Lu Mingci admitted that what Runye said was particularly reasonable.

Runye was given the status of "purple-robed Taoist" by the emperor because of his meritorious service in curing the plague.

Indeed, now Runye is going to the northwest to treat the victims, which is a good thing for Zhu Hongyu, for the emperor, and even for the entire Chinese Dynasty.

Then, Lu Mingci squinted at Runye and asked, "Yes, your method is the best way, but you are not afraid of death like this?" ”

Runye smiled, a little helplessly.

"I'm afraid of death, the immortal way is noble, and there is no measure of people. How can I save people when I die? I also feel that now that I am dead, I will not be able to get any good official position. But as the saying goes, a rush to the crown is a red face. I run the night, I am ashamed of Zhu Hongyu, and now it is just a remedy. I don't want to kill her, I'd rather die of illness than let me get her involved. ”

Lu Mingci stood where he was, silent.

He pulled Runye to sit down, and the two of them regained their smiles.

"Runye, Runye, why bother? Isn't life more important than vermilion? Isn't your future more important than Vermilion? Don't be stupid. ”

Runye sat on the chair with a smile and drank tea, and did not answer Lu Mingci's words, which made Lu Mingci very embarrassed.

The two of them were silent for a while.

During this period, Zhu Amber saw that the two of them stopped talking, so she brought the dishes prepared by the store.

In front, there are nine small snacks.

Plum blossoms, kidney beans in honey sauce, dried figs, spicy crispy bamboo shoots, sad cold powder, sauce mushrooms, dried soy tofu, osmanthus cake, fried peas, .

Sweet and salty, soft and hard.

It's just snacks, only about one bite each, placed on a carved shelf, and Lu Mingci and Runye have a small shelf.

The two of them can take whatever they want to eat, and they can't finish it anyway.

Runye chose fried peas, kidney beans in honey sauce, and dried tofu in sauce, while Lu Mingci chose crispy bamboo shoots, cold noodles and pulled cakes to eat.

Lu Mingci was bored with all the heartlessness, and Runye picked up two peas and a piece of dried tofu and ate them, and put down the chopsticks.

After a while, hot dishes came up, Luo Han cuisine, spinach cashew nuts, vegetarian squirrel fish, vegetarian Dongpo meat, vegetarian shredded chicken, plus imitation abalone with japonica rice, and finally a cup of bird's nest.

The amount of dishes is very small as Lu Mingci requested, and it tastes quite good.

Each dish is a vermilion cloth dish, and it is eaten by two people.

Lu Mingci flicked with chopsticks a few times, and all of them were eaten, and Runye picked up the chopsticks and ate at most of them, and most of them were left.

Finally, when the bird's nest came up, Runye drank it and thought it was delicious, and he didn't ask what it was, and he couldn't eat it anymore after eating a cup.

Lu Mingci looked at Runye who couldn't eat in a hurry, as if he understood something.

"People are iron and rice are steel, and only when you are full can you have the strength to find Zhu Hongyu."

Runye looked at the empty bird's nest in front of him and stroked his abdomen with his hand.

"No, I'm already full, I don't want to eat anymore."

Lu Mingci pursed his lips, feeling that Runye was really not worth life.

"Is it really that important for a woman? Tell me, what did this woman give you? Do you have to save her yourself? I'm also convinced of you......"

Runye knew that Lu Mingci would not understand, although he looked good now, but after all, he was a ruthless brocade guard.

This brocade guard will abandon anyone who is good to him for his own benefit, even if this person is affectionate to her and kind to him.

Runye knew that Lu Ming's resignation would be different from him after all.

"I've made up my mind, and I ask for your forgiveness."

Lu Mingci sighed, stood up and walked out the door, and Runye followed behind Lu Mingci, waiting to listen to Lu Mingci's arrangement.

Walking from the second floor to the first floor, Lu Mingci thought all the way.

He knew he had to make decisions as quickly as possible.

"Runye, today I told Liu Dengyun to let her review Zhang Yu's case and dispose of Zhang Yu separately after he was imprisoned. You know the former governor of Ganzhou, Chao Jianling, you should have seen him when you were treating the plague. ”

Runye nodded, of course he knew this person.

"Master Chao is very good, I also ate his invitation at that time."

Lu Mingci looked at Runye, showing a worried look, he was really afraid that a simple person like Runye, if he really went to Bianjing, there was a possibility that he would be played to death by those friends.

"In the officialdom of Bianjing, some people are good, and some people don't do anything for a day. But the quality of a person's character does not determine whether he is promoted or demoted. Those who can be promoted are the best among people. Not necessarily good people. After all, I hope Runye can understand that no matter how good Chao Jianling is to you, or that he is indeed a good person, but now that the emperor is unhappy with him and wants to depose him, he is a bad person. Don't get into trouble. ”

Runye nodded noncommittally.

After all, he and Chao Jianling are simple friends, and they will not anger the emperor because of what happened to Chao Jianling.

"Yes, I know that."

"By the way, you were in prison this morning, and you listened to her. My God, Zhang Yu killed her husband and went to prison, how did she appear in your Sanguan Temple unscathed? Don't you think it's weird? ”

With that, Runye suddenly came to his senses.

"Paying off debts and killing people to pay for their lives, maybe it's because Zhang Yu was pregnant at the time?"

Lu Mingci shook his head, it was definitely not so simple.

"Our court decrees that if a woman becomes pregnant and commits a capital offense, she shall be sentenced to death for three months of breastfeeding after the child is born. Although Zhang Yu is pregnant with a child, she should not be let out. There must be something strange about this. ”

Runye frowned, unable to figure it out.

The doorways in this are too complicated, he has never been exposed to these before, and now let him say one, two, three, he really can't do it.

Lu Mingci touched his chin and said, "Zhang Yu, this person, has a lot of material to dig into. So I decided to stick to Ganzhou first and find out these things clearly, and it is best to involve Chao Jianling. Chao Jianling has been imprisoned, but we still can't find evidence of his crime. ”

Runye was really a little angry when she heard Lu Mingci's words.

"People didn't commit any crimes at all, you were framed in prison, of course you can't find out anything!"

Lu Mingci laughed when he heard Runye say this.

"Runye, there is no excuse for the crime you want to add, even if he is not at fault for Chao Jianling, the emperor doesn't like him, we have thousands of ways to let him die. It's just that my master thinks that the work needs to be done is a little more real, so let's check first. Check that the results can't come out for a year or two, and then graft some things. So, tomorrow, you and I will go back to Beijing to report on our work. After that, I will stay in Yunmeng Town to dig up Zhang Yu, this woman, you go to Guanzhong and find Zhu Hongyu. ”

Runye sighed, he was very dissatisfied with Lu Mingci's laughter, and he also felt a chill all over his body.

There is no sad relationship between Chao Jianling and him, he knows that he is not familiar with Chao Jianling.

But people can empathize.

Runye is now half a foot into officialdom.

Today's Chao Jianling was imprisoned without any fault, and it is difficult to guarantee that it will be him tomorrow. Once he loses his power in front of the emperor, the emperor sees him unhappy again, and it is enough to die 10,000 times.

This is the reason why many people who have broken the investigation are reluctant to become officials in the court.

A companion is like a tiger.

"Now that you've decided, there's nothing more for me to say."

Saying that, Runye was a little lost, and Lu Mingci saw all this in his eyes.

"Hmm...... So I'm going to pick you up tomorrow morning? ”

Seeing that Runye was lost, Lu Ming resigned coldly, and then changed to a warm-hearted heart, and was respectful to Runye.

But in fact, he didn't have to do it for a long time, and Runye would see everything in his eyes.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

Lu Mingci looked at Runye and hurriedly asked, "You caught the traitor this morning, is it inappropriate to go back to Sanguan Temple now?" ”

Speaking of Sanguan Temple, Runye remembered that there were still more than a dozen people in his temple, and he remembered that Zhu Hongyu's family was almost out of food.

He slapped the table, startling Lu Mingci.

"By the way, why did I just patronize and eat by myself and forget about the things in the temple!"

Lu Mingci saw that Runye was no longer steady, but became anxious, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" What's going on? Can I fix it? ”

Runye looked at Lu Mingci and nodded hurriedly.

"That's right, let you settle this matter. Aren't you wrapped up in this Wan Fulin? Let them bring rice and rape today, and hurry up with me to Zhu's house! The Zhu family was about to run out of food by Zhang Yu! ”

Lu Mingci looked at Runye suspiciously.

"Why, do you know so about their family?"

"Hurry up."

Lu Mingci waved his hand and asked Zhu Amber to hurry up and prepare.

Amber heard that the family was about to run out of food, so she panicked for a while, and hurriedly ran to the shopkeeper and said that the cook would cook Yunyun.

The shopkeeper naturally didn't dare to offend the rich and powerful Lu Mingci, so he hurriedly sent a carriage to pull vegetables, rice, oil, salt, and a number of semi-finished cold dishes.

The two cars rushed towards Peach Blossom Village one after the other, and Zhu Amber silently thought in her heart: Hurry up...... A little faster......

She never thought that the departure of herself and her sister would be such a big risk, and she never thought that her younger brother would be starved of food while sitting at home.

This Zhang Yu, who has suffered a thousand cuts!

Peach Blossom Village, Zhu House.

Zhu Zhanao sat in the guest hall, he hadn't eaten for two days.

The vegetables grown at home are limited, especially when the weather is cold, and there is not much food in stock.

May walked in slowly from outside the door, holding a bowl of porridge that could illuminate the human figure, and put it in Zhu Zhanao's hand.

"Master, let's eat some. We have enough to eat! ”

Zhu Zhanao glanced at the inside of the rice bowl and quickly shook his head.

"This is the last bit of food for our family, and we can't waste it...... Mr. Shen is not sick, you can give him a drink! ”

May quickly shook her head and said, "Yesterday we shot two sparrows and took out the eggs. I roasted two sparrows for Mr. Shen and sent them over, and Mother Wei cooked the porridge. One bowl per person. ”

Zhan Ao hurriedly picked up the bowl and looked carefully to see that there was indeed something like egg flowers.

"If you bear with me, in just a few days, my sisters will definitely come back!"

May nodded, she was actually worried.

"Young master, I know. Will definitely come back, but you don't know when they'll come, do you? ”

Zhu Zhanao showed a bleak smile and looked at May.

"That's right...... Who knows? ”

When he was talking to Zhu Zhanao in May, Li Yi hurriedly ran in, and when he entered the door, he was thrown by the threshold.

Hit the nose and bleed.

"Young master, there's a knock outside the door! Miss is back! ”
