Chapter 591: Chapter 602 Yue Rujing to the Rescue

"What medicine?" Master Li raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming grave.

Gu Youyou took out a bottle of medicine, and immediately someone took it from her hand and handed it to Master Li on the high platform.

Master Li did not understand medical skills, he simply glanced at it briefly, then set it aside.

"What illness does he have? Why must he use the medicine you use?"

"Replying to Master, since I was young, my health has been poor, and I have always relied on medicine to sustain my life. This medicine was developed by me over many years, specifically to treat my illness. And that person you mentioned, by a stroke of luck, has the same illness as I do, so he only buys medicine from me."

Master Li immediately seized the key point, asking somewhat excitedly, "Do you mean to say that he will have to buy medicine from you again?"

Gu Youyou candidly said, "There’s no need for that, I gave him the prescription."

These words infuriated Master Li so much he almost fell off his stool, exclaiming, "How could you give him the prescription? You’re really generous."

Gu Youyou spoke indifferently, "He paid silver for his treatment, isn’t it normal for me to give him medicine and the prescription?"

Master Li: "...Indeed, what you say is logical, but..." But what? He was at a loss for words.

Who decreed that doctors cannot give patients their prescriptions? If they don’t give out the prescriptions, how can the patients get their medicine prepared?

Master Li, frustrated and in pain, said to someone standing by, "Forget it, give this medicine to the Imperial Medical Bureau, and let’s find out what it actually is."

Having said this, he then addressed Gu Youyou, "Doctor Gu, I must trouble you to wait here a while longer. Regarding the illness he has contracted, I do not understand, and you still need to explain it to the Imperial Physician."

Gu Youyou did not refuse, nor could she refuse, and was led to the neighboring room to wait.

"Next!"

This time, quite a few people had been caught, more than twenty.

Anyone with evidence of having seen Jin Ziyuan had been captured and interrogated one by one.

Others weren’t as fortunate as Gu Youyou and Shopkeeper Hu; even a slight inconsistency in their accounts led to a good beating and a toss into jail.

Shopkeeper Hu was of a considerable age and had never been to jail before; he was quite frightened.

"Doctor Gu, we won’t have any trouble, will we?"

Gu Youyou gave him a comforting smile and said, "Don’t worry, reinforcement will arrive soon."

"But that illness... what exactly does he have, that he insists on seeking treatment only from Doctor Gu?"

That illness... Gu Youyou smiled bitterly; it was an unmentionable disease, and it would be terrible once the Imperial Physician arrived. She only hoped that Yue Rujing and her uncle could come and save the situation sooner.

Her rescuers arrived as if on cue; just as Gu Youyou was thinking this, the door was opened.

"Princely Heir!" Shopkeeper Hu, who was brought from Lingnan by Yue Rujing, saw Yue Rujing and burst into tears.

Yue Rujing nodded at him, then asked Gu Youyou, "Did they make things difficult for you?"

Gu Youyou chuckled dryly and shook her head, saying, "They took my medicine."

Lin Xingyi came in from behind and inquired, "What medicine?"

Gu Youyou knelt on one knee as a sign of respect and replied, "Uncle, it’s the medicine Youyou usually takes."

"Why would they take the medicine you usually use?" Lin Xingyi did not know the reason.

On the other side, Yue Rujing had already understood.

"Is it him?"

Gu Youyou nodded gently.

Yue Rujing closed her eyes and only said, "You’ve been foolish."

On Lin Xingyi’s end, he was even more confused by their enigmatic conversation.

After pondering for a moment, Yue Rujing said, "Don’t talk later, I’ll do the talking."

After finishing, she led Gu Youyou and Shopkeeper Hu out.

Facing Master Li, Yue Rujing said playfully, "Master Li, may I take them away now?"
