Raiders of the Duke and Duchess

Ji Wuyan secretly said something bad, but it was too late.

The arm holding his own tightened suddenly. Shen Luoxin's expression had changed. The blood on his face had faded and he remained motionless. Ji Wuyan just lamented that today was really unlucky, so he should stay in the courtyard behind closed doors to thank guests, what Qingshan to see, what clothes to wear...

Her mind was spinning a thousand times, but she had a calm look on her face. She tilted her head and whispered in her ear, "I just heard that there is not much hearsay about this now? What's more, there are so many people in Dali Temple now." People, how many coincidences does it take to be that person? Right?"

Shen Luoxin pursed her lips and said nothing. Things like coincidence are always good or bad. What's more, even if it is only one in ten thousand chances, when it really lands on that person, it will be a 100% disaster. . She had never experienced the epidemic era, and had only seen descriptions in books of corpses everywhere, fires igniting outside the city gates at every turn, a disgusting smell in the air, and people panicking and trembling with fear.

But when the word "epidemic" really happened around her, she realized that those descriptions that seemed like the end of the world did not appear. Should the bosses eat or eat, play or frolic, walk around the streets or hang out? In the lane, normal life has not been broken. Except for the worries caused by unknown truth in the topics after tea and dinner, nothing seems to have changed.

So, these days, she was always in a daze, feeling nervous and worried, but at the same time, she could not help but continue to slack off, thinking that maybe the disease was not contagious, or... it was nothing more than that...

Seeing her depressed look, Ji Wuyan tugged on her arm and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, there is a third brother watching over at Dali Temple. If it is what you are worried about, how could he not receive any news, right? ? Just say that you believe in Third Master’s ability, or do you believe in these hearsay things? "

Several people were close to each other. Even though Ji Wuyan said this in a low voice, the other party could roughly understand it. Hearing this, he was not convinced. He turned around with his hands on his hips and yelled, "Hey, what do you mean by hearsay? As a little girl, you can just eavesdrop on what your elders are saying, but why are you still making arrogant comments and slanders behind your back? This is how your elders taught you? I tell you, this is not hearsay, this is a fact! My lord is here As an official in the court, the information is much better than that of you two little girls. He has already said that the imperial doctor knelt in front of the minister of Dali Temple for a long time before he invited Qin Taiyi to go to Dali Temple to diagnose and treat the man... …Can it still be fake?!”

The fingertips holding his arm tightened suddenly, and Ji Wuyan almost screamed out in surprise! Little Nizi, who had thought Wenwen was weak before, now had her claws firmly clamped on Ji Wuyan's arm like iron. However, this little girl who was "as strong as an ox" didn't have any color on her face. He was completely white, and his figure was so shaky that it looked like it could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Only then did the shopkeeper notice Ji Wuyan behind him, and hurriedly greeted with a smile, "Girl, are you here? Why don't you take care of those boys... They are getting more and more unruly. I will serve the girl right now. Let’s go to tea!”

Familiar, enthusiastic, and with a bit of respect, he even forgot the two ladies where they were.

The two ladies were slightly startled, and looked at each other. They both saw an astonished expression in the other's eyes, as well as a bit of solemnity - they both knew what this kind of respect meant. Yun Brocade Cloth Shop is considered to be one of the best shops in Yanjing City. Although the shopkeeper is enthusiastic, his words and deeds are always a bit distant and polite, like "the shop owner doesn't care about customers". However, because the shopkeeper always treats people like this, and he has never been rude, he No one cares.

Unexpectedly, this time there was an unprecedented familiarity and respect. This girl is probably a big customer - a big customer of Yun Brocade Cloth Shop. What kind of financial background does she have?
The lady who had just scolded the other party's elder realized that she had made a mistake. She smiled and selectively forgot about this "accident". She took her friend aside and pretended to pick some fabrics, but her attention was always on Ji Wuyan. side.

Ji Wuyan sighed softly in his heart, regretting even more that he took Shen Luoxin out - as expected, anger makes people lose their mind.

There are probably four characters on the almanac today, and everything is not appropriate.

She didn't want to "communicate" with these two ladies. Regardless of whether the other party heard about it or not, she just wanted to comfort Shen Luoxin and find a reasonable reason to go home. However, this lady was quite competitive. In order to It proved that what she said was true, and she kept saying more and more... If she could have been persuaded before that so many people in Dali Temple would not be such a coincidence, but now she said with certainty, "The imperial censor has been kneeling for a long time to beg the imperial physician to enter Dali." "Temple diagnosis and treatment"... Who can ask the imperial censor to kneel down and ask for help from the minister of Dali Temple?

Yes, this does not prove that it is Xu Siniang who is sick. Perhaps Lord Shen loves his people like his own children and does not want any of his subjects to suffer such pain. For this reason, he did not hesitate to bend a man's knee to the hard-hearted Dali Temple Qing.

But the problem is, Shen Luoxin, who needs to hold on to herself to stand steady at this moment... Which explanation does she believe?
Ji Wuyan ignored the extremely competitive lady, only patted Shen Luoxin's hand and comforted softly, "Don't worry, I will ask the third brother tonight. His news will be faster than ours. If He didn't receive the news, so I went to Dali Temple to ask You Feng in person. Although this lady's words were decent, they were only passed down by word of mouth, and maybe the message was wrong from time to time. Not necessarily, right? Moreover, even if it is true, with me and Mr. Chen here, can you still not be able to protect even one person? Right? "

The lady next to her was stroking the fabric in her hand, but she had been listening with her ears perked up. She snorted slightly when she heard the words, "I really think I am a person. Master You of Dali Temple also said that I would meet him when I saw him, and even called him by his name." Name...if you want me to say it..."

Before she finished speaking, the person next to her tugged on her sleeves and reminded her in a low voice, "Stop talking! I just thought that the other girl looked strangely familiar, and now I remembered that the eldest girl from the Shen family Well!"

"Shen family? Which Shen family?"

"Ah! What's wrong with you! Shen Qian, the imperial censor, is the one who kneels down to the minister of Dali Temple. Her mother is Xu Siniang! Now both father and mother are in Dali Temple. Dad is kneeling down to the minister of Dali Temple. Okay, who do you think is infected with the disease?!"

The other party was slightly startled, and subconsciously looked at Shen Luoxin, looking at the other party's expression as if he was about to cry. After a while, he suddenly exclaimed as if he was struck by lightning, "Oh, my mother-in-law!"
