MTL - Raising Wolves-v2 Chapter 43
The next morning.
Starting from the capital, Fan Xingyan, who brought a large amount of relief supplies, finally arrived at Jiangyou in a hurry.
The genius lit up a gleam of light, and the carriage and horses entered the city. As soon as they reached the gate of the official office, Fan Xingyan wiped his tired face, and before he had time to rest, he hurried to see His Majesty the Emperor first.
When he stepped into the yard, Fan Xingyan smelled a strong smell of medicine.
He was startled, his eyes were not dazed, he grabbed Chang Shun who was leading the way, and asked nervously: "Eunuch Changshun, dare to ask Your Majesty but... the dragon body is not good?"
When he entered the city, he saw a large area of resettlement outside the city, and also looked at the eye disease center from a distance.
Along the way, I heard that His Majesty has personally visited the sick center several times. Now the atmosphere in the office is dignified.
A guess slipped through his mind, and Fan Xingyan's face suddenly turned pale.
Changshun glanced at him, showing an inscrutable expression, and only spit out four words: "Not Your Majesty."
Not Your Majesty?
Fan Xingyan was a little puzzled, and when he entered the room, he suddenly realized Lu Qingze, who had lost weight and was leaning on the couch wearing a mask, as well as His Majesty, who was testing the temperature with his hands on the medicine bowl with a serious face.
Seeing people coming, Ning Juan held the medicine bowl to Lu Qingze, and glanced at Fan Xingyan: "Tell me, what happened after I left Beijing."
Lu Qing was dug up early in the morning to drink the medicine, and his brain was still not turned on. He held the medicine bowl in a daze and listened to them.
Fan Xingyan secretly glanced at Lu Qingze worriedly, and lowered his head to answer Ning Juan's question: "After Your Majesty left Beijing, the Guardian Party became more reckless and extremely rampant."
"Fan Wei, the commander-in-chief of the Fifth Army Battalion, wounded people on a horse in the street. Several censors impeached him. The next day, he was pulled into a dark alley and beaten!"
"Master Chen, the censor of Zuoyao, couldn't bear to scolded Wei Herong in anger, and was detained by the Ministry of Punishment without documents..."
Fan Xingyan was originally a meticulous person, and he said everything in detail.
Ning Juan listened with a light expression on his face.
What Fan Xingyan said was the same as what he reported in the secret letter he received.
The fifth-rank officials said they were closed, and the guards’ style was almost the same as the eunuchs who smashed the government at the beginning.
Lu Qing poured out the medicine with difficulty, and asked with candied fruit, "Where's Wei Herong?"
Having said so much, it seems that there is no action from Wei Herong himself.
Jiang You had such a big incident. Ning Juan was here in person, and the court must be very lively. Wei Herong found himself being placed by the little emperor and suffered a big loss. He also knew that Pan Jingmin was in their hands. React?
Fan Xingyan shook his head and said: "After the Jiangyou incident, Wei Herong was accused of protecting Pan Jingmin and hiding the disaster. Wei Herong did not deny or admit it, but he didn't show up again.
The Jiangyou incident won the hearts of the people for Ning Juan, and it also shook Wei Herong.
Presumably Wei Herong won't sit still, but just retreat.
After returning to Beijing, there is still a battle to be fought.
Ning Juan retracted the thoughts of wandering away, and tapped the table table on the couch with his fingertips: "Master Fan, I have a matter for you to handle."
Fan Xingyan said solemnly: "Your Majesty, please say that this minister will never quit!"
"When you entered the city, you should have seen the infirmary from a distance." Ning Juan's tone was very calm, and when his sharp eyes shrouded Fan Xingyan's face for a moment, he said slowly, "The person who originally supervised the infirmary. He was beheaded yesterday for negligence, and now there is no one to supervise the patient's office, do you dare to go?"
Lu Qing also turned his face and looked at Fan Xingyan.
Yesterday, after Xiao Jin came to report the situation of the patient center, Ning Juan sent someone to deal with the officials who were supervising the patient center. .
I was too hasty before and used the wrong person. This time I have to choose a person with a honest character.
In the place where the patient is, the supervising officials do not have to contact the patient in person, but there is a risk in the end.
Fan Xingyan's wife was only found to be pregnant. He left the capital and came to Jiangyou this time, and he had to be separated for at least a few months. Now he has to take over the task of infection risk, which must be extremely stressful for him.
Will he be willing?
Under the gaze of the two, Fan Xingyan was only stunned for a moment. After a moment of silence, he looked resolute and gave a long bow: "This minister will fulfill his duties and will not disappoint His Majesty's expectations."
Lu Qing didn't know what Fan Xingyan was thinking at that moment.
But at this moment, he admired Fan Xingyan very much.
"Sir Fan, don't worry," Lu Qing coughed lowly, bending the corners of his white lips, "There is already a miracle doctor and imperial doctor who have jointly developed a prescription for treating the epidemic, and these few days they are in the middle of some patients. The test medicine is very effective, and after a few days of pushing it down, the epidemic will be eliminated soon."
Fan Xingyan was stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly heaved a sigh of relief unconsciously.
He also has an elderly mother who has limited mobility and a wife who is three months pregnant. Who wouldn't be happy if he could be less exposed to danger?
Ning Juan retracted his tentative gaze, lowered his head and took a sip of tea: "Okay, I'm tired of traveling, let's go down and have a rest."
Fan Xingyan bowed again, and then left.
Lu Qing continued to stuff candied fruit into his mouth, thinking with relief that Mr. Fan had succeeded in the interview.
Fan Xingyan left on the front foot, and Zheng Yao came back on the back foot to report the situation of the patient.
"Report to Your Majesty, the patient's clinic has been basically cleaned up. According to Mr. Lu, the patient's vomit and excrement have been mixed with lime and buried, and the patient's old clothes have also been dug and burned. Dispose of buckets, chamber pots, and spittoons, and process them once a day."
Lu Qing listened by the side, and put another candied fruit in his mouth.
The food and water sources brought into the patient's house every day are controlled and can't go wrong. The reason why the disease is still spreading in the patient's house is that he guesses that it has something to do with the overflowing of the patient's house and the rampant mosquitoes.
They are still in Jiangyou now, and the gang of people in the patient center have received orders and dare not ignore them. When they leave, this matter has to be handed over to Fan Xingyan.
Early in the morning, His Majesty the Emperor did not live peacefully, first Fan Xingyan, then Zheng Yao, and soon Changshun came again to deliver the official document.
Lu Qing is currently in the category of why he can't do it, so he stuffed candied fruit into his mouth again boredly.
Ning Yan just watched him like a hamster, stuffing one after another, and the whole plate of candied fruit was going to bottom. Finally, he couldn't help but turned his head and clamped Lu Qingze's hand, laughing and laughing: "Teacher, eat less. Click this, watch out for your teeth!"
Lu Qing sighed without struggling, let go of his hand honestly, and muttered as he wiped his hands, "I don't even have the freedom to eat some sweets?"
Ning Juan listened to him talking to himself, both funny and distressed.
I can't wait to put all the delicious and fun food in the world in front of Lu Qingze and let him choose, but for the sake of his body, he can only be cautious.
Lu Qingze's guess was indeed correct.
Under the strict order of Ning Juan and the supervision of Fan Xingyan, the patient centers in various places were renovated, and the cleaned filth was disinfected with lime.
Xu Shu also presented the final prescription, which was extended to patients in various places.
After a few days in this way, the statistical list was handed in, and as expected, almost no new infected persons appeared.
"More than 90% of the patients have improved significantly after taking the medicine, and they no longer vomit and have diarrhea."
Fan Xingyan said with joy: "I heard that the dam has also been rebuilt. Thanks to His Majesty and Lord Lu, if you hadn't come in person, Jiangyou's situation would not have improved so quickly."
If he came alone, he would first have to meet Pan Jingmin and the others.
Pan Jingmin alone is enough for him. Besides Pan Jingmin, there are also those who are opportunistic profiteers, push three, block four, and violate yang and yin.
Lu Qing waved his hand: "It's His Majesty's credit for being able to sort things out so quickly. I didn't do anything."
The two were sitting in the pavilion facing each other, the wind was blowing.
As soon as Fan Xingyan arrived in Jiangyou, he rushed into the patient's office to work. If he hadn't come back today to report the situation, the two would never have seen each other.
When we met a few days ago, Fan Xingyan didn't ask much about Ning Juan's presence, but now he carefully observes Lu Qingze, who has lost a bit of weight, and can't help sighing: "Huaixue, I heard that you were seriously ill and almost didn't wake up. Come…"
Lu Qing blinked and smiled: "Listen to what Xiaodao said? Where's the exaggeration? It's not good now, so it's just to save clothes."
Fan Xingyan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Huaixue, you are too optimistic."
Lu Qing was shrouded in the shadow of death in his last life, and jumped at the gate of **** again and again in this life. He was a little bearish on life and death, and said casually: "I have also drank the medicine, and I have taken care of myself. I can’t do anything to live up to my expectations, I can’t frown and sigh all day long, wouldn’t that make me die faster.”
Fan Xingyan's eyes widened, and before he "bah bah bah", there was the sound of footsteps deliberately stepping on him.
When Ning Juan came over, he glared at Lu Qingze, who was easily talking about life and death, with a calm expression on his face: "Master Fan, the official business is tedious, let's go to work first."
Hey, I was heard.
Lu Qing lowered his eyebrows and looked like a quail.
Fan Xingyan saw that he was talking about being caught, but before Lu Qing could speak to hold him back, he happily got up to salute and left, and walked quickly.
Lu Qing opened his mouth, and had to cut off the topic before Ning Juan started to ask his guilt: "I heard that Lin Xi has recovered? We are about to leave Jiang You, it is not too late, let's make it clear to him as soon as possible. "
Ning Juan was annoyed: "Teacher, next time you speak so openly, I will teach you a lesson."
Lu Qing was very perfunctory: "Oh, oh, well."
Ning is tired.
The teacher still coaxed him as a child!
When will Lu Qing find out that he has grown up?
He gritted his teeth in anger, and swallowed his breath and told Changshun, "Go and bring Lin Xi and Yu Zheng over."
After the onset of the disease that day, the imperial doctor who was ordered by Ning Juan has been diligently diagnosing and treating. After that, Xu Shu was brought to Ji'an Mansion. Lin Xi and Yu Liuyue were near the water tower.
Before life and death, Yu Zheng took care of his daughter and adopted son, and most of his memory was restored.
The family had long wanted to come to see Ning Juan to express their gratitude, but even though they were in the official office, His Majesty the Emperor didn't want to see him. Coming soon.
Lin Xi is young and strong, and he is a martial artist. He is not haggard when he recovers from a serious illness, and his pace is very steady.
Lu Qing sighed enviously.
Lin Xi was still a little shy, following behind Yu Zheng, he didn't dare to look directly at anyone.
The father and son were led into the pavilion by Changshun. When they saw Ning Juan and wanted to salute, Ning Juan raised his hand: "No salute."
Lu Qing looked at Lin Xi with a smile: "You two don't need to be polite. Your Majesty asked you to come here, just to ask one thing."
Lin Xi was still a little unclear, but Yu Zheng had already guessed something, and his face changed suddenly.
Ning Juan saw the change in Yu Zheng's face at a glance, his face was light and indifferent, and he could not see his emotions: "It seems that you already know what I want to say."
Yu Zheng's complexion was fluctuating. After his memory was restored, he remembered about Zhao Zhengde, and his trust in people was also weakened by three points, especially when he heard that most of the bandits who were taken down the mountain that day had disappeared.
This little majesty in front of him is not a soft-hearted person.
What if Lin Xi was actually the son of a criminal, and His Majesty came to kill him?
All kinds of thoughts slid through his mind, but he finally lowered his head and clenched his hands silently: "The grass people understand."
Now that they have been found, it is expected that His Majesty has already investigated it clearly, and it is a waste of time to hide it.
Yu Zheng licked his dry lips, suddenly knelt down with a slam, and said sternly, "Your Majesty, no matter what Lin Xi's parents did, when Caomin picked him up, he was just a general child, and he didn't know anything. His Majesty…"
"Mr. Yu, you misunderstood," Lu Qing looked at him in a hurry, after stunned for a moment, he got up with a smile and went to help him, "Please get up quickly, Your Majesty is not here to hold you accountable, we have indeed investigated Lin Xi's life experience. Clear, but contrary to what you think."
He looked at Lin Xi who was at a loss and said gently, "Lin Xi's father is not a criminal, but a hero who guards Daqi."
Yu Zheng and Lin Xi were stunned together, especially Lin Xi, whose big eyes were full of confusion.
Lu Qingze and Ning Juan looked at each other and explained: "Twelve years ago, during the war in Mobei, General Shi Rongfeng sent his own soldiers to **** the five-year-old little prince back to Beijing, but he was attacked on the way, and the little prince disappeared. With a crescent-shaped birthmark and a token on his body, the general has been looking for the little prince all these years."
It's just that Lin Xi was taken to the south of the Yangtze River, and General Shi was in Mobei, and his hand couldn't reach so long.
When Lu Qingze's words came out, Yu Zheng was shocked and took a deep breath: "Shi, General Shi?"
Who among the people of Limin in Daqi did not know about Shi Jiajun?
They may not know the name of Emperor Chong'an, but they must all know the name of Shi Rongfeng and have endless reverence.
It was the Great General Shi who guarded Mobei, and deterred the covetous Tartars and Oaras, so that Daqi could be free from war and stabilized to this day.
If Lin Xi was really General Shi's child, then he really did a great deed when he took the risk of adopting Lin Xi!
Compared to Yu Zheng, who was both surprised and happy, with complicated emotions, Lin Xi was always in a state of confusion.
He forgot about his childhood, but when he heard Lu Qing talking about it, his mind was blurry like a glimpse of light.
Lu Qing waited patiently for the adoptive father and son to digest the information before slowly asking, "Mr. Yu, are you willing to help General Shi to recognize his only son?"
Yu Zheng patted Lin Xi on the back. Although he was reluctant to give up, after struggling for a while, he nodded: "Even if Lin Xi is not General Shi's child, since he didn't intend to abandon him, he should return to his biological parents."
"What about you?" Lu Qing turned to Lin Xi and asked, "Lin Xi, are you willing to find your biological father?"
If he was not impressed by what Lu Qingze said, Lin Xi would shake his head without hesitation.
But he did vaguely remember something, so he fell silent, neither vetoed nor agreed immediately.
Such a reaction was expected by Lu Qingze and Ning Juan.
Ning Juan watched coldly for a long time, and then said, "Where was the token you picked up when you met Lin Xi?"
Yu Zheng gave Lin Xi a reassuring look, and took out a jade pendant from his arms: "These days, the grass people have returned to Yujiacun's house to get some things, and just happened to bring out the jade pendant. Your Majesty, please take a look."
Changshun lowered his head to take the jade pendant and presented it to Ning Juan.
The jade pendant is quite delicate, with a special character carved on it.
There was a faint trace of blood between the crevices.
"It's the symbol of the Mobei Shijia Army."
The final word.
Lu Qing was relieved.
Totally sure.
Seeing that Lin Xi still can't get back to his senses, Lu Qing can also guess his entanglement, and he can't help but feel a little more pity, and his tone is more gentle: "Lin Xi, if you are undecided, go back and discuss with your family first. , how? I think you should want to accompany us back to see General Shi."
Lin Xi opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but then he remembered that he couldn't speak, so he had to stretch out his hand and gesture: Thank you.
Yu Zheng's mood was also extremely complicated. After bowing, he took Lin Xi back to the small courtyard where he was temporarily staying.
Ning Juan didn't say a few words during the whole process, but when he saw Lu Qing, his mouth was dry, and he secretly pushed the tea cup beside him: "Teacher, drink some tea."
Lu Qing didn't care, he took it and drank it.
The corners of Ning Juan's mouth twitched. In order to prevent him from discovering the problem, he asked casually, "Teacher, do you think Lin Xi will come back to Beijing with us?"
Lu Qing was really distracted, and glanced at him: "I would like to ask, if he doesn't want to, what does His Majesty plan to do?"
On weekdays, Lu Qing used to address Ning Juan by his nickname, and in front of outsiders he called him "Your Majesty" seriously. When the two of them got along in private, they seldom called him that. His identity, sometimes... not so serious, with a bit of a sarcastic tone.
I didn't feel it before, but now I hear Lu Qing call me so seriously... I can't help but feel itchy.
Ning Wan lowered her eyelids and smiled: "Why did the teacher ask that?"
If Lin Xi refused, it would be a little more troublesome to let Zheng Yao knock people out and take them away.
What kind of bad thoughts could he have?
Lu Qing guessed Ning Juan's bad intentions with a guess, but if Lin Xi didn't agree, he would have to use some extraordinary means to achieve his goal, so he had to acquiesce: "You...have you decided who will assist Fan Xingyan?"
"Well," Ning Juan nodded, "Yu Shurong."
Yu Shurong just came back from the river bank tiredly, and the word "dai" in the name of Dai Zhifu was crossed out.
Lu Qing teased: "Oh? You punished him for copying, but I thought you didn't like people."
Ning Lan: "…"
I don't know how to explain this fact. If it is explained clearly, the teacher will probably be scared away.
He curled the corners of his lips helplessly.
Forget it, fine for copying.
After another two days, Ning Juan gradually delegated power to Fan Xingyan and Yu Shurong, and gradually resigned from Jiangyou's management.
There was also a stream of good news from the patient's office. Xu Shu's prescription saved tens of thousands of patients who were on the brink of life and death.
There was a countermeasure against the plague, the river embankment was completed, and all the prefectures piled up food for disaster relief, just waiting for the flood to recede.
The chaotic Jiang You was finally brought into order, and the remaining ailments and repairs were left to Fan Xingyan and Yu Shurong to solve.
Just like what Lu Qingze said, Jiang You's current situation can be managed by the rice chicken.
In three days, Concubine Jing's death anniversary, and the time to go to Jiangsu and Zhejiang is relatively tight. Fortunately, Ning Juan had already made preparations and explained everything in an orderly manner.
Lin Xi had been a little ostrich for a few days. He was reluctant to live with his family and wanted to see General Shi. He was uncertain and had a hard time deciding.
Seeing that Ning Juan was about to leave Ji'an Mansion, Yu Zheng had a hot temper and couldn't bear it, so he tied Lin Xi up early that morning and threw it to Zheng Yao.
Lin Xi stared blankly at Zheng Yao's vicious face, so scared that he silently retreated into the carriage with tears in his eyes, daring not to struggle any more.
Zheng Yao grinned and said, "Don't worry, Yu Chatou, I will take good care of Young Master Xiao Lin."
Lu Qing sat in the softly paved carriage and couldn't help laughing when he heard Chen Xiaodao running to talk about it.
Although they were all kidnapped, being kidnapped by Yu Zheng was different from being kidnapped by Zheng Yao... It was a good thing.
Early in the morning, there was only a trace of morning light leaking from the horizon, and the city was silent. The accompanying 300 Imperial Guards and 300 Jinyi Guards opened the way, guarding a carriage, and headed out of the city.
Ning Juan's eyes signaled Changshun to throw Chen Xiaodao away, and the surroundings were clean, so he patted his leg in satisfaction, trying to tempt Lu Qingze: "It's so early, teacher, would you like to lie on my lap and sleep for a while?"
Lu Qing yawned and glanced at him in disgust: "No, it's too hard. Wouldn't it be softer than lying on your lap when I lie on the quilt?"
Ning Lan: "…"
When they were about to leave the city, there was a sudden commotion outside.
Ning Juan frowned and knocked on the wall of the carriage: "What happened outside?"
Zheng Yao rode a horse and stayed outside, and when he heard the sound, he reined in his horse and replied with a low waist: "Your Majesty, the people are bidding you farewell."
Jiang You's original team disturbed the people and wanted to knock their bones and **** their marrow. So many people died, and they didn't necessarily care.
Those who were shot to death, buried alive, and almost burned to death at Lingshan Temple are proof of this.
For more than a month after Ning Juan came, corrupt officials were arrested and killed, and the people regained a place to live, to eat and clothe themselves, and to have treatment strategies. Slowly there has been an improvement.
In the final analysis, the requirements of ordinary people are not high. As long as they have a place to live, they can eat and wear warmly, and they can live in peace.
The sky was only bright, and the two sides were actually full of people who came to see them off, the old and the weak, women and children, and bowed deeply towards the carriage that was running on the reels.
Calls came from all directions: "Your Majesty Yongfu!"
Noisy, but sincere and warm.
Ning Lian was stunned.
Lu Qing lifted the curtain and looked outside, with a smile on his face and a radiance in his eyes: "Your Majesty, do you hear? The people are calling to bless you."
In the future, his Xiaoguoguo will be named Qingshi, and will last forever.
The cool wind blew in from the carriage window, not so dry. The breeze swayed Lu Qingze's forehead, and the morning light outlined his face to be almost holy and beautiful.
Lu Qing was looking outside.
Ning Wan was looking at him.
After a long while, Ning Juan smiled slightly: "Well."
The author has something to say:
Ning Juan: When will Lu Qing find out that he has grown up?
Guo'er, isn't it up to you?
Guoguo attacked, so Guobao made a special attack.
