Chapter Twenty-Six: Wu's Mother and Daughter Are Forced to Catch the Plague
Jiang Yu's hesitation fell in Mu Wan'er's eyes, and it became a maintenance of that person.
She thought about it, and she didn't force Jiang Yu.
"Okay, Yu'er won't say it if she doesn't want to say it, but don't let others see this book, otherwise it will ......"
Jiang Yu nodded immediately.
There's no way she'll let anyone else see it.
While the two were talking, they saw Jiang's father coming.
Jiang Yu deliberately paid attention to Mu Wan'er's expression, and found that although her expression was flat, her eyes were still a little happy.
It seems that his mother still has feelings for him.
Jiang Yu had already guessed the purpose of his visit, and after thinking about it, she didn't let her mother leave.
It's better to be sad for a while now than to be sad for the rest of your life.
"It's so fragrant, it's Wan'er's own hand."
As soon as Father Jiang entered the room, he said pretendly, paying attention to Mu Wan'er's expression as he spoke.
Mu Wan'er really liked Father Jiang's set, and immediately smiled:
"Yes, these are all made for Yu'er, you can taste them too."
She said so, and Father Jiang was naturally not polite, and immediately ate it.
He thought that Mu Wan'er was childish, but he had to admit that the pastries she made every time were delicious, much better than the cook.
If it weren't for Wu Li's jealousy and refusing to let him go to Mu Wan'er's yard, even if he was for this, he wouldn't have snubbed Mu Wan'er too much.
Jiang Yu looked at Father Jiang coldly, ignored it, and stopped Ziyue who wanted to speak.
Opening her mouth at this time will only make her mother feel guilty about Jiang's father.
waited until Jiang's father ate for a while, and then remembered to get down to business.
"Yu'er, I heard that you went to Foyin Temple two days ago, and you see that Wan'er's head disease is also cured, is it time to let Xue'er and them come back?"
He has been busy with the people in the court for the past two days, just waiting to hand over Liu Shangshu's position, who knows what plague suddenly broke out in the past two days, so that he didn't wait until now.
Only then did I remember that Xue'er's mother and daughter hadn't come back for a long time.
But now it seems that since Master Mu has agreed to him, he will definitely not be angry with Xue'er and Wu Li.
The main thing is that he misses their mother and daughter very much.
Jiang Yu sneered in her heart.
It's finally here.
Her expression became a little worried.
"But a few days ago, when I went to Foyin Temple, they were also coughing, and their faces were very unsightly, I was afraid that they were ......."
Before she finished her words, Father Jiang's expression changed.
What are you afraid of?
The symptoms were so similar to the plague that had recently gone viral, would he dare to risk taking it back?
"Yu'er, are you telling the truth?"
He looked at Jiang Yu, hoping to hear a negative answer from Jiang Yu, or that it was a lie to him, but Jiang Yu said with certainty:
"At that time, there was a doctor who went to diagnose them, although it was an ordinary wind cold, but I heard the monks in the temple say that they have not been well for the past few days, and they are resting in the Zen temple."
As soon as these words came out, the last luck in Jiang's father's heart was gone.
Infected with the wind and cold, I have been coughing non-stop, and I haven't gotten better for so long, no matter how I hear it, it's a symptom of the plague.
His official career is now in full swing, and it is the most critical time, and he does not dare to gamble with his life.
But they are his wives and daughters, and if he leaves them alone, he can't get over it in his heart.
"Even if you want to take them back now, I'm afraid you can't, the plague is so serious, how can the emperor not care?"
Since ancient times, plagues have been rampant, and the most common first step is to lock down the city.
How could Father Jiang not understand this.
He sighed deeply, only to feel that the pastries in his mouth were tasteless.
"Well, send someone for my father to serve them, and then bring them back when they are completely well. In this way, the whole house will not be harmed. ”
Mu Wan'er listened to the conversation between the two all the time, and didn't say anything, until Father Jiang finished speaking and left, and didn't pay attention to her anymore.
She glanced at Jiang's father's back in disbelief, and it seemed that what she saw the most in her memory was his back.
She heard it very clearly just now, Father Jiang was obviously very worried about the Wu family's mother and daughter, she knew that women should be tolerant and generous to concubines and concubines, but just now she couldn't help but be sad.
Jiang Yu took in everything and did not comfort her mother.
This matter is in a hurry, she can only take her time, and she can't stimulate her mother all at once.
After Jiang's father left, he sent people to Foyin Temple in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner, but as soon as those people left, there was news outside that the prince ordered people to seal the city and arrest the infected people.
……
Prince's Mansion.
Helian Chen and Helian stood opposite each other, and the two did not give in to each other, and the invisible momentum forced the eunuchs around them to retreat.
Helian Chen originally planned to arrest and burn all these people to death, but now not only the doctors outside have no choice, but even the imperial doctors in the palace are helpless.
Even if he is the crown prince, he can't save them!
But Helian refused to do so.
"If they don't die, more people will be implicated in the future, and the entire capital, even you and Gu, as well as your father and the emperor will be threatened, or is it all your idea, uncle?"
Helian Chen squinted his eyes and sneered, his eyes full of calculation.
This imperial uncle has been in charge of the government for so many years, and he has never taken him as a prince in his eyes, and now that there is such a crisis in the capital, he just threw this mess to him, and he actually wanted to interfere.
Could it be that he really caused this plague?
Helian Lin looked at Helian Chen, the two of them were eight years apart, when he became the regent, Helian Chen was still a seven-year-old child, well-behaved and cute.
Because the royal brother is sick and the heirs are thin, only the prince has one son.
He secretly protected this nephew at that time, but he didn't expect that after Helian Chen grew up, he became close to the Xue family, and he was even more jealous of him.
It's ridiculous!
If he really wants to get to that position, where do you need to wait for these ten years.
"Don't use the royal brother to suppress this king, this king wants to kill you, and there is no need to implicate the innocent."
Helian spoke disdainfully.
If it weren't for these innocent people, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to Helian Chen.
"You!"
Helian Chen was annoyed, and then thought of Uncle Xue's entrustment, now that his wings were not full, it was not appropriate to clash with Helian Chen, so he endured it.
"So what do you say you should do?"
"This matter is entrusted to you, what does this king have to do? If the crown prince doesn't want to have a reputation for killing innocents indiscriminately and disregarding people's lives, it is better to deal with those people properly. ”
Helian Lin kicked the matter back again.
With that, he turned and left.
This nephew doesn't know what to do, and he is still ambitious, and he now feels that the emperor's concerns are not superfluous.
With this brain, after ascending the throne, the country will sooner or later fall into the hands of the Xue family.
However, Ji Chang once said that the condition of the sick seedling of the Xue family did not seem to be so serious......
As soon as Helian Lin left the Prince's Mansion, he saw Ji Chang running over with a guilty expression.
"Your Highness, Ji Ru left the palace and got rid of the people who followed her secretly."
Ji Chang originally thought that Helian Lin would be angry, and he was ready to bear the anger, but he saw that the face of the master who had always been indifferent was full of anxiety.
"Damn it!"
