Chapter 275 276 Antecedents

Zhou Jia took Mr. Qian and two clerks to the county office to check the tax and various files of Lingxian County. When Mr. Qian looked through a file named Qi Shilian, he found that a man named Zhao Cheng had complained to Qi Shilian. Qi Shilian of the medical center misdiagnosed and killed his old mother. Qi Shilian refused to recognize her death and was imprisoned. Before the case was investigated, Qi Shilian died of illness in prison, and the case was over.

There is also a file that records that after Qi Shilian died in prison, his son Qi Zhanpeng sued Zhao Cheng for a false accusation, and for some unknown reason, the two cases were not closed.

Mr. Qian felt a little strange, and took the file to Zhou Jia, "Lord, you see, these two cases are caused by the same person, but neither case has been closed. I remember the one that the old man mentioned today, which is written as The young man born is also called Qi Zhanpeng, will it be the same person?"

After Zhou Jia took it, he thought: Qi Shilian died of an illness soon after he was imprisoned. Qi Zhanpeng countered Zhao Cheng's false accusation and then let it go. Then Qi's pharmacy became the property of Shengshoutang, and Shengshoutang is now in Lingxian County. A single family, will there be any tricks in it?

Zhou Jia said to Zhaocai: "You take a few people to investigate secretly. What happened when Zhao Cheng told Qi Shilian that he misdiagnosed and hurt people?"

Zhaocai took the people away, Zhou Jia and Mr. Qian watched for a while, and the county magistrate Yang came forward with a smile, bowed and saluted: "Sir, the lower official has prepared the wine and dishes, and I will wash the dust for you."

Zhou Jia smiled politely: "If you have Mr. Yang, let's go!"

Magistrate Yang led Zhou Jia and several people to Houya, and officials from Leng County, big and small, came forward to see the ceremony. The dancers come here to show everyone, and dance a few twists to relieve fatigue."

Zhou Jia nodded in agreement with the tea cup in hand, Magistrate Yang clapped his hands, and the sound of the playing sounded. The two looked alike. The enchanting and charming dancer appeared in front of the hall and danced gracefully. The moving dance poses, using a tea cup to block his sight, sneaking a glance at Lord Zhou sitting at the top, seeing that he also admired Shuang Shu's dance pose with a good look, he turned his head to look at Shuang Shu and smiled complacently.

Zhou Jia glanced at Yang Xian and thought: Put your mind on doing these things in the right way and do your duty well. It seems that it is really difficult to keep your duty. No wonder Yuer likes to use his duty. People, although they don't have much knowledge, don't make trouble on their own. well! I don't know how Yu'er and his son are at home. When he came out, he said that he would go back in half a month. It was almost a month before he arrived in Leng County. No, I have to speed up the investigation of Lingxian County and go back to accompany my daughter-in-law and son.

Zhou Jia couldn't bear to watch the two dancers scratch their heads and pose, stood up and cupped hands towards Yang Xian: "Master Yang, you guys continue, I still have some files that I haven't read yet, so just go ahead."

Yang County magistrate was dumbfounded and thought: How can there be such a person? He looks so gentle and beautiful, but he is so straightforward, how did he sit in the position of the prefect?

After Zhou Jia finished speaking, he threw down the officials of Lingxian County and strode away. Mr. Qian and the two scribes also bowed their hands to the Yang County magistrate, and followed Zhou Jia to read the dossier.

Qi Zhanpeng arrived at the yard rented by Mr. Wen, knocked on the door, Tie Zhu opened the door and saw Qi Zhanpeng stunned for a moment, and said angrily, "What are you doing here? Don't you not associate with officials who are officials?"

Qi Zhanpeng saluted in shame: "I'm sorry, I'm narrow-minded."

Tie Zhu didn't say more when he saw his apology, stepped aside, looked at him and said, "Come in!"

Qi Zhanpeng cupped his hands at Tie Zhu and entered the yard. Seeing him, Mr. Wen asked gently, "Xiao Qi, is your mother better?"

"Thank you Doctor Wen, my mother fell asleep after drinking the medicine." Qi Zhanpeng saluted.

Mr. Wen pointed to the chair in the courtyard and smiled at him: "Sit for a while and wait for me to dry the medicine."

"Doctor Wen, I'll help you." Qi Zhanpeng walked over and took the dustpan from Mr. Wen's hand and helped him dry it. Qi Zhanpeng looked at the herbs in his hand, remembering the scene of drying the herbs when his father was alive, his eyes were red and tears almost fell.

Seeing his sadness, Mr. Wen thought he was worried about his mother's condition, so he comforted him: "Xiao Qi, don't worry too much about your mother, after your mother drinks the three medicines, she will be able to stop coughing and sleep well, and then I will give her to her. Re-prescribe two patches of medicine for conditioning, and it will be fine."

Qi Zhanpeng listened to Mr. Wen's voice, showing a sincere concern, and felt warm in his heart, feeling that it would not be so difficult to say what was in his heart, "Doctor Wen, ask me in a sarcastic manner, where is your family? What did an adult come to Ling County for?"

Mr. Wen said with a smile: "He probably came to check the warehouse grains, the taxes under his jurisdiction, and inspect the traitors."

"Inspecting the traitor," Qi Zhanpeng showed a glimmer of hope in his eyes, knelt down at Mr. Wen with a 'bang', and kowtowed: "Doctor Wen, I want to meet the adult in your family and complain to him about my family's grievances. ."

No wonder the boy looked gloomy. Mr. Wen stepped forward and helped him up with pity, "Little Qi, get up, he went to the county office, and he may not be back until later. You sit down with me and wait for a while."

Qi Zhanpeng sat on the bamboo chair with Mr. Wen, looked at Dr. Wen's kind smile, and recalled: "Doctor Wen, my father was also a doctor during his lifetime, and he learned the medical skills of the Qi family's ancestors. I am the only son of my family's three generations. There is a hospital, a pharmacy, a house, and dozens of acres of ancestral farmland. My father and mother lived happily. My father thought it was hard to practice medicine. The next time I took the local exam, I failed one after another. In the same year, I laughed at me privately. I was too young, but it may not be good. After I found out, I was bored in my heart. It's not too late to take the exam when I'm older. The husband also said, what is a 16-year-old boy, some people are still a boy at the age of 40 or 50, and they are still taking the test. .

The next year, during the spring equinox, there was a disaster. A man named Zhao Cheng sued my father at the yamen, saying that my father misdiagnosed and killed his mother. My father argued that Zhao Cheng’s mother was out of breath when she came to see the doctor. When she was dying, Zhao Cheng knelt down and begged to save her mother's life. He explained to Zhao Cheng at the time that her mother was running out of oil and the lamp was dry, and she was just doing her job and obeying the destiny of taking medicine and eating.

Zhao Cheng said that her mother had suffered all her life, and she had to grab a few medicines to try.

My father grabbed a piece of Taiping medicine for him and made it clear to him again and again that his mother was terminally ill. This medicine did not help his mother's condition, it was just his wish, and Zhao Cheng also said that he understood , After taking the medicine, my father sent away their mother and son.

Who knew that a few days later, he brought my father to court, and the yamen arrested my father. My mother spent a lot of money to manage it, but it was useless. My father refused to admit that he misdiagnosed and killed Zhao Cheng's mother. , After my father was arrested, my mother and I didn't even meet my father, and died in prison. "

Mr. Wen was also very angry after hearing this. If this is true, then Zhao Cheng made it clear that he deliberately corrupted the Qi family. What did the county magistrate eat? Even such a case with clear facts will drag people to death in prison?
