Mountain Wanderer

Lu Tong spent seven years studying medicine in the mountains, but upon returning home, he found everything had changed.

His eldest sister, a victim of foul play, met a tragic end.
His elder brother, wrongfully imprisoned, languished in dungeons.
His father journeyed to the capital to seek justice, only to meet a watery demise on the road.
His mother, driven to madness overnight, perished in flames.

Lu Tong packed his medical kit and headed to the capital of Jingzhou.

'Debts must be repaid, and lives must be avenged!
'If there's no judge, then I'll be the judge from Hell!'

In the capital, noble families faced successive tragedies,
Commander Pei Yunxing quietly investigated the matter,
And suspicions fell on a young woman from the Renxin Medical Hall.
However...
Before he could find evidence,
The girl made her move against him first.

Smiling Under Lanterns

Lu Tong hadn't expected to encounter Pei Yunmeng here.


After a hurried glimpse in yesterday's rain, she saw Pei Yunmeng leaving the temple with a monk by his side, heading in a direction that wasn't this one, perhaps he had other matters to attend to within the temple. She hadn't expected to run into him first thing this morning here.


Before she could respond, a tall man in green clothes beside Pei Yunmeng asked him, "Who is this..."


Lu Tong considered herself nothing more than a casual acquaintance of this Princely Heir Pei, definitely not on familiar terms. But being here and ignoring him would only draw more attention. She nodded politely, "Lord Pei."


Pei Yunmeng approached her with a smile.
