Chapter 36: Confrontation in court
After getting Dr. Zhu's current address, Liu Zhixian immediately issued an arrest warrant. With the arrest warrant in hand, the head of the county government rushed into the backyard of the security hall with a group of arresters. When the servants rushed in, Dr. Zhu was holding a secret meeting with the owner of the security hall. Due to the suddenness of the raid, they were caught off guard.
Ignoring the other people in the house, the catchers went directly to Dr. Zhu. Before he could come to his senses, he was already surrounded by arresters. showed the certificate of arrest by the county government, and Dr. Zhu was immediately arrested and taken away. In this process, none of the onlookers dared to come forward to say a word.
It didn't take long for Dr. Zhu to be brought to the court. Until this time, he had not figured out why he had been arrested. Looking at Dr. Zhu with a blank face, a smile appeared on the corner of Su Wen's mouth. When the answer is revealed later, his expression will definitely be very exciting.
Like most of the people of this era, Dr. Zhu also had a deep fear of the yamen. Being watched by more than a dozen pairs of eyes, he immediately became frightened and weakened.
After he finished saluting, Liu Zhixian asked with a cold face: "Zhu Dapeng, this county sent someone to arrest you, do you know the reason?" ”
Hearing this question, Dr. Zhu's heart couldn't help but tremble. He's really been preparing to do a bad thing lately, could it happen so soon? Thinking of this, he immediately rejected this conjecture in his heart. This time, he is cooperating with Dr. He, the proprietor of the Baoan Hall, and it is impossible for the conspiracy to be exposed.
In the territory of Yunzhou City, Dr. He is a well-deserved medical tyrant. Except for the old lady Hua who had just died, there was no one here who could compete with him. can become the medical tyrant of Yunzhou City, of course, Dr. He has quite a hard backer. If it weren't for that, he would have been ruined by his disgruntled peers.
According to the previous agreement, Dr. He will be responsible for opening up the relationship between the various yamen. It was precisely because of his careful arrangement that he dared to do something to frame An Hetang.
After thinking about it in his mind, Dr. Zhu never figured out a clue, and could only reply with a cry: "The grass people are stupid, I don't know the reason why the adults caught the grass people, and I ask the adults to make it clear." ”
Hearing his answer, Liu Zhixian's face sank, and he scolded sharply: "Boldly Diao the people, do you still want to deny it?" ”
This sound was like a thunderous explosion, and Dr. Zhu was immediately frightened and trembled. At this moment, his mind immediately fell into a blank state.
Seeing his reaction, Liu Zhixian snorted coldly, slapped the startling wood in his hand heavily, and scolded sharply: "Say, did you buy those fake medicinal materials on purpose?" ”
Hearing the sound of the startling wood, Dr. Zhu was frightened and trembled again. Fortunately, this time he finally came back to his senses, and his mind was no longer as blank as before.
Regaining the ability to think, Dr. Zhu finally understood the reason why he was arrested. He swept his eyes around the court, and immediately found Su Wen standing on the edge of the court. Combined with the reason he heard just now, Dr. Zhu immediately guessed Su Wen's identity. Although he guessed it, he couldn't believe it for a while.
As far as he knew, after Mrs. Hua passed away, there were only three female dependents left in the Hua family. Among the three people, only Hua Suwen is so young. The conspiracy to frame the Hua family was revealed, could it all be done by this thirteen-year-old Hua Suwen? Faced with such a possibility, Dr. Zhu only felt unbelievable.
Seeing that he didn't reply for a long time, Liu Zhixian slapped the shocking wood in his hand again. This time, his attention was finally drawn.
Thinking of Liu Zhixian's question just now, Dr. Zhu immediately replied in a panic: "If you go back to the county master, the grass people are wronged." Those medicinal materials were all bought by Dr. Hua before, and they had nothing to do with the grass people. ”
Hearing his answer, a cold glint flashed in Su Wen's eyes. Sure enough, as she expected, Dr. Zhu decisively splashed all the dirty water on Mrs. Hua's body. Unfortunately, their layout was not yet complete, which gave her a chance to fight back. If she had found out a few days later, she might have really been unable to do anything.
After listening to Dr. Zhu's confession, Liu Zhixian slapped the shocking wood in his hand violently, and at the same time scolded sharply: "Until now, you still don't know how to repent, is there still a royal law in your eyes?" ”
Although he was taken aback, Dr. Zhu still gritted his teeth and insisted: "My lord, the grass people are really wronged. Even if you punish the grass, you can't change the fact that those medicinal herbs were bought by Dr. Hua. ”
Hearing this, the look on Liu Zhixian's face was a little hesitant. Could it be that Dr. Zhu was really wronged, he may really have nothing to do with these medicinal materials?
Seeing the hesitation on Liu Zhixian's face, Su Wen immediately knelt down, raised his head and said with a resolute face: "My lord, the folk girl has something to say, please allow it." ”
Liu Zhixian glanced down at the hall, his eyes revealed a trace of doubt, and then he hesitated and said, "Miss Hua has something to say, this county is ready." ”
With permission, Su Wen immediately said solemnly: "My lord, the folk girl has a few questions she wants to ask Dr. Zhu, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
Liu Zhixian thought about it for a while, and felt that there would be no mistakes, so he hesitated and replied: "Since you have a question to ask, then the county will allow it." ”
"Thank you, Lord Liu!" Su Wen saluted to the court, and when he turned to Doctor Zhu, he asked, "Have you always been in charge of the procurement of medicinal materials in Anhetang?" Please answer yes or no. ”
Hearing this question, Dr. Zhu thought for a moment and felt that everyone knew about it, and then replied: "Yes!" ”
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Wen continued to ask, "Except for this time, has Dr. Hua ever bought fake medicinal materials?" Please answer yes or no. ”
After hesitating for a moment, Dr. Zhu finally replied with a tangled face: "As far as I know, Dr. Hua has done this kind of thing before. ”
Hearing this answer, Liu Zhixian's eyes widened in surprise. Dr. Hua is one of the top doctors in Yunzhou City, and he can do shoddy things? Compared with Liu Zhixian, Su Wen was very calm. She had long expected Dr. Zhu to answer like this, so she was not surprised at all.
Glancing at Dr. Zhu mockingly, Su Wen turned his head to the hall and said, "My lord, the question of the people's daughter has been asked, but there are a few words I want to say, I don't know if it is okay?" ”
Glancing at Su Wen, who was as calm as usual, Liu Zhixian showed a curious look. She asked Dr. Zhu a question, but she implicated Dr. Hua, did she still want to defend Dr. Hua?
