the county horse, the expressions on their faces suddenly became a bit strange.

Shao Qingyuan and the two were helpless. At this juncture, it seemed too abrupt to want to leave, so they could only be pulled by him to eat and chat.

When they were full of food and drink, the two were able to escape.

Most of the remaining guests rested in the courtyard tonight, and Yi Zilan was also sent to the guest room early to rest.
