Chapter 22, Disaster Falls from Heaven
Mu Xuanyang, who got the news, ordered someone to call Wei Ming, the commander of the palace, as soon as he returned to the West Cross Courtyard. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Wei Ming looked about twenty-seven or eight years old, five feet eight inches tall. He was still wearing the clothes of the Lu Mansion, with a plain appearance but bright eyes, and a sword in his hand.
"Subordinate Wei Ming, I've seen the third young master!" The commander of the palace is also from the official position of the fifth grade.
But no matter how beautiful Wei Ming was outside, when he saw Mu Xuanyang, he was still respectful, and he didn't dare to have a trace of slackness.
Their team of guards was ordered by King Yan. In addition to protecting the safety of the third young master, he also shoulders a secret mission.
"I just heard from Mr. Lu that the Huai River is flooded, and the post road to Suzhou has been flooded!"
"You will send a few people early tomorrow morning to investigate along the way. If the road is really difficult, we won't stay here for a few more days!"
At the beginning, his father ordered him to come to worship his ancestors, but he did not stipulate a time, but only ordered him to enter Beijing before the first snow of the poor yin and the first snow.
Mu Xuanyang was already disgusted with going to Beijing as a hostage, and if he could enter Beijing later, he would be happy to see it.
"Yes, my subordinates will send someone to investigate early tomorrow morning!" Wei Ming ordered.
Mu Xuanyang also told Wei Ming to restrain his subordinates and not to make trouble in the Lu Mansion. After asking about the resettlement of these people, he ordered them to retreat.
Mu Xuanyang also rushed for a day, and after eating wine in the rain, he was also a little sleepy at this time, and after ordering the sword scabbard and the sword blade to take turns, he fell asleep deeply.
Lu Chengyao ate the wine and went back to the "Siyi Garden" to rest. Only then did the Yun family learn that the third master was entertaining the third son of the Yan Wangfu.
"Master, the third son of King Yan has a noble status, and only the guests are left in the West Cross Courtyard, will it be a simple nobleman?"
"Although it is only our family in the inner courtyard of Zhongju, there are maids and wives in several courtyards, which is always a little inconvenient!"
"Although the West Cross Courtyard has been used as a place for children to be enlightened over the years, it was originally a residence for guest residences, and it can't be called simple!"
"And there is a corner gate facing the street on the side of the west wall of the West Courtyard, Third Young Master Mu can also make it easier for them to enter and exit, and they don't always have to send someone to greet us, because the husband has ordered someone to guard the corner gate!"
The husband and wife chatted a few more words, and then they both stopped.
Early the next morning, Wei Ming still sent someone to inform Lu Chengyao. Only then did he take a few powerful people out of Huaiyuan County and go all the way to Suzhou.
And after Lu Chengyao came to visit Mu Xuanyang in the morning, he instructed the servant and the cook to serve carefully, and then went to the outer courtyard to do his own business.
This is two days, and the news that Wei Ming brought back is really the same as what Lu Chengyao said at the beginning.
Most of the road to Suzhou has been flooded, and if you force the way, I am afraid that you will really encounter danger.
Mu Xuanyang had no choice but to go to see Lu Chengyao, and once again said that he would disturb Lu Mansion for a few more days, and sent a thank you gift. Lu Chengyao naturally wouldn't accept the thank you gift, and the two of them were polite again.
On the fifth day of Mu Xuanyang's visit to Lu Mansion, in addition to having a drink with Lu Chengyao every night, the two of them were usually busy with their own affairs, after all, this man is different from a woman, he will not be idle, so he will gather together to chat.
However, after that day, Lu Ruxue did not send anyone to greet Hou, nor did she order her subordinates to bring food over. Both of them knew about each other's existence, but they didn't send anyone to inquire about each other.
These days, Lu Ruxue is even more cautious, so that her parents did not find the injuries on her hands and the bruises on her body.
It's just that outside Huaiyuan County, for several days, a lot of victims came.
Lord Yuan, the magistrate of the county, came to discuss with Lu Sanye, and wanted to set up some porridge shacks outside the city, so as not to prevent these hungry victims from rushing into the county seat and disrupting the order in the city.
This kind of thing, in Huaiyuan County, has always been led by the Lu Mansion of the Rail World. That's why Lord Yuan asked for the Lu Mansion.
"Why does Lord Yuan need to be so polite, it's just to set up a porridge shed, Lu Mou will order someone to prepare, and the porridge shed will be erected outside the north gate before noon!"
"It's just that this guard matter, there is still Lord Lao Yuan!"
It's nothing for the Lu Mansion to send people to give porridge, and the mansion is not short of these grains, and Lu Chengyao's only concern is safety.
After all, these are the victims of the disaster who have been hungry for several days, and if they rush up, they will be in the Lu Mansion and these families in the hospital, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect them.
"This is nature, this is nature, please rest assured!" Lu Fu and the county government are not the first day to work together, but they also have a bit of tacit understanding.
After sending away Lord Yuan, Lu Chengyao ordered Lu Younian, who was in charge, to pass the matter into the inner courtyard for his wife to know. Ask her to help arrange some manpower to go to the porridge shed outside the city to help make porridge.
While instructing Lu Feng to send the news to his daughter in the "Dian Medicine Garden", let her help his wife take care of the inner courtyard.
The porridge shed was built quickly, but it was just a few sheds with wood, and a few large cauldrons were set up, and a few rough mothers-in-law in the house were used to boil some thin porridge.
This porridge is not full, but it is just filled with water. It's just that before this porridge was served in the evening, someone suddenly vomited dirt, or even worse, fell to the ground directly.
For a while, there were people who didn't know the reason, shouting that the porridge was poisonous and something like that, and a group of people surrounded the porridge shed in Lufu at once.
The official is unknown, but seeing the victims who fell one after another, he had to suspect that there was something wrong with the porridge in the Lu Mansion, and he hurriedly went to the county government to invite Lord Yuan.
Lord Yuan brought the doctor from Jishantang to see these people, and the doctor didn't know if he had any peace of mind or because his medical skills were not good, so he even thought that there was something wrong with the porridge.
Lord Yuan had to send someone to the Lu Mansion and invited Lu Sanye to the Yamen.
"Lu Sanye's personality Yuan can be trusted, and Sanye's benevolence is not once or twice, and he will never give problematic porridge to the victims!"
"But these people have a problem because they ate Lu Fu's porridge. Third master, do you think that the people in the house are hiding what you have done?"
Although this is above the county government hall, Lord Yuan is still very polite when he speaks.
"Lord Yuan, Lu Mou has always sat upright when he asked himself, and the subordinates of the Lu Mansion did not dare to do that disobedient thing to the master!"
"And if Lu was dissatisfied and took out any problematic grain, it would be better to refuse Lord Yuan's invitation on the spot!"
In this way, even if someone criticizes it for a few sentences, at least it will not damage the reputation of the Lu Mansion. Why do such a thankless task!"
"Lu Mou thought, Lord Yuan might as well go and check it again? Lu Mou believes that all this must be just a misunderstanding!"
Lu Chengyao believed that he was innocent, because when the grain was out of the warehouse, he personally checked it, and there would never be a problem.
And the porridge is boiled by a few mothers-in-law from the east kitchen of the inner courtyard, even if these people do not do their best work on weekdays, but they just boil porridge with water, and they don't make any delicacies, and there will never be any problems.
Lord Yuan also knew that this matter was too strange, but before he couldn't find the problem, he couldn't just let Lu Sanye go home.
