It's just that just a few of them don't dare to compete with the imperial court.

It is not known whether someone behind them was behind them to do so, whether it was for her or the royal family.

"Let's stay with these people and interrogate them properly." Lu Xuan reined in his thoughts and pointed to the few people who were in the group with the man just now.

Wei Changfeng nodded, he didn't dare to do anything to these people before because he was afraid of disturbing the people's hearts even more and making the already chaotic Jiangnan even more chaotic, but now he doesn't have to be polite to these people.

Lu Xuan turned his head and looked at the people around him, his face did not improve.

"I hope you understand a little bit," she glanced around, "opening a warehouse for you to release grain is the court's mercy on you, the emperor's mercy, not an excuse for you to make a living, today's porridge has been overturned, then you will not have anything to eat today, come again tomorrow." ”

There was a cry of mourning below.

There was even a woman who knelt down in front of Lu Xuan with a baby in her arms, "My lord, please give me something to eat, the child hasn't eaten for two days, and if it goes on like this, I'm afraid I'm going to starve to death!" ”

Lu Xuan frowned, looked at Wei Changfeng, and signaled to him with his eyes what was going on.

It stands to reason that Wei Changfeng has been here for a few days, and the food he brings every day is enough, why haven't anyone received food.

And it seems that there are not a few people in this situation.

The woman wiped her nose and said in a mournful voice, "My lord doesn't know, the people who come here all day to receive porridge are a group of strong men, although I am anxious, but I can't compete with them, I was squeezed far behind when I received the food, and by the time I arrived, there was already no food." ”

Lu Xuan was stunned when he heard this, no wonder the people were so angry.

It is estimated that the group of strong men in her mouth and the few people in Fang Cai are in a group, a group of people are responsible for making trouble, and a group of people are responsible for grabbing food, which is deliberately trying to make trouble and cannot end it.

Lu Xuan frowned and looked back at the crowd of people, and sure enough, there were some strong men who tried to hide in the pile, but they were eye-catching because of their extraordinarily strong figures.

"Order someone to prepare some hot porridge again," Lu Xuan sighed lightly, instructed the guards on the side, glanced at the women, and added, "Bring some more cakes." ”

The woman instantly looked at Lu Xuan with excitement on her face, "Thank you for your mercy!" ”

Lu Xuan bowed slightly, and ordered the government to temporarily detain those sturdy men, and after she personally interrogated them one by one, she decided whether to let them go or not.

It's just that in this way, the delay is inevitably a little long.

Lu Xuan didn't sleep for three days before he solved the problem.

The people behind who want to sabotage are probably afraid of Lu Xuan's keenness, and they haven't sent anyone to make trouble these days, so the order in the Jiangnan area can be regarded as good.

Lu Xuan rushed back to his residence, picked up the files of these days and prepared to check them, not daring to slack off.

At present, the epidemic situation is severe, and it is more dangerous to delay one more day, and this matter needs to be resolved as soon as possible.

As soon as she looked at the beginning, Wei Changfeng hurried over.

"Lord Lu eats some food first, and then rests for a while." Wei Changfeng said, snatched the file from Lu Xuan's hand, and ordered someone to serve the meal, "You have been sleepless for three days, how can you continue to collapse like this?" ”

Lu Xuan shook his head and chuckled, "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm not my daughter's family, I'm not so squeamish." ”

As he spoke, Lu Xuan yawned again.

Seeing her bloodshot eyes, Wei Changfeng's attitude became more resolute, "No, you must take a rest today, I have already investigated the epidemic matter, you can rest assured." ”

As soon as he heard this, Lu Xuan instantly came to his senses, and asked with bright eyes, "What did you trace?" ”

Seeing Lu Xuan's persistent appearance, I'm afraid he won't be willing to rest obediently if he doesn't explain Lu Xuan today, Wei Changfeng sighed lightly.

"Since you asked about the source of the epidemic that day, I sent someone to track it down and found that the epidemic came from a butcher's shop." Wei Changfeng said.

"Butcher?" Lu Xuan frowned, "What about the owner of the butcher's shop?" What else could be asked from him? ”

Wei Changfeng shook his head, he also had a headache when he mentioned this matter.

"Strange to say, since the outbreak came, all the people in that butcher shop have died." Wei Changfeng said, his fingers unconsciously tapping on the table, "I heard that I died by eating rat poison by mistake." ”

Lu Xuan fell into contemplation, the butcher shop smells fishy, and often attracts some rats to come and steal meat, so it is common to always have rat poison at home.

But how could that family eat it by mistake? This matter seems reasonable, but in fact, it is full of flaws when it is investigated, so that she has to doubt.

"No, I'm going to the butcher's shop." Lu Xuan slapped the table and stood up, and was about to rush out.

Wei Changfeng had already guessed that he would be like this, and dragged him back to sit back in his position.

"Don't worry, I've sent someone to seal off that butcher's shop, there are officers and soldiers guarding it outside, there won't be any problems, you better eat and rest before going out." Wei Changfeng said and handed the chopsticks to Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan just wanted to refuse, but when he saw Wei Changfeng's face full of words that if she didn't do it today, she would not want to go out of this door, so she had to sigh and give up the matter.

It was indeed hungry, Lu Xuan ate it for the first time, regardless of his image, and ate two bowls of rice before he patted his bulging belly with satisfaction.

Wei Changfeng squinted at her, changed his attitude on the road when he came, and chuckled, "Lord Lu, now I know why His Royal Highness the Fierce King appreciates you so much." ”

Lu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at him a little strangely, "Why did you suddenly mention this stubble?" ”

Wei Changfeng shook his head lightly and avoided the topic, "Lord Lu, let's rest, don't try to sneak out, I will send someone to watch you here until you fall asleep." ”

Lu Xuan was amused by him and shook his head slightly.

It's also that she's too anxious, and now that she thinks about it, there's nothing wrong with taking a break and then going.

Otherwise, he dragged his tired body to the butcher shop, and I am afraid that his mind will not be clear when he investigates the case.

Thinking like this, Lu Xuan lay on the bed, and slowly closed his eyes.

Lu Xuan slept for most of the day, and when he woke up, it was already dark.

As soon as he made a little noise, the rice cake came in, "Your Excellency is awake?" Let's have some food. ”

Lu Xuan softened his sore neck and looked at the sky, "What time is it?" ”

While the rice cake was serving her food, she replied, "It's time for Shen." ”

When Lu Xuan heard this, he instantly became excited, got up and put on his official uniform and was about to rush out.

The matter of the butcher shop has not been resolved, and this matter must not be sloppy, so it is better to go and see it first to feel at ease.

The rice cake had just been prepared for the meal, and when I looked back and saw this scene, I was stunned.

"My lord, what are you? That meal ......."

"Come back and eat again." Lu Xuan's voice was heard in the distance.

When I arrived at the butcher shop, as Wei Changfeng said, someone had been sent to guard the place a few meters away from the butcher shop, and no idlers could approach it.

Those officers and soldiers recognized Lu Xuan, and Lu Xuan just said hello and went in.

The furnishings in the butcher shop have not changed, and it is estimated that Wei Changfeng specially ordered not to destroy the scene.

The room was a little dim, Lu Xuan lit a fire and walked inside, a perennial mildew breath came, as soon as she stepped in, there were some sounds in the house.

This room has already been inspected by the people of the government, and there will be no hidden people, and it should be a mouse that can make this noise.

Since he was a child, Lu Xuan has been most afraid of these furry things, and now when he thinks of this, his face is even paler, but when he thinks that it is related to the safety of the people, he still gritted his teeth and went inside.

The box containing rat poison was placed on the table, Lu Xuan walked over to pick it up, and then leaned under his nose to smell it, and his brows frowned instantly.

It's definitely not easy.

Rat poison is greenish-brown with a pungent smell, and it is understandable to mistake rat poison for salt in food, but the difference between rat poison and salt is so obvious that it is impossible.

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden crackling sound in the room.

Lu Xuan didn't pay much attention to it at first, and still wanted to continue walking inside, until he asked about the choking smell of smoke and the faint shouting sound outside.

Lu Xuan was only then excited, vigilant, and looked back.

There were already sporadic fires in the house, and I don't know who lit them.

There was wood everywhere in this room, and Lu Xuan only hesitated for a moment, and the fire had already spread to the entire house.

She choked on the smoke and coughed violently, accidentally rubbing the corner of her skirt against a spark and blazing.

Lu Xuan exclaimed, fortunately, there was a water tank next to her, she quickly rushed over, extinguished the fire on her body, tore off a piece of clothing and soaked it, covered her mouth and nose and wanted to rush out.

At present, the fire has blocked the door, and if you want to rush out, you will inevitably suffer serious burns, but if you don't go out, there is only a dead end to wait.

She was just about to lift her foot, but a piece of wood from the beam smashed down and hit her head.

Lu Xuan was sullen in pain, snorted, his eyes were glazed, he was a little unsteady, and he was about to fall to the ground when he staggered.

The surrounding fire was getting bigger and bigger, and seeing that it was about to burn to him, Lu Xuan showed a desperate smile on his face.

Really...... Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes.

She thought that she would be able to avenge the Lu family and protect her family in this life, but she didn't expect that she would have to confess here just after being reborn.

It's sad, it's hateful, and it's a man.

In an instant, many pictures flashed in Lu Xuan's mind, the past life, this life, and all kinds of the past turned into a lament in this firelight.

In a trance, a figure rushed in, picked her up without saying a word, and was about to rush out.

Lu Xuan's eyelids were heavy and he couldn't lift them, but he smelled a familiar scent of white sandalwood in a hazy way.

The smell made her heart skip a half-beat, could it be......

Before she could open her mouth to call out the name, her body could no longer support it, and she tilted her head and fell asleep.
