“Please, could you spare their lives?” Principal Zhou pleaded nervously.

Gu Chengrui t his gaze, his expression turning solemn, as if a dark cloud lood over him.

The sudden shift in his deanor startled Principal Zhou, who felt a surge of fear he hadn’t anticipated.

‘Him, harmless?’ he thought, bewildered. ‘How else could he have repeatedly eluded the remnants of the Hui Prince’s party and established dical centers under such scrutiny? We clearly underestimated him.’

Sensing Principal Zhou’s apprehension, Gu Chengrui softened his tone. “They won’t be executed, but the royal rchant title and the counterfeit dicine will be confiscated. The rest remains undecided.”

“That… that’s good,” stamred Principal Zhou, turning to leave.

“With three generations of imperial physicians in your family, I trust you won’t jeopardize your esteed reputation,” Gu Chengrui called after him.

Principal Zhou mumbled, “It won’t happen,” before scurrying out.

As he disappeared down the street, a servant erged from a nearby courtyard and rushed to the Li Manor, informing Imperial Physician Li about the conversation.

“So, I underestimated him,” Imperial Physician Li mused, swirling his teacup in contemplation.

He then instructed the servant, “Tell my second son to pay the fines. Reduce the dicine prices at our shop and dispose of all inferior quality products.” “Yes, master,” replied the servant, departing hastily.

After he left, Imperial Physician Li chuckled, “Marquis An Le, you certainly stirred the pot. Offending three imperial physicians in one go—I wonder how long you’ll last.”

Upon learning this, the Emperor’s face contorted in anger. He couldn’t believe they’d use the royal rchant’s reputation for such deceitful acts.

He swiftly stripped the Qian family of their title, ordering the execution of the patriarch and confiscating their entire estate. The family was forced into military service.

Principal Zhou, deed negligent in his oversight, was dismissed from his position and subjected to a year-long salary reduction by half.

This incident was a stark warning to the imperial physicians, who beca significantly more cautious in their conduct.

Both Imperial Physician Li and Imperial Physician Liu felt a lingering fear, grateful their offenses weren’t severe enough to warrant direct intervention from Gu Chengrui.

Returning ho, Imperial Physician Li sternly warned his shopkeepers against any future price gouging, although the Jishi dical Hall did raise their diagnosis fees by 20%.

The Emperor, rather than appointing a new royal rchant, entrusted the matter to the dical center.

As winter approached, Gu Chengxi married the fifth daughter of Consort An. Second Uncle Gu secured an independent courtyard for him on the West City-North City border, while Gu Chengrui and his wife gifted them a hundred acres of land.

By year’s end, Zhou Ying had learned of Gu Zheng’s successful revenge. His entire family, except his crippled father, was gone.

Now, his crippled father lived in a small farmhouse with an old caretaker.

Zhou Ying heard his report and asked, “So, what are you going to do next?”
