“Thirdly,” Gu Yundong said faintly, “the waiter at Fulong Inn said that I was in contact with the beggars, but he didn’t see what I said to them. How can he conclude that I bribed them to do something bad?”
Gu Yundong had indeed bribed them, but she did not want them to set a fire. This would easily implicate others.
She had no grudges with anyone else, so there was no reason for her to harm them.
Therefore, she only asked those beggars to drag Yu Youwei out and break one of his hands. She wanted to see how he could treat people and kill them without a hand. Moreover, she asked them to attack today. After all, she had already left when she thought of her.
Who knew that there was someone who hated Yu Youwei more than her? They even burned down the entire medical center.
“Everyone knows that my mother is sick. Imperial Physician Song said that he still needs a medicine to completely heal my mother. It’s just that the medicine is not easy to find. He needs time. My heart aches for my mother, so I naturally pray for that medicine to be found as soon as possible every day. Therefore, when I saw that there were beggars in the city, I suddenly thought that if I did more good deeds, I could accumulate some good karma for my mother and let her recover as soon as possible. It’s just my filial piety. I didn’t expect him to say that I set fire to kill people.”
The onlookers sighed when they heard that. “That’s right. This girl is so filial. It’s not easy.”
“That’s right. If she wants to treat her mother, why would she set a fire to reduce her fortune?”
“This quack is always thinking about how to harm people. He doesn’t even let a little girl off.”
“Isn’t that so? Just because she hit him a few times in anger, tell me, how much strength can a young lady use to hit him? He actually wants to send her to jail. He’s not human, he’s a beast.”
Yu Youwei was furious. This brat was very strong. She had kicked him to the ground easily.
He looked at the other people in the court. The advisor was putting down his pen and rubbing his sore wrist.
Yu Youwei felt that this guy was being biased. Why didn’t he stop this brat from saying so much?
If the private advisor had known, he would have scolded him. How could his messy and unpleasant words compare to the organized and exciting speech?
Gu Yundong was very calm. She did not even glance at Youwei. She said to the private advisor, “I’m done.”
The private advisor nodded. “Yes, what you said makes a lot more sense than him.”
Yu Youwei was shocked. “Sir, she’s just quibbling.”
“No noise in court.”
After saying that, the private advisor presented his record to the prefecture magistrate.
The prefecture magistrate didn’t say anything after reading it. He just nodded to show that he understood.
The private advisor returned to his seat and said, “Since both sides are only making claims and there’s no evidence, we can’t confirm the case. We’ll investigate this matter after we find the beggars at the entrance of the inn.”
Gu Yundong frowned. She still had to go to the Gu village.
At this moment, there was a commotion at the door.
The cold-faced constable went out to take a look and returned quickly. “Sir, there’s someone outside who wants to complain.”
“Don’t they know there’s a case going on here?”
The constable said, “The visitors claim that they’re here for this case.”
“Eh?” This time, everyone was stunned.
Yu Youwei’s face flashed with ecstasy. “It must be those beggars who came to testify.”
Gu Yundong glanced at him. Look at how happy he was.
Soon, two people came in..
