Let’s just forget about abortion pills and abortion prevention dicine.
As long as a person isn’t pregnant, taking them won’t cause much harm.
But the Golden Spear Unyielding Pill...
Chu Shun and the others couldn’t stop their mouths from twitching.
At such a young and vigorous age, they couldn’t bear hearing this term.
The Jianghu doctor took out the dicine bottles he was carrying.
Abortion pills and abortion prevention dicine sell well, but the Golden Spear Unyielding Pill doesn’t, so he rembered how many he sold.
He checked and confird, "It’s the Golden Spear Unyielding Pill."
Splutter!
Prince NanAn couldn’t hold back and sprayed a mouthful of tea.
The Heir of Marquis Beining, who was shaking with laughter, couldn’t dodge and got splashed in the face.
Seriously.
He even had the urge to destroy Prince NanAn.
Prince NanAn coughed and apologized, "I didn’t an to."
He really couldn’t hold it in.
He thought that not many n in the Capital City would take the Golden Spear Unyielding Pill, let alone won.
Xie Jingchen raised his hand and massaged his forehead.
He looked at the Jianghu doctor and asked, "Does your aphrodisiac have any side effects after use?"
Side effects?
"None," the Jianghu doctor said.
"My dicine absolutely leaves no side effects after use," the Jianghu doctor assured.
"Then why would it cause impotence?" Xie Jingchen asked.
The Jianghu doctor, "..."
Prince NanAn and others were stunned by Xie Jingchen’s words.
Wondering who in the Duke Mansion was rendered impotent.
The Jianghu doctor shook his head and said, "Impossible, my dicine would never have such side effects. If I sold such a wicked dicine, I would have been beaten to death long ago, how could I still be alive now?"
There’s so truth in those words.
"Is impotence treatable?" Xie Jingchen asked.
The Jianghu doctor shook his head.
These young masters are all noble people; inviting an Imperial Physician is no problem for them.
If the Imperial Physician can’t cure the patients, how could he, a Jianghu doctor, manage it?
"Send him out of the mansion," Xie Jingchen instructed the servant.
The Jianghu doctor breathed a sigh of relief, his back soaked with sweat.
The servant looked at Su Chong and said, "Young Master Zhou was selling paintings on the street and ran into so thugs collecting protection fees, and his painting stall was smashed."
"The painting stall was smashed?" Su Chong frowned deeply.
"Brother Zhou isn’t weak in martial arts, dealing with a few thugs should be no problem. How could he let them smash his painting stall, what trick was he up to?" Chu Shun said.
Su Chong chuckled, "Let’s wait for him to co back and question him properly."
"It’s getting late, ti for training."
Chu Shun and the others imdiately felt their whole bodies ache, wondering when such days would end.
On the street.
After strolling down one street, Marquis Dongxiang took Young Master Su to another street.
Standing on the street, Young Master Su looked around.
"Dad, why is this street so deserted?" Young Master Su asked.
Marquis Dongxiang frowned deeply.
This street is on his route to and from court, one of the most bustling streets in the Capital City.
Now, there’s surprisingly no one setting up stalls, how strange.
There was a shopkeeper standing at the door, sighing.
Young Master Su walked over and asked, "Why is this street so odd?"
The shopkeeper said, "People from the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion are collecting protection fees on this street, so the small vendors were all scared away."
Young Master Su, "..."
Could soone be trying to tarnish the reputation of the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion?
Marquis Dongxiang’s brows furrowed. "What’s really going on?"
The shopkeeper explained the whole story to Marquis Dongxiang, "We’re all running small businesses here; earning money to support a family isn’t easy. We can’t afford to provoke them, so we can only run."
Poor him, he couldn’t run even if he wanted to.
"Rest assured, the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion doesn’t collect protection fees," Young Master Su said.
"Are you so certain, young master?" the shopkeeper smiled.
"Of course, Marquis Dongxiang is my father," Young Master Su said.
The shopkeeper, "..."
Looking at Marquis Dongxiang, the shopkeeper’s face turned pale.
He wanted to kneel and beg for forgiveness.
But Marquis Dongxiang just hugged Young Master Su and rode away on his horse.
Duke Chong’s Mansion.
Hearing that the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion was collecting protection fees, the first thing Duke Chong did was have the Imperial Censorate write an impeachnt morandum.
Beneath the emperor’s feet, who dares to act so blatantly!
Let’s see how the Emperor will shield him this ti!
Having just finished giving orders, a man walked in and said, "Duke, there’s news about the Pension Silver."
"Speak."
The man reported, "We’ve found the roster of the Flying Tiger Army from back then, and sent people to inquire around. It turns out all the Flying Tiger soldiers’ families have found so silver, at least five taels at the minimum. The poorer the family, the more silver they found."
"But it’s not the court’s Pension Silver," the man said.
Duke Chong’s face was dark and gloomy.
It seems soone is indeed taking care of those Flying Tiger Army families.
Who could it be?
"Could it be Marquis Jibei?" the man speculated.
"Impossible."
"The Jibei Marquis Mansion doesn’t have the financial power for that!"
"Besides, this is a good deed. If it truly was Marquis Jibei, why would he need to hide it?" Duke Chong coldly said.
To support the families of 8,000 Flying Tiger soldiers for fifteen years.
Not to ntion the valor, but just the perseverance is enough to make Duke Chong feel alard.
Back when the entire Flying Tiger Army was wiped out, rumors swirled in the Capital City that they were betrayed.
If soone truly cared so deeply for the Flying Tiger Army’s matters, they would definitely investigate.
Duke Chong couldn’t help but feel a sense of unease.
"Go find out for . I don’t care what ans you use, find out who’s been secretly taking care of the Flying Tiger soldiers’ families!" Duke Chong’s eyes were cold as ice.
Marquis Dongxiang rode his horse, carrying Young Master Su.
Young Master Su thought they were going ho, and protested, "I don’t want to go back yet, I haven’t finished touring!"
Marquis Dongxiang ignored him.
He rode the horse straight to the Jibei Marquis Mansion.
Sitting on the horse, looking at the golden plaque of the Jibei Marquis Mansion shining under the sun.
Young Master Su’s mind flashed back to the look in Marquis Jibei’s eyes when he looked at him.
Such a kind and benevolent gaze, still morable.
The servant at the Jibei Marquis Mansion ca forward and asked, "Who is here?"
"Marquis Dongxiang," Young Master Su replied.
The servant, "..."
The servant’s welcoming smile froze, unsure of what to do.
A servant inside heard this and quickly shouted, "Quick, go tell the Marquis, Marquis Dongxiang is here!"
Young Master Su felt a bit weary.
Clearly, they were visiting with gifts.
Why did it feel like they were here to find fault?
Young Master Su turned his head, wanting to see if his father was carrying a big knife on his back.
Marquis Dongxiang glanced at him and knew what he was thinking, giving his head a tap.
Then he dismounted and entered the Jibei Marquis Mansion with Young Master Su.
The servant wanted to stop them but didn’t dare.
Wondering if perhaps Marquis Jibei had impeached Marquis Dongxiang, causing the Emperor to dock his salary for two years, and now he was here to seek trouble.
Of course, it wasn’t just the servant thinking this, but also others in the Jibei Marquis Mansion.
Today was a day off, and both the Old Master and Third Master were there; upon hearing Marquis Dongxiang had arrived, they all ca.
They watched him with wary eyes.
Marquis Jibei arrived leisurely late.
Marquis Dongxiang greeted him.
Marquis Jibei ignored him, or rather, didn’t have the ti to acknowledge him.
Marquis Jibei’s entire attention was on Young Master Su, his smile seed permanently fixed, lacking any severity.
Without further ado, he scooped up Young Master Su.
"Co, Grandpa will take you to play," Marquis Jibei said.
Still so kind...
Young Master Su laughed, "Calling you Grandpa is a huge benefit for my dad."
"Haha!" Marquis Jibei’s laughter was bold and loud.
Old Master Shen, "..."
Third Master Shen, "..."
Watching Marquis Jibei walk away with Su Yang, the two looked at each other.
"Since when did father like children so much?" Third Master Shen asked.
It’s fine if he likes children.
There are plenty of kids in the mansion.
But this is Marquis Dongxiang’s son.
