Chapter 224 Setting up a stall



Xiao Shengxing was out for most of the day, and when he came back, he looked a little heavy.

Seeing him like this, Su Lijin couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"

He nodded and handed her a booklet.

Su Lijin was a little confused. After taking it, she looked at it for a few seconds.

However, the contents inside shocked her.

That booklet contains evidence of the corruption chain.

The amount of evidence listed was so overwhelming that she was amazed.

It’s no wonder that Master Guoyun had this expression. Su Lijin suddenly understood.

"Is everything here true?" She was a little unsure.

Xiao Shengxing glanced at the booklet, his expression sullen as he spoke in a serious tone, "I can't be sure everything matches, but at least the evidence above should be irrefutable."

This means that it is most likely true.

"I'm afraid we need to report this to the higher-ups. This is such a big deal, and it's not something you and I can decide on our own. The decision on how to proceed should be made by those above us."

What she meant was that the emperor who entrusted Master Guoyun to conduct an open and secret investigation was the decision maker.

Even if the two of them had some guesses, they should report them first.

When Xiao Shengxing heard this, his expression flickered slightly, but it was only for a short moment and no one noticed.

"Let's go now without further delay."

She immediately packed her things and set off with him.

These days, the two of them haven't been walking very fast.

Tan Tai Chun had previously told Su Lijin that the substitute in the palace was very reliable and that she didn't need to travel so fast, so she slowed down her pace.

No matter how slow we go, we are already close to the imperial city.

It didn't take long to get back to the imperial city. By dusk, the two had already entered the city.

Xiao Shengxing placed her in a place in the city to rest and said, "Rest well. I'll go report first and then find you."

Knowing that he was going to report to the emperor, Su Lijin didn't keep him. She nodded and said obediently, "I understand. Be careful."

"Yeah." After looking at her for a while, Xiao Shengxing stood up and left.

Seeing him leave, she sat there bored for a while, ate something until she was full, and had no intention of returning to the palace.

In fact, she had no intention of entering the palace and planned to stay outside the palace for the time being.

Anyway, the huge mess in the palace will not fall on her for a while.

Besides, she had other things she wanted to do.

Putting down her chopsticks, Su Lijin went out and started walking around.

She was not wandering aimlessly along the way. She was looking at the storefronts on the street, searching for something.

When she saw a clinic not far ahead, her eyes lit up and she hurried to the door.

Su Lijin showed a satisfied smile on her face and walked in.

"Do you want to see a doctor? If so, please queue up here."

The guy in the clinic pointed to one side indifferently.

There was already a long queue there, and people heard the voice and looked towards her.

"I'm not here to see a doctor."

She smiled, her eyes confident and calm.

The waiter was stunned and frowned, "Why are you here if you're not going to see a doctor? This isn't a rouge shop. We don't want you to wander around here. If you have nothing to do, please leave now."

After saying this, he didn't bother to pay attention to her anymore.

Su Lijin was still smiling, not angry at all, and said, "I'm here to see a doctor."

"What? Are you here for a medical consultation?" The clinic clerk turned around and looked at her in disbelief.

Seeing that she was extremely beautiful and didn't look like a doctor, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Miss, which mansion are you from? Before you start seeing patients, shouldn't you first read some medical books thoroughly and then find a master to learn from before you make such boasts?"

The guy laughed so hard that he held his stomach, with a look of sneer and contempt, as if what Su Lijin had just said was a huge joke.

The people queuing on the side also looked at Su Lijin with contemptuous smiles.

Su Lijin's expression remained calm as she said quietly, "I have a master. I am a disciple of a divine doctor and have learned medical skills."

As soon as the words "disciple of the miracle doctor" came out of her mouth, those who were making fun of her were stunned.

The waiter looked her up and down suspiciously. After seeing that she was indeed just a weak woman, he sneered again: "Are you the disciple of the miracle doctor? You must be joking!"

"That's right, you're so young, why don't you do anything else but come here and cheat people!"

"Yeah, isn't the title of the Divine Doctor's disciple a bit fake? If you are the Divine Doctor's disciple, then I am also a Divine Doctor!"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

A group of people laughed out loud, without any regard for Su Lijin's feelings, and their sarcastic attitude was too obvious.

This title was ridiculed again, but Su Lijin no longer felt that much.

She was not discouraged, but just shook her head helplessly: "Forget it, I don't believe it."

"Go away, scammers are not welcome here." The guy put his hands on his hips, as if to drive someone away.

Su Lijin raised her eyebrows, turned around and walked out.

Just leave, she doesn't believe she has no other choice.

After leaving the clinic, her eyes fell on the open space next to the clinic, and an idea came to her mind.

After a while, a table was placed at the entrance of the clinic, a flag was inserted, and a stall was set up with the words "Consultation and Treatment" written on it.

Su Lijin sat solemnly behind the table, waiting for someone to come and see the doctor.

However, she sat there for a long time, but no one was interested in her stall.

There were many people passing by, but the look on their faces clearly showed contempt.

"Doctor, please see my husband. He is dying..."
