Chapter 263 The golden cicada escapes its shell

"Sister!" Qinghe and Lianxiang were shocked when they saw this and hurried to Fusujin.

"Hurry, please ask for a doctor." Zhao Yunan frowned and looked at Cao Qiaomu.

Cao Qiaomu waved his hand outside the hall. A middle-aged doctor carrying a medicine box walked in under the guidance of a sergeant. He first bowed to Zhao Yunan, and then leaned over to check on Su Jin who was being helped on the chair.

Some officials quickly recognized this person as Chen Hanzhi, a famous doctor in Suzhou City, a great disciple of Ma Zhongde, and also Ma Zhongde's son-in-law. He has all the medical skills and has achieved the true teachings of Ma Zhongde, and is very powerful than the blue one.

Cao Qiaomu originally wanted to invite Ma Zhongde to Wujiang, but Ma Zhongde was old after all and couldn't stand the bumps on the road, so he recommended Chen Hanzhi to him.

After Tan Zong died, Su Jin, Qinghe and Lianxiang were in pain and before the rice could enter, Cao Qiaomu was worried that something might happen to the three of them, so he kept Chen Hanzhi to prevent an accident.

Just as Chen Hanzhi was taking Su Jin's pulse, Qinghe, who was beside him, suddenly reached out and touched her forehead, and threw it to the ground with a thud, her eyes closed and she fainted.

Lianxiang saw that Qinghe was also fainted, perhaps because she was infected, her body tilted and she fainted.

At this moment, the scene suddenly became commotion. After the officials looked at each other, they looked at Su Jin and the other two who fainted on the ground.

The maid in the room hurried over and helped Qinghe and Lianxiang to the chair next to her.

Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Hanzhi took the pulse of Su Jin, Qinghe and Lianxiang one by one. Then he came to Zhao Yunan and bowed and said, "Prince, the three ladies are overly sad and have weak qi and blood. As long as you care for a few days, you will be fine."

"Take good care of them." Zhao Yunan's cold face relaxed a little. He glanced at Su Jin and the other two and instructed Cao Qiaomu in a deep voice.

"The official understands." Cao Qiaomu bowed and said.

Zhao Yunan turned his head and looked at Tan Zong in the coffin, left expressionlessly, without even drinking a sip of water, went straight into the carriage parked outside the Qian Mansion, and rushed back to Suzhou City overnight.

Zhao Yunan's coming and going hurriedly showed the anger in his heart to the outside world again. Soon, someone was burned by this anger.

Just the second day after Zhao Yunan returned to Suzhou City, Li Jimin, the governor of Changzhou Prefecture, was dismissed because his second son Li Xiang was involved in the assassination of Tan Zong. He was ordered to stay at home and be investigated by the Supervision Office.

The prefect of Changzhou, a dignified fifth-rank official, fell off as soon as he said that. The officials of Suzhou Prefecture were all frightened after receiving this news. God knew when the fire burned on them.

Not only Suzhou Prefecture, but also the entire Jiangnan officialdom was shocked, and officials were paying attention to the latest progress in the Suzhou Prefecture.

Officials in the capital also complained about Zhao Yunan's move, believing that Zhao Yunan should not act irresponsibly and rashly took off Li Jimin's official hat before investigating the truth of the matter.

However, compared to the panic of the officials in Jiangnan, the guys in the capital were more concerned about the position of the prefect of Changzhou. Unlike those empty positions, this is a real lack. If one of his own people can be placed, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to him.

After Tan Zong's first seven, Su Jin returned to Suzhou City with his coffin. Zuo Yinglong, the new Tongzhi of Suzhou Prefecture, led a group of officials to greet him outside the city gate.

Originally, Su Jin wanted to transport Tan Zong's coffin back to Tan Zong's hometown for burial, but Zhao Yunan asked her to bring Tan Zong's coffin to Suzhou City.

Zhao Yunan had already found a house for Su Jin in Suzhou City. Before he caught the Japanese bandits, Tan Zong's coffin was temporarily placed in that house.

When the Japanese bandits were caught, Zhao Yunan would use the blood of the Japanese bandits to sacrifice to Tan Zong's spirit in heaven, and then transport Tan Zong back to his hometown for burial in a magnificent manner. His move not only showed his importance to Tan Zong, but also demonstrated his determination to pursue and suppress the Japanese bandits.

The courtyard chosen by Zhao Yun'an is located next to the government office. The courtyard is green and the environment is quiet.

"Mrs. Tan, people cannot be resurrected by death. I will be mourning and following changes. If you have any needs in the future, I will do my best." After placing Tan Zong's coffin in a mourning hall that had been arranged, Zuo Yinglong put a stick of incense on Tan Zong and said to Su Jin, who was wearing mourning clothes.

"Thank you, sir." Su Jin looked sad and blessed Zuo Yinglong with a blessing.

Zuo Yinglong bowed to Su Jin and led his officials to leave.

Zuo Yinglong was a Suzhou City that had come three days ago. Sun Yan transferred him to serve as the Tongzhi of Suzhou Prefecture to assist him in handling the complicated affairs of Suzhou City.

Compared to his previous high spirits, Zuo Yinglong, who had been tempered for five years, has become mature. He restrained his arrogance and honestly positioned himself as Sun Yan's assistant, making Sun Yan quite satisfied with him.

Now, facing Tan Zong who had suffered a tragic death, Zuo Yinglong sighed in his heart. If Tan Zong did not die, he would be very willing to become friends with him.

Although the two didn't have a long time to contact, he believed that Tan Zong was a friend.

Unfortunately, God is jealous of talent, Tan Zong suffered this unexpectedly at a young age.

To be fair, even Zuo Yinglong, who has always been conceited, believes that he cannot find Zhao Yuanchang who is hidden from those subtle clues. This not only requires considerable intelligence, but also unparalleled perseverance and courage.

"Madam, the new judge of Suzhou Prefecture, Wang Hao and his family came to worship Lord Tan." Shortly after Zuo Yinglong left, a maid walked into the mourning hall and said to Su Jin kneeling on the cushion.

"Ask!" Su Jin nodded slightly at the maid after hearing this. Since Tan Zong's death, Wang Hao was the only official who brought his family to pay tribute.

After a while, Wang Hao led his wife Zhang and his two sons in. The four of them were all filial and looked sad and angry.

"Mr. Tan, I was the one who harmed you. If you didn't overturn the verdict for me, you wouldn't have been killed." With a plop, Wang Hao knelt on the soft cushion in front of the coffin and cried loudly.

"My benefactor, I will repay you for saving my life in the next life." Zhang pulled his two sons and knelt behind Wang Hao, tears falling like rain.

Wang Kun was still young, and when he saw his parents crying, he started crying. Wang Qiang was already sensible and said while crying, "My benefactor, when I grow up, I will definitely become a good official like you and arrest all the bad guys."

Su Jin was moved by the scene. Seeing that Wang Hao and others were crying miserably, she couldn't help but shed tears. At the same time, she secretly sighed in her heart that it seemed that Tan Zong did not save the wrong person. Wang Hao was not the kind of ungrateful person, and he would definitely become a great help for Tan Zong in the local area in the future.

Many people also wanted to pay tribute to Tan Zong and put a stick of incense on Tan Zong, but were stopped by the soldiers guarding the gate of the courtyard.
