Noble First Daughter-in-law

The day dawned quickly, and soon after the night faded, the entire Daxing Palace was bathed in morning light.

Ministers of civil and military affairs filed in from the Hanguang Gate, walked forward along the corridor, passed through the Chengtian Gate, and finally arrived outside the Chengqing Hall on the west side of the Taiji Hall, and then went in one by one, listening to the eunuch in charge.

This is the place where Sheng Guo's justice and government work today.

Just after Mao, several groups of officials had come here to report the documents from various places. Yu Wenyuan sat at the top, and after discussing with Zhongshu and several officials under his door, he made a corresponding decision, and then they drafted the documents. Although there are many people and complicated things in all parties, there is no panic.

On the contrary, it is faster and more effective than when the emperor went to court to handle government affairs.

After a while, a group of officials came out with paperwork.

One of them looked down at the black and correct handwriting on the Chinese book in his hand, suddenly chuckled, and said, "I don't know when this plague will end."

The official next to him said: "You still care about this? Isn't this matter handed over to the two—Young Masters are handling it?"

The official said with a smile: "I am concerned about this word."

"Character?"

"When the plague is over, this word should turn red."

"..."

The official immediately understood what was going on, and the two of them said nothing more, just smiled meaningfully, and left Chengqing Hall hand in hand.

As soon as they left, a tall figure slowly walked up from the side.

It was Yu Wenye who had just finished discussing today's major events with Shen Wuzheng and Pei Xingyuan at the inn, and behind him was Shang Ruyi, who had a haggard look on his brows because he had not slept all night, but had a dignified expression.

Just when the two were about to approach Chengqing Hall, a familiar figure came out from inside.

It was Yu Dingxing who had just taken orders from Duke Sheng.

Seeing him, Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi took a step back at the same time, but this step was not fast, so that Yu Dingxing happened to see the two of them as soon as he walked out of the palace gate.

When the two met each other, they seemed to be stunned.

Yu Dingxing's big and deep eyes seemed to be hidden in a deep haze, and it was difficult to see the real emotions in those eyes, but at this moment, he could clearly feel a flash of light in those eyes. Immediately came forward, bowed his hands and saluted: "Second Young Master."

Yu Wenye also cupped his hands: "Master Yu."

"Second Young Master, what's the matter here?"

"Yes...some things need to be reported."

"The second son, go quickly."

"Okay, Lord Yu, let's get busy too."

The two exchanged casual greetings, and they were supposed to go their separate ways, but Yu Dingxing took another look at Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi's twinkling eyes, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said with a smile: "I still think about it." There are some things to report to the Duke, but I just forgot, why not go together."

Yu Wenye's complexion sank slightly, but he didn't show much expression of joy or anger, he just said: "So, okay..."

After finishing speaking, he took Shang Ruyi with him, and Yu Dingxing raised his hand with a smile, turned around and walked forward together with them. After only a few steps, he entered Chengqing Hall.

This palace was originally a place for Emperor Wen to collect books and read; later, after Chu Yang moved his capital, the place was abandoned a lot; although Yu Wenyuan supported the young emperor Chu Chengfei, he naturally did not have the hobby and habit of reading. It was only used as a collection of books, and it was not until this time that Yu Wenyuan used this place as a place to sit and do business that this spacious palace was seen again.

As soon as I walked in, I smelled a strong fragrance of ink in the air.

As soon as Yu Wenye raised his head, he saw that Yu Wenyuan was sitting in front of the main hall, holding a pen and writing. There were several stacks of documents on the desk in front of him that had not yet been reviewed.Under the left and right hands are Zhongshu and the officials under the sect, who are also working at their desks, writing hard.

Until I heard Yu Wenye's footsteps.

Everyone raised their heads, and when they saw him, there was a strange expression on their faces, but no one spoke, they just lowered their heads, but they all focused their eyes on Yu Wenyuan.

Yu Wenyuan didn't raise his head until he finished writing the last word.

Yu Wenye stepped forward immediately: "Father."

Shang Ruyi also hastily raised her hand and was about to salute, but Yu Wenyuan quietly closed the documents in his hand, put them on the pile of papers on the right hand side, and said, "Your father is not here."

Yu Wenye came back to his senses, and immediately bowed down at the same time as Shang Ruyi and said, "Meet the prime minister."

Only then did Yu Wenyuan loosen his frowning eyebrows, and seeing Yu Dingxing who had gone and returned, he said, "Why hasn't Mr. Yu left yet?"

Yu Dingxing immediately said: "Just now, there is one more thing that has not been reported to the Prime Minister."

"What's the matter?"

"This—since the general came first, please speak first."

"..."

Yu Wenyuan glanced at him, and didn't continue to ask. He only looked at Yu Wenye again, and said, "I heard that your people almost burned the East City last night. What's going on?"

Yu Wenye raised his brows slightly—in fact, he was not surprised that this matter was reported to Yu Wenyuan so quickly, but subconsciously glanced at Yu Dingxing who was standing beside him. Many patients, General Zuo Xiaowei, who has been staying in the palace guard since then, lowered his head slightly at this moment.

Yu Wenye immediately said: "It was a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding? How did you misunderstand?"

"It's Pei Xingyuan. The medicine he hoarded has run out. That's why there was a civil uprising in Changlefang yesterday. After that, he found a businessman on the black market to buy medicine, but he didn't expect that the other party would set up a trap to seek money and kill him." , and burn him to death.”

Yu Wenyuan frowned: "Is there such a thing?"

"Yes."

"Then, that kid from the Pei family—"

"The man has been rescued, and he is safe for the time being, but his family's medicines have been exhausted. Today—Changlefang can only temporarily use some decoctions to relieve cold symptoms to deal with the patients. We have to find a way to deal with this matter."

"..."

"As for burning the East City, that's nothing."

"..."

"After all, the entire Dongcheng is still under the jurisdiction of the eldest brother - the Minister of the Ministry of War. No matter how confused the general is, he will not make trouble for him."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a gentle voice say: "That's right."

Everyone turned their heads subconsciously, only to see a slender and handsome figure walking in from outside the hall, it was Yu Wenzhen, the servant of the Ministry of War whom Yu Wenye had talked about just now.

Seeing him, Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi immediately stepped aside.

Yu Wenyuan walked in, holding a document in his hand, first bowed to Yu Wenyuan who was sitting upright, Yu Wenyuan said: "You are here."

"Yes,"

Yu Wenye said: "Prime Minister Qi, someone has reported what happened last night. It is true that a few black market merchants invaded other people's warehouses, intending to harm Mr. Pei there, seek money and kill him. Fortunately, Admiral Tiance rescued him. It didn't cause any disaster."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi standing behind him.

The two immediately bowed their hands to him and saluted: "Brother."

Yu Wenjian nodded.

After hearing his words, Yu Wenyuan was silent again, and then said: "Since there is no major incident, it's good. However, this matter must be thoroughly investigated. Now that the plague is raging in the city, there are still so many patients waiting For medical treatment, there is someone who dares to seek wealth and death in the name of selling medicinal materials at this time, and must be strictly investigated!"

Yu Wenye immediately said: "Yes."

Hearing his answer, Yu Dingxing on the side immediately glanced at him, while Yu Wenyuan had already looked at Yu Wenzhen, and said, "By the way, what are you doing here early in the morning?"

When Yuwen heard the words, he immediately said: "After ten days of treatment in Yanzuo Square, 320 patients have recovered today. I would like to report to the prime minister and beg you to let them go home."

"Oh?"

When Yu Wenyuan heard the words, his face immediately became happy: "Has anyone recovered?"

The attendant next to him immediately stepped forward to take the document from Yu Wenzhen's hand and put it in front of him. After opening it for a look, Yu Wenyuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Okay."

With just one word, the atmosphere in Chengqing Hall changed again.

Especially Yu Dingxing, who was standing at the side, had a tinge of joy that could not be concealed in those deep sunken eyes at this moment, and when he looked at Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi, he saw that the faces of the other two were calm, although they couldn't see anything. However, the not-so-bright light in the hall still made the faces of the two of them look a bit gloomy.

However, after the initial joy, Yu Wenyuan still said with a serious face: "These more than 300 people have really recovered? You must find out, and they must not be allowed to leave the city with the disease."

"..."

"Even if there is one who leaves the city with the disease - you should know the consequences!"

"Your officer understands,"

Yu Wenzhen immediately said: "So, the next official specifically asked the prime minister to let the medical officers of the Imperial Medical Office—all the medical officers, go to Nancheng for a joint consultation in front of Mingde Gate. Everyone must go through the diagnosis of these medical officers before leaving the city. , make sure they are all cured, and then let them out of the city."

Hearing the words, Yu Wenyuan hesitated for a moment: "Will this be too exciting?"

Yu Wenwen said: "Although the teacher is mobilizing the crowd, it has no other purpose."

"Oh? You said."

"This is the first batch of patients to be cured. Moreover, they are all the people in the countryside outside the city. They have been sick for the longest time and are the most seriously ill. As long as they can all recover and go out of the city, the next patients believe that the chance of recovery will be greater. It will be very high, and this move can also give these patients a little confidence."

Hearing his words, Shang Ruyi stood aside, frowning involuntarily.

What Yu Wenjian said was indeed reasonable.

Sometimes, the treatment of epidemic diseases not only requires acupuncture stones and decoctions, but also the patient's own faith. If the belief is firm, some mild ailments can be cured even without the need for needle stone decoctions; Even a small illness can have unpredictable effects.

only--

Just when she was frowning but unable to speak, Yu Wenyuan pondered for a while and then slowly closed the document in her hand, then looked at the few people in the hall, and said, "What do you think?"

While speaking, his eyes had already fallen on Yu Wenye.
