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

It seems this was precisely why, when Lu Qian went to Shangjing to seek justice, he sought the help of Fan Zhenglian's door first.


Asking for aid from a "Lord Qingtian," who must investigate every injustice, sounds unproblematic. Moreover, Lu Qian spent most of his time in Changwu County, where it's common for ordinary folk to seek fairness from an official when faced with injustice.


Lu Tong lowered her eyes. For someone truly upright and incorruptible, why was his residence so luxurious? Even with Fan Zhenglian's current salary, maintaining such an estate would not be easy.


Unless his wife brought a considerable dowry, but Fan Zhenglian's wife, Zhao Feiyan, came from a family background not much different than his before his promotion.


As the head of Shengjing's criminal court, if someone bribed him, it would only be to tamper with case proceedings.
