183 Making an Example
“Why did you choose Zhu Qing?!” Hearing Lin Suisui’s choice, Pei Qian was surprised.
He had already read the contents of that book! Over the years, the crimes committed by this father and daughter were innumerable. However, from his perspective, Doctor Zhuang, who had infiltrated the borders of the empire, deserved to be killed!
Just the soldiers he had killed all these years were enough for his entire family to be killed!
It was because of his malicious intentions that many soldiers who could be cured had no choice but to amputate their legs and even died! Those soldiers should not have died!
However, Lin Suisui chose Zhu Qing, who seemed to have committed relatively light crimes.
“Firstly, Doctor Zhuang’s crimes are indeed innumerable, but no matter what mistakes he made, he was definitely benevolent to Zhu Qing.
No matter what, he adopted Zhu Qing from among the refugees and raised her. He had taught her medicine and cared for her deeply. He had fulfilled his duty as a father!
In fact, despite the previous torture, he had never said anything bad about Zhu Qing! He was loyal to their father-daughter relationship!
On the other hand, Zhu Qing was cowardly and ungrateful. In order to survive, she didn’t hesitate to accuse her father, who had been taking care of her since she was young!
Yes, in terms of crimes alone, Doctor Zhuang was indeed more vicious!
However, from a moral point of view, Zhu Qing was even more despicable. She owed Doctor Zhuang for raising her!
Since her actions have already made Doctor Zhuang suffer heartache, she should suffer the rest! This way, she can be considered to have fulfilled filial piety towards Doctor Zhuang. That’s the only fair punishment.”
Lin Suisui didn’t hide anything and told Lu Ze and Pei Qian her reasoning.
“That’s only one of the reasons. What about the second reason?!” Pei Qian found Lin Suisui’s reasoning amusing. He nodded and waited for the second reason.
“As for the second reason, I’m biased against Zhu Qing. I don’t like her, so I want to see her suffer. Isn’t this reason enough?!”
Lin Suisui raised her eyebrows as she spoke self-righteously.
“Of course this reason is enough!
“Madam Liu, your second reason is much more convincing than your previous righteous and upright reason!” Lin Suisui’s reason completely exceeded everyone’s expectations. Pei Qian couldn’t help but slap the table and laugh. He looked at the little girl in front of him, who was holding a teacup and smiling. After so many years, even though this little girl had experienced so much unfairness and mistreatment, she was still so carefree and bold!
“Madam Liu, you’re clearly taking revenge for personal grievances! What emnity do I have with you for you to treat me like this?! Aren’t you afraid of retribution for being so ruthless to me?!”
Zhu Qing didn’t expect this. She had hidden behind Doctor Zhuang in order to keep a low profile, but Lin Suisui still called her out.
Moreover, from their previous conversation, she could guess that what awaited her definitely wasn’t a good outcome, so Zhu Qing screamed in protest.
After all, if she still didn’t speak now, she probably wouldn’t have the chance to speak again!
Originally, Qian He wanted someone to stop her from talking, but Lin Suisui raised her hand slightly and stopped him. She put down the teacup in her hand, turned around, and slowly walked in front of Zhu Qing. She looked down at her as she said indifferently, “Yes, I used my power to take revenge for personal grievances. So what?!
Actually, if you just targeted me, I wouldn’t do anything to you! After all, I’m just an ordinary person, not money. How can I be liked by everyone?!
Besides, some people would even find money smelly!
“If you can’t stand those soldiers trusting me and treating me with respect, you can use your medical skills to prove yourself and win the respect of more people to defeat me!
“But you didn’t. You followed in your father’s footsteps. You wanted to harm the soldiers I saved with difficulty and aggravate their injuries. Then, you would push the blame onto me!
Setting me up was a good idea to gain others’ trust and support!
But have you ever thought about the consequences for the soldiers you used?!
They might have to get their limbs cut off or even lose their lives! Just because you were indignant that others praised my medical skills, you wanted to jeopardize the patients’ lives!
What right do you have to say that you’re a doctor? What right do you have to praise your medical skills?!
You think you can frame others at will, but won’t allow others to give you a taste of your own medicine?!”
Lin Suisui explained her disdain for Zhu Qing clearly.
“That’s right! It’s impolite not to reciprocate! How gratifying!” After hearing Lin Suisui’s accusation of Zhu Qing, Pei Qian laughed even louder and didn’t hide his praise for Lin Suisui. Then, he turned around and instructed Qian He to poison Zhu Qing.
Although the herbs Lin Suisui used to concoct medicine weren’t expensive, she had an impressive prescription. She used the ordinary-looking herbs stored in the refugee camp to concoct this top-notch poison.
Zhu Qing struggled with all her might, but how could her current strength compare to that of Qian He’s powerful guards? They poured the poison down his throat without much effort.
In the blink of an eye, the poison entered her throat. Zhu Qing struggled and wailed on the ground in extreme pain. The people beside her saw the wounds on her body begin to fester at a visible speed. Blood slowly flowed out of her seven orifices. Black blood gushed out from various wounds on her body. In less than ten minutes, Zhu Qing had already collapsed to the ground and stopped breathing.
“Isn’t this poison’s effect a little too strong?!” Pei Qian stared at Zhu Qing’s corpse on the ground. Even though she had stopped breathing, her injuries had not stopped festering. He frowned and suggested to Lin Suisui, “She died so quickly. She didn’t even get to suffer for that long!”
