"Master."

"Oh my God!" I was so frightened that I took a few steps back, and I threw everything in my hand away.

Wang Jie hurriedly stepped forward to support me, and he lifted the lantern in his hand up so that I could see his face clearly.

Seeing that it was Wang Jie, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next time you come to see me, don't bring a lamp, I think moonlight is enough for me to see you." I said to him earnestly.

Wang Jie was speechless, after he helped me steady, he bent down to pick up the things I dropped one by one, and helped me hold an umbrella by the way.

"Why is the master's face so bad?" Wang Jie couldn't help but be a little worried when he saw that my face was pale and trembling.

"Ahem!" I covered my mouth and coughed twice, "I'm fine, I had some chills the other day." ”

Wang Jie didn't believe it, but because of my temper, he didn't ask much.

"This is the current situation in Tuzhou." Wang Jie took out a fold from his sleeve and handed it to me: "The three counties in the state have been occupied by the rebels, although our army has attacked from time to time, but only defeated but not victorious, now the morale of the army is very low, and many people in the city have moved their families. ”

"Where's Vice Lieutenant Ge Jun?"

"I arrived in Tuzhou a month ago, and now I am stationed at the junction of Tuzhou and Xiaoyuan Town."

Well, this Ge Jun still has some brains.

"Tuzhou has been defeated again and again, can its prefect do something?"

"There was no movement."

I paced back and forth and said, "I will arrive in Tuzhou in seven days, and I hope to come out to meet you." ”

Wang Jie glanced at me, saw that my expression was the same, and then ordered, "My subordinates know." ”

"Also," I thought for a moment, and then said, "There is no way to avoid the snow disaster in Tuzhou, you first privately raise money among gentlemen and wealthy businessmen, and you tell them that as long as it is the largest voluntary donation and reaches a thousand taels, the prime minister will definitely ask the emperor for a decree to give him the title of imperial businessman, but if there is a donation of less than ten taels, he will be beheaded on the spot for treason." Move fast, don't hesitate, you know? ”

"Yes."

"Remember, the head will fall, and the whole family will be destroyed, and you must not be merciful."

"Yes, my subordinates know."

I covered my mouth and coughed a few more times, and the winter snow was inhaled into my body, and I shivered with cold.

Wang Jie saw that I was so afraid of the cold, so he took off his cloak and draped it over me.

"It's better for the master to wear more every day."

"I... Ahem... Got it, you should hurry up and go to Tuzhou... Ahem..."

Wang Jie knew that this matter could not be delayed, so he handed me the umbrella, immediately saluted and retired, walked out of the forest, and walked across the horse.

I placed the extinguished lantern on the fork of a tree, put Wang Jie's cloak on it, wrapped my robe tightly, and walked back step by step.

The next day, Dr. Wang came to look for me, he was originally looking for Lord Sun, but after searching for a long time in the inn, he did not see the shadow of Lord Sun.

"My lord, what about Lord Sun? The grass people still have some medicinal herbs to ask him. ”

I placed a new copy of the approved fold on top of the one I had already reviewed, put down my pen, and I stood up and moved my stiff muscles.

"He has taken a step in advance, and if something happens in the future, you can just come directly to the original appearance."

Doctor Wang said: "The grass people have something to discuss with the adults. Yesterday, the people sent out by Lord Sun to buy medicine came back, empty-handed, and did not buy anything. He told the grass people that all the herbalists in the neighborhood had stopped selling medicines, and said that they would only open in a month to sell medicines, and that if anyone needed them urgently, they would have to buy them at a high price. He couldn't make up his mind, so he came back and asked. Your Excellency, look at this matter......"

He's finally starting to get started.

I asked Dr. Wang, "How many herbs do we have in our carriage?" ”

"It's not much, it's just some tonic for you."

I sat back in my chair, picked up my pen, spread out a piece of rice paper and began to write, and after a while I stopped writing, folded it twice, and put it in the envelope I carried with me.

"Someone."

Immediately outside the door, an attendant entered: "The subordinate is here." ”

"Quickly hand over this letter to the history of the Qizhou assassin."

"Yes."

The attendant took the letter and went out of the chamber.

Qizhou? It seems that it is not too far from Tuzhou, there is a river in the middle, and it takes about ten days to come and go. What did the Prime Minister send someone to Qizhou to do?

Dr. Wang was puzzled, but he knew what he should ask and what he should not ask.

"Your Excellency looks much better today than yesterday?"

"yes." I nodded, "Thanks to your good care." ”

Doctor Wang didn't dare to take credit: "If the adults can follow the doctor's instructions, the grass people don't have to worry all day long."

I coughed twice in embarrassment.

"The snow is falling well today, and I really want to go outside to enjoy the snow. According to you, doctor, I might go out now? ”

Doctor Wang said, "Your body is only a little better than yesterday, if you really want to go out, the grass people also ask your adult to send someone to set up a shed where you want to enjoy the scenery, surround it with a veil, hang down a bamboo curtain around it, and place a charcoal fire." ”

So troublesome?

I sighed, "That's it, that's it, I'd better talk to the proprietress about it." ”

Dr. Wang secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

This prime minister is really not afraid of tossing, how is her body, will she not feel it?

Snow viewing? Doesn't that have to be rewarded with a life?

Dr. Wang opened the door and I followed.

When I came to the counter, I looked at the proprietress with a smile on my face.

"Childe is... Is there something going on?" Faced with the sudden handsome young man, the proprietress was a little overwhelmed.

"Nothing, nothing." Seeing that the beauty was frightened, I quickly waved my hand and shook my head.

"That's ......," the proprietress looked at me inexplicably.

I took a jade pendant from my waist and placed it on the counter.

"Does my sister think this jade pendant looks good?"

The jade pendant is shiny and shiny, the jasper is like frost, and the orchids carved on it are even more lifelike, and the posture is graceful, and the proprietress can't help but touch it with her hands.

"It's warm!" She was surprised.

The tentacles are warm, the color is like frost, and the best jade is also.

I smiled and said, "If my sister likes it, take it, and make it a small gift." ”

The proprietress has been a little old since she opened the shop, and she still understands the truth that 'there is no free lunch in the world'.

"If there is something wrong with Childe, you might as well say it directly." The proprietress didn't go to get the jade pendant.

I don't care at all about the hostess's vigilance.

"Sister, don't be nervous, I just want to ask my sister a few simple questions."

Hearing that I just wanted to ask a few questions, the hostess felt a little relieved.

She expected that this pampered boy and brother should be going out for the first time, and wanted to inquire about some interesting things.

The jade pendant is quietly placed there, and it also quietly exudes an attractive luster.

The proprietress was impressed.

"What does Childe want to ask?" The proprietress took out a brocade handkerchief from her arms to cover the jade pendant, she saw that I had no different color, and quickly put the jade pendant back into her arms together, "The little woman must know everything, and she must say everything." ”

I pretended not to see her secretly hiding, and just said casually, "It's nothing, I just want to ask my sister, have you ever had any interesting people staying here during this time?" ”

The proprietress thought for a moment and said, "Recently, there are no special people who come to stay, they are all ordinary woodcutters and butchers who come here to drink." ”

I grabbed a handful of peanuts from the color plate in front of her and peeled them one by one.

"Woodcutter? Did you go up to the mountains to fetch firewood?"

"yes."

With such a good-looking face as mine dangling in front of her, and "sister" one by one, the proprietress couldn't help but soften her voice.

"What about the butcher? What's that for? ”

The proprietress dialed her abacus with her hand, and said disgustedly, "That's the one who kills and sells pigs in the wanton shop." Childe, don't be curious about this, those bloody things will definitely collide with Childe. ”

I nodded instructively, "Well, I see, I've been most afraid of blood since I was a child." ”

Blood?

The proprietress had a flash of inspiration in her head.

"That's right." The proprietress seemed to think of something, opened the accounts and checked, then pointed to a place and said, "A few months ago, a group of people came to my inn, but only two or three of them were left, and the rest had lunch and left. Their leading son looks like a young man about the same as you, but he is far worse than you when he speaks, and if it weren't for the face of his bloodied men, he would probably not have been killed in my small and simple inn, the only small inn in ten miles and eight towns!"

This... This is indeed Gu Yuancheng's style.

I couldn't help but snicker in my heart, sure enough, the eyes of the world are bright, Gu Yuancheng is a king bastard, he is a king everywhere he goes, and he is an eyesore.

I hurriedly pretended to be a good person to comfort the proprietress, "Sister, don't be angry, there are many people in this world with eyes on the top of their heads, if we all worry about him, won't we have to spend our lives in anger?" ”

The proprietress smiled and said, "Childe, how many little girls' hearts are going to be fascinated by this mouth?" I've seen a lot of the world, otherwise I would have had to fold on you. ”

"What did my sister say? My family education is very strict, and I only deal with those five classics and four books, rice paper, pen and ink on weekdays, how have I ever seen a beauty like my sister? "I went on to pat myself on the back.

The proprietress covered her mouth and smiled, but she was a little embarrassed to be praised by me.

When I saw that she was happy, I asked, "Does that sister know when the injured man left?" ”

The proprietress looked at the account book and said, "I left three days ago, and the wound was still bleeding when I left." ”

Yes, Gu Yuancheng sneaked up on the prince that day, I took the opportunity to order Sun Hu to inform Yang Jie and let him ambush at the gate of the city to attack Gu Yuancheng and others, Yang Jie's ability is something she can trust, Gu Yuancheng did not enter the ambush It was her expectation, but Chen Yi was able to escape from Yang Jie's hands and fell unexpectedly, but even if he escaped, I am sure that he will definitely not be less injured than mine.

"Sister thinks I'm good-looking, or is that nostril-facing good-looking?"

The proprietress couldn't help laughing, "In the end, the grade is small, competitive, and everything has to be compared." ”
