Chapter 1098: Yunlan Zicao (2)
"Ask the left and right neighbors." Right Prime Minister said.

The Prince of England nodded.

Marquis Yongkang went to the neighbor's door and knocked.

Someone poked his head out from inside and saw a few people wearing official uniforms. He knew they were senior officials and hurriedly greeted them.

"Let me ask you, why is the mansion of Xie's salt warehouse closed? Where are the people? Where did they go?" Yongkanghou asked.

The man hurriedly said, "Since Mr. Yun Ji disappeared and disappeared, people from all over Xie's salt warehouse have been dispatched to look for it. Only the janitor was left. A month ago, something happened to the janitor's house, so he quickly locked it. I left the door and went back to my hometown. I haven’t come back yet.”

Upon hearing this, Marquis Yongkang turned his head to look at Prince Ying and the others.

The Prince of England waved his hand, "Go and see Xie's sixth room."

Several people nodded and walked towards Xie's sixth room.

When he came to Xie's sixth room, Prime Minister Zuo couldn't wait to knock on the door.

A concierge opened the door, and was startled when he saw a few people, and hurriedly saluted.

Prime Minister Zuo waved his hand, "Are your master and wife here?"

The concierge nodded, "Master and Madam are here."

Prime Minister Zuo breathed a sigh of relief and was overjoyed, "Quickly go and report that we want to see your master and wife."

The porter responded, and ran into the courtyard.

Not long after, everyone in Xie's Sixth House was alarmed, the old lady, master, and Mrs. Ming from Xie's Sixth House all came out, and the group of people was overwhelming.

The old lady of Xie's sixth room and Concubine Lin in the palace handed handkerchiefs. Although there is no rank, the seniority is here.

In front of her, the Prince of England, the Prime Minister of the Left and the Right, and the Marquis of Yongkang were all considered juniors. Seeing that she came out to greet her, they hurried forward to salute her.

The old lady of the sixth room waved her hand, expressing her reluctance, and then asked the Prince Ying, "My lord, what happened to our mansion? Why are you all here?"

The Prince of England shook his head again and again, "Don't worry, old lady, it's not an important matter in the mansion, it's an important matter in the court. The prince and the others came here to ask for something important."

The Prince of England said a word of begging, and the old lady of Liufang was startled, and quickly looked at her son and daughter-in-law.

Because of his weak body and bones, the sixth master has never been on duty in Yingmao to take care of some properties in the mansion, but he is not stupid. On the contrary, the people of the Xie family are extremely smart. Marquis, please enter the residence first."

The Prince of England and others knew that the doorway was not a place to talk, so they all nodded.

A group of people entered the mansion.

Came to the living room, served the tea and fruit plate, and dismissed the servants, leaving only the old lady of Liufang, the master of Liu, and Mrs. Ming.

The Prince of England took the lead in explaining the purpose of his visit, and asked if there was black comfrey in the mansion.

"It turns out that the prince came here for this matter." Although the old lady of the sixth room was old, she was not confused, and waved her hands, "Half an hour ago, the concubine in the palace sent me a letter, that is, Ask about the black comfrey. I learned later that something happened in Lin'an City and the black comfrey is needed. But there has been no black comfrey in our mansion."

"The concubine actually sent you a letter earlier?" Prince Ying was taken aback.

"The concubine is also for the eighth prince. Since the prince left, the eighth prince has been in charge of the country. After all, the eighth prince is young. After such a big event, it has been messed up for a while. The black comfrey can't be found inside or outside the capital. Thinking of coming to ask if there is any black comfrey in my mansion." said the old lady of the sixth room.

"Old lady, the sixth house of the Xie family is not too big or small for the entire Xie family. According to the truth, every mansion of the Xie family has a private treasury, especially the sixth master in your mansion who is weak and sick all the year round. It stands to reason that The medicinal materials are even more complete. Why has there been no black comfrey all this time?" Zuo Xiang stared at the old lady of Liufang and asked.

The six-room old lady looked at the left minister, hesitated, "This..."

"Old lady, is there something hidden here?" Yongkanghou asked.

The Prince of England and Prime Minister Right also looked at the old lady of Liufang.

The six-bedroom old lady looked at her son and daughter-in-law.

The sixth master and Mrs. Ming also had some troubles, it seemed that there was something really hard to say.

The Prince of England looked at the three of them and said, "Old Madam, Sixth Master, Sixth Madam, you must know about the plague in Lin'an City. The prince was also infected with the plague in Lin'an City a few days ago. Currently, 10,000+ people in Lin'an City are waiting for the black people The comfrey was treated. However, the black comfrey in a radius of [-] li in Lin'an City was looted. The news spread to Beijing, and the emperor issued an order today. All the pharmacies and mansions in Beijing, as long as there are black comfrey, I rushed to rescue the emergency. But I searched all over the capital, and there was no black comfrey, not even a single plant. I waited until I thought of coming to your mansion, thinking that the dignified Xie family must have black comfrey."

"Yes, if there is no black comfrey, not only the prince's life will be lost, but the lives of 10,000+ people in Lin'an City will be lost. Lin'an City will be destroyed. What's more, Lord Xie Hou of the Zhongyonghou Mansion is on the way to Mobei. He was stopped by the heavy rain in Lin'an City, just happened to catch up with the plague, and now he is also in Lin'an City." Right Prime Minister said, "The sixth house of Xie's family and the residence of Zhongyonghou are the closest residences, even if something happened to the crown prince, I don't want to thank the Marquis Something is wrong, Grandpa."

The old lady of Liufang heard the words and looked to the left and right. The sixth master and Mrs. Ming glanced at each other and nodded to the old lady. The old lady just said, "It's not that I don't want to say it. There are indeed some secrets here. But since it is related to Naturally, the safety of the crown prince and Lord Xie don't care about that much."

The Prince of England and the others pricked up their ears to listen.

The old lady of Liufang said, "Although the prince and the two ministers and Lord Hou have been in the capital all the time, they may be busy with important affairs and know some things well, but they may just be ignorant of some things. Mr. Yunlan of Xie's Rice Grain, There have always been hidden and strange diseases. As long as the entire Xie family has black comfrey, it will be sent to Mr. Yunlan's mansion every year, and his illness needs black comfrey."

The Prince of England and others were taken aback when they heard this.

The right ministers said in unison, "There is such a thing, why have I never heard of it?"

Mrs. Ming took over the words and said, "I just said that the prince, Xiangye, and Hou Ye have always been in charge of important affairs in the court, so naturally they don't pay attention to some small things. What's more, although Mr. Yunlan is talented, but because of his poor health Hidden illnesses have always been low-key, and in addition, they left the capital three years ago to recuperate in Pingyang City. In the past three years, they have faded out of the capital. What's more, for us Xie family, things like hidden illnesses and strange diseases are naturally hidden. It's not a good thing, and naturally it won't make it known to the world. Therefore, it is not surprising that the prince, the two ministers, and the Marquis don't know about it."

"To be honest, the emperor has been paying attention to Xie's movements these years. The entire Xie family gave Xie's rice grains with the black comfrey, but this king has never heard of it. .” Prince Ying said.

Mrs. Ming laughed immediately, "The emperor, the prince, and all the adults in the court are all looking at the meridians of the Jiangshan regime. As for the medicinal materials, if there is not such a life-threatening event as Lin'an City, the black comfrey is just a trivial matter. That's all."

"That makes sense!" Prime Minister Right nodded.

The Prince of England heard this and said, "So, the entire Xie clan doesn't necessarily have black comfrey?"

"Now is not the season for black comfrey to grow. In previous years, after the black comfrey matured, in the best season, as long as our government received the black comfrey from the industry, it would be given to Mr. Yunlan immediately while it was fresh. He has a special preservation method for his own illness, which can make the black comfrey have the best medicinal effect." Mrs. Ming said, "So, except for Mr. Yunlan, there is no black comfrey in the entire Xie family. .”

The Prince of England looked at the Prime Minister on the left and the Marquis of Yongkang, and the four of them were in love with each other.

After a while, Prince Ying said sadly, "Mr. Yunlan has been missing since he went to Liyun Nunnery. He is nowhere to be found. What should we do now!"

Zuo Xiang anxiously asked Mrs. Ming, "Madam, where do you send the black comfrey to Xie Yunlan every year?"

"It used to be sent to her mansion, but later it was sent to Pingyang City." Mrs. Ming thought for a while and said, "Mr. He disappeared, but Zhao Ke is probably still in Pingyang City. If we go to Pingyang City to look for Zhao Ke, maybe we can get the black comfrey."

Zuo Xiang stood up vigorously, "It's not too late, Wang Ye, Right Xiang, Hou Ye, let's go quickly."

Prince Ying also stood up, frowning, "How many of us are going to Pingyang City?"

"Go to the palace first to find the emperor! Let the emperor send someone to Pingyang City." Zuo Xiang said.

The Prime Minister immediately said, "We must not let the wind leak out. If we go to the palace to look for the emperor, maybe others will get the news. Even the black comfrey in the imperial pharmacy of the palace is gone. It is conceivable that the people behind it have a hateful heart."

"Then what do you say?" Prime Minister Right said anxiously, "No matter what, it's important to save the crown prince first."

"My lord, when will my little lord return home?" You Xiangying asked Prince Ying.

The Prince of England shook his head, "How do you know."

"It's best to find the little prince Zheng as soon as possible. It's best to let the little prince Zheng take action. At present, I'm afraid Zhao Kechu is the only place with black comfrey. If others go, they may not be able to get the black comfrey. Comfrey. What’s more, there are people behind it. If it’s robbed, ordinary people go, how can they rob it?” Right Prime Minister said.

Prince Ying nodded, "That's right. Let's go to my mansion first and see if the princess can find him. Since what happened to him back then, he almost lost his life in the mass grave. After returning, the princess is in the He has a special incense planted on his body, and she raised a bird, and in an emergency, the bird can find him by looking for the incense. This is the only way I have to use it, after all, the matter in Lin'an City is extremely urgent."
