Xiao Wenxuan heard that someone was coming from the capital, so he hurriedly greeted Zuo Shuochen out.

Seeing the man's face, Xiao Wenxuan smiled: "Why are you?" ”

Wei Huai'an was brought in by a soft chair. When he entered the house, he didn't get off the ground, and replied to him lazily: "What? Disappointed? ”

Zuo Shuochen greeted him and stood aside. It is incomprehensible that this famous sick seedling in the capital came to Bingzhou at this time.

Xiao Wenxuan was a little disappointed, thinking that the emperor had sent someone to send sulfur. However, he didn't show it on his face, knowing that Wei Huai'an had a hard time all the way, so he asked people to be carried directly to his room and put them on the soft couch. He asked someone to wring a hot cloth and wipe his face, and poured hot tea and put it in his hand.

"Why did you come here at this time, and you weren't afraid of getting sick?" Xiao Wenxuan's tone is like that of a brother who cares for his brother.

"If I don't come, I'm afraid you'll regret it." Wei Huai'an picked up the tea and drank it all, and stretched out his hand in front of Xiao Wenxuan: "Another cup." ”

"What's going on?" Xiao Wenxuan heard that there was something in his words, and asked while pouring him tea.

Wei Huai'an took a few sips of the tea in his hand, and when his burning throat was more relaxed, he slowly talked about the assassination of Su Muling on the road.

“…… I put them in the inn in Meilin County, and there was no shadow around me, and I left two people to protect them. In a few days, they should have arrived. ”

"Isn't this nonsense, at this time, why does this situation have to come here? It's met with you, or ...... Monkey business. ”

When Xiao Wenxuan heard that Su Muling almost lost his life, he was distressed and angry in his heart.

"Okay, you have to train people and train them again. I'm not here to have fun this time, I'm going to bring you what you want most...... Brimstone. ”

Hearing that it was sulfur, Xiao Wenxuan was surprised and delighted, stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder in disbelief: "Really? How much? Where did you get it? ”

Wei Huai'an made him scratch and slapped his hand.

"What are you excited about? Didn't you ask the emperor for sulfur? The emperor couldn't get it, but I did, so I sent it. ”

Xiao Wenxuan couldn't figure out how the emperor could agree to Wei Huai'an sending sulfur all the way over. He couldn't figure out if the eldest princess and the mighty princess could let him go, there must be something hidden in it, but now was not the time to ask.

He asked Wei Huai'an to rest in his room first, and he took Zuo Shuochen to see the goods. Looking at dozens of truckloads full of sulfur, Xiao Wenxuan was so happy that the corners of his mouth twitched.

That night, the goods were distributed proportionately. Early the next morning, the states and counties began to distribute the reconstituted medicines.

For three days, the epidemic took a turn for the better. The number of deaths is decreasing every day, and many patients are significantly improving.

"Where did you get the sulfur?"

Xiao Wenxuan finally had a smile on his face for more than a month.

"Have you forgotten what Ning Jingyan used to do?"

Wei Huai'an squinted at him dissatisfied, as if he had forgotten something important.

Xiao Wenxuan patted his head and hated himself: "How did you forget this stubble." ”

Ning Jingyan is a distant relative of Wei Wuhou, and he originally ran a small business in Meilin County. One year, I heard out of nowhere that the price of sulfur was going to rise, so I used all my funds to collect dozens of truckloads of sulfur.

As a result, the sulfur did not rise but fell that year, and the dozens of cars collected were all smashed in their hands.

When his wife heard that he had smashed all the silver into these dozens of carts of sulfur, she cried and made trouble to reconcile with him. was so angry that Ning Jingyan threw a letter of resignation to her, stopped doing business, and went to Weiwu to become a soldier.

Wei Wu Hou thought that he was a good man, and when he heard what happened to him, he bought these dozens of truckloads of sulfur at a high price and put them in the old mansion in Meilin County.

Ning Jingyan got the silver and didn't leave, and then he has been following Weiwu Hou to make many military exploits, and now he is a martial general from the fourth grade.

"You, now you are thinking about Miss Su in your heart, where do you remember this?" Wei Huai'an sarcastically mocked him.

Xiao Wenxuan was used to his tone that was neither yin nor yang, and he was not annoyed, but he was thinking about where Su Muling had gone. Seeing that Xiao Wenxuan was silent, Wei Huaian knew that he was worried about Su Muling, and his tone was more serious.

"What are you going to do in the future? With her identity, the emperor will not agree, and if you can't figure it out, you will find a way to get her away from you. ”

"That's why I didn't dare to confess to him all because of this, so wait. When I got the matter done, I took her away from the capital to a place where no one could find us. Xiao Wenxuan clenched his hands into fists, his eyes firm.

"By then, take me with you."

"Poof!"

was originally a very serious topic, so Wei Huai'an's sentence made both of them laugh.

***

At this time, Su Muling, who stayed in Meilin County, was lying in bed recuperating from his injuries, after nearly a week of recuperation. Su Muling's wound had begun to scab over.

Although Pomegranate has a lot of injuries on her body, she knows how to avoid vital points, and her physical condition is much stronger than Su Muling's, so she can run and jump again in a few days.

Su Muling saw that the pomegranate was almost ready, and took everyone to Bingzhou.

They hurried during the day and rested at night, because they were afraid that Su Muling and Pomegranate would not be able to bear it, so the speed of the journey was not fast.

On the seventh day, I arrived at the Jijiazhuang Post Station, which was forty miles away from Bingzhou.

At the thought of seeing Xiao Wenxuan, Su Muling was a little excited, and returned to the room without eating a few bites of dinner.

Sleep can pass the time, she washes up early and goes to bed.

"Boom!" A crisp knock on the door.

"Who?" Su Muling asked.

"Miss, it's me." It's pomegranate.

"Wait a minute." Su Muling got out of bed and went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, a person pushed the door and broke in, stretched out his hand and hugged Su Muling tightly into his arms, silent for a long time.

Su Muling pushed him away a little, caressing his obviously emaciated face, tears shining in his eyes.

"How did you lose so much weight? Sick? ”

Xiao Wenxuan shook his head and secretly turned his head sideways to wipe away a tear that came out.

"Does the wound still hurt?"

Xiao Wenxuan saw that although her face was still a little pale, she was in good spirits, and half of her heart was put down.

"It doesn't hurt, it's just a little itchy, Wei Shizi's medicine is very useful."

Su Muling pulled him to sit down on the bed, poured him a glass of water and brought it to his hand.

Xiao Wenxuan took it and didn't drink it, put it aside, stared at her big eyes and hesitated for a few moments before finally speaking.

"Let me see."

Su Muling's slightly pale face was flushed.

"It's all right."

"Show me, I'll be relieved." Xiao Wenxuan insisted.

Hearing Wei Huai'an say that she fought two people by one and almost killed one, he felt even more sorry for this woman in his heart, and he could imagine how tragic the scene was at that time. If he had been there, he would have killed them.

Su Muling knew that he was worried about himself, anyway, he would be his person sooner or later, and it didn't hurt to take a look, Su Muling twisted his head and untied the strap of his underwear.

Xiao Wenxuan stretched out two fingers and slowly slid down her neck, and the fingertips lifted the thin undershirt, revealing a hideous wound on her shoulder.

Xiao Wenxuan's hand paused, and one hand clenched into a fist by his side.

"Did the Song family do it?" There was gnashing hatred in his voice.

"That person confessed that it was Su Wanqing."

"Do you believe it?" Xiao Wenxuan didn't believe it.

"I'll go back and look into this matter. By the way, aren't you in Bingzhou? How did you get here? ”

Su Muling pulled on his clothes and reached out to smooth his frowning brow. He is now worried about the country and the people, and she shouldn't let him worry about her anymore.

"I heard that you were coming, so I inquired about your whereabouts in advance. I knew you were here tonight, so I came. ”

Xiao Wenxuan grabbed her two hands and played with them, and her voice was much softer.

Su Muling knew that this was the case, and her eyes were crooked with a smile.

"How's the situation in Bingzhou?"

"The past few days were not good, there was a shortage of medical treatment, in order to prevent the spread of the epidemic to other states, I ordered the lockdown to keep other states and counties safe. However, we lacked important medicinal materials to treat the plague, and thanks to Huai'an's timely delivery, the problem was solved. ”

"What's missing?" Su Muling asked casually.

"Sulfur, the whole Bingzhou can't find sulfur. Later, I sent someone to investigate, only to learn that someone bought it at a high price half a year ago, resulting in no sulfur to be found in Bingzhou. ”

Brimstone? Su Muling recalled that the Wang family in the previous life once said that there were a lot of loud noises in the capital when King Ping rebelled, could it be ...... Su Muling suddenly came to her senses, and she grabbed his arm excitedly, her nails embedded in his flesh.

"You'an, I've heard that sulfur is an indispensable material for making black powder. If someone buys a large amount of it, it will be made into black powder in private......" Su Muling stared at him tightly with a pair of big eyes.

Xiao Wenxuan's eyes changed, and finally turned into a kiss and landed on her forehead.

"I'll send someone to investigate, if that's the case, Ling'er, you're doing a great job."

Su Muling smiled, if she could really prevent Yu Ran from stopping him before King Ping's rebellion, she wouldn't have lived again.

That night, Xiao Wenxuan did not return to Bingzhou, but stayed in the post station.

At dawn, Xiao Wenxuan was afraid that Su Muling would be infected with the plague, so he persuaded her to stay in Jijiazhuang. Su Muling refused to insist on being by his side. Xiao Wenxuan had no choice but to take them back to Bingzhou.

After arranging Su Muling in a courtyard in the backyard of the government, Xiao Wenxuan returned to the yamen and began to arrange for the investigation of the people behind the purchase of sulfur.

Su Muling has been here for a few days, and Xiao Wenxuan has been busy from morning to night, and he can hardly see his shadow. Su Muling knew that he had a heavy burden and many things, so he tried not to disturb him.

This day is really boring, and I want to ask him for leave to go out for a walk. knew that Xiao Wenxuan was working in his own yard, so Su Muling went directly to his yard.

When he entered the courtyard gate, he saw Wei Huai'an sneakily eavesdropping on something at the door, and Su Muling didn't know when he walked in.

Until Su Muling called him: "Shizi? ”

Wei Huai'an shuddered and straightened up.

"You? Do? Wei Huai'an was taken aback.

"I wanted to ask you what you're doing."

"Me? I wonder what they're doing. Wei Huai'an is also straightforward and strong.

"Whoa!"

The door opened as he spoke, and Xiao Wenxuan looked at the two people at the door suspiciously.

"What are you doing?"

"He wants to know what you're doing?" Su Muling directly sold Wei Huai'an.

Wei Huai'an on the side was not angry, his hands were crossed in front of his chest, and his body was leaning against the door frame as if he couldn't hold it. Raising his eyebrows, he asked.

"yes, I wonder what you're doing?"

"Wei Shizi."

Zuo Shuochen, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, walked out of it and saluted Wei Huai'an, and Wei Huai'an returned the salute.

Then the prefect of Bingzhou came out of it and greeted Wei Huai'an.

When they looked at Su Muling again, the two looked at Xiao Wenxuan.

Xiao Wenxuan took a step back, let Su Muling out, and introduced aloud:

"This is Su Muling, the eldest lady of the Su family, who spontaneously assisted the Songjiang government in disaster relief during the snowstorm at the beginning of the year, distributed 200,000 catties of grain and tens of thousands of silver, and saved tens of thousands of victims."

Xiao Wenxuan's voice couldn't hide the pride.
