The hand clutching the medical box tightened slightly, yet Lu Tong's expression remained calm as she looked up at him.
"Doctor Ji, do you have evidence?"
He was bluffing her.
The fragrant pill had long been burned to ashes by Qi Yutai, and she had dumped them beneath the window sill of the Board of Rites Office. The rain and wind over the days had washed everything clean. After all this time, Ji Xun couldn't possibly have any evidence. Although she didn't know how he found out, the little bit of red aromatica fuzz from He Xiu alone was not enough to convict her.
"There's no such clause in the Liang Dynasty Laws."
"Of course, I do."
Lu Tong's pupils contracted.
Ji Xun's voice was very cold.
"Although the prescription you gave to Vice Minister Jin didn't list red aromatica, I had someone search his medicine dregs."
"In the dregs, there was still the residue of red aromatica."
Lu Tong was momentarily stunned, but after a brief confusion, her whole body suddenly relaxed.
