Yuan Shen readily agreed to Rong Su's request.

This didn't surprise her much. She had asked Jiang Yanyu about it before, and it was obvious that Jiang Yanyu should have told Yuan Shen about this in advance.

That's why when she talked to Yuan Shen about this matter, he agreed so readily.

So, two days later, it was the day that Rong Su decided to go to Ningcheng.

Rong Su walked out of the Jiang residence with her bag, and when she looked up, she saw Gu Yun and Gu Yuer standing next to the carriage.

When Gu Yuer saw her, she waved at her excitedly and shouted, "Sister Rong!"

She just nodded to Gu Yuer, and out of the corner of her eye she caught a glimpse of Shen Peiqing standing not far away and talking to the groom.

When she saw him, she was a little surprised. After walking over, she looked at Gu Yun and Gu Yuer with a puzzled look.

"Why is he here?"

Gu Yuer seemed confused when she heard her words: "Ah? Sister Rong, didn't you promise to let Brother Shen go with you?"

What? When did she agree?

Before Rong Su could even speak, Shen Peiqing spoke first, not even giving her the slightest chance to refuse: "Rong Su, you said it yourself. I should listen to you and treat you according to your wishes. But I'm afraid that after you leave, I'll forget how many beans to pick. So, I think it would be better for me to follow you and let you keep an eye on me."

This person spoke with confidence, and didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with what he said.

But Rong Su felt very strange when she heard this. Did this guy's brain fall into the pond? In just two days, he seemed like a completely different person.

He was clearly showing an unyielding and refusing to obey just two days ago, but now he is much more obedient.

Rong Su looked at Shen Peiqing with a strange look and was about to say something, but Shen Peiqing had already boarded the carriage. He had no intention of communicating with her and was determined to follow her.

Seeing this, Rong Su frowned. What was wrong with this man?

Sitting in the carriage, Shen Peiqing folded his arms, his eyes seemed to be looking through the curtain of the carriage, looking at Rong Su's figure, his eyes were filled with a layer of misty black light.

He followed her just to keep an eye on her. Who knew what this crazy girl would do? When she went crazy, she would do anything she wanted. If she died, who would heal her?

Thinking of this, Shen Peiqing closed his eyes and dozed off peacefully.

Outside, Gu Yun stood aside, noticing Rong Su's expression. He concealed the emotion in his eyes, walked to her side, and said with a soft smile, "Brother Shen, it's okay for you to come along. Maybe you'll find some way to heal Brother Shen's meridians along the way, so there's no need to delay treatment on the spot."

After hearing Gu Yun's words, she seemed to be a little enlightened. She looked at him with admiration and nodded in agreement.

"Gu Yun, you're right. That makes sense."

Therefore, Rong Su didn't plan to argue with Shen Peiqing too much. If he wanted to go, he could go. As long as he didn't act like crazy anymore, it would be fine.

The four of them sat in the carriage at the same time. The carriage was specially lent to her by Jiang Yanyu. It was the best carriage in the Jiang residence, so it was very spacious and enough to accommodate the four of them.

Listening to the sound of the carriage wheels rolling over the gravel outside, the carriage was eerily quiet.

I don't know how long the silence lasted, but finally someone spoke first.

"Miss Rong. What are you going to Ningcheng for this time? I think I might be able to help in some way." Gu Yun thought for a long time and hesitated for a long time before asking Rong Su. He was still a little nervous.

Hearing Gu Yun's question, Shen Peiqing, who was originally pretending to be asleep, secretly half-closed his eyes and leaned to the side.

After hearing this, Rong Su pondered for a moment before replying, "You know my clinic is now open in Lincheng, but the number of patients who go there is very small. People still don't trust my medical skills. In that case, I will first go and polish my reputation."

Gu Yun seemed to understand what she meant immediately. After thinking for a moment, he continued, "So you went to Ningcheng to save people there and spread your medical skills?"

Seeing that he understood, Rong Su raised her lips. It was really pleasant to communicate with a smart person.

She nodded and said seriously, "That's right. I went there this time because I knew that a young lady from a wealthy family in Ningcheng had a strange disease. If I could cure this strange disease, my medical skills would have a certain influence in Ningcheng. Ningcheng and Lincheng are not far apart, and as the saying goes, good news can spread a thousand miles. In this way, my medical skills will also be well-known in Lincheng."

"Heh. Haven't you ever thought that even the people of Lincheng don't dare to go to your clinic for treatment, so would Miss Xiao be willing to accept your treatment?" Shen Peiqing chuckled inappropriately, then sneered.

After hearing his sarcastic remarks, Rong Su glanced at him coldly and warned him with some dissatisfaction: "Whether Miss Xiao is willing or not is none of your business."

Shen Peiqing opened his dark eyes and looked into Rong Su's eyes. Neither of them was willing to give in to the other, and neither of them would back down, causing the entire carriage to fall into a heated atmosphere.

Gu Yun really couldn't bear to watch it. Not only did he not want them to hurt each other's feelings, but there seemed to be a voice deep in his heart telling him not to let Shen Peiqing and Miss Rong have excessive contact. Without figuring out the voice in his heart, he spoke out to ease the atmosphere.

"Actually, I think as long as the request is reasonable, I think Miss Rong will be able to get Miss Xiao to accept it."

Rong Su didn't expect Gu Yun to trust her so much. She was a little touched. She looked at Gu Yun with gratitude, and then glared at Shen Peiqing fiercely.

Shen Peiqing was slightly stimulated, his black eyes turned cold, and he clicked his tongue softly.

Seeing Rong Su and Gu Yun seemed to be smiling at each other, he felt a little strangely uncomfortable. Not understanding this feeling, he simply ignored it and closed his eyes, thinking out of sight, out of annoyance.

After a day and a half, they arrived in Ningcheng.

The prosperity of Ningcheng is similar to that of Lincheng.

The difference is that in Ningcheng, you can smell the rich aroma of wine as soon as you enter the city.

The whole street was filled with the smell of alcohol, and there were many wine shops and restaurants in the streets and alleys.

Gu Yuer seemed to understand a lot and began to introduce it to Rong Su: "Sister Rong, you don't know that Ningcheng is from a wine city."

"Wine City? Why is it called that? Is it because there are more restaurants and taverns here?" Rong Su became a little interested.

Gu Yuer raised her chin and said excitedly, "It's not entirely because of this reason. It's because this place has the largest glutinous rice fields. Glutinous rice is the raw material for winemaking, and it's the most abundant here. This city is also famous for its wine, and it's also a trade commodity."

Rong Su didn't know much about Ningcheng. She had never set foot in Ningcheng in her previous life.

However, Rong Suduo glanced at Gu Yu'er and saw her proud expression. He couldn't help but teasingly asked, "How did Yu'er know this? Could it be that Yu'er has been here before?"

"Haha. Yu'er and I have never been to Ningcheng." Seeing that Rong Su seemed confused, Gu Yun explained with a low laugh.

Seeing her brother spoiling things, Gu Yuer puffed up her cheeks and muttered unhappily, "Brother, I haven't even shown off to Sister Rong yet. Why are you explaining so quickly?"

Gu Yun looked at Gu Yuer helplessly and shook his head.

"Sister Rong, it's like this. Didn't I say before that I'm the best at finding out information? I must prove my strength, so before I set off, I went to inquire about the situation in Ningcheng!" Gu Yuer came close to Rong Su with a bright smile and an expression that looked like she was asking for praise.

Seeing her like this, Rong Su naturally didn't hesitate to praise her. He smiled and reached out to touch her head: "Very impressive. Yu'er actually found out so much information about Ningcheng."

After receiving Rong Su's praise, Gu Yuer's smile became even wider and she looked very satisfied.

Shen Peiqing looked at Rong Su touching Gu Yu'er's head with a cold look, a coldness flashed in his eyes, and his thin lips parted slightly: "What you are asking is just the most useless information. The main thing is the news of the Xiao family."

As soon as these words were spoken, Gu Yuer's smile froze, and she even seemed shocked.

Although he had to admit that Shen Peiqing was right, Rong Su would not attack someone who worked hard for him.

She glared at Shen Peiqing, then comforted Gu Yuer, "It's okay. Yuer, just do your best."

Gu Yuer was comforted by Rong Su, her eyes filled with emotion. She looked at her and said with a pursed mouth: "Sister Rong, you are so kind."

Shen Peiqing tutted coldly, turned around and observed for a moment, then walked directly to a small stall selling wine jars, took out a few copper coins, and asked the vendor, "Do you know how to get to the Xiao residence?"

When the vendor saw the copper coin, his eyes lit up. No one would refuse money, so he immediately took the copper coin and pointed the way to him: "It's just in front. Turn the corner and go a little further to the left."

After asking, Shen Peiqing turned and looked at Rong Su, looking at her with some arrogance, and one could even see the provocation and disdain in his eyes.

"We've found the way. Let's go."

Rong Su raised her eyebrows, said nothing, and glanced at Gu Yun. Gu Yun looked back at her and nodded, then she walked directly in the direction the vendor pointed.

When Shen Peiqing saw that Rong Su didn't even say thank you to him, he immediately felt depressed and his eyes were filled with gloom.

He glared at Rong Su's back, then took a step forward to follow her unwillingly.

Afterwards, the four of them followed the street vendor's directions and found a mansion, where they saw a plaque with the words "Xiao's Residence" written on it.

"It seems to be here." Gu Yun said calmly.

Rong Su looked at the gatekeeper standing at the door, then glanced around and saw an order on a tall wooden sign not far from Xiao's house.

She walked straight over and stopped to read the contents carefully.

It did say that they were looking for a talented doctor to cure Xiao Huan, the young lady of the Xiao family. As long as the cure was successful, they would receive five thousand taels of gold.

"Five thousand taels of gold?" Gu Yuer also saw the order and the gold on it, and was shocked.

Rong Su was not interested in the money offered at first, but now she feels that if she can get it, it will be a great help to her in opening a clinic, which may not be a bad thing.

Thinking of this, she reached out to take off the order.

Just as she got the order, someone walked over and snatched it away from her. Rong Su frowned slightly and looked at the person with coldness.

It turned out to be the gatekeeper. When the servant saw Rong Su's gaze, he was frightened and took two steps back.

Rong Su was puzzled by the servant's behavior. Suppressing her displeasure, she asked softly, "Why did you take my order away? I'm planning to see Miss Xiao. I might have a way to cure her illness."

The servant put away the order and waved Rong Su away, saying, "No need. My young lady is already being treated by the divine doctor Matthew. Please go back."

After hearing this, Rong Su was a little surprised. What?

It was not until she saw the servant enter the Xiao residence and close the door that she came to her senses and suddenly didn't know what to do.

She never thought that there would be someone like her who would take the initiative to volunteer to remove the order.

"Miss Rong, perhaps we can think of other ways. We don't necessarily need to cure Miss Xiao to promote our medical skills." Gu Yun saw that Rong Su seemed a little depressed. He couldn't bear to see her like this, so he comforted her in a gentle voice.

Seeing her brother comforting her, Gu Yuer echoed, "Yes, Sister Rong. There must be other ways!"

Rong Su lowered her eyes and thought. She had overlooked this point. She was too confident and thought that apart from herself, no one else could cure Miss Xiao's strange disease, which led to this situation.

She has to reflect on herself.

"Thank you. Let's find an inn first." Rong Su put away her uncomfortable mood, cheered herself up, spoke to them, then turned around and left the Xiao residence first.

Gu Yun looked at Rong Su's back and felt uncomfortable. He could only follow her pace silently.

Gu Yuer observed the other person's expressions for a while, then chose to follow in silence, walking side by side with Rong Su.

As for Shen Peiqing, he glanced at the Xiao family before following them.

They found an inn not far from the Xiao family and stayed there first.

In the evening, Rong Su was packing her things. She had just finally persuaded the Gu Yun brothers and sisters to leave. She chose to stay alone for a while.

Maybe it was because she was a little frustrated, but it didn't affect her for long. She just needed some time to think about the next step.

After putting everything away, she felt ready to go downstairs for dinner.

As soon as she walked out the door, she saw two guests who also lived upstairs passing by, and she stepped aside to make way.

I heard their conversation.

"I heard that the hard-to-get Quanshan Blood Lotus was picked by someone?"

"Yes. That person is lucky, otherwise such a rare item might not be purchased even if he spent several thousand taels."

When Rong Su heard about Quanshan Blood Lotus, his eyes moved slightly, and he immediately went over and stopped the two men.

The two men were startled when they saw her, and then one of them looked at her in confusion: "Why is this girl blocking the road? Is there something wrong?"

Seeing the other party's confused and unhappy expressions, Rong Su took out a silver ingot from her sleeve and handed it to them. The two men's eyes were instantly attracted by the silver, and they also understood what she meant.

One of them took it and looked at Rong Su in a somewhat flattering manner: "Miss, do you want to know something?"

She got straight to the point: "Do you know who got the Blood Lotus from Quanshan Mountain? Where does that person live?"

Then the man told her all the information she wanted to know. After she wrote it down, he made way and let the two men go downstairs.

Rong Su narrowed her eyes. It was really a ray of hope. Although she lost the opportunity to promote her medical skills, it was a good thing that she got the whereabouts of the Quanshan Blood Lotus.
