Rong Ling paused here for a moment before continuing.
"Where there are people, there is conflict and strife. Even if you hide in the marketplace, there will be all sorts of disputes. Even if you open a pharmacy, you need to rely on powerful patrons behind you, otherwise your peers can easily swallow your pharmacy. So where is there a place without any strife?"
"Unless you avoid crowds and lead a secluded life, but I see you seem to enjoy treating people. Can you really live such a secluded life?"
Rong Ling's words left Feng Qing momentarily stunned. She understood the meaning behind Rong Ling's words. Where there are people, there is conflict, and this is true no matter the era or place.
So her previous fear of trouble and unwillingness to be involved was actually unreasonable.
With this thought, Feng Qing felt much brighter. However, she quickly thought of a question and asked Rong Ling, "Prince, can I treat people when I return to the Capital City?"
