The plaque fell to the ground, and the noisy exclamations around it dissipated, leaving the scene in dead silence.
Chen Qi looked at the intact plaque on the ground and swallowed.
This plaque is really solidly made.
He thought to himself.
This is really scary. Without any warning, the Jinyiwei came to smash their plaques.
This is destroying the store.
They in Jiulingtang are neither officials nor dignitaries. They are not corrupt and have not committed crimes. So why did the hard-working Jinyiwei come to their door?
Moreover, it was Lu Qianhu, who rarely shows up, who came in person.
Can this be called an honor?
Could it be that something went wrong the last time the Royal Guards brought people here to request medical treatment?
This is even more impossible.
Chen Qi could not hide his uneasiness, while Fang Jinxiu had a complicated look in her eyes.
But as the plaque fell to the ground, Miss Jun's heart seemed to fall to the ground as well.
"Master Lu," she said, looking at Lu Yunqi, "what do you mean?"
Lu Yunqi looked down at her from above.
"You know," he said.
She knows? What does she know?
When did she have any dealings with Lu Yunqi?
Is there something between them that you know and I know that they don't know?
Chen Qi's eyes almost sparkled as he looked at Miss Jun.
Miss Jun's expression returned to calm.
"I'm sorry for what Lord Lu said last time," she said, "I'm sorry I can't do it."
Lu Yunqi looked at her again.
This girl was indeed very courageous, but that was nothing to worry about or be surprised about.
The man who dared to open a pharmacy in the capital, speak such big words, and win over these doctors is certainly not an ordinary person.
"If you can't do it, why didn't you say it at the time?" he said calmly.
"At that time, I didn't dare." Miss Jun said.
At that time, I said that she probably would never be able to leave her house. This is common sense and makes sense.
"You took the money." Lu Yunqi said.
"At that time, I didn't dare not accept it." Miss Jun said, and after thinking for a while, she added, "Later, I didn't dare to return it."
admire.
Hearing this, Chen Qi looked at Miss Jun and gave her a thumbs up in his heart.
It's really admirable that you can make something that doesn't make sense sound so reasonable.
Although Lu Yunqi's words were simply outrageous, through this question and answer, the people around him had a general understanding of the situation.
It seems that Mr. Lu asked Miss Jun to do something and gave her money, but Miss Jun took the money but did not do it.
The people looked at Miss Jun with admiration.
It's amazing that he dared to deal with Lu Qianhu, and he dared not do his job after taking the money, and it makes sense for him to do so.
Lu Yunqi looked at her for a moment, then dismounted.
"You don't dare to do this or that, but you dare to promise and not keep your word, and take the money but don't do the work." He walked over slowly and said slowly, "You are very brave."
Whenever he saw her before, he would approach her as quickly as possible, never this slowly, as if he was about to approach her but also seemed full of disgust, like a beast playing with its prey.
He had a knife hanging from his waist, and even through the scabbard the people seemed to smell the blood.
Watching him move step by step made me feel even more terrified.
It seemed that Lu Qianhu would suddenly attack and kill people in the next moment.
This is not an uncommon occurrence. Lu Qianhu is not a talkative person, so he solves problems manually if they can be solved manually.
Just like they had raised sticks and beat the protesting officials in front of the palace, just like they had set fire to the houses of those who prevented the police from breaking into the door, and just like they had swung knives at the students who held up statues of saints to block the way.
Lu Qianhu stopped in front of Miss Jun. He was tall and thin, blocking the sunlight and casting a shadow over Miss Jun.
"So what do you want to do?" he said.
He was asking a question, but it sounded like a statement, without any emotion, and he didn't care about the other person's answer at all.
It was completely opposite to how I faced myself at the beginning.
She has changed her appearance and her identity, and it turns out that it is not just her who has changed her appearance.
Miss Jun lowered her eyes.
"Jiulingtang is the ancestral property of my Jun family. My grandfather and father are both gone, and I am the only one in the family. In accordance with my grandfather and father's wishes, I must pass on Jiulingtang." She said, kneeling in front of Lu Yunqi, "Please forgive me, sir, for not abandoning the name of Jiulingtang."
So it was Lu Yunqi who wanted Jiulingtang to change its name?
Everyone watching heard the look of surprise and a low murmur of discussion.
Just as Miss Jun knelt down, Fang Jinxiu stepped forward, raised a silver bill and held it up.
It turns out she knew. After all, they are sisters, so she kept this matter a secret from an outsider like me.
Chen Qi thought with some grievance.
Fang Jinxiu stood beside Miss Jun with her head down and the banknotes in her hands, but Lu Yunqi didn't even look at them.
"No." He said bluntly.
Before Miss Jun could say anything, Fang Jinxiu raised her head first.
"Lord Lu, this Jiuling Hall is the ancestral property of the Jun family. Lord Jun has died of loyalty to the country and has left an orphan to inherit the family business. Please take care of it," she said.
Miss Jun's identity and origin became known to the people of the capital as she experienced ups and downs. The Jun family of Jiulingtang in Runan and the magistrate of Funing County were loyal to the country. She was a descendant of a good family who saved the world and the people.
What's more, Miss Jun is now doing good deeds in the capital.
The people around were somewhat agitated.
"Why don't you let them drive?"
"Why do you want to change your name?"
Low voices of discussion echoed all around.
This was a situation that rarely occurred in front of the Golden Guard in the past. After experiencing so many terrifying lessons, no one dared to speak in front of the Golden Guard.
Is this what the people want?
Has the Jiulingtang gained such popularity among the people now?
In just a few months, has the public forgotten their fear and dared to question the Royal Guards?
Chen Qi clenched his fists, suppressing his excitement.
The people’s will, the people’s will, depends on the people.
Lu Yunqi turned his head expressionlessly and glanced at the people beside him.
With just one glance, the discussions and questions here suddenly disappeared.
Before Lu Yunqi could look to the other side, the discussions over there suddenly stopped.
The surroundings fell into dead silence again.
Chen Qi laughed dryly in his heart.
The people of this capital city are really casual.
"Master Lu, Master Lu." Shopkeeper Liu's voice rang out from outside, and soon people came over and saluted Lu Yunqi repeatedly, "Master, Master, Miss Jun is still young, if she has offended you in any way, please forgive me. Please talk to me."
The Jinyi Guards surrounded Jiuling Hall. The two assistants were trapped inside and had no chance to leave. However, Manager Liu rushed over at the first possible moment, which showed that there were people watching over the place on a daily basis.
Chen Qi heaved a sigh of relief again, thinking that with De Sheng Chang stepping in, everything should be fine.
After all, Deshengchang is a family with imperial decree.
Lu Yunqi doesn't care about the people's hearts or the high-ranking officials, but the imperial power must care.
Looking at Shopkeeper Liu, Lu Yunqi took a few steps back.
"There's nothing to say," he said, and after saying this, he took another step forward and stood in front of the plaque on the ground in almost the blink of an eye.
He raised his foot and kicked the plaque hard.
It all happened so suddenly that no one could react. No one even had time to scream when they saw this scene.
But someone else also threw it at the same time.
“You dare!”
Accompanied by the girl's high-pitched shout, the figure ran straight into Lu Yunqi.
Lu Yunqi raised his hands, but Miss Jun pushed his arms with both hands, preventing him from hitting out, but also preventing Lu Yunqi from landing.
Lu Yunqi took a step back and his raised foot landed on the ground, splashing dust.
People standing close seemed to feel the ground shaking.
It can be seen how powerful the kick was. It is conceivable that the plaque would be kicked away and hit the wall, breaking into two pieces.
The people were already frightened by the falling plaque, so there was nothing to be frightened about if it broke again. What frightened them at this moment was which girl dared to wave the Lu Yun flag.
It’s not that no one dared to attack Lu Yunqi. There were people who wanted to attack Lu Yunqi, but those people all ended up in a miserable way.
I'm afraid this girl will be beaten to death on the spot.
There was a stagnation all around.
Lu Yunqi seemed to be frozen. He looked at the hands that were holding his arms, and the words "you dare" were still echoing in his ears.
You dare!
The voice was not familiar, but for some reason he almost lost his soul at that moment, as if someone, a soul, was rushing towards him and hitting him.
The soul that will never be seen again.
