The city guard was slightly surprised. How could the city lord be drunk? And the girl was still here? And she didn't leave, and even said she wanted to stay here
"What are you still standing there for?" Fengjiu frowned and glanced at him coldly.
"Yes, yes." The city guard responded, and together with the person next to him, he helped the city lord up and sent him to the backyard.
Fengjiu walked out and called out to Lao Bai with her spiritual sense, asking it to come over. Then, the man and the horse walked out of the gate and went to the street.
She came to a teahouse and sat down, ordered a pot of tea and some snacks, and when the waiter was about to leave, she called him: "Waiter, I want to ask you something."
The waiter was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What do you want to know, young lady?"
Feng Jiu took out two gold coins and placed them on the table, saying, "I want to know how many families there are in this city? Among these families, which family has the best family tradition? Tell me what I want to know in detail, and these gold coins will be yours."
The waiter was delighted when he heard this. This was something that everyone in the city knew about, so it was not really a secret. So, he told Fengjiu a general idea of each family in the city.
"If we talk about the family with the best tradition, it must be the Hong family. However, the old man of the Hong family suddenly fell ill last month and was unable to move. Because of this, several other families secretly wanted to take this opportunity to squeeze the Hong family out of the ranks of the major families. If it weren't for the head of the Hong family supporting the Hong family, it would have been squeezed out by the other families and become a third-rate small family."
Hearing this, he gestured for him to leave.
Upon seeing this, the waiter stepped forward, took the two gold coins, said thank you, and then left.
She sat in the teahouse for a while, drank a cup of tea and ate some snacks before leaving. She went to other places and asked around, and all she got was the same as what the waiter said. As soon as she entered, she took Lao Bai to the Hong family.
Killing the city lord directly would only cause chaos. If one wants to solve the problem once and for all, the best way is to find someone who can shoulder the burden. The Hong family is undoubtedly the best choice.
When Feng Jiu arrived at the gate of the Hong family, the guard guarding the gate saw her approaching and asked, "Who are you looking for, young lady?"
"Looking for your family master." Feng Jiu said, and saw that the two guards looked at her with a straight face. Even though there was amazement in their eyes when they looked at her, they did not dare to look at her presumptuously.
"What's your name, young lady? What do you want to see our master for?" the guard asked. They had to find out the reason before they could be sure whether they could go in and report. After all, it wasn't just some unknown person who came. They could see their master whenever they wanted.
Hearing this, Feng Jiu smiled and said, "I heard that your old master from the Hong family is ill? I am proficient in medicine, so I came to take a look."
Hearing this, the two guards looked at each other and said, "Wait a moment." One of them walked quickly inside and passed the message.
In the Hong Mansion, the head of the Hong family was leading several doctors into the yard where his father was, when he heard the housekeeper walking quickly towards him and whispering something in his ear.
"A woman?" The head of the Hong family frowned slightly. "Even if a woman knows the art of medicine, how proficient can she be? Let her leave!"
Because of his father's illness recently, many people who claimed to know medical skills came to his house, but after being disappointed again and again, he no longer believed in ordinary people. What's more, he specially invited several famous doctors from other places, just hoping that one of them could cure his father's illness.
