"Miss Lu, please don't call me Master Kun. My last name is Lu, Lu Kun. We were one family five hundred years ago, haha."

"Okay, then I'll call you Uncle Kun, and you can just call me by my name." Lu Ke'er has always been casual about addressing people.

"Haha, great, Ke'er!" Lu Kun was very happy.

"Your injuries are too severe. I will give you an injection every other day. You must take medicine regularly." Lu Ke'er instructed.

He then took out pen, ink, paper and inkstone, wrote a prescription and handed it to Aqiang.

"Go to Xuanhu Pavilion and get the medicine according to my prescription."

Ah Qiang asked in confusion: "Why didn't the girl let me go to Ruyi Hall to get the medicine?"

Lu Keer said bluntly: "There is a doctor named Li in Ruyi Hall, who is very annoying."

A Qiang nodded and said, "It seems that Doctor Li has some conflicts with Doctor Sun. Today, Master Kun vomited blood, and he even blamed Doctor Sun for it."

Lu Ke'er understood: "That Li has evil intentions. He must be very jealous of Doctor Sun."

Ah Qiang suddenly remembered something and said, "Doctor Li even reported to the authorities and wanted to arrest Doctor Sun."

"What?" Lu Ke'er was shocked and very angry. "Sure enough, I expected it. I just didn't expect that this Li guy would take action so quickly!"

The more I think about it, the more uneasy I become.

"No, I have to go see Doctor Sun. I hope nothing happens."

"Then... take my carriage to Jinji Town." Lu Kun said, "We also need to go back."

"Okay, let's get going without further delay."

Gao Yutang and Yu Qianjing looked at each other, both of them were very disappointed.

"This Li guy made us miss out on even the Lu family's lunch. How hateful!" Yu Qianjing's peach blossom eyes were slightly cold, with a fierce look flashing in her eyes.

"Let's go and support your master!" He patted Gao Yutang's shoulder and followed quickly.

When Ji learned that her daughter was going to the town, she was confused, but she had to let her go after Gao Yutang and Yu Qianjing repeatedly assured her that they would send her back.

Lu Mingxi stayed in Lu Tianning's room early in the morning to learn to read. When he heard that his sister was going to town, he insisted on going with her.

Lu Ke'er coaxed and deceived him, and promised to buy him some of his favorite red date cakes, and Lu Mingxi finally stopped making a fuss.

When they got on the carriage, Aqiang smiled and said, "It turns out that Miss Lu is so gentle in front of her family."

"Am I not gentle usually?" Lu Ke'er snorted coldly.

Lu Kun scolded, "Silly boy, if you don't know how to speak, then don't speak!"

A Qiang scratched his head awkwardly and smiled foolishly.

Lu Keer glared at Lu Kun and said, "Your injury hasn't healed yet. Don't use too much force or get angry."

Lu Kun laughed: "As you wish."

A Qiang looked at Lu Kun, then at Lu Ke'er, and smiled even more happily.

Usually, Mr. Kun has a lot of bad temper. It's rare to see Mr. Kun who can laugh and joke like he does now.

However, this kind of Mr. Kun made him feel better.

Lu Ke'er sat in Mr. Kun's carriage, followed by Yu Qianjing's carriage. They arrived at Ruyi Hall and after asking around, they learned that Doctor Sun had been taken away by the yamen runners. So they rushed to Xilin County without stopping.

Xilin County is only about 20 miles away from Jinji Town, and its population is several times larger than Jinji Town. The streets are wide, with shops lining both sides, pedestrians coming and going, and the crowds are very prosperous, and the commercial atmosphere is even stronger.

It was already noon, that is, a little after 1:00 p.m., and the few people had not eaten yet, and they were all hungry. They hurriedly found a clean restaurant, had a simple meal, and then went to the county government office.

Yu Qianjing's resentment deepened.

He could have had a delicious lunch at the Lu family, but now, not only can he not enjoy the delicious food, but a noble young man like him has to eat in such a shabby place. He said that he would never let the culprit have an easy time.

Lu Ke'er didn't know that Yu Qianjing's disgust and aversion to Ruyi Hall had deepened. At this moment, she was anxious.

In modern times, she had heard about the cruelty of ancient punishments, and the various brutal punishments were horrifying. If you encountered an official who was corrupt and abused private punishment, the person who was arrested and brought to the government office would be skinned as soon as he entered, regardless of whether he had committed a crime or not.

The more she thought about it, the more worried she became.

Doctor Sun is old, and if he is hit a few more times, he will probably pass away.

After finding out the location of the county government office, the few of them drove their carriage along the street unhindered and soon arrived in front of the county government office.

It was the first time that Lu Ke'er saw a real ancient government office, but she was not in the mood to take a closer look. She saw two yamen runners guarding the vermilion lacquered gate and a huge drum standing beside the door.

She walked over to the drum and picked up the mallet.

"What are you doing?" Yu Qianjing was shocked and quickly grabbed her and asked.

"Beat the drum to complain."

That's how it's played on TV.

"Miss Lu, we haven't reached that point yet." Yu Qianjing took the mallet from her hand and put it back to its original place, then brushed a strand of black hair that fell on her chest behind her ears and shook her head proudly, "Look at me."

After saying that, he walked to the front door and arrogantly ordered the two yamen runners, "Go, call Fang Xingzheng out."

"How dare you! How dare you call the master by his name!" one of the bailiffs shouted angrily.

Yu Qianjing found it funny: "I have always called him that! Call him out now!"

The bailiff wanted to say something else, but another tall bailiff stopped him.

The tall yamen runner looked Yu Qianjing up and down, secretly surprised.

The young man in front of him was handsome and noble, and obviously had an extraordinary background. Thinking of his master, who was said to be a disciple of the Yu family in the capital, and had met many young men from wealthy families, this young man might be an old acquaintance of his master, and he could not help but put away the contempt on his face.

"Sir, please wait a moment. I will go in and report right away." The tall man said this and hurried into the yamen.

"Is this Fang Xingzheng not the one I was thinking of?" Gao Yutang couldn't help but ask Yu Qianjing when he heard the familiar name.

"It's what you think it is."

"This kid didn't want to stay in the Imperial Academy in the capital, but ran to this corner to be a county magistrate?"

Gao Yutang was extremely surprised.

"What's so surprising about this?" Yu Qianjing glanced at him and said, "Didn't you leave your job at the Imperial Hospital and come to this corner to be a doctor?"

Lu Ke'er and Lu Kun, who were standing by, were thinking secretly after hearing this.

Lu Ke'er thought to herself that these two people were actually from powerful backgrounds.

But Lu Kun found it incredible.

What is the charm of the small Xilin County that attracts all these nobles?

After a while, a burst of hurried footsteps came from the yamen. After a while, a tall and handsome man in official robes appeared in front of him.

"It's the Second Young Master!" He looked at Yu Qianjing with excitement, "I didn't expect the Second Young Master to come to Xilin County. Please come in, please come in!"

"Fang Xingzheng, I haven't seen you for two years. You seem to be becoming more and more powerful." Yu Qianjing said to him sarcastically.

"Second Young Master, please stop making fun of me." Fang Xingzheng said with a smile, "After two years of separation, you have become even more charming and outstanding."
