Chapter Ninety-One: A New Year Different from Previous Years

On the streets, the solemn-looking Imperial Guards rushed to the west one after another, while the surrounding people dodged to avoid colliding with them, and were even more afraid of provoking them.

Today, it is the first day of the new year, but the atmosphere is very heavy, everyone is huddled at home, no one wants to join in the excitement in the streets and alleys, and they all don't go out if they can.

A guard in armor stood at the door of Zuo Shilang's mansion, hesitated for a moment and walked in, followed by several guards.

"Lord Zuo Shiro!"

At this time, Zuo Shilang was holding a wooden box in his hand, and as for what was inside, Luo Yulin didn't have to think about it to know.

Looking at Zuo Shilang's flustered appearance after seeing them, he knew very well what this person had done on weekdays, who he had contact with, and who he had slandered, all of which were clearly recorded in the file in his hand.

For several days, he had been ordered to investigate the matter, and with the authorization of the emperor, he investigated almost all the ministers in the palace, and asked people to write a dossier for those in question, although some ministers did not admit it, but he still would not let those people go.

Luo Yulin glanced at the guards behind him, and the guards immediately nodded knowingly, walked forward to take his wooden box, directly sealed his mouth, and took away all the people in the house.

Some bold people saw such a scene at the gate of Zuo Shilang's mansion, and they all guessed what was going on, and of course some of the minister's servants also hurried back to report when they saw this.

Luo Yulin did not stop, but visited several ministers in a row before he would stop.

"Put the names and portraits of these people on the notice board." Luo Yulin looked at the files that had been sorted out in front of him and handed them to the guards beside him.

The guards nodded again and again, and then left with the dossier, Luo Yulin raised his head to look at the sun in the sky, which was not dazzling, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to block his eyes.

The guards quickly posted the notice, and in an instant, a crowd of people crowded through.

There were only portraits, names, and positions on the file, and nothing else, which made everyone even more suspicious about what crime these people had committed and were arrested, and everyone was even more panicked.

The originally bustling capital suddenly became more and more heavy, and even those small stalls and vendors were a little afraid to go out, and the shops were basically not very open, and there was no New Year's atmosphere on the street.

"How did the capital become like this now?" Looking at the lifeless capital in front of him, Chu Hongze couldn't help sighing, he didn't expect that just an assassination incident could turn the capital into this appearance, this Luo Yulin relied on the emperor's will to catch it even more if he wanted to, he went to his father and said several times that he was indifferent.

General Li's mansion, the imperial doctor is taking General Li's pulse, although General Li does not seem to be in danger of life at present, but because of poisoning, he has not woken up.

The results of the imperial doctor's diagnosis were similar to Wen Ruyi's, not to mention that Mrs. Wen was also excellent in medical skills, so the imperial doctor only symbolically checked General Li's situation, and gave a few words before leaving, and then prepared to leave.

This time, the emperor specially asked the former father-in-law and the imperial doctor to come together, and brought a lot of rewards, Mrs. Li couldn't be happy at all when she looked at these things, she would rather her husband be good than these gold and silver jewelry, even if it was priceless, it was not as important as her husband.

What's more, she just had a child in her belly, and no one wanted this child to be born without a father.

Seeing Mrs. Li subconsciously put her hand on her stomach, Wen Ruyi naturally understood her thoughts, she smiled and took a small bag from Qing Ning's hand and handed it to her father-in-law, and said with a smile, "I am tired of my father-in-law for this trip, and I also ask my father-in-law to go back to the palace to convey Mrs. Li's thanks to my father." ”

It is often said that money can make ghosts grind, and the father-in-law smiled and accepted the heart handed over by Wen Ruyi, and his mouth was about to crack with laughter, so he politely said goodbye to Wen Ruyi and returned to the palace to resume his life.

Seeing Mrs. Li's sad appearance, everyone present was very sad, if General Li knew, I don't know how long it would hurt.

The love between the two of them is well-known in the capital, and even some people describe the good life after they get married with the example of the two of them, plus the two are also very good to the people on weekdays, especially Mrs. Li, who often gives free medical treatment to the people who can't afford to see a doctor, which makes the people even more grateful.

General Li treats everyone well on weekdays, and he also has a high prestige in the capital, many people and officials admire him, and many children are inspired to become generals like him. This time, the news of General Li's serious injury spread, and many people in the capital were also very sad, and some people spontaneously prayed for General Li's blessing.

Wen Ruyi walked to Mrs. Li's side with a bowl of porridge, she looked at Mrs. Li's tearful appearance, and couldn't help sighing, she understood Mrs. Li's current mood, but now the only way is to wait, so she can only comfort her, "Sister Shuyi, you better drink some porridge, you haven't eaten much in the past two days, how can your body stand it!" ”

Mrs. Li wiped her tears when she heard Wen Ruyi's words, she had almost washed her face with tears in the past few days, she was very aware of General Li's physical condition, but she still couldn't help but worry and be afraid.

"Ruyi, I'm fine, but I'm a little uncomfortable!" Mrs. Li didn't want Wen Ruyi and them to worry about her, Wen Ruyi had been running here almost every day these days, she was very grateful, "I really can't eat these things!" ”

Wen Ruyi knew Mrs. Li's mood, after all, since General Li's accident, she didn't have much appetite.

"Sister Shuyi, you have to eat a little if you don't have an appetite, even if you are not hungry, you have to think about the child in your belly!" Seeing that Mrs. Li couldn't move, Wen Ruyi had no choice but to take the child out and say it.

Mrs. Li looked at General Li, who was still lying on the bed unconscious, and touched her stomach again, then took the bowl from Wen Ruyi's hand, and barely ate some, although it was not much, but Wen Ruyi was also relieved, at least it was better than not eating.

At this time, Chu Hongze walked in from outside, and when he saw Mrs. Li's tired face, he couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, this kind of day is the hardest, not to mention that she is still a pregnant woman, how can she do this?

Wen Ruyi naturally understood Chu Hongze's thoughts, so he took Mrs. Li's hand and persuaded him, "Sister Shuyi, you see that your face is really haggard, if General Li knows that you are doing this for him, he will definitely be heartbroken." ”

After that, Wen Ruyi raised her hand to wipe the tears on Li Shuyi's face, straightened her hair, and continued, "Sister Shuyi knows her physical condition, you definitely don't want to fall down when General Li wakes up." ”

Mrs. Li looked at General Li's calm face, and her emotions finally collapsed a little, she grabbed Wen Ruyi's hand, and her emotions became a little excited, "Ruyi, you say...... You say the general he ...... Will he not be able to make it through? With that, she had already thrown herself into Wen Ruyi's arms and sobbed.

"No, no, definitely not." Wen Ruyi hurriedly hugged Mrs. Li tightly and comforted her carefully, "Sister Shuyi, don't think about it anymore, General Li is a great general who stands up to the sky, how can he be knocked down by a little ordeal?" And how could he be willing to abandon you and your children? He'll wake up safe and sound. ”

"Okay, I'll listen to you, I'll sleep with him here, and when he wakes up, he will definitely see me at first sight!" As she spoke, Mrs. Li leaned against General Li and lay down.

Wen Ruyi also felt that her eyes were a little sour when she saw this scene, she resisted the urge to cry and covered Mrs. Li with the quilt, and then lightly took everyone else in the room out.

……

Because of the emperor's assassination, as well as the impact of Luo Yulin's order to thoroughly investigate the case, the court and the central government can be regarded as unpeaceful, and this time the emperor is furious, and it can be seen from the few people who Luo Yulin rectified that the emperor is going to investigate the matter thoroughly this time, so those who are not very peaceful on weekdays have to be temporarily pressed down.

Chu Hongze was suspicious of the emperor because of this matter, plus during the New Year, so he simply stayed in the house to recuperate during this period of time, and by the way, he could talk to Wen Ruyi with peace of mind, he was too busy some time ago, and he didn't have time to accompany her, otherwise someone would definitely find him trouble.

King Rui's mansion was peaceful, and Hua Yan also went to the palace to accompany the queen mother to chant and pray for blessings, and the mansion was even more quiet and comfortable.

Wen Ruyi had nothing to do, except for going to the General's Mansion to see Mrs. Li and General Li, and Mrs. Li gradually thought about it and recovered her state, so she was not particularly worried, so she simply rummaged through a few medical books from Mrs. Li.

She only found that the wisdom of the ancients was really infinite, and the use of many herbs in it has been lost in modern times, and it can only be seen here, which can be regarded as a treasure, which is a great benefit for her.

Merely...... The only thing that makes Wen Ruyi feel a little uncomfortable is that she is very dizzy when she reads too many traditional characters, and these books are not printed out like modern times, they are all handwritten, and they are densely arranged, and there are some words that she doesn't know at all, which looks a little difficult.

Although it was said that this book was very useful to her, Wen Ruyi didn't read it for a while before throwing it aside directly, and then began to rub her temples.

And the book that flew out landed right in front of a pair of black boots.

Chu Hongze, who had just come in, picked up the book, then looked at it a few times, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows to look at her, and there was a hint of ridicule in his tone: "What? Can't read the book again? Didn't you get it from Mrs. Li with great difficulty? ”
