"Wow! The Fairy Doctor is indeed amazing! "
"Why do I feel that this person is here to cause trouble?"
"This person looks familiar. I think I've seen him somewhere before!"
The middle-aged man's ignorance was publicly slapped in the face by Hu. The commoners discussed animatedly while the middle-aged man's face turned green and white. He was about to fly into a rage out of humiliation!
Constable Sun, who was guarding the door, seemed to have thought of something. His expression changed as he instructed his subordinates. Then, he quickly walked to County Magistrate He and whispered a few words into his ear. County Magistrate He was startled. Then, his eyes spat fire as he scolded in a low voice, "Bastard! Why didn't you say so earlier? "
Just as Constable Sun was about to open his mouth to explain, he heard Hu say something earth-shattering, shocking everyone in the courtyard. "Also, this big brother, your wife is only asleep. Why did you say that she's sick?"
"Asleep?"
These three words were no different from a deep-water bomb that blew up the tranquil courtyard of the yamen!
"What does the Fairy Doctor mean? What does she mean by asleep? "
"Could it be that this woman isn't sick at all? Is this man here to cheat the medicine? "
"But this woman's face is red and there are beads of sweat on her forehead. It's obvious that she has a fever!"
The commoners were dumbfounded as they discussed animatedly.
"Nonsense! You bunch of quacks. I'm going to Chang 'an to get medicine for my wife! A bunch of quacks … "
The man's expression changed greatly as he roared angrily. Then, he carried the woman in his arms and turned to rush out of the yamen.
"Hmph! Men! Capture this person for this official!! "
County Magistrate He's face was covered with frost as he ordered hatefully.
"Yes!"
There were already many people in the courtyard and there were four or five yamen runners at the door. In such a short time, the man was still carrying the woman in his arms and could not rush out no matter what.
Under the watchful eyes of the yamen runners, the middle-aged man was caught before he could escape.
"Let me go! My lord, don't believe this girl. She's slandering me! My wife really has a fever ah! Let me go quickly! I still have to save my wife! "
The man was still unwilling to give up and tried to gain the sympathy of the public by pretending to be pitiful.
But at this time, the wife he was talking about had been pulled away. Hu actually supported the woman to lean against the chair. Taking this opportunity, she took the woman's pulse. Seeing this, the middle-aged man's face turned pale with a whoosh!
"Let go! You damned girl, quickly let go of my wife! Murder! You're treating human lives like grass! "
The middle-aged man tried his best to break free from the yamen runner's hold, but how could his small body fight against these burly yamen runners? Thus, he could only act shamelessly like a woman!
"Alright! This big brother, I'm not treating human life like grass. Earlier, I saw that your wife's chest was rising and falling very regularly, which proved that her breathing was very even. She didn't seem to be suffering from a fever at all, so I guessed that your wife wasn't sick at all! Just now, I took your wife's pulse and found that her pulse is stable and her body is very good! He just took some knockout pills! "
At this moment, Hu actually walked over with a cold look in his eyes as he spoke to the man who had been pinned down by the bailiffs.
"Knockout pills ~?"
Everyone was stunned again. County Magistrate He couldn't hold it in anymore and shouted, "Guo Ziming, how dare you! You actually swindled your way to the county yamen. You're looking down on me! "
"Guo Ziming? Is that the Scholar Guo who drinks and gambles every day and eventually lost all his ancestral wealth? "
"Ha! If County Magistrate didn't remind me, I wouldn't have known. Now that he reminded me, you don't say, this person looks quite like Guo Ziming! "
"What do you mean by look like? They're obviously the same person!"
"But why would this guy want to drug his wife and trick Divine Doctor Sun?"
"Sigh! What else could it be? Isn't it because he wants to swindle a few sets of herbs to treat fever from Doctor Sun? If he takes them out and sells them, he can at least earn a few hundred copper coins! "
"Hiss ~! This son of a b * tch is really a bastard! How could he do such a wicked thing? If Old Master Guo's spirit is in heaven, wouldn't he be angered to death? "
"That's right! Doctor Sun was kind enough to treat us for free, and this son of a b * tch actually did such a despicable thing! If my son is as useless as this Scholar Guo, I'll beat him to death! "
"Sigh! That young lady is also a pitiful person. She hasn't even enjoyed a few days of happiness after marrying into the Guo family, and the Guo family's wealth has been squandered away by this Guo Ziming! This Guo Ziming would beat her up every time he gets drunk! How pitiful! "
"Sigh! That's right! Now this young lady of the Guo family has been drugged by this bastard, and then brought here to swindle and embarrass herself. This Guo Ziming is really heartless! "
"Beat him to death! Beat this bastard to death! "
County Magistrate He only knew the true identity of this middle-aged man after Constable Sun's report. His scolding caused many of the commoners in the crowd to recognize Guo Ziming. After a series of discussions, Guo Ziming's "dark history" was instantly exposed. The commoners were even more enraged, and each of them wanted to rush up and beat Guo Ziming to death!
The atmosphere in the county office was a little tense. County Magistrate He saw the situation and quickly shouted, "Everyone, stop! Men, take this Guo Ziming to the prison and wait for trial! "
"Yes!"
The bailiffs lifted Guo Ziming from the ground and escorted him to the back door of the county office!
In fact, these bailiffs wanted to beat Guo Ziming up even more than the commoners, but they knew that even if they wanted to beat him up, they couldn't do it in front of so many commoners. Otherwise, if the commoners came over and beat him up, he would definitely be beaten to death. If that happened, they wouldn't be able to bear the consequences!
"Doctor Sun, I'm really sorry. I was careless and almost fell into this unruly commoner's trap!"
After Guo Ziming was taken away, County Magistrate He coughed twice and bowed apologetically to Sun Simiao.
"No worries! As long as you didn't waste the Nuan Tang Foundation's donation for no reason! "
Sun Simiao waved his hand and said.
Seeing that Sun Simiao didn't have any intention of blaming him, County Magistrate He sighed in relief and said, "I heard from Constable Sun that Guo Ziming was originally from a scholarly family. However, he later got addicted to alcohol and gambling. After his father passed away, he became even more uncontrollable and quickly squandered away all the family's wealth! Who knew that after squandering away all the family's wealth, he still didn't know how to restrain himself. Not only did he look for people to borrow money, he even swindled people into the county office. This is really outrageous! "
Hu Meng glanced at the woman lying on the chair and sighed faintly, "It's just that I pity this sister. She was ruined by a man like Guo Ziming. County Magistrate, please help her more in the future!"
County Magistrate He smiled and said, "Haha! Of course, of course! However, there's one thing that I don't understand. Please enlighten me! "
Hu Meng raised her head and said, "County Magistrate, you want to ask why this madam's face is so red, right?"
County Magistrate He gave her a thumbs up and said, "Miss Hu is really smart. You got it so quickly!"
Actually, County Magistrate He wasn't the only one who wanted to know. Everyone else wanted to know too. As expected, everyone in the courtyard pricked up their ears. They wanted to know the truth of the matter.
Hu Meng pursed her lips and said, "Actually, it's not as complicated as you think, County Magistrate. This madam's face is just a little more rouge!"
"Rouge …"
"Pfft …"
County Magistrate He choked and almost vomited blood.
When the doctors and students from the Imperial Physician Department heard this, they were even more embarrassed. They had studied medicine for so many years, but they were almost fooled by Guo Ziming's little trick …
