There are many official files kept by the Ministry of Officials over the years, such as life, political achievements, entry and exit, promotion or dismissal, and the corners can be turned up.

Ren An is looking for some secrets that have long been unknown.

"So coincidentally?" Lu Yixuan thought for a moment, "Do you think that Lord Ren is secretly tracking down the clues of the five paths?" In front of Feng Mingxie and hundreds of officials, Ren An bluntly said that the words of the woman were false and untrustworthy, but in private, he became the most suspicious person.

"Maybe it has something to do with Wei Guogong's case back then." Gu Qingxun put down the medicine mill, took out the folded paper from his arms and stuffed it into Lu Yixuan's palm, "If you have the opportunity, you should pay a little attention." ”

Lu Yixin didn't need to look at it to know that the name on it must be the clue that Ren An and Zhou Jiming also wanted to find, although Gu Qingxun didn't make a noise on weekdays, she helped herself quietly pay attention to everything about Lu Henian's case, which made her inevitably feel excited in her heart.

She nodded without thanking or signaling, for Gu Qingxun, the more you are grateful, the more he will have to put on a straight face and blame you, a gentleman's friend, you should have a good heart.

During this period of time, because of the sudden spread of the epidemic, many people who seemed to have no symptoms couldn't wait to escape from Shengjing City.

This is a predictable scenario, and people will do stupid things when they are afraid.

Not only are the people panicking, but the doctors and the patrol battalion are also in danger, they are not only afraid that they will be infected, but they are also afraid that they will not be able to stop the spread of the epidemic.

After a month, there are no longer people laughing and playing in the originally lively and prosperous Shengjing City, and the streets and alleys are as cold as people going to empty buildings.

Every day, Lord Jiang Weihang sent the servants to carry the decocted potion to sprinkle all over the corners, and to tell them from door to door, if there were no sick patients in the family, they would grind them with quinoa, tiger head, realgar, podophyllum, Tianxiong, honey locust, turnip, etc., and the honey pill was as big as a soap, and only a little burning one pill on the bed* would help prevent the problem from happening.

There are no people in the whole Shengjing City, but the smell is bitter, and the corners and alleys are full of medicinal residues.

Gradually, the cry alarmed the four alleys.

Some people are sick, some people are dead, and even the family members cannot collect the bodies for them, and those bones can infect others if they are not treated carelessly.

Wow wow crying children were pulled away by the officers and soldiers, big tears fell on the ground like the glow of the stars exploding in the night, the life and death of the wife and the husband were separated, and the helpless mourning of the white-haired people to the black-haired people was staged every day.

Lu Yixin was exhausted.

The Terracotta Division is under great pressure, the hospital is under great pressure, and everyone who supports here is under great pressure, Qin Zheng does not often come to the city gate to inspect, he is a protégé of the Son of Heaven and has to deal with the affairs of the family and the country with Zaifu and the six departments, and the royal relatives and nobles will not come out to deal with those life and death, they can't see the heartache, they can't see the heaven and the earth, and they can't see the joys and sorrows outside the imperial city.

Occasionally, Lu Wanyu would secretly come to the camp at the gate of the city to visit Lu Yiyu, and Lu Yiyu couldn't wait to drive her away quickly: "What kind of place is this, the third sister can take care of her mother in the Guogong Mansion." Lu Yixuan rarely returned home during this time, firstly, he was busy with deployment in the camp, and secondly, he was on the verge of possible infection every day, so naturally he could not have frequent contact with Lu Wanyu and others.

Lu Wanyu took a few days to see her little sister, and nagged Lu Zhongsi to stay at home to take care of her old mother during this time, but Hua Nu is still in the Gu family's medicine house, and her situation is unknown, she can neither visit nor dare to ask about the terrible illness in Shengjing City, so she hesitates and stomps her feet back and forth.

"Ah Yu, you are so busy, your body can't stand it," she asked, and she felt that Lu Yixin seemed to have lost two points of weight, obviously she was only a person who had just recovered from a serious illness, what should you do to rush to the forefront and be a thankless, there are so many powerful and capable people in this Shengjing City, why don't they take the lead, "Can you go back with me?" ”

Lu Wanyu has no ambitions and aspirations, she only hopes that her relatives can survive the catastrophe safely.

Lu Yixuan knew that she had scruples, and gently shook the fingertips that were stirred together: "How can I also be an official of the imperial court, how can I hide in my own home to avoid trouble, think about Lord Jiang, think about Mr. Gu, and all the officers and soldiers who have not flinched back here." She patted the back of Lu Wanyu's hand, now that the epidemic is at the head, the people of Shengjing City have not yet fallen, they have the money to contribute and make a strong contribution, and the businessmen have also tried every means to raise grain, grass and medicinal materials in other provinces through the circulation of Yinfang - Shengjing City should be proud of such people, it is difficult to be a good person, just want to be worthy of their hearts.

Lu Wanyu's willow eyebrows frowned slightly, and some of the sorrow of warm mountains and soft water lingered, she knew that she couldn't persuade Lu Yiyu, so she had to tell her to be careful in everything, and looked back frequently before leaving: "I'm still waiting for you to go home." ”

Lu Yixuan pursed his lips and nodded heavily.

Lu Wanyu sighed lightly and lifted the curtain and happened to bump into Jiang Weihang who was about to come in, although she didn't recognize Master Jiang, but looking at the official uniform embroidered with crane feather gold silk, she also knew that she was an important member of the imperial court, and now she is still willing to work tirelessly and be busy on the front line without fear of the epidemic, all of whom are models and heroes in this Shengjing City.

Miss Lu San's eyebrows were gentle, and she hurriedly leaned over and said softly: "You have worked hard." ”

Jiang Weihang was stunned for a moment, the woman's voice was soft and soft like a well-behaved rabbit, which made people can't help but look at it twice, and when he saw it, there was a slight unknown beating in his heart, and his heart trembled slightly: "Who is she?" ”

"My third sister." Lu Yixuan didn't raise his head.

"Lu Wanyu?" No wonder, I have long heard that Miss Lu San is famous and knowledgeable, Rao is frown and bow his head and feel that there are all kinds of charms, Jiang Weihang was stunned, and he couldn't help but turn around and realize that the delicate figure outside the tent had long been lost, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.

"Is there something wrong with Lord Jiang?" Lu Yixuan hadn't seen the clue yet, but he asked thoughtfully.

Jiang Weihang coughed lightly and came back to his senses, he was caught by the emperor Lao'er to inquire about the situation in the city, and the trembling in the imperial study can still be experienced to this day, and he hurried to the city gate as soon as he left the palace.

"There is a strange thing in this official," Jiang Weihang stretched out his hand and rubbed the side of the sour nose, showing that he was tired, but he could not have the leisure to rest peacefully, "There are several adults in the court this morning who advised the Son of Heaven to take the harem and royal ladies out of the city to avoid it, and then return to the royal capital when the epidemic in Shengjing City has passed." ”

Lu Yixin was stunned, his eyebrows narrowed, and his face changed: "Ridiculous!" She blurted out angrily.

"The official also thinks it's funny." Master Jiang said indifferently, but there was a little more mockery at this time, what is this called? If you have something, you will run away, and when you have nothing to do, you will come back to be a blessing - bullshit, if Your Majesty can even lose the royal city, then how can you trust the people of the world.

"This is a natural disaster**, neither war nor survival, if the Son of Heaven is greedy for life and afraid of death, he abandons the city with his family and flees, leaving a group of homeless people with corpses all over the field, is that still a Ming Jun's doing?" Lu Yixuan sneered, "It's stupid." "Those who make such flattering and flattering suggestions should be dragged out of the noon gate and beheaded to show public peace of mind.

Master Jiang wiped the little stubble and laughed, but he was also helpless and sneered in bitterness.

"Don't mention the pig's brain, Ren Zaifu was the first to oppose it at the time, and the old man was indignant and had already scolded people for being bloody." What do you say you don't want to be ashamed, don't you even want the face of the royal family, the Son of Heaven gave up the royal capital and abandoned the people, my Dayan Dynasty has not had such humiliation of the royal family since the founding of the country, how do you want the people of the world to view their own king? !

"Aside from virtue, Lord Ren is at least an official who is diligent and loves the people." Lu Yixin seeks truth from facts, and has one thing to say.

"What's the matter, Miss Lu still questions Lord Ren's moral integrity?" Jiang Weihang is not a person who likes to chew the root of his tongue, he simply grabbed a handful of herbs and kneaded them into pills, this Lord Jiang is quite close to the people when he does not show official authority or coldly agrees.

"If you are upright and have a clean breeze on your sleeves, why not be afraid of gossip from others, in this world, although the pure person is self-clear, it is too famous, but people are always not afraid of shadows."

"The words are good, but they are not the way of being a person, nor is it the way of being a minister." Jiang Weihang and Lu Yixing seem to have developed a strange friendship because of this epidemic, he admires this Lu family girl, not only because she is bold and decisive, but also because she is commendable and exquisite, but this enthusiasm and backbone sometimes hinder the road to prosperity, Jiang Weihang's disdain does not mean that he does not admire.

After all, the way of being an official varies from person to person - some people seek power, some people seek wealth, and some people seek the peace of the people and the people.

Lord Jiang himself admits that he is not a Qing official, and a good official also has to say at both ends, in charge of the entire Shengjing City, the slightest mistake is to break the bones, sometimes you have to listen to anyone's words, yes, listen to it without temperament, you have to collect any silver, dirty or not, you have a scale in your heart.

Innocent, these four words are simple to say, but - how can there be a saint in this world?

"What Master Jiang said is," Lu Yixuan smiled and reciprocated, it is rare to have a close relationship with this person, but now the person who "shares weal and woe" has a sense of sympathy, "Even if it is the Ninth Five-Year Honor, there is the art of the emperor and the way of the Son of Heaven, the depth of the line varies from person to person, in the final analysis, this loyal minister may not be able to have a good reward, and the traitorous minister may not be able to be in charge." ”

Lu Yixuan was a little stupid, above the previous dynasties, what was the real discernment of loyalty and treachery.

Jiang Weihang heard the words, the movements in his hands stopped, and his eyes lingered on Lu Yixuan's seemingly casual face: "Miss Lu, it is difficult for anyone to look at the unfortunate things in the family, I, Jiang Weihang, don't say anything cool and don't have any compliments, the Duke of Wei has made great contributions to the Great Yan Dynasty for four generations, and your father has also inherited the sin of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country and sacrificing 80,000 people with blood. ”
