Chapter 470: Jiang Yaqi saved him
Chapter 470: Jiang Yaqi saved him
When King Kang saw this, he thought to himself that something was wrong. Without any hesitation, he quickly hid in a small bamboo forest not far away.
Not long after, Leng Mei led a group of guards and aggressively surrounded the village where Jiang Yuli lived, and launched a thorough search operation like a carpet.
They left no stone unturned and tried to pull King Kang out of this land.
However, although Leng Mei and others searched carefully for a long time, they were unable to find any trace of King Kang.
In desperation, Leng Mei had to lead everyone to expand the search range again and continue searching hard.
At this time, Jiang Yimo was here.
Before daybreak, she received the news that the wife of Marquis Jingming had a miscarriage and was having spotting.
Knowing that the matter was of great importance, she rushed to the Jingming Marquis' Mansion without hesitation early in the morning, just to arrive in time to save the fetus in the marquis's belly.
After Jiang Yimo arrived, after some intensive and busy acupuncture treatment, the baby in Mrs. Hou's belly was finally stabilized.
Seeing that both the Marquis' wife and the fetus were fine, Jiang Yimo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Oh, this marquis’s pregnancy was full of twists and turns.
Fortunately, in the end, she and her child were safe and sound.
"My Lord, the baby in the wife's belly is fragile and will be born soon. How can we let her have a miscarriage?"
"Hey, Miss Jiang, this is all my fault." Marquis Jingming said with a look of annoyance, holding his forehead.
"My Lord, what is going on?" Jiang Yimo asked in confusion.
"A colleague invited me out for a small gathering last night, and your aunt said she wanted to eat Yao Kee's chestnuts."
"After I got together with my colleagues, I went to buy some for her."
"But not long after she finished eating the chestnut cake, her stomach started to hurt."
"We invited several doctors to our house, but none of them could stabilize the baby in Madam's belly."
Jiang Yimo frowned when she heard what Marquis Jingming said. Previously, the marquis' wife almost died because she ate something drugged. Why didn't the marquis learn his lesson?
She was really speechless.
"Does the Marquis's wife still have the chestnut cake?"
"Yes, yes, of course! There are still several pieces left. They are all kept in the drawer in this room."
While responding, Marquis Jingming turned around and went to the dressing table in the room to get the chestnut cake left over by his wife.
After a while, Marquis Jingming came out holding a small plate with a few pieces of tempting and fragrant chestnut cakes neatly placed on the plate.
He handed the plate to Jiang Yimo, who immediately took the plate, picked up a piece of chestnut cake and put it under her nose to smell it. After smelling it, her brows couldn't help but frowned slightly.
Because she clearly smelled a faint smell of medicine, but this smell was masked by the rich and sweet aroma of pastries. If it weren't for her extremely sensitive sense of smell, she would probably have difficulty detecting it.
But this alone was not enough to make her completely sure of her guess, so she took a piece of chestnut cake and threw it into her small bag, and then brought it into her space laboratory for testing.
Then she asked Marquis Jingming another question.
"My Lord, has your wife ever eaten this kind of chestnut cake before?"
"Yes, she likes to eat this kind of chestnut cake the most. She ate it a month ago and was fine."
"Okay, I understand." Jiang Yimo nodded.
Ten minutes later, the test report of the chestnut cake came out.
It turned out that someone had tampered with the chestnut cake. Who could be so cruel as to want to do such a cruel thing to Marquis Jingming and his wife, and make their family lineage extinct and without successors?
"My Lord, after a careful investigation, I have found out the truth. Motherwort was added to the chestnuts."
The Marquis frowned and asked in confusion, "Motherwort? I know about this thing. Anyone who is proficient in medicine should know it. It has the effect of promoting blood circulation."
Jiang Yimo nodded slightly, "Yes, motherwort has many functions such as promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, promoting diuresis and relieving stranguria, as well as clearing away heat and detoxifying. But why did the mastermind behind this..."
"My Lord, have you ever made enemies with anyone?"
The person who spoke looked at the powerful Marquis Jingming in front of him with a worried look on his face.
Marquis Jingming shook his head slightly, and said solemnly: "In my position, it is normal to have some disagreements and disputes with some ministers in the court due to different political views.
"But such a small matter would never make them so cruel as to harm my wife and children!"
As he spoke, he frowned, his eyes revealing deep confusion and worry.
It was as if he was trying hard to figure out who could be so cruel as to attack his closest family member.
"No, no, no, my Lord, you overestimate some people. Please think carefully about this matter and don't let others take advantage of you again."
"Okay, I'm bothering Miss Jiang again today."
"No, Lord Marquis, please don't say that. I am a doctor. If the Marquis' wife feels unwell in the next month or so, you should immediately send someone to the Evil King's Palace to call me over."
"Okay, I understand." The Marquis nodded repeatedly.
On this day, Jiang Yimo left Jingming Marquis Mansion near noon.
When they returned to the Evil King's Mansion, Feng Wuhen also came back. He told her that he had captured Jiang Yaqi and Jiang Yuli this morning.
"Your Highness, Jiang Yuli probably didn't know about this at first. It must be Jiang Yaqi's greed that caused this."
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, Jiang Yuli was probably unaware of the inside story at first."
"I guess it was Jiang Yaqi who was greedy for money that caused this trouble."
Feng Wuhen frowned, and his tone revealed that he had thought deeply about the incident.
After what happened to Jiang Qinian, he got to know Jiang Yuli better. He was not as smart as his father.
Jiang Yaqi has always been greedy, vain, and money-loving. It is very likely that this behavior was done by her alone.
However, further investigation is needed to find out the truth of the matter.
The two were chatting when the secret guard came in to report the situation.
"My Lord, Miss Jiang, after a thorough interrogation, the truth of today's incident has finally been revealed!"
"It was Jiang Yaqi who saved King Kang, but she didn't know that person was King Kang."
"That's why she dared to sell the jade pendant on him."
Shadow reported respectfully.
"Just as we expected, this was done by Jiang Yaqi." Feng Wuhen said.
"Your Highness, please release Jiang Yuli." Jiang Yimo said calmly.
Then, she looked at Shadow and said, "Shadow, please bring Jiang Yuli to the Evil King's Mansion. I want to see him."
