Luzhu used to be a member of Xiangli Mingzhu, and she was very familiar with the servants who served Xiangli Mingzhu. When she asked the people in the stable, she found out that Xiangli Mingzhu had recently gone to Wuji Palace. As for what to do specifically, the people in the stable will naturally not know.

She just needed to tell Yuan Qi the news.

When Yuan Qi found out, he didn't say anything and just let Lu Zhu go down. She knew that she was most likely being targeted by people from the Wuji Palace. Logically speaking, everyone was a peer in the Taoist sect and would help each other when something happened. However, the people from the Wuji Palace didn't seem to want to help each other.

Forget it, if you use the King of Ten Thousand Gus to deal with me, I will naturally not be kind enough to return your Gu worms. Let’s wait and see.

Early the next morning, Yuan Qi sneaked out again, changed his Taoist robes, and went to set up a stall under the big locust tree on Tianshui Street.

Her stall was still there after a while, and Zhang Liu and Mei Zi cleaned it for her every day.

Meizi spoke more fluently: "Why haven't you come for more than half a month? There is a man who comes here every day to wait for you and eat noodles at our noodle stall. Just wait, and he will be here soon."

It's not surprising that someone is looking for her. She has been doing a lot of big things these days, so it's normal for the person to introduce acquaintances to come to her.

"Who is it?" Yuan Qi asked as he sat down.

Mei Zi said: "He is an official. He is not very old. He looks like he is in his thirties. My father didn't dare to ask more, and he didn't want to say anything."

The two chatted about the strange things happening on Tianshui Street during this period.

A caravan passed by Yuan Qi. The goods were transported not by carriages, but by camels. The owner of the caravan was riding on the back of a camel. His hair was tawny and naturally curly, and his skin was very white, with deep eye sockets and a high bridge of nose. , at first glance, he is not from the Central Plains.

Meizi pointed at them and said: "I know they are the Western Regions caravans. Every year, the Western Regions caravans pass through here. The spices and gems they sell are loved by the people of Kyoto."

There were a lot of people in the caravan, with a total of thirty camels in front and behind, and there were a lot of goods on the camels' backs. Many of the people following the caravan moved forward on foot.

Yuan Qi discovered that there were several young women among them who were very beautiful. Among them was a young woman wearing red clothes and covering her face with a veil. She had a graceful figure and looked at Yuan Qi expressionlessly.

Meizi sighed: "This sister in red is so beautiful."

The woman in red seemed to understand what Mei Zi said. She smiled at her, then looked away and walked forward.

Mei Zi explained to Yuan Qi: "This caravan comes to Kyoto every spring and summer. I recognize the sister in red."

Yuan Qi said oh but didn't care.

Not long after, a man in his thirties got off the carriage. When he saw Yuan Qi, he ran over: "Little Tianshi, you are finally out of the stall. I have been waiting for you for seven or eight days!"

When Yuan Qi looked at his appearance, his children's palace was prosperous and his parents' palace was also very rosy. This meant that his parents were alive and he had many children, and he had no evil spirits or debts. He didn't know why he came to her.

Moreover, the other party also looks like he has a prosperous official career. Although his official position is not high at the moment, his future will be unlimited.

"Sir, please take a seat." Yuan Qi pointed to the stool opposite.

Zhu Feiling was still a little anxious, but now that he saw Yuan Qi, he felt much better. He sat down neatly and said: "It's really hard to wait for the little heavenly master. My surname is Zhu, and I am a junior minister of the fourth rank. To be honest with you. He said, "I'm here to ask the Little Heavenly Master to come and see what's going on." Yuan Qi asked, "I wonder what happened to you, sir?"

Zhu Feiling is good at talking and talking: "My son was seven years old. During the Chinese New Year, he went to watch the fireworks. The fireworks piled up were ignited by sparks. A lot of them exploded, injuring several people nearby. , there was also a teenage boy who had his head blown off. My son was so frightened at the time that he started crying. From that day on, my son became a little stupid. He just giggled all day long and didn’t know anything. I didn't even know how to poop or pee when I was eating. The child who was originally quite smart suddenly became like this. I was so worried that I asked doctors everywhere and even invited several imperial doctors to see me, but they couldn't find anything wrong with them. Come."

"My son's mother has been crying all day long, begging me to find a doctor. Now my son's mother is pregnant again. Because of my son's affairs, she can't eat well, can't sleep well, and the fetus is a little unstable. I'm afraid I can't save this pregnancy. If this matter isn't handled well, I might have a second child..."

Yuan Qi curled his lips slightly: "Your Excellency, it is your destiny to have both children and grandchildren, and your wife's pregnancy will be safe."

Zhu Feiling beamed: "By the Heavenly Master's auspicious words, if my wife gives birth safely, I will definitely come to you to fulfill my wish."

Yuan Qi chuckled: "You can go to Fusang Temple if you wish, you don't need to come to my place."

Zhu Feiling chuckled and continued: "A few days ago, Lord Qian found his only son who had been lost for many years. My father went to congratulate him. Lord Qian mentioned you to my father, Lord Qian. Lord Qian asked me to ask you for help. My son, maybe he can be cured. As long as my son can be cured, the money will be easy to come by."

"Then let's leave now?"

Yuan Qi packed her things and followed Zhu Feiling to the car. In the car, she asked how Mr. Qian's son was doing.

Zhu Feiling sighed: "The only son of Mr. Qian has some impressions of the plants and trees of the Qian family, but he has no impression of the people. Mr. Qian also consulted the imperial doctor and said that he was lucky that Mr. Qian was not stupid after being hit on the head. , As for when he can remember the past, the imperial doctor can't tell. It's probably too long and he can't recover. But Mr. Qian doesn't care too much. If he can't recover, he can't recover. His left and right sons have already He's found it back, he's not crazy or stupid, and he's still willing to study, so he's satisfied."

"That's not bad."

Not long after, Zhu Mansion arrived.

Zhu Feiling personally took Yuan Qi inside.

"Because my son is a little stupid and my wife is not confident about the servants, so my son will be taken care of by my wife personally. The little Celestial Master will follow me."

Yuan Qi followed Zhu Feiling into the back house and came to a spacious, bright and elegant yard.

A beautiful lady held a seven or eight-year-old boy in her arms and patiently fed him water.

The boy has a fair face and dull eyes, like a puppet, and occasionally smiles foolishly.

Zhu Feiling sighed, pulled his son from his wife's arms, put down the tea cup, and introduced to Yuan Qi: "This is my son Huiquan. You see he has been like this for more than five months."

He then introduced to his wife Cao: "This is the Little Celestial Master that Lord Qian said. His Taoist name is Yuan Qi, and he is the seventh lady of the Jiang family."

Yuan Qi's eyes lit up: "How do you know?"

Zhu Feiling: "Master Qian said that you were not willing to say that you were the seventh lady of the Jiang family, so he didn't mention it, but he knew that he wouldn't let me go to the Jiang family to find you, so he only asked me to wait at your stall. .Do you think what’s happening to my son?”

Yuan Qi could tell at a glance that the child had lost his soul. (End of chapter)
