Chapter 438: Kyoto Legend Liu Ruxin (Part )
The man who had always been singled out for praise came over and said, "Confirmed? So, you mean, the eldest master has no evidence at all?"
The commoner heard this and couldn't help but admire, "Brother, what's your name? I've always said you're smart! You're really sharp!"
The man chuckled and said, "No matter how polite your surname is, I'm called Sandao. I'm very polite!"
"Brother Hu, would you consider becoming a constable? With you here, there will be absolutely no wrongful convictions in Kyoto! Because you're so smart!"
Hu Sandao was flattered by the flattery.
The cloth-clothed man continued, "This Master Zheng, without any solid evidence, convicted Mr. Liu based solely on speculation. He even brought people to the prison in the dead of night to interrogate and threaten Mr. Liu, forcing him to hand over the antidote!"
At this point, he suddenly ran out of words. The person next to him was so anxious that he asked, "And then? And then?"
"Yeah, and then what? Why didn't you say anything about the climax? It really frustrates me!!"
The cloth-clothed man smiled awkwardly, a bit embarrassed on his face, "I don't know what happened next."
"what!!"
“Tsk!!”
There was a burst of boos, expressing some disappointment and regret.
I thought there would be a bigger show, but in the end, it was gone!
It's really frustrating.
Seeing this, the man in plain clothes said with a stiff upper lip, "There's something else that I'm sure you'll be interested in!"
Hu Sandao smelled something and asked quickly, "What's the matter? Is it about Mr. Liu?"
The commoner gave a thumbs-up. "Brother Hu is truly the most righteous man alive! Absolutely amazing!"
"Do you know who was the prisoner who burned to death in the fire at the Dali Temple prison last night?"
Hu Sandao's face turned pale when he heard this, "Could it be Mr. Liu?!"
"boom!"
The man in plain clothes slammed the table hard. The sudden noise scared everyone so much that their hearts trembled and half of their souls and spirits were gone!
When someone patted his chest and looked at him fiercely, he quickly apologized, "Sorry, I lost control! Brother Hu is really too smart! I have never seen such a smart person in the world! I couldn't control myself for a moment, please forgive me!"
Hu Sandao was too lazy to listen to any praise. He just felt indignant in his heart, "Mr. Liu was burned to death like this?"
"Could it be that Master Zheng, angry and humiliated because he didn't get the antidote, killed someone? Did he burn the body just to hide the evidence?"
Everyone's faces changed and they all shut their mouths.
This guy is really bold!
Setting fire to the Dali Temple prison was a serious crime punishable by confiscation of property and extermination of the clan! How could he have pinned it on Young Master Zheng so easily?
If the Zheng family knew about this, I'm afraid this guy would have no way to survive, right?
Hu Sandao was unaware of other people's concerns and only felt unfair and wronged for Liu Ruxin.
"He was a conscientious doctor who truly served the people! How could he die under the persecution of the Zheng family?"
"Hush! Brother, don't say such things, or someone might spread the news to the Zheng family!"
Hu Sandao slammed the table, full of heroic spirit, and shouted, "You are afraid of the Zheng family, but I am not!"
"Those bastards from the Zheng family, relying on the reputation of the Duke's Mansion and the Prince of Jin, bully men and women outside and do all kinds of evil things! If they didn't have a big tree behind them to lean on, how dare they be so arrogant?"
"But we are human beings too, and we need to survive! Just because they are dissatisfied, they kill a good doctor who benefits the country and the people? Just because Mr. Liu has no backing, he should be trampled upon by them like this?"
"I just don't believe it. Those people who have received the favor of the Precious Medicine Pavilion can tolerate such a thing happening?"
The man in plain clothes heard something unusual in these words, "Brother Hu, what do you want to do?"
Hu Sandao stood up, his face full of determination, "I will fight against the Zheng family for Mr. Liu!"
"boom!"
In one sentence, it was like a bolt of lightning that struck everyone's head. Besides shock, they were filled with disbelief.
"Brother Hu, are you serious? Aren't you afraid? The Zheng family is not to be trifled with!"
"Yeah, Brother Hu, we can just listen to these things on our own. Do we really have to confront the nobles? We don't have such strong fists!"
Everyone was talking at once, worried and admonishing him, fearing that this passionate young man would die tragically at the hands of the powerful.
But Hu Sandao disagreed.
"I'm not afraid! If I die, it will only prove that the Zheng family is up to something!"
"I won't ask you to do anything for me then. I just hope that everyone will spread the word about my death, so that the entire Apocalypse will know about the Zheng family's tyranny and the darkness beneath this powerful aristocracy!"
Everyone was silent, feeling that Hu Sandao's words were inexplicably heavy and sad.
"To be honest, my father is a butcher. He's never been to school and doesn't understand justice. He only knows how to make money to support my education. And my father paid for my education so that I could learn etiquette and know right from wrong!"
"Now that you know what is right and wrong, you should defend the correct principles of right and wrong! Otherwise, wouldn't all my years of studying be in vain? Wouldn't all my father's hard-earned money be wasted?"
Among the crowd, some looked embarrassed, some felt ashamed, and some retreated out of guilt, but there were also some who were so excited by what he said that they chose to join him.
Someone stepped forward and said, "Brother Hu is right. My family has received favors from Mr. Liu! My mother had a difficult birth, and it was Mr. Liu who saved her! I want to plead for her and repay her for saving my life!"
"I've also received favors from the Precious Medicine Pavilion!" Another middle-aged man stepped forward. "Two months ago, I developed a serious leg disease. I saw countless doctors, but they all said it couldn't be cured and I could only wait to be paralyzed in bed. Then it was Mr. Liu who cured me!"
"Not only that, she knew my family was poor, so from the consultation, to the prescription, to the treatment, and even the final checkup, she only charged me a penny!"
"Such a kindhearted woman is clearly a goddess who has descended to earth! I will also seek justice for her from the Zheng family!"
"Me too……"
"I'm willing to join too!"
……
Suddenly, this restaurant, which often served ordinary people, became bustling with people. Many people joined in from outside, all to plead for Doctor Liu.
The restaurant owner stood behind the counter, his blood boiling in his heart.
How long has it been since the people of Kyoto were so united over one thing?
The last time was when Prince Dongli was falsely accused of murdering the second prince and was exiled by the emperor, right?
At that time, countless passionate young people in Kyoto gathered in front of the palace to petition, just to ask the emperor to thoroughly investigate the death of the second prince.
Unfortunately, the emperor did not hear their petition, and King Dongli was still exiled, and those passionate young people were beaten back by the imperial guards.
Unexpectedly, besides King Dongli, there is someone in this world who can make the people of Kyoto so united and excited!
It seems that Liu Ruxin, who has appeared in Kyoto for less than half a year, will become the new generation of legend in Kyoto!
