It turns out that she is really a miracle doctor

Chapter 159 Leave Beijing quickly

"Longdu Village?" Lu Zheng asked.

What's the origin? Why is Xiao Qi looking so serious?

Shen Guiyi looked back at the direction of the village before answering Lu Zheng's doubts.

"When I was a child, I heard my father say that when the late emperor was in power, there were rumors in the capital that King Jingnan had a shadow guard with superb martial arts, and the leader of the shadow guard came from Longdu Village."

Although Longdu Village is under the jurisdiction of the capital, in fact the whole village only knows King Jingnan but not the current situation.

"Later, King Jingnan died in battle. Hearing that King Jingnan's old subordinates secretly reported that the leader had rebelled, they wanted to punish the leader. However, there was no trace of the leader at that time, so they wanted to jail all the villagers of Longdu Village. .”

Lu Zheng sneered and pointed out the key point, "Are you sure that Lord is not the enemy of King Jingnan?"

The guilty must be punished, and it is not a serious crime of treason, so why are they still sitting together?

Shen Guiyi and Xiao Qi looked at each other and were surprised by Lu Zheng's keenness. He said: "The late emperor was against it at the time and even reprimanded the gentleman privately. After all, the villagers of Longdu Village are also the subjects of the emperor. Today we Not many villagers were seen, but the population of Longdu Village back then was thousands."

Now that I think about it, the person who wants to punish the leader of the Shadow Guard may not really be from King Jingnan.

"Later, the late emperor did not pursue the villagers of Longdu Village, but the palace sent someone to pass the decree to Longdu Village. Once the shadow guard leader is found, no one is allowed to cover up, otherwise he will be punished with the same crime."

Shen Guiyi frowned slightly, "Many years later, a puzzling decree came to Longdu Village again."

Xiao Qi remembered that after the death of his uncle, Emperor Hongzhi, who only reigned for one year, the palace inexplicably issued a decree to Longdu Village.

"First, all descendants of Longdu Village are not allowed to participate in the imperial examination and become officials, and second, they are not allowed to use the name Longdu anymore."

Lu Zheng was stunned.

Just one sentence of not being able to take the scientific examination has ruined the hopes of many people. A village may not be able to produce a real scholar in a few years or even more than ten years.

Shen Guiyi's eyes fell on Xiao Qi's face and said: "I heard that we are also looking for that shadow guard now, Aci should know about it, right?"

Xiao Qi nodded. He knew that his father had also said that the palace suspected that King Jingnan had private soldiers, because during the Xuanping period, after his grandfather succeeded to the throne, he re-examined the treasury accounts and discovered that he had taken over. Almost an empty shell.

Many people suspected that the treasury money had been transferred by his great-grandfather Emperor Yuan Cheng, but Emperor Xuanping had just succeeded to the throne and did not dare to say anything wrong with the late emperor.

No evidence could be found. At that time, the Jingnan Palace and Longdu Village became the most important monitoring targets in the palace. Decades later, no one could find out where the Shadow Guards were.

Rather than saying that the emperors were secretly looking for the shadow guard, it is better to say that what they found was the gold and silver treasures that had been hidden during the Yuancheng period.

Xiao Qi saw that Lu Zheng was confused by what he heard, so he gestured to Shen Guiyi. Shen Guiyi hesitated for a long time before briefly informing Lu Zheng of the rumor.

Lu Zheng was startled, then smiled.

"The village just now? Is it still capable of hiding treasures? The best houses are probably the few tile-roofed houses of the village chief's house."

Who can believe it? Who would hide a large amount of treasure and leave it untouched for decades? Although the other families are not impoverished, they do not look wealthy either.

"These are just guesses, so the villagers in this village can live a stable life."

If there is even the slightest hint of something amiss, this village may cease to exist.

Finally, Shen Guiyi worriedly told Xiao Qi, "Anyway, if there is nothing important, A Ci should not go there again."

Those who knew it were Xiao Qi who followed Lu Zheng, but those who didn't know thought that the Lingyang Palace was coveting the treasure. Xiao Qi understood Shen Guiyi's good intentions, glanced at Lu Zheng, and nodded.

He was not afraid of gossip in the palace. If Lu Zheng wanted to go there, he would go with him. When Shen Guiyi saw Xiao Qi's expression, the corner of his mouth froze for a moment, and his explanation was in vain.

The group of people walked back until they reached the official road. The guards who were left to watch the horses rushed forward to greet them. The group of people entered the capital before noon.

As soon as he entered the capital, Shen Guiyi saw that the once bustling Shenwu Street was a little deserted today. For some reason, he felt a little panicked.

Shen Guiyi was about to send Xiao Qi back to Lingyang Palace, but Xiao Qi knew that Shen Guiyi had not returned home for two days and his family must be in a hurry, so he did not want Shen Guiyi to send him off and said that there were many people around him and it would be okay. Shen Guiyi said goodbye to Xiao Qi and returned to Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

In Cangwu Courtyard, the servants stood boredly on the corridor. In the corridor of the west wing stood two maids, one of whom asked the people around them.

"What are you looking at, Sister Hutao? If it hadn't been for the prince coming back, Eunuch Fu's voice would have been heard long ago."

Hu Tao smiled, "Yes, I'm just worried about the prince and Miss Lu."

The person next to me laughed and said: "Sister Hutao is so worried about the master, I think she will be promoted to a first-class maid soon, just like Sister Lianxin..."

Hu Taozong smiled and avoided her sight as if to dodge.

At this time, Meng Wanwan, who was sitting in front of the window blowing the wind, was a little restless and asked the maid Xiaoxiao several times if there was any news about Xiao Qi and Xiao Qi.

"Don't worry, Miss. Miss Lu is a good person, so she will be fine."

"Let's wait a little longer, but the prince said that we will leave by evening at the latest..."

leave? But what should they do?

Meng Wanwan was not heartless, Xiao Qi treated her politely, and Lu Zheng tried his best to treat her. She couldn't just leave.

At noon, upon hearing Lu Zheng's return, Meng Wanwan hurriedly walked out of the room.

Xiaoxiao helped her, "Miss, please slow down!"

Although Meng Wanwan could not see her, she had been following the standard of etiquette since she was a child, and her temperament was extremely calm. When Lu Zheng saw her anxious expression, he felt something was wrong.

She took a few steps forward and raised her hand to pick her up.

"Beware of the threshold."

Meng Wanwan grabbed Lu Zheng's wrist and said, "Miss Lu hasn't been home for a few days. I was very worried, but she came back safe and sound?"

"I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm fine. I just went to see someone."

Meng Wanwan pressed her hand slightly and said, "My uncle arrived in the capital yesterday and came to see me in the evening."

Xiao Qi and Xiao Fuzi looked at each other. King Linjiang came to Beijing?

"My uncle brought many gifts to the prince and Miss Lu. My grandfather personally selected them. Why don't you let me choose and see if you like them all?"

Lu Zheng was slightly frightened. She could sense that Meng Wanwan was anxious and scared at the same time. Before Xiao Qi refused, Lu Zheng smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll take a closer look at what treasures they are."

With that said, she held Meng Wanwan's hand with one hand and grabbed Xiao Qi's wrist with the other and took him away directly.

Xiao Fuzi, who was about to follow, unexpectedly saw Xiaoxiao's figure at the door. He looked at Xiaoxiao in surprise, wondering what she meant.

Xiaoxiao said with a smile: "Don't be surprised, father-in-law. My young lady never likes to have too many people in the room. Let's just wait outside and wait for the master to call us. Can we go in again?"

Even if the door is blocked, can he still say no?

Xiao Fuzi chuckled, looked at Huasui and the other servants who were still in a daze, and told them what to do, and everyone hurriedly dispersed.

Huasui glanced at Xiaoxiao and then went to prepare clothes for Lu Zheng.

In the room, Meng Wanwan took the two of them to the innermost room. After confirming that no one was around, she grabbed Lu Zheng's wrist. Her voice was urgent.

"Your Majesty and Miss Lu, please leave the capital as soon as possible and avoid people for a while!"
