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

He showed not the slightest concern for his life or death.


Duan Xiaoyan clenched his teeth, his voice carrying a threat, "Doctor Lu, I am from the Palace Front Office. By attempting to harm a guard of the Emperor, are you not courting death?"


It was as if she heard something laughable and actually laughed, her gaze deep and meaningful as she glanced at him, "Young Master Duan decided to break into a civilian's home late at night, seemingly to commit burglary, but you were unfortunately bitten by a poisonous snake I had procured as a medical primer."


"You entered Renxin Medical Hall uninvited, and you took the jar without permission and opened it yourself. A thief who opens the jar containing a poisonous snake loses their life as a consequence. Once this story gets out, others will say that justice is served and the retribution is swift. How could you blame it on me, and how could you possibly use the word 'harm'?"
