"I promise you," Wang Mian said expressionlessly.
Even if he were to die, it would only be as an insignificant watchdog.
Ajiu frantically took out her needle pouch, and the cloth instantly spread out, with large and small silver needles filling the entire bag.
Ajiu quickly inserted a few needles into Yun Hao.
She had just discovered that Yun Hao had internal injuries. These scoundrels were so cruel even to their own subordinates.
Yun Hao gasped and suddenly raised his head.
"Brother Yun Hao, please don't move." Seeing that it was effective, Ajiu quickly withdrew the needles, one by one, and reinserted them into the pouch, rolling it up and putting it back into her embrace.
"Ding dong. Merit points increased by ten. Please continue to work hard." Ajiu felt nothing from this system notification.
"Oh? It seems Miss Meng's medical skills are as renowned as they say." Wang Mian paused for a moment, but more importantly, there was the heavenly decree from the Prince:
"I chose you, and I didn't choose the wrong person. I hope you can bring me good news."
In fact, if she didn't bring good news, he wouldn't be able to keep his official position.
"Can you agree to my conditions?"
"I've promised. You go now, Zhang Mang, prepare the carriage." Wang Mian waved his hand, and the people outside prepared a carriage.
Ajiu clenched her fists tightly. As she stood up, she glanced at Yun Hao:
"Brother Yun Hao, please take care of yourself. I will be more careful and considerate in the future and will not drag you down anymore."
Ajiu gritted her teeth and turned to leave.
"Ajiu..."
Yun Hao looked back, and only after the girl got into the carriage did he retract his gaze.
"Officer Wang, I was the one who acted improperly. It has nothing to do with that girl. Nan Zhou county is plagued by plague. If you send her there, aren't you sending her to her death?"
"You should worry about yourself." With that, Wang Mian waved his wide sleeve.
"Someone, lock him up!"
Upon hearing this, the few people who had once been colleagues were stunned.
Hadn't they agreed to let him go home to recuperate?
But Wang Mian had become wary. If he kept his promise and let Yun Hao go, what if that dead girl ran away halfway?
Ajiu was uneasy in the carriage. She had saved Qian Shi and Hui'er's mother, but the snake venom was limited.
Each time the little earth dragon spat out venom, the poison sac on its head would shrink a bit.
Ajiu felt a sense of unease.
"Wait a moment, brother," Ajiu called out.
The carriage stopped abruptly.
Ajiu poked her head out, and a dozen soldiers surrounded her. "Miss Meng, we are responsible for escorting you to Nan Zhou county. Do not think of escaping. Moreover, Yun Hao has already been imprisoned. If you cannot cure him, Yun Hao will surely die."
Ajiu's mind felt like it was struck by lightning.
"Officer Wang, he is not keeping his word..."
Ajiu struggled as she was shoved into the carriage. "A bunch of bandits, all bandits and robbers..."
"Miss Meng, it's best if you stop causing trouble. Once we arrive at Nan Zhou county and you cure the patient, Officer Wang will naturally release him."
Zhang Mang, who was driving the carriage, was over forty years old and had been serving Officer Wang for more than twenty years.
"Officer Wang's position is at stake..."
"What did you say?" Ajiu was stunned, opened the carriage door, and looked at the blurry vision caused by the galloping hooves.
Soon, she couldn't let others control her. She disliked this feeling intensely. In her past life, her destiny was in the hands of others, and now, she was still being held by the throat?
Ajiu leaped out.
"Whoa..." Zhang Mang immediately pulled the reins.
Looking back, the carriage door was open, and a woman was lying on the ground behind it.
The yamen runners escorting Ajiu to Nan Zhou county were terrified and quickly rushed forward to pull Ajiu up.
"Meng Jiu'er!"
They all shouted.
"Miss Jiu'er... wake up, Officer Wang only asked you to treat the illness, he didn't say he wanted you to die."
"Miss Meng Jiu!"
Zhang Mang was terrified. He got off the carriage and stared blankly at the girl. Why was she so stubborn? She could clearly cure the illness, so why didn't she just go?
Suddenly, the villagers by the roadside gathered.
A sound of horseshoes approached from afar.
"Tuo Ba Yan, subordinate of the Inspector General, is here for inspection. Unrelated individuals, please step aside..."
