I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

387 Interrogation

As soon as Lin Suisui said this, the citizens, who were originally agitated and wanted to push forward, quickly retreated, leaving an empty space at the entrance of the medical center.

Because Lin Suisui had pointed out the county governor’s residence this time, County Governor Tang, who was guarding not far away, received the news immediately. After knowing that it was Lin Suisui who came out to maintain order, his first reaction was that something was wrong. Before the bailiff outside the carriage could finish reporting, he quickly instructed the bearers to carry him over.

He couldn’t be blamed for being surprised. After all, he had always thought that this woman lived in the inner residence.

Even if her medical skills were unparalleled, she was still a woman. Now that there was such trouble in the medical center, how could such a woman rush to the forefront? At first, he thought that she would probably get someone to inform her husband to come out and resolve this matter.

In that case, he could wait a little longer. After General Gu played the bad guy and finished dealing with the people, he could be the peacemaker. That way, this matter could be resolved, and he wouldn’t offend anyone.

It was simply a good scheme.

However, he didn’t expect that the person who came first wasn’t General Gu, but General Gu’s wife!

If anything happened to General Gu’s wife, he would probably lose his head!

The commotion caused by County Governor Tang’s arrival quickly alarmed the commoners in the outermost circle and they quickly made way to let County Governor Tang and a group of bailiffs in.

“What are you guys doing?!” Compared to Lin Sui, County Governor Tang was definitely more intimidating. He only stood on the steps, but many citizens already wanted to escape.

They had been too worked up just now. Now that they had calmed down and thought about it, they discovered many strange things.

They looked at the armored guards who came out of the room to pave the way for Madam Pei just now, as well as the crossbowmen holding crossbows…

They shouldn’t get involved in this messy situation!

If things went wrong, they might really lose their head.

“The patients here were sent over by me for the medical center to help treat. The patients are merchants rescued from the patrol camp and are involved in a big case related to northern barbarian spies!

“On the account that you guys were misled by the rumors created by people with ulterior motives, if you guys leave now, I can let it go. But if you continue to cause trouble, don’t blame me for being rude. I’ll detain all of you and sentence you to be sent to repair the city wall!”

County Governor Tang explained the main point of his trip to the crowd very straightforwardly. “As for the plague you’re talking about, these merchants were poisoned by the northern barbarians!

Do you guys want to be captured and interrogated as northern barbarians as well?”

Compared to those who spread rumors to beguile people, County Governor Tang’s words were clearly more convincing. At this moment, many people calmed down and thought of the benefits of the medical center. They were afraid that the people in the medical center would remember them and refuse to treat them in the future, so they quickly ran away before the matter blew up.

Seeing that there were only a few people left in the crowd, no matter how indignant the ruffians who had been bribed could be, they could only watch as the situation was brought under control.

Of course, this didn’t mean that there were no bold people among the troublemakers.

Someone in the crowd shouted, “What if you’re in cahoots with this medical center? Is there anything you can show to convince us to believe in your words?”

At this moment, the crowd was spreading out, so that person took this opportunity to shout and escape when no one was paying attention. However, he didn’t expect that although the bailiffs brought by County Governor Tang didn’t notice him, the guards that Su Le had previously dispatched to various high places did notice him.

With Lin Sui’s order, the hooligan, who had only run a few steps away, was pressed down on the spot by the guard who rushed over. He was dragged over and forced to kneel in the empty space at the entrance of the medical center.

“Since you have doubts, why did you run away after asking the question?” Lin Suisui sneered at the hooligan who had yet to give up struggling. “When I first arrived in the northern region, I heard someone mention that County Governor Tang of Cloud Mountain City is a good official who treats the people like his own children. He has always been amiable and magnanimous.

Although what you said just now was offensive, it wasn’t overboard. With County Governor Tang’s amiable personality, he definitely won’t blame you. In that case, why did you run?”

“I just don’t want to cause trouble!” Seeing that Lin Suisui was willing to give him a chance to speak, the hooligan naturally didn’t let go of this opportunity to explain. He looked up at Lin Suisui and said matter-of-factly, “County Governor Tang is an official, so of course a commoner like me is worried about getting into trouble!

Besides, what I asked just now was reasonable.

The plague is a serious matter. If the two of you are mistaken, or if the two of you clearly know about it but are hiding it, how can ordinary people like us know?”

“If it was really the plague and I was a cowardly person like you said, I wouldn’t have come out of the medical center today. Besides, County Governor Tang wouldn’t have come over to explain things to all of you!

After all, according to you, our lives are much more precious than yours!

“So can you understand my explanation now?” Lin Suisui was patient. She wasn’t angered by the hooligan’s rebuttal. Instead, she explained to him in a voice that everyone around her could hear.

When the hooligan heard this, he felt that it was about time she let him go, he quickly nodded in agreement and said a bunch of insincere compliments to Lin Suisui in front of everyone. Then, he waited for her to let him go.

Lin Suisui smiled at him from the beginning to the end. It wasn’t until he finished praising him that she said calmly, “So, aren’t you afraid that your boss will deduct your money after you go back?”
