Rebirth of a prosperous doctor girl
Chapter 133 The Shen Family Crisis
Chapter 133 The Shen Family Crisis
April 28 is the birthday of Medicine King.
Medical officials from the Nanjing Imperial Hospital, down to Youfang Langzhong, drug dealers and farmers, and ordinary people all went to the Yaowang Temple to pay homage to the divine doctor Bian Que, and begged the Yaowang to bless their medical skills, medicinal materials business, and family members. disease.
The whole family of the Shen family was mobilized, and after offering incense at the Yaowang Temple, they had to go to Shen Hetang, the Shen family medicine shop.
The ancestors of the Shen family started their business selling medicines for treating diseases, and now they have other businesses, but the medicinal materials business has never been abandoned.
On the birthday of the king of medicine, the Shen family pharmacy will give free Dieda pills and Huoxiang pills for treating heatstroke, which has been passed down for generations.
A long queue had already formed in front of Shen Hetang's gate, and the pharmacists were busy distributing medicines.Many people received free medicine, and at the same time grabbed some other medicines to go back. Many people walked on the street with medicine bags with Shen Hetang's unique logo.
A sharp-eyed person saw Shen Yucheng and hurried over to thank Shen Yucheng.
Shen Hetang's dispensing of medicines is a big deal. Shen Yu would bring his wife and children here every year. As time passed, many people knew the Shen family.
Shen Hetang's medicinal materials are authentic, the price is reasonable, and the medicine is distributed free of charge, which is very trusted by the people of Nanjing.
Seeing his uncle surrounded by thanking people, Gu Chongyang was also very happy.
She used to distribute medicines in Liangxiang, but she never expected that Shen Hetang of the Shen family would already start distributing medicines for free. The familiar scene inspired her physically and mentally, and she pulled Shen Suying, who was eager to try, to help the man distribute medicines.
"Master Zhifu is here!"
I don't know who yelled, and I saw Dou Haoxiao, who was wearing a fourth-rank official uniform, walking over in a mighty manner, surrounded by officials.
"I've met the magistrate." Shen Yucheng followed the crowd and knelt down one after another.
"Oh, brother Yucheng is so polite." With a smile on his face, Dou Haoxiao hurriedly stepped forward to help Shen Yucheng up: "You and I are in-laws, why are you so unreasonable? Please hurry up."
"Courtesy cannot be discarded." Shen Yucheng stood up and said, "Why did your lord come here today?"
"The birthday of the medicine king is once a year. Shen Hetang distributes medicines for free every year, which benefits the hometown. It is obvious to all. Drugstores like Shen Hetang should vigorously promote it." Dou Zhifu said with a hearty smile: "As the prefect of Nanjing, I am here on the day of the medicine king's birthday. At present, in order to promote healthy competition in the medicinal material market, so that the majority of pharmacies can better benefit the people and serve the people, three pharmacies were specially selected and presented with a plaque specially made by the Nanjing government office as a commendation. A plaque must belong to Shen Hetang.”
As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, the officials behind him lifted out a thick plaque with black lacquer and gold characters, and wrote: Authentic medicinal materials and herbs to help the people.
Shen Yucheng didn't expect such a big surprise. Although Shen Hetang gave the medicine for free and didn't think about getting anything in return, the plaque sent by the prefect of Dou still surprised and delighted Shen Yucheng: "Shen Hetang, what virtue and ability, can get Your lord is so appreciative?"
"Deserved!"
Prefect Dou hadn't spoken yet, when the onlookers suddenly shouted, accompanied by crackling applause.
Shen Yucheng looked excited, and said loudly: "In the future, I, Shen Hetang, will definitely work hard to make better medicinal materials to relieve everyone's pain. I will never let down the trust and love of my lord and all the villagers."
The rest of the Shen family were very happy, Shen Suying excitedly squeezed Gu Chongyang's hand, her face flushed slightly, Shen Hetang could get such praise, the Shen family felt honored, and Gu Chongyang also felt honored.
It's just that she is not as optimistic as the others. On the one hand, she is afraid that prefect Dou will take the opportunity to win over uncle, and uncle will get on King Rong's boat without knowing it.On the other hand, she always felt that Magistrate Dou's smile was somewhat malicious.
Gu Chongyang's guess is correct, the prefect Dou really has bad intentions.Last time, when the household department came to collect grain, apart from the five thousand shi sold to Ji Rong, the Shen family still had a lot of grain left, but Shen Yucheng did not tell the truth, and even refused to resell the two thousand shi To prefect Dou, this made prefect Dou feel dissatisfied.
Later, Shen Yucheng learned that after Zhifu Dou had deducted four thousand shi of grain, he supplied Ji Rong with four thousand shi. When Dou Zhifu knew about this, his dissatisfaction with Shen Yucheng turned into hatred.
Since Shen Yucheng is so ignorant of current affairs, don't blame him for disregarding his relatives.
As the saying goes, the county magistrate who ransacked the house, the governor who killed the family, he and the Shen family are in-laws, and if they brought down the Shen family, wouldn't all the Shen family's money belong to him?He dedicated such a large amount of wealth to King Rong, so why worry about not being able to become a king in the future?
Magistrate Dou was thinking viciously, but he had a grin on his face: "Come here, quickly hang the plaque on the signboard of Shenhetang."
"Yes!"
The officials were about to hang up, when suddenly several people rushed out from the crowd, a man in his 20s was in front, and behind him were four people carrying an old man, who seemed to be seriously ill.
The man in front cried loudly and knelt down in front of Magistrate Dou: "Shen Hetang sells fake medicines, and the villain's father sees his life in danger. The magistrate must be the master of Xiaomin!"
Suddenly such an incident happened, everyone in the Shen family was stunned.
The onlookers whispered and looked at Shen Yucheng with different eyes, some with trust and some with suspicion.
"I have never heard of Shen Hetang selling fake medicines in these years. How could such a thing happen? Could it be a mistake?" Prefect Dou asked pretendingly.
"My lord, you can't be biased just because you are related to the Shen family!" The man cried even louder; "My lord, you have to decide for the villain."
Dou Zhifu looked at Shen Yucheng with embarrassment, gave him a comforting look, and then said solemnly: "What grievances do you have, tell me quickly, this government will handle it impartially, will not take sides, let alone let Fake medicines harm the people. No matter who they are, as long as they dare to sell fake medicines to harm others, the government will not forgive them lightly!"
What he said was impassioned and inspiring.
"The villain's name is Wang Er, and his family lives in Wuyue Lane in front of him. Three days ago, the villain's father got typhoid fever. The doctor prescribed a prescription. The villain has always trusted Shen Hetang, so he came to Shen Hetang to get medicine for his father. Thinking that the more I eat, the worse it gets, and I can’t get out of bed right now.”
Wang Er wiped his tears and said: "The villain thought that Dad's condition was getting worse, but he didn't expect to find something wrong with Tian Qi when he poured out the medicine residue this morning. The villain found someone to look at it. This Tian Qi is fake. , it was Shen Hetang who used Curcuma to pretend to be Tian Qi, deliberately selling fake medicines to harm people!"
Wang Er spread out a medicine bag, and held it in front of Dou Zhifu with both hands; "Please look, my lord, this Tianqi looks fine at first glance, but it is actually a fake medicine that is artificially processed and carved from Curcuma."
As soon as Wang Er's words fell, several people behind him began to cry loudly, some were crying for their fathers and some were crying for their uncles, their feet and chests dropped, they were very miserable.
Wang Er's family background is average, he planted a few acres of Susukida in his family, and during the slack season, he worked as a part-time job for the Zhao gentry in Nanjing City. He was smooth but not a treacherous villain. people who come.
If he hadn't bought counterfeit medicine, Wang Er wouldn't have the guts to confront Dou Zhifu's in-laws.
Father Wang's face was sallow, lying on the ground dying, as if he might die at any moment.
When someone is not sick, if he catches a fake medicine, not only the disease cannot be cured, but his life will be killed instead.The eyes of the onlookers looking at the Shen family gradually changed.
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help but tighten, Shen Suying held Gu Chongyang's hand tightly, and looked at Shen Yucheng with a pale face.
"Impossible!" Shen Yucheng stepped forward and said: "The Shen family never sells fake medicines, let alone deliberately use Emu to impersonate Tian Qi, Wang Er, did you make a mistake?"
"Wrong? I personally came to Shen Hetang to grab the medicine. How can I make a mistake?" Wang Er stood up and threw the medicine bag at Shen Yucheng, and the medicine scattered all over the ground: "Look for yourself, the medicine bag is clearly marked. It is your Shen Hetang's unique logo, how can you make a mistake? You killed my father, and I will fight with you!"
Wang Er's eyes were red with anxiety, and he rushed towards Shen Yucheng.Shen Qian and Shen Rang were taken aback, and hurried over to protect Shen Yucheng.
But Gu Chongyang could tell that Wang Er was just putting on a show, and the prefect of Dou must have another trick.
"Stop him!" Magistrate Dou's face turned cold, and he shouted: "Wang Er, you are so brave, you dare to commit murder and hurt someone in front of the government, what should you do?"
Prefect Dou was helping the Shen family on the surface, but in fact he was adding fuel to the fire.
"My lord!" Wang Er wailed loudly, "Master Qingtian, the villain's father was killed by someone. Instead of making decisions for the villain, do you want to punish the villain? Do we small people deserve to be punished?" People bullied me, so my father died in vain? Shen Hetang sells fake medicines to harm people, the magistrate is partial to Shen Hetang, I, Wang Er, have been wronged!"
His voice made the onlookers feel compassion, especially those who had suffered from the government, they were filled with righteous indignation and looked at Shen Yucheng and the prefect Dou indignantly.
Prefect Dou gave Shen Yucheng a very embarrassed look: "Brother Yucheng, do you see this?"
"Everyone!" Shen Yucheng said loudly: "We, Shen Hetang, will never sell fake medicines to deceive the village. I, Shen Yucheng, guarantee with my personality that this fake medicine is definitely not sold by Shen Hetang. The medicines sold by Shen Hetang every day are recorded. Since Wang Er said that it was sold three days ago, I will go and show the account book to everyone, and you will know immediately."
Gu Chongyang couldn't help being anxious, this is probably the real purpose of Dou Haoxiao and his gang, what they want is solid evidence, once uncle comes in, there must be a record in the account book.
Uncle believes in Dou Haoxiao too much, so he will definitely suffer a lot!
"Wait!" Someone said unconvinced: "Who knows if you will tamper with the account books when you go in, you should send someone else to go in and look."
Shen Yucheng had a clear conscience, so he would naturally not stop him: "That's fine, is there any fellow who can read and write willing to help with this?"
A young man wearing a scholar's turban walked out of the crowd: "I am Tang Yiqing, the head of the trial case in Nanjing County last year, and I would like to take a look at Shen Hetang's account books."
"Okay. The government has entrusted this case to the chief of the Tang case. Whether it is right or wrong will soon be settled." Dou Zhifu nodded and said: "Wang Er, bring the prescription for your medicine."
The head of Tang's case took the prescription from Wang's second hand, and followed the other two into the Shenhetang pharmacy.
Time passed bit by bit, everyone never left, they were all waiting for the final result.
Dou Haoxiao smiled but didn't smile, with a worried expression on his face, but his eyes were full of calculations.
Shen Yucheng was very calm. He was sure that he did not sell fake medicines, so he would not worry about it. With the prefect Dou's in-laws around, Shen Hetang would definitely win a big victory.
Gu Chongyang was not so optimistic, her mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of countermeasures.
After a while, the first three of Tang's cases came out of Shen Hetang, holding an account book in his hand, with a solemn face, and looked at Shen Yucheng with very unfriendly eyes.
Shen Yucheng's heart skipped a beat, and his expression changed slightly. Could it be that Shen Hetang really sold fake medicines!
No, impossible!Shen Hetang is in charge of purchasing medicinal materials is his brother of the same clan, Shen Yuluo, the fourth householder of the Shen family. For so many years, he has been attached to himself and has a close relationship with him. Years of experience in purchasing medicinal materials has trained him to distinguish medicines like a keen eye. It is absolutely impossible to buy counterfeit medicines.
But the facts were different from what he thought, and the head of the case Tang said angrily: "My lord, please take a look, this is the account book of the Shen family. On April 25, Shen Hetang sold a total of [-] medicines, of which five prescriptions are One tael of ginseng, one tael of angelica, one tael of astragalus, one tael of Atractylodes macrocephala, and one tael of Tian Qi Sanqian, all of which are exactly the same as the prescriptions in Wang’s second hand, the time and prescriptions match, Wang Er did not lie!”
Since Wang Er did not lie, it proves that Shen Hetang did sell fake medicine.
Everyone in the Wang family burst into tears and kowtowed to Zhifu Dou: "Master Qingtian, you must make the decision for us. My father has eaten Shen Hetang's fake Tianqi, and now he is alive or dead! Counterfeit medicine harms people, Shen Hetang has a black heart, Please be fair, my lord."
Suddenly someone shouted: "Fake medicine harms people, knock down Shen Hetang!"
The onlookers were filled with righteous indignation and shouted in unison: "Fake medicine harms people, down with Shen Hetang! Fake medicine harms people, down with Shen Hetang!"
Shen Yucheng's face turned pale, he didn't know what went wrong, and said loudly: "Such a thing happened to Shen Hetang. As the master of Shen Hetang, I, Shen Yucheng, will definitely give Wang Er and everyone in the village an explanation..."
But his voice alone was too small, and was quickly drowned out by the voices of the crowd.
Dou Zhifu said loudly: "Everyone, I didn't expect such a thing to happen on the birthday of the medicine king. The government will never sit idly by. Since the record of selling fake medicines was found in Shen Hetang, the government will seal down Shen Hetang and arrest the people involved. I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation.”
Dou Zhifu was stern and selfless, and his upright words calmed down everyone's anger.
Dou Haoxiao blinked at Shen Yucheng, and Shen Yucheng also knew that the current situation could not be explained by opening his mouth. He believed that with his friendship with the prefect Dou for so many years, he would definitely find out the truth of the matter. , to restore the Shen family's innocence.
Shen Yucheng nodded secretly, expressing his trust in Dou Haoxiao.
Dou Haoxiao succeeded in his treacherous scheme, but his face was full of righteousness, and he waved his big hand and said: "Come here, seal up Shen Hetang, take Shen Yucheng and Shen Hetang's staff all, and take them to the prison. The government must try this case carefully." , will definitely not wrong any party."
"Wait!" There was a clear and clear shout from the crowd: "My lord, this case is clear at a glance. It is clear that Wang Er deliberately framed and framed Shen Hetang. Shen Hetang is innocent. Why should you seal up Shen Hetang? People like you imprisoned Shen Hetang indiscriminately." , how can you convince the public?"
Everyone looked around in response to the reputation, and saw a teenage girl walking out of the door of Shen Hetang. She was as bright and charming as a morning dew pearl, and as charming as a first-blooming spring flower. Such a charming and beautiful girl made everyone present stare intently.
They have seen beautiful little girls before, but such a beautiful and dignified little girl like this one is really rare.
Seeing Gu Chongyang walking out, Shen Yucheng's expression changed, and he instinctively wanted to step forward to stop him.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chongyang secretly shook his head at him, signaling him not to speak.
Shen Yucheng hesitated for a while, and saw Dou Haoxiao's face turned cold, and his tone was very unfriendly: "Who are you? Our government has always been fair in adjudicating cases, and will never deliberately take sides. Now the evidence is convincing, it is clear that Shen Hetang bought fake medicines, you say the king Second, framed, what evidence is there?"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Yucheng's face became very ugly, and he realized something was wrong in his heart.
Dou Zhifu opened his mouth and said that Shen Hetang sells fake medicines. This is not helping himself, but clearly hurting himself!But no matter what, Chongyang can't make trouble right now, she is a child after all.It doesn't matter if he has something to do, if something happened to Chongyang, what face would he have to see his sister?
"Master Dou, this is my niece, she is still a child..."
"Shen Yucheng!" Magistrate Dou changed his face: "You Shen Hetang not only sells counterfeit medicines, but also interferes with the government's work. What should you do?"
Prefect Dou's face was cold, and there was no trace of affection. At this moment, the businessman's instinctive sense of crisis made Shen Yucheng realize that this matter was not that simple, and Prefect Dou was unreliable.
"grown ups!"
As soon as Shen Yucheng wanted to explain, Gu Chongyang strode up to his uncle and said, "Wang Er said that Shen Hetang sells fake medicines. He can show evidence and falsely accuse Shen Hetang. Can't our Shen family refute it? I know that Shen Hetang didn't sell fake medicines." As for the evidence, Lord Dou forcibly stopped me from finishing my speech, so what is the intention? Just relying on Wang Er to call a few words about Master Qingtian, can you convict the Shen family?"
After hearing this, Magistrate Dou smiled instead of anger: "Okay, since you said you have evidence, then the government wants to see what evidence you have. If there is no evidence, it will not only be as simple as sealing up Shen Hetang, the Shen family will All of you will be punished for obstructing the government’s work.”
"Come here!" Magistrate Dou shouted: "Move the table and come here, the government will settle the case here today, and I will definitely convince you!"
Dou Haoxiao's thinking is very simple. The evidence of Shen Hetang's selling fake medicines is conclusive. The bigger the incident, the deeper the public outrage. When the Shen family collapses, there will be no doubts. At that time, everything in the Shen family will belong to him, Dou. stuff in the bag.
Gu Chongyang smiled coldly, without any trace of fear on his face: "My lord is so beautiful, my little girl first thank you for giving the Shen family a chance to defend themselves."
Magistrate Dou twirled his beard and smiled slightly: "Miss Biao, you don't need to provoke me. I keep my word. Since I promised to give the Shen family a chance to explain, I will do what I say. Since you have evidence to prove that Shen Hetang is innocent, you can Bring it up quickly."
That smile was three points obscene and seven points careless, as if he was looking at a dying person.
Shen Yucheng's heart fell to the bottom.Only at this moment did he realize that this in-law didn't come here today to send a plaque at all, it was clearly out of good intentions.And Wang Erbacheng was also instigated by the magistrate Dou, otherwise, he would never have the courage to make a scene against Shen Hetang.
He originally thought of calming down the matter first, and then deal with it slowly. If Chongyang hadn't seen the clue, he might have already gone to the cell by now.
Gu Chongyang also smiled slightly, walked to the side of Chief Tang and said, "Thank you Chief Tang for your help, can you lend me the prescription."
Knowing that she was the cousin of the Shen family, Chief Tang struggled in his heart, but seeing her young age, outstanding appearance, and righteousness, he still passed the prescription after thinking about it.
Gu Chongyang glanced at the prescription, feeling more confident in her heart, she questioned Wang Er loudly: "Wang Er, let me ask you first, you said that Father Wang had typhoid fever, and you brought this prescription to Shen He Tang three days ago. Grab the medicine, one of the medicines in this prescription is Tian Qi, because Tian Qi is fake, so, if you eat it, old man Wang will be ruined, right?"
"Yes." Wang Er stood up, puffed his chest and said: "I, Wang Er, guarantee with my life that this Tian Qi is a fake, forged with curcuma."
"I don't believe it, you said it's fake Tianqi, is it fake Tianqi?" Gu Chongyang raised his jaw slightly, staring at Wang Er intently: "Your Wang Er is just a part-time worker, how did you identify this medicine?" Is it fake?"
A trace of panic flashed across Shen Yucheng's face: "Chongyang..."
This is indeed Fake Tianqi, others may not recognize it, but Shen Yucheng does.He wanted to remind Gu Chongyang, but unexpectedly, Shen Suying walked up to him, grabbed his sleeve, and whispered: "Daddy, Cousin Chongyang said that she will definitely clear our innocence and tell you not to do anything. Don't talk, just listen and watch."
Shen Yucheng was worried and wanted to talk, Shen Suying said: "Daddy, when did Cousin Chongyang speak big words, if she was not sure, she would definitely tell us when she needed our help. Don't be impulsive, you will spoil Cousin Chongyang thing."
Shen Yucheng thought about the few things he had done since his niece arrived, and then looked at Gu Chongyang's confident appearance, and finally chose to wait patiently.At the same time, he also made up his mind that if Dou Haoxiao dared to hurt Chongyang, he would not let him go even if he risked his life.
"..." Wang Er was speechless for a while, and said bravely: "Don't worry about how I know, in short, this is the fake Tianqi, and it ruined my father. You Shen Hetang sells fake medicines, you are black-hearted and rotten, you should sit down. Prison."
"You are the one who should go to prison!" Gu Chongyang sneered, and looked at Dou Haoxiao defiantly: "Prefect Dou, is this how you handle cases? Today, Wang Er raised someone and said that Shen Hetang sold fake land Seven, then tomorrow, Zhang San and Li Si will personally say that Shen Hetang sells fake ginseng, and anyone can come and slander the Shen family. I don’t believe this is fake Tianqi.”
A contemptuous expression appeared on Dou Haoxiao's face, he thought that this cousin lady was capable, but after all, she was just messing around.
"Since that's the case, the government will convince you!" Dou Haoxiao said, "Come here, go to the herbal medicine storehouse of the Supreme Hospital, and ask the two masters of traditional medicine to come over and identify the authenticity."
"Wait!" Gu Chongyang said: "Since you have gone to the imperial hospital, why not invite an imperial physician to come over, and by the way, you can help Mr. Wang see the disease, maybe there is still a chance of saving the disease, and the consultation fee for the treatment will be borne by us." Home, how about it?"
Dou Haoxiao wanted to refuse on the spot, but the crowd watching eagerly, he said: "By the way, invite an imperial physician to come over."
It has to be said that Gu Chongyang's move is still useful.The crowd of onlookers began to relax a little. Shen Hetang has never sold fake medicines in these years, and there is probably a misunderstanding about this matter.
Soon, people from the Tai Hospital came, and the two classic medicines learned the cause and effect, and after going up to check, they said with one voice that Tian Qi was indeed a fake.
Some of the onlookers were in an uproar, some were disappointed, and some gloated.
Dou Haoxiao pulled his face away, and stared at Gu Chongyang sharply: "Miss Biao Shen, what else do you have to say?"
"My lord." Gu Chongyang said calmly, "I want to sue Wang Er for slandering a good person and slandering Shen Hetang with fake medicine."
"It's nonsense!" Dou Haoxiao set the table and shouted loudly: "You are such a nonsense, don't blame this house for not being sympathetic, come here, and take down the Gu family and everyone in the Shen family!"
"Master Dou, you clearly said that you would allow the Shen family to defend themselves. I haven't finished my sentence yet. You are in a hurry to arrest me and don't give me a chance to refute. Aren't you talking about yourself!"
"Okay!" Dou Haoxiao smiled angrily: "This government will give you another chance."
"Everyone!" Gu Chongyang raised the prescription in his hand and said loudly: "Wang Er said that Father Wang was suffering from typhoid fever, but this prescription is clearly a prescription for treating women's postpartum hemorrhage. How could it be for typhoid fever? ?”
"This is the prescription for treating typhoid fever." Of course Wang Er refused to admit it: "The doctor prescribed this prescription for my father. You said it is a prescription for treating postpartum bleeding. What evidence do you have?"
"I don't have any proof, but there are two classic medicines and one imperial physician here. This prescription is clearly Dingbeng Jiuchan Decoction. You don't know each other, but the imperial physician and the two imperial physicians must know each other."
Gu Chongyang handed the prescription to the imperial physician and said, "Please take a look, whether this prescription is for treating typhoid fever or postpartum hemorrhage."
The imperial physician and the two Pharmacopoeias took the prescription and looked it over, and said in unison: "This prescription is indeed for the treatment of women's arrhythmia, not for typhoid fever."
"Thank you!" Gu Chongyang bent slightly, very humble.
This is the real reason for her messing around just now.
She naturally knew that Tian Qi was fake, but she also knew that the prescription was wrong.If she had just said that the prescription was wrong, Wang Er would never admit it, and Dou Haoxiao would definitely tell lies and favor Wang Er, but now that the imperial doctor is testifying, Wang Er can't deny it even if he wants to.
Gu Chongyang turned around and questioned Wang Er loudly: "This prescription can't cure typhoid fever at all, and it's absolutely impossible for Father Wang to suffer from hemorrhage. It's clear that you deliberately blackmailed Shen Hetang. According to the laws of Daqi, blackmail and blackmail stick two Bai, half a year in prison, Wang Er, you wait for the hammer and go to jail."
A trace of panic flashed across Wang Er's face, he quickly glanced at Dou Haoxiao, he was not looking at Dou Haoxiao, but Dou Haoxiao's master.
The master gave him a look, and Wang Er quickly calmed down again: "Miss Biao, this prescription was prescribed by a doctor. I didn't know that this prescription was wrong. But anyway, Shen Hetang sells counterfeit medicine. The facts are well-documented, this point, no matter how much you talk about it, you can’t say that black is white.”
"That's right, black is black, no matter what, it can't become white." Gu Chongyang said: "You said that the doctor prescribed the wrong medicine, but you forgot that every prescription will have the doctor's signature on it. Otherwise, the pharmacy won’t sell medicine. You can’t read, so of course you don’t know it. It’s Dr. Huang Po Huang’s signature. Did the doctor prescribe the wrong medicine, or did you pick up someone else’s prescription to blackmail you? Come, it will be clear."
"Is there any fellow countryman who is willing to do a favor and invite this Doctor Huang to come over?"
As soon as Gu Chongyang's words came out, someone immediately ran out to invite someone.
After a while, the old doctor, who thought he had white beard and hair, was helped up tremblingly.
Dr. Huang has been practicing medicine in Nanjing for many years, and he is well-known in the neighborhood, and many people know him.
"Doctor Huang, may I know this prescription?" Gu Chongyang handed the prescription to Doctor Huang and said, "Wang Er said that his father had typhoid fever, and you prescribed this prescription. May I ask if what he said is true?"
"Fucking shit!" Doctor Huang, who is highly skilled in medicine and has a good temper, scolded on the spot after hearing this: "This is the postpartum blood collapse soup I prescribed for Mrs. Zhao Xiangshen. When did I give it to Wang Er?" Have you ever seen typhoid fever? Wang Er, you bastard wants to slander me and harm me, and you don’t even open your eyes to see who your grandpa Huang is? You were so sick that year that you were dying. If it weren’t for you, grandpa Huang, I would be mad Charity doesn't charge you a doctor's fee, you bastard would have given your life a long time ago. If I didn't see you pitifully recommending you to work part-time at Zhao Squire's house, you would have starved to death a long time ago, and you dared to harm your Grandpa Huang! I'll kill you heartless little bastard!"
Dr. Huang is old and has good medical skills. He is respected in this generation, and no one has dared to offend him. He raised his crutches and beat Wang Er up and down.
Wang Er begged for mercy while running: "Grandpa Huang, please forgive me..."
Wang Er ran away, but Father Wang was still there. Doctor Huang took his anger out on Father Wang: "You bastard who is so old and careless, you gave birth to such a son, and you still mess around with them. I will teach you a lesson for your father who died this year!"
Papa Wang was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, but he was firmly on the crutches, and when he couldn't take it anymore, he got up and ran away quickly. How could he look sick at all?
Everyone was amused by this farce, and couldn't help laughing loudly.
Dou Haoxiao's face was very ugly, and he gave the master a hard look.
Gu Chongyang said loudly: "My lord, since it has been proved that Wang Er deliberately blackmailed, can the Shen family be cleared?"
"Miss Biao, you are wrong, one yard is one yard, and Wang Er's blackmail is blackmail, but he took the medicine from Shen Hetang. It is also true that Tian Qi is fake. Shen Hetang must be sealed, and everyone in the Shen family is not innocent. "
"Master, I heard you right!" Gu Chongyang sneered and said, "Father Wang is not sick at all, and the medicine Wang Er took is a fiction. Shen Hetang's medicine was sold to Mr. Zhao's family, not Mr. Wang. Second. As for where Wang Er’s fake medicine came from, I’m afraid I have to ask Mr. Dou?”
"Nonsense!" Dou Haoxiao blushed with blue veins on his forehead, "How could this government know where he got the fake medicine from?"
"Master Dou doesn't know now, but you can arrest Wang Er and torture him severely, and ask the person behind the scenes." Gu Chongyang said with a smile: "Master Dou has always been fair, and today the Shen family has suffered such unfair injustice. Lord Dou will definitely give the Shen family justice."
Now that things have happened, Dou Haoxiao knows that his situation is over, and it is impossible to frame the Shen family.Unexpectedly, the master and Wang Er were so useless, seeing that the Shen family was going to be in trouble, they even failed.
"This government has its own rules and regulations for handling cases, and other people don't have to comment." He snorted coldly and said, "Go back to the government!"
"Since the Shen family is innocent, please leave the plaque behind." Gu Chongyang smiled proudly: "Authentic medicinal materials, herbs that benefit the people, Shen Hetang still deserves this plaque."
Dou Haoxiao didn't speak, and got on the sedan chair directly. The officials who carried the plaque were very embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
"Master Dou didn't say anything, he just acquiesced!" Gu Chongyang ordered unceremoniously: "Hurry up and hang up the plaque."
"Yes, yes." The officer repeatedly agreed and hung up the plaque.
This farce has finally come to an end.
When Ruifeng reported the news to Wang Jiulang, he was sipping tea: "As I said, this little girl is smart and pungent, and ordinary people would never want to please her in front of her."
Although it was belittled, there was a bit of complacency inside and out of the words, clearly seeing her as one of his own.
Ruifeng smiled slightly and said: "If I care about it, it will be chaotic. I was afraid that Ms. Gu would suffer a disadvantage and sent someone to look at it. I didn't expect that my master guessed it right. Ms. Gu pressed on every step of the way and forced the prefect of Dou to retreat steadily. The originally good situation fell apart. It's a pity that Master Jiu didn't see it with his own eyes. Miss Gu is eloquent and eloquent, and even I applauded Miss Gu along with those people."
"That little girl is used to pretending, and people who don't know will be deceived by her innocent and harmless appearance. In fact, she is smart." Wang Jiulang said this softly, and her eyes appeared in front of her eyes. He blinked his big eyes angrily.
"As expected of the person Jiu Ye wants to protect, I was surprised, but now that I know, Miss Gu is indeed not an ordinary person if you can get into Jiu Ye's eyes, it's because of your piercing eyes."
"It's gold that always shines, and she has qualities that ordinary people don't have." Wang Jiulang's cold face was a little loose, his eyes were bright, and he slightly curled his lips and said: "Dou Haoxiao, let someone stare at you, I'm afraid that he will come to hell."
Ruifeng replied yes, and slowly backed out.
Jiuye showed extraordinary concern for Miss Gu, which made him think that Jiuye was in love with a man and a woman.But before he had time to be happy, Lord Jiu personally shattered his fantasy.
For a person like Master Jiu, how could an ordinary woman make him fall in love?
He was just admiring Miss Gu, a kind of care, and a kind of interest.
Ruifeng remembered a puppy named Xuerong that Master Jiu had fed before. It was given to Master Jiu by the master before his death. Master Jiu treated Xuerong very well and ate and slept with it.After the master died, Master Jiu didn't care about everything, the only thing he cared about was Xue Rong.
After Xuerong's death, he never saw Master Jiu was so interested in who or what.
Now it seems that Master Jiu treats Miss Gu just like she treats Xuerong, without affection between men and women, but just takes care of her like a pet and takes it to heart.
Miss Gu is too young. Although she is beautiful and tall, she is not a big girl after all, and she cannot attract a man like Master Jiu.
Jiu Ye is too lonely, it is not easy for Miss Gu to loosen Jiu Ye's frozen heart.
Forget it, pets should be pets, it's better than a pool of stagnant water that was as cold as ice.
In the future, we must find a way to let Miss Gu and Master Jiu get in touch more.
(End of this chapter)
April 28 is the birthday of Medicine King.
Medical officials from the Nanjing Imperial Hospital, down to Youfang Langzhong, drug dealers and farmers, and ordinary people all went to the Yaowang Temple to pay homage to the divine doctor Bian Que, and begged the Yaowang to bless their medical skills, medicinal materials business, and family members. disease.
The whole family of the Shen family was mobilized, and after offering incense at the Yaowang Temple, they had to go to Shen Hetang, the Shen family medicine shop.
The ancestors of the Shen family started their business selling medicines for treating diseases, and now they have other businesses, but the medicinal materials business has never been abandoned.
On the birthday of the king of medicine, the Shen family pharmacy will give free Dieda pills and Huoxiang pills for treating heatstroke, which has been passed down for generations.
A long queue had already formed in front of Shen Hetang's gate, and the pharmacists were busy distributing medicines.Many people received free medicine, and at the same time grabbed some other medicines to go back. Many people walked on the street with medicine bags with Shen Hetang's unique logo.
A sharp-eyed person saw Shen Yucheng and hurried over to thank Shen Yucheng.
Shen Hetang's dispensing of medicines is a big deal. Shen Yu would bring his wife and children here every year. As time passed, many people knew the Shen family.
Shen Hetang's medicinal materials are authentic, the price is reasonable, and the medicine is distributed free of charge, which is very trusted by the people of Nanjing.
Seeing his uncle surrounded by thanking people, Gu Chongyang was also very happy.
She used to distribute medicines in Liangxiang, but she never expected that Shen Hetang of the Shen family would already start distributing medicines for free. The familiar scene inspired her physically and mentally, and she pulled Shen Suying, who was eager to try, to help the man distribute medicines.
"Master Zhifu is here!"
I don't know who yelled, and I saw Dou Haoxiao, who was wearing a fourth-rank official uniform, walking over in a mighty manner, surrounded by officials.
"I've met the magistrate." Shen Yucheng followed the crowd and knelt down one after another.
"Oh, brother Yucheng is so polite." With a smile on his face, Dou Haoxiao hurriedly stepped forward to help Shen Yucheng up: "You and I are in-laws, why are you so unreasonable? Please hurry up."
"Courtesy cannot be discarded." Shen Yucheng stood up and said, "Why did your lord come here today?"
"The birthday of the medicine king is once a year. Shen Hetang distributes medicines for free every year, which benefits the hometown. It is obvious to all. Drugstores like Shen Hetang should vigorously promote it." Dou Zhifu said with a hearty smile: "As the prefect of Nanjing, I am here on the day of the medicine king's birthday. At present, in order to promote healthy competition in the medicinal material market, so that the majority of pharmacies can better benefit the people and serve the people, three pharmacies were specially selected and presented with a plaque specially made by the Nanjing government office as a commendation. A plaque must belong to Shen Hetang.”
As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, the officials behind him lifted out a thick plaque with black lacquer and gold characters, and wrote: Authentic medicinal materials and herbs to help the people.
Shen Yucheng didn't expect such a big surprise. Although Shen Hetang gave the medicine for free and didn't think about getting anything in return, the plaque sent by the prefect of Dou still surprised and delighted Shen Yucheng: "Shen Hetang, what virtue and ability, can get Your lord is so appreciative?"
"Deserved!"
Prefect Dou hadn't spoken yet, when the onlookers suddenly shouted, accompanied by crackling applause.
Shen Yucheng looked excited, and said loudly: "In the future, I, Shen Hetang, will definitely work hard to make better medicinal materials to relieve everyone's pain. I will never let down the trust and love of my lord and all the villagers."
The rest of the Shen family were very happy, Shen Suying excitedly squeezed Gu Chongyang's hand, her face flushed slightly, Shen Hetang could get such praise, the Shen family felt honored, and Gu Chongyang also felt honored.
It's just that she is not as optimistic as the others. On the one hand, she is afraid that prefect Dou will take the opportunity to win over uncle, and uncle will get on King Rong's boat without knowing it.On the other hand, she always felt that Magistrate Dou's smile was somewhat malicious.
Gu Chongyang's guess is correct, the prefect Dou really has bad intentions.Last time, when the household department came to collect grain, apart from the five thousand shi sold to Ji Rong, the Shen family still had a lot of grain left, but Shen Yucheng did not tell the truth, and even refused to resell the two thousand shi To prefect Dou, this made prefect Dou feel dissatisfied.
Later, Shen Yucheng learned that after Zhifu Dou had deducted four thousand shi of grain, he supplied Ji Rong with four thousand shi. When Dou Zhifu knew about this, his dissatisfaction with Shen Yucheng turned into hatred.
Since Shen Yucheng is so ignorant of current affairs, don't blame him for disregarding his relatives.
As the saying goes, the county magistrate who ransacked the house, the governor who killed the family, he and the Shen family are in-laws, and if they brought down the Shen family, wouldn't all the Shen family's money belong to him?He dedicated such a large amount of wealth to King Rong, so why worry about not being able to become a king in the future?
Magistrate Dou was thinking viciously, but he had a grin on his face: "Come here, quickly hang the plaque on the signboard of Shenhetang."
"Yes!"
The officials were about to hang up, when suddenly several people rushed out from the crowd, a man in his 20s was in front, and behind him were four people carrying an old man, who seemed to be seriously ill.
The man in front cried loudly and knelt down in front of Magistrate Dou: "Shen Hetang sells fake medicines, and the villain's father sees his life in danger. The magistrate must be the master of Xiaomin!"
Suddenly such an incident happened, everyone in the Shen family was stunned.
The onlookers whispered and looked at Shen Yucheng with different eyes, some with trust and some with suspicion.
"I have never heard of Shen Hetang selling fake medicines in these years. How could such a thing happen? Could it be a mistake?" Prefect Dou asked pretendingly.
"My lord, you can't be biased just because you are related to the Shen family!" The man cried even louder; "My lord, you have to decide for the villain."
Dou Zhifu looked at Shen Yucheng with embarrassment, gave him a comforting look, and then said solemnly: "What grievances do you have, tell me quickly, this government will handle it impartially, will not take sides, let alone let Fake medicines harm the people. No matter who they are, as long as they dare to sell fake medicines to harm others, the government will not forgive them lightly!"
What he said was impassioned and inspiring.
"The villain's name is Wang Er, and his family lives in Wuyue Lane in front of him. Three days ago, the villain's father got typhoid fever. The doctor prescribed a prescription. The villain has always trusted Shen Hetang, so he came to Shen Hetang to get medicine for his father. Thinking that the more I eat, the worse it gets, and I can’t get out of bed right now.”
Wang Er wiped his tears and said: "The villain thought that Dad's condition was getting worse, but he didn't expect to find something wrong with Tian Qi when he poured out the medicine residue this morning. The villain found someone to look at it. This Tian Qi is fake. , it was Shen Hetang who used Curcuma to pretend to be Tian Qi, deliberately selling fake medicines to harm people!"
Wang Er spread out a medicine bag, and held it in front of Dou Zhifu with both hands; "Please look, my lord, this Tianqi looks fine at first glance, but it is actually a fake medicine that is artificially processed and carved from Curcuma."
As soon as Wang Er's words fell, several people behind him began to cry loudly, some were crying for their fathers and some were crying for their uncles, their feet and chests dropped, they were very miserable.
Wang Er's family background is average, he planted a few acres of Susukida in his family, and during the slack season, he worked as a part-time job for the Zhao gentry in Nanjing City. He was smooth but not a treacherous villain. people who come.
If he hadn't bought counterfeit medicine, Wang Er wouldn't have the guts to confront Dou Zhifu's in-laws.
Father Wang's face was sallow, lying on the ground dying, as if he might die at any moment.
When someone is not sick, if he catches a fake medicine, not only the disease cannot be cured, but his life will be killed instead.The eyes of the onlookers looking at the Shen family gradually changed.
Gu Chongyang's heart couldn't help but tighten, Shen Suying held Gu Chongyang's hand tightly, and looked at Shen Yucheng with a pale face.
"Impossible!" Shen Yucheng stepped forward and said: "The Shen family never sells fake medicines, let alone deliberately use Emu to impersonate Tian Qi, Wang Er, did you make a mistake?"
"Wrong? I personally came to Shen Hetang to grab the medicine. How can I make a mistake?" Wang Er stood up and threw the medicine bag at Shen Yucheng, and the medicine scattered all over the ground: "Look for yourself, the medicine bag is clearly marked. It is your Shen Hetang's unique logo, how can you make a mistake? You killed my father, and I will fight with you!"
Wang Er's eyes were red with anxiety, and he rushed towards Shen Yucheng.Shen Qian and Shen Rang were taken aback, and hurried over to protect Shen Yucheng.
But Gu Chongyang could tell that Wang Er was just putting on a show, and the prefect of Dou must have another trick.
"Stop him!" Magistrate Dou's face turned cold, and he shouted: "Wang Er, you are so brave, you dare to commit murder and hurt someone in front of the government, what should you do?"
Prefect Dou was helping the Shen family on the surface, but in fact he was adding fuel to the fire.
"My lord!" Wang Er wailed loudly, "Master Qingtian, the villain's father was killed by someone. Instead of making decisions for the villain, do you want to punish the villain? Do we small people deserve to be punished?" People bullied me, so my father died in vain? Shen Hetang sells fake medicines to harm people, the magistrate is partial to Shen Hetang, I, Wang Er, have been wronged!"
His voice made the onlookers feel compassion, especially those who had suffered from the government, they were filled with righteous indignation and looked at Shen Yucheng and the prefect Dou indignantly.
Prefect Dou gave Shen Yucheng a very embarrassed look: "Brother Yucheng, do you see this?"
"Everyone!" Shen Yucheng said loudly: "We, Shen Hetang, will never sell fake medicines to deceive the village. I, Shen Yucheng, guarantee with my personality that this fake medicine is definitely not sold by Shen Hetang. The medicines sold by Shen Hetang every day are recorded. Since Wang Er said that it was sold three days ago, I will go and show the account book to everyone, and you will know immediately."
Gu Chongyang couldn't help being anxious, this is probably the real purpose of Dou Haoxiao and his gang, what they want is solid evidence, once uncle comes in, there must be a record in the account book.
Uncle believes in Dou Haoxiao too much, so he will definitely suffer a lot!
"Wait!" Someone said unconvinced: "Who knows if you will tamper with the account books when you go in, you should send someone else to go in and look."
Shen Yucheng had a clear conscience, so he would naturally not stop him: "That's fine, is there any fellow who can read and write willing to help with this?"
A young man wearing a scholar's turban walked out of the crowd: "I am Tang Yiqing, the head of the trial case in Nanjing County last year, and I would like to take a look at Shen Hetang's account books."
"Okay. The government has entrusted this case to the chief of the Tang case. Whether it is right or wrong will soon be settled." Dou Zhifu nodded and said: "Wang Er, bring the prescription for your medicine."
The head of Tang's case took the prescription from Wang's second hand, and followed the other two into the Shenhetang pharmacy.
Time passed bit by bit, everyone never left, they were all waiting for the final result.
Dou Haoxiao smiled but didn't smile, with a worried expression on his face, but his eyes were full of calculations.
Shen Yucheng was very calm. He was sure that he did not sell fake medicines, so he would not worry about it. With the prefect Dou's in-laws around, Shen Hetang would definitely win a big victory.
Gu Chongyang was not so optimistic, her mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of countermeasures.
After a while, the first three of Tang's cases came out of Shen Hetang, holding an account book in his hand, with a solemn face, and looked at Shen Yucheng with very unfriendly eyes.
Shen Yucheng's heart skipped a beat, and his expression changed slightly. Could it be that Shen Hetang really sold fake medicines!
No, impossible!Shen Hetang is in charge of purchasing medicinal materials is his brother of the same clan, Shen Yuluo, the fourth householder of the Shen family. For so many years, he has been attached to himself and has a close relationship with him. Years of experience in purchasing medicinal materials has trained him to distinguish medicines like a keen eye. It is absolutely impossible to buy counterfeit medicines.
But the facts were different from what he thought, and the head of the case Tang said angrily: "My lord, please take a look, this is the account book of the Shen family. On April 25, Shen Hetang sold a total of [-] medicines, of which five prescriptions are One tael of ginseng, one tael of angelica, one tael of astragalus, one tael of Atractylodes macrocephala, and one tael of Tian Qi Sanqian, all of which are exactly the same as the prescriptions in Wang’s second hand, the time and prescriptions match, Wang Er did not lie!”
Since Wang Er did not lie, it proves that Shen Hetang did sell fake medicine.
Everyone in the Wang family burst into tears and kowtowed to Zhifu Dou: "Master Qingtian, you must make the decision for us. My father has eaten Shen Hetang's fake Tianqi, and now he is alive or dead! Counterfeit medicine harms people, Shen Hetang has a black heart, Please be fair, my lord."
Suddenly someone shouted: "Fake medicine harms people, knock down Shen Hetang!"
The onlookers were filled with righteous indignation and shouted in unison: "Fake medicine harms people, down with Shen Hetang! Fake medicine harms people, down with Shen Hetang!"
Shen Yucheng's face turned pale, he didn't know what went wrong, and said loudly: "Such a thing happened to Shen Hetang. As the master of Shen Hetang, I, Shen Yucheng, will definitely give Wang Er and everyone in the village an explanation..."
But his voice alone was too small, and was quickly drowned out by the voices of the crowd.
Dou Zhifu said loudly: "Everyone, I didn't expect such a thing to happen on the birthday of the medicine king. The government will never sit idly by. Since the record of selling fake medicines was found in Shen Hetang, the government will seal down Shen Hetang and arrest the people involved. I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation.”
Dou Zhifu was stern and selfless, and his upright words calmed down everyone's anger.
Dou Haoxiao blinked at Shen Yucheng, and Shen Yucheng also knew that the current situation could not be explained by opening his mouth. He believed that with his friendship with the prefect Dou for so many years, he would definitely find out the truth of the matter. , to restore the Shen family's innocence.
Shen Yucheng nodded secretly, expressing his trust in Dou Haoxiao.
Dou Haoxiao succeeded in his treacherous scheme, but his face was full of righteousness, and he waved his big hand and said: "Come here, seal up Shen Hetang, take Shen Yucheng and Shen Hetang's staff all, and take them to the prison. The government must try this case carefully." , will definitely not wrong any party."
"Wait!" There was a clear and clear shout from the crowd: "My lord, this case is clear at a glance. It is clear that Wang Er deliberately framed and framed Shen Hetang. Shen Hetang is innocent. Why should you seal up Shen Hetang? People like you imprisoned Shen Hetang indiscriminately." , how can you convince the public?"
Everyone looked around in response to the reputation, and saw a teenage girl walking out of the door of Shen Hetang. She was as bright and charming as a morning dew pearl, and as charming as a first-blooming spring flower. Such a charming and beautiful girl made everyone present stare intently.
They have seen beautiful little girls before, but such a beautiful and dignified little girl like this one is really rare.
Seeing Gu Chongyang walking out, Shen Yucheng's expression changed, and he instinctively wanted to step forward to stop him.
Unexpectedly, Gu Chongyang secretly shook his head at him, signaling him not to speak.
Shen Yucheng hesitated for a while, and saw Dou Haoxiao's face turned cold, and his tone was very unfriendly: "Who are you? Our government has always been fair in adjudicating cases, and will never deliberately take sides. Now the evidence is convincing, it is clear that Shen Hetang bought fake medicines, you say the king Second, framed, what evidence is there?"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Yucheng's face became very ugly, and he realized something was wrong in his heart.
Dou Zhifu opened his mouth and said that Shen Hetang sells fake medicines. This is not helping himself, but clearly hurting himself!But no matter what, Chongyang can't make trouble right now, she is a child after all.It doesn't matter if he has something to do, if something happened to Chongyang, what face would he have to see his sister?
"Master Dou, this is my niece, she is still a child..."
"Shen Yucheng!" Magistrate Dou changed his face: "You Shen Hetang not only sells counterfeit medicines, but also interferes with the government's work. What should you do?"
Prefect Dou's face was cold, and there was no trace of affection. At this moment, the businessman's instinctive sense of crisis made Shen Yucheng realize that this matter was not that simple, and Prefect Dou was unreliable.
"grown ups!"
As soon as Shen Yucheng wanted to explain, Gu Chongyang strode up to his uncle and said, "Wang Er said that Shen Hetang sells fake medicines. He can show evidence and falsely accuse Shen Hetang. Can't our Shen family refute it? I know that Shen Hetang didn't sell fake medicines." As for the evidence, Lord Dou forcibly stopped me from finishing my speech, so what is the intention? Just relying on Wang Er to call a few words about Master Qingtian, can you convict the Shen family?"
After hearing this, Magistrate Dou smiled instead of anger: "Okay, since you said you have evidence, then the government wants to see what evidence you have. If there is no evidence, it will not only be as simple as sealing up Shen Hetang, the Shen family will All of you will be punished for obstructing the government’s work.”
"Come here!" Magistrate Dou shouted: "Move the table and come here, the government will settle the case here today, and I will definitely convince you!"
Dou Haoxiao's thinking is very simple. The evidence of Shen Hetang's selling fake medicines is conclusive. The bigger the incident, the deeper the public outrage. When the Shen family collapses, there will be no doubts. At that time, everything in the Shen family will belong to him, Dou. stuff in the bag.
Gu Chongyang smiled coldly, without any trace of fear on his face: "My lord is so beautiful, my little girl first thank you for giving the Shen family a chance to defend themselves."
Magistrate Dou twirled his beard and smiled slightly: "Miss Biao, you don't need to provoke me. I keep my word. Since I promised to give the Shen family a chance to explain, I will do what I say. Since you have evidence to prove that Shen Hetang is innocent, you can Bring it up quickly."
That smile was three points obscene and seven points careless, as if he was looking at a dying person.
Shen Yucheng's heart fell to the bottom.Only at this moment did he realize that this in-law didn't come here today to send a plaque at all, it was clearly out of good intentions.And Wang Erbacheng was also instigated by the magistrate Dou, otherwise, he would never have the courage to make a scene against Shen Hetang.
He originally thought of calming down the matter first, and then deal with it slowly. If Chongyang hadn't seen the clue, he might have already gone to the cell by now.
Gu Chongyang also smiled slightly, walked to the side of Chief Tang and said, "Thank you Chief Tang for your help, can you lend me the prescription."
Knowing that she was the cousin of the Shen family, Chief Tang struggled in his heart, but seeing her young age, outstanding appearance, and righteousness, he still passed the prescription after thinking about it.
Gu Chongyang glanced at the prescription, feeling more confident in her heart, she questioned Wang Er loudly: "Wang Er, let me ask you first, you said that Father Wang had typhoid fever, and you brought this prescription to Shen He Tang three days ago. Grab the medicine, one of the medicines in this prescription is Tian Qi, because Tian Qi is fake, so, if you eat it, old man Wang will be ruined, right?"
"Yes." Wang Er stood up, puffed his chest and said: "I, Wang Er, guarantee with my life that this Tian Qi is a fake, forged with curcuma."
"I don't believe it, you said it's fake Tianqi, is it fake Tianqi?" Gu Chongyang raised his jaw slightly, staring at Wang Er intently: "Your Wang Er is just a part-time worker, how did you identify this medicine?" Is it fake?"
A trace of panic flashed across Shen Yucheng's face: "Chongyang..."
This is indeed Fake Tianqi, others may not recognize it, but Shen Yucheng does.He wanted to remind Gu Chongyang, but unexpectedly, Shen Suying walked up to him, grabbed his sleeve, and whispered: "Daddy, Cousin Chongyang said that she will definitely clear our innocence and tell you not to do anything. Don't talk, just listen and watch."
Shen Yucheng was worried and wanted to talk, Shen Suying said: "Daddy, when did Cousin Chongyang speak big words, if she was not sure, she would definitely tell us when she needed our help. Don't be impulsive, you will spoil Cousin Chongyang thing."
Shen Yucheng thought about the few things he had done since his niece arrived, and then looked at Gu Chongyang's confident appearance, and finally chose to wait patiently.At the same time, he also made up his mind that if Dou Haoxiao dared to hurt Chongyang, he would not let him go even if he risked his life.
"..." Wang Er was speechless for a while, and said bravely: "Don't worry about how I know, in short, this is the fake Tianqi, and it ruined my father. You Shen Hetang sells fake medicines, you are black-hearted and rotten, you should sit down. Prison."
"You are the one who should go to prison!" Gu Chongyang sneered, and looked at Dou Haoxiao defiantly: "Prefect Dou, is this how you handle cases? Today, Wang Er raised someone and said that Shen Hetang sold fake land Seven, then tomorrow, Zhang San and Li Si will personally say that Shen Hetang sells fake ginseng, and anyone can come and slander the Shen family. I don’t believe this is fake Tianqi.”
A contemptuous expression appeared on Dou Haoxiao's face, he thought that this cousin lady was capable, but after all, she was just messing around.
"Since that's the case, the government will convince you!" Dou Haoxiao said, "Come here, go to the herbal medicine storehouse of the Supreme Hospital, and ask the two masters of traditional medicine to come over and identify the authenticity."
"Wait!" Gu Chongyang said: "Since you have gone to the imperial hospital, why not invite an imperial physician to come over, and by the way, you can help Mr. Wang see the disease, maybe there is still a chance of saving the disease, and the consultation fee for the treatment will be borne by us." Home, how about it?"
Dou Haoxiao wanted to refuse on the spot, but the crowd watching eagerly, he said: "By the way, invite an imperial physician to come over."
It has to be said that Gu Chongyang's move is still useful.The crowd of onlookers began to relax a little. Shen Hetang has never sold fake medicines in these years, and there is probably a misunderstanding about this matter.
Soon, people from the Tai Hospital came, and the two classic medicines learned the cause and effect, and after going up to check, they said with one voice that Tian Qi was indeed a fake.
Some of the onlookers were in an uproar, some were disappointed, and some gloated.
Dou Haoxiao pulled his face away, and stared at Gu Chongyang sharply: "Miss Biao Shen, what else do you have to say?"
"My lord." Gu Chongyang said calmly, "I want to sue Wang Er for slandering a good person and slandering Shen Hetang with fake medicine."
"It's nonsense!" Dou Haoxiao set the table and shouted loudly: "You are such a nonsense, don't blame this house for not being sympathetic, come here, and take down the Gu family and everyone in the Shen family!"
"Master Dou, you clearly said that you would allow the Shen family to defend themselves. I haven't finished my sentence yet. You are in a hurry to arrest me and don't give me a chance to refute. Aren't you talking about yourself!"
"Okay!" Dou Haoxiao smiled angrily: "This government will give you another chance."
"Everyone!" Gu Chongyang raised the prescription in his hand and said loudly: "Wang Er said that Father Wang was suffering from typhoid fever, but this prescription is clearly a prescription for treating women's postpartum hemorrhage. How could it be for typhoid fever? ?”
"This is the prescription for treating typhoid fever." Of course Wang Er refused to admit it: "The doctor prescribed this prescription for my father. You said it is a prescription for treating postpartum bleeding. What evidence do you have?"
"I don't have any proof, but there are two classic medicines and one imperial physician here. This prescription is clearly Dingbeng Jiuchan Decoction. You don't know each other, but the imperial physician and the two imperial physicians must know each other."
Gu Chongyang handed the prescription to the imperial physician and said, "Please take a look, whether this prescription is for treating typhoid fever or postpartum hemorrhage."
The imperial physician and the two Pharmacopoeias took the prescription and looked it over, and said in unison: "This prescription is indeed for the treatment of women's arrhythmia, not for typhoid fever."
"Thank you!" Gu Chongyang bent slightly, very humble.
This is the real reason for her messing around just now.
She naturally knew that Tian Qi was fake, but she also knew that the prescription was wrong.If she had just said that the prescription was wrong, Wang Er would never admit it, and Dou Haoxiao would definitely tell lies and favor Wang Er, but now that the imperial doctor is testifying, Wang Er can't deny it even if he wants to.
Gu Chongyang turned around and questioned Wang Er loudly: "This prescription can't cure typhoid fever at all, and it's absolutely impossible for Father Wang to suffer from hemorrhage. It's clear that you deliberately blackmailed Shen Hetang. According to the laws of Daqi, blackmail and blackmail stick two Bai, half a year in prison, Wang Er, you wait for the hammer and go to jail."
A trace of panic flashed across Wang Er's face, he quickly glanced at Dou Haoxiao, he was not looking at Dou Haoxiao, but Dou Haoxiao's master.
The master gave him a look, and Wang Er quickly calmed down again: "Miss Biao, this prescription was prescribed by a doctor. I didn't know that this prescription was wrong. But anyway, Shen Hetang sells counterfeit medicine. The facts are well-documented, this point, no matter how much you talk about it, you can’t say that black is white.”
"That's right, black is black, no matter what, it can't become white." Gu Chongyang said: "You said that the doctor prescribed the wrong medicine, but you forgot that every prescription will have the doctor's signature on it. Otherwise, the pharmacy won’t sell medicine. You can’t read, so of course you don’t know it. It’s Dr. Huang Po Huang’s signature. Did the doctor prescribe the wrong medicine, or did you pick up someone else’s prescription to blackmail you? Come, it will be clear."
"Is there any fellow countryman who is willing to do a favor and invite this Doctor Huang to come over?"
As soon as Gu Chongyang's words came out, someone immediately ran out to invite someone.
After a while, the old doctor, who thought he had white beard and hair, was helped up tremblingly.
Dr. Huang has been practicing medicine in Nanjing for many years, and he is well-known in the neighborhood, and many people know him.
"Doctor Huang, may I know this prescription?" Gu Chongyang handed the prescription to Doctor Huang and said, "Wang Er said that his father had typhoid fever, and you prescribed this prescription. May I ask if what he said is true?"
"Fucking shit!" Doctor Huang, who is highly skilled in medicine and has a good temper, scolded on the spot after hearing this: "This is the postpartum blood collapse soup I prescribed for Mrs. Zhao Xiangshen. When did I give it to Wang Er?" Have you ever seen typhoid fever? Wang Er, you bastard wants to slander me and harm me, and you don’t even open your eyes to see who your grandpa Huang is? You were so sick that year that you were dying. If it weren’t for you, grandpa Huang, I would be mad Charity doesn't charge you a doctor's fee, you bastard would have given your life a long time ago. If I didn't see you pitifully recommending you to work part-time at Zhao Squire's house, you would have starved to death a long time ago, and you dared to harm your Grandpa Huang! I'll kill you heartless little bastard!"
Dr. Huang is old and has good medical skills. He is respected in this generation, and no one has dared to offend him. He raised his crutches and beat Wang Er up and down.
Wang Er begged for mercy while running: "Grandpa Huang, please forgive me..."
Wang Er ran away, but Father Wang was still there. Doctor Huang took his anger out on Father Wang: "You bastard who is so old and careless, you gave birth to such a son, and you still mess around with them. I will teach you a lesson for your father who died this year!"
Papa Wang was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, but he was firmly on the crutches, and when he couldn't take it anymore, he got up and ran away quickly. How could he look sick at all?
Everyone was amused by this farce, and couldn't help laughing loudly.
Dou Haoxiao's face was very ugly, and he gave the master a hard look.
Gu Chongyang said loudly: "My lord, since it has been proved that Wang Er deliberately blackmailed, can the Shen family be cleared?"
"Miss Biao, you are wrong, one yard is one yard, and Wang Er's blackmail is blackmail, but he took the medicine from Shen Hetang. It is also true that Tian Qi is fake. Shen Hetang must be sealed, and everyone in the Shen family is not innocent. "
"Master, I heard you right!" Gu Chongyang sneered and said, "Father Wang is not sick at all, and the medicine Wang Er took is a fiction. Shen Hetang's medicine was sold to Mr. Zhao's family, not Mr. Wang. Second. As for where Wang Er’s fake medicine came from, I’m afraid I have to ask Mr. Dou?”
"Nonsense!" Dou Haoxiao blushed with blue veins on his forehead, "How could this government know where he got the fake medicine from?"
"Master Dou doesn't know now, but you can arrest Wang Er and torture him severely, and ask the person behind the scenes." Gu Chongyang said with a smile: "Master Dou has always been fair, and today the Shen family has suffered such unfair injustice. Lord Dou will definitely give the Shen family justice."
Now that things have happened, Dou Haoxiao knows that his situation is over, and it is impossible to frame the Shen family.Unexpectedly, the master and Wang Er were so useless, seeing that the Shen family was going to be in trouble, they even failed.
"This government has its own rules and regulations for handling cases, and other people don't have to comment." He snorted coldly and said, "Go back to the government!"
"Since the Shen family is innocent, please leave the plaque behind." Gu Chongyang smiled proudly: "Authentic medicinal materials, herbs that benefit the people, Shen Hetang still deserves this plaque."
Dou Haoxiao didn't speak, and got on the sedan chair directly. The officials who carried the plaque were very embarrassed and didn't know what to do.
"Master Dou didn't say anything, he just acquiesced!" Gu Chongyang ordered unceremoniously: "Hurry up and hang up the plaque."
"Yes, yes." The officer repeatedly agreed and hung up the plaque.
This farce has finally come to an end.
When Ruifeng reported the news to Wang Jiulang, he was sipping tea: "As I said, this little girl is smart and pungent, and ordinary people would never want to please her in front of her."
Although it was belittled, there was a bit of complacency inside and out of the words, clearly seeing her as one of his own.
Ruifeng smiled slightly and said: "If I care about it, it will be chaotic. I was afraid that Ms. Gu would suffer a disadvantage and sent someone to look at it. I didn't expect that my master guessed it right. Ms. Gu pressed on every step of the way and forced the prefect of Dou to retreat steadily. The originally good situation fell apart. It's a pity that Master Jiu didn't see it with his own eyes. Miss Gu is eloquent and eloquent, and even I applauded Miss Gu along with those people."
"That little girl is used to pretending, and people who don't know will be deceived by her innocent and harmless appearance. In fact, she is smart." Wang Jiulang said this softly, and her eyes appeared in front of her eyes. He blinked his big eyes angrily.
"As expected of the person Jiu Ye wants to protect, I was surprised, but now that I know, Miss Gu is indeed not an ordinary person if you can get into Jiu Ye's eyes, it's because of your piercing eyes."
"It's gold that always shines, and she has qualities that ordinary people don't have." Wang Jiulang's cold face was a little loose, his eyes were bright, and he slightly curled his lips and said: "Dou Haoxiao, let someone stare at you, I'm afraid that he will come to hell."
Ruifeng replied yes, and slowly backed out.
Jiuye showed extraordinary concern for Miss Gu, which made him think that Jiuye was in love with a man and a woman.But before he had time to be happy, Lord Jiu personally shattered his fantasy.
For a person like Master Jiu, how could an ordinary woman make him fall in love?
He was just admiring Miss Gu, a kind of care, and a kind of interest.
Ruifeng remembered a puppy named Xuerong that Master Jiu had fed before. It was given to Master Jiu by the master before his death. Master Jiu treated Xuerong very well and ate and slept with it.After the master died, Master Jiu didn't care about everything, the only thing he cared about was Xue Rong.
After Xuerong's death, he never saw Master Jiu was so interested in who or what.
Now it seems that Master Jiu treats Miss Gu just like she treats Xuerong, without affection between men and women, but just takes care of her like a pet and takes it to heart.
Miss Gu is too young. Although she is beautiful and tall, she is not a big girl after all, and she cannot attract a man like Master Jiu.
Jiu Ye is too lonely, it is not easy for Miss Gu to loosen Jiu Ye's frozen heart.
Forget it, pets should be pets, it's better than a pool of stagnant water that was as cold as ice.
In the future, we must find a way to let Miss Gu and Master Jiu get in touch more.
