Chapter 345 Trip to Lanning City

Bai Yuanzhi was sitting in the carriage, looking lazy, but she was actually holding a silver needle in her hand, whenever she saw someone in danger, she would shoot the silver needle in her hand and secretly help him.

Fortunately, everyone was very upbeat, and I don't know if they knew that she was sick, everyone, big and small, was very clean and neat, but the silver needle in her hand was useless.

Seeing those horse thieves being knocked down one by one, Bai Yuanzhi nodded in relief, and quietly put away the silver needles.

The road to Lanning City is not far but not close. In addition to the early spring, the remaining snow has not yet melted, the road is not easy to walk, and the road is delayed for some time.

The small group of horse thieves also met a few times, but they were all safe and sound, and there was nothing serious, and they arrived in Lanning City safely.

Originally, there was an arrest warrant for Bai Yuanzhi and the others on the notice board at the gate of Lanning City, but after several months of searching, there was no news.

I don't know if something happened to Yuan Chengyi's side, and all the arrest warrants have been withdrawn. Bai Yuanzhi is happy to see the result, and it will be more convenient for them to travel without the arrest warrants.

A group of people entered Lanning City and went straight to the county government office. Too many people is not good, so they all went in, so they divided into two groups, and asked Bai Yuanbin to take a few children to the inn first.

Bai Yuanzhi originally wanted to bring Jiang Ye to find Lu Shiqing, but he couldn't stand A Qi begging for nothing, so he insisted on following them, so the three of them knocked on the county government's door together.

Lu Shiqing was sent to Lanning City from another place, and he doesn't have his own house here. He usually lives in the house behind the county government office, but there is still a distance from the main gate of the county government office. It is inaudible in the courtyard behind.

I don't know if it was a coincidence that Bai Yuanzhi and his party came here, it happened to be the day when the county government was going to sleep, there was not a single servant in the yamen, Bai Yuanzhi and the others knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.

In desperation, Bai Yuanzhi had no choice but to take Jiang Ye and A Qi around again, and went around to the small gate at the back of the yamen, from which it could directly connect to the backyard.

Bai Yuanzhi has already made up her mind, if no one responds to the gunman this time, she can only take someone back first, and come back when there is someone.

Fortunately, this time, Bai Yuanzhi didn't knock on the door for long, when she heard the sound of footsteps coming from inside the door, after a while, Lu Shiqing came to open the door.

He was wearing a dark blue cotton robe, with black fur around the neckline, giving him a more mature and stable atmosphere. The weather is still cold, and he is wearing a big black coat outside.

Lu Shiqing was slightly taken aback when he looked at Bai Yuanzhi and his party standing outside the door.

Bai Yuanzhi smiled at Lu Shiqing, and then spoke first: "Master Lu, I wonder if you still remember us?"

Lu Shiqing looked at the three people outside the door, and felt that the woman who spoke looked familiar, but he recognized the man in a moon-white robe beside her at a glance.

"It's Miss Bai and Mr. Jiang?" Lu Shiqing's tone was a little doubtful, but he confirmed that Mr. Jiang, after all, it's hard to forget such a good-looking appearance.

On the contrary, he was a bit afraid to recognize this bright and heroic woman in front of him.

Bai Yuanzhi smiled lightly and nodded: "It's us, I wonder if Lord Lu can let us go in first?"

Lu Shiqing was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly stepped aside and let the door open, with a somewhat apologetic expression on his face: "Sorry, I was negligent, it's quite cold outside due to the strong wind."

Bai Yuanzhi bowed her head slightly, and brought Jiang Ye and A Qi into the door together, followed by Lu Shiqing into the room, and the chill subsided a bit.

Lu Shiqing poured hot tea for them, and then asked Bai Yuanzhi and the others why they came: "Madam Bai, what's the matter here?"

It's been several months, and he doesn't think about the beast, maybe it's really tricky, but fortunately, maybe it's cold in winter, and the beast didn't come out to make trouble.

When the weather gets warmer, he still wants to take people to Yitai Mountain again. The beast will not be removed for a day, and keeping it is always a hidden danger.

While Lu Shiqing was pouring tea for them, Bai Yuanzhi had already quietly looked around the room, but found that there seemed to be no one else in the room except Lu Shiqing, so she couldn't help being a little surprised.

After all, when they came last time, there were still many servants left in Lu Shiqing's house.

Seeing Bai Yuanzhi's expression, Lu Shiqing smiled and explained: "I have dismissed all the servants in the house, and now there is no one else here except me."

Surprised by Lu Shiqing's frankness, Bai Yuanzhi asked a little more: "Did something happen?"

Speaking of this, the smile on Lu Shiqing's face faded a bit, and he looked at the frowning face: "It's not all caused by the troubles of the world, the weather this winter is extremely cold, and many people died of freezing, let alone What livestock.

If it was just like this, it would be fine, but for some reason, news came back from many places in the whole Yucheng, saying that someone had a strange disease, and everyone who had contact with it also fell ill. "

Lu Shiqing sighed when he said that: "This is a troubled time, natural disasters and man-made disasters come together, and it is the people who suffer in the end.

Since I came here to be an official, I have to be responsible to the people in this land. It makes no sense that those poor people can’t even afford food, but I, as a parent and official, still hug my servants. "

Hearing what Lu Shiqing said, Bai Yuanzhi had a little more admiration for the person in front of her. When she met last time, she only thought that Lu Shiqing seemed like a nice person.

Now it seems that this Lu Shiqing is indeed a good official, and he is definitely not the same as the previous Zhao Qiwen.

"So you sent your servants away, and all the money you saved was used to help the people?" Bai Yuanzhi looked at Lu Shiqing, although it was a question, but his tone was somewhat certain.

Lu Shiqing smiled and nodded: "Miss Bai is smart, I just try my best to do something for the common people.

Let's not talk about this, I don't know why Miss Bai came here today? "

"It seems that Mr. Lu has forgotten in a hurry. I have already dealt with the beast on Yitai Mountain. I wonder if what Mr. Lu promised me before is still worth it?" Bai Yuanzhi explained the purpose of coming with a light smile.

Lu Shiqing was startled, he never expected that Bai Yuanzhi's coming this time was really for the sake of that beast, he thought that this matter could not be accomplished.

"Of course I haven't forgotten. You really solved the beast on Yitai Mountain?" Lu Shiqing still felt a little unbelievable. When he first arrived in Lanning City, he heard people mention the beast on Yitai Mountain.

He also sent people to Mount Yitai to get rid of that beast, but he didn't expect that beast to be so fierce that all the people he sent returned without success.

If Miss Bai really got rid of the beast on Yitai Mountain, it would really benefit the common people.
