A few days later, two traveling doctors came to Lujia Village, Yangshan County.

They carried medicine boxes on their backs and walked into the village, shouting, "Those who are sick, see a doctor; those who are well, prevent disease. Fellow villagers, whether you are sick or not, come and see us."

In the village, a man in his fifties heard the shouting, looked at his attire and the medicine boxes they carried, and came forward to ask, "Gentlemen, are you a doctor?"

As they walked, they answered, "Yes, old man, are you feeling unwell?"

The man in his fifties said, "My heart is burning."

The two men walked to a big tree in the village and put down the medicine box.

One of the doctors took the pulse of the man in his fifties and examined him for a while: "Brother, you've probably been eating one meal and skipping the next for a long time, and your stomach is in trouble."

"I'll prescribe you a prescription. Take it according to the instructions and take three doses in a row to see how it goes. If you feel better, I'll stop. If you still feel a little uncomfortable, take three more doses."

With the shouting, many villagers quickly gathered under the big tree.

After the man in his fifties took the prescription and left, a young man squeezed in and said, "Doctor, my foot is not doing well. Can you help me?"

The doctor took the young man's foot, examined it, and felt it. "Oh, young man, if you sprain your ankle, you should see a doctor immediately. It's just a minor problem, but if you wait too long, it will become difficult to cure."

The young man said, "Not long, not long, only seven days."

The doctor asked, "If I hadn't come, how many more days would you have waited?"

As he spoke, he suddenly twisted his hand hard and said, "Reset it."

The young man screamed in pain: "Ah..."

The doctor put down his foot and said, "Alright, alright, get up and jump."

The young man moved his feet and miraculously found that it didn't hurt as much.

He quickly got up, took a few steps, and then jumped up, saying happily: "Miracle doctor, I'm fine..."

The doctor called again, "Next."

Here, the doctor is treating the villagers.

On the other side, another person in the group was chatting with the villagers.

It seems that he is not very skilled in medicine and is just here to help the doctor.

The man said, "I heard that a big shot has emerged from your Lujia Village. It's incredible."

An old man said proudly, "That's Lu Suifeng, the governor of Baocheng Prefecture. He is from our village. He is now a great sage of our Southern Liang Kingdom."

The man asked, "Old man, have you seen him?"

The old man patted his chest and said, "Of course I have seen him. His mother gave birth to him, and it was my wife who delivered him. When he was born, there were thunder and white cranes flying across the sky of our village."

The man asked again: "Is it so mysterious?"

The old man said, "When a great sage descends from heaven, there must be auspicious signs."

The man chuckled a few times: "So, old man, did you watch him grow up?"

The old man chuckled and said, "No, his father, Lu Shuan, rolled down from that cliff and died."

"His mother was frail and sickly, unable to work. It was very difficult for her to take care of the two brothers. Later, she passed away quietly, and no one knew where she went..."

The man said, "Old man, since he passed away when he was a child, how do you know that the Lord of Baocheng Prefecture is the son of Lu... Lu Shuan from your village?"

The old man said, "Of course I know. His name is Lu Erwa. Back then, we all called him Erwa, Erwa. How could it be false?"

He sighed, "Alas, those years, with natural disasters every year, every household had a hard time. Every household had deaths, and no one could take care of the three of them..."

"Erwa, do your best."

The man laughed and said, "Haha, old man, in my opinion, the governor of Baocheng Prefecture, although his surname is Lu, may not be from your village."

The old man scolded him, "Nonsense! My wife delivered the baby herself, how could that be false?"

The old man seemed angry and stood up: "I won't talk to you anymore. You outsiders are jealous of us from the bottom of your hearts and can't stand us doing well."

After the old man left, the man started chatting with someone else.

He asked a middle-aged man, "Have you met Lord Lu?"

The middle-aged man said, "Of course I've seen him. His father, Lu Shuan, grew up with me wearing open-crotch pants."

The man then asked, "What about his grandparents and uncles?"

The middle-aged man said, "His grandfather died young, and his grandmother remained a widow and never remarried, giving birth to only one son."

The man said "Oh" and said: "What about his grandmother?"

The middle-aged man said, "When he was only two years old, his grandmother also passed away. Otherwise, would his mother not have survived?"

The man then asked, "How do you know that the governor, Lu Suifeng, is the Lu Erwa from your village?"

The middle-aged man stood up and said, "Why are you asking so much? Is this true? Our village has a capable man who is doing business in Baocheng. He met Lord Lu in Baocheng a long time ago. He told me this when he came back."

The man nodded: "I see, your Lu family is really great, with so many talented people."

He then asked, "Who is the one doing business in Baocheng among you? I'll see if I can do business with him later."

The middle-aged man said, "It's Lu Pan. He went home to visit his relatives and hasn't left yet."

The man stood up and said, "Really? Then I have to go meet him."

About a mile away from the big tree, Lu Pan’s old house is being renovated.

Several villagers came over with a stranger.

The middle-aged man said, "Nephew, this doctor wants to meet you and do business with you."

Lu Pan turned around and asked, "Are you also in the tea business?"

The man said, "My hometown is Pingxi County."

Lu Pan became interested when he heard this: "Really? Pingxi is a major tea-producing county. I import a lot of my tea from Pingxi. As long as your costs are lower than others and your tea is better, we can do business."

The man chuckled and said, "I heard that you have a big tea business. I'd like to get to know you first. When you return to Baocheng, we can talk about the tea business in detail."

Lu Pan brought over a chair and said, "Sit, sit."

The man sat down and said, "Your Lu family is incredible. Two famous people have emerged at once. I heard that you and Master Lu Suifeng were friends when you were little."

Lu Pan chuckled: "That's right, when we were little. I was older than him and I would often run around the village with him naked."

The man asked, "I heard later that his mother took him away from Lujia Village when he was very young. After so many years, do you still recognize him?"

Lu Pan said, "At first, I really didn't recognize him. After all, his name was Lu Erwa when he was a child, and he later changed his name to Lu Suifeng. We didn't know that."

He talked freely, "Later, he studied under the sage Liang Jizi and began to make a name for himself. Later, he was transferred to Baocheng to serve as the governor of the prefecture. That's when we got to know each other again. As we chatted, we realized we were both from Lujia Village..."

"Hehe," he said proudly, "This is the bloodline of my Lu family. He will eventually return to my old Lu family."

The man asked, "Then how do you know who each other is?"

Lu Pan said: "It's not simple. When he talked about his mother, I remembered her. When he talked about his childhood, he also vaguely remembered a few things, especially me, Pan brother. At that time, he followed me around all day long. Brother Pan... Brother Pan..."

The man nodded: "It's really not easy. After being separated for so many years, we can still meet again and recognize each other again..."

Lu Pan said, "When you come to Baocheng, I will introduce him to you. But I have a condition. We must do business together. I will introduce him to you. He is very busy all day long. It is not possible for ordinary people to meet him casually."

The man laughed and said, "That's right, that's right."

Lu Pan stood up and said, "By the way, I hired someone to rebuild the graves for his father, grandparents, and I have to go and see if these people are cutting corners."

The man also stood up: "I'll go with you to take a look."

Here, His Majesty the King specially dispatched an imperial physician and an official, disguised as traveling doctors, to Lujia Village to investigate.

On the other side, several undercover agents selected from the palace were going to Zhou State to investigate Lu Xunhuan. At this time, they were climbing over the cliffs near Qingtian Pass.

But when they were halfway up, a woman suddenly appeared from above the cliff, riding a magic weapon.

The woman shouted, "Nanliang thieves, you want to sneak into my territory? I advise you to get off quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."

Several people were frightened and hurried downstairs.

On the top of the cliff, Senior Sister Lan and a group of fellow apprentice sisters remained on guard for a long time. Only after they saw the other party retreat and disappear, did they leave.

After a while, she returned to the pass and reported to the Sixteenth Princess: "Princess, several people from Nanliang tried to sneak across the border, but we discovered them and they have already left."

Princess Sixteen nodded. "Thanks to him for arranging you to assist me that day. Without your help, it would have been very difficult to keep those stowaways at bay."

She walked to the side and sat down: "By the way, I can't slack off, it's time to practice."
