"Doctor, may I ask your surname and which pharmacy you work for?"

The doctor was taken aback. He was no doctor at all; he was just taking advantage of the two men's wealth and their naiveté, thinking they were easy to fool.

"My surname is Jia, and I am the resident doctor at Ji'an Hall."

Nangong Manyu sneered: "Since you are a doctor from Ji'an Hall, you should know who your employer is and how many employers you have, right? Otherwise, how can I believe you are not a real doctor?"

The man behind her jumped out again and said, "How can you be like this, young lady? You're the ones who hit the person, and you're the ones who wanted to find the doctor. Now you're saying the doctor is fake."

Do you not want to treat the elderly or pay compensation? Just because you're rich kids, does that mean you can disregard the lives of us poor people?

Everyone, please be the judge! The rich are trampling us underfoot; we cannot be treated with such humiliation. We poor people demand justice.

This man was much more astute than that Doctor Jia; he stirred up the emotions of the people with just a few words.

When people are poor, the only thing they can retain is their insignificant dignity, which is often trampled on by the rich.

Such things have happened too many times. When they suddenly faced Nangong Manyu and Ye Yueze, it was as if they had found an outlet for their anger, and they all immediately started helping the old man.

"Are you two trying to run away? Let me tell you, there are people from the capital here today, neither of you can escape. Hurry up and pay for the old man's medical treatment."

"That's right, you hit someone yourself and you want to run away, huh? Hurry up and pay up."

"That's right, pay up, pay up."

As they spoke, they pointed at Nangong Manyu and Ye Yueze.

They could easily bump into someone if they weren't careful. Although Ye Yueze had never seen such a scene before, he still used his body to protect Nangong Manyu.

"Stop it! We never said we wouldn't pay compensation. Stop!"

The more Ye Yueze said this, the more it seemed like these people were taking out all their pent-up anger on the two of them, showing no intention of stopping.

Su Luo and Du Siyuan had just returned from the pharmaceutical factory when they passed by this street and saw people gathered around it.

The noise was deafening, with everyone making different noises, making it impossible for Su Luo to hear what was actually happening.

"Siyuan, has something happened there?"

Du Siyuan glanced at it and replied to Su Luo, "Grandmaster, this kind of thing happens often in the capital. Sometimes it's just a street performer. Don't worry about them."

Su Luo doesn't seem like it. Even if something serious really happens, the Prefect of the Capital will take charge.

"Oh! Let's go to Ji'an Hall and get that plaster for treating lumbar pain out for testing."

Su Luo lowered the carriage curtain, and Du Siyuan rode his horse outside her carriage. He was only focused on making medicine and didn't want to care about anything else.

“Grandmaster, ever since you mentioned making this ointment, I have prepared all the necessary herbs long ago.”

"But you've been busy at Wanxiu Pavilion these past few days, so the pharmaceutical factory can't keep coming to see you."

Su Luo leaned against the carriage to rest. These past two days had been filled with cotton harvesting, cotton carding, cloth weaving, and arranging with Shen Yuan to make that batch of cotton-padded clothes for the imperial court.

She wished she could use one day as two, plus the pharmaceutical factory, Su Luo felt that only by getting through this period could she get a proper rest.

"It's alright. If there's anything at the pharmaceutical factory and it's inconvenient for you to come to me, you can send someone to deliver the message."

She had only walked a few meters when she heard a frantic voice: "Vice Minister of Agriculture, something terrible has happened to the Vice Minister of Agriculture! The Fifth Princess has gone missing!"

Upon hearing the sound, Su Luo yanked open the carriage curtain. Standing in front of the carriage was Xiao Fei, Manyu's personal maid!

Su Luo and Du Siyuan came down at the same time, both of them extremely anxious.

"Xiaofei, tell me slowly, what exactly happened?"

Xiao Fei told Su Luo about their trip; they had been following the princess and the boy all along.

It was all that brown carriage's fault. It blocked their view, and the guards were also deliberately obstructed, which led to the princess and the boy disappearing.

They searched all the streets around here, but still couldn't find the princess. If the emperor found out the princess was lost, Xiao Fei wouldn't have enough heads to chop off.

"Xiao Fei, don't rush. Go and call all the guards over. Even if you're looking for someone, there has to be an order. Searching blindly like this isn't a good idea."

Su Luo thought back for a moment and realized that she had searched the surrounding area. If Manyu was surrounded, would the guards be able to see her?

Thinking about how many people had gathered together, Su Luo knew she had to go back and check on them.

"Oh no, Siyuan, bring our men and come with me."

Xiao Fei called back all the guards nearby, and Su Luo told her to go and call the Prefect of the Capital to help find the person.

Su Luo pushed through the crowd: "Make way..."

Du Siyuan ordered his men to surround all the people and shouted loudly inside.

"Stop it, all of you! If anyone moves again and gets hurt, don't blame me."

The voice was powerful and penetrating, instantly attracting the attention of the people.

Those on the outer perimeter saw that there were still many people outside, and they all had drawn their long swords, which greatly frightened the common people.

"Stop it, all of you! Don't move! The Prefect of the Capital is on his way. Let's see who dares to cause trouble."

Du Siyuan didn't know if the Fifth Princess was in the crowd, but if these people didn't move aside, his master wouldn't be able to go in and see her.

After Du Siyuan's warning, Su Luo rushed into the crowd and, sure enough, saw Nangong Manyu, who was in a disheveled state, and a boy.

"Manyu, Manyu, are you alright?"

Su Luo went over to help her up. Seeing that the people had quieted down, the old woman and the two men stopped talking.

However, his expression remained hostile, as if no one was going to leave without paying.

"I'm fine!"

She shook her head and pulled Ye Yueze up beside her. This guy wasn't very smart, and she didn't know if he was injured.

"Yueze, are you alright? How are you?"

Ye Yueze was also worried about her and quickly said, "I'm fine, I'm alright. As long as you're alright, that's all that matters. They are bad people."

Su Luo always exudes a powerful and intimidating aura; her arrival always diminishes the arrogance of those people.

"Manyu, what exactly happened? And why are these people here attacking you?"

As Su Luo spoke, her eyes swept across the crowd of people who had gathered around, making them all shrink back in fear.

"They are swindlers who wanted to cheat me and Yueze out of our money. I saw through their scheme, so they tried to incite the people to attack me and Yueze."

Public opinion is like gold; Yueze and I got entangled with them.

Ye Yueze looked at Nangong Manyu and asked, "Is what Manman said really true? Have they really been deceived?"

But what about the old man underground? He still hasn't woken up, and a doctor says he's really sick. What's going on?

He really couldn't understand the behavior of the people of Nanning anymore.
