A middle-aged man whose leg had been broken by a blow to the calf cried out, "Dr. Wei, please save my mother! I'm not afraid of being arrested, but if you don't save her, she won't survive, Dr. Wei!"
Another young man cried out, "Please, let Doctor Wei examine my father first. He's dying. Please, I'm willing to be locked up in jail if you can save my father!"
......
Butler Qiu looked at the crying and shouting people with nothing but mockery in his eyes. A bunch of lowly people, daring to oppose him, they were simply courting death.
"Dr. Wei, are we leaving or not?"
Looking at the people being escorted by the yamen runners, Wei Bainian closed his eyes in anguish, his voice trembling, "I'll go with you, just release them!"
Steward Qiu only wanted to invite Wei Bainian to the Prime Minister's residence; whether or not these lowly people were arrested was irrelevant.
Steward Qiu took out a bag of silver from his pocket and handed it to Constable Zhang. "Constable Zhang, thank you for your trouble. Please release the person."
Constable Zhang took the money bag, weighed it in his hand—it was quite heavy—and laughed, “No trouble at all, maintaining the peace of Longxiao City is our duty. Then I won’t keep Steward Qiu any longer, let’s go.”
Constable Zhang waved his hand, and the constables released the person they were holding and left with him.
"Doctor Wei, please." Steward Qiu was the first to board the carriage.
Wei Bainian gritted his teeth and got into the carriage.
As the carriage left, a group of people who had just been beaten by the yamen runners stood up slowly, supporting each other. Their eyes were filled with tears, hatred, and even more so, helplessness.
Since ancient times, the common people have never fought against the officials. They were just ordinary people, how could they possibly fight against the powerful Prime Minister's mansion? They could only accept their bad luck.
The middle-aged man dragged his broken leg into the clinic, wiping away tears as he went.
Seeing this, Su Ruojin developed a better impression of Wei Bainian, who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.
Compared to Cai Fanzhou and Zhou Lei in the past, Wei Bainian's actions truly deserve the title of "a doctor with a benevolent heart".
Su Ruojin thought for a moment, then stepped into the clinic.
There was an elderly woman lying motionless on the bed, her lips turning purple. The middle-aged man had been calling out "Mother" repeatedly, ignoring his own leg injury.
On the bed next to the old lady, there was an old man with a tree branch as thick as a thumb stuck in his right chest.
It looked like he had fallen from a height, landing on a tree, with a branch piercing his chest. The young man was kneeling in front of the other doctors at the clinic.
"Doctor, please save my father, please!"
There were two doctors in the clinic. They both shook their heads after seeing the man's condition. "Young man, it's not that we don't want to help, but we truly can't. With Doctor Wei here, there might have been some hope for your father's injury, but now... sigh!"
"Doctor, what about my mother? Is there any hope for her?" the middle-aged man asked anxiously.
One of the doctors said, "Your mother suffered a sudden heart attack. In the entire clinic, only Doctor Wei is skilled in treating sudden heart attacks. We really don't know how."
Sudden heart disease requires acupuncture combined with special techniques to treat, but the two remaining doctors in the clinic had no skills to do so. They were willing but unable to help, and could only watch helplessly as the patient's vital signs slowly deteriorated.
The other patients in the clinic looked on with sympathy, lamenting that the two men probably wouldn't live past today.
“If you trust me, I can give it a try.”
Suddenly a voice rang out, and everyone turned to look. It was a handsome young man speaking.
"Young master, are you saying you can save these two people?" Doctor Li could hardly believe his ears.
