The day in April gradually warmed up, a carriage, a few fast horses quietly left from Jiangcheng County, all the way north, stepped through the mountains, rivers and meadows of the town, from the quiet field, to the bustling Fucheng, took a boat and traveled along the water, after more than half a month, I can already see the prosperous capital from afar.

Descending from the pier, the group made makeshift repairs in a nearby town.
After days of running, Hua Jincheng's face was not so good, and she fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
Although Lingxue Lingliu is also a little tired, it is much better than Li'er and Hua Jincheng.
Lingliu stayed by Hua Jincheng's bedside, and then let them rest.
After Hua Jincheng woke up, Lingliu asked the shopkeeper to send some food.
"Master, how are you feeling?"
"It's uncomfortable." Hua Jincheng wrinkled her brows, her face was a little pale, and she was tossed by water and land, but her previous body could withstand it, and now she has not fallen, she admires herself a little.
Hua Jincheng only ate a little, and then after bathing, he fell asleep again.
Lingliu invited the doctor to come over to show her, and the doctor only said that it was because she was too tired, so she prescribed a pair of medicine to Lingliu, and asked her to grab the medicine according to the prescription and rest in the inn for five or six days, then it would be fine.
It was also for this reason that they all proposed to rest in the town for a while before leaving, and anyway, there was only half a day's journey left, and it didn't matter when they left.
Hua Jincheng thought about it for a while and agreed, he was enough to worry about himself, if he insisted, he would only cause trouble to others.
Lingxue and Li'er couldn't stay, and Lingliu was there, so Hua Jincheng also let them go out to play, and by the way, he also opened a book list, preparing to pass the time like this in the next few days.
They stayed in the town for five days, and Hua Jincheng's health slowly improved, but just as they were about to leave, Li'er suddenly fell ill.
Pear's illness came very suddenly and urgently, and they had no precautions at all.
Lingxue ran out to invite the doctor to come over as soon as possible, and as soon as she left the door of the inn, she found that the whole town had completely changed.
In the old days, there were few people in the lively streets, and the doors of the merchants were tightly guarded, and the streets were silent, like a dead city.
Ling Xue took the doctor to the inn, her face was heavy.
Everyone saw the difference, but they didn't say anything.
The doctor was frightened and checked Li'er's pulse, but before he could say the result, the door was kicked open.
Hua Jincheng's fingers trembled slightly, and a bad premonition rose in his heart.
"Who are you?"
Ling Xue strode to the door, looking at those people in official uniforms, her whole heart sank suddenly.
The leader was dressed in a red official uniform, wearing a scimitar at his waist, wearing a black official hat, his eyebrows were like mountains, and his eyes were like swords, he glanced at the people in the room, and his eyes fell on Li'er, "What's wrong with that person?" ”
"Your Excellency." The doctor seemed to have seen a life-saving straw, and crawled in front of the man, "My lord, the woman on the bed has the plague, please hurry up and isolate the person, and the people here, none of them can be spared, they may have been infected!" ”
"You're full of nonsense!" Ling Xue's face changed, it was actually the plague, no wonder there were so few people on the street today, when did it start? Why did these people come so quickly?
"Take them all away and isolate them!"
"I'll see who dares to do it!" Ling Xue stopped in front of those people, and there was a strong evil aura in her eyebrows, "This person is obviously full of nonsense, my sister is just an ordinary wind cold, why did it become a plague when it fell into his mouth?" ”
"Really, it's really the plague, I, I can't be mistaken!" The doctor blushed and was not too old, "The plague in the town only broke out in the early hours of this morning, I was reluctant to come out for treatment, who knew that this person pulled me out without saying a word, and smashed my shop, if it was just an ordinary wind and cold, would she be in such a hurry?" My lord, the villain's words are true, that girl is indeed the plague! ”
"I wonder where you came from?"
Hua Jincheng got up and put her palm on Ling Xue's shoulder, signaling her not to act rashly.
"Where does this official come from, and what does it have to do with you?" The young man wrinkled his eyebrows and looked at Hua Jincheng, looked people up and down a few times, and then waved his hand, "Take them all!" ”
"Who dares to move!"
Mu Yizhi and a few people came in from outside the door, and the sharp weapon was unsheathed, exuding a dangerous light.
"Stop!" Hua Jincheng wrinkled his eyebrows and shouted, "My lord, I can just go with you with my sister-in-law, none of them have been in contact with patients, so they will be fine." ”
"Master......"
"Shut up!"
Hua Jincheng glanced at them coldly, and then raised his eyes to look at the young man, "What do you think, adults?" ”
The young man pursed his lips and hesitated.
"Your Excellency, you have to think clearly, if we do fight, you may not be our opponent." Hua Jincheng sighed faintly.
"You threaten me?"
"The adults are high and powerful, we are just small businessmen, how dare we threaten the adults, if the adults are fair, they will naturally not act rashly, how to choose, please think twice." Hua Jincheng said with a smile, "Adults have to make a decision quickly, otherwise, maybe I will regret it in the next second." ”
"The girl is so bold, so please." The young man weighed the strength of both sides, and had no choice but to compromise.
Li'er was put on a stretcher, and Hua Jincheng followed her closely.
"Master......" Shi Shi and Wenren did not agree with her doing this.
When passing by Mu Yizhi's side, Hua Jincheng's lips moved, but there was no sound at all.
"Take care of yourself, master." Mu Yizhi knelt on one knee with his head bowed.
Those officers and soldiers came and went quickly, as soon as they left, before Lingxue could make a difficulty, Mu Yizhi put the sword back into the scabbard, "The master commanded, break it into pieces, go out of the city immediately, and meet in Ji'an City, no fighting, no conflict, the master has me to take care of it, Uncle Shi, you will meet in the Jin Palace, go and invite His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”
"Childe, please?" Shi Shi and they were all a little puzzled.
"The master said that the other party is coming for her, and he can't solve it if he is not the king of Jin." Mu Yizhi said solemnly, "Everyone take care." ”
He opened the window, flew down like a bird, and disappeared into the house in an instant.
"Do what Yi Zhi says." Shi Shi glanced at Wenren, then nodded, a few people went their separate ways out of the inn, and went out of the city from different places, and when the people behind came, there were already a few people in the inn.
"Chase me, order me to go down, Ji'an City is under martial law, and no one is allowed to enter or leave!" (To be continued.) )
