Chapter One Hundred: Overpowering with Intelligence

  "It's out! It's out! Someone has come out of the house!"

  The door was about to open, and Liu Rong heard a sound coming from outside the house, and couldn't help but look up in confusion.

  "Look, this young girl is so flustered and her face is so unsightly, I'm afraid we've really guessed it!""I said it, a little girl of such a young age, how could she possibly cure the illness that none of us can treat? If this gets out, wouldn't it be a huge joke?"

  "It's a pity, Lord Zhang's good son is gone because of this swindler." But the more he spoke, the less it sounded like the truth, and even attributed the death of someone who was bound to die to Liu Rong.

  "What about Master Zhang? Why doesn't he come out? Is it because the young master has left and he's so bored that he can't even take revenge, to the point where he can't even send this chatty little maid to see the officials?" The doctor who was scolded by Liu Rong spoke up at the right time.

  "Even if Master Zhang doesn't have the energy to send this swindler to the government office, we can't just stand by and do nothing. Let's take her there ourselves!" Someone who delights in stirring up trouble chimed in.

  Among this group of doctors, several unfamiliar faces had unknowingly mixed in, while Qin Xue and Miss Chen, who had been waiting at the door, were nowhere to be seen.

  On the carriage, Miss Chen couldn't help but speak up: "Can we just let those few people go and why can't we ourselves directly send Liu Rong to see the government official?"

  Qin Xue smiled slightly: "As long as they are here, we can just watch. It's not beautiful if we take action ourselves. Let these people do it, and it's perfect for Liu Rong to die without a place to be buried. And we only need to watch."

  Qin Xue said with a slight pause, looking at Miss Chen Er: "Don't think that everything can be solved by taking action yourself, it's best to watch from the shore and let the fire burn itself out!"

  "Believe it or not, tomorrow the whole city will be abuzz with the news that the third miss of Wendinghou Mansion has gone mad due to her future brother-in-law's cancellation of their engagement and his subsequent death!"

  Qin Xue slightly curled up the corners of her mouth. She slowly leaned against the carriage wall, and the maid beside her hurriedly took out a small blanket to cover Qin Xue's legs.

  Liu Rong and Dong Er walked out of the house, only to see a group of people crowding around them. What's more, some of them were even so rude as to reach out their hands to grab her. This behavior was not like that of ancient times where men and women did not make physical contact with each other. It seemed that these people were even more crazy than those in modern times who liked to show off.

  Luckily, Zhang's steward acted quickly and stopped a few people: "What are you doing?"

  "It's natural for your family's old master to send this swindler who brought ruin to your family's young master to the authorities!"

  "You're so ungrateful! We're trying to help you, and yet you won't even let us through. Let me take this deceitful girl to see the authorities!"

  "Halt! Who dares to hurt the Third Miss of the Wen Ding Hou Mansion? Today, we will settle the score with the Zhang family!" Just as a group of people were saying this and were about to break through the defense line of the Zhang family's steward, they heard a stern rebuke coming from behind Rong. They saw Zhang Xueshi standing behind Rong with an unpleasant expression on his face.

  Don't look at him as just a scholar, his face is stern and his eyes are filled with anger. He actually has an air of dignity and righteousness about him, which makes this group of people who were trying to bully Liu Rong dare not take another step forward!

  "Director Zhang, we're doing this for your own good!" Someone in the crowd couldn't help but speak up: "This is the swindler who got your son killed!"

  "Shut up! Who said that Liu's daughter harmed my Lin'er? My Lin'er is now safe and sound, lying in the house! It was Miss Liu who saved my son!" Zhang Xueshi furrowed his brow, looking at everyone loudly.

  The doctors were taken aback and stopped in their tracks, some even looking at each other in dismay.

  "Haven't you heard what our master said? Hurry up and disperse!" Manager Zhang chimed in from the side.

  Liu Rong furrowed her brow slightly and stopped Zhang Zongguan: "Hold on!"

  "What's wrong? Liu Zongnu?" Zhang Xueshi looked at Liu Rong with slight puzzlement, who was stopping him from driving these people away.

  Liu Rong spoke to Zhang Xue Shi, "Keep all these people here. Among them, there are unfamiliar faces, and they're not the same doctors who were helping with the patient in the house earlier! There must be some problem here."

  Someone among the doctors had a slight change in complexion and a slight pause in movement.

  "Yú Róng?" Left Tingxuan couldn't help but ask with some confusion as he followed out and saw Yú Róng in such high spirits.

  "Previously, the Wen Dinghou Mansion had spread so many rumors. Why should the calm and waiting Daifu be so collectively indignant? There must be some problem in between. It's very likely that someone is stirring up trouble, blocking these people, I'd like to see who is stepping on me, not letting go!"

  Liu Rong faced Zuo Tingxuan and spoke, then turned her head to look at the group of doctors. She instructed Zhang's family steward beside her: "Surround these people, only those who have reported their identity and can answer a simple question about Liu Lao's illness treatment method can leave. Those who cannot do so are rumormongers who harm people, capture them and send them to Shuntian Fu!"

  "I believe Lord Zuo will definitely have a way to get these people to speak the truth."

  As soon as Liu Rong's words fell, the faces of most doctors instantly turned bad, and those who were obviously unable to hold their breath quietly retreated, retreating to a certain extent, turning around and wanting to escape, but happened to be blocked by Yongcheng County Lord's guard!

  Liu Rong looked at the people who had been caught and smiled: "Alright, doctors can leave now. Without even investigating, these rumor spreaders have already exposed themselves."

  A series of changes and twists left everyone present stunned, those old doctors looked at Liu Rong with eyes wide with wonder, this young girl not only had extraordinary medical skills at such a young age, but also grasped human psychology so well.

  It's a pity to be born as a woman. If she were a man, she would definitely be the pillar of a family!

  Liu Rong didn't think that much, the tense emotions had been relaxed because of doing this thing, and the smile on her face became radiant.

  "Liurong, I didn't expect that you are not only good at medicine, but also have such a great memory." The Princess of Yongcheng couldn't help but sigh as she looked at the captured people.

  Liu Rong smiled: "I'm not good at remembering faces, I just felt that this group of people were ganging up on me and it didn't feel right, so I tricked them a bit. I didn't expect that among these doctors, there really was someone who wasn't right!"

  "But later on, I'll have to rely on Lord Zuo to help me investigate the person behind this!" Liu Rong said, looking at Zuo Tingxuan.

  Zuo Tingxuan smiled: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it. Don't you trust me?"

  Liu Rong couldn't help but shake her head, coolly opening her mouth: "Even if I handed it over to you, I wouldn't feel at ease. A certain someone almost got me framed in the Weibei Marquis's estate last time!"

  Zuo Tingxuan couldn't help but look embarrassed: "You're so petty, remembering such a small thing for so long."

  "Haven't you heard that it's hard to raise women and little people in this world?" Liu Rong smiled slightly, taking Dong Er with her as she walked forward.

  Zuo Tingxuan was slightly stunned, gazing at Liu Rong's back as she walked further and further away.

  Zhang Xueshi looked at Zuo Tingxuan's expression and couldn't help but smile knowingly, then had the Zhang family manager support him as he followed Liu Rong out, for there was still one thing he hadn't told Third Young Mistress Liu.

  The marriage of Lord Wen's household, he won't back down!

  The Wen Dinghou Fu can raise a daughter like Liu Rong, and it's likely that their other daughters are also excellent.

  Liu Rong did not expect that after all the commotion, she would end up being the happiest person to marry out of the Wen Ding Hou Fu. Her older sister Liu Yun later married into the Zhang family and everyone in the household treated her extremely well, even her mother-in-law never gave her a hard time. It can be said that among all the daughters of the Wen Ding Hou Fu, she was the one who had the happiest marriage.

  But it turned out that the third miss of the Grand Preceptor's mansion, Qin Xue, had been waiting for Liu Rong to become infamous, but instead she waited until evening when her father, the Grand Preceptor, was going to lock her up. From now on, she would not be allowed to go out again, because just the night before, Shun Tian Fu had sent a few people to the Grand Preceptor's mansion.

  All the way back to the mansion, Dong Er was still a bit dizzy from the excitement and stimulation of the day's events. In a daze, he looked at Liu Rong and said: "Miss, are you a goddess who fell from heaven, specially sent to save those people that others can't?"

  "Pfft!" Liu Rong couldn't help but laugh: "You silly girl, what are you thinking? I'm just an ordinary person. If I had any magical powers, wouldn't I have already taken my mother and you away from the Wen Ding Hou Mansion long ago? Do we still need to do anything?"

  Dong Er shook her head and looked at Liu Rong firmly: "Miss will definitely save Zhang Xueshi's son, regardless of whether there is a request from Old Master Hou or not."

  "Oh? Not very sure?" Liu Rong couldn't help but ask.

  "In any case, I'm sure that Miss will definitely save us, even if others won't!" Dong Er said as she quickly stepped forward to lead the way.

  She's no ordinary girl, she's the most formidable and kind-hearted doctor under the sky!

  Liu Rong looked at Dong Er's back and couldn't help but shake her head slightly. She was just one of the ordinary people in this world.

  She just wanted to leave the Wendinghou Mansion, just wanted to make a prelude for her future departure from the Wendinghou Mansion with Clock Auntie, wanted to give Clock Auntie a support when she left the Wendinghou Mansion, wanted to wholeheartedly provide a good home for her Donger in the future, wanted to save some people, and wanted to fight for women's rights occasionally.

  That night was uneventful, and the next morning, the Zhang family sent two invitations to the Wendinghou Mansion. One was for Liu Rong, informing her that the young master of the Zhang family had woken up the previous night, which meant he had passed the critical period she mentioned, and also hoped that Liu Rong would come again to take a look at the young master's condition.

  Another one is for the old marquis of Wendinghou Mansion, and it's now lying on the desk in the study of the old marquis of Wendinghou Mansion.

  This is a solemn promise from Zhang Fu that he will not back out of the engagement!

  The old master sat in the armchair staring at the letter for a long time before calling in his longtime butler.

  "Old Master?" Seeing Old Master Hou calling him in, yet remaining silent, the old steward couldn't help but speak up to remind him.

  Old Master Hou was taken aback and ordered: "Go tell Madame that she should prepare now. Today, we will send Third Miss to move out of the Wendinghou Mansion."

  The old steward hesitated slightly, looking at Old Master Hou and couldn't help but hesitate: "Master..."

  "No need to say more, just go and get it done quickly."

  The old man couldn't help but shake his head and turn to walk away, not far from the house, he heard a faint sigh coming from inside.
