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

Across from him, the Deputy Commander of the Palace Front Office, Xiao Zhufeng, spoke in a deep voice, "The Department of Criminal & Justice has seen to everything, His Majesty is conducting a thorough investigation of the imperial examinations this time, and with a group from the Ministry of Rites implicated, it's the perfect opportunity for our people to step in. Do you have any doubts?"


The case regarding the tribute examinations had progressed more smoothly than anyone had anticipated.
