Quick Wear: I Fulfill the Wish of Cannon Fodder

After receiving the news, the original owner of the first life was extremely anxious and immediately went to the county town in person, racing against time to find the source of the epidemic.

After some effort, she quickly found the culprit - the poison doctor. In order to obtain the antidote, she quickly investigated the truth and captured the bandit and the county magistrate in one fell swoop.

After handing over the antidote, the poison doctor committed suicide on the spot and died with his wife and children.

In the second life, the heroine hinted to Gu Yan that they could start the investigation by targeting the bandits only after the news of the plague reached the imperial city. Gu Yan, full of trust in his lover, immediately decided to use the power of the king of a different surname to get the job.

Under Ye Chuxue's guidance, everything went smoothly. It didn't take them long to investigate the case and successfully persuade the poison doctor to hand over the antidote. Furthermore, Ye Chuxue secretly kept the poison doctor by her side for future use.

Gu Yan gained a lot from this official trip. Not only did he win the hearts and minds of the people and talented individuals, but he also earned the honor of suppressing bandits. He became increasingly dependent on and respectful of Ye Chuxue, his military advisor, for his advice.

Now it was Su Lan's turn to live for the original owner. She planned to send personnel to conduct a thorough investigation into the relationship between the county magistrate and the bandits. These cancers must be eradicated as soon as possible to prevent more innocent people from suffering from the plague.

As for the poison doctor, he was indeed guilty. In his first two lives, he took extreme actions due to the death of his family. But in his second life, when Gu Yan ascended to the throne, he chose to commit suicide.

From this perspective, he could be considered a man of loyalty and righteousness. In that case, let him stay by my side and work. After all, his poison skills might be able to make a difference, and this could be considered a way to atone for his past life's sins.

At this time, the Right Prime Minister heard that the princess was planning to send two people to inspect the south, so he recommended several suitable candidates to her. Su Lan used the information found by Tuanzi to select one of the civil officials.

This civil official, Wei Lin'an, was the son of the Minister of Works. He was not only knowledgeable but also exceptionally capable. In the original owner's first life, he ultimately rose to the position of Left Prime Minister. However, his only flaw was his excessively soft-hearted nature, requiring further training and development.

"So, does His Majesty have a favorite candidate for the other prince?" asked the Right Prime Minister.

"I haven't found any yet. I'll find a list of some young military commanders and submit it to you. Oh, by the way, I remember that the third daughter of the Taifu family is a martial artist, right?"

Su Lan dug out Murong Qian from the original owner's memory, who had been her study companion for half a year in her childhood.

She loved reading, but she read military books instead. She also secretly found a martial arts master to learn martial arts, which often made the Taifu so angry that he put her in solitary confinement.

Now that Su Lan is here and we have an empress, it makes sense to have a female general!

The Right Prime Minister immediately understood Su Lan's meaning, agreed with her, and said that he would go and persuade the Grand Tutor.

Su Lan was very satisfied with the Right Prime Minister's flexibility and asked him a few more questions about his thoughts on women participating in the imperial and military examinations.

This was also a disguised reminder to the Right Prime Minister. In the next few years, officials from families that were on good terms with the Right Prime Minister would begin to educate their daughters and no longer restrict them to learning only needlework, poetry and books. Of course, this is a story for later.

Su Lan appointed Wei Lin'an as the imperial envoy in the name of the princess, and Murong Qian and another general with sufficient experience in suppressing bandits went on a southern tour for Emperor An.

The day before departure, Su Lan specially called the two of them to the East Palace and set the first stop in a small county town. He told them about the rampant bandits and asked them to investigate and persuade the poison doctor to come to Beijing.

Time flies quickly, and in the blink of an eye, half a month has passed.

That day, Su Lan was bored and opened the system screen, ready to see the situation of the male protagonist, but ended up being shocked.

Gu Yan on the screen had become very well-behaved. No matter whether the customer was male or female, as long as the other party was willing to spend money, he would accept them.

In the past month, he had tried to seek help from others, but every time he mentioned this to his guests, he would suddenly lose his voice. Over time, he gradually lost hope.

Seeing this, Su Lan's mouth curled up slightly: "Tuanzi, find a suitable opportunity to reveal Gu Yan's news to Ye Chuxue!"

Tuanzi responded excitedly, "Okay!" It had been waiting for this moment, and it could finally publish the male protagonist's information. Before, Tuanzi had been hiding the male protagonist's information, but now it just needed to open up the permissions.

Sure enough, Ye Chuxue, who had been searching for Gu Yan for half a month, finally heard people talking about the newest top performer in Chu Xiaoguan in an inn.

"The newest top performer at Chu Xiao Pavilion is actually Hong Yi, who has only been here for a little over a month!"

"He has a pretty face, but he doesn't like to talk."

"Hey, my cousin once saw him up close, and he even had a teardrop mole under his right eye!"

When Ye Chuxue heard this, she immediately rushed over, grabbed them, and asked, "Where is Chu Xiao Pavilion?"

If she wasn't wearing men's clothes, she would have brought shame to the Duke's Mansion.

Inside the Chu Xiao Pavilion, Gu Yan, wearing a light veil, was smiling as she watched the two people in front of her vying for the chance to spend the night together.

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open roughly. Gu Yan subconsciously looked up, and the two people's eyes met at that moment.

Gu Yan's eyes instantly became moist and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Hatsuye, you're here"

He was originally a rough but delicate young general, but now he was full of the smell of worldly affairs, not to mention the light gauze dress he was wearing.

Gu Yan saw the look of disgust on Ye Chuxue's face, and the gratitude and guilt that had just risen in his heart disappeared without a trace.

All this was thanks to Chu Ye (also known as Ye Chuxue's pseudonym), otherwise why would he go to a brothel to try to face his feelings, and thus be caught by a middle-aged man and brought to such a place to suffer.

When the boss heard that someone wanted to redeem the girl in red clothes, he immediately came over with a smile on his face and twisted his waist.

When she saw Ye Chuxue standing before her, her eyes lit up. Though dressed as a man, the young lady was elegantly dressed and had a refined demeanor, clearly a lady from a wealthy family. So, the boss hatched a plan and decided to rip her off handsomely.

She put on a smile and said enthusiastically, "The ransom for the red dress is three thousand taels. Is the young lady willing?"

"I..." Ye Chuxue was stunned when she heard the price. Although she knew it would cost a lot of money to redeem herself, she didn't expect it to be so expensive. For a moment, she found it difficult to accept.

She smiled slightly and replied calmly, "I just came to see the top pick, I didn't ask for redemption."

When the boss heard this, his face turned ugly instantly. He snorted contemptuously, turned around and left with a twist of his waist.

"Chu Ye, you..." Gu Yan, who was standing by, felt even more disappointed when he saw this scene. He had thought Ye Chuxue would redeem Hong Yi without hesitation, but he hadn't expected her to be so stingy with money. However, he hadn't noticed the word "Miss" in their conversation.

"Brother Gu, don't worry," Ye Chuxue consoled him, while her mind raced with ideas for a solution. Suddenly, she thought of the palace's secret guards. If she could get in touch with them, she wouldn't have to spend so much money saving people.

Gu Yan's heart sank when she mentioned the palace's secret guards. He realized that Gu Tianqi might have already learned of his situation, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes. It seemed he couldn't stay in this brothel.

He gave Ye Chuxue the method of contacting the secret guards and agreed on a time for escape.
