After Li Pan and Jiang Ye left the capital.

Ang Lee also packed his bags and prepared to leave the capital.

"Second Brother, please keep the Cloud Flower Token safe." Li Ping handed the cloud-shaped token in his hand to Li An.

Holding the Yunhua Token, they went to the shops under the Yunhua Chamber of Commerce and received full support.

Ang Lee accepted it and put it away.

Li Ping then introduced the three people he brought to Li An: Chonglou, Kongqing, and Lingyu.

All three were highly skilled in martial arts and experienced in traveling. They were specially selected by Li Ping to protect Li An.

Ang Lee accepted three people, but refused the others.

"Second brother, when you arrive at a new place, you should not only treat patients, but also see what business opportunities are available. Write to me to let me know," Li Ping instructed.

"Okay, I'll definitely write to you," Li Ping replied. "Take good care of yourself in the capital."

Ang Lee left the capital by carriage.

Our first stop was Jinzhou.

Li Ping had already instructed Chonglou and the other two that no matter where Li An went, they should just take good care of him.

Upon arriving in Jinzhou, after some investigation, Li An met the two people he wanted to see.

Compared to seven years ago, Jiang Mingrui and Zhuang Meixue look much older.

His back was bent, his head drooped, and his hair was gray...

Jiang Mingrui and Zhuang Meixue looked at Li An with puzzled expressions. Who was this?

The puzzled looks on their faces made Ang Lee smile.

"I'm so glad to see you two not doing well."

"You are Jiang Tingjun?" Jiang Mingrui thought of a name.

"My name is Li An," Li An introduced himself.

"Jun'er, you're looking for your father!" Jiang Mingrui shouted, trying to rush towards Li An, but was stopped by the miners.

Jiang Mingrui is not allowed to approach.

“Jiang Tingjun, your mother’s death has nothing to do with us. It was all Ye Yunniang’s fault.” Zhuang Meixue’s words made Li An’s expression change.

Zhuang Meixue was overjoyed, "When Ye Yunniang was working as a wet nurse, she deliberately seduced Jiang Mingzhe. She's the one who caused me to lose my child, and she's the one who made Jiang Mingzhe give up on me."

I lost my child and husband, that's why I went crazy and started clinging to your father.

I was wrong, but I was forced into it by Ye Yunniang.

If it weren't for her, I wouldn't have been bothering your father. If you want to blame someone, blame Ye Yunniang.

She's raising you all in preparation for marrying Jiang Mingzhe.

Zhuang Meixue spoke faster.

“Jun’er, I really didn’t mean to abandon you. I didn’t want to either, please forgive me. From now on, I will definitely treat you well. Please forgive me,” Jiang Mingrui said.

"Don't believe your mother's words, believe you two adulterers who abandoned your wives and children and colluded in evil deeds." Li An's smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Jun'er, you have to believe me, mmm..."

"Son, mmm mmm..."

Jiang Mingrui and Zhuang Meixue were both speechless.

Chonglou and Lingyu retreated behind Li An.

Ang Lee nodded in satisfaction. “My mother is very, very good. Anyone who speaks ill of her is my enemy, Ang Lee.”

After Li An finished speaking, he ignored Jiang Mingrui and Zhuang Meixue's muffled cries.

After leaving the mining area, Li An slipped a bag of silver to the manager, instructing him to transfer Jiang Mingrui and Zhuang Meixue to the most dangerous mine shaft.

In Ang Lee's view, they were living too comfortably, which is why they had time to overthink things.

After leaving the mining area, Li An did not immediately leave Jinzhou. Instead, he provided medical treatment and donated medicine in Jinzhou.

Having confirmed that Jiang Mingrui and Zhuang Meixue were living in dire straits, he left satisfied.

"Second Master, where are we going next?"

"Let the horses roam freely, wherever they want to go?"

Upon returning to Kongqing, Li An drew a map of Jinzhou.

After listening, Kong Qing released the reins, and the carriage slowed down.

Chonglou and Lingyu, who were on either side of the carriage, loosened their grip on the reins, allowing the horses they were seated to walk leisurely.

Stop and rest when you encounter people.

After traveling for more than a month, they arrived at Flower Town.

A flower king competition is being held here.

Ang Lee found it interesting and decided to stay and watch.

The Flower King competition attracts many people from other places.

The four of them asked at all the inns in town, but they were all full.

Finally, Li An used the Yunhua Token to find a cloth shop in town owned by the Yunhua Chamber of Commerce. Two rooms in the backyard were set aside for the four of them.

Chonglou and Lingyu, Li An and Kong Qing shared a room.

After two days of sightseeing, Li An lost interest and sent Chonglou and two others to see him. He put up a sign on the street corner, offering free medical consultations.

The three men, Chonglou and his companions, were worried about leaving Li An alone, so they arranged a schedule for one of them to protect Li An each day.

Li An set up a stall for three days, but no one asked him to treat a patient.

Ang Lee looked like a boy of no more than 16 or 17 years old. To put it bluntly, he wasn't even fully grown yet, how could he know how to treat a patient?

Chonglou and his two companions were anxious and were thinking of soliciting customers, but Li An stopped them.

Ang Lee wasn't in a hurry; when there were no patients, he would read medical books.

Wherever he went, Ang Lee would visit medical clinics to seek advice.

There are those who are genuinely willing to communicate and improve together.

There are also those who cherish their possessions, and Ang Lee would use money to buy them.

With a younger brother who's good at making money, Ang Lee has more money than he can spend.

With sincerity and genuine talent, Ang Lee learned a great deal.

"Are you a doctor?" a six or seven-year-old girl asked timidly.

Ang Lee put down the medical book in his hand, his voice gentle.

"I'm a doctor, do you need to see a doctor?"

"My brother is sick."

"Have your brother come over; I'll provide free medical consultations here."

The little girl shook her head. "My brother can't come. Can the doctor come to our house for a consultation?"

Li An stopped Kong Qing, who was about to say something, and said, "Okay."

Ang Lee put the book into his medicine box and said to Kong Qing, "You stay here and watch the stall. I'm going to see the patients."

"Second Master, I'll go with you." Kong Qing was worried about Li An leaving with the young girl like that.

Kong Qing took a small piece of silver and asked the fortune teller next to her to watch the stall for a while.
