Chapter 15 Conspiracy in progress
Rong Jingru discovered that you could indeed see what was happening here by looking up, and there was almost half of the food left on the table.
"Moreover, the shopkeeper of Mo Lianju later invited doctors over, but they still refused to let people come forward for inspection. I even suspected that they came to Mo Lianju deliberately to find trouble." Ding Qiyan continued.
The young man on the side pretended to be grief-stricken, but said to Ding Qiyan: "Don't talk nonsense here, there is obviously something wrong with the food in the store."
"That's wrong. You said there was something wrong with the food in our restaurant. I invited Dr. Xiao from Tongantang to check his pulse, but you didn't let him come forward. What do you mean?" The shopkeeper felt speechless for a while.
This person's acting is a little too fake. He really thinks that Mo Lianju is so easy to bully, and he doesn't even want to see if their boss will agree.
Rong Jingru also noticed at this time that an old man with a medicine box was standing not far away. She thought that this person should be the old doctor Xiao invited by Mo Lianju.
"I'm telling you, brother, if you prevent the doctor from checking, the uncle lying on the ground could have been revived, but because of you, unimaginable consequences will be caused. You will cry when the time comes.
I can't cry." When Rong Jingru saw this situation, she guessed that they were probably trying to extort money.
"Who are you, girl? You're not the owner of this restaurant, are you?" The person whom Rong Jingru called her eldest brother noticed that Rong Jingru had a delicate appearance and an extraordinary temperament. At first glance, she was no ordinary person.
"I'm just a diner who comes here to eat, not the owner of Mo Lianju."
"Since you are not the owner here, please step aside and stop meddling in other people's business." A middle-aged woman next to the young man said impatiently.
Rong Jingru looked at the middle-aged woman's eyes twinkling and full of calculations, and knew there must be something fishy hidden inside.
She really acted like she wanted to take care of it. If it wasn't for the system task, who would come to this troubled water.
Rong Jingru rolled her eyes speechlessly. As soon as this discerning person saw it, he knew that there was something wrong inside. It was not at all like what the young man said just now.
"You are not this person's friend and want to exonerate her, are you?" A young girl next to them suddenly said.
"I just said, I'm just a diner here for dinner. I don't know this girl." Rong Jingru looked at her with a cold expression.
The girl's eyes were filled with jealousy, but she didn't expect Rong Jingru's gaze to be so terrifying, causing her to step back involuntarily.
"The two of them are indeed diners who come to our restaurant for dinner." The shopkeeper couldn't stand it anymore. After all, Rong Jingru was also rescuing Mo Lianju for them.
The people who were watching and joining in the fun started making noise again.
"Old doctor Xiao from Tongantang has excellent medical skills. You'd better let him see it."
"It's just that the most poisonous thing is a woman's heart. Who knows what this girl wants to do?"
It seems that these people came prepared, and they don't know who Mo Lianju has offended recently.
"The official will be here soon. We can just ask the official to make a decision then. I believe that the official will not wrongly accuse a good person, nor let a bad person go." The shopkeeper was not worried at all.
As soon as the onlookers heard that the shopkeeper had summoned the officials, they felt that there was something exciting to watch.
"Is this person lying on the ground a relative of yours? If you keep dragging it on like this, if something happens to this person, it will be too late for you to regret it. After all, you are also one of the accomplices who forced him to death." Rong Rong
Jingru kindly reminded them again.
A trace of panic flashed in the eyes of the three people, but they quickly regained their composure. After all, the man who gave them the money before they came said that no one would be killed.
However, they were still caught by Rong Jingru, who had been paying attention to them.
Everyone watching in the restaurant suddenly realized.
"You keep saying you are worried, but you deliberately delay time and prevent Dr. Xiao from treating people." Someone in the audience suddenly said.
"Yes, you can definitely rest assured about Dr. Xiao's character."
The discussion among the spectators became louder and louder.
Rong Jingru noticed that the man lying on the ground had something wrong with his expression, and originally wanted Jin Wushuang to come forward.
At this time, a voice came out, "The yamen has an order, everyone is waiting to give in!"
Rong Jingru then saw the crowd making a way out of the way, and an official in official uniform walked in from the outside, and quickly glanced around the crowd with sharp eyes.
"What's going on, Shopkeeper Ning?" one of the detectives asked.
"Sir, sir, these people are trying to frame our restaurant. I invited Dr. Xiao from Tong'antang to come over, but they stopped me from inspecting it." Shopkeeper Ning said in a neither humble nor overbearing tone.
The policeman also noticed Old Doctor Xiao at this time.
"Old Doctor Xiao, please show this man."
Because it was the policeman who asked Old Doctor Xiao to go check it out, the three people who just blocked him had to make way.
"What's going on with you, girl?" Another agent looked at Ding Qiyan.
"Master Guancha, my father is also a doctor. I happened to have dinner at Molianju today. When I encountered this kind of thing, I wanted to go up and have a look. I never thought I would encounter such a thing."
"Where are you two?" At this time, the policeman also noticed Rong Jingru, who was dressed in fine clothes, and Jin Wushuang, who was holding a long sword.
"We also eat here." Jin Wushuang said directly.
However, the detective found these three girls very interesting. After all, most people would avoid such situations whenever they could, but they took the initiative to get involved.
"What did Old Doctor Xiao see?"
"Sir, this man is probably suffering from heart palpitations. Please step back." As he said this, Dr. Xiao took out a pill from the medicine box and stuffed it into the man's mouth.
"What are you doing?" the middle-aged woman who had spoken before suddenly asked.
"If you continue to make trouble unreasonably, this person may really die here." Dr. Xiao did not stop moving his hands, but his tone of voice was very bad.
"In that case, take all three of them back to the Yamen and let the Lord interrogate them in person. I'll see if they recruit them or not." One of the detectives waved his hand.
"Yes!" Several other detectives responded at the same time.
At this time, the face of the man lying on the ground slowly returned to normal. It seemed that Dr. Xiao's pill had worked.
"Fortunately, this man's palpitations are not serious yet, otherwise he would have died just because of the delay." Seeing that the man had recovered, Dr. Xiao stood up and put the medicine box on his shoulder again.
Shopkeeper Ning and the waiter couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief - fortunately, fortunately!
"Shopkeeper Ning, three girls, and Mr. Xiao, could you please come with us to the Yamen." The police officer looked at the four of them.
Rong Jingru nodded.
"This is natural." Shopkeeper Ning nodded.
The other three people also nodded in agreement.
The police officer stepped forward and helped the old man who had slowly woken up from the ground.
This scene happened to be seen by the four maids Chun Xia Qiu Dong and Cui Hong, but after hearing from people around them that his wife was going to testify, she no longer panicked.
They were just a little curious as to why their wife took the initiative to get involved in this muddy water. Qiu Mo took one look at her and then withdrew from the crowd.
…
Inside the Yamen, several people were standing in the lobby.
However, Rong Jingru had already seen the four people standing in the crowd at the county government office through her peripheral vision, and nodded slightly to them, telling them not to worry about her.
She didn't see Qiu Mo. Rong Jingru thought she was still looking for a shop, but she didn't know that she had already returned to the General's Mansion to inform Jun Linfeng about the matter.
At this time, the prefect had already walked out slowly in official uniform.
No matter how she looked at it, Rong Jingru felt that this man was a little different from the prefects she saw on TV in her previous life. She only felt that this man was more like a martial artist than a scholar.
When shopkeeper Ning and the three people finished talking to each other in the lobby, the prefect had roughly understood the whole story, but then the man who had fainted before suddenly spoke.
"Sir, Xiaomin has never known these three people, so I ask you to make the decision for Xiaomin."
"I said uncle, I am your niece. How dare you lie in front of adults and say you don't know us." The young woman said, and couldn't help but wink at the man.
This uncle never argued with women. Suddenly, his ears turned red when someone said this, but he still told the magistrate that he did not know these three people.
"Sir, sir, are you so sleepy that you don't even recognize your wife, son and niece?" The middle-aged woman made an affectionate appearance on the surface, with a hint of complaint in her voice.
"Yes, father! There must be something wrong with the pills that quack doctor gave you just now, otherwise you wouldn't even recognize us relatives." The young man said and took a few steps towards the uncle.
When the people watching outside saw this, some good-hearted people spoke ill of Dr. Xiao, "I didn't expect that Dr. Xiao, who is usually very skilled in medicine, would also diagnose the wrong pulse."
But there are still a few smart people who are not fooled by the three people's rhetoric, because Dr. Xiao's medical skills are indeed superb, especially his character is worthy of everyone's trust.
"Sir, I have checked this man's pulse before. The back of his head was not injured, so there is no possibility of amnesia." Seeing this, Dr. Xiao had no choice but to step forward and cup his hands.
"If you don't believe it, you can ask a few more doctors to come and take a look at him. I just gave him the pills, and there is still one left in the medicine box. You can also have them checked together." Old Doctor Xiao said.
, took out another pill from the medicine box.
The prefect also noticed that there might be something fishy about this matter, and he had other plans in his mind. He waved his hand to the yamen servants on the side, and one of the yamen servants took the order and left the yamen.
However, Rong Jingru admires the three of them very much. At this time, they can still look calm. If they had won Oscars in their previous lives.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a man's voice slowly coming from outside the hall, "Master Prefect, can this general hear the trial?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they realized that the voice just now was made by General Jun Linfeng of Zhenbei. They hurriedly retreated to both sides to make way for the incoming person.
But everyone was a little curious, why did General Zhenbei have time to come here today? Even Rong Jingru was a little shocked. She didn't expect that he would come because of her. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and Jun Linfeng couldn't help but smile.
Slightly raised.
Seeing this, the magistrate hurriedly stood up to greet him.
"Your Majesty, please see General Zhenbei!" the magistrate said, cupping his hands.
Although the magistrate looked respectful on his face, he was cursing in his heart: Why did this person come to him when he had nothing to do?
"You don't have to be polite, Mr. Fu. This general is just here to hear the trial."
"Come here, bring a chair to General Zhenbei." The magistrate didn't believe what Jun Linfeng said at all. After all, he had never been to the Yamen in person. Since he didn't want to tell, he didn't ask too many questions.
To see why he came.
It's just that because General Zhenbei usually has a bad reputation, when he appeared, both the hall and the hall suddenly became quiet.
Rong Jingru saw that the magistrate was still a little dazed, so she had to cough lightly, "You three said that this uncle is your family member, but I don't know his name, where he lives, and what he does for a living?"
Chapter completed!
