"Your Highness, could it be that you've taken the wrong path?!" An underling asked in confusion. They had been walking along this road for a long time. How come I haven't seen the village the woodcutter was talking about?

"I did go the wrong way. All of you, get ready." The people around Yu Lingjing weren't all freeloaders. They understood what their master meant and put their hands on their weapons, ready to act.

Yu Lingjing sat on his horse and looked at the imperial carriage behind him. Some people immediately understood what he meant. This doctor couldn't be harmed in any way.

Yu Ling Jing looked around, and then suddenly jumped down from his horse. While he was in the air, he had already drawn his sword, and everyone else had also pulled out their weapons. There was a friction sound, which added to the somber atmosphere of the forest.

The black-clothed men hiding in the forest didn't try to conceal themselves anymore. The twenty or so people immediately surrounded Yu Lingjing and the others. Yu Ling Jing swept a glance around, and couldn't help but let out a sneer. It seemed that nephew of his really didn't place him in his eyes. Yu Ling Jing's sword swung out, and the black clad man in front of him fell to the ground before he could even react.

"Do it." A man who seemed to be the leader of the men in black shouted.

For a time, a sword light flashed. The cold moonlight shone on the sword, bringing about waves of chilliness.

The sound of metal colliding with metal echoed in the night sky. It was as if the only sound in the entire world was the sound of metal slicing through flesh and blood. None of the imperial physicians in the carriage dared to make a sound. It was as if the black-clothed man would kill whoever got angry at him.

But after a while, there was no longer any sound outside. The imperial physicians were all taken aback. One of them lifted the carriage's curtain boldly, only to see Yu Lingjing standing behind the carriage, looking at his subordinates with a face full of admiration, before collapsing to the ground.

It turned out that after the group of black-clad men had attacked them, Yu Ling Jing's underlings had quickly realized that their target was only Yu Ling Jing. Yu Ling Jing then made a hand gesture for them to move to the side. It was clear that he wanted them to come alone. Although he didn't understand, he didn't dare to disobey him. Therefore, everyone watched as Yu Ling Jing was like an Asura, every move he made was effective. Every strike was a life. The other side was clearly a well-trained assassin, but to Yu Ling Jing, he was nothing at all. Some of his subordinates had fought alongside him, but this was the first time they had seen him display such power. It had to be said that their master really did have the aura of the supreme ruler of heaven and earth.

Yu Ling Jing looked at the dark forest. A gust of cold wind blew through, and the forest was once again filled with rustling sounds. He just needed to leave a live one for him to go back and report. Otherwise, this game would be too boring.

Yu Lingjing walked in front of his horse and stroked its mane as if to comfort it. However, no matter what, the horse couldn't run. After all, it had received a fright and it would be very lucky if it didn't run. Yu Ling Jing pulled his horse and walked forward step by step. He liked black clothes, and because of the amount of blood, no one could tell.

The group looked at each other for a moment before all following. Fortunately, the imperial physicians' carriage was right behind them, so it didn't have much of an impact. Otherwise, it'd really be a big problem.

"The imperial government has already sent someone, but he's still a big shot. Do you want to know who he is?" The shadow of the official's office was already on the pillar. A pair of beady eyes were smiling brightly like the stars in the sky.

"Not interested." After spending these few days together, he discovered that the official's aura was not as bad as she had imagined. Therefore, he was now willing to pay attention to her.

"When he comes tomorrow, you'll be interested in someone even more good-looking than me." The official laughed loudly. Long time no see.

Qi Dian County couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Other than Yu Ling Jing, who else could be more beautiful than an official.

"We've finally arrived." After a few days of riding on horseback, they finally arrived at the disaster area. It could be said that it was quite strange that, other than the day of the attack, they did not encounter any sort of danger and even walked on the official road, making it much easier for them to walk on it.

Yu Ling Jing looked at the lifeless house and couldn't help but frown. How could this be? This was more serious than he had imagined.

"Welcome, your highness. Your highness is here to welcome you. If I am not able to welcome you, your highness, please forgive me." The magistrate stood in front of Yu Lingjing with a fawning expression, the fawning in his heart was lost on his face. Yu Ling Jing looked at him and frowned even harder. The commoners here were trapped in the middle of water and fire, stepping on their parents would make them look like they had eaten enough.

"Your Highness, I have prepared a banquet at home, I hope that Your Highness can take a seat." The magistrate continued to speak. If he were to hear this, he would probably say, "You dog of a government official, why is it that you're treating me to food? With so much money, why don't you just send someone else to suffer?" However, at this moment, the shadow official was sleeping soundly on the bed. He naturally already knew that Yu Lingjing had returned today, but he also knew that the Shangguan family's methods were much more complex than those of other families.

"Lead the way." Yu Lingjing finally opened her mouth. He hated this kind of social interaction, but it was inevitable. Besides, he didn't have any problems traveling all the way, but they were all old bones and couldn't take it anymore. There was no way for him to take care of the patients in this state, and he needed to understand some things from the county magistrate.

"What the hell is going on here?" Yu Lingjing looked at the dishes on the table, but didn't have any appetite.

"Reporting to Your Highness, this calamity started two months ago." The county magistrate smiled as he spoke at a steady pace.

Two months! So much time had passed. And yet, the Imperial Court only found out the truth now? Yu Lingjing slammed the table. The magistrate hurriedly explained, "At that time, only a few people suffered from the same disease. Everyone thought it was an ordinary illness, so not many people cared." "However, who would've thought that the epidemic situation would suddenly spread. This lowly official is completely powerless." The county magistrate was submissive as he spoke, his eyes like a mouse's as they rolled in circles.

"Helpless? Do you really think of a way? " A cold light flashed through Yu Ling Jing's eyes.

"This official has been wronged. I had reported the calamity to the Imperial Court long ago, but the Imperial Court did not react. I really do not know what to do. During this period of time, this official has also been terrified." The magistrate trembled in response to Yu Ling Jing's gaze.

"Each of you is more than the other, yet you are trying to shirk responsibility. Are you doing worse than the other? "Why do I feel like you're better off than anyone else?" Yu Lingjing glanced at the dishes on the table. The county magistrate was greatly alarmed. This was really eating chicken until it turned into rice.

"This official knows that he was wrong. But the two girls who came a while ago helped a lot. " The magistrate weakly said.

"Miss?"

"As if, those two girls were really good-looking, one of them even had great medical skills. "And then the young master of the Shangguan family came and gave him a lot of financial support. The epidemic situation was finally under control." As the magistrate spoke, he glanced at Yu Ling Jing and saw that his complexion seemed to have improved. He couldn't help but secretly sigh in relief.

"Is the owner still here?" Yu Lingjing asked.

"Yes, he has a good relationship with those two girls." As the magistrate spoke, the corners of his mouth curved into a vulgar smile.

"Oh, then where are they?"

"I say, girl, can you stop being so stern with me? How have I offended you?" The official called out loudly, but his tone was full of ridicule.

"You've already offended me." He didn't even raise his head. On the other hand, Ruan Qing Yan showed a nonchalant expression.

Yu Lingjing stood in the doorway, a dark look on her face. This was the relationship between the county magistrate and her words were not bad? And why was Qi Wan County here? And who was that girl with good medical skills?

"Aiyo, our wargod is here!" The shadow of the official's house twisted and turned like a bawd in a brothel as he walked towards Yu Lingjing. Yu Lingjing looked at him with disdain, but didn't say anything. He had known the officials for many years and was used to his leftist side. When the officials saw this, they felt bored and stood up straight. Then, they pinched their throats and said, "Ladies, a guest is coming." Ruan Qingyan's hand that was fanning her fan suddenly stopped. It really did seem like she was releasing poison, that fellow who was so poisonous.

Yu Ling Jing avoided the shadow of the official and entered the house, how could Qi Wanli disappear in such a short time?

"What about that girl who doesn't know her place? She didn't even come to meet him when a big shot came to pick him up?" The shadow of the official was so shocked by the role of the bawd that he could not extricate himself. Ruan Qingyan threw the fan and it flew straight towards the official's store, accompanied by the sound of something tearing through the air. The shadow of the pavilion master flashed as he dodged to the side. Ruan Qingyan clapped her hands and stood up straight.

"He went to take care of the patients behind him." Ruan Qingyan seemed to be answering the question from the official, but her eyes were fixated on Yu Lingjing. This was the person his good friend was going to marry, with an extraordinary aura and unfathomable inner strength. Besides that, he was still worthy of his sister. If someone were to hear this monologue within his heart, it was unknown how much blood they would cough up. The young brother of the emperor, the wargod of his generation, was actually of a bullshit identity. What was this girl thinking?

"I'll go find him." As he spoke, he leisurely walked towards the back. Yu Ling Jing also followed.

"What are you doing?" The official felt that it was strange. Shouldn't Yu Lingjing be doing some proper work? Why are you following him?

"Look at your girl." Yu Lingjing said seriously. The shadow of the official stopped. Was the sun rising from the west? Yu Lingjing was actually joking. At this moment, the official, Sikong Ying, really wanted to announce this to the world. Yu Ling Jing also had a sense of humor.

"My girl is there."

Yu Ling Jing looked at the direction the official pointed at, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
