"Shopkeeper Lu."
An Ruowan motioned to Shopkeeper Lu to come behind her. She looked at Liu Bixin with her deep eyes, "I'm sorry, we don't sell the prescriptions here."
Hearing An Ruowan's rejection, Liu Bixin was instantly furious, "Do you know where this place is? This is the capital! This is my territory. Do you know who is behind me? How dare you refuse me?"
"I don't care who is behind you."
An Ruowan sneered and said, "If you want to get the prescription from me, and then sell it at a high price while the people are suffering from the epidemic, and earn such shady money, aren't you afraid of dying early?"
"Why the hell are you talking to our shopkeeper Liu?!"
The people following Liu Bixin were about to attack An Ruowan!
"Miss An, be careful!" Boss Lu quickly exclaimed!
An Ruowan raised his hand slightly, and the person rushing in front rolled his eyes, fell to the ground with a crash, and passed out completely!
Liu Bixin was frightened. He stood up and took a few steps back. He looked at An Ruowan in horror, "How dare you kill someone?!"
An Ruowan smiled mockingly at him and raised her hand gently, "If you don't get out, it will be your turn next!"
Sure enough, her words made Liu Bixin crawl out in fright, and his voice came from outside.
"Just wait for me! If you dare to be an enemy of me, you are an enemy of noble people. Just wait for death!"
After the people ran away, Shopkeeper Lu looked at the person lying outside the counter, "This... this person is not really dead, is he?"
An Huaiming came out of the backyard just after taking the medicine. When he saw the person lying on the ground, he was also shocked, "This..."
"Go and throw this person outside." An Ruowan said calmly.
An Huaiming was obedient. After hearing what An Ruowan said, he dragged him out directly.
"Shopkeeper Lu, I've thought about it." An Ruowan handed the prescription written on the table to the person next to her.
"Let the prescription be made public today so that those who covet this prescription will have no chance of profit!"
Shopkeeper Lu looked a little worried, "Miss An, you don't know that the person behind Liu Bixin is very powerful. He seems to be someone in the imperial city... There is really no need for me to offend them."
"I don't believe that the people behind him are abandoning the lives of the people and dare to support him at this time."
An Huaiming clapped his hands and came in from outside, "The people have been thrown out. Something seems to have happened over there in the western suburbs. Many people have gone there."
An Ruowan put the banknote in Shopkeeper Lu's hand, "Shopkeeper, you go hide outside the capital first and come back when the epidemic is gone."
Shopkeeper Lu was stunned for a moment, and just as he was about to refuse, An Ruowan put the bank note in his hand, "Now that the capital is staring at this place with eager eyes, the shopkeeper must go out to take shelter from the wind."
"And if today's prescription is posted, it will be an enemy of that person. So I have offended him. If he can't embarrass me, he will definitely embarrass you, the shopkeeper."
Unexpectedly, An Ruowan would be so attentive. Shopkeeper Lu clenched the banknote in his hand and said, "Miss An, don't worry. After this matter is over, Lu will definitely follow Miss An's lead when he returns to the capital!"
"It's getting late. Shopkeeper Lu goes back to his house to pack his things. Let's go out of the city when it gets dark."
"Okay, please be more careful, Miss An!"
After An Huaiming came in, he was confused and asked An Ruowan without knowing why, "What's wrong? Is something going to happen?"
"Nothing." An Ruowan looked at him, "You said something happened in the western suburbs. What happened?"
"Oh, I asked someone to inquire, and I heard that more than a dozen corpses were fished out of the river in the western suburbs of the city within a few days! There is chaos over there."
An Ruowan suddenly stood up in surprise and uncertainty!
The river in the western suburbs? !
An Huaiming was frightened by An Ruowan's actions, "What...what's wrong?"
"Take the colorful ring and follow me to the western suburbs immediately!"
When we arrived at the western suburbs, there was already a chaos by the city river. Even if there were people from the government surrounding it, the common people were all surrounding in a circle outside!
"Why are there so many people?" An Huaiming looked shocked.
An Ruowan said nothing, walked through the crowd in silence, and saw the scene in Chenghe.
More than a dozen corpses were salvaged from the shore, and there were still government officials in Hanoi salvaging the remaining corpses from the river.
Seeing the death of these people, An Ruowan felt deeply that something was wrong!
"Stay here and don't move." An Ruowan said to the two people behind him, and then moved forward.
But before he could reach the body, someone from the Yamen raised his hand and stopped him, "What are you doing!"
"Can you let me see the body inside?" An Ruowan lied seriously, "I am the doctor of Huichun Hall."
The yamen officer didn't seem to expect that a woman like her was actually a doctor. He looked her up and down and frowned, "Go, go, why is a woman here to join in the fun!"
An Ruowan took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and said, "Please be accommodating."
Seeing the silver, the officer's expression immediately changed. He coughed lightly, took the silver and put down his hand, "Look quickly, don't waste time."
"Thank you, sir."
The smile on An Ruowan's face completely disappeared from her face when she saw these signs of corpses!
The swollen faces of the corpses were caused by being soaked in water for many days, but these corpses were all people infected with the disease!
After An Ruowan squatted down, he took out a handkerchief from his sleeve, wrapped it around his fingers, and opened their sleeves to see the symptoms of various diseases on their bodies.
But to my surprise, I discovered that these people all had plum blossom patterns tattooed on their inner arms!
This was more like the totem of an organization. An Ruowan was secretly shocked. This was definitely not a coincidence!
Secretly remembering the appearance of plum blossoms, An Ruowan stood up and walked out. She felt a little trembling all over.
As he got on the carriage back to the city, An Huaiming wondered, "Even if the disease cannot be cured, there is no need for so many people to throw themselves into the river together, right?"
"This is not a drowning in the river, but someone poisoning, causing an epidemic in this city."
As soon as An Ruowan said these words, the carriage fell into silence.
Before An Huaiming could react, he just looked at An Ruowan blankly, "This...how is this possible!"
"The water from the river in the western suburbs has been channeled into the capital. If this water is contaminated by people infected with the epidemic and is drunk by people in the capital, then a large number of people in the capital will be infected with the epidemic!"
Is it possible that the epidemic in the previous life...was it possible that the epidemic was intentional?
An Ruowan's fingertips felt cold and she said to Caihuan and An Huaiming, "You go to Prince Rong's Mansion to deliver a message to the prince."
"What about you?" An Huaiming asked An Ruowan, "Do you want to go back to Huichun Hall?"
"No."
An Ruowan shook his head, "I can't go back to Huichun Hall. I'm going to the mountains outside the city to catch some gold-winged insects and bring them back."
"Then I'll go with you!" An Huaiming said immediately, fearing that something might happen to An Ruowan.
