There was a moment when Su Muge wanted to cry. Why was she so unlucky? She dared not to think if her identity was unveiled, what would happen to her. Would this royal highness, the King of Jin, get angry with her and directly put her to justice?!Indeed, one could never win a game played with God!Xia Houmo kept his promise and had her scalpel made before dark according to her previous drawings. After knowing his identity, she was no longer surprised at his high efficiency.It would only be a joke if a person who was among the highest rank of people in the country like him had no ability superior to a normal village man.Su Muge took a scalpel and checked it carefully. It’s rougher than a modern scalpel, but she believed that if he had been given two more days, he could have made the scalpel even better than the modern one.Just as she was about to cut her fingertip with the edge of the scalpel as a trial, her waist wa

“Lord, the man has confessed.”Xia Houmo was reading through the map, and he paused.“He confessed?”“Yes.”In fact, Donglin was also a little suspicious. After all, last night, the man was tortured almost to death and he said nothing. The man was stubborn and reluctant so that Donglin thought it would take him another two or three days before he would tell them anything. But now, he had confessed, not even managed to hold on to the next morning.Gently stroking his jade thumb ring, Xia Houmo asked in a low voice, “What did he say?”“He said it was on that Eldest Miss Su.”Xia Houmo lifted his dark eyes. “On Su Muge?”“Yes. He said he had hidden it on a boy, but when he went to the boy later, it was gone. The eldest Miss was with him all this time, so he said the eldest Miss must have taken it.”Donglin glanced at Xia Houmo, and continued, “That child, Tong’er, was br

Donglin took out a black porcelain bottle and put it on the table. “The map on the child showed because of this potion.”After Xia Houmo agreed to give her one night, Su Muge had managed to cool herself down.Su Muge put Tong’er on the table, with his whole back exposed, she soon took out a handkerchief to cover most of his back, leaving only half a palm of it outside for observation.Xia Houmo’s eyebrows raised a bit.A pungent smell went out as soon as Su Muge opened the porcelain bottle Donglin had given her.“I need to fetch something from my room,” Su Muge said, looking at Xia Houmo.He nodded.Not until she went out of his room, did she find that her back was soaked in sweat.She swore to herself that once it was all done in Zhou county, she would definitely keep her distance from this man!Inside the room of Xia Houmo, Donglin was looking at Tong’er on the table with

“Lord Xia, what are the things in common of those people?”“Adviser Li said the sick ones are from the same village.” Su Muge frowned. “They are from the same place?”“Yes. Now the flood has receded, would you like to go and have a look, Lord Su?”Su Muge didn’t answer. The patients’ situations were still unsure, and she would be worried if she just left.“The Magistrate of Zhou county was flooded away in that village,” Xia Houmo said in a deep voice, as he noticed Su Muge’s silence.“What!” Su Muge lifted her head in shock.“Since Lord Su is unwilling to go, just stay there and cooperate with the second prince. Donglin, get the horses ready.”“Yes, my Lord.”If there was something related to the disease in the village, it wouldn’t be a waste to go.“Lord Xia, I would like to go with you.”Xia Houmo’s lips slightly raised, and he walked out

Su Lun looked at Su Muge, who showed him a gesture to keep silent.“Who is it?” Su Muge lowered her voice and asked.“Lord Su, it’s me,” answered Granny Fang.“Granny Fang, what’s wrong?”“Well, Lord, you didn’t have breakfast and I was afraid that you might be hungry, so I brought some food.”“No thanks, Granny. I ate some solid food outside. I am not hungry at this moment. You can go back to work.”“Ok, then I will go back first. If you are hungry, please let me know.”“Fine.”The sound of Granny Fang’s footsteps drifted away.Su Muge went back to her chair to sit down, looking at Su Lun, whose face was full of questioning.“Father, believe it or not, at this point, we should think about how to solve the following matters.”Of course, Su Lun knew what’s more important, and Su Muge was right on one thing.If she hadn’t pretended
