The high priest's team may have already arrived in Henan.

On the contrary, it was the county lord who had never met him, who delayed the return trip again and again, and regarded the lives of these soldiers as if they were a mustard.

The soldiers gradually transferred their dissatisfaction to the county lord.

The gate of the courtyard opened, and a man in black walked out of the courtyard: "You again?" ”

His tone was full of impatience, but he didn't embarrass the creep and leaned sideways to let the creep in.

The courtyard was shrouded in a faint moonlight, and the shadows of the trees were reflected on the ground, mottled and scattered. The little soldier walked into the courtyard alone, a little flustered.

They had been here for twenty days, but they had never seen the county lord for twenty days. In the past twenty days, he has been ordered by Lord Zhule to come here every day to call the county lord, but every time he can only talk to the county lord outside the room, he has never entered the room.

The little soldier stood outside the door: "County Lord, my subordinates are ordered by Lord Zhule, please go back with us." ”

The woman in the room was hunched on the table, writing something hard. Next to the desk was a crumpled crumpled pile of rice paper, some of which was already full of pages, and some of which had just been put down and had not yet written a single word.

Outside the door came her nasty words again.

The woman threw down the pen in her hand, got up and walked to the door of the house, and opened the door: "Don't rush, what's going on with that?" ”

The little soldier was startled by the woman's sudden movements, and hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Returning to the county lord, it has begun." First of all, the people in the north of the city had a problem, and today many people are going to see doctors, and the entrance of the medical hall is crowded with people. ”

Xiao Bing suppressed the panic in his heart and said the good words that he had prepared for a long time.

"You didn't lie to me?" The woman asked.

"The subordinates don't dare." The soldier hurriedly replied. Since the last time he was rectified by the county lord with Gu, he pulled his stomach for a day and a night, and the whole person collapsed, he no longer dared to lie in front of the county lord.

The woman looked down at Xiao Bing for a moment, and said lightly: "I know, you guys get ready, I'll go back with you in an hour." ”

With that, the woman turned and went back to the house and closed the door.

Xiao Bing has been rejected for the past 20 days, and today he suddenly heard that the county lord promised to go back with them, and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and he couldn't tell what the expression was on his face, so he ran out excitedly.

"Lord Target, the county lord agreed, the county lord agreed!" The little soldier ran all the way against the night breeze of early autumn, and cool sweat soaked from his forehead.

Target looked at the creep crawling in, quietly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "When will you leave?" ”

"The county lord said in an hour." The creep replied.

"Okay, tell the brothers to pack their bags. In the past few days, I have ordered people to survey the nearby terrain. This mountain is connected to Yanshan, and when you get out of Yanshan, you will arrive at Qingluo Town. Let's go directly to Qingluo Town, not the gate of the capital. Target patted the creep on the shoulder, in a happy mood.

He brought the county lord back to Nanling, which was a great achievement. With the protection of the king and the lord of the county, even if the high priest was dissatisfied with him, he did not dare to do anything to him.

Thinking about it like this, the smile on Target's face deepened.

After the soldier left, the woman returned to her desk and looked at the unfinished letter in a daze.

The letter was written over and over again, but she was always not satisfied. She's leaving, after doing so much for him.

The woman sighed, looked at the familiar furnishings in the room, and muttered, "It's not in vain that we get acquainted, and we'll meet again later." Xuanyuan Cheng, we are the enemy. ”

An hour later, the woman left the room with a small bag on her back, and her head was covered with a light black veil, which was so long and wild that it covered her mouth and nose, revealing only her smooth forehead and dark eyes.

Target Le was anxiously pacing outside the door, and when he saw her come out, he hurriedly greeted her: "Subordinate Target Le has seen the county lord. ”

The woman glanced at him lightly and said, "Let's go." ”

"Yes." He clenched his fists and turned to shout to the soldiers not far away, "Go!" ”

Soon after the woman left, the sky began to turn blue, and slowly the belly of the fish turned white, and a thin golden light emerged from the bottom of the mountain, like a naughty child.

A man in black left from the back door of the courtyard with the white belly of the fish.

It was more than half an hour before he returned to the compound. After the man returned, a small group of people in blue cloth walked in front of the courtyard and ran in the direction of Yanshan.

The sky was bright, a little light shone on the desk, and a piece of rice paper was spread on the desk, with only a few words on it: I'm gone, don't look for it.

――

Chu Yueqing turned over on the bed, and when her hand touched the empty bed board, she opened her misty eyes and realized little by little that Xuanyuan Hao had left Beijing for Jiangnan yesterday.

A hint of loss flashed in her heart, but she quickly pressed it down. She remembered that Fang Zi's matter, because she was too busy yesterday, she hadn't told the owner of Ou Zhuang yet.

Chu Yueqing thought about this, but while he was having breakfast, someone came in to report: Mrs. Ou is here.

"Invite my aunt in."

"Yes, Princess." The servant bowed his head and withdrew.

Not long after, Mrs. Ou came to Zhuxin Courtyard with a maid. Chu Yueqing hurriedly stood up and went to greet him: "Auntie, have you had breakfast?" ”

"Not yet," Mrs. Ou grabbed Chu Yueqing's arm as soon as she entered the door, and said anxiously: "I can't take care of these now, Qing'er, there is a plague outbreak in the capital." ”

"The plague?" Chu Yueqing shook Mrs. Ou's hand violently: "When was it, wasn't it okay yesterday?" ”

"No, Qing'er. The patients in the hospital yesterday were also suffering from the plague, do you remember that most of them had stomach aches yesterday? Mrs. Ou said: "Yesterday, I was a little strict, so I stayed in the hospital. Doctor Qin ordered the medicine boy to take care of them. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly coughed up blood in the middle of the night, and Dr. Qin was afraid that there would be another emergency, so he and Dr. Li in the medical hall were too busy. I ordered someone to go to the house to invite your uncle, and this morning, when I saw that your uncle had not returned for a long time, I went to the hospital in the north of the city to see him. Who knows, the streets are depressed, and from time to time there are people in the streets and alleys wearing white linen! ”

Chu Yueqing's expression was solemn and asked, "Auntie, is it my uncle who told you that the sudden illness that struck this time was the plague?" ”

Mrs. Ou shook her head and said, "No, I'll go see him." But he kept me out, and the infirmary was packed, and the patients today were in the same condition as the patients of yesterday. Isn't this a plague? ”

"Auntie, calm down first." Chu Yueqing pulled Mrs. Ou over and sat down at the table: "How is the patient who coughed up blood yesterday now?" ”

"I don't know, your uncle is still treating them." Mrs. Ou said.

"How many filial piety people are there?" Chu Yueqing asked, "Did these people go to the hospital yesterday for treatment?" ”
