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

Three days later, at the Fan Family Mansion in Shengjing.


The mynah bird hanging outside the side room began chattering in its cage early in the morning.


In the arbor of the small courtyard sat a woman dressed in a pale blue-green gauze gown, with elegant brows and beautiful eyes, captivating in beauty. She was the wife of the Minister of the Imperial Treasury, Old Master Dong, known as Lady Dong.


The young servant at her side presented her with tea and spoke in a low voice, "My lady, please wait a moment, our mistress will be here shortly."


The patriarch of the Fan Family, Fan Zhenglian, was the current Examiner Official of the Trial Court, in the prime of his years. He had risen through the ranks extremely quickly within a few years, and consequently, his wife's status had also risen with the tide. Lady Dong was here today to deliver an invitation to Lady Fan.
