Chapter 30, Ill-intentioned Speculation (January 21, 1st Update)
After a day and a night of treatment, Lu Chongyu's condition finally stabilized. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 At this time, Lord Yuan, the magistrate, came to visit in order to seek medicine.
"Ruxue, what do you think about this matter?" Lu Chengyao didn't understand the matter of this herb, so he asked his daughter what he meant.
"The herbs in my daughter's courtyard are only enough to heal the people in the house, and they can't be sent to Lord Yuan!"
But if she refuses directly, her daughter is worried that Lord Yuan will hold a grudge. According to the daughter's eyes, it is better for the father to do this!"
Lu Ruxue told her father what she thought, and Lu Chengyao, who listened, nodded again and again.
People are like this, when you have the ability but are unwilling to help, you will be hated by those who ask for the door to take advantage of the autumn wind.
But if you don't have the ability, you need these people to help you. They just can't avoid it, and they can't even draw a line with you.
This county magistrate Yuan usually calls Lu Chengyao a brother and a brother, to put it bluntly, he is just a friend of the city.
So when it was really a matter of life and death, in order to be able to keep his top black yarn, he was on his head. He will never be soft on the Lu Mansion. Therefore, this kind of person is not easy to get too close, and it cannot be easily offended.
"Good idea, my daughter Lu Chengyao really deserves to be the reincarnation of a fairy child!" Lu Chengyao's gloomy face rarely smiled because of his daughter's words.
"Father, you're showing up for yourself!"
Since Lu Ruxue locked herself and her brother in this small courtyard together, she has hardly spoken except for something to order. She's doing everything possible to save energy.
But seeing that her father was happy for her few words, she also had a rare sense of relief in her heart.
Before Lu Chengyao left, he took a deep look at his daughter, and then took the steward Lu Younian to the outer courtyard.
Lord Yuan sat in the side hall of the outer courtyard, and when he saw that a cup of tea was gone, he saw the subordinates of the Lu Mansion invite him to the study.
Before the person approached the study, he heard Lu Sanye's angry reprimand, even through the closed door, he could still hear it very clearly.
"I raised you slaves for nothing, and there is no medicine in the house, so you won't go out of the house to buy medicine, can it be that I can't let the master and me run errands?
There is no need to ask, just listening to it, you can know that it is the third master of the Lu Mansion who is reprimanding the minions.
"Third master, the gate of the mansion has been sealed by Lord Yuan, the magistrate, and the minions can't get out!"
"And according to the official who guarded the door, the pharmacy in the city had already been sold out. I'm afraid that all the pharmacies in Huaiyuan County have become decorations now!"
"Go, tell Steward Lu to get in. Tell him that if he can't get the medicine today, let him come and see him!"
Lu Chengyao's voice fell, and he saw that the door of the study was pushed open from the inside. A servant dressed as a servant ran out of the study without looking at Lord Yuan, but ran straight to the room.
Lord Yuan, this is a dilemma of riding a tiger. It was he who ordered the closure of the Lu Mansion, and now the lack of doctors and medicines in the Lu Mansion is all due to him. Now he has to lick his face and come to Lu Mansion to ask for medicine and prescriptions, how can he still open his mouth.
But the little guy on the side didn't seem to hear the third master being angry inside, so he directly opened the curtain of the study and replied inside.
"Third Master, Lord Yuan has something to do, come to see the third master!"
Lord Yuan had no choice but to walk in and bow to Lu Chengyao.
"Lord Yuan, what are you doing, Lu has no official or position, but he doesn't dare to accept such a big gift from an adult!"
"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go and serve tea to Lord Yuan!"
Lu Chengyao helped Lord Yuan up, and at the same time instructed the little people around him to go down and do things.
Lord Yuan carefully looked at Lu Chengyao's face, this third master was really kind, knowing that he heard the angry rebuke just now, but at this moment, there was no trace on his face, as if the person who lost his temper just now was not him, but someone else.
Before the tea could come up, he saw Steward Lu stumbling in from outside. When he saw Lord Yuan here, he just knelt on the ground for a while, but did not speak.
Where can Lord Yuan still sit, and he got up again to salute.
"Third Master Lu, under Yuan's panic yesterday, he had to order someone to seal the Lu Mansion, it was really Yuan who was not thoughtful, and he came to make amends to Lu Sanye today!"
"Lord Yuan is the governor of a city and a county, and he is in charge of the life and death of the people of a county. The child is indeed sick with the plague, and he should be dragged to a mass grave for isolation!"
"This is also thanks to Lord Yuan's affection with Lu Fu, so Lu Mou was allowed to bring the child back to the house for medical treatment!"
"It should be Lu who came to the door to thank him, how can Lord Lao Yuan come over in person. As for this pleading, Lu doesn't dare to do it!"
Lu Chengyao hurriedly returned the salute, no matter how angry he was in his heart, he would not show it at this time.
What my daughter said is right, as long as Lu Fu is still in Huaiyuan County for a day, people like Yuan Zhixian will not be offended.
"If Lord Yuan is only here to make amends, then Lu will not dare to keep guests. I didn't let outsiders listen to it, and I thought that Lufu Fox was a fake tiger and a bully!"
This breath in Lu Chengyao's heart is really difficult to calm, so the words he said are still less peaceful than before.
"Where is Lu Sanye talking about, who in Huaiyuan County doesn't know that Lu Fu has always been kind to people, and he can't spread such gossip!"
The words have already come to this, and Lord Yuan has also let it go. In order to keep the black yarn on his neck, he doesn't care about any face.
"Yesterday, the third young master of Yanwangfu went to the county office, and Yuan learned that the third young master Mu came to Huaiyuan County a few days ago, which is Yuan's dereliction of duty!"
"Fortunately, Third Young Master Mu has been living in the mansion, and with Third Master Lu's personality, he will not be a guest!"
"It's just that yesterday Yuan heard Third Young Master Mu mention that Third Master Lu has herbs and recipes for curing the plague here. ”
"Yuan only represents the people of a county, and he begs the third master to give medicine without hesitation, and he has saved the suffering of the people of a county!"
Lord Yuan's words can be regarded as pushing the whole matter to Mu Xuanyang.
and deducted a big hat for Lu Fu, if Lu Fu didn't come up with a medicinal herb recipe, then I would be sorry for the people of a county.
And he wants to put all his responsibilities on Lu Fu's body. Even if the emperor decrees a heavy responsibility in the future, he will have a statement to excuse himself, so as to reduce his punishment.
This person is so black-hearted that even if he dies, he will pull the back of the landing mansion. even pointed the contradiction between the two sides to Mu Xuanyang, the third son of Yanwangfu.
Thinking that even if Lu Fu knew that it was his conspiracy, it would be impossible to question the son of King Yan and be an enemy of the imperial family.
Lu Chengyao used to think that Lord Yuan was an official and upright, but now he knows that this person has such evil intentions, fortunately, he has already discussed it with his daughter, otherwise he will really be deceived by this Si.
