Novel Bin Chapter 345 - 345 Mediating
For a moment, the crowd inside and outside the shop was in an uproar.
The woman wanted to struggle, but unexpectedly, guards in armor had already separated the crowd and rushed into the shop. After the general in the lead took a few steps forward and shook open a painting in front of everyone, he compared the portrait with the woman. Without waiting for the woman to respond, he waved at the people behind him. “It’s them. Take them away!”
Lin Suisui didn’t stop them. After the woman and the man had been gagged, they were tied up and taken away.
!!
After the soldiers left, Yuan Niang, who was waiting at the side, hurriedly stood up and comforted the patients and the crowd outside the shop with the shopkeeper.
Seeing that the situation was under control, Lin Suisui didn’t stay any longer. She turned around and went around the screen to the backyard.
Su Le had already arranged for someone to send the two women, who were tied up tightly, to the Imperial City’s government office. When Lin Suisui came out, the courtyard had already been tidied up. There were even tables and chairs arranged so that she could sit down and rest when she came out.
“Your Highness.” After Yuan Niang dealt with the medical center’s matter, she quickly followed Lin Suisui to the courtyard and told her the cause and effect of the commotion in the medical center in a low voice.
“Then when this so-called ‘husband and wife’ came to treat their illness, were there two women in veiled hats among the customers in the shop?” Lin Suisui put down the teacup in her hand. She wasn’t too interested in how these two people set up the scheme. She was concerned about something else.
The reason she was suspicious of the two women in veiled hats just now was mainly because she could feel the existence of Gu worms from these two people.
Moreover, there was something fishy about them appearing in the back alley of the medical center at this time.
Therefore, Lin Suisui would rather risk accusing the innocent than let any suspicious people go. That was why she quickly instructed Su Le to capture these two people.
“Yes.” The woman nodded and replied with certainty, “They were there for a while. Because there were many patients who came to treat their illnesses today and they didn’t look like women from ordinary families, I went over to ask them. Seeing that they were unwilling to say anything, I didn’t force them. I only invited them to a place with fewer people to sit and wait.
Later on, when this ‘couple’ came over, I happened to help take care of them, so I didn’t pay attention to the two women anymore. However, after everything was settled, those two people were no longer in that corner.
Could it be that there’s something wrong with those two people?”
“It’s fine. I’ll have to trouble you and Doctor Luo to keep an eye on the medical center these few days.” Lin Suisui said with a smile. She didn’t tell Yuan Niang too much. Instead, she took out a small porcelain bottle and placed it on the table for the woman. “Take this. Distribute one of the pills here to everyone in the shop every day. Don’t stop midway. Just ask me for more when you’re done.”
“I understand.” The woman nodded seriously and didn’t ask further. She only reached out to take the porcelain bottle.
After Lin Suisui instructed Yuan Niang, she seemed to have thought of something and looked at her with a smile. “Mrs. Luo and the others will be coming to Cloud Mountain City in the next two days. When the time comes, you can rest for a day and catch up with them.”
“Alright.” The woman nodded as she sent Lin Suisui out of the courtyard and into the carriage. Only then did she turn around and return to the medical center. After she closed the door, she returned to the front hall to greet the guests.
After Lin Suisui got into the carriage, she didn’t instruct Su Le to go home. Instead, she asked Su Le to bring her to Lu Ze.
As if he had expected Lin Suisui to come, when the carriage arrived at the entrance of the Imperial City’s government office, Lu Ze was already waiting there.
“Don’t be anxious. I already know everything.”
Lu Ze reached out to help Lin Suisui down, but he didn’t bring her into the Imperial City’s government office. Instead, he pulled her towards the carriage behind her. “Let’s talk on the way back.”
Although Lin Suisui also felt that it was a little strange to go back at this time, she didn’t ask further. Instead, she cooperated with Lu Ze and got into the carriage.
“I’ve already settled those two people. I’ll bring you to see them later.” Lu Ze reached into his sleeve and took out a small box for Lin Suisui. “Have you seen this before?”
“Five Poisons Token.” Lin Suisui only opened the box and took a look before recognizing the origins of two of the tokens. She couldn’t help but frown even more. “These are the token of a member of the Southern Region’s Five Poison Sect. I only found out about it after interacting with one of the commanders for a period of time when I was traveling with my mentor near the southern border.
The Five Poison Sect’s whereabouts are secretive and it’s said that their disciples are everywhere, but because of their strict sect rules, even if they’re close to us, very few people can detect their existence.
These two tokens look like they belonged to ordinary members.
However, they’re members of that troupe. I wonder if there’s a higher-ranking member in that troup.” After Lin Suisui picked up a token, she flipped it back and forth before pointing at a small flower on the token for Lu Ze to see. “Look, the flowers here belong to them.
From the scorpion token on the token, I know that they’re probably disciples of the Sacred Scorpion Sect’s White Orchid Token.”
“If they discover that these two people are missing, the remaining members will definitely come looking for them.” Lu Ze took the two tokens from Lin Suisui and put them back in the box. Then, he said in a low voice, “So we have to hurry up and ask them what their goal is.”
Lu Ze urged Su Le to drive faster.
When the two of them returned to the residence and got out of the carriage, they saw Su Qi, who had returned first, greet them with a troubled expression. He bowed as he reported to Lu Ze, “Your Highness, Mr. Pei is here.”
“Where is he now?” After hearing Su Qi’s words, Lu Ze didn’t seem surprised. Instead, he took the hand stove from the servant beside him and handed it to Lin Suisui.
Su Qi lowered his head and replied carefully, “He’s already gone to the dungeon.”
“He received the news quite quickly.” Lu Ze snorted and turned to look at Lin Suisui. “Time is tight, so why don’t you follow me to take a look first?”
“Are those two people in our residence now?” Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze in disbelief. This news was too unexpected.
