Yangyue

The middle of the mountain is divided into two fork roads, one to the north and the other to the east, and the Dongxian County where Qi Zhu and Henry Zhang are going is exactly the road to the east.

The village man said: "My lord, the name of the little man is Fu Lang, and the name of Zhuojing is Gao Qingmei. They are from Liuqiao Village, Xixian County, Quzhou. The purpose of this trip from Xixian County to Beixian County is to ask the Great Immortal to satisfy Xiaomin. wish."

Henry Zhang looked at the villager, then at Qi Zhu who was standing aside, and said, "Continue."

The village man named Fu Lang looked at Qi Zhu, who nodded slightly at him, and then he said bitterly: "My lord...you don't know that Xiao Min and Zhuo Jing have been married for five years. But...but there are still no children. The old parents in the family are very anxious. They also searched for doctors in the village. They all said that our husband and wife are healthy, but I don’t know why we can’t conceive a child. So Xiaomin went to Beijing The purpose of going to the county is to ask for a blessing from the Great Immortal Moluo to give birth to a child, so that Xiaomin's elderly parents can enjoy their grandchildren as soon as possible."

Qi Zhu also remembered that he had seen in the government files on the Moro Sect. The Moro Sect had always preached spells such as "great wealth and great honor", "eternal youth" and "seeking a son and an official". At that time, he only regarded it as a I skipped the nonsense in a hurry, unexpectedly, there is a big market for such remarks in this remote village.

"It turns out that the two of you are looking for the Great Immortal to ask for a son." Qi Zhu replied, "It happens that we are going to Beixian too. Why don't you go on the same road with us, and the road will be safer."

Henry Zhang turned her head to look at him, there was obviously a bit of surprise in her eyes, but in the end, he didn't interrupt.

The couple were naturally very grateful. It was getting late and they were unarmed. If they were in danger again, they might not be so lucky.

Qi Zhu walked to Xiao Yangyue's side and whispered to him: "My lord, why don't we divide into two ways, one way to go to Dong County to check the physical evidence, and the other way to go to Bei County with this couple, since they are Moro believers , and asked Zi, then he must know the places in Bei County that are specially used for worship and assembly by believers, this may well be a good opportunity to investigate the Moro religion."

Xiao Yangyue was silent for a moment, then called Bai Yu, and asked him to take five guards to Dong County, and the remaining five followed him, Lord Hou and the couple to Bei County.

Bai Yu took the order, even if he took five people, stepped on the horse, carried the fainted thieves, and rode the horse towards Dongxian County, while Henry Zhang, Qi Zhu and others went to Beixian County with their husband and wife. direction to go.

When the few people arrived in Bei County, it was already You hour, and it was getting dark, so they took the couple to find an inn to stay.

Everyone had never expected to come to Beixian, so Henry Zhang didn't let anyone inform the Beixian government in advance to arrange accommodation, so they could only spend one night in a simple inn.

The inn is narrow, and when a few people arrive, there are only a few small rooms left. Even if the guards who are on duty are excluded, only two or three people can live in one room.

Henry Zhang and Qi Zhu lived in the same room. As soon as Henry Zhang entered the door, he looked at the bed made of simple wooden boards and the old bedding and sheets, and his expression did not show any dissatisfaction.

Although Henry Zhang usually sleeps on a royal rosewood carved bed, he can sleep in a palace as luxurious as a stable, and he doesn't care about it.

Not long after the two of them sat down, someone knocked on the door of the room. The couple came in with a few plates of snacks and respectfully placed them on the table.

The village man named Fu Lang said: "My lord, Xiaomin has been taken care of by adults all the way, and his family is poor and he can't repay him. Thinking that the adults are tired from the journey, he asked Xiao Er to bring some snacks for the adults. You guys, it's really crude, please forgive me, adults."

Qi Zhu said with a smile: "Thank you, you two are interested."

After Fu Lang delivered the side dishes, he was about to leave, but Qi Zhu stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, about the two of you begging the Great Immortal for a son... I still have something to ask."

"Sir, please speak."

"The two words today have reminded me, and to tell you the truth, I actually have troubles about children." Qi Zhu said with a worried face, "My family is not rich in children, so I really need to ask for the blessing of the great immortal." Zecai... but I am ashamed, I have not been enshrining the Great Immortal for a long time, and I don't know much about the matter of asking for a son, can you two tell me about this matter?"

Fu Lang quickly replied: "That's natural, Xiaomin will know everything without saying anything."

Afterwards, he explained the matter of seeking a son to Qi Zhu and Henry Zhang in detail.

"The magic power of the Great Immortal is boundless. It can make an infertile woman conceive a fetus within ten days, and it doesn't need to be pregnant in ten months. It can be born at full term in five months."

Qi Zhu asked in surprise, "Can you give birth in five months?"

"Exactly!" Speaking of this, the faces of the couple were full of admiration and anticipation, Fu Lang continued, "Not only that, the fetus born under the blessing of the Great Immortal has been blessed with the magical power of the Great Immortal since birth, and will be blessed in the future." The Huiwang people are rich and powerful."

"Is anyone really pregnant by this method?"

"Yes, there are. Mrs. Jia's family in Quzhou also believes in the Great Immortal. Last year, Mrs. Jia's wife got sick and couldn't bear children, so Young Master Jia went to ask the Great Immortal. Using this method, his two side wives were both pregnant with children. .”

Qi Yi paused: "The Jia Mansion in Quzhou? But the Jia Mansion that sells salt?"

"Return to my lord, that's right."

Qi Zhu and Henry Zhang looked at each other secretly, isn't that the family of the squire named Jia Shuo they met on Gongzhou Street that day?

Fu Lang continued: "Young Master Jia has been worshiping the Great Immortal for a long time, and he often donates money to repair the Great Immortal's ancestral hall. The blessings that have been repaired are incomparable to ordinary people. The Great Immortal is grateful for Young Master Jia's piety, so he specially casts more advanced spells. , let Young Master Jia's side wife conceive the fetus within three days, and give birth in two months."

"Is this true?"

"Xiaomin dare not hide it. This matter is known to everyone among the disciples of Mo Luo in Xixian County. Everyone knows that Mrs. Jia's side wife is pregnant. I heard that the two side wives are in good spirits now. As tired as an ordinary pregnant woman, the doctors all said that the fetal appearance is excellent, and there is no doubt that it is a boy."

"When was the child born?"

"It's coming soon, Young Master Jia is the great immortal who took his wife to ask for it two months ago, so the reincarnation should be born in just a few days."

"It turns out that this is the case, then Master Jia's family is really blessed." Qi Zhu replied, "In this case, let's go to pay homage to the Great Immortal with the two of you tomorrow."

After the couple retreated, Henry Zhang said coldly: "It's a bunch of nonsense, but some people really believe it, and they will send people to seal up this place tomorrow."

"Wait a minute, Lord Pavilion Master." Qi Zhudao, "Don't be in a hurry to seal it down, we still don't know what the Moro Sect's intentions are, why don't we go ahead and investigate, and it won't be too late to act after we find out."

Henry Zhang and Qi Zhu think differently. Qi Zhu wants to find out who the cult is. Henry Zhang doesn't care much about these, and just wants to wipe them out.

Qi Zhu saw Xiao Yangyue's hesitation, and said: "There are so many mysteries in this matter, doesn't Master Pavilion Master really want to explore the reason?"

Henry Zhang was silent for a while, and said: "Moro religion believers probably have records in the religion, how can it be so easy to get in?"

Qi Zhu: "It's good to get in. If you don't get in, you can figure out a thing or two. If it's really not good, the master of the pavilion just seals up the land."

Qi Zhu sat down on the simple plank bed, gently stroking the fan bone with his fingers: "It's just that the young master of the Jia family is also a member of the Moro religion, and he really believes in such crooked ways, and I don't know that the fetus is..."

Qi Zhu said while raising his eyes to look at Henry Zhang, who was taking off his coat with his back to him, and took off the hair crown, and the hair fell down along the shoulders.

The candlelight in the room was faint, and the window paper with holes revealed a few gleams of light, shining on Henry Zhangyue's side face, it really looked like what Qi Zhu said casually today, with fine eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and a beautiful face , like a fairy.

Qi Zhu's heart moved, he suddenly wanted to drink a little bit, since ancient times, beauties should be accompanied by fine wine.

Henry Zhangyue saw that Qi Zhu didn't speak, and asked: "What happened to the fetus?"

"I don't know where the fetus came from. If it's fake, it will be easily seen through." Qi Zhu continued, "With such rumors, even if it is fake, it may be somewhat true."

The wooden bed was barely enough for two people to sleep, because Henry Zhang had to put a sword beside the bed, so Henry Zhang slept on the outside.After the lights were turned off, the two fell asleep soundlessly in bed.

After more than an hour, the night was deep, and there was no sound in the simple and simple room.A bird suddenly flew from a distance and stopped by the window, its wings slapped the window lattice with a soft sound.

Henry Zhang opened his eyes and looked at the bird by the window. The bird didn't stay for too long, and flew away again after a while.

Henry Zhang turned his head, and Qi Zhu lay on his back beside him, sleeping soundly listening to his breathing.

Hou Ye was indeed handsome and handsome, with sword eyebrows and star-like eyes, but beauty is beauty, even if it is too romantic, like gusts of wind and flowing water, the flowing water rolls over the falling flowers, and the sound of the wind leaves no trace.

Xiao Yangyue and Qi Zhu have known each other for nearly a year. He needs to protect Lord Hou and also monitor Lord Hou. This is the emperor's will for him.The mansion of Marquis Xiankun is likely to recover. Although he is not a marquis of military generals, the emperor is somewhat wary of Marquis Xiankun.

Lord Hou is very smart, but Henry Zhang often can't see through this smartness.He seems to be smooth and sharp everywhere. If you say he is a dandy, he is very calm; if you say he is restrained, he is very romantic most of the time.

Henry Zhang inexplicably felt that Qi Zhu had an aura of quackery that ordinary people did not have.

Before dawn, Henry Zhang was suddenly awakened by the sound of hurried footsteps, as if someone was rushing over here in a hurry.He immediately turned over and got out of bed with the sword, pulled out the sword a few inches, stood by the door, and watched the movement outside the door with bated breath.

Qi Zhu was also awakened by the movement, and asked him sleepily what happened.

"My lord—my lord!"

A burst of anxious shouts came from outside the room, it was the voice of the villager.

Fu Lang wanted to knock on the door in a panic, but as soon as he raised his hand, Henry Zhang opened the door: "What's wrong?"

Fu Lang was full of panic and worry, and begged: "My lord, when she got up, she suddenly vomited, and after vomiting, she passed out on the ground! I beg your lord to call a doctor to see my wife!"

After listening to Fu Lang's words, Henry Zhang immediately sent someone out to find the doctor, and came to the room where the couple lived together with Qi Zhu.

Qi Zhu pushed the door open and entered, as expected, the woman surnamed Gao was lying on the bed with no blood on her face, she was deficient in Qi and blood, and her body was weak.

A quarter of an hour later, the guards of the duckweed pavilion brought back a doctor from the county. The doctor hurriedly put down the medical box and felt the woman's pulse.

The doctor felt the pulse and pondered for a while, and said: "Madam fainted, maybe it's due to pregnancy and shock."

Fu Lang was stunned for a while, then he said dumbfounded: "Pregnant? My lady... is she pregnant?"

"Exactly. From the pulse condition, it should be less than two months. The month is still young, so it's not easy to detect."

The village man was probably overwhelmed with surprise, he was stunned for a long time, and he came back to his senses after a long time, crying and laughing on his face, holding his wife's hand, weeping with excitement, muttering: " I have a child, I have a child! My God, I have heard the prayers of Xiaomin and my lady, and the blessings have come down! I finally have a child!"
