Chapter 857: Please, Princess, make the decision for us!



The episode came from the private soldiers stationed outside the courtyard in the slums. They were guarding the door for the county magistrate's nephew, but they found no sound from inside. This was not the nephew's usual style. Fearing something was wrong, they went in to investigate, but found only an unconscious young wife in the house, and no trace of the man in brocade clothes.

These people were terrified, but no matter how they shook the young wife, she wouldn't wake up. It was obvious that she had been drugged. They hurried to the street to look for her, and their search led them straight to the gate of the county magistrate's mansion.

But Feng Yuheng didn't have time to think about them. It was only one night. Tomorrow morning, the county governor's mansion would be bustling with more than just the nephew. I'm afraid that by then no one would care whether the nephew was dead or alive. Everyone's attention would be focused on Teng Ping. If Teng Ping wanted to survive, he could only go to her.

After visiting Ji'an County that night, when they returned to Yuzhou's house, it was already dawn. Feng Yuheng quickly washed up and went to bed to catch up on her sleep. She was still sleeping soundly and didn't even know her second sister had returned.

After noon the next day, Feng Yuheng got up, washed up, ate, and then went out shopping with her sister, three maids, and the general Li Zhu who she had recruited. Her Baicaotang was located on the busiest street in Yuzhou City. Wang Lin had brought two doctors from the capital to this place early this morning, and they quickly integrated into the management of Yuzhou Baicaotang.

Baicaotang has one master, that is Princess Ji'an Feng Yuheng, while Wang Lin is the shopkeeper in the capital, and is also in charge of the accounts of other provincial governments. Of course, Qingyu will also conduct inspections on weekdays, but after all, she still doesn't care as much as Wang Lin.

When the people of Yuzhou heard that a doctor from the capital had come, everyone was very excited and curious. It was said that the doctors in the capital were very skilled, especially those in Baicaotang in the capital. The doctors' skills were personally taught by Princess Ji'an and her grandfather, the genius doctor Yao Xian. If such a doctor could be stationed in Yuzhou in the future, it would be a great thing for the people of Yuzhou.

Many people come here to try it out. There has been a long queue since the store opened in the morning. People are reluctant to leave even until noon. The snack vendors are very good at doing business. They carry their loads on their shoulders and walk around the queue. People who are reluctant to leave will buy food from them to fill their stomachs.

It is the same in any era. Medical clinics and hospitals have the best business. People may not eat good food, but they must take medicine when they are sick. Even the poorest people will save some money for medicine. They can't just watch their loved ones die. Feng Yuheng thought of the hospitals in the 21st century. There was always a traffic jam in front of the hospital. No matter how many parking spaces the hospital set up, they would be full. No matter how many inpatient buildings were built, there was a shortage of beds. Those who went to the hospital for treatment had to get up very early to queue up for registration, and some examinations might not be available on the same day. It is said that running a hospital is a huge profit. In fact, it is absolutely true. It is indeed a huge profit.

Many of the people who came today were servants from wealthy families. They did not come to see a doctor for themselves, but to invite doctors from the capital to see their masters. Wealthy families were very particular. No matter whether it was the lady or the master, it was impossible for them to show up at the clinic. Even if they were sick, they would invite a doctor to their house. Some families even supported guest doctors. There was such a thing in the old Feng Mansion.

But only two doctors from the capital came today. First, they were not familiar with the situation here. Second, the place of Baicaotang here was not big, and it could not be compared with the capital. If so many doctors came in at once, there would be no place for them to stay. Instead, the old doctor who was originally in charge of Yuzhou would have some thoughts in his mind. Wang Lin was going to influence them subtly. However, the servants sent by the rich and powerful families to invite people did not all return disappointed. Wang Lin also made arrangements based on the manpower he had. Basically, starting from tomorrow, the doctors who were still in the house could be dispersed to various mansions to see the masters and nobles.

Making money is one thing for Baicaotang, but the most important thing is to spread the word. When they first arrived, they had to quickly spread the good name of Baicaotang and Princess Ji'an, creating a certain positive impact in the hearts of the people.

When Feng Yuheng arrived, he saw these spectacular scenes and was very satisfied.

She didn't put on airs, and simply asked someone to bring two chairs out of the house. She and Xiangrong sat at the door of Baicaotang and started chatting with the people. She told the people: "In theory, many seriously ill patients should be hospitalized for treatment, so that it is convenient for doctors to observe them around the clock. However, the Baicaotang we opened in Yuzhou is a bit large and cannot meet such needs. But don't worry, this problem will definitely be solved. We will try our best to expand the business so that people in the city can see a doctor. In the future, we will also build another Baicaotang in Ji'an County that is as big as the capital. Whether it is the allocation of medical staff or the regulation of medicines, it will be exactly the same as the capital. At that time, the relationship between Ji'an County and Yuzhou will become closer, and it will be very convenient for everyone to go there to buy things, visit relatives, or see a doctor."

She spoke with a smile on her face, which made people feel closer to her. Although some of her words were not easy for ordinary people to understand, the general meaning was understandable. Originally, she was a princess, and the people of Yuzhou had never seen such a high-ranking official. People were very nervous and didn't know whether they should kneel down and kowtow. However, Feng Yuheng took the initiative to talk to them and made them relax. They felt that this princess was not what they thought. She didn't have that kind of high-handed sense of distance at all. Instead, she was very kind and caring for the people. She was even kinder than Qian Fengshou, the parent official of Yuzhou.

So, people put away their nervousness and took the initiative to talk. Someone said: "Speaking of Ji'an County, many people have moved there now. I don't know why they moved there in a hurry. I heard that they have to build their own houses there. But Ji'an County won't let us in, and those who move in can't get out."

"Alas!" An old man over fifty years old who knew some inside information took the initiative to say: "I heard that those people are not willing to move away, but they are threatened by the Teng family and have to move. Princess, you don't know that the soldiers of the Teng family often come to Yuzhou and bully the people. They never pay for things they take, and if the seller asks for more, he will be beaten and scolded. Alas, the people of Yuzhou can be said to have lived under the shadow of Ji'an County all year round, and they are always worried!"

As he was complaining, a group of six Ji'an County private soldiers happened to pass by and heard what he said. The leader was furious and shouted, "What the hell are you talking about!" Then he rushed over and started to beat the old man with his fists.

The old man was terrified. He never expected that what he said was overheard by these people. He regretted it and was also worried about his life. The government couldn't do anything about the private soldiers in Ji'an County beating people. How many hits could his old bones withstand? He came here to get medicine for his wife, but he didn't expect to lose his life.

He closed his eyes in despair, but the fatal fist did not fall, and the hand that had grabbed his front loosened. The old man was puzzled and bravely opened his eyes to see, but he saw that the strong man who had been following Princess Ji'an was holding the wrist of the private soldier, and with his other hand, he unceremoniously pried open the fingers that were holding his collar. He used so much force when prying them open that he could even hear a crackling sound, and it was obvious that the bones were broken.

The old man shuddered with fear and subconsciously took two steps back. He heard the private soldier screaming in pain, but Li Zhu's hand showed no intention of loosening.

The private soldiers who followed them saw that their leader had suffered a loss and were about to come forward to help. But before they could take a step, Ban Zou, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly flashed out and knocked those people to the ground in almost the blink of an eye, and then flashed and disappeared again. It was as if he had never appeared just now, and those people were injured by themselves.

Li Zhu asked Feng Yuheng: "Princess, how should we deal with this person?"

Feng Yuheng glanced at the man, but didn't rush to reply. Instead, he asked, "Beating people in the street, in your eyes, is there no Dashun law? Are the Yuzhou government just a decoration?"

Unexpectedly, the man shouted, "We are soldiers from Ji'an County! Ji'an County has its own county laws. What does your Dashun law have to do with me? I just like to beat people in the street! I just like to beat you Dashun people in the street."

As soon as he spoke, the people shuddered subconsciously. It was obvious that they had become accustomed to being under the shadow of these people for so many years.

"So, you don't admit that you are from Dashun?" Feng Yuheng pondered over what that person said, and had some thoughts in his mind. Seeing that she nodded, he said, "It seems that Ji'an County has become a country of its own. Well, since you are not a citizen of Dashun, then this princess does not need to show any mercy. Li Zhu, just beat him to death!"

Li Zhu was born a soldier, and he always had a complex called "obedience" in his bones. Unless what the generals said was against his own morality, like what the eighth prince did, he would always obey.

When Feng Yuheng gave the killing order, Li Zhu drew out his sword without any hesitation, and chopped off the man's head with a wave of his hand.

For a moment, blood splattered everywhere, and the gushing blood splashed on many people, but people did not hide. Instead, they glared at the corpse that had fallen to the ground with the pleasure of revenge in their eyes.

For many years, the people of Yuzhou have lived cautiously under the pressure of Ji'an County. All the governors of Yuzhou have been unable to deal with that special place. Some people have thought about resisting, but there has never been a successful precedent. Those who resisted were either killed or injured. Gradually, no one dared to confront Ji'an County anymore.

Now, Princess Ji'an has arrived, the real owner of Ji'an County has arrived. This is the princess of the royal family, the future wife of the ninth prince, the god of war. The fiefdom was granted by the emperor himself, and she is the only person in the entire Dashun who officially owns the fiefdom.

People suddenly remembered the legends about Princess Ji'an, how she saved the world, how she made steel for Dashun, how she and the Ninth Prince teamed up to lead troops to attack Qianzhou...

People finally realized that this princess was also a god of war and an existence that no one could ignore. Now that she was here, the people of Yuzhou would never be bullied by the Teng family again!

I don't know who took the lead and knelt down, shouting: "Please ask Princess Ji'an to make a decision for the people!"

Everyone knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Princess Ji'an, please make the decision for us!"
