Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen
Chapter 44 Killer
"Mom, can we clear out that empty space in the backyard and plant some vegetables?"
Ji obviously didn't expect Lu Ke'er to make such a suggestion, and asked in surprise: "Can we grow vegetables on that land?"
"Our home is at the foot of the mountain. I've checked and the soil is relatively soft, and there's enough sunshine. We can cultivate the land in the backyard and grow some vegetables."
Thinking of some medicinal herbs found in the mountains, Lu Keer had a vague idea in her mind.
Maybe, not only can we grow vegetables...
When I have more money, I will buy some land.
As a farmer, not having land is like a soldier without a gun. It makes people feel insecure.
While the Lu family was happily eating braised large intestines and clear soup snails at noon, more than ten miles away in the private room of Pinxianlou in Jinji Town, Rong Zhixing and Yu Qianjing were also happily eating the pickled fish that had just been served.
"Fresh, tender and smooth, very appetizing." Rong Zhixing ate one more bowl of rice than usual. After eating, he wiped his mouth with a towel, still savoring the taste.
"This village girl is a good cook." Yu Qianjing had to admit this. Although this pot of pickled fish was not made by the village girl, it was the method she provided.
"She has a name, don't call her a country girl." Rong Zhixing looked at him puzzledly, "Why don't you like her?"
"So, you like her?" Yu Qianjing asked back, staring at Rong Zhixing with those peach blossom eyes without blinking.
Rong Zhixing was stunned when he heard this.
"What are you asking?" Rong Zhixing suppressed his thoughts and said seriously, "Miss Lu is an extraordinary person. She has unique skills and superb medical skills. It's best not to offend such a person."
"Really?" Yu Qianjing obviously didn't believe it, "Your attitude towards her is not ordinary."
"Qian Jing, you should know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never given up on finding a doctor over the years." Rong Zhixing said, "You are a descendant of the Yu family. Your Yu family and His Royal Highness Prince Jing have long been on the same boat. Do you really not know the importance of Miss Lu?"
Yu Qianjing was shocked.
How could he forget these important relationships?
No wonder his grandfather once criticized him, saying that he was not far-sighted enough, was too emotional when dealing with things, and would not achieve great things.
"So what about your Rong family?" Yu Qianjing asked.
"Everyone knows that our Rong family has always been neutral, not involved in party disputes, and only supports the current emperor." Rong Zhixing patted Yu Qianjing's shoulder, and said something with a hidden meaning, "Although I am the second son of the Rong family, I am just a businessman. You should think about what to do next."
Yu Qianjing remained silent.
At this time, Xia Feng asked for a meeting.
Rong Zhixing saw Xia Feng's complicated expression and excitement in his eyes, so he couldn't help but ask, "How is the investigation going? Is there any clue?"
Xia Feng said respectfully, "Master, there is indeed a big problem with this shopkeeper Yuan. His current name is Yuan Xiao, but I have found out that he used to be called Yuan Qifeng."
"Why did he change his name?"
"Master, you can't imagine the true identity of Yuan Qifeng." Xia Feng's voice was a little excited. "Yuan Qifeng is one of the top ten assassins in the world today, ranking tenth. He is excellent in Qinggong and is good at using poison. He is also a member of the Soul-Seizing Tower, the largest assassin organization in the world. Two years ago, he was wanted by the court for killing Wei Junzhi, the prefect of Luzhou."
"Wei Junzhi?" Yu Qianjing's heart trembled. "This man is a leader among the younger generation of the direct lineage of the Wei family. Five years ago, he passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi. At a young age, he was appointed the prefect of Luzhou. When he was killed, the emperor was furious and sent people to investigate. They found the Soul-Seeking Tower. But I heard that after all these years, no one knows where the Soul-Seeking Tower is and who the owner is."
Rong Zhixing was also a moment of sighing.
Rong Zhixing's father, Rong Yaozu, was the current Taiwei, in charge of the army and horses of the world, and was the head of the military officers. Wei Chengyuan, the head of the Wei family, was the current prime minister, and was the head of the civil officials. Both of them were truly powerful and influential officials. Since ancient times, civil officials and military officials have been at odds, and the two factions often fought in the court. However, privately, it did not prevent Rong Zhixing from admiring and appreciating the integrity of some literati.
Wei Junzhi, a direct descendant of the Wei family, was highly regarded by Wei Chengyuan. He was upright and honest, and it was said that he had a very good reputation in Luzhou and was a good official who was honest and pragmatic.
Pity.
Rong Zhixing suddenly thought of something and became puzzled. He asked, "Since he is wanted, Yuan Qifeng's portrait should have been sent all over the country. Why doesn't anyone recognize him?"
Xia Feng replied, "Master, you don't know. Yuan Qifeng's current figure and appearance are very different from two years ago. He used to be a thin man, tall and thin, like a bamboo pole. But now, he is fat, and his appearance has changed a lot."
It turned out to be the case.
Rong Zhixing and Yu Qianjing suddenly realized.
"Strange, how did you find him suspicious?" Yu Qianjing asked, "Why did you suddenly think of investigating him?"
Rong Zhixing smiled faintly and replied, "It was also a coincidence. Xuanhu Pavilion is a medical clinic after all, and it is always right to be serious about the people it recruits."
Xia Feng raised his head slightly, glanced at Rong Zhixing, and then lowered his head again.
The master did not mention that this was because of Miss Lu’s reminder.
Is this out of protection for Miss Lu or because of distrust of Mr. Yu?
Yu Qianjing nodded: "Fortunately you are cautious."
He and Rong Zhixing looked at each other and both were keenly aware of the seriousness of the matter.
"Xia Feng, this matter is not easy to make public." Rong Zhixing took out a token and handed it to Xia Feng, "Send someone to keep a close eye on Yuan Qifeng. Also, you take this and immediately go to Luzhou Prefecture to find Luzhou Governor Lu Yiquan and ask him to arrange for someone to capture Yuan Qifeng."
"Yes."
After Xia Feng took the order and left, Yu Qianjing bowed to Rong Zhixing and thanked him, "Zhixing, thank you very much for this matter. It's a pity for you to take such trouble."
"how do I say this?"
Yu Qianjing said, "Do you really want me to make it clear? The current Luzhou prefect Qian Gui is Chen Wang's man. If Qian Gui is informed of this matter, Chen Wang will definitely intervene. For Chen Wang, it is more beneficial not to investigate the assassination case than to investigate him. You deliberately avoided Qian Gui to find Lu Yiquan, so you must be on guard against him..."
"Qian Jing, be careful with your words." Rong Zhixing frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "I am just somewhat friendly with Governor Lu. Who else can I turn to if not him? Besides, I am just a small businessman."
Yu Qianjing just smiled and said nothing.
Rong Zhixing, we grew up together, but he still hides his true abilities from him. It's really infuriating.
Two days later, Lu Ke'er took Old Jiangtou's ox cart to Jinji Town again. This time, she did not ask Dong Ling to come with her, but set out alone.
I heard that Dongling's family loved the snail meat after eating it these two days. Dongling was so excited that she dragged Shuanzhu to the river every day to catch snails.
This time, without the gossipy Lin Qin in the car, the journey was much more harmonious. The villagers in the car all noticed Lu Ke'er's change, and they approached her intentionally or unintentionally to talk to her. She also accepted everyone who came and responded patiently.
After arriving at Jinji Town, she got off the ox cart and walked towards Pinxianlou.
Qin Fang had just finished his breakfast and was about to check the ingredients in the kitchen when he saw Lu Ke'er walk in. He was so surprised that he hurriedly went forward to greet her.
