Chapter 726: New Clues
Zhao Hefu was shocked, and involuntarily took a step back, pushing forward with both hands: "You, how do you know, who are you?" ”
Qin Lin smiled slightly, opened the hem of his clothes slightly, and Beizhen Fusi's tiger head waist card dazzled Zhao Hefu's eyes, making his face pale and trembling all over.
After all, Zhao Hefu is not a White Lotus demon bandit or a Jiangyang thief, but a doctor who treats diseases and saves people, and if he provokes the six doors of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Shuntian Mansion or something, it is enough for him to drink a pot, and it is the turn of the notorious Beizhen Fusi to come out and immediately scare him so much that his soul flies in the air.
Seeing this, the wives and children of the Zhao family made a mess, and his wife was stunned for a moment before jumping up, shaking Zhao Hefu's arm, and her voice was crying: "The head of the family, the head of the family, what sin did you commit to provoke the Fusi of Beizhen to our door?" ”
The white-haired old mother slapped the cane, and the old tears fell: "Daughter-in-law, you still don't understand? In the past two years, your husband has been on the doctor, taking back a lot of silver, building a house and expanding a garden, and I am uneasy as a mother, and I don't listen to him, just perfunctory to my old man's house...... I'm afraid that the silver is hot in my hands! ”
Qin Lin sighed, knowing that his son is like his mother, and the old lady of the Zhao family is a lot older, but she can see it clearly than her son.
"If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do," Xu Xinyi took a step forward, and stared at Zhao Hefu with round apricot eyes: "What you do, you know it yourself!" If you don't get it right, the crime of bullying the king is to raid the family and the three clans! ”
Mrs. Zhao paused her crutches and looked at her son sadly: "Evil obstacles, evil obstacles!" I, the third generation of the Zhao family, practiced medicine and accumulated virtue, but I didn't expect it to be destroyed in your hands! ”
Zhao Hefu's face was red and white, sweat flowed down his sideburns, and he knelt down with a puff: "I'll move, I'll move, ask the two officials to raise their noble hands......"
Qin Lin and Xu Xinyi made a look, he grabbed the collar and slipped Zhao Hefu into the room, Xu Xinyi opened the door and let the sword into the courtyard, and asked her to guard the Zhao family with the sword, and did not allow them to talk nonsense and make trouble.
Zhao Hefu is just a doctor, how did he go through this battle? Since Beizhen Fusi came to the door, his psychological defense line had already collapsed, and after being lifted into the room, he collapsed on the ground, crying and crying with a sad face: "Wronged, wronged!" It is true that he secretly treats Liang Gongzi, but the sinner could not have imagined that he would go crazy and go to participate in the selection of horses regardless of his death......"
Okay, this is the most painful criminal that Qin Lin has ever caught, he didn't confess at all, and before he could ask questions, he completely confessed.
According to Zhao Hefu's confession, as early as three years ago, when Liang Bangduan was just suffering from tuberculosis, he was invited to go for treatment. He found that the phlegm coughed up by Liang Bangduan was foamy mixed with blood, the shape was cold and sweaty, the body was emaciated, the tongue was light and scarce, the tongue coating was bare, and the pulse was weak and weak.
Liang Fu was overjoyed, gave him five hundred taels of silver, and said that Liang Bangduan would meet friends with literature, and his literary name was Sheng, and he wanted to make friends with Confucianism and celebrities in Beijing, and tuberculosis had the risk of infection, and everyone avoided it, so Zhao Hefu was required to keep it a secret.
Zhao Hefu was at war with heaven and man in his heart, and at the last moment he was confused, feeling that tuberculosis might not be contagious, and Liang Bangduan was in contact with young people with vigorous qi and blood, so he might not be able to suffer from tuberculosis, so he agreed to Liang's request.
At the invitation of the Liang government, he used Ziheche, turtle plate gum, deer horn gum, cordyceps sinensis and other precious drugs to cultivate Liang Bangduan's innate essence and blood, so that he could maintain a ruddy complexion and a normal body, and not show the yellow and thin appearance of a tuberculosis ghost.
In the next three years, Zhao Hefu kept a strict secret, regularly treated Liang Bangduan, in exchange for a generous reward, but never recovered, Liang Bangduan's condition has become more and more serious this year, almost to the point of running out of oil and lamps, Zhao Hefu is powerless, fortunately, the Liang family knew that this was an incurable disease three years ago, and it was not too difficult for him.
If things pass like this, then it's okay, but Zhao Hefu never dreamed that Liang Bangduan, a dying man, would go to participate in the selection of horses, and he was really selected!
Liang Bangduan's behavior is a marriage cheating in the people's house, but Zhu Yaoyuan's compatriot brother is the current Wanli Emperor, so the crime has become a deception!
When Zhao Hefu heard the news, it really seemed that a thunderbolt exploded in mid-air, and he was stunned, but his surname was indecisive, and he wanted to come forward to report and clear his name, but he couldn't make up his mind.
At this time, the Liang family sent someone to find him again, and some coercion and temptation made him keep his mouth shut.
Zhao Hefu became more and more frightened, on the surface perfunctory, secretly preparing for the whole family to escape, but before he could leave, he was caught by Qin Lin.
"Alright, alright!" Xu Xinyi clapped his hands and laughed after listening to the confession: "Now that we have a witness, we can go and kick Feng Bao's ass!" Look at him, how can Feng Dugong deny it this time? Hmph, how dare you choose a dying leprosy ghost for Cousin Yao to be a colt! ”
"Feng Bao, Feng Dugong? Kill the villain! Zhao Hefu had a bitter look on his face, he was about to faint, what kind of person is this, Feng Bao is the palm seal of the celebrant and the governor of Dongchang, these two are actually going to kick his ass!
I'd rather bear the crime of bullying the king than dare to offend Feng Dugong! He didn't mean to deceive, at most he didn't report it, even if Long Yan was angry, he would lose his head and exile his family, but if he provoked Feng Dugong, it was estimated that the whole family would have to go to Huangquan!
Xu Xinyi was angry when he saw him like this, and he was ready to attack with both hands on his waist, Qin Lin waved his hand: "That's it, just such a personal certificate is too thin, and we are still charged with leaving our duties without permission when we return to Beijing, so we must hit it with one blow, and we can't give the other party a chance to deny and quibble." ”
The Liang family can completely deny it, saying that they don't know Zhao Hefu, and Zhao Hefu can't have strong evidence to prove that he has treated tuberculosis for Liang Bangduan, Liang Bangduan said that he had a cold recently, and Qin Lin couldn't cut his lungs for examination! At that time, Feng Bao, Liu Shouyou and others stood up and beat a rake, accusing Qin Lin of leaving his post without permission, but he was in trouble.
Qin Lin frowned and thought about it, this matter still had to fall on Zhao Hefu, so he said in a deep voice: "Zhao Hefu, if you can provide more conclusive evidence, this official can consider letting you go!" Otherwise, arrest your whole family and go to the Fusi prison in Beizhen, and then you will call every day no, shout that the earth is not spiritual, and you can't survive and die! ”
Zhao Hefu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, grabbed his scalp and thought about it, and suddenly shouted: "Ah, there is, a year and a half ago, Liang Bangduan had a fat girl ring by his side, coughing for no reason, and she was diagnosed with tuberculosis for no reason...... This girl probably knows something. ”
"What's the name of this girl ring and where does she live?" Qin Lin thought for a while, and then asked, "Since she also suffered from tuberculosis, is she still alive in the world?" ”
Mentioning these, Zhao Hefu finally regained a little self-confidence: "Her name is Chun Tao, I heard that because she was born white and fat, the old lady of Liang Mansion looks like she is blessed, so she was specially sent to serve the sick Liang Bangduan." Chun Tao's body is better than Liang Bang's, and after taking the medicine prescribed by the villain, even if it can't be cured, it will always be a problem to drag it out for three or five years. Her home, let me think about it...... By the way, I remember hearing the girls say that it is near Xiaotangshan in the north of Jingshi. ”
There is a hot spring in Xiaotangshan in Changping County in the north of the Beijing Division, which is set up as the royal forbidden garden, for the royal family and the dignitaries to bathe, Xu Xinyi often led the female soldiers out of the city to hunt after arriving in the Beijing Division, and also went there.
Without further ado, Qin Lin and Xu Xinyi were about to rush to Xiaotangshan immediately, and before leaving, Qin Lin smiled at Zhao Hefu: "If you don't report it, it can be regarded as a crime of bullying the king, but if you are coerced, you will not die!" It's just that the death penalty can be avoided, but the living sin cannot be escaped, and you can confess the sin? ”
"Plead guilty, plead guilty!" Zhao Hefu felt that it was a great fortune to be able to die, and looked at Qin Lin with blank eyes: "I don't know what you said about the living crime, my lord?" ”
Qin Lin thought for a while: "Then punish you for the rest of your life, every 369 days, and treat tuberculosis for free for the poor people of Jingshi, but in the future, you must do things with your conscience, and you must not be fooled by ghosts." ”
Zhao Hefu descended from the sky, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, thanking the two adults for opening up.
Qin Linnian was conscientious in Zhao Hefu's usual work to treat the people, and accumulated virtue and good deeds for half his life, but he was confused and did stupid things for a while, after all, he was tempted and coerced by the Liang government, and not reporting it was different from actively committing the crime of bullying the king, so he replaced the punishment with a punishment, and asked him to treat the disease and save people and make meritorious service to atone for his crimes.
Zhao Hefu walked on the edge of life and death, and realized that he looked down on fame and fortune, and since then he has really treated patients without remuneration, hung pots to help the world, and saved thousands of lives. How do you know that things in the world are so strange, Zhao Hefu does not seek fame and fortune but fame and fortune, and gradually rises in reputation and becomes a banner in the medical world of Beijing, a few years later, he repeatedly mentioned Qin Lin's original leniency in the book "Miscellaneous Treatises on Tuberculosis", and he still can't help but sigh.
But at this time, Zhao Hefu couldn't think of so much, Qin Lin told him to keep it secret, he really didn't dare to say more, only told his family the news that he had been forgiven, and suddenly the old and young Zhao family hulala knelt on the ground, thank Qin Lin and Xu Xinyi for raising their noble hands.
"By the way, if you want to live longer, take your wife and children to avoid it for a while," Qin Lin asked Zhao Hefu's family to go out of the city for a circle first, and then Hong Yangshan and Ma Bin would pick them up and take them to a safe place.
The Liang family has committed the crime of bullying the king, and it is difficult to guarantee that they will not jump off the wall in a hurry.
After doing this, Qin Lin and Xu Xinyi got on the dirty-painted two horses and marched towards Xiaotangshan in the north of Jingshi.
Qin Lin was a little absent-minded along the way, he was thinking about a question: any crime has a motive, and the Liang family did not hesitate to commit the crime of bullying the king, what was it for? It is true that as long as Yongning marries, even if Liang Bangduan dies immediately, Wanli and Empress Dowager Li are forced to do nothing to the Liang family, and even take good care of them, but the Liang family is worth taking such a big risk?
