Chapter 116 Do you remember what I said?

"Mother is right. Your family used to be dependent on the Xu family, but now that the Xu family is in trouble, they don't even bother to pretend anymore."

Not a single copper coin has been delivered! What's wrong with asking you to push my mother now?

"A bunch of ingrates! My brother must have been blind to marry a haggard woman like you!"

Since her family members didn't come, Wu Lianzhen felt truly guilty and her face immediately turned red.

Yang Cuihe shook her head helplessly as she watched this scene.

“Wu Lianzhen did give birth to a son for the Xu family, they’ve gone too far.”

After saying that, she subconsciously looked at Xu Qingyi and the others.

"Please don't be offended, Madam Yun. I meant them. Oh, my mouth!"

Yang Cuihe was somewhat annoyed, while Xu Qingyi smiled and shook her head.

"Madam Wei, there's no need to worry. The wicked will be punished by the wicked. I just wonder if An County has been affected by the plague."

If they continue this torture, there will probably be another disturbance in An County.

Xu Qingyi's biggest worry was that they would cause trouble again and affect the progress of their trip to Jiangnan.

As it turns out, Xu Qingyi's concerns were not unfounded.

They arrived in An County just after sunset, and at that time, An County was eerily quiet.

"Boss, can we skip An County? Something seems off there!"

Luo Hao felt something was off, so he moved from the back of the line to the front.

"How will you explain to the prefect of Shanzhou that you didn't get the seal from the magistrate of Anxian County when you arrive in Shanzhou?"

Luo Qing glanced at him.

"How about this, we set up camp outside first and go inside early tomorrow morning?"

Although Anxian is called a county seat, it is actually not as prosperous as a small town.

It's just that it's close to Yangguan County, where the cost of living is high, so more and more people are settling here.

For ease of administration, this place was designated as An County and a county government was established to govern it.

Therefore, An County did not even have city walls, so there was naturally no such thing as city gate guards.

"Okay, let's talk about it tomorrow."

They were originally planning to go in and find an inn, but now, nobody dares to go in.

County government office.

The officials hurried into the yamen, and Magistrate Yuan Hongyang, pinching his brow, asked, "How is it?"

"My lord, we have persuaded the people to go home, but if there is no medicine for sale in the city tomorrow, I'm afraid the people will no longer believe us!"

"What else can we do? The people we sent out haven't returned yet, and no one from above has been sent down."

There's only so much medicine left. If we let it out, who will get enough? Wouldn't that cause a fight?

Yuan Hongyang was about to complete his three-year term as magistrate of An County, and he could have left peacefully in a little over a month.

Who would have thought that a sudden flood would occur so early in the spring!

Before the plague even reached An County, panic had already set in!

"It's all the fault of that family in the west of the city! They're just merchants, why did they have to bring news of the plague along with them!"

"My lord, I have also heard some news. I heard that Princess Jinglan, who was exiled, became a disciple of Medicine King Valley at the age of five."

"Didn't we just arrive at a group of exiles today? There was a young girl among them. Do you think she might be Princess Jinglan?"

"Didn't the advisor just return from the capital? He might have met that young monarch. Quickly, let the advisor come and meet that little girl!"

Upon hearing his subordinates' words, Yuan Hongyang immediately ordered the officials to search for the person.

Inn.

Ling Ruofeng paced back and forth in the room, extremely anxious.

"Father, please stop shaking me, it's hurting my eyes..."

Ling Xuerou has been thinking about it for more than half a month, but she still can't figure out where the accident happened.

In her previous life, the fact that Marquis Dingyuan was involved in the sale of smuggled salt was never exposed until her death.

How come, right after she was reborn, he was not only reported to the Prefect of the Capital, but the Marquis of Dingyuan's mansion was also emptied out!

What's even more unexpected is that after her rebirth, she was exiled!

Could it be that there are other reborn individuals besides her?

Moreover, he is a reborn person who has a grudge against the Marquis of Dingyuan's family!

Along her journey, all the way to An County, she had already compiled a list of people who might be enemies of Marquis Dingyuan.

Yun Zhao was ruled out first.

If Yun Zhao were a reborn person, she would know that Prince Jin would be exiled, and she certainly wouldn't take the initiative to return to Prince Jin's mansion.

Moreover, she was the murderer who killed Yun Zhao.

Having been reborn, Yun Zhao would not let her off so easily.

Could it be Wei Junyan?

But if it really is him, the first thing he would do after being reborn would definitely be to take up a knife and kill her to avenge Yun Zhao!

No matter how she calculated it, she couldn't figure out who it was!

"Husband, didn't you say there would be arrangements along the way? We're already in An County now."

Besides giving us a second-class room, they didn't even provide us with a carriage!

Lin Shujing felt aggrieved. As the daughter of the Governor of Lizhou, when had she ever suffered such hardship?

Ling Ruofeng glared at her fiercely.

"What are you still concerned about regarding the carriage? Didn't you hear what the officials said today? There's a plague in Jiangnan..."

The news has already reached Yangguan County, and now the entire An County is in a state of panic.

We haven't been able to contact the King of Yue yet. If something really happens, we won't even have any medicine!

Ling Xuerou suddenly stood up and asked in surprise, "What? Father?"

Where did the news come from? How did the plague in Jiangnan spread to Yangguan County?

"It should be true. Before the sun had even set today, a curfew had already been imposed in the county town because the people were panicking and looting pharmacies and grain and oil shops."

Now it was Ling Xuerou's turn to pace anxiously.

At this time in my previous life, the Governor-General of Jiangnan invited Pei Jishi of Medicine King Valley to come down the mountain.

After the disease spread to several prefectures, a prescription was finally developed.

However, in her memory, Yangguan County, which was under the jurisdiction of Yang Jingyan, was not among them.

Yang Jingyan later rose to the position of Dali Temple official and even demanded a retrial of the Prince of Jin's corruption case.

Therefore, she offended the emperor, and at that time, her father, Marquis Dingyuan, personally supervised her execution.

The plague in Jiangnan had a huge impact, and all the officials involved were demoted.

She was certain that Yang Jingyan was not among them.

What exactly went wrong?

She was also thinking that once she arrived in Jiangnan, she must find Pei Jishi in advance.

With her twenty years of experience, Pei Jishi would surely be impressed by her intelligence and take her as his apprentice!

She wanted to see how Yun Zhao would remain the world's number one female doctor fourteen years from now, with her as his last disciple!

Seeing her daughter pacing excitedly, Lin Shujing quickly grabbed her husband's sleeve.

"Husband, please don't do this, you're frightening Xue'er!"

Ling Ruofeng looked at his daughter, who was pacing anxiously, sometimes frowning and sometimes laughing wildly, as if she had gone mad.

He finally realized that his words had frightened his daughter, and quickly went over to pick her up.

"Good girl, Xue'er. Once your father makes contact with the King of Yue's people, you won't have to walk all the way to Lingnan!"

Ling Xuerou steadied herself and looked at Ling Ruofeng.

“Father, do you remember what your daughter said? Pei Jishi of Medicine King Valley.”

"You mean that dream you had before? But it was just a dream after all."

That day, after Yun Zhao returned to the Prince of Jin's residence, Ling Xue Rou told him that she had a dream.

This includes the future fate of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty.

But the first thing didn't come true.

They didn't wait until spring to go to Huguo Temple to offer incense or make friends with any gentlemen.

Instead, they were exiled as a whole family...

In the end, it's all just kids talking nonsense.
