Chapter 291: No matter who these people are loyal to, we will find out.
Shen Yunyue laughed out loud when she heard this. She found that this He Niang had a very good temper.
It really suits Ningyuan.
Shen Yunyue was writing the prescription while chatting with He Niang.
During the chat, I learned that He Niang was from the next county.
The village borders Shihan County.
Besides my parents, there are several younger siblings in my family.
When she said this, her eyes turned red and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief. She said worriedly:
“My parents are honest and hardworking, but the land where we live is barren.
All we can grow are worthless coarse grains, and even with the harvest, after paying taxes, there's not much left."
"If we don't sell our children, the other children won't be able to survive."
He Niang wanted to sell herself so that her family could survive.
When Shen Yunyue heard He Niang talking about her hometown, she knew that there might not be many of her family members left alive.
I vaguely remember that there was that place for people who came to work at home.
It is said that there was a flood two years ago, and before the people could even catch their breath, they were faced with a 10% tax increase.
There are many people who eat their own children.
Last year we encountered another disaster.
Hasn’t He Niang heard of this?
Shen Yunyue pretended to ask casually, "You haven't seen your family in the past few years?"
He Niang shook her head when she heard this.
"The mistress of the master's house saw that I was clever, so she asked me and two of the older maids to go north to look after the eldest young master. Later, the eldest young master got married, and the young mistress sent the three of us back."
"I only arrived in Shihan County after the Spring Festival this year, and haven't had time to ask anyone to look for my parents yet."
He Niang pursed her lips and smiled faintly:
"But my parents asked my uncle to write to me, and I send my own money back every six months."
Ning Yuan also heard something wrong.
He comforted He Niang:
"I'll ask someone to look for my father-in-law and mother-in-law tomorrow."
Shen Yunyue took over the conversation, "No need to ask for help. We have people there, and that place is also around Cangjiang River."
He Niang hurriedly bowed deeply to Shen Yunyue.
"Young Madam, I have nothing to offer you in return. If you need me to do anything in the future, please let me know. I am willing to be your servant."
Shen Yunyue naturally would not let her be a servant.
"You are from Yunjiazhuang, and you are Uncle Yuan's wife. There is no need to be polite, as long as you are wholeheartedly for Uncle Yuan." Shen Yunyue took out a box from her sleeve.
Inside was a silver hairpin, "This is for you."
He Niang knew that it was common for the master to give rewards.
However, this was the first time I saw someone as young as Shen Yunyue being rewarded.
She was cured of her illness and given a reward.
I feel uneasy holding it.
"Young Madam, this is impossible. You haven't even received payment for treating me?" She anxiously tugged at Ning Yuan's sleeve, "Brother Yuan, we can't take it."
Ning Yuan did not refuse and said softly:
"This is the reward from the young lady. Please accept it."
Ning Yuan finished speaking and asked He Niang to make a pot of tea and bring over some wild fruits from the kitchen.
He sat down below Shen Yunyue.
"Madam, the Nanshanhong tea leaves have all been roasted. They still have a spicy flavor if you drink them now. I estimate they will be annealed in another month. Half of them have already been sent to the Yunheng Palace warehouse."
Ning Yuan is responsible for all the tea grown by Shen Yunyue in Taiping Mountain.
"Should the remaining tea be sent to Yunheng Palace or kept for now?"
Shen Yunyue thought about it.
After a while, he slowly said:
"Leave twenty pounds to be sent to Baijia Village, and leave ten pounds here in Yunjiazhuang for my great uncle and my seventh uncle. Send the rest to the warehouse at Yunheng Palace."
"good."
Ning Yuan also told Shen Yunyue that a group of tea trees had been discovered nearby.
The tea maker said that batch was suitable for making old tea.
"I asked the tea maker to make more than thirty kilograms of tea. When He Niang is done, you can try it."
While talking.
He Niang has already sent it over.
Shen Yunyue picked up the teacup, smelled it, took another sip and kept it in her mouth for a few breaths.
"Well, Taiping Mountain is indeed a great place. This old tea is even more flavorful than the tea from Fujian. Since you discovered it, why don't you make the tea and sell it to us at Yunheng Teahouse?"
Ning Yuan thought he had heard wrongly.
"How can this be sold to Yunheng Teahouse?"
"Uncle Yuan, this is what you found. I don't have the face to say that it's mine just because it's near me." Shen Yunyue couldn't help but smile.
…….
Fu Xuanheng and Master Yun were talking in the room.
After all, it's because I'm getting older, and I've been eroded by toxins over the years.
Master Yun is still rather weak.
Sitting on a chair in the room, a thick quilt covering his legs.
With trembling hands, he picked up the mung bean cake from the plate beside him and sighed:
"I'm old. My health isn't very good. I have to eat something every hour. Otherwise, I always feel anxious, short of breath, and break out in cold sweats."
Fu Xuanheng lowered his eyes upon hearing this.
"I'll ask Yunyue to come over and take your pulse."
Master Yun waved his hands quickly, "This is an old age disease. How many years has your grandmother been dead?
The Emperor... In the palace, there are many doctors who take care of his body, so naturally, his health is different."
Fu Xuanheng hurriedly told Master Yun about the emperor's trip south.
Master Yun was so angry that he couldn't stop shaking. He looked at Fu Xuanheng with a stern face. "Why don't you kill him?"
"I..." Fu Xuanheng hesitated.
"Then why let him live in your house?" Old Master Yun flicked his sleeves, and the teacup on the table fell to the ground.
Someone asked from outside:
"Old man."
"Get out!" Master Yun shouted. "Everyone, get out of this yard."
"Yes." The person who was talking outside left.
Old Master Yun stared at Fu Xuanheng with disappointed eyes, "I know you can't bear to let him go. After all, you are his grandson, but you also have the blood of our Yun family.
Your father is also the grandson of the Yun family, you... Oh, never mind. Go back."
There was a hint of emotion on Fu Xuanheng's expressionless face.
"Uncle, I didn't recognize him at first. He appeared next to us in disguise, and then he realized something was wrong and wanted to take action.
But you also know that our current strength does not allow it. Without absolute military power, if the Great Zhou is controlled by those with ulterior motives, I am afraid... "
He said nothing more.
But Master Yun understood.
Sighed:
"It's all fate. He has a disguise expert by his side, and it's hard to tell if his disguise is real or fake. From now on, you guys have to be careful."
"Yes." Fu Xuanheng lowered his eyes.
It was indeed amazing that even people who had frequently entered the palace for several years did not recognize him.
Master Yun then mentioned that he should go find that army. "Now that you have the jade pendant, you have to give it a try no matter what."
He analyzed the situation with Fu Xuanheng for a long and earnest moment.
Fu Xuanheng was also moved by what he said.
I was originally going to ask about the things in the secret room in Taiping Mountain, but was interrupted by Master Yun.
Fu Xuanheng actually forgot.
"Right now, the northern border is guarded by the Great Protector General Chang Wei. But you're also right. I wonder if Chang Wei is loyal to the current emperor or to the person holding the jade pendant?"
"Speaking of which, the former great general was Chang Wei's grandfather, Chang Luhu."
Fu Xuanheng was persuaded.
He made up his mind, "Uncle, I have decided to go to the North in a while. No matter who these people are loyal to, I will go and find out."
Master Yun looked very pleased.
Clapping his hands and laughing:
"Okay, okay. That's great."
He closed his eyes after he finished speaking, "I'm tired, let's talk later if there's anything."
"Then you should go to bed early." Fu Xuanheng said and left the house.
After walking a short distance, I realized that I hadn't asked the question I wanted to ask. Then I thought that it wasn't too urgent, so I went to find Shen Yunyue.
The two returned directly to Baijia Village from Yunjiazhuang.
On the way.
Fu Xuanheng told Shen Yunyue the content of his conversation.
"My uncle said he doesn't want us to take any risks and has forgotten the hatred." Fu Xuanheng looked at the moon in the distance and said calmly:
"Actually, I understand him very well. How can one truly forget the tragedy of annihilating their entire family?"
Shen Yunyue also agreed deeply. If it was just a simple revenge, she could use the space and Fu Xuanheng to break into the palace.
But what they want is this country.
It is definitely not as simple as killing the emperor, they have to make careful arrangements.
I don't want to make wedding dresses for others.
The people sent to investigate the sacrifice of young boys and girls have returned.
"Young Madam." The person who came was a person who specialized in gathering information, and he had a thin figure.
When walking, there is almost no sound.
"What did you find out?" Shen Yunyue put down the herbs in her hand. She had been researching various herbs since early this morning.
Let Xiaojiu suffer as little as possible.
The man's name was Shadow, and he saluted with his hands clasped together.
Then he stood aside and told Shen Yunyue what happened.
This was indeed Li Jia's idea to evade responsibility, and Qiu Zhiying also strongly agreed with this.
The sorcerer Qian Bunen and the magistrate of Shihan County pushed this matter forward for money.
"I have already controlled Qian Bu Ni. He thought he was poisoned and would die. He will definitely listen to us this time." Shadow only used a small trick.
Qian Bu Ni was already scared to death.
It's also a useless thing.
"You do it this way..." Shen Yunyue's eyes turned and she thought of an idea, then whispered it to Yingzi.
"Remember, Qian Bunun must cooperate in this matter." Shen Yunyue's eyes were full of sarcasm, since several people in Shihan County wanted to become famous in one fell swoop.
She fulfilled their wish.
"Is this okay?" Shadow looked at Shen Yunyue's confident look, but still had some doubts.
"Don't worry. Nothing I say will fail."
Shen Yunyue wants to use the theory of divine punishment to catch Prince Rui and the magistrate of Shihan County in one fell swoop.
They wanted to let the world know their cruelty. They had no ability to control the flood, so they thought of sacrificing young boys and girls to the river god. The river god hated the use of living people for sacrifice, so he warned Prince Rui and others.
There are so many potions in her space.
Just taking out some of them is enough to make Shadow go over and cause trouble.
Yingzi agreed, and Shen Yunyue then instructed Yingzi to go to the next town to look for He Niang's family.
I heard about the village where He Niang lives.
Shadow looked embarrassed. "Young Madam, let me tell you first, there are only a few dozen people left in that village. They have all settled in the neighboring village. No one lives in the previous village anymore."
It was just as Shen Yunyue thought.
"Then you should go look for them too. Maybe someone is still alive."
"Yes." Shadow said and left.
