“As long as you calm down and take good care of yourself, you still have a chance.” Gu Chengrui said as he retracted the needles.
Mr. Lou knew that he was just comforting him. “Alright,” he said. “Let’s talk about medicine again when we have the chance.”
After a few polite words, Gu Chengrui and Lou Yifei left.
“Is there no chance at all?” Lou Yifei asked hurriedly.
Gu Chengrui shook his head.
“Now, we can only take good care of him. If the old man has any other wishes, try your best to satisfy them.”
“I understand.” Lou Yifei nodded.
“I look forward to your exam in three days. You can look for me when you have time.” After Gu Chengrui finished speaking, he patted Lou Yifei’s shoulder, turned around, and walked out.
After Lou Yifei sent him away, he heard his father’s painful cry when he returned. He stood there for a moment.
Then, he turned around and informed his men to start preparing for the funeral quietly.

Three days later, Lin Yitian handed Gu Chengrui a book at night. “My Lord, this is the information left behind by Guard Xiao and the information collected by Hongyun Restaurant. I’ve already summarized it.”
“Yes.” Gu Chengrui took it and glanced at it. On it were the doctors’ names, personalities, and family situations in each county, including the prefecture.
Anyone domineering, greedy, with evil thoughts, or surrounded by power was circled in red.
He didn’t expect that Madam Lou was only Lord Chen’s second wife and, moreover, a second concubine.
Because Madam Lou married Lord Chen, the Lou family started from a small medicine shop and became the current wealthy family.
He raised his head and said, “Check the Lou family again, especially if the medicinal herb business is clean.”
“I’ll check it out now.”
“You must be careful.”
“Yes.” Lin Yitian turned around and left.
Just as Gu Chengrui was about to get up and wash up, Lin Yifan came in and said, “Sir, I met someone when I went down to the toilet. He said that he had something to tell you.”
“Oh, did he say anything?”
“No, he just said that he wanted to see you. He didn’t say anything else.”
“Is that so? Let him come up.”
“You should go down and see him. He’s a beggar. I’m afraid…”
“Alright.” Gu Chengrui hesitated for a moment. Just in case, he turned around and took a pepper spray before following him out.
When they arrived outside the woodshed, Lin Yifan went in to take a look. After making sure that there were no accidents, he let him in and guarded the door.
Gu Chengrui had just entered when a person dressed like a beggar knelt on the ground with a thud. “Please, my lord. Please save this servant.”
Gu Chengrui was stunned when he heard the servant address him. “Get up. What’s the matter first?”
The beggar stood up and said, “My name is Ling’er. I used to be a servant girl at Lord Fang’s residence.
“This morning, my sister was killed, and I escaped.
“But now, the Fang family is looking for me everywhere. Marquis, please save me.”
“Why do you think I’ll save you?”
“But, aren’t you the Marquis?”
“It is true, but I am only in charge of the medical center. I don’t have the power to control the local officials, let alone their family affairs.”
“But, but your position is higher than his?”
“I don’t have the habit of using my power to oppress others.” Gu Chengrui shook his head.
Then, he deliberately waited for a moment before saying, “Tell me first.. Why did your sister die? Why are they chasing after you? Otherwise, why would I stop him from capturing his escaped slaves?”
