“Ah!” The servant girl cried out in pain.
She was slapped again and again. It was so painful that she did not even have the chance to scream.
It also woke Mrs. Sun up. She walked out to see the scene and asked the servant standing at the side to understand the situation.
After understanding what was happening, she felt a lingering fear in his heart. If Maquis An Le died in their residence, then her husband’s life would probably be in danger.
She immediately got her personal maidservant to call the servant girls, who lived with the murderer, over. Afterward, she stood silently at the side and watched the servant girl get beaten up.
After the beating, the servant girl was already in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat. Her small face was pale, and there was even blood at the corner of her mouth.
“I’ll give you one more chance. Tell me, or I’ll turn you into a military prost.i.tute.” Lord Sun said.
The servant girl shivered after hearing this. Military prost.i.tutes? She had heard it from others when she was traveling. No one who went in could live for more than half a year.
Lord Sun saw that she was afraid and added, “Your three closest relation of kins will also be exiled.”
“I, I will speak.” The servant girl shook her head and replied weakly.
Lord Sun didn’t say anything after hearing that. Instead, he raised his hand and asked someone to take her down from the stool and put her on the ground.
“It’s Mrs. Song. I am Mrs. Song’s subordinate. She sent me here to spy on the important matters in the residence for her and then instructed me to try, try my best to become your concubine.”
“You’re just a servant. You’re not worthy.” Mrs. Sun replied unhappily.
At the same time, she held a grudge against Mrs. Song. What did she mean by sending a servant girl to be her husband’s consort? Was she belittling her?
Lord Sun’s expression was obviously not good, but this reason was still not enough for her to attempt to murder a Marquis. Thinking of this, he asked, “If that’s the case, you should be threatening Marquis An Le. Why would you want to kill him? If you kill him, do you think your Master Song can enter the medical center?”
“I, I’m not sure either. Madam, no, Mrs. Song arranged it this way.” When the servant girl said this, she also felt that something was wrong. However, at this point, it was too late to say anything.
“The medical center doesn’t only select medical skills but also medical ethics and character. These two are the most important.
“Do you think I’ll take in a murderer who would fake carrots as ginseng?”
“I had originally planned to teach him a lesson after the medical center was established.
“Now it seems that there’s no need to wait.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he looked at Lord Sun.
Lord Sun nodded and sent someone to find the judge. He raided the Song family’s house overnight and sent the servant girl to prison.
As for Mrs. Sun, she called the three people who lived with the servant girl over and interrogated them. However, she did not get anything out of them.
They only knew that she spent more money than them and liked to go out to buy snacks.
After Mrs. Sun told Lord Sun the news, Lord Sun recalled what had happened since he took office. After confirming that he had done nothing wrong, he no longer cared.
The next day, after Lord Sun, Gu Chengrui, and the judge entered the cell, they found out that Mrs. Song was dead. There were poisonous fangs hidden in her mouth, and she died from poisoning.
The three of them immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and interrogated Dr. Song.
He confessed quickly and told what he knew.
It turned out that he was originally a subordinate of Magistrate Zhao, but because he mainly sold fake medicine, no one knew about their relationship.
As for Mrs. Song, he guessed she belonged to the Marquis of Ding’an, but he knew very little about the specifics.
“Has your wife seen anyone recently?” Gu Chengrui asked.
“Yes. Think about it carefully. If you can atone for your sins and make contributions, perhaps I can spare your life.” The judge added..
