You Two Are a Perfect Match, a Match Made in Heaven

Zhou Wanwan and Chen Ankang were both eating sunflower seeds. Chen Ankang shook his head and said, "Whether they divorce or not, they're destined to become a laughing stock."

Zhou Wanwan also laughed and said, "Don't you think they look like a married couple? I think they definitely won't get a divorce."

Chen Ankang thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, they look very much like a married couple."

Lin Xi and Huo Lingchuan spotted them, and Huo Lingchuan shouted loudly:

"Chen Ankang, are you ever going to stop? Are you deliberately trying to make a fool of myself?"

"You dare come down here? Do you believe I'll kill you?"

Chen Ankang rolled his eyes and said:

"What makes you think you can steal someone else's bride?"

You need to look at yourself; do you even deserve it?

Now that you've married Lin Xi, you should live a good life. You two are a perfect match, a match made in heaven.

Huo Lingchuan drew his one-meter-long broadsword and shouted, "I'm going to kill you today!"

Chen Ankang and Zhou Wanwan then slowly walked back.

They had only gone halfway when Zheng Yuanbao rushed over and said, "Master, our pharmacy is in trouble. They say all the herbs in the pharmacy are fake, and it has been shut down."

When Zhou Wanwan arrived at the Hundred Herbs Hall, she saw a group of people gathered at the entrance, discussing. "They're saying someone died from taking medicine from the Hundred Herbs Hall! This is terrible."

"This must have been seized by the government, right? Oh dear! The medicines at the Hundred Herbs Hall are usually very cheap, I never imagined they were all fake. They've really lost their conscience."

"I actually think the medicines from the Hundred Herbs Hall are quite effective. When I have a cold and fever, I come to the Hundred Herbs Hall and get a few pills, and they always cure me."

"They're being targeted. Who told Hundred Herbs Hall's medicines to be so cheap?"

"That's a real shame. The key question is, who owns Hundred Herbs Hall? This time someone died from eating there; that owner is going to be in big trouble!"

Zheng Yuanbao looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "Master, you can't accept this. Otherwise, I'll go! At worst, it's just a matter of life and death."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Zheng Yuanbao and said:

"That's not the case. Let's see what's going on first."

There must be someone pulling the strings behind this. Do you think I don't know whether our medicine is genuine or not?

Zheng Yuanbao looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "We can't let you take the blame. We have plenty of people in our family, I'll go!"

"I'll go."

"Oh my god, oh my god..."

Zhou Wanwan was speechless. "Who would rush to take the blame? Especially since it hasn't even come to that yet! Don't rush, let's wait and see."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the constables from Shuntian Prefecture arrived. They looked coldly at Zhou Wanwan and said, "You own this Hundred Herbs Hall, don't you? How dare you sell fake medicine at such a young age! Guards, take her away!"

Wow! That's incredibly targeted.

Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "When did I sell fake medicine?"

The yamen runner from Shuntian Prefecture sneered, "Enough nonsense! Don't think you're absolved of responsibility just because you're young. This time someone died, and you won't escape responsibility."

Zhou Wanwan was taken directly back to Shuntian Prefecture by the yamen runners.

The Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture looked at Zhou Wanwan below the hall and said, "Why don't you kneel before me?"

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "I'm a scholar, so I don't have to kneel before officials."

The Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture looked at the toddler and laughed in exasperation, "You're a scholar? How old are you? You're already a scholar? Did you buy your way to the top in your area?"

Zhou Wanwan looked at the Shuntian Prefecture and said, "Did you buy your official position? Is it that easy to buy a scholar's degree?"

Enraged, the Shuntian Prefecture shouted, "Insolence! You audacious scoundrel, how dare you insult this official!"

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "Are you being reasonable? Are you being reasonable or not? You don't like hearing the truth anyway."

The Shuntian Prefecture snorted coldly and said, "A liar dares to tell me the truth? Men, bring that corpse up here."

Soon a body was seen being carried up, covered with a white sheet.

The Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "See? This corpse died from poisoning after eating the food from your pharmacy. What else do you have to say?"

Zhou Wanwan directly lifted the white cloth, and the Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture was stunned for a moment.

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said:

"Do you, the Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, solve cases based on guesswork?"

The body was completely intact, meaning that no coroner was ever allowed to examine it before a conclusion was reached.

The Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture sneered, "This man died after taking medicine from your pharmacy."

Zhou Wanwan looked at the Shuntian Prefecture and asked, "Then may I ask what medicine he took from our house?"

The Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture asked, "What medicine did you get from him?"

Someone tremblingly pulled out a packet of medicine and said:

"It's... it's this one, I bought it from them, I went to buy it myself."

After buying it, I took it home and brewed it for my dad to drink. After he drank it, my dad died.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the oil paper package and said:

"You mean your family bought your medicine from my store, right?"

Are you sure this whole package of medicine came from our family, right?

Have you changed the packaging, or even the paper wrapping the medicine?

The man was taken aback by the question, "No, I haven't changed it."

Zhou Wanwan scoffed and said, "Are you sure you didn't change it?"

"Without..."

"Alright." Zhou Wanwan looked at the Shuntian Prefecture and said, "Sir, I have asked all my questions. I will now take out our family's oil paper to show everyone."

Zhou Wanwan showed off the oil paper from her family's pharmacy:

"Everyone, take a look at the oil paper in our pharmacy. Each sheet of oil paper has two marks."

The markings on the front and back are different, and our oil paper is specially made, very thick, and not easily torn.

Soon someone examined the two sheets of oil paper and found they were indeed very different.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the man and said, "As for what you said about buying medicine from my house, my family keeps a prescription for every medicine we sell. Do you still have that prescription?"

The man waved his hands repeatedly, saying, "I... I accidentally threw it away."

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said:

"Don't be afraid to throw it away. Every time we get medicine, we need the patient's signature."

Please give me your name, and I'll have them check it now.

Zhou Wanwan's procedure is similar to that of a modern hospital: first, register; then, have your pulse taken; and all medication and surgical orders must be signed and sealed.

You can only get your medication or have surgery if you have a signature on the prescription.

That man had never been to the Hundred Grasses Hall before, so how would he know Hundred Grasses Hall procedures?

Zhou Wanwan looked at him and said, "Why exactly are you slandering our Hundred Grasses Hall? If you can't provide any evidence, then it's deliberate slander, which is an even more serious crime."

Before the Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture could speak, the man was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying:

"My lord, spare my life! I was just confused for a moment."

My father just died yesterday, and someone came to my house with ten taels of silver.

He said if I blamed my father's death on the Hundred Herbs Hall, he would give me another 10 taels of silver afterwards.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the Shuntian Prefecture and said, "Please investigate thoroughly, Your Excellency."
