Chapter 511 He is the one who plotted against me
Hu Yu Niang's romantic affairs were well known in the town, and Da Bao found out everything without any effort.
He did not dare to delay any longer and rushed to Anyang Prison early the next morning.
The jailer at the gate had learned his lesson this time. When he saw the silver that Dabao handed over, he let him in without thinking.
"Sister Qingqing, I have already found out that Hu Yu Niang is extremely frivolous. She often flirts with strange men and flirts with them. Because of this, her husband was almost pissed off to death.
Since her husband died, she has lost all restraint and spends her days hanging out with those idle street urchins, doing things that are not proper for her.
However, in the past two years, she has suddenly changed her personality and no longer associates with those second-rate guys. Instead, she is wholeheartedly hooking up with the owner of Huichuntang.
As for Xiaowu, the neighbors didn’t see him very often. They only saw him a few days before the accident…”
Chen Dabao told Chen Qingqing the news he had heard truthfully.
Hearing this, Chen Qingqing couldn't help but frowned, "Have you checked carefully, is there anyone else?"
"No, Hu Yu Niang and those street urchins were just a novelty for a few days. Plus, there were so many people that it was impossible to find out their names. Only Miao Hong from Huichun Hall had been friends with Hu Yu Niang the longest, and it was also known to the neighbors."
"Miao Hong..." Chen Qingqing's eyes became deep and deep, and she murmured, "Could it be that he is really plotting against me?"
Chen Dabao also frowned, "Sister Qingqing, I've also inquired about Miao Hong. Although he's greedy for personal gain and has no medical ethics, he's also very timid. I don't think he would do something like this to frame someone."
Chen Qingqing couldn't help but frown. Those street urchins had no grudge against her and would not harm her.
As for Miao Hong, he questioned her medical skills time and again, and each time he was aggressive, trying to ruin her reputation.
Considering what Xiaowu said, she was sure that it was Miao Hong who was behind this.
"Dabao, you are still too kind. There is a saying that goes, the sky can be measured, the earth can be measured, but the human heart is unpredictable. The human heart is treacherous and sometimes unexpected.
I have heard about Miao Hong's character for a long time. He not only values money but is also extremely narrow-minded.
Since the opening of Jishitang, I have won the hearts of the people with my superb medical skills and reasonable prices, and my business is booming.
This would certainly affect Miao Hong's interests and cut off his financial resources for harming the people. How could he not be jealous?
This made him feel resentful and he came up with this sinister and vicious plan.
He had Hu Yu Niang seduce Xiao Wu, and then had Xiao Wu steal medicine from the clinic. He tampered with the situation and used it to frame me."
"According to what you said, Miao Hong is too cruel and vicious. Hu Yu Niang helped him, but he actually poisoned Hu Yu Niang to death. It's unbelievable." Dabao was a little bit unbelievable.
Chen Qingqing chuckled, "If I'm not mistaken, Miao Hong had no intention of killing Hu Yuniang. He should have asked Hu Yuniang to return the potions to Xiaowu, but Hu Yuniang didn't listen to him and accidentally ingested the potions without knowing it, resulting in her death from poisoning."
Hearing this, Dabao suddenly realized, "Sister Qingqing, you are amazing. With this analysis, the truth is revealed. It's even more powerful than the county magistrate's trial. I will go to the county government office now and beat the drum to protest and arrest Miao Hong, who framed me."
"Don't be impatient, this matter is not as simple as you think."
"What do you mean? Your analysis just now was very logical. As long as we provide this clue to the county magistrate, I believe he will judge the case impartially." Dabao wanted to clear Chen Qingqing's charges quickly and leave here as soon as possible.
Chen Qingqing looked solemn and expressed his guess.
"Dabao, since we can investigate all these things, it should be even easier for the county magistrate. But he has no intention of investigating the case at all. Instead, he believes that my medicine poisoned Hu Yu Niang. Why did he do this?"
"There's only one possibility: Miao Hong bribed Qin Shousheng. No wonder I gave him a generous gift, but he turned me away. It turns out they've been colluding for a long time." Dabao felt his scalp tingling and a chill run down his back. "If that's the case, this case is going to be very troublesome."
"Don't worry, Miao Hong probably doesn't have that much nerve." Chen Qingqing shook her head and denied Dabao's idea. "Qin Shousheng is greedy and it's impossible for him to be bribed by Miao Hong, unless there is some kind of interest relationship between them."
"Interest relationship? Does he want to seize our property?" Dabao's face turned pale. "We are just a family of merchants, without any backers. If Qin Shousheng sets his sights on us..."
"Dabao, don't let your imagination run wild. Go check Miao Hong's background and see if he has any connection with Qin Shousheng. If not, then it means Qin Shousheng is a corrupt official, and I can clear Jishitang of his guilt. Otherwise, let's not bother with it. It must be that Qin Shousheng who covets our business and wants to take over this opportunity."
Chen Qingqing has learned a lot of negative information about Qin Shousheng from the jailer these days.
This man had been an official for many years and had used his power to plunder the people's wealth. All the merchants doing business in Anyang would give him gifts.
If you don't take the initiative to give money, they will find various excuses to close down your shop and accuse you of a crime and throw you into jail.
I suffered this injustice for no reason. It must be because I didn't understand the dark side of this place that I ended up like this.
Chen Dabao was terrified. No wonder Chen Qingqing asked him to hide the valuables at home. It turned out that she had thought of this outcome a long time ago.
His expression immediately became nervous. "Sister Qingqing, we absolutely cannot sit and wait for death. I will set off for Kyoto tomorrow to file a complaint with the emperor, accusing Qin Shousheng of taking human life lightly. I don't believe there will be no place for him to seek justice."
Chen Qingqing shook her head solemnly. "Since ancient times, it has been as difficult for citizens to sue officials as it is to go to heaven. According to Daqing law, anyone who files a lawsuit will be punished with forty strokes of the cane and sent back to their hometown, regardless of whether they have a valid reason. In the end, it will only lead to a mess. It won't solve the problem, and it will also implicate others."
"What should I do? I can't just stand by and watch you get wronged!"
"Don't worry, as long as I want to leave, this place can't hold me back."
Hearing Chen Qingqing say this, Dabao was not surprised at all. In his heart, Chen Qingqing was a god-like existence, and anything she said would come true.
"Sister Qingqing, then you should leave here immediately. I will arrange for someone to take you out of the city immediately."
