Hong Xinyue said no, seeing how much Jiang Wei respected the old man, she couldn't let him go.

"You mean, he put all the herbs in your porridge?" Hong Xinyue tried to find a reason to keep him here.

“No, I had someone release them,” Jiang Wei said firmly.

"Was that a prescription he wrote?" Hong Xinyue said with certainty. "He must be the only one in the entire capital who would dare to prescribe medicine to prevent the epidemic when there is no epidemic."

The crowd was almost all staring at Doctor Mo, their eyes scrutinizing him, their disdain and disbelief written all over their faces.

"If you're going to hire a doctor, you should hire a good one! Look at him, he's so old, and he's still writing prescriptions and getting medicine. He's probably too old to even see the herbs properly!"

"He must have given us the wrong medicine, which is why we are in this state. The adults wanted to kill us for money, but they refuse to admit it. But what bad person would admit to doing something shameful?"

"Sirs, you must stand up for us!"

"The adults arrested them and interrogated them severely."

The crowd's shouts for Jiang Wei to be arrested were particularly loud, and Hong Xinyue spoke a few more words to the leader.

The officials had no choice but to arrest her and Doctor Mo.

Lian Sang wanted to protect them, but Jiang Wei wouldn't allow Lian Sang to clash with the government officials.

If they were to clash with the officials in front of the people, it would certainly confirm that they were the ones who poisoned the people. Dewdrop followed Jiang Wei to the prison cell.

The officials locked Jiang Wei in a cell and then went to find the prefect to investigate.

Lian Sang then went to find Xiao Zhan.

The crowd followed, standing outside and refusing to surrender, insisting that Jiang Wei pay the price she deserved.

In the cell, Jiang Wei stood in front of Doctor Mo with some guilt, fiddling with her handkerchief apologetically. "Doctor Mo, I'm so sorry to have made you come to the cell with me at your age. I'm truly sorry."

Jiang Wei raised her hand in the air, "But I assure you, we'll be out of here very soon."

Doctor Mo was a little angry. "What did you call me? Why are you using people to face forward and backward?"

"What did you call me outside? Why am I locked up now? Am I Doctor Mo again?" Doctor Mo asked.

Jiang Wei was a little embarrassed. "There were too many people just now. I was afraid that your identity would be exposed, causing you unnecessary trouble and disturbing your peace. I didn't mean to offend you."

Doctor Mo nodded indifferently, "From now on, you can call me Grandpa Mo! It sounds more intimate. Besides, because of this imprisonment, my health might not be as good as before when I get out. You'll have to take care of me before."

Doctor Mo shook off the dust from his clothes.

He looked at Jiang Wei, "What made things difficult for you?"

Jiang Wei shook her head. "How could that be? I was just too happy and didn't realize it for a moment."

"So what should you call me!" Doctor Mo stared at her intently.

Jiang Wei had no idea that she would gain something else from Hong Xinyue's scheming.

Doctor Mo took out a small gourd from the house and handed it to Jiang Wei, saying, "This is full of medicine that I have prepared. Consider it a gift from Grandpa Mo to you."

Jiang Wei had given Doctor Mo gifts many times, but this was the first time Doctor Mo had given her something.

Seeing the grateful smile on Jiang Wei's face, Doctor Mo felt a little guilty, as these medicines were all made from the gall bladder of the Dragon King that Jiang Wei had given him.

He simply gave her a small portion of what she had sent him, just to make her happy.

“If you like it, I’ll give it to you again next time,” said Doctor Mo.

Jiang Wei knew about this antidote pill; she had seen it in Doctor Mo's ancestral formula of a thousand remedies for treating illnesses.

So she was very excited. As expected of Doctor Mo, he really could concoct miraculous medicines.

Hearing that Doctor Mo would also give her medicine, she nodded happily.

Lian Sang went to the Zhan Prince's Mansion but couldn't find Xiao Zhan. She was just about to go to the Shen Prince's Mansion when she saw Xiao Zhan return.

When Lian Sang saw Xiao Zhan return, she hurriedly ran over and knelt down in front of him.

Seeing his anxious expression, Xiao Zhan quickly asked, "Has something happened to Miss Jiang?"

Lian Sang nodded and recounted the whole story to Xiao Zhan.

"Nonsense, courting death!" Xiao Zhan angrily spurred his horse toward the capital.

Hong Xinyue must have had a death wish to scheme against Jiang Wei.

Xiao Zhan appeared at the Jingzhao Prefecture and said, "Qingfeng, tie up all those people with stomach aches and ask a doctor to come and examine them to see what's wrong with them."

The men at the door, thinking they had succeeded, were happily waiting to collect their money from Hong Xinyue after the matter was over.

Suddenly, a man started to tie them up.

Xiao Zhan's chilling aura on the battlefield made people feel as if a storm was brewing, and the air was filled with the scent of death.

They had originally intended to struggle and argue with Xiao Zhan.

Xiao Zhan looked at them with the same cold gaze he gave a corpse, and instantly they all fell silent, like ostriches burying their heads in the ground.

Those men were just ordinary people; they had never encountered a man with such a powerful aura.

They all knelt obediently in the Jingzhao Prefecture. After a while, Qingfeng brought in a bucket of black water, which was still steaming.

"Aren't you all suffering from stomach aches? This is medicine that my master specially brought for you. Drinking it will cure your stomach aches." Qingfeng took a ladle, scooped some water from the bucket, and slowly poured the dark water back into the bucket.

"Why aren't you coming over for a drink? Your stomach doesn't hurt anymore, you haven't taken any medicine, your stomach is all better. You're not just pretending to deliberately make things difficult for Miss Jiang, are you?"

Qingfeng had been on the battlefield for ten years after all. Although his aura couldn't compare to Xiao Zhan's, he was more than capable of dealing with these civilians.

"Come and drink, why aren't you drinking? Do you expect me to feed you? Hmm?"

The men were startled. They wondered what kind of torture he would inflict if he couldn't finish feeding them.

The timid one hurriedly crawled over, saying in a trembling voice, "No need, no need, I can do it myself, I can do it myself."

Seeing that some people had started drinking, the others hurriedly climbed over, scrambling for the water ladle, hoping to be the first to drink. What would happen to the rest of them if they didn't get any?

Almost everyone got to drink, but two people didn't. The two quickly grabbed the bucket, lifted it up, and poured the remaining water into their mouths.

After they finished drinking, Qingfeng asked, "Did everyone drink?"

Everyone nodded. "We've had our drink."

"It's good that we got to drink it." A gentle breeze blew around them as they walked a few times.

When I approached them, they were trembling with fear.

After a while, Qingfeng asked, "Is everyone feeling any better?"

Someone pretended to rub their stomach and said, "Hey? I feel better now! Thank you for the medicine, sir."

The others chimed in, "I'm all better too."

Several people even stood up and walked around to show that they were all better.

Qingfeng asked again and again, "Are you sure everything is ready?"

They insisted that they were all better and said it was the medicine brought by Qingfeng that was good.

Qingfeng nodded. "That's good. I never knew my foot bath water could cure diseases."
