Chapter 75: Calm but Still



Ning Yunzhao left before dawn and specifically asked not to see him off, because he left quietly and it was early, and no one would see him.

Miss Jun was not polite and just asked Chen Qi to deliver the wine.

As Ning Yunzhao left the capital, the story about the top scholar and Miss Jun was still circulating, but there was not much to say. They had an ancestral engagement, but the woman gave up the engagement for revenge, and the man remained loyal to her. The woman practiced medicine to save the world, and the man won the top prize with his literary and military talents. They were truly a pair made in heaven.

Good things never arouse as much interest as bad things.

As for the matter of Lu Qianhu and the Prince of Chengguo.

"A gentleman loves a beautiful lady. Miss Jun is so outstanding. It's normal for someone to want her." A man in the teahouse took food from a woman who was selling steamed cakes in a basket and pointed at the people around him. "Tell me, who among you doesn't want to marry a daughter-in-law like this?"

Everyone present laughed and waved their hands.

"No, no."

The man pouted and sat down.

"There is nothing. I just don't dare to think about it." He said vaguely while chewing the steamed cake.

People of Lu Qianhu and Chengguogong's status naturally dared to think, that's why all those things happened, but now it's okay, they can't ruin other people's marriages, of course it's not impossible for them to bully men and women based on their status, but neither Miss Jun nor Ning Zhuangyuan are in a position to be bullied.

It is said that the emperor has already reprimanded Lu Qianhu and the princess.

"What does this have to do with the princess?" someone asked in confusion.

"I know this, I know this." Another man said hurriedly, "The princess also wants Miss Jun to marry into the Lu family, because Miss Jun cured Prince Huai and has superb medical skills. The princess wants Miss Jun to stay by her side so that she can protect Prince Huai."

“That’s so selfish.”

"Miss Jun can treat Prince Huai without going to Lu's house."

"We also want Miss Jun to continue to run the clinic and treat patients. How can we just do it for them?"

This made the others suddenly noisy.

The man who was speaking waved his hands to signal everyone to be quiet.

"So, the emperor reprimanded them. In the eyes of doctors, everyone is treated equally. Even if they don't go to Lu's mansion, Prince Huai can just ask Miss Jun for help if he has something to do. Miss Jun is a doctor, so naturally she has to treat people all over the world, not just one person." He said.

People around nodded.

"Your Majesty is right."

"Your Majesty is wise."

Everyone said gratefully.

Chen Qi shook his clothes and withdrew his gaze from the hall.

"This matter is over now." He said to Shopkeeper Liu.

Shopkeeper Liu nodded with a smile.

"Ning Zhuangyuan is still a very reliable mountain." He said with a smile.

Chen Qi frowned.

"However, this is fake after all. Master Ning is not young anymore," he said.

Master Ning has announced that he is engaged to Miss Jun, so Master Ning can no longer discuss marriage. Originally, this period of time when one's name was on the imperial examination was a good time to discuss marriage.

Mr. Ning is willing to help, and the Ning family's parents will probably go crazy.

Shopkeeper Liu stretched out his hand and stroked his beard.

"In fact, some fake things are real, and some real things are fake." He said, squinting his eyes and smiling, "Also, the engagement is fake, but the person's feelings are real."

It is said that Ning Yunzhao must have some feelings for Miss Jun that are not known to outsiders.

Chen Qi snorted twice.

It would be better if it became real. The Ning family is actually a good tree to rely on.

While they were talking, a servant came in.

"Lord Feng asked me to come and get the smallpox vaccines to be used next month," he said, handing over a list.

Lord Feng is naturally Doctor Feng. Since he has an official status, everyone starts to call him Lord.

Chen Qi smiled and took it.

"Ms. Jun, have you seen it?" he asked.

"Miss Jun has gone out to see a doctor. Just let you, the seventh manager, make the arrangements," said the servant.

The vaccination was carried out smoothly under the leadership of Dr. Feng, and Miss Jun also started to see doctors again, following the same rules.

"Although it is sad that Miss Jun can come for consultation, it means that she is very ill, but it is also a blessing to have Miss Jun come to treat her when she is seriously ill." An old man in a casual Taoist robe said under the eaves.

Miss Jun returned the greeting.

"Madam's illness needs to be cured slowly, Lord Wang, please don't be impatient." She said, "You should also comfort Madam and tell her not to be impatient."

Lord Wang nodded with a smile.

"Miss Jun, if you say that everything is fine, it will comfort my wife enough." He said, "No matter how much we say, it won't be as good as your words."

"So doctors have a heavy responsibility and dare not speak casually." Miss Jun said with a smile.

It's okay for other doctors to say this, Miss Jun said, Lord Wang looked at the girl and laughed in his heart, you really don't speak casually, but every time you say something, it's scary enough.

"Please come in, Miss Jun." Lord Wang came to see her off personally.

Miss Jun didn't hesitate to walk out.

Before he reached the door, he heard a commotion and an old servant came stumbling over.

"Master, Master, something bad has happened." He cried in a trembling voice.

Lord Wang frowned.

"What's the hurry?" he said.

"Master, people from the Golden Guard..." the old servant shouted.

Before he could finish his words, there was the sound of footsteps, and a dozen Jinyiwei guards in flying fish uniforms rushed in.

Lord Wang's expression was slightly solemn, and Miss Jun was also stunned.

To whom?

She looked around and didn't see Lu Yunqi among them.

"What do you want to do?" Lord Wang said.

The leading Jinyiwei took a few steps forward.

"Wang Lian, someone has accused you of embezzlement and we are ordered to search," he said coldly.

Lord Wang's expression changed.

"Nonsense," he said, then frowned again, "Is there an order for the search?"

The Jinyiwei smiled coldly and shook his badge.

"That's enough," he said.

Without waiting for Lord Wang to say anything, he waved his hand and the Jinyiwei guards behind him rushed in like wolves and tigers.

"How brave you are!" Lord Wang's face turned pale and he shouted, "Stop them."

Several servants bravely tried to stop them, but this immediately gave the Royal Guards an opportunity to attack, and immediately there was wailing in the house.

The Royal Guards kicked in doors, broke windows, threw tables and kicked chairs.

The whole palace was filled with screams and cries.

"Treacherous and treacherous! Treacherous and treacherous!" Lord Wang was so angry that he was shaking all over.

A girl was crying.

"Master, Master, the lady has passed out."

Mrs. Wang was already seriously ill, and she could not bear the shock of having her house suddenly broken into and searched by the Jinyi Guards.

Lord Wang almost couldn't breathe when he heard this, and stumbled towards the back house. Miss Jun wanted to catch up with him, but was stopped by a Jinyiwei.

"Officials are handling cases, and idle people should stay away," he said.

"I'm a doctor. The person inside has fainted. I have to go and save him." Miss Jun said.

The Imperial Guard looked at her coldly.

"Who knows whether you are here to save someone or to escape with someone else," he said, waving his hand, "Get out of here."

Several Jinyiwei soldiers stepped forward in unison with grim expressions.

Now is not the time to send betrothal gifts. They must have been instructed by Lu Yunqi to be rude to me and might even take the opportunity to flatter me.

Are they searching for Lord Wang by coincidence or are they targeting me?

Miss Jun looked at these Jinyi Guards and slowly backed away until she stood outside the door.
