Chapter 933 Fake Medicine
Zhou Ran also followed, and everyone arrived at the main palace of the Border City. This was the place where disputes were handled in the Border City. There were many people talking, and as soon as Lin Xuan came in, there was a lot of discussion.
"Isn't that the young master of the Lin family? He also committed a crime?"
"I don't know what happened. Isn't the Lin family's business fair?"
"I didn't expect that the merchant family would also encounter lawsuits in the border town!"
The harsh discussion made Lin Xuan very unhappy. He did business in the border town according to rules and had never committed any crime. How could he be taken to the city lord's palace today?
Lin Xuan was brought to the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion in full view of everyone.
The lord of the border city, Du Wenbian, sat high up, glanced at Lin Xuan, and asked: "Are you Lin Xuan? The son of the Lin family in the outer region?"
"Yes."
Lin Xuan nodded, not daring to hide anything.
Du Wenbian said again: "Someone accused you of selling counterfeit medicine. Is this relevant?"
Lin Xuan was startled and said hurriedly: "Lord City Lord, I am not selling fake medicine! Although the Lin family comes from outside the country, they still abide by their duties as businessmen. You get what you pay for, and they will never sell inferior products!"
"Really? But I have witnesses here!"
Du Wenbian waved, and a man also came to the lobby.
When Lin Xuan saw this person, he became furious.
This person was none other than Heiyu from Heilu. When he was in Luosheng City, Heiyu went back on his word and sold the customs clearance documents to others, so he was taught a lesson by Zhou Ran.
I didn't see him like this, but I didn't expect to see him again in the border town.
When Hei Yu saw Du Wenbian, he immediately saluted and said, "Lord City Lord, I can testify that there are indeed fake medicines among the goods sold by Lin Xuan. This is the evidence!"
With that said, Hei Yu handed a medicine bottle into Du Wenbian's hand.
Du Wenbian put the medicine bottle under his nostril and smelled it carefully.
"This Spirit Gathering Pill is indeed fake. Low-level pills like this are usually prepared for people who have just started to practice. Once the properties of the medicine are different, the beginning practitioners will lose all their efforts! Therefore, selling such fake pills Those who take medicine are more hateful than those who sell high-grade fake medicines!”
Du Wenbian said every word, like a needle piercing Lin Xuan's heart.
If you don't defend yourself at this time, I'm afraid the charges will be confirmed.
Lin Xuan said loudly: "Lord City Lord, this medicine bottle is indeed a medicine bottle sold by the Lin family, but the medicine inside is not the Lin family's medicine. I can tell just by smelling it with my nose. The medicine inside must have been hacked. Lost the bag!"
Hei Yu sneered and said, "Lin Xuan, you said that I slipped the medicine inside, do you have any evidence?"
"No." Lin Xuan said helplessly, "But you said that I sell fake medicines. Just using a medicine bottle to prove it is not enough!"
"Since our evidence is not sufficient, the city lord can only decide who is right and who is wrong, don't you think?" Hei Yu had a strange look on his face.
Lin Xuan choked immediately.
When deciding a case in a border city, if it cannot be decided, it will naturally be decided by the city lord Du Wen and Bian Ganggang.
But the so-called arbitrariness of Qian Gang is not fair.
If there is a dispute between people from the inner and outer lands, the city lord will definitely lean towards the people from the inner lands. After all, the people from the inner lands are protected, while the people from the outer lands are dispensable.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh. It seemed that this time, he couldn't stay in the inner realm.
Du Wenbian cleared his throat and said: "Since the evidence on both sides is insufficient, let me make the decision! Lin Xuan, you are selling counterfeit medicines and your crime is unforgivable. From today on..."
Before he finished speaking, a man stood in front of Lin Xuan,
This person is none other than Zhou Ran.
"Lord of the Border City, I have evidence!"
"Do you have evidence?"
Du Wenbian was stunned. Lin Xuan's companion, who never said a word from the beginning, suddenly said that he had evidence, which was confusing.
"Master Qingfeng, how do you have any evidence?"
Lin Xuan whispered softly that he was unlucky, but he didn't want to drag Zhou Ran into trouble.
Zhou Ran smiled slightly, handed his scenery card into Du Wenbian's hand, and said, "How about it? Is the evidence sufficient?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hei Yu recognized Zhou Ran.
"It's you! I asked you, why do you look so familiar?" He had been taught a lesson by Zhou Ran. As a member of the Heilu, how could Heiyu endure it? He looked straight at Du Wenbian, "Lord City Lord, this person is Lin Xuan's accomplice, and they sell counterfeit medicine together! This time, we must drive them out of the inner domain!"
Hei Yuman thought that Du Wenbian would drive Zhou Ran and Lin Xuan away together, but after Du Wenbian saw Zhou Ran's scenery card, he was completely confused.
Du Wenbian stood up tremblingly and walked to Zhou Ran.
Hei Yu refused to give up and said: "Lord City Lord, these two sellers of counterfeit medicine, drive them out quickly!"
Du Wenbian glared at Hei Yu fiercely. This guy was talking nonsense, how could he tolerate him?
"presumptuous!"
Du Wenbian roared angrily and slapped Hei Yu on the face.
Half of Heiyu's face suddenly swelled up, and he was completely confused. He said timidly: "Lord City Lord, why did you hit me?"
Du Wenbian stopped talking nonsense with Hei Yu and immediately knelt in front of Zhou Ran.
"See the Champion!"
As soon as these words came out, the entire lobby fell silent.
Lin Xuan, who sells counterfeit medicine, his companion is actually the high-ranking champion, the hero who single-handedly resisted the Qing army.
Jingguo was able to avoid the war, and the champion Hou was indispensable.
Such a big shot actually appeared in a small border town.
The Lord of the City knelt down, and the others also knelt down in front of Zhou Ran.
Lin Xuan was also surprised. How could his companion Zhou Ran, who passed the blood test and entered the inner domain, suddenly become the champion of Jing State?
Hei Yu looked ashen. He didn't expect that the person who taught him a lesson that day was actually a big shot of Jing State. This time, he had tricked Lin Xuan and finally kicked a foot on the iron plate.
Zhou Ran glanced at the people around him and said, "Lord of Border City, is my evidence sufficient? Did my friend sell fake medicine?"
"Sufficient! Very sufficient!" Du Wen nodded and bowed, "This is all Hei Yu's fault! It seems that Hei Lu should also be rectified!" As he said, Du Wen looked at Hei Yu again, "Hei Yu, from now on, you are not allowed to step into Border City. If you disobey this order, you will be killed without mercy!"
"But..."
Hei Yu wanted to argue. He had so many businesses in Border City. If he couldn't enter Border City, he was afraid that he would be expelled from Hei Lu.
However, in Ducheng, the orders of the Lord of the City are absolute.
Since Du Wenbian has already driven him away, he must not return. .
Hei Yu had no choice but to leave the City Lord's Mansion with his head down.
Du Wenbian and the others dared to stand up, facing Zhou Ran, the Champion Marquis, and everyone was in awe.
