Who cares about belated family affection? Family members beg for forgiveness

Jingyang City

After receiving the news from the emperor that there was a locust plague in Jingyang City.

He immediately sent the documents over 800 miles on an expedited basis.

Remove the mayor of Jingyang City.

The current Lord of Jingyang City is Gan Quan, the principal of Jingyang Academy.

Since Ganquan took office,

I only stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for one day.

After reorganizing all the officials and soldiers in Jingyang City, he led his men directly to Jixiang Village.

In several villages near Jixiang Village, all the farmland was destroyed by locusts.

After Gan Quan understood the situation, he went straight back to Jingyang City.

Summon all the doctors in Jingyang City.

Discuss together how to kill the locusts.

As long as they can develop a medicine that can successfully kill locusts, they will be rewarded.

Moreover, I will write a letter of recommendation and give you the opportunity to work in the Imperial Medical Service.

Being an imperial physician is the dream of every doctor.

It is also a symbol of their identity.

All the doctors with excellent medical skills volunteered and crowded into the City Lord's Mansion.

So many doctors were crowded together.

I saw that each of them was full of confidence and fighting spirit.

Gan Quan waved his hand and said, "Prepare the herbs yourselves. This city lord only needs to see the results. As for the process, you guys have to figure it out yourself."

The doctors complained bitterly.

"Lord City Lord, since you want us to try, you have to prepare the herbs."

Ganquan smiled:

"Does it mean that when students go to the capital to take the imperial examinations, the emperor has to pay for the pens, ink, paper, and inkstones they use, or does it mean that the people of the world have to pay for them?"

The doctors were speechless after hearing this.

Yes, they are now equivalent to students going to Beijing to take imperial examinations.

Gan Quan's words sent all the doctors away.

As a result, after several days, not a single doctor came to congratulate him.

Gan Quan grabbed his hair tightly and submitted memorials every day, hoping that the emperor would send an imperial physician.

He was getting very anxious.

At this time, he received news that Lan Kexin and others were about to arrive in Jingyang City.

He was overjoyed and waited outside the city gate with everyone early in the morning.

After waiting so long, I finally heard the voice:

"Sir, sir, they are coming, not far ahead."

How could Ganquan still stand there?

Immediately ran forward to greet him.

Seeing his hurried steps, Master Feng had to speak up and remind him.

"Lord City Lord, please wait here. They are riding horses. You will have to run for a distance and then have to follow behind them and eat their dust."

Gan Quan stopped and glared at him angrily:

"Why didn't you remind me earlier?"

Master Feng pursed his lips.

"I didn't know you would catch up."

"You're the only one who talks too much and has no wit at all."

Ganquan quietly retreated to the city gate and waited.

Lan Kexin and her group soon came into their sight.

Ganquan could no longer stand.

Ignoring Master Feng's dissuasion, he paced forward and ran.

Looking at Jingyang City, it is right in front of you.

The Sixth Prince slowed down.

Wait for Lan Kexin to come up and walk side by side with him.

Looking at the city lord running towards them.

He was dressed like a teacher.

Lan Kexin couldn't help but look at the Sixth Prince.

"Is that the city lord or the master?"

Regarding the replacement of the mayor of Jingyang City.

The Sixth Prince knew it very well.

"That's City Lord Gan, the new one. The previous one has been thrown into prison and is awaiting his fate."

Looking at the city lord who immediately ran to the horse.

Lan Kexin stopped the horse and dismounted.

As for Gan Quan, he knew General Yu.

From a distance, he nodded to General Yu.

His eyes fell on Lan Kexin.

There are only two women in this team.

One is Lan Kexin and the other is her maid.

Looking at Chunzhu's dressing, you know who is who without asking?

Gan Quan clasped his hands together, his eyes sparkling as if he had seen a savior.

"Miss Lan, I've finally got you here."

Lan Kexin was almost burned by his shining eyes.

"City Lord Gan, don't look at me like that. I'm scared."

"Miss Lan is too modest. Please come and discuss important matters with the city lord."

Gan Quan glanced at the bearded Sixth Prince.

When he saw his eyes, he felt they looked familiar.

For a moment, I didn’t recognize who was in front of me?

She just nodded to him without asking any more questions.

"Lord Gan, don't you recognize this general?"

General Yu walked quickly and walked side by side with Gan Quan.

Ganquan smiled bitterly.

"I know you, of course I know you. I'm just disturbed by these locusts and can't sleep or eat. I just greeted you."

Looking at the three people walking side by side, the Sixth Prince and Xuan Yi were one step behind them.

Xuanyi glanced at his master.

Why do I feel that the master is so frustrated on this trip?

I usually walk at the front of the crowd.

When I came to Jingyang City, I was actually treated as a subordinate.

The Sixth Prince simply stopped and refused to move.

"Where are Xuan Er and the others? How are they doing?"

Wait until all the soldiers have left.

They also followed him into Jingyang City.

Xuan Er walked out from another corner.

"Master, the food in Jixiang Village has been basically destroyed, and the locusts are increasing in number. I am terrified just watching them."

Is that much?

"Where did these locusts come from? Have you found out?"

Xuan Er lowered his head:

"My subordinates are not doing their job well, and we haven't found out the truth yet."

"Then continue to investigate for me."

The Sixth Prince was not in a hurry to go to the City Lord's Mansion.

But walking on the street.

They were heading towards the rice shop on the street.

I plan to ask about the price of rice in Jingyang City one by one.

As a result, the two of them had just reached the rice shop.

He was driven away by the shopkeeper.

"My two guests, please go buy food elsewhere. We are out of food."

Xuan Yi was puzzled: "Why did you open the door if there is no rice?"

The shopkeeper pointed to the window and said, "Can't you see we're only half open? That means we're out of food. All the food has been bought up at exorbitant prices."

The Sixth Prince frowned and said, "It was bought by someone. Who bought it?"

"We don't know either. That person is still using tough tactics. We have no choice but to sell it."

"Then why don't you report this to the city lord?"

The shopkeeper sighed.

"We wanted to report this to the city lord, but he's been running around Jixiang Village every day, even staying in Jixiang Village. We can only wait."

The Sixth Prince nodded slightly and continued walking forward.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper quickly ran out to stop them:

"Alas, you don't need to ask. This street is basically the same. Now we just have to wait for the city lord to kill the locusts and then come to us for justice."

"Master, I will go and check it out to see who is behind this and what their intentions are."

The Sixth Prince nodded.

Xuan Yi left and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
