Escape after crossing
Chapter 100 Lotus
"There is nothing wrong with Magistrate Wu, but his eldest son Wu Xing is a playboy. He spends all day eating, drinking and having fun with those idle people. He is uneducated and has no skills.
However, Lord Wu’s second son was a smart boy. He was already a scholar at the age of ten, but he also had a very bad habit.
That child has loved eating since he was young. If he is not allowed to eat well and have enough, he will not be able to remember anything, let alone memorize books and take exams. "
"Nothing else? Is there nothing else going on in Wu Shiyong's family?"
"Wu Shiyong has only one wife, Chen. He has no concubines, and his backyard is clean. Both of his sons are from Chen. He also has an old mother, and there is no one else."
"Oh, by the way, a few years ago, Wu Shiyong's cousin Wu Shijie came to seek refuge from his hometown. Wu Shiyong arranged Wu Shijie to work under Li Qianzong to guard the city gate. Now he is a captain."
"Captain Wu?"
"Yes, there are only a few captains under Li Qian who are guarding the city gate, and there is only one with the surname Wu."
Xuanyi felt strange. Tonight, Wu Shijie and Wu Shiyong didn't look like cousins. "Are they cousins not getting along and not close?"
"Probably not? I've seen them drinking and chatting together."
As soon as Shopkeeper Zhang finished speaking, the door of the room was opened. When Xuan Yi saw the person who opened the door, he immediately stood up and knelt respectfully.
"Xuan Yi meets the master."
"Get up, Xuanyi, when did you come? Just by yourself?"
"My lord, this subordinate and Miss Jiang came here together tonight."
Leng Chenming, who had just sat down, stood up again. "What? Just the two of you?"
"Yes, master."
"You entered the city as doctors?"
"Master, how do you know?"
Leng Chenming frowned and did not answer Xuan Yi's question. "You have met the emperor's uncle. How is he?"
"The Ninth Prince was poisoned. Miss Jiang said that the Ninth Prince was poisoned by more than one kind of poison, but she couldn't find out what it was yet.
Miss Jiang wants to go to the plague area tomorrow to investigate the source and see if she can find anything."
Xuan Yi thought for a moment and then spoke again, "Master, Miss Jiang wants to re-investigate the prefect Wu Shiyong."
"Oh, why?" Leng Chenming, who had been frowning just now, suddenly seemed to be relieved and felt much more relaxed.
Xuan Yi naturally noticed the change in Leng Chenming. Seeing that Leng Chenming's expression was not so ugly anymore, he told him again what happened after they entered the city.
Originally, when Leng Chenming heard Xuan Yi say that he and Miss Jiang entered the city as doctors, Leng Chenming thought that they were stupid and were being plotted against without knowing it.
After listening to Xuan Yi's words, he felt that it was not so stupid. "Tomorrow you go to the plague area and carefully find the source, but don't let Miss Jiang delay and not prescribe medicine.
Go back and bring two people with you. Have them secretly protect the emperor's uncle's safety in the next few days. You must also protect Miss Jiang."
"Master, the Ninth Prince's secret guards have been in the dark and have not come out. Do you still need to bring people over?"
"Take them over. The emperor's uncle's secret guards are no match for you. Just let them stay in the dark. You don't have to worry about investigating Wu Shiyong. If there is anything, I will send someone to find you. Just protect Miss Jiang."
"Yes, I obey."
"Xuanwu Xuanliu."
"I'm here." Leng Chenming said, and the two of them immediately appeared in the room and knelt respectfully in front of Leng Chenming.
"Get up, you will follow Xuan Yi later. You just heard it, protect the emperor's uncle in the dark."
"Master, it may not be appropriate to leave only the third brother by your side. Let Xuan Liu go, and I and the third brother will stay with you." Xuan Wu asked worriedly.
"Master, Xuanwu is right. Your safety is also very important." Xuanyi advised worriedly.
"Am I the master or are you? Do as I say." Leng Chenming's face turned cold and his voice also became cold.
The three of them had been following Leng Chenming all year round, so they could naturally feel the changes in Leng Chenming's aura. No one dared to say anything more, "Yes, I'll take my leave."
The night passed quickly with everyone having their own thoughts. Jiang Ziluo woke up very early, went into the space to take a shower, changed clothes, and then walked around the yard.
The servants all knew that another doctor had come last night, and they were respectful when they saw strangers in the yard in the morning.
Before they came, they were told by the manager that the people here were all important people and they had to be treated with care to avoid accidentally losing their heads.
The servants and maids were all quite well behaved, except for a few young and pretty ones who were initially arranged to be with the Ninth Prince by Wu Shiyong.
The Ninth Prince, however, did not touch them. On the surface, the Ninth Prince was uneducated and only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.
At first, Wu Shiyong wondered why the Ninth Prince didn't touch those girls. He was also worried that the Ninth Prince thought those girls were not pretty enough and was planning to find a few more.
The Ninth Prince was worried that the plague would be discovered and the King would blame him, and he would have a hard time explaining himself.
Later, when the Ninth Prince fell ill and moved to this small courtyard, those young and beautiful girls were unwilling to come over.
The person in charge doesn't care whether you are willing or not. You were bought and you have no say in anything. In the end, you have to follow him anyway.
In fact, several people also set their sights on the imperial physicians or the doctors who came with them, but they disliked the imperial physicians because they were too old and were afraid of being infected with the plague, so they gave up the idea.
Now when you see an imperial physician or doctor, you leave immediately after hearing their instructions, and come here as little as possible. Now I see that the new doctor is such a young and good-looking man.
They couldn't help but take a few more glances, and some were bold enough to step forward and talk to Jiang Ziluo when they saw him.
"Sir, a doctor came last night. I wonder if he is you?" Jiang Ziluo was still wearing men's clothes today, but they were new clothes and her makeup was more mature.
The new clothes were still on the way, and Huajianfu Restaurant prepared two sets of clothes for her and Xuanyi.
Jiang Ziluo originally didn't want to take it. There were already clothes in the bag, but Xuan Yi said that the clothes were prepared for Jiang Ziluo and no one else could wear them, so he let Jiang Ziluo take them.
Beauty, you are well-informed, right? I am the doctor." Jiang Ziluo said nonchalantly.
"Where are you from, sir? Why did you come to Jiangdu?" The maid, who was already brave, became a little shy when she heard Jiang Ziluo praising her.
But she still did not forget to ask what she wanted to know. And Jiang Ziluo naturally would not let the beauty down.
"I am from Kyoto, and I am here for fun. Fortunately, I am here, otherwise how could I have met you, the beauty? You are from Jiangdu?"
"Sir, I was bought to your mansion by the prefect a few years ago." As she said this, she moved closer to Jiang Ziluo.
"Oh, if I had known this earlier, I would have come to Jiangdu City earlier. Maybe I could have saved the beauty a few years of suffering."
Seeing that the maid was trying to get closer to him, Jiang Ziluo raised her chin.
"What's your name, little beauty?"
"My lord, my name is Lianhua."
"Oh, Out of the mud, untainted, this is a good name."
As soon as Jiang Ziluo finished speaking, he heard someone calling out "Lotus."
When Lianhua heard the voice, she subconsciously took two steps back from Jiang Ziluo, bowed, and left reluctantly.
Jiang Ziluo looked at the maid named Lianhua with interest, thinking about how to find out about Wu Shiyong.
Although Xuanyi and the others have checked it, it would be good to learn more from other places. Maybe there will be some unexpected gains?
