Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Seeing him say those words with a serious face like a vow, Lu Ke'er's heart began to beat fast. She was really not used to it, and suddenly she felt the heavy responsibility on her shoulders.

She didn't want that kind of pressure at all.

"Don't be so serious." Lu Ke'er waved her hand. "I'm actually just a peasant girl. I don't have any ambitions. I only have my little piece of land in my eyes."

Shi Chenxing smiled and said nothing.

When he was with his father, he had seen a lot of the world. He believed that he would not be wrong. The girl who called herself a peasant girl had a cold and noble temperament. Even the shopkeeper of Pinxianlou was humble to her.

How can such a person be ordinary?

"What do we need to do? Please give us your instructions, young lady." Shi Chenxing treated Lu Ke'er with great respect.

Are you getting into a new role so quickly?

Lu Ke'er couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

She pondered for a moment and said, "You and your friends should help me pay more attention to news from all sides."

"What kind of news?" Shi Chenxing asked.

"Things from the government, things in the market, things that people live on... it's all fine." Lu Ke'er stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the rockery and rocks, as well as the green grass in the courtyard outside the window. Her eyes were blurred and her thoughts drifted away.

She asked leisurely, "Xiaoxing, have you ever thought about what kind of life you want to live in the future?"

Shi Chenxing thought for a moment and said, "When my parents were alive, I thought our lives were good. But when I saw my father being beaten to death and my mother committing suicide, I hated the prefect so much that I wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood. When my sister and I were homeless and wandering around, I hoped to live a stable life as soon as possible without worries about food and clothing."

"Do you still want revenge?" Lu Ke'er asked him.

Shi Chenxing's eyes were firm: "I want to!"

Lu Keer nodded: "I can understand your feelings. The hatred for your parents is irreconcilable. But you are very weak now, and you can't even protect yourself. What can you use to take revenge?"

Shi Chenxing secretly clenched his fists: "I understand. Miss, I understand what you mean, I won't be impulsive. I still have my sister, I am her support, we depend on each other. Now, my sister and I follow the young lady, I will follow the young lady's lead and obey her orders."

Lu Keer nodded with relief.

What she was most worried about was that the boy had lost himself in hatred, lost his original heart, and would no longer be able to be happy again.

Now it seems that this boy's mind is more resilient than she thought.

"Xiaoxing, do you know what kind of life I want to live?" she asked Shi Chenxing.

Shi Chenxing shook his head.

"I hope I can make a lot of money and control my own destiny. I hope I can live in a beautiful and happy countryside, where there are fragrant flowers and fruits, abundant products, and a beautiful environment. Those who till the land have their own fields, and those who live in the house have their own houses. Everyone has enough food and clothing and lives and works in peace and contentment. There is no war, no famine..."

Lu Ke'er spoke in her usual cool and calm voice, sketching out a beautiful picture of a prosperous pastoral life, which made Shi Chenxing fascinated.

He remembered that his father had told him when he was working in the Ministry of Revenue that he hoped that the people of Qi would have enough food and clothing, that the children could go to school, and that the elderly could live out their lives. He knew that this was his father's great wish. Unfortunately, the emperor was getting older and his energy was not enough. The crown prince was young and weak, and the Prince of Chen was ambitious. The factional struggles in the court were becoming increasingly fierce, and many capable officials were excluded and suppressed. His father had a lot of ambitions, but it was difficult to realize them. He resigned and returned home in despair, away from the court.

The girl in front of him seemed to have infinite power in her slender body. Her inner blueprint was more beautiful than her father's, and her vision was broader than her father's.

If my father were still alive, he would definitely become friends with her regardless of age difference...

Shi Chenxing looked gloomy, with waves of sadness welling up in his heart.

"Brother..." Shi Chenxing keenly noticed the change in his brother's mood. He took his hand and looked at him worriedly.

Lu Ke'er glanced over with a cold yet gentle gaze.

Shi Chenxing blinked, suppressed the bitter pain in his heart, and praised sincerely: "Miss, you have extraordinary insight, which is admirable."

Lu Ke'er smiled slightly: "You don't think I'm dreaming?"

"Miss is not that kind of person."

"You believe me." Lu Ke'er said with a smile, "Then do you know what kind of news I want to know?"

"I understand." Shi Chenxing nodded, "Everything that can help you realize your dream is what you want to pay attention to and know."

"You are very smart." Lu Ke'er looked at him deeply and smiled slightly, "I am looking forward to your performance."

"Don't worry, miss. I will satisfy you."

Lu Ke'er stood at the gate of Pinxianlou, watching the backs of Shi Chenxing and his sister gradually disappear into the distance.

Qin Fang asked curiously: "Miss Lu, where are they from?"

Lu Ke'er replied: "I am from Pingzhou."

It's okay to reveal this insignificant information.

"Pingzhou?" Qin Fang frowned and said, "That is the fief of King Chen."

"Ah."

"No wonder." Qin Fang sighed, "Pingzhou has fertile land, moderate rainfall, and large tracts of good farmland. Its grain output accounts for 30% of our dynasty. However, Pingzhou has heavy taxes, and the local people live in poverty. Many people cannot make ends meet and are forced to leave their hometown. These two children probably wandered because of this."

Hearing this, Lu Ke'er suddenly felt sad.

She had only been in this world for a few days, but she seemed to have completely integrated into it.

She will feel sad for the people here, and feel sorry for the people here...

"What kind of person is King Chen?" After a long silence, she asked Qin Fang.

"Prince Chen is the eldest son of the current emperor, born to the queen."

"The Crown Prince is his eldest son?" Lu Ke'er asked again.

She was more curious about why the emperor did not make Prince Chen the crown prince, but instead made his son the crown prince. Was he passing the throne directly to his grandson, bypassing his father?

Qin Fang looked at her strangely and shook his head: "The Crown Prince is not the son of Prince Chen, he is the son of Prince Jing, and he is the only son."

Lu Ke'er was stunned.

What is this operation?

"Your Majesty...is dissatisfied with Prince Chen?" she asked cautiously in a low voice.

"Everyone knows that His Majesty prefers King Jing."

"Prince Jing was also born to the Queen?"

"No. She was born to the late Imperial Concubine Yu."

"Then why not just make Prince Jing the crown prince, but make his son the crown prince instead?" Lu Ke'er was even more confused.

There are many examples in history of abolishing the legitimate wife and enthroning a illegitimate child, or abolishing the eldest son and enthroning the youngest son.

Qin Fang looked around and saw that there was no one around, so he lowered his head and answered in a low voice: "Many people say that the emperor originally wanted to make King Jing the crown prince, but unexpectedly, King Jing fell off a horse and was injured when he was in his twenties. His legs were disabled and he cannot walk until now."

"Ah?" Lu Ke'er immediately smelled a conspiracy. "How could such a coincidence happen in the world?"

"Yes." Qin Fang nodded, "There are many smart people in the world. But... there is no evidence."

"It's no wonder."

The vague speculation in front gradually became clear.

Prince Chen must be very unwilling, right? The throne should have belonged to him, but he had to give it up because his old man favored his youngest son.

"Shopkeeper Qin, I feel like the world is going to be in chaos," she said softly.

Qin Fang was startled, glanced around, and replied nervously in a low voice: "Miss Lu, be careful with your words."
