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 lowered his head, no longer paying attention to the noise outside, focusing only on the task at hand.


At the doorway, Meng Xiyang looked toward the person standing in front of the couch, her complexion barely concealing her shock.


How could Pei Yunmeng have suddenly appeared here?


The Emperor had bestowed a feast at Minglin Garden today, and Pei Yunmeng went to the palace with Prince Wen. The banquet wouldn't end until the evening. Even if Pei Yunmeng's men had secretly sent a message, it would take time for Pei Yunmeng to receive the news and hurry over. What about Prince Wen? Why wasn't he here?


As though realizing something, Meng Xiyang's beautiful face twisted slightly in fear.


Pei Yunmeng was here for her sister. Without Prince Wen present, who in the Wangfu could possibly protect her now?


Meng Xiyang couldn't help but take a step back.
