Chapter 398 Spreading Rumors
The whole village was in an uproar.
The Feng family felt humiliated and ashamed, yet they also hoped that Lu Qingqing would release them.
Lu Qingqing looked at the woman with a cold gaze.
"Those Feng family members are truly useless! They send a little girl to sacrifice herself to save her mother, while a bunch of grown men might as well be dead. What face do they have left to live!"
The woman was stunned.
"And you, if you were dying, would your daughter try to save you like this?"
"Of course my daughter wouldn't!" came the woman's instinctive defense.
But he was mocked harshly: "Then your daughter is extremely unfilial, watching you die by her own eyes!"
You all say filial piety is greater than heaven!!!
"..."
Lu Qingqing's sharp gaze swept over a group of villagers. She saw an old woman with gray hair and slightly dull eyes, standing alone under a big tree, far away from the others.
She stared at the old woman and shouted, "Qi Huai Ren, using his medical skills to insult women, he is the truly wicked hypocrite!"
Anyone who is deceived by him and goes to the government office to report him will be rewarded for ridding the people of a scourge!
The old woman's eyes gradually brightened.
"A land offer..." some villagers murmured.
But he was dragged away by his family.
The villagers all started talking about it. Many people said that Dr. Qi was a good person, but they also gossiped about which family always had their daughter go to get medicine.
Then they talked about Xiaomei, who had died. Xiaomei was an honest child since she was little.
But Feng Shuang is an honest person, yet today she dared to kill someone...
It's causing quite a stir, with all sorts of rumors circulating.
The old woman under the tree muttered, "My little Mei, I'll go get justice for you..."
That damned Qi Huai-ren, and that damned Sun Ping, neither of them will escape...
Daylight is breaking, daylight is breaking...
...
The Feng family exposed this scandal, but instead of being let off the hook, they lost all face.
Not only will their land be confiscated, but they will also be unable to hold their heads up high for the rest of their lives!
They cursed Boss Feng's wife, then glared at Feng Shuang as she got off the bus.
"Why don't you just die? You should die!"
"If it were the old Holy Physician Sect..." The old man fell silent again.
He dared not mention the past again.
Feng Shuang looked at the man she had called "Grandpa" for over ten years, and there was not a trace of the usual deference in his eyes.
"Why should I die? It's Qi Huai-ren who deserves to die! I want to tell everyone about the evil deeds he committed!"
The old man's eyes bulged: "Who else do you want to talk to?"
"I will tell the people in the city, I will tell the people of the world, I will tell wherever there are people!"
"Hiccup—" The old man choked, his eyes rolled back, and he fainted!
"Uncle, Uncle—"
...
Inside the city, at a medical clinic.
Qi Huai-ren felt as if he had thorns in his backside; he was restless and uneasy.
A young woman walked in and timidly called out, "Dr. Qi..."
His expression suddenly changed: "What are you doing here! Don't come again!"
"My...my father's medicine is finished..."
The girl was so frightened that her face turned pale and her eyes filled with tears.
"This time, I'll listen."
"Shut up!"
Qi Huai Ren's face was terrifying as he glanced outside.
He snatched the prescription from the girl's hand and quickly grabbed a handful of medicine.
"Get out of here right now and don't ever come back!"
This time, she actually got ten doses of medicine at once! And she didn't even have to do anything?
The girl was overjoyed and quickly ran off with the medicine.
Another hunched-over old man with a cane walked in to see a doctor.
Qi Huai-ren patiently adjusted his facial expression, "Where do you feel unwell?"
"It's me," the old man said, but it was a young man's voice.
Qi Huai-ren was immediately excited: "You've finally come! Quickly save me! There have been people watching outside. Do they know what I've done?"
"Of course I know! They've already started investigating! I told you I'd kill him after one round, but you insisted on leaving yourself a future problem!"
"You don't understand, it's so interesting to watch those little things go from being scared to being obedient. Never mind... let's not talk about that. Tell me quickly how to help me escape from the city?"
“Of course there’s a way, but you swallowed those gold dots…” The old man’s eyes gleamed.
Qi Huai-ren gritted his teeth: "I'll give you half!"
"Good! Don't worry, Lu Qingqing's reputation is about to be ruined! I heard she has to give those people an explanation in three days, and I've already sent someone infiltrate to incite them to cause trouble!"
"Then you can take advantage of the chaos..."
...
By the second day, eight female victims had been identified.
Besides Feng Shuang, four others have already been persuaded to come forward and accuse Qi Huai Ren.
In addition, the charges against the other doctors were also clearly listed.
After reporting to Lu Qingqing, Mo Lang went out.
He then saw Qingyao hiding around the corner, waving at him.
He remained motionless, his face cold.
Qingyao bit her lip.
Okay, he's still angry.
But now she's a brave girl; if she makes a mistake, she'll take the initiative to admit it.
So she ran straight over.
"Mo Lang, I'm sorry about that day..."
"Whoosh—"
A gust of wind blew by.
Mo Lang leaped onto the wall and disappeared!
Qingyao stared wide-eyed, pouted, and looked somewhat aggrieved.
I'm still angry and ignoring her.
"I didn't mean to, I'm just feeling so bad..."
"So what if I bit you a few times?"
Oh, and I fiddled with it for a while.
But he was unconscious and probably didn't know.
And it just won't get started!
Otherwise, would she bite someone because she's in pain?
If he were capable, she wouldn't have made such a mess of things for herself!
You stinky idiot!
Mo Lang jumped between the two eaves and hid under them.
It’s over!
He had something he was afraid of.
He was an incompetent guard.
I really want to cover my face with a mask again, become a bodyguard again, and hide myself away.
Two soldiers were whispering to each other below.
“Miss Lu can arrange for someone to do these things; there’s no need for her to do them herself. She did nothing wrong by helping those women, but she’s gotten herself into a mess!”
"Yes, even if she doesn't care, can't she think about His Highness?"
Your Highness is destined to ascend the throne and reign supreme over the world.
She came from a rural background, so even if she couldn't become empress, she couldn't have a messy reputation, even if she was just a concubine.
Rumors are circulating that she learned her medical skills through... seductive tricks!
As they were talking, they suddenly felt a chill on the top of their heads.
Looking up, they saw a dark figure descend from the sky and kick them away with one foot!
"Anyone who dares to speak ill of Miss Lu behind her back will be dealt with according to military law!"
"Cough cough cough... Brother Mo, it's not us who's talking about it, it's everyone outside. I heard they've even made up stories about it in the city! They say that before Miss Lu met His Highness, she took off the pants of many men to treat their illnesses..."
Mo Lang kicked him again, sending the speaker spitting out blood.
His eyes were like a deep, cold pool, and without a doubt, if that person said another word, he would die!
"Then you should find out who's spreading these rumors behind the scenes, instead of joining in the slander!"
Another soldier gritted his teeth: "But Brother Mo, since Miss Lu is going to be with His Highness in the future, she should also be mindful of her reputation. Sometimes she doesn't need to personally intervene. His Highness is such a noble person, she..."
"It's none of your business to worry about His Highness! Just do what His Highness tells you to do and follow Miss Lu's orders!" Mo Lang warned.
"If I hear anyone speaking ill of Miss Lu again, you shall go back and speak to His Highness in person!"
The two soldiers clutched their chests, their expressions restrained, and bowed their heads in agreement.
Mo Lang thought that teaching the two a lesson was the end of it, but little did he know that things would escalate further.
Soon, Lu Qingqing also found out.
Because those righteous people who came to punish the enemy had already surrounded the mansion gates in advance.
