When the guards at the Imperial Capital City Gate saw someone take the notice, they recovered from their initial surprise, dispersed the crowd, and stopped Lu Yuan.
"Do you have any idea what you've done? Taking down an imperial notice is no trivial matter. Come with us." The guard looked at the scholarly man before him, unconvinced that his medical skills could surpass those of the Imperial Physicians in the city.
But this man had dared to take down the notice. What if he actually had some skill?

The guard wasn't a fool. He wouldn't show the slightest hint of disapproval until he knew what this person was truly capable of.
"Lead the way." Lu Yuan couldn't be bothered to argue with them.
