The author brings Yun Shu, asks for recommendation votes, collects, and rewards! Momda
Yun Shu put down the chopsticks and lowered his eyes in contemplation. Although this speculation is too bold and has no real evidence, this speculation has taken root in Yun Shu's heart.www.biquge.info
She thought carefully about what had happened after the plague in her previous life. After thinking about it carefully, she ordered with a calm face: "Zhuxiang, you ordered to go down and call the housekeeper Chang over." After the evening meal, I have something important to discuss. β
"No." Then Zhuxiang immediately went out of the outer room and ordered a maid to go to the front yard.
About a quarter of an hour later. The maidservant who guarded the door came to report: "Little lady, Butler Chang is already waiting." Can you meet now? β
Yun Shu put down the chopsticks and said, "I know." β
Zhuxiang waved away the maidservant and came to Yun Shu's side. After serving Yun Shu to wash up, he carried Yun Shu out of the outer room. and placed on the waist that had been prepared for a long time. After Yun Shu sat down, he came to the side of his waist and called, "Get up, go to the hall." The same was followed by more than ten maidservants.
When I got to the corridor of the hall, I stopped and steadied myself. Zhuxiang carried Yun Shu into the hall. When the thick futon is ready, Yun Shu is placed on the main seat.
After Yun Shu sat down, he said, "Set up a screen." β
"No."
After everything was in order, Yun Shu said, "Call Steward Chang in." Zhuxiang, you lead them down. And keep watch at the door, and don't let people in. β
"No."
After a while, Steward Chang walked into the hall and saw a shadowy figure behind the screen. Then he saluted and said, "Little lady, I don't know what you are doing with calling the old slave?" β
Yun Shu stretched out his hand and said, "Steward Chang, no courtesy." I called you here this time, but there are a few questions to ask. β
Steward Chang pondered for a while, glanced at the shadow behind the screen suspiciously, and then said, "Little lady, please write." β
"What I want to ask is, is Jingzhao Prison the first place in the entire capital where the epidemic was discovered?"
"Back to the little lady, according to the palace people who preached the sage's oral message today, the place where the epidemic was first discovered was not Jingzhao Prison. It seems that a farm in the suburbs was the first to be infected with the epidemic, but it was not discovered at first, so it became more and more intense. Originally, the saint wanted to press it, but he didn't release it. But yesterday all the people in my house suffered from this disease, so they couldn't hide it. β
Yun Shu listened to the housekeeper's report, pondered for a while, and asked, "Do you know which family's private property the farm where the epidemic occurred in the first place?" β
"The old slave really knows this. The land was fertile and productive. It was originally a family property purchased by the Yu family in Jingzhou in Beijing in the early years, and later sold it because of the family's decline. At that time, the lady also asked me to pay attention to whether I could buy it back. Later, it was the first to be boarded by the upstart Rongfu. β
"Rongfu? Which Rongfu? β
"Back to the little lady, it is Lingzhou Rongfu, the maiden home of the saint's current favored concubine Niangniang."
"What?" Yun Shu said silently.
Steward Chang looked at the figure behind the screen in surprise, and asked with concern, "Little lady, is there something wrong?" β
Yun Shu suppressed the shock in his heart, and then asked, "I'm fine." Can the housekeeper know where else the epidemic is more serious? β
Steward Chang pressed the doubts in his heart and replied: "The eldest brother of the queen mother was diagnosed with this disease three days ago. And now I don't know who is going to work, I'm afraid it's not good. β
After hearing this, Yun Shu took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and asked, "Is there anything else?" β
"Lord Cui of the Zhongshu Order, Lord Li of the Left Servant of Shangshu, Lord Luo of the General of the Zheng Army, Lord Lu of the Hubu Shangshuγ...... There are also several adults who came to the house today to preside over the mourning, and all of them were closed in the house to recuperate according to the instructions of the saints. After the epidemic is over, I will go out of the house to run errands. β
Yun Shu loosened the placket of his tightly clutched clothes, slowed down, and then said in a slightly astringent voice: "Steward Chang, you count carefully, the adults you said were trapped in the mansion because of the epidemic. What will happen if there is no one in their official position for a while? And at this time, the epidemic happened in their house, will they escape this catastrophe, if one or two misfortunes happen, then what will happen to this government? β
Steward Chang was the person Yun Shu Aye valued the most during his lifetime, and in his early years, he followed her Aya to fight in the north and south, and he also knew a little about the political affairs of the court. As soon as he heard Yun Shu's words, Steward Chang thought about it carefully, and at the same time broke out in a cold sweat. He opened his mouth a few times, but finally swallowed it. said: "Little lady, there are saints who personally inquire about major affairs in the court. We are fortunate to have survived the house safely. β
After listening to Steward Chang's words, Yun Shu pressed the shock in his heart and said, "Yes, the epidemic is not a disease that can be reversed by manpower. It is advisable for my house to protect itself. However, you should be measured in this matter, and you must not go wrong at this critical juncture. There are some things that we have to guard against. If there is a major transfer in the Second Military and Political Department, how to do things in our house must be arranged first. β
"The old slave understands."
"So I have a few important things to ask you to handle."
"Little lady, please speak clearly."
"The first important thing is to send people outside the house to buy more medicinal materials, especially rhubarb, atractylodes, bellflower, cinnamon, Shu pepper, aconite, and sarsa. Remember to buy it anyway.
The second thing is that although those tribes are listed as slaves, they have nothing to do with my general's mansion. However, if the master is from the scene, he should still send some medicine to talk about comfort.
The third important thing is that because of the epidemic at this time, Yunxian Botong is in prison, and I am afraid that it will not be good at this moment. His exile will also be delayed for some time. During this period, if you let the townsman think of a way to turn things around. I'm afraid I'm going to be restless again. So the housekeeper must have arranged a good person, and at this critical juncture, he kept an eye on the Yunxian Bofu.
Fourth, the few adults who came to the mansion today to preside over the affairs were also dragged down by our mansion, so they sent someone to send some medicinal herbs over. To apologize. β
After listening to Yun Shu's instructions, Steward Chang responded in a deep voice: "No." β
Sui Yunshu said: "This matter is bothering the housekeeper to worry a lot. β
"The little lady is serious."
"Steward Chang, I know that you are the old man of my Yun clan, and you know a lot about things in the clan. So Shu'er has one more thing to do if you are told. That is to bother you to arrange for someone to carefully investigate the elders of the clan. Who have they been getting close to lately? At the same time, find out which elders' henchmen have been arranged in Jinzhou to enter the capital. After entering Beijing, who did you go to? β
Steward Chang raised his head in surprise, and immediately lowered his head and asked, "Little lady, can the old slave dare to ask?" β
Yun Shu knew the personality of Steward Chang and knew what he wanted to ask, so he said directly: "The onset of the epidemic is at least three days after contact with the person with the epidemic, and so many people in my General's Mansion are sick almost at the same time on the same day, don't you think it's strange?" When they are sick, where is the sword? I can't afford to think too much about it. β
