Chapter 165 - 165 A Murderous Intent
165 A Murderous Intent
Although that person didn’t dare to act arrogantly in front of Mo Ruyue because she really beat him up, he wasn’t afraid of Imperial Doctor Tian even if he was looking at him with an angry face.
“You all doubt her medical skills, but what’s the truth? Let’s see if I’m going to cover up for her or tell the truth.”
When Imperial Doctor Tian asked this question, the man was suddenly at a loss for words. He was tongue-tied and unable to speak.
This was the first time Imperial Doctor Tian showed a side that didn’t match his kind and benevolent side. He continued to aggressively pursue the matter, “you said that Madam Qin’s virtue is lacking. May I ask, when we doctors take a woman’s pulse, we also put our fingers on the wrist. Could it be that each and every one of us is also uncultured, rebellious, and shameless?”
“Elder Tian, you’re secretly changing the concept of this ridicule! After all, none of you have hired degenerates as private teachers for your children, and there even were rumors of them being caught in an affair, right?”
The man was almost unable to answer the questions and could only repeat what he had said before. However, it was obvious that he was already unable to resist the questions and had no strength to continue.
“This old man introduced Du Zhongheng to Lady Qin. Is this old man also a treasonous person, the same as Lady Qin and Du Zhongheng, the so-called same kind of person?”
Imperial Doctor Tian’s words once again shocked everyone other than Mo Ruyue. They had never thought that the one who introduced Du Zhongheng to Mo Ruyue was actually Imperial Doctor Tian?
But why?
If Lady Qin was a woman and didn’t know about the things in their circle of scholars, then Imperial Doctor Tian shouldn’t be unaware. He even introduced such a person to her, wasn’t this harming her?
Mo Ruyue wasn’t someone who would always hide behind others and wait for peace.
At this time, she also walked to Imperial Doctor Tian’s side and coldly stared at the man who was already stunned.
“Although Mr. Du is conservative and criticized among you for being a deviant, he has real talent. Why can’t you hire him as a teacher? Don’t tell me that whoever I want to hire has to be recognized by all the students in the world?”
“If it doesn’t go your way, then you’re the same kind of trash?”
“Also, regarding my mother-in-law’s matter, I already submitted a complaint more than a month ago, but for some reason, there has been no response. I really want to know when the time comes for us to go to court, would you dare to allow me to become the defendant and go to the county magistrate to distinguish right from wrong?”
When that person heard Mo Ruyue’s words, he immediately laughed.
“Hehe, everyone, listen to what she’s saying! A complaint was submitted more than a month ago? If you really did file a complaint, could it be that our Grand Old master would not accept it? You’re clearly in the wrong, but you’re still trying to cover it up by coming up with such a ridiculous excuse. Do you think we’re all fools?”
The rest of the people were already somewhat skeptical when they heard Imperial Doctor Tian’s words. After hearing the conversation between the two of them, they started to whisper to each other.
“For the sake of the people’s livelihood and peace, our eldest master has forgotten to eat and sleep every day. He would deal with public affairs every day until evening without stopping. If Lady Qin really submitted a complaint, how could it be ignored for more than a month?”
“Previously, Er Niu’s family next door lost a donkey and said that he saw it in the livestock market. At that time, he went to the government office to file a complaint. Our old master even personally went to the livestock market at that time. He really took the matter of us common people to heart.”
“Hey, do you still remember why Lady Qin was involved in the lawsuit last time? Could it be related to this?”
This sentence suddenly appeared among the many discussions, instantly making the people who were in full swing speechless.
Although some people were unwilling to believe it, who could say that it was impossible?
After all, it was the county magistrate himself and his wife who fought a lawsuit with Lady Qin last time!
It was just that even if there were such doubts, no one dared to say it out loud. Even those who had said it before realized that they had made a mistake and quickly covered their mouths, their intestines turning green with regret.
Why was he the only one who spoke quickly and said whatever he thought? Wasn’t he just looking for trouble?
Mo Ruyue already knew that her words would attract criticism, but she was not afraid at all.
When she had submitted her complaint, she knew that the magistrate would make things difficult for her. As expected, her complaint was like a stone sinking into the sea, without any response.
She was also busy with Huichun Hall and the children’s studies, so she didn’t have time to deal with it. Later, with the preparation for the operation, she had no time to care about this matter, so the matter was put on hold.
Now it seemed that someone was deliberately trying to use this to cause trouble and make an issue of her innocence.
Previously, he had wanted to label her as a quack who treated human lives like grass, but she had slapped him in the face with the facts. After a few days of peace, she had come back again.
This time, he was even more vicious, directly targeting her reputation.
Adultery!
This crime was not tolerated even in the civilized and open society of her previous life, let alone in the present era where feudal etiquette was prevalent.
He clearly wanted her dead!
Mo Ruyue sneered, and killing intent also rose in her heart.
It happened again. Even a man made of mud would be angry, not to mention that she was a top-tier assassin who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Did she really think that after she was reborn, she would not dare to see blood on her hands?
However, Mo Ruyue didn’t intend to find the real mastermind behind the scenes to settle the score now. She had to first find her innocence in an upright manner, and then talk about seeking justice in private.
Since some people only remembered to eat but not to be beaten, she would let him know what kind of price he had to pay for offending her, Mo Ruyue.
“Everyone, if I, Mo Ruyue, do anything that can’t be seen, I will be struck by lightning and die a terrible death! I don’t care if you believe it or not, I’ve already submitted the accusation. I didn’t have time to think about why there was no reply before, but now I’m going to find out the truth!”
She took a step forward, and the man who had been sitting on the ground subconsciously crawled back twice, trying to put some distance between them.
“What are you afraid of? If you didn’t have a cheap mouth, I naturally wouldn’t have made a move on you. If you dirtied my hands, where would I go to reason with you?”
Mo Ruyue’s words were full of contempt. Although the man wanted to talk back, when he saw her move her wrists and clench her hands, her knuckles made a “crack” sound, he was immediately scared.
“If you are still a man, then report your name. Since there was no response to the previous charges, I will continue to submit them. This time, you are also one of the accused. I will ask you again, do you dare to go against me in court?”
She stared into the man’s eyes, not hiding the killing intent in her eyes at all.
It was also telling him clearly that since he, the pawn, had jumped out, she would not be polite!
