Chapter 171: Princess Bahu (22)

Wei Lingxi was not idle when she was waiting for sea ships in Qiongzhou, she organized a caravan to transport goods from the south to the capital.

At the same time, he sent a letter to the capital, asking the emperor to send some small officials who were proficient in agricultural affairs to Qiongzhou.

After receiving the letter, the empress was worried that Wei Lingxi would not have a good time in Qiongzhou, so she packed dozens of boxes of medicinal herbs, clothes, daily necessities, and three young and handsome imperial doctors and sent them to Qiongzhou with the little officials selected by the emperor.

Chen Xian's son, Chen Jia, heard about this team and asked to accompany him.

By the time this lengthy team arrived in Qiongzhou, it was already three months later.

Thanks to the blessing of the princess, the entire county government has been renovated, and the princess invited a local chef, and the three meals a day are all local flavors.

The taste is not bad.

The princess was rich, and built a free academy in the local area, and when she heard that Mr. Teach's salary was extremely high, Lord Chen was so hot that he almost made himself a beggar by relying on his money. The local big families don't take the government seriously, so the filial piety that other county orders can enjoy is not the same as him.

A county official is not as good as ordinary people, and Chen Xian feels that he has embarrassed the court.

So he unceremoniously served as the dean of the college.

The dean is the most paid.

It also makes sense for him to serve as the dean, Qiongzhou dialect is difficult to understand, and local students must speak the standard of Beijing dialect if they want to be admitted to the Jinshi. Otherwise, when you go to the palace and try to answer the emperor's questions, you can't understand one or two, and that's the end.

He has been in Qiongzhou for 20 years, and he is extremely fluent in the local dialect, and the Beijing dialect is also good.

With him as an example, I believe that the students will be able to work hard to integrate the two words.

Otherwise, if the princess wants to see the results of the academy, she will see a group of students shaking their heads and reading, and they can't understand a word, and that kind of picture will never look good.

The academy was opened, and the people and things sent by the capital also arrived, and Wei Lingxi was overjoyed to see the imperial doctor.

The local economy is underdeveloped, the people are poor, and living by the sea is very prone to rheumatism, and having a doctor can solve at least part of the problem.

The princess asked the imperial doctor to also go to the academy to be a gentleman, and in her spare time to compile some pamphlets and small home remedies for medical popularization. Of course, free clinics are also indispensable.

In the two years here, Wei Lingxi learned to weave, and he also learned a lot of local snacks. The biggest achievement is to follow the medical skills of Tai Medicine, and with the help of famous doctors sent from the capital, she can treat ordinary diseases.

The first batch of students studying in the academy have not yet graduated, but they have already learned books such as the Three Character Classics and Thousand Character Texts, and they have all known the basic characters.

The academy also taught arithmetic, and what he learned in two years was enough to get a job in any shop in the city.

Wei Lingxi likes life here and feels very fulfilled every day.

Just when she felt that she was empty, the capital sent her a letter about Xie Li.

Xie Li was beaten by the queen, and the Xie family grounded him and forbade him to go out.

Xie Li was timid, and at first he was trembling, forcing himself to be pure-hearted, but then he couldn't help it.

escaped from Xie Mansion incognito with the silver, and when he came back a year later, he contracted Hualiu disease.

Mrs. Xie hid the news and secretly scattered a lot of money to seek medical treatment.

It was discovered by the people sent by the queen to keep an eye on the Xie family.

So the whole capital knew the news.

Xie Li used to be welcomed by his daughter's family in the capital, but now he is spurned.

The Xie family has no face to see people, Prime Minister Xie Cheng said that he wanted to resign, but the emperor did not approve it, and Prime Minister Xie Cheng was not a taste, and he couldn't wait to cover his face when he went to court.

The queen also wrote about her investigation, and Xie Li met a prostitute who was about to jump into the river as soon as she left the capital.

The prostitute was dressed in plain clothes, revealing her plump body that was tightly wrapped in the wind, but her eyes were pitiful and full of despair.

Xie Li looked as if he had been hit in the heart by a bow and arrow.

Without thinking about it, he jumped into the river to save the prostitute.

The prostitute is said to have sold herself for her sick father, who relied on her constant money for three years to delay but was not cured. The prostitute is about to jump off the building when she is desperate.

Xie Li was moved by her kindness, steadfastness and filial piety, and immediately took out all the money on her body to ransom the prostitute, and sold the jade pendant to buy a small courtyard to house the prostitute.

There was a lot of money left over from selling jade pendants, and the two lived a carefree life.

Suddenly, one day, the prostitute had a high fever and did not go away, Xie Li was very worried and took the person to the hospital.

The doctor said that the prostitute had an attack of dirty disease and would not have a few months to live.

Xie Li lost his soul and walked to the place where the prostitute jumped into the river, and happened to see two strong men carrying a coffin and walking out of the city.

From time to time, there was a knocking sound in the coffin.

Xie Li was startled at first, and then when he saw that the two strong men carrying the coffin looked as usual, he understood.

The man in the coffin is not dead!

Xie Li had a kind attack at that time, and shouted to step forward to stop it.

The people in the brothel had poisonous eyes, and they could see at a glance that Xie Li's identity was extraordinary.

So when Xie Li stepped forward to stop him, they didn't drive away loudly.

Rather, it was a kind explanation: "This son, the person in the coffin has a dirty disease, and his whole body is rotten, and he won't live for a few days." This disease is still contagious, and now sending her away is to free her. ”

Xie Li couldn't imagine the appearance of a person with a dirty disease, but he couldn't watch a person suffocate in a coffin.

He pointed to the coffin and said, "As long as the person in the coffin has a breath, you can't bury her." ”

The two strong men didn't want to offend people, and they also saw that this person was a little naΓ―ve, so they smiled and said: "If you don't believe it, just follow our brothers to take a look, let's find a secluded place, we will open the coffin for you, you can see that if you can save it, take it away, if you can't save it, you can go home." ”

"I don't believe it, it's reasonable to ignore people's lives, let's go!" Xie Li had a serious face, and felt that he should be responsible for the unevenness of the road to the end, so he followed the two strong men to a secluded place.

The strong man looked at each other, opened the coffin funny, and stretched out his hand to invite: "Take a look, if our Yuehong girl knew that she still had someone to help her to such a point, she would definitely be very moved." Yuehong girl, open your eyes, someone has rescued you. ”

Xie Li was very dissatisfied with their attitude of treating the girl as an object, gave the two of them a displeased look, and walked to the coffin with his feet up.

The sun in the distance had reached the roof, and the reddish clouds were gilded with blood, and the coffin was also red, lining the deep blue sky in the distance, and the dim stars suddenly brought people to the ghost story.

Xie Li took a closer look and realized that the coffin was narrow and small, less than half the size of an ordinary coffin, and it was conceivable that only a dead person could endure that grievance.

At this time, the coffin was silent, and Xie Li's heart was full of a sense of responsibility that would save people's lives, and he was unaware of the strange atmosphere.

He ignored the two pillar-like strong men and looked into the coffin......

A humanoid thing in a white middle coat was lying in a coffin, with large holes in his hands and face, and yellow water flowing, and the whole person did not look like a person, no different from a rotting cow or horse bitten by flies lying in an abandoned ditch.

Xie Li was immediately frightened by the irritating smell and the terrifying scene, and took two or three steps back, and when he reacted, he leaned against the wall and vomited.

This is what it looks like for people who have dirty diseases.

Xie Li was greatly shocked and frightened.

It is said that he didn't even return to the courtyard later, so he left the prostitute and crawled back to Beijing overnight.
