Chapter 138: Be sure to find that person

Wei Xun was originally aggressive, even if he couldn't hold Shen Bai and say one, two, three, four, he would take Murong Xuan away and torture him to vent his anger, but he didn't expect Gu Hengzhou to come so timely, and he heard the most critical sentence.

In front of Gu Hengzhou, Wei Xun's momentum weakened instantly, and he smiled curtly: "It's not a big deal, it's just that the lower officials listened to the merchants who came back from Yuanfeng County, and there seems to be a strange disease in the city of Yuanfeng County now, many people are weak and weak, sick, and the doctors in the city can't find out the specific cause, it is rumored that the city mixed into the fine work of Yuexi and poisoned the well, the lower officials feel that this matter is a little strange, so they are also ready to strengthen the control in Mozhou City, so as not to mix in the fine work and cause trouble to the Zhaoling rivers and mountains." β€œ

Wei Xun said this to show that he had a vision and did his best for the sake of Zhaoling, but Gu Hengzhou didn't care about this. Grasp the key and ask: "Which merchants did Lord Wei listen to?" Where are they now? Take me to see it. β€œ

Gu Hengzhou has always been resolute, and after speaking, he turned around and was about to go out, but Wei Xun hurriedly grabbed him.

Gu Hengzhou didn't like to be too close to people, his brows suddenly furrowed, his expression looked very unprovoked, Wei Xun seemed to be burned by fire, he immediately withdrew his hand, and said with insufficient confidence: "It??" In fact, it was not that Xia Guan heard about it himself, but the people below listened to it on the side of the street and came back to tell Xia Guan, those merchants are just passing through Mozhou, and generally will not stay in Mozhou for a long time, and I am afraid that there will be no way to take His Royal Highness the Prince to the city to find people at this time. β€œ

Gu Hengzhou looked at Wei Xun coldly and asked: "Lord Wei, as an official of the imperial court, is the parent official of hundreds of thousands of people in Mozhou, and he dares to spread this kind of hearsay and unverified words casually, if it causes panic in the city, do you know what kind of consequences it will cause!?" β€œ

Gu Hengzhou raised his voice slightly, his usual expression was already cold and intimidating, but now he became stern. It was even more difficult to resist, and a fine cold sweat broke out on Wei Xun's forehead, and he responded again and again, and the anger caused by Shen Bai was gone, and only his heart was empty.

Gu Hengzhou attached great importance to this matter, and did not intend to expose it, so he grabbed Wei Xun and asked: "Those merchants may have left Mozhou, but the subordinates who passed the word to Lord Wei will not also return to their hometowns, right?" β€œ

Wei Xun shook his head: "No, no, the lower officials will find someone to ask His Royal Highness the Prince for questioning!" β€œ

After Wei Xun finished speaking, he turned around and was about to run. Gu Hengzhou said coldly: "Just ask, as long as Lord Wei says what his name is and what position he is now, I will send someone to find it, why not Lord Wei go in person?" β€œ

Wei Xun's abacus that wanted to make an offering first was intercepted by Gu Hengzhou, he didn't dare to show it, and patted his head and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince of the World is thoughtful, this person has actually been seen by Lord Shen, and he is the master of the lower officials." He just left the state capital, and it is estimated that he will soon arrive at the mansion at this time, why don't His Highness go to the front hall with the subordinate officials first and wait? β€œ

Gu Hengzhou asked a Praetorian Guard to summon the master, and walked to the front hall with Wei Xun to wait.

Wei Xun asked his subordinates to bring hot tea, Gu Hengzhou sat quietly and didn't drink it, Wei Xun was a little uneasy in his heart, he first drank two sips of tea to suppress the shock, and as soon as he swallowed it, he heard Gu Hengzhou ask: "Lord Wei just said that this Ah Xuan Gongzi is unknown, so how did he appear in the state capital?" He has been by Lord Shen's side for so many days. Didn't Lord Wei check his origin? β€œ

This question is also a bit tricky, Wei Xun choked for a moment, put down the teacup and coughed for a while, and then said to Gu Hengzhou: "Here's the thing, the lower officials saw that Lord Shen was working hard to deal with the flood after he arrived in Mozhou, and he heard that Lord Shen had a habit that was different from ordinary people, so he wanted to find his own person to let Lord Shen relax, so he took the initiative to find a small man and send it to Lord Shen's room. β€œ

Men, living in this world is nothing more than greedy for power, wealth, and beauty, and subordinates offer beauties to their bosses everywhere, and they are tacit to everyone.

It's just that this kind of thing is somewhat indecent on the table, if Shen Bai didn't enjoy the people sent by Wei Xun, then only Wei Xun was the only one with dirty thoughts, but Shen Bai enjoyed it, and Wei Xun was justified when he said it.

Wei Xun deliberately smeared Shen Bai, coughed lightly and said: "Xia Guan knows that Lord Shen is from a scholarly family, so he deliberately asked for a weak and white young man, but he didn't expect that Lord Shen brought out this sturdy young man named Ah Xuan on the second day. Xia Guan felt strange, and sent someone to ask the old bustard, the old bustard said that he had misremembered and sent the wrong person, Lord Shen was very satisfied with Ah Xuan, Xia Guan had never been able to find a chance to explain the matter to Lord Shen, and when he heard about the matter today, he immediately thought of Lord Shen's safety. β€œ

Hehe, Lord Wei didn't think of the master until this time, he was always thinking about the safety of the master, and the master must personally thank you for the eighteenth generation of your ancestors when he has the opportunity!

Shen Bai scolded in his heart, his face was not obvious, Gu Hengzhou also pretended not to know the inside story, looked at Murong Xuan, Murong Xuan glared at Wei Xun and scolded angrily: "You fart, I have never seen any old bustards, as soon as I arrived in Mozhou, I was locked up in the firewood room in the backyard, it is clear that you and people joined forces to deliberately give me to the surname Shen!" β€œ

Wei Xun can be regarded as an old fritter, and he didn't panic when he was so identified by Murong Xuan, but slapped the table and said angrily: "Presumptuous, you dare to slander the officials of the imperial court, you don't want your head anymore!?" β€œ

Wei Xun is more imposing than Murong Xuan, Murong Xuan is the prince in the end, all he has heard since he was a child is to please him, how have I ever seen such a brazen and upside down person, he was so angry that he wanted to roll up his sleeves and fight with Wei Xun. The Praetorian Guards came in with their master.

Gu Hengzhou said in a deep voice: "Okay, I'll talk about this later." β€œ

Wei Xun was sure that Murong Xuan didn't dare to beat himself in front of Gu Hengzhou, so he obeyed and stopped talking, Gu Hengzhou glanced at Murong Xuan warningly, and Murong Xuan sat down reluctantly.

The master walked to the center of the front hall and knelt down, and saluted in disbelief: "My subordinates pay a visit to His Royal Highness the Prince, Lord Shen, and the master." β€œ

The master bowed his hand and secretly looked at Wei Xun, not understanding why His Royal Highness the Prince suddenly summoned him again, could it be that the matter of his small report on Lord Shen behind his back was known by His Royal Highness the Prince? Didn't the lord say that His Royal Highness the Prince was very disgusted with Lord Shen, why did he still fight for Lord Shen?

The master was worried in his heart, Wei Xun was speechless, and he didn't dare to make small moves in front of Gu Hengzhou, so he could only stare at the tips of his shoes in a daze, praying that the master's brain could turn faster and deal with the past.

Gu Hengzhou took in the interaction between the two and asked vaguely: "Does Master know what the main hall called you for?" β€œ

The master shook his head: "My subordinates are stupid, and I also ask His Royal Highness the Prince to make it clear." β€œ

"Stupid?" Gu Hengzhou repeated these two words meaninglessly, and then sneered, "When Master Wei passed the word to Lord Wei, he was not stupid at all. β€œ

Gu Hengzhou rarely spoke in such a pretentious manner, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he frightened the master a lot, and hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy: "I beg His Royal Highness the Prince to forgive me, what Young Master Shen did in the city today is easy to mislead the people, so that the people think that the master exaggerated the disaster situation and deliberately defrauded the disaster relief money." The subordinates came back to tell the lord that they were also worried that rumors were spreading in the city, which was not conducive to stable order. β€œ

Idiot! Who asked you about it!

Wei Xun scolded angrily in his heart, it was not good to show it directly, he pretended to accidentally brush the teacup, the cup fell to the ground, the tea leaves splashed everywhere, the master was shocked, and looked up to see Wei Xun's vicious gaze. A layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, but the matter had come to this point, it was useless for him to change his words, so he could only hold on to it.

Murong Xuan was on fire in his heart, and when he saw this, he deliberately asked Wei Xun: "Master didn't say anything bad about Lord Wei, why did Lord Wei drop the cup in such a hurry?" β€œ

Wei Xunpi replied with a smile: "The lower official was careless for a while, not deliberately, and asked His Royal Highness the Prince not to listen to this person's instigation." β€œ

Did Wei Xun exaggerate the disaster? Gu Hengzhou and Shen Bai knew better than anyone else, he didn't dwell on this topic, and went straight to the point: "This hall asks you, have you heard about Yuanfeng County from anyone recently?" β€œ

Master looked dazed, he didn't expect Gu Hengzhou to suddenly ask about something related to Yuanfeng County, he was just about to shake his head, suddenly remembered something, subconsciously wanted to see Wei Xun's face, Gu Hengzhou reminded coldly: "Master." It's the main hall asking you, what do you always see Lord Wei do? Isn't there a secret that can't be told? β€œ

The master immediately retracted his gaze, shook his head and said, "No, no, as long as His Royal Highness the Prince wants to know, his subordinates must know everything!" β€œ

Gu Hengzhou stiffened his face and stopped talking, waiting for the master to get down to business.

The master wiped the cold sweat on his head and said: "My subordinates have old cold legs, and when I went to the city to get medicine the day before yesterday, I heard Lang Zhong in the city say that the party ginseng in the city was bought by a medicinal herb merchant from Yuanfeng County. Yuanfeng County is now making a strange disease, only Codonopsis can continue to live, and the people there are scrambling to buy this medicine, and the price has increased several times. β€œ

Master's words are fundamentally different from what Wei Xun just said, the only thing that is the same is that they all know that Yuanfeng County is now making a strange disease.

Gu Hengzhou asked with a solemn face: "Which Lang Zhong said this?" Where is the herb dealer now? β€œ

The master said truthfully: "This was said by Li Langzhong of the Miao Medical Pavilion, and his subordinates only heard it at the time, and they didn't know who the medicinal herb merchant was, and the shopkeepers of these medicine shops in the city should have recorded it." β€œ

Gu Hengzhou immediately asked a team of Praetorian Guards and Master to go to the medicinal herb merchant together. When the others left, Gu Hengzhou looked at Wei Xun: "Lord Wei is far from what Master Wei said from Master, how can Lord Wei explain this matter?" β€œ

Wei Xun had a kind of chagrin that he picked up a stone and hit his own foot, his face was ugly, and he said dryly: "Please forgive His Royal Highness the prince, it is the lower official who lied, the lower official did not hear about this from the master, but from the mouth of the outer room." β€œ

The outer room is the little love that the man raises in the outside house, and he will not give people a name, at most he will settle down in the house, and give some change on weekdays, and after a few years, he will kick people away when he is disgusted.

Those powerful people and children of families in Beijing will more or less put some houses to support their outer rooms, which is not something that needs to be covered.

Wei Xun continued to explain: "Xiaguan's family is poor, and he has almost relied on the support of his wife's family to get to where he is today for so many years, so his first reaction was to lie and dare not let his wife know about it, so he dared to deceive His Highness." β€œ

Speaking of this, Wei Xun knelt down in front of Gu Hengzhou and said sincerely: "Your Majesty is guilty of deception, please punish Your Highness." β€œ

Gu Hengzhou didn't rush to punish Wei Xun, and asked coldly: "Since Lord Wei heard about this, why didn't you tell me as soon as possible?" β€œ

Wei Xun sighed and said: "Xiaguan's outer room has always been a mouthful of gossip, and Xiaguan doesn't know where she heard the news, she failed to verify the authenticity, and she didn't dare to report it rashly, so as not to cause a big oolong, but it will make the people in the city panic." β€œ

Wei Xun sighed and looked like he regretted not being at the beginning. Gu Hengzhou and Shen Bai looked solemn.

It is not known what the current situation of Yuanfeng County is, but there was such a rumor in Mozhou City first, who brought the rumor to Mozhou? If this kind of rumor is not curbed in time, even if Yuanfeng County is not chaotic, Mozhou is afraid that it will be chaotic for a while.

Gu Hengzhou and Shen Bai both pressed a boulder in their hearts, and it was so heavy that people couldn't breathe.

After being silent for a while, Gu Hengzhou asked Wei Xun to get up first, and ordered in a deep voice: "Judging from the words of Lord Wei and Master, the rumor of a strange disease prevalent in Yuanfeng County has spread in the city, no matter what the current situation in Yuanfeng County is, the intentions of the people who spread this matter will not be good, please Lord Wei immediately block the city gate, let the officials of the state capital assist the Praetorian Guards, search the whole city, and find out what the identity of this person is within three days!" β€œ

Gu Hengzhou said in the end, with Ling Ran's murderous aura all over his body, Wei Xun's eyes widened slightly, he didn't expect the situation to develop so seriously. He wanted to ask something, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only give up: "Your Highness will obey Your Highness's orders." β€œ

Wei Xun went down to let people seal the city, and then summoned the officials to be dispatched by Gu Hengzhou, Gu Hengzhou gathered himself and the Praetorian Guards brought by Shen Bai together, and after assigning the task, he and Wei Xun each took a team of people to personally search the whole city.

Tension spread silently through the city.

Shen Bai didn't get the task, and returned to the North Courtyard with Murong Xuan. The courtyard is quiet, Su Xiaoqiu is quietly sitting under the eaves and reading, two little maids are sitting next to embroidering silk handkerchiefs, and the three of them are a painting by themselves, so beautiful that people can't bear to disturb it.

Shen Bai unconsciously stopped at the door, and Murong Xuan also stopped, looked at Su Xiaoqiu twice, and then bumped Shen Bai's arm, and lowered his voice to warn: "Don't look at it." Such a good-looking girl wouldn't like someone like you. β€œ

Shen Bai didn't hesitate to give Murong Xuan a roll of his eyes.

Master is not worthy of being liked, do you think you are worthy?

was ruined by Murong Xuan's atmosphere, Shen Bai walked into the courtyard with a step, the two little maids with sharp eyes, immediately saw Shen Bai, hurriedly collected their things and stood up, and waved their hands softly and glutinously to greet: "Lord Shen, you are back!" β€œ

Shen Bai smiled, Su Xiaoqiu also closed the book and looked at Shen Bai, Shen Bai smiled more gently and amiably, Su Xiaoqiu remembered something, put down the book and ran to Shen Bai with her skirt, and under Shen Bai's puzzled gaze, she took out a sachet and handed it to Shen Bai.

The sachet is made of average material, but the embroidery is very good, embroidered with two fat little goldfish, spit out a small blister. It's so cute.

Su Xiaoqiu said a little embarrassed: "I have been idle for the past two days, I have learned to make incense sachets, which are filled with medicinal materials that calm the nerves and help sleep, if Lord Shen does not dislike it, take it with you." β€œ

Don't dislike it, don't dislike it, you're too considerate.

Shen Bai nodded again and again, and was about to hang the sachet on his waist unceremoniously, but was stopped by Murong Xuan and asked, "What are you doing when you have nothing to do with other people's sachets?" β€œ

Shen Bai covered his head and glared at Murong Xuan, the master was likable, so people were willing to give the master sachets, so what happened to the master who accepted it?

Shen Bai was straightforward, and Murong Xuan said meaningfully: "Yesterday in bed, who promised me to keep my distance from other men and women in the future, and I would definitely not mess with flowers?" β€œ

Shen Bai: "??"

Su Xiaoqiu: "??"

Shen Bai and Su Xiaoqiu were both inexplicable, Murong Xuan snatched the sachet from Shen Bai's hand, and returned it to Su Xiaoqiu and said: "Lord Shen likes sachets, I will learn to make them for him, Miss Xiaoqiu's sachet should be given to someone more deserving." β€œ

Murong Xuan was hinting that Shen Bai was not worth it, but Su Xiaoqiu thought that Murong Xuan was jealous, his earlobes were dyed crimson, and he explained a little helplessly: "This is a medicine bag, I don't mean anything else, and I ask Lord Shen and this little boy not to misunderstand." β€œ

There will be no misunderstanding or misunderstanding!

Shen Bai was about to get the sachet again, but Murong Xuan directly slapped the back of her hand, and said to Su Xiaoqiu with a smile: "Miss Xie Xiaoqiu is kind, you should keep this sachet for yourself." β€œ

The city surnamed Shen is deep, and he also likes men. Not worthy of this sachet at all.

Murong Xuan completed the words in his heart.

was rejected like this, Su Xiaoqiu couldn't persuade Shen Bai to keep this sachet anymore, so he could only sigh and say: "I originally wanted to leave something for Lord Shen before leaving, which can be regarded as repaying Lord Shen for his rescue, but I didn't expect to be able to send it out yet, so when I meet Young Master Shen again in Hanjing in the future, I will repay Lord Shen well." β€œ

Shen Bai was surprised, looked at Su Xiaoqiu suspiciously, and Murong Xuan helped her ask a question: "Miss Xiaoqiu is leaving Mozhou?" β€œ

Su Xiaoqiu smiled and nodded: "Well, a letter came from Beijing early this morning, saying that someone had been sent to pick me up, and I should be in Mozhou in the next two days." β€œ

Murong Xuan twisted his eyebrows, hesitated and reminded: "But just now Mozhou has been locked down, and a person is going to be searched, Miss Su is going to leave at this time, I don't know if His Royal Highness the Prince will agree." β€œ

This time it was Su Xiaoqiu's turn to be surprised, and she asked in surprise: "Who is His Royal Highness the Prince looking for, and it has reached the point of sealing the city?" β€œ

Although Murong Xuan has a tendon. But he also knew that this matter could not be said casually, so he shook his head and said: "I don't know who it is, but I just came back from outside and saw His Royal Highness the Prince of the World and Lord Wei personally leading troops to the city to find someone." β€œ

Su Xiaoqiu's eyebrows frowned slightly, a little embarrassed, Shen Bai realized that something was wrong, grabbed Su Xiaoqiu's hand and wrote in her palm and asked: Miss Xiaoqiu may tell me who my relatives in Beijing are, why are you in such a hurry to send someone to pick you up back to Beijing?

Su Xiaoqiu lifted his eyes and looked at Shen Bai's eyes, thought for a moment and said: "My relative in Beijing is Su Yuanhua, the head of the Chaotai Hospital, and he mentioned in his family letter that there seems to be a powerful person in the capital who is sick, and the people in the Tai Hospital are helpless, so he wants me to go back to Beijing quickly and try." β€œ

Shen Bai's eyelids jumped, which other powerful person in Beijing was so high that he wanted the entire Tai Hospital to take turns to diagnose and treat?
