"Concubine Xian, your father, the official of speech, doesn't seem to have a great effect!" Zhang Guifei raised her eyelids, her face full of displeasure.

"Please forgive me! It's all to blame for the concubine's father's inability! Failed to convince His Majesty to change his attention! Concubine Xian hurriedly got up and bowed her head.

"Who can change what Your Majesty is going to decide? This palace is saying that your father didn't contact other officials at all, and went to solve the matter in advance! This imperial concubine's tone was full of complaints! With anger in her eyes, she looked directly at the concubine below.

"Please be clear! Then Li Shangshu and Wen Shilang had no warning beforehand! It happened suddenly! So the concubine's father is really ......," Concubine Xian was so frightened that she quickly knelt down.

"It's useless!" Zhang Guifei was very depressed and panted unsmoothly and said angrily: "Does this still need to be tricked by others before it can be drilled out?" No brains at all! In vain, my brother was recommended to become a speech official! This official is not ugly, what is the use of it? ”

"Please forgive me! Please forgive the concubine's father! Xu Yushi is also as helpless as his father! ”

"It's even more angry to mention this Xu Yu Shi Palace! Originally, he was ashamed to say that he would let Gao, the daughter of the Wen family, marry Ning'er! Didn't do it at all! It's a shame that my brother trusts him so much! ”

"Niangniang, last time you said that you wanted the eldest prince to marry Miss Nawen as a side room, I don't know if the Queen Mother didn't approve it, or Your Majesty didn't agree?" Concubine Hui didn't know why, so she suddenly asked.

"What? Concubine Hui, are you doubting Hongu's abilities!? ”

"Concubines don't dare! I just think this thing is too sudden, since they all hope that their marriage between Li Wen and Li Wen will not be successful, why did it happen again!? ”

"You ask me, I ask who goes? The Queen Mother hasn't had time to tell Her Majesty about this, and Your Majesty hasn't said anything about it."

"Niangniang, I heard rumors in the palace, it seems that His Majesty still has a liking for this girl! So..."Concubine Chen saluted, rolled her eyes and said carefully.

"Enough, you know how to play foxes at a young age! I will pay it back in the future! It's also thanks to not marrying Ning'er, otherwise, I'm afraid there will be no peaceful land in the harem in the future! ”

"Wise mother!"

"Alright, get up! Since he Li Shangshu has taken a fancy to it, let's wait to see the excitement of the Li family! Hehe" This concubine seems to be a little relieved.

"Hehe" several concubines followed proudly.

"Wait until the two families are inseparable because of this woman! Isn't that what you want? Hehe," Concubine Chen pouted and laughed a few times after speaking.

"No, the general's letter said that the marriage between these two families must be stopped, it seems that it is not trivial, so I should think of another way" The noble concubine's eyes suddenly appeared murderous again! The handkerchief in his hand was clenched......

Wenbo Chengwen Shilang, a group of four of them, arrived in Gu'an County all the way non-stop.

It's getting late.

"My lord, should we go directly to the government office or to the post station?" One of the guards who followed Wen Bocheng asked Wen Bocheng.

"No, after all, we're here to check on the disaster. Go straight to the family and stay first."

"Yes"

......

"Old man, we are passing by here, you see that it is getting late, let us stay for one night, and we will leave tomorrow morning" Wen Bo Cheng saw that the guards were still discussing with the housekeeper, so he personally came over and said to Shi Li.

"This guest officer, it's not that I don't take you in, it's just that there is a famine here, and the government stipulates that outsiders are not allowed to be taken in, so as not to be infected with the plague! Besides, we don't have anything to eat at home, and you really can't entertain you here," the old man was full of sadness and helplessness.

"Don't worry about the old people, the dry food we bring ourselves is enough, and we won't bother in vain," Wen Bocheng finished speaking, and Zhao Wenqiu made a gesture.

Wen Qiu hurriedly took out the silver taels from the cloth bag and handed them over.

"I didn't mean that, I'm worried that you won't be able to live here," the old man looked out with some trepidation.

"It's okay, we're also from the village, so we don't care so much"

"That! Alas! Then since you insist on staying, then come in," the old man sighed, and finally left the door open.

"Thank you, old man"

"Actually, I'm still a little far away from the village, so I can let you come and live, if you go inside, I'm afraid no one will stay overnight" The old man seemed to mumble to himself as he walked inside, as if he had said something to Wen Bocheng.

"Why is that?" Wen Bocheng asked.

"Alas! It's hard to put into words! ”

Wen Bocheng didn't ask any more questions.

In this small courtyard, there are three north rooms, as well as a west house and an east house. The yard was cleaned.

After entering the house, I found that it was really a house with four walls!

"Guest officer, sit down, our family has nothing to entertain, let's drink some water and rest first"

"Don't bother you, you can sit down and rest, Wen Qiu" Wen Bocheng motioned for Wen Qiu to give the silver taels to the old man.

"Don't, don't, you only stay one night, out of the way. can't be collected, can't be collected," the old man pushed again and again, and let Wen Qiu hand over the silver and insisted on not accepting it.

"Take it, it's so late to disturb, you can take us to stay! Otherwise, how can we live in peace?"

"This is really polite" The old man happily took the silver two: "This is too much, and there is nothing for you to eat in one night"

"Not much! Take it."

"Thank you so much! Old woman, you can buy some food for the big dog tomorrow and send it to you" The old man happily handed the money to the old woman, and accidentally revealed his heart.

"The big dog?" Who is Wen Bocheng! Nature does not let go of the information that flows out naturally.

"Oh, my son, it's all right, it's all right, you rest here, and my wife and I will go to sleep in the room outside," the old man said and was about to turn around and go out.

"No, how can we take your resting place? Let's just go to the outhouse."

"This is really not good, there are many of you, the outhouse is small, and it is suitable for the two of us to live"

"Is that okay? You continue to live in the back room, I see that this outside is very spacious, just take some firewood and grass for a few of us to stay overnight, anyway, we are in a hurry early in the morning" Wen Bocheng.

"No, no, no"

"Okay, that's it."

"What a good guy this guest is!" Old woman.

After dinner, Wen Qiu and the others followed the old man to the west house to find a few broken mats, and hugged some hay, and the old woman found two beds of patches and sheets on them, fortunately, the weather was not cold, and it didn't matter if they slept in clothes.

It's just that he was in the same room all night, and he didn't feel sleepy, which is also what Wen Bocheng wanted.

"Old man, I heard that there is a famine here? Is it serious? ”

"You should have seen it all the way, natural disaster! There is no harvest in the field, and the people rely on the sky for food, and this disaster is really difficult."

"Isn't there government relief? And those big families set up porridge sheds."

"That's also limited, at our age, we can just eat one meal a day. Children and young adults need food! They go to eat twice a day, this starvation is a saying, didn't there be another plague a few days ago, this government spent all its attention on how to get rid of the plague! It's even less reliable."

"Oh, it looks pretty quiet when you enter the village! Didn't see any quarantine or anything like that."

"It's all at the foot of the mountain in the west of the village, and the government has worked a lot hard to isolate them!"

"Yes! My baby was fine, but he rushed there with a fever! Isn't it contagious even if you don't have a disease? The old woman's face was full of sadness.

"What does your old woman know?" The old man suddenly came to his senses and reprimanded the old woman.

"I don't think they're bad people, so I'll just tell you the truth, what's wrong? Our baby is not a plague at all, it is hungry and has no strength, and it feels a little hot, but it is not a plague at all! They caught them alive and went there." The old lady wiped away her tears.

"The old woman was right! How can the government arrest people so indiscriminately? ”

"What can she understand as a woman?" The old man tilted his head after speaking, and it seemed that there was something unspeakable.

"Along the way, I heard that there was a small official who was very good for the people," Wen Bocheng asked.

"You've heard that, too? This little official is indeed very good, at the beginning of the famine, thanks to him to find a way, let the villagers dig wild vegetables, pick leaves, and then put some grain noodles to boil porridge and drink, and the rest of the sun is dried and kept for slow use. Then he went to persuade big families to set up porridge sheds, and he was beaten and scolded a lot for this! He also went to the government and asked the government to send someone to disinfect it, so as not to be infected with the plague. That little official has put a lot of thought into it! It all looked pretty good. But then, I don't know who I offended, and I made a fuss for a while, and I heard that yesterday I was also driven to the foot of the mountain, saying that I also had the plague."

"Nonsense! It's just audacious..."Wen Bocheng was very angry when he heard it.

"Don't say that, everything is up to the government!" The old man reminded him for fear of causing some trouble.

"From here, all the way west to the place where the plague is isolated, right?" Wen Bocheng asked.

"No, you can't go, you have to continue to take a detour south to go"

"Why?"

"Fear of contagion"

"Nonsense, it's to invite merit, this outsider came in and looked as if there was nothing wrong, the great credit of the government, in fact, they were covered up by the lack of medicine. My poor baby," said the old woman, she wept.

"You old woman is talking nonsense again," the old man reprimanded the old woman again.

"This guest officer is not that kind of person at first glance, so let me tell the truth and relieve my anger! You say, I'm just such a baby, I'm driven there to suffer, can my wife feel good! The old woman couldn't help it.

"You..."

"Okay, okay, the old woman is also thoughtful, we are not people who are wrong, maybe you can tell the truth, we can help something! But it doesn't hurt to say."

When the old man heard Wen Bocheng's words, he suddenly had tears in his eyes, and said all the illusions here! .....
