After He Li, follow the reckless man to flee the wasteland and farm the fields

Chapter 604 Investigation
"Look, Qing'er, this is the medicine bag."

Xiao Zeyu ordered the eunuch to show Su Qing the medicine packs he brought back from the medicine storehouse. Su Qing poured out one pack for inspection, poured out ten packs in a row, and Xiao Zeyu followed suit. The medicinal materials were exactly the same as the prescription, and there was no mistake.

So where is the problem?

"This realgar is fake."

Su Qing picked up the realgar and handed it to Xiao Zeyu. The color and shape were so similar that it could be confused with the real thing. Apart from the realgar, there were also some more valuable medicinal materials that were replaced blindly.

Xiao Zeyu put the realgar under his nose and sniffed it, his face changed suddenly, he actually moved such a big hand and foot under his nose, because the two fake medicines caused the entire army to be annihilated, and the weapons were robbed, causing huge losses.

"I'll order someone to investigate right away."

Xiao Zeyu's face was cold and stern, all the imperial physicians involved in the dispensing of medicines must be arrested, the director of the imperial hospital, the eunuch who purchased medicinal materials in the palace, and the officials in charge of medicine merchants in the court must be arrested and tortured.

"it is good."

"Take this medicine."

Su Qing handed over to Xiao Zeyu the magical medicine for forced confession brought back from the Miao people. If the situation was serious, conventional punishments could not be used. It was necessary to ask whether these people were for profit or spies.

Xiao Zeyu left with the medicine and didn't come back all night. The imperial guards in the palace were dispatched, and the imperial physicians who were sleeping at home were secretly arrested, and all the people in the palace who had been exposed to medicinal materials were also arrested and interrogated overnight.

Su Qing was very angry that she didn't sleep well at night. She and Xiao Zeyu had prepared so well, but the entire army was wiped out because of the two counterfeit medicines. .

The more than 3000 soldiers who died and the officers, soldiers and civilians who were killed by the breached city added up to tens of thousands of lives.

The next morning, Su Qing woke up from her sleep and found that Xiao Zeyu still hadn't come back, and the pillow was cold.

"Go and ask, how is the investigation going?"

Su Qing sent eunuchs to inquire about the situation, and the maids came into the house with toiletries to help Su Qing freshen up.

If Su Qing didn't need them to comb her hair and change her clothes before, but now her stomach is too big to move around, she would let them serve her.

The eunuch had been away for a long time and hadn’t come back. Su Qing had finished washing up and was about to eat breakfast, only to see the eunuch come back in a hurry. After entering the door, his eyes were wandering, and he hesitated to speak. Su Qing ordered coldly:
"Say."

"Yes, investigation. Yes. There is a problem with the medicines in the Su family pharmacy. Because they know that the Su family is the mother's family, the imperial physicians did not dare to say when they found fake medicines. In addition to the two fake medicines, there are also ginseng musk and some Important medicinal materials have also been replaced with counterfeit ones."

The Su family pharmacy is the ancestral business of the Su Qing family, and it is now run by the uncle of the Su family. The uncle of the Su family and Su Hanxuan are brothers, and the ancestral business is inherited by the eldest son, so Su Hanxuan went out to start his own business.

Originally, brothers were not much relatives, and Su Hanxuan had no choice but to leave his ancestral home, so Su Qing never saw this so-called uncle when he returned to his father's house.

But after Su Qing became a concubine, this uncle came to recognize his relatives. When he found his father, he had to go back to worship his ancestors. He also wanted Su Qing to go back and recognize his ancestors.

It's just that Su Qing was attacking Dongying country at that time, so he didn't go back to recognize his ancestors, and he still didn't meet his uncle's family.

When Su Qing returned to the capital, pregnant women could not worship their ancestors, so the matter was left alone.

Su Qing is a stranger to the uncle's family. I don't know how they became imperial merchants?Does the matter of uncle becoming an imperial merchant have anything to do with father?

Inflicting such a huge loss to the country is a crime of extermination. Uncle and the others are too bold to act recklessly, for fear of implicating their father and younger brother.

Su Qing couldn't take it anymore, so she went to the Compassionate Ning Palace to find her mother to understand the whole story.

Before Su Qing went to the Compassionate Ning Palace, Yang Ruxue brought Xiaochen here, she didn't know anything yet, when she entered the door and saw that Su Qing didn't eat a mouthful of food, Yang Ruxue frowned.

"Qing'er, why don't you eat?"

"Mom, I have something to ask you."

Su Qing sent Xiao Qi to accompany Xiao Chen out to play, and he dragged his mother into the back room.

"What is it?"

Seeing her daughter's serious expression, Yang Ruxue also became nervous.

"Mother, did my father handle the uncle's becoming an imperial merchant?"

Su Qing asked the question directly.

"Why do you ask? What happened?"

Yang Ruxue heard that her voice was wrong, and asked what happened before returning to her daughter's words. She looked very nervous and her eyes were anxious.

"Mother, tell me if Dad has manipulated this matter?"

Su Qing didn't tell mother what happened because she couldn't take care of it, and it wasn't enough to comfort her to waste time.

"After you became a mother-in-law and your father became a grand teacher, your uncle did bring his son to your father. He wanted your father to arrange for your three cousins ​​to serve as officials in the court, but your father refused. What will they say later? I don't know, I am very annoying to your uncle, he can bully your father too much."

Yang Ruxue was very angry when she mentioned that she was an elder brother. Because she gave birth to a daughter for the first time, she always disliked her for not being able to bear a son.

If it weren't for Hanxuan's firm will, he would have faced the struggle in the back house. Later, in order to monopolize the property of the Su family, the uncle only gave them a little money and drove them away.

Yang Ruxue didn't even bother to deal with this kind of ruthless big brother, saying she only had daughters?Her daughter is the mother of the country, and they licked their faces to excuse themselves.

"Did dad do the drug dealer's business?"

Seeing that her mother had such a bad opinion of this uncle, Su Qing felt that he must be able to shoddy the good and exchange the fake for the real.

"Qing'er, what happened?"

Yang Ruxue panicked, don't affect their family because of this bad uncle.

"It's not a big deal, so you don't have to worry about it, I'm the one with the big deal!"

Su Qing saw that her mother's face was blushing, so she comforted her.

Yang Ruxue mistakenly thought that Su Qing wanted to protect her elder brother's family, so she immediately said to her:
"Qing'er, don't protect their family, that family is not a good thing."

"Well, I know that a prince breaks the law like a commoner. If Uncle and the others do it, I will never let Shuisheng let them go."

Su Qing nodded, she still has a sense of proportion in this matter, let alone her uncle, even her own brothers have to kill their relatives righteously.

"No, mother has to go home."

Seeing that her daughter didn't say anything and didn't tell herself what happened, Yang Ruxue couldn't sit still and insisted on going home to have a look.

Su Qing stopped her mother:
"Mother, you can't see your father when you go home now. He should have discussed matters with the emperor in the previous court. You should go back first. I will send someone to tell you if there is anything."

"Well, you must keep your father."

Yang Ruxue had no choice but to agree, but repeatedly instructed her daughter.

"understood."

Su Qing ordered her mother to be sent back to the palace, and she asked the eunuch to bring Feng Huo here, so she was going to the court to see what was going on?Does this have anything to do with dad?
