Chapter 19 The Disaster of Prison
Chapter 19: Prison disaster (This chapter is free)
For several days, there was no news about Dr. Chen in the Imperial Hospital, but the people in the Imperial Hospital were not in a hurry. Dr. Chen has always acted in a gentle manner, and I don’t know how much leave he has taken throughout the year, so I can just think that he has asked for leave.
But Fang Ling was not as leisurely as others. The time to throw the body in Tianzhuo was getting closer and closer. If he missed this time, it would be even more difficult to save the female assassin from coming out.
Moreover, if this prescription for the concealing pill can be really obtained, it will not only be used to save the female assassin, but may also be used in other places in the future.
What's even more troublesome is that he asked Lin Mowen to inquire about Dr. Chen's residence, but found that no one knew.
Early that morning, Fang Ling came to the rented house again. Just when he was preparing the honey pills to go out, a knock on the door came from outside.
"Who is it?" Fang Ling asked, feeling a little wary. The rent was given to him for three months. The landlord thought he would not come here if he had nothing to do. Who else would come to the door except the landlord?
"Open the door quickly. I am the head of the Ministry of Justice Ren Huaian. I am ordered to search for the escaped prisoners!" There was a fierce knock on the door and a rude voice from a man.
"Search for prisoner?" Fang Ling frowned, but walked over and opened the door.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw a tall and strong man in his thirties standing outside, with a beard all over his face, which was very consistent with his voice.
He was wearing the constable's clothes and a long knife hung around his waist. He seemed to think Fang Ling opened the door too slowly, so he glared at him fiercely, then looked into the yard, waved his hand and said, "Search it for me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the five or six constables behind him rushed in and began to search everywhere in the house. When Xiaobai saw such a stranger coming in, he suddenly came out of the doghouse and stared at everyone with vigilance.
Fang Ling stood quietly in the yard, watching these people rummaging through boxes and cabinets, without letting go of any place, and without letting go of many small places, as if they were not looking for people, but looking for something.
Soon, several constables came back and shook their heads one by one. Ren Huaian had no intention of leaving. Instead, he pointed to the rows of honey pills in the yard and asked, "What are these?"
"It's a pill." Fang Ling replied faintly.
Ren Huaian sneered and pointed at the outside of the house and said, "Pills? I think this house is not yours, right? I feel that renting a house to make pills is a bit suspicious, so please go to the Ministry of Justice with us!"
"What?" Fang Ling frowned. The captain didn't seem to be joking, but he actually wanted to go to the Ministry of Justice for such a small matter? Fang Ling was not afraid, but he just thought it was too much.
Ren Huaian raised his chin arrogantly and sneered: "Why, are you guilty?"
"I didn't do bad things, so how could I feel guilty? It's just that this pharmaceutical thing is so small, is it necessary to take me to the Ministry of Justice?" Fang Ling said doubtfully.
Ren Huaian snorted heavily and shouted, "Am I a captain or you a captain? How dare you question me at a young age? Take him away!"
Seeing Ren Huaian bullying others with his power, Fang Ling subconsciously touched the waist card in his arms, wondering if he should take it out at this time. However, this eunuch waist card was quite powerful, and he didn't want to reveal his identity just like this, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble, so he relaxed his hands again. Perhaps when he went to the Ministry of Justice to talk about the cooperation between him and Renxintang, it would be fine.
So Fang Ling followed Ren Huaian and his group out, and after a while, he came to the Ministry of Justice.
The Ministry of Justice is the highest judicial institution in the State of Chu. It is in charge of national criminal affairs and reviews cases determined by Dali Temple. It is known as the Three Justices of the Dali Temple and the Censorate. It is one of the most core institutions of the country. The Minister of Justice is a dignified first-rank official with a prominent position.
Whether it is an ordinary person or an official, he is full of awe of the Ministry of Justice. He naturally does not want to have any connection with the place here without any problems.
In front of the gate of the Ministry of Justice, two stone lions were hideous and terrifying. The courtyard was well connected, and there were guards with straight waists everywhere, and they were guarded with high vigilance.
Walking into the gate, Ren Huaian said to a constable under his command: "Take him to rest first, and I'll report to the head."
The constable bowed and responded, leading Fang Ling to the road to the left. Only when he arrived at the place did Fang Ling understand the meaning of rest, he actually went to the prison!
The black prison door exuded a gloomy breath. Before entering the door, you could see the eyes of wolves in the cell, as if it was not a person inside, but a wild wolf.
Fang Ling couldn't help but frown and said, "How long do I have to stay here before I can leave?"
The detective grinned and said, "Boy, are you still trying to understand why you are here?"
"What does it mean?" Fang Ling asked back when he heard the words.
The detective touched his chin and said to himself: "Why can anyone be locked in the Ministry of Justice? Then it's not overcrowded. I'll tell you the truth. You offended someone you shouldn't have offended."
Fang Ling frowned when he heard this, but for a moment he couldn't remember who had such a grudge against him. He actually wanted to bring himself to the Great Laurie of the Ministry of Justice and sort out the interpersonal network outside the palace. He immediately had a personal choice.
The detective seemed to understand his expression and smiled and said, "It seems that you have come up with it too. I'll let you go in and think about it clearly now. I'll call you later. If you hand over the prescription obediently, you can leave at any time. If you are stubborn, hey...then you will have bitter fruit."
Fang Ling's face darkened. It was indeed Yu Tiancheng's fault! Unexpectedly, he had the idea of a prescription and actually used such a bad method.
A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He had no time to bother with Yu Tiancheng, but he didn't expect that he would take the initiative to cause trouble for himself. Then he saw who laughed for the last time. He was not in a hurry to take out his waist card and walked towards the depths of the cell with the detective.
The constable stopped in front of a cell where seven or eight gangster-like people were locked in the cell. Some were big and some were thin, but their expressions were fierce. One of them was a tall man in his thirties. He had a long scar on his face, his muscles were bulging, and his eyes were very cold.
The detective smiled slightly and said, "Boy, I believe this place will let you know the benefits of telling the truth. If you know it, just call me loudly."
After saying that, he opened the cell and pushed Fang Ling in.
Fang Ling was shocked as soon as he walked over, because he saw a middle-aged man in his forties sitting in the corner. Although the man's hair was a little messy, he could tell at a glance that it was Doctor Chen!
At this time, Doctor Chen was sitting in the corner with some scars on his face, as if he had been beaten.
It seemed that when he heard someone coming in, Doctor Chen opened his eyes and was shocked when he saw Fang Ling and was about to stand up immediately.
Fang Ling hurried over and half-squatted and whispered: "The situation is special, so you don't have to salute."
"District... Your Highness, how could you be here?" Dr. Chen said in shock.
Fang Ling did not answer and asked back, "Why are you here?"
The old Doctor Chen blushed, hesitated for a moment before replying: "The minister has no other hobbies, so he wants to bet on some small amount of money. As a result, he was so lucky in the gambling house a few days ago and won too much. How could he know that the backstage of the gambling house was actually the head of the Ministry of Justice, and he was arrested in prison."
When Fang Ling heard this, he understood that the Imperial Hospital was a place in the palace after all. Gambling is a place in the palace. It is a ban on famous articles in the palace, and if you want to play, you will play secretly. However, if you are caught outside because of gambling, once your identity is exposed and you are transmitted to the palace, you will inevitably be punished.
He felt aroused in his heart and tentatively said, "You were also caught by a captain named Ren Huaian, right?"
"How do you know about Your Highness?" Doctor Chen was stunned.
Fang Ling had already figured it out in his mind at this time. It seemed that both of them were obedient to the same group of people, but it was great to be able to find Dr. Chen here.
At this time, Scarface said, "Why, you two know each other before? That's so good. Xiao An, go and catch that kid for me!"
A thin boy walked over with a sneer. Fang Ling glanced at the few people coldly and said to Doctor Chen: "Are you beaten by them?"
"Your Highness, be careful, these people are all street gangsters!" Doctor Chen quickly stood up and wanted to protect Fang Ling.
Fang Ling smiled faintly and put the doctor Chen behind his back. At the same time, Xiao An had already walked closer and grabbed him on his shoulder as soon as he reached his hand.
However, Fang Ling has been taught martial arts since childhood by Dong Canghai. He has a great foundation in both fists and feet. He stretched out his hand as slowly and fast, grabbed Xiao An's hand with his backhand, and at the same time his fingers pierced the meridians on his wrist like eagle claws.
With one hand being restrained, Fang Ling exerted a little force, Xiao Anzi's body twisted with his hands, screaming in pain.
Without any hesitation, Fang Ling slashed Xiao An's neck with a palm knife. Xiao An could not bear such force and was immediately shocked.
Seeing Fang Ling being young, he actually knocked Xiao An out of action. Scarface couldn't help but sank, "Stupid brat, how dare you do something here? Come on!"
The six gangsters immediately rushed forward and prepared to teach Fang Ling a lesson. However, Fang Ling's skills were not that simple. A trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. His fists were like lightning, his legs were like thunder, and three punches and three legs made the six people unable to resist. Then he added punches and kicked the other party unconscious to the ground.
Scarface's face suddenly changed, he gritted his teeth and stood up, rushed over with anger, swung his fist and smashed it at Fang Ling.
Fang Ling saw his situation and pushed away the attacking fist with one hand and punched him in the face.
Scar's face was not as cruel as he immediately covered his nose and started to hurt. Fang Ling did not show any mercy. He raised his leg and hit him hard on his neck, which also shocked him fainted.
After watching all this in amazement, Doctor Chen couldn't speak for a while. When did His Highness, who was usually timid, become so skilled in martial arts?
It was only a blink of an eye that it was swept eight people to the ground with such an understatement.
After doing all this, Fang Ling patted his clothes gently and said to Dr. Chen: "Can the Imperial Doctor keep this matter secret for me?"
Doctor Chen hurriedly said, "Your Highness, you are the master and I am the subordinate. Of course, I will not say much."
Fang Ling smiled and said, "I believe in Doctor Chen. Over the years, you have been counting on us as the best person in the Imperial Hospital."
Doctor Chen was flattered and said, "This is our duty as a minister."
Fang Ling said, "Then Imperial Doctor, wait a moment, I will find a way to go out together."
Doctor Chen couldn't help but remind: "Your Highness, you...can't reveal your identity. The Prime Minister is everywhere in the Ministry of Justice. If it is transmitted to the Empress..."
Seeing that he was worried about him, Fang Ling said slightly, "Do not worry, Doctor Chen, I will not be stupid enough to reveal my identity." After that, he shouted loudly outside, "I want to see you, Lord Chief!"
Not long after, the headmaster just now walked over slowly and smiled and said, "You figured it out so quickly? It seems that you are still smart."
