Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations

The city guard couldnt help but be surprised. Why was the City Lord drunk? What was the girl still here fine and well? And she wasnt leaving, she actually wanted to stay here?

What are you still doing here? Feng Jiu frowned and glanced at him coldly.

Yes. The city guard responded and helped the City Lord to the back courtyard with the help of the person next to him.

Feng Jiu walked out and called out to Old White with her spirit intent and called it over. Then she and the horse walked out the main entrance and into the street.

She came to a teahouse and ordered a pot of tea and a few refreshments after she sat down. When the waiter was about to leave, she stopped him: Waiter, I would like to ask you something.

!!

The waiter was stunned for a moment and asked: What would Young Miss like to inquire about?

Feng Jiu took out two gold coins and put them on the table, and said: I want to know how many family clans there are in the city. Which of these family clans has the best customs? Tell me what I want to know in detail, and the two gold coins are yours.

The waiter couldnt help but be overjoyed. This is something that everyone in the city knew, it was not a secret. So, he told Feng Jiu about the family clans in the city.

If you want to know which family clan has the best customs, then it would have to be the Hong Family. However, Senior Patriarch Hong fell ill suddenly last month and has been bedridden. Because of this, several other family clans wanted to use this opportunity to squeeze the Hong Family out of the top rank family clans. If it hadnt been because of Patriarch Hong holding on, the Hong Family would have been squeezed out to be a third rate family by the other family clans.

After she listened to this, she gestured for him to retreat.

Upon seeing this, the waiter stepped forward and retrieved the two gold coins and thanked her before he retreated.

She sat in the teahouse for a while. She drank tea and ate some refreshments, then she left. She went to a few other places and inquired, and all that was said, was the same as what the waiter had said. After that, she took Old White to the Hong Family.

Killing the City Lord would only lead to chaos. If she wanted to put things right once and for all, she had to find someone who could bear the burden. The Hong Family was undoubtedly the best choice.

When Feng Jiu came to the main entrance of the Hong Family, the guard saw her approaching and asked: Who is Young Miss looking for?

I am looking for your Patriarch. Feng Jiu said, and looked at the two guards straight in their eyes. Although they had surprise in their eyes, they didnt dare to act recklessly.

What is Young Miss name? And what business do you have with our Patriarch? The guard asked. They had to ask for the reason before they could determine whether they would go inside and report this. After all, they couldnt just let in any unknown person who came here just because they wanted to see their Patriarch.

Upon hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled and said: I heard that your Old Patriarch has fallen ill? I am proficient in medicine, so I came to take a look.

The two guards looked at each other when they heard this, then after a moment, one of them walked inside quickly to report the matter.

Inside the Hong Manor, Patriarch Hong had brought several doctors into the courtyard where his Father was, when he heard the steward walking over quickly and whispering in his ear.

A woman? Patriarch Hong frowned slightly: Even if a woman knew about medicine, how can she be proficient? Tell her to leave!

Recently, because his Father had taken ill, many people who claimed to know medicine had come to their Manor. But after repeated disappointments, he didnt believe them anymore. Whats more, he had invited several famous doctors especially from other places in hopes that one of them could cure his Fathers disease.
