The capital, the imperial palace.

The voice of a person kneeling down and begging for mercy came from the cold palace that had always been cold.

"Master, have mercy on me! Master, have mercy on me!"

"Please give me another chance, master. She will definitely not be able to escape next time... That little old man Hong Xing betrayed my master. I will allow my subordinates to take advantage of him and capture that traitor Hong Xing to my master..."

A sarcastic laugh came from behind a shabby screen, "Time after time, I let her escape. I didn't necessarily want her life, I just didn't want her to cure Xiao Qi."

"But this time, she is really eye-opening..."

The person kneeling on the ground begged for mercy again, "Please give me a chance, Master. There is a master beside her, but that person is also seriously injured. She will not be so lucky next time."

After a long time, the person behind the screen said: "This is the time to employ people, so your life will be recorded for you first, but..."

If you don't do anything anymore, don't get this head.

"My subordinate understands!"

……

Guanping Village.

After Lu Zheng got up, when he opened the window, he saw a whole yard of people, but everyone was quiet. When they heard the sound of the window opening, everyone looked over.

Huasui stepped forward quickly, "Girl, you woke up. Do you want to eat now?"

Lu Zheng nodded, "Have you all eaten?"

It was too late yesterday, so everyone did not leave. They stayed in Guanping Village for the night. The village chief happily arranged houses for everyone and asked the people in the village to provide them with the cleanest and best bedding.

Lu Zheng and Xiao Qi stayed at the village chief's house.

After a hearty meal, Lu Zheng and others were ready to leave. Before leaving, she took Guan Ju's pulse again and gave her instructions.

"You continue to take Dr. Zhang's medicine. I will discuss the prescription with him again. Even if I leave the capital, I will write to him. He is a good doctor. You can trust him."

Guan Ju nodded solemnly, his voice slightly choked, "Thank you, Divine Doctor Lu."

When we were leaving, all the villagers from Guanping Village came, and their hands were full of things. They were either eggs from their own chickens or dried wild vegetables and mountain products. The villagers were a little embarrassed, but the village chief expressed everyone's wishes. These were all given to Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng looked at the dried mushrooms and already thought about how to eat them. Seeing Lu Zheng's expression, Xiao Qi glanced at Xiao Fuzi. Xiao Fuzi immediately understood and asked the guards to carry them.

Then he touched his body and gave all the money he had to the village chief, asking him to distribute it to the villagers.

"This is the accommodation fee given by my eldest son to everyone. You must accept my eldest son's kindness and distribute it to the villagers."

The village chief said several times to stop him, but Xiao Fuzi came closer and said something to him. The village chief was startled, glanced in the direction of Lu Zheng, and then accepted it.

When leaving, Shen Guiyi glanced at the village chief a few more times. The old village chief felt an inexplicable chill on the back of his neck. When he went to look for the source, all he saw was the backs of Lu Zheng and others leaving.

Shortly after leaving Guanping Village, Xiao Fuzi asked on behalf of Xiao Qi, "Where is Shaoxia Lu? Why don't you see him today?"

Lu Zheng held a handful of hazelnuts that Xiao Qi had just peeled for her. While eating, she said, "Don't worry about him, he will go back on his own."

"This hazelnut is quite fragrant. You can make cakes when you go back. Xiao Qi, you can try it."

Xiao Qi smiled and took the hazelnuts from her hand. Just as he was about to pass a few to Shen Guiyi, he saw that Shen Guiyi was lost in thought and Xiao Qi gently tugged on his sleeve.

Shen Guiyi looked a little serious and glanced around. Xiao Fuzi and others automatically slowed down a few steps. Xiao Fuzi did not forget to hand him the pamphlet he had urgently made for Xiao Qi early in the morning.

"Aci, do you think there is anything different about Guanping Village?"

Xiao Qi shook his head. He didn't notice that if there was any difference, it was that there were too few young and middle-aged men, and there were mostly old, weak, women and children.

Guanping Village is surrounded by mountains and there is little farmland. Maybe all the young and strong people have gone out to work?

Shen Guiyi didn't care that Lu Zheng was beside him, "I had nothing to do this morning. I went to walk around the village and accidentally walked into the ancestral hall of Guanping Village."

Seeing Xiao Qi and Lu Zheng looking at him, he continued: "Aci, Guanping Village was not called Guanping Village originally, it was called Longdu Village..."

Lu Zheng had no reaction, she had never heard of it, but Xiao Qi's expression suddenly changed.

Longdu Village...

I have a cold, and I have a runny nose while typing. It’s getting colder, kids, please keep warm.
