Chapter 155: Slander

When he was chatting happily, he saw the old man Han who was guarding the door stumbling in.

"Dao Chief, it's not good! Someone carried a corpse down the doorstep, saying that you had healed the dead, and came to ask for an explanation! ”

Zhang Rongkun frowned and said, "I'll go out and have a look!" He turned back and told Chen Youcong and Feng Hao: "You guys leave through the back door quickly!" He walked out.

Chen Youcong was reluctant to turn around and leave when Zhang Rongkun was in trouble, and planned to wait to see what the situation was.

Zhang Rongkun came to the door, but saw a corpse covered with a white cloth lying on the stone steps in front of the door, and several men and women wearing linen and filial piety were crying and scolding there. A middle-aged man said in a loud voice:

"The quack doctor surnamed Zhang, you give Lao Tzu out! My father is old and has a bad stomach, and he is prone to diarrhea when he eats melons and fruits in summer, so he invited you to recuperate. You said that after taking your medicine for a few days, it will get better, but who knew that my father took the medicine, and his stomach was like a bulge, and he died of bloating. You're going to pay for my father's life! ”

Another man shouted, "How can you cure a person and be a turtle with a shrunken head?" Don't think that you can bully people if you have an apprentice in the palace! If our family is out of the way, we will avenge my father's grievances! ”

When several men jumped to their feet and scolded, several women next to them sat cross-legged next to the corpse and patted their legs and cried loudly: "My father! You left us and went like this! You died so unjustly! How do you tell us to live! "A handful of snot and a handful of tears.

This movement attracted many people to watch.

When he was scolding, he saw Zhang Rongkun walking out fearlessly, and said loudly: "How did the person die, before it has been investigated, you have convicted Lao Dao here?" You're doctors, huh? Or is it the lord of the government? Zhang Rongkun saw that these people were not good, and they were clearly here to make trouble, so he was not polite at all.

The eldest man came out and said, "My father died after taking your medicine!" You can't get rid of it if you want to! You have a great reputation, and your visits and medicines are much more expensive than other doctors, and we are looking for you to make your father's illness better as soon as possible, but you have no real name! is a quack doctor who specializes in cheating! Today, I will arrest you and go to the government, so that you can pay for my father's life! ”

"Don't be busy crying just yet. Since you have brought the person here, lift the cloth and let me see if I have died from my medicine, and look at the symptoms. Zhang Rongkun remembered that these people were a wealthy family surnamed Sun in the suburbs of Beijing, and he did see a doctor and prescribed medicine to his old man a few days ago, but this old man just had a bad stomach, and it was not a serious illness, and he also prescribed warm medicine, and he would definitely not eat the dead.

The old avenue of the Sun family: "My father is dead, do you still want to abuse his corpse?" ”

Zhang Rongkunqi said: "Since you brought it, aren't you just here to show people?" How do I know if he's your dad if I don't look at it? Maybe somewhere did you find someone to slander me? ”

The second child of the Sun family said: "The old Taoist doctor is still so ugly when he speaks!" Turning his head to the people who were watching the excitement around: "My father died unjustly, I'll let everyone see the comments now!" ”

As he spoke, he lifted the cloth from the deceased's body. I saw an old man with gray hair lying on the mat. The old man's belly was as big as a drum, and his face was bruised, and he really looked like he was swelling to death.

Suddenly seeing the true face of the corpse, the crowd was in an uproar.

Zhang Rongkun stepped forward and said, "Let me take a closer look." ”

But he was stopped by those people in the Sun family and shouted: "Don't you let everyone go when they are dead?" ”

Zhang Rongkun said loudly: "He didn't swell to death!" His face is bruised, but the roots of his ears are black, do you dare to show his fingernails for me to see? If the nails are also black, then it is not from abdominal distention, but from arsenic poison! ”

There was a bit of panic in the eyes of those people.

Sun Lao Er said: "If you are afraid of taking responsibility, you will naturally say that it is poisoning instead of taking the wrong medicine!" ”

Sun Laosan said: "Don't think that if you talk nonsense, you don't have to be responsible!" ”

Zhang Rongkun said: "If you don't believe me, you can call other doctors to take a look!" ”

Among the people living nearby in the crowd under the stone steps, many of them have received the favor of Zhang Rongkun, and then someone spoke: "That's right, call other doctors to come and talk about it, how can you see that there must be a problem with Zhang Daochang's medicine?" ”

"Maybe your family has no good offspring, and someone deliberately drugged the old man?"

"That's right." More people chimed in.

The men were even more panicked, and the women stopped weeping.

At this time, a scholar who came out of the crowd said loudly: "This world is so unfair! Just because there are people on this old road who support and heal people, not only do they not have to bear the responsibility, but they slander others for killing their own fathers, isn't this a rake? ”

Another person sang and harmonized: "It's a pity that your family is all white and has no backstage, otherwise you can still be bullied like this?" The common people have no way to live, bitter! ”

It is only because these words speak the hearts of many people, and many people who are usually cautious and live in fear have heard these words, which has aroused many righteous indignation in their own homes. Those who were not familiar with Zhang Rongkun, and thought that he was really a bully, also started to talk about it.

As soon as the Sun family saw the reversal of the situation, they immediately came back to their senses. The women cried again: "Father, you don't understand how you die! Daddy......"

Boss Sun made a gesture of righteous indignation: "As a son, if you can't avenge your father's grievances, do you still deserve to live?" Now I'm fighting to the death, and I want to get justice from this demon! As he spoke, he was about to come up and tear Zhang Rongkun. Several other people followed.

The scholar below applauded: "This is really a great filial son!" ”

At this moment, someone suddenly stepped out of the mystical temple and said loudly: "If you have a grievance, please go to the government to complain!" If you want to hurt people for no reason, this is gathering people to make trouble, what kind of filial piety! ”

The person who came out was Feng Hao. It turned out that Chen Youcong and Feng Hao had just come to the ear room not far from the gate to look outside, seeing that the situation was out of control, the two of them were afraid that Zhang Rongkun would be injured, and there was no one else in the audience who could come out to help, so Chen Youcong was inconvenient to come forward, so Feng Hao came forward to mediate.

Boss Sun stopped his hand and squinted at Feng Hao: "Who are you?" What's the matter with you? ”

Someone answered in a weird way: "Look at the dress is a slave of a rich family, it seems that the old man has made a lot of rich and noble families." ”

Someone in the cold crowd shouted in a shrill voice: "Oops! This is a father-in-law! is the most powerful Gonggong Feng by the prince's side! ”

There was an uproar, and suddenly more people flocked to this side.

Feng Hao didn't expect that someone would suddenly reveal his identity, he was not like the chief eunuchs of the Twelve Eunuchs, who had a house and property outside the palace, and often came out to walk around, and there were many people in the capital who knew them. Feng Hao followed the prince in the palace all day long, rarely went out of the palace, and today he deliberately changed his disguise, how could anyone in the market recognize him?

He felt bad, these people might not have come for Zhang Rongkun, but originally for the prince! Feng Hao immediately broke out in sweat, thinking about how to quickly protect the prince and retreat.

However, he was not allowed to think about it, and when Boss Sun heard that someone called Feng Hao's identity, he suddenly cried loudly: "I said that this demon way is still so presumptuous to kill people, it turns out that there is the support of the prince." God, did my father die in vain? Even if I die today, I will seek justice for my father. ”

As he spoke, he slammed his head against the doorpost with a bang, and his face was covered with blood and he fainted.

The people around him did not pull him when he was making a gesture to hit his head, but when he lay down on the ground, they gathered around him.

This one said, "Big brother! Big brother, wake up! ”

That one pounced: "Husband! What's wrong with you, husband? If you go, I won't live! ”

Someone discussed below: "Is the prince such a person?" Conniving at his subordinates to oppress the people? ”

Someone replied: "The prince loves to cultivate the Tao, and he is also confused by this demonic way." ”

"The demon road is not shallow! Did the emperor just sit back and watch the crown prince mingle with such a person? ”

Some people who are not familiar with the inside story think that they have seen a drama in which the powerful abused the people, causing the people to be unbearable and indignant, and committed suicide by hitting the pillar, and they are also filled with righteous indignation.

When Feng Hao saw such a scene, he wanted to quietly retreat to the view, but he was pushed and surrounded by the crowd, unable to move.

Zhang Rongkun said loudly: "Lao Dao and you will go to see the official!" On the merits, please judge Lord Yin! If Fu Yin said that it was the responsibility of the old man, I would rather pay for your father's life! ”。

When there was a lot of noise, someone suddenly shouted outside the crowd: "The official has arrived, get out of the way!" ”

There were a few people who looked like errands, with knives hanging from their waists, and walked over with high spirits. The common people were still afraid to see such people, and hurriedly got out of the way and let them in.

As soon as the men entered, the two brothers of the Sun family went over to complain to them, and as they spoke, they asked them to see their father and eldest brother lying on the ground, and the servants listened and played officially. Suddenly, I heard that Gonggong Feng beside the prince was here, and several people hurried over to greet him.

An errand officer said: "It turns out that Father-in-law Feng is here, the little one has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, it's rude, father-in-law is not to blame!" Several others also bowed their heads and bowed.

These actions are tantamount to confirming Feng Hao's identity, which is equivalent to roasting Feng Hao on the fire, which has attracted everyone's eyes here.

Feng Hao said in a low voice: "You just have to handle the case, don't delay your errand." ”

"Good! The villain obeys! Father-in-law, go and do your own business! Don't let the prince wait for a long time. We're going to take the people back. This Taoist chief, I'm afraid he will have to be wronged to go to the Yin Yamen. The officers were also very polite to Zhang Rongkun.

However, when he turned around, he yelled at the Sun family, pushed and shoved.

These gestures of the errand officers further confirmed the rumors that Zhang Rongkun was bullying and that the prince favored the demons.

But in such a situation, Feng Hao and Zhang Rongkun were wrong no matter what they said at this time. Zhang Rongkun twisted his eyebrows and followed the servant. Feng Hao didn't dare to look back directly, so as not to be seen that the prince was in the view, so he left the Xuanmiao Temple quickly in a cold sweat, and went around the back alley to the back door to look for Chen Youcong.
