Wan Dugui frowned and said, "So, if it was a homicide, Chang Hai's follower, Chang Wu, would be very suspicious? If he died of natural drowning, where did Chang Wu go? It seems that this case can be solved. If we can’t continue the investigation, we have to find Chang Wu!”

Wang Li said: "Yes, General! My subordinates believe that a large pool of blood found near Bishui Lake should be related to this case, but no relevant clues and evidence have been found, because the nearest residents around Bishui Lake are more than 300 meters away from the lake. step, and no one saw or heard anything at all!"

Wan Dugui said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, a county magistrate died, and now another county magistrate died. Is this general going to die in a few days? Pass on this general's order and issue a document to arrest Chang Wu at sea. We must find him! We must continue to investigate this case and increase manpower to find clues!"

"Yes, General!"

Wan Dugui nodded, and said to the officials: "Before the conclusion of this case is reached, everyone should not discuss it casually, so as not to cause panic to the officials and the people! Well, let's put this case aside for the time being. It is a matter to call you today I want to explain that within two months, you must sort out all the official affairs and official documents that you have acted on your behalf; the officials must be on duty and on duty; After a month, the general will conduct inspections of the various government offices under his jurisdiction, if any problems are found, the general will punish him, do you understand?"

Zhao Junsheng saluted along with other officials, and said loudly: "Understood!"

After taking off duty in the afternoon, Zhao Junsheng first went to check the workshops of the garment factory. He learned that the progress of each workshop was steadily increasing and would soon be on the right track. He then explained some details and precautions to the foremen of each workshop. Then I went back to the garment shop.

Zhao Junsheng discovered that Hua Mulan, who had returned to Huajiabao yesterday afternoon, was giving Hua Hu a massage in the backyard. He walked over to greet Hua Hu and Hua Yuan, and asked Hua Mulan, "Mulan, are you okay at home?"

Hua Mulan smiled and said, "It's okay, there's a steward looking after me, so I came back when I saw nothing happened!"

After Hua Mulan finished speaking, she naturally changed the subject and asked, "By the way, I just heard from the neighbors that Chang Hai, the magistrate of Suiyang County, died. Is this true?"

Zhao Junsheng glanced at Hua Mulan, and found that although she was covering up well, she was still a little unnatural. He said, "Well! There is such a thing, she died in the clear water lake, and was discovered by a student this morning! The general called all the officials who were well-ranked over to discuss the matter. He heard that he had died for two days. It is not known whether he died of natural drowning or was drowned in the water. The police are investigating! There are more , Chang Hai's entourage, Chang Wu, has disappeared, and he has become the object of suspicion by the government!"

Zhao Junsheng's remarks seemed to be casual, but in fact, there was a lot of hidden information, the purpose was to reassure Hua Mulan.In fact, he has been confused about one thing, how did she know that Chang Hai would go to Tianxiang Tower that night?Could it be that she has already investigated Chang Hai's whereabouts a lot, or has she been sending people to investigate Chang Hai's whereabouts?

Hua Mulan was also very puzzled at this time, Chang Wu, Chang Hai's attendant, was obviously killed by her, why the body disappeared?Did Chang Hai roll into the lake and drown himself, or was he held in the water by others and drowned?If Chang Wu's body was taken away, and Chang Hai was drowned in the water, then there was a fourth person present the night before, and this person should already know everything about her.

Hua Mulan suddenly felt shuddering.

At this time, Bao Ding Ma Er went to the backyard and shouted to Zhao Junsheng: "Young master, a military master has come to the prefect's mansion, saying that it is General Wan who invited my uncle to come over!"

Hua Mulan was a little unhappy, and said, "It's all on duty and you're still talking about business? Why don't you talk about it when you're on duty?"

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "When you enter the government office, you can't help yourself! That's all, let's have dinner first."

Eat it, don't wait for me! "

"Wait, I'll get you a piece of cake to take with you on the way to fill your belly!"

After Hua Mulan finished speaking, she ran to the kitchen to get a hot pancake for Zhao Junsheng, and said: "Come back early, don't go out with other officials to fool around!"

Zhao Junsheng found that Hua Mulan was getting more and more into the role of wife, and he was very happy in his heart. He smiled and agreed: "Don't worry!"

After leaving the garment shop, Zhao Junsheng rode his horse to the prefect's mansion, thinking in his heart that he didn't know why Wan Dugui asked him to go there, it seemed that he would not know until he saw Wan Dugui.

Chapter 55 The Legendary Lovesickness

Zhao Junsheng was taken to the back hall of the prefect's mansion. This back hall still belongs to the front yard, but it is not in the office area of ​​the government office.

When he walked into the back hall, Zhao Junsheng saw Wan Dugui wearing a loose robe and kneeling on the chair drinking tea. He couldn't figure out what Wan Dugui couldn't say during the day, so he had to send someone to bring him in at night .

"The humble official pays homage to the general! I don't know what the general's order is for recruiting the humble official late at night?"

Wan Dugui put down the teacup and looked at Zhao Junsheng below and asked, "I heard from the maid Xiaocui that you agreed to teach Tong'er some cutting and sewing skills?"

Zhao Junsheng's heart skipped a beat, Wan Dugui knew about this?He knew that Wan Dugui wanted to marry his daughter to the emperor as a concubine, as long as he had anything to do with Wan Yutong, only God knew what Wan Dugui would do.

He didn't dare to be sloppy in front of Wan Dugui, and admitted: "That day, the young lady found the humble job and said that it was very boring to stay in the boudoir all day long, and she also liked the art of cutting and sewing, so she said that she wanted to learn the art of cutting and sewing from a teacher. I thought that the art of cutting and sewing was not a big deal. If the young lady likes to learn it, I can just teach it in a low-level job. I dare not talk about apprenticeship, so I agreed with the young lady to teach it every three to five days, but for some reason, the young lady kept Never came!"

Wan Dugui was silent for a while, and said: "Tong'er is sick, very sick!"

Zhao Junsheng was taken aback, "What? The young lady talked with the humble officer about learning how to cut and sew for only ten days, so how could you get a lot of soldiers?"

At this time Wan Yutong's maid Xiao Cui came in with an old man carrying a medicine box on his back. Zhao Junsheng saw that the old man was actually Zhang Jingxuan, and quickly saluted, "I met Uncle Zhang, you..."

"Do you know each other? Oh, Doctor Zhang is here to treat Tong'er!" Wan Dugui said something, and asked, "Doctor Zhang, Tong'er..."

Zhang Jingxuan bowed and said: "The old man administered a few injections for the young lady. The young lady has already fallen asleep, and the prescription has been prescribed, but this can only cure the symptoms, not the root cause. If you want to make the young lady recover, you still need heart medicine. To untie the bell, one must tie it!"

Wan Dugui stood up and walked back and forth in the hall with his hands behind his back, stopped and said to Zhang Jingxuan: "Doctor Zhang, please tell Zhao Canjun about Tong'er's illness!"

Zhang Jingxuan bent down to Wan Dugui, turned around and said to Zhao Junsheng: "Miss Wan is thinking in her heart, and her soul is in her dreams. Gradually, she is lazy in eating and drinking, speechless, flickering, sleepy all day long, and looks haggard. , mentally depressed, so afraid of the cold and heat, pain in the bones but not pain, feeling hungry in the abdomen is not discouraged!"

Zhao Junsheng was at a loss when he heard it, and asked with a confused look: "Uncle Zhang, why can't I understand?"

"This is the evil disease of lovesickness!"

Love, the evil disease of lovesickness?The legendary lovesickness?I, Zhao Junsheng, have gained a lot of insight. He had only seen this kind of disease in movies and dramas in his previous life, but he had never encountered it in real life. The thought of "has been deeply rooted in the hearts of young men and women. The world is very big, and there are countless outstanding opposite sexes. No one will hang himself on a tree.

Lovesickness was almost a common disease in ancient times, and the condition ranged from mild to severe, which was caused by the feudal social environment at that time.Zhao Junsheng remembers the lyrics of a song in his previous life that read, "At that time, cars and horses were slow, and there was only enough to love one person in a lifetime." This also shows that it is not easy for young men and women in ancient times to have a hearty love. It is even more difficult to talk about a few love affairs.

The traffic basically depends on walking, the communication basically depends on shouting, the population is small, there are often no people living in hundreds of miles, and the ladies are often locked in the boudoir, and there are not many opportunities to meet young men. In this environment, once the relationship problems change , suffering from lovesickness is not surprising.

Wait, Zhao Junsheng recalled that the object of Wan Yutong's lovesickness must not be him, it can only be Hua Mulan disguised as a man!Well, there is trouble again, and it is a big trouble. If this matter is not resolved, people will die!Gein's lovesickness is a heart disease, and it can't be cured simply by medication.

Wan Dugui said to Zhang Jingxuan: "Miraculous Doctor Zhang, please trouble you! Come here, send Miracle Doctor Zhang off!"

The maid Xiaocui sent Zhang Jingxuan away.

Wan Dugui waved his hand and asked everyone else in the hall to go out, leaving only him and Zhao Junsheng. He walked up to Zhao Junsheng and said, "Zhao Junsheng, do you know why this general asked you to come here?"

Zhao Junsheng pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "The general wants the humble officer to go to Hua Mulan, let him meet with the young lady, and persuade the young lady?"

"You are indeed a smart young man. The general didn't say anything, so you guessed it!" Wan Dugui nodded, and then sighed: "This general only has such a daughter, she is very precious, what if She has something to do, how can this general live? I wanted to send someone directly to Huajiabao to find him, but you also know that last time the incident almost caused him and more than 20 people in Huajiabao to be interrogated. If you are dissatisfied with this general or still harbor resentment, if this general sends someone to invite him, he may not be willing to cooperate. I heard that you are as close to him as brothers, so this general wants you to come forward to persuade him. I don’t know if you Do you want to?"

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, then cupped his hands and said, "General, you can agree to persuade Hua Mulan, but please show some sincerity! I heard that the last time the government seized 1000 or 1000 horses from Huajiabao and they haven't returned them yet. If the general can return the [-] to [-] horses to Huajiapu, I believe Hua Mulan will agree! The lady is ill, and others can't do anything, but I have full confidence that it can be cured. I just ask the general for some requests. You have to promise, otherwise the disease will not be cured!"

Wan Dugui was worried about his daughter's illness, so he immediately said: "Okay, I promise to return the horses from Huajiabao! As long as Tong'er's illness can be cured, just let me know what you want!"

Zhao Junsheng said: "Miss's illness has a lot to do with her mood, and there are no other requirements for a humble position. As long as the general no longer grounds the mistress, she is allowed to enter and leave the prefect's mansion freely, and she is allowed to do some things to divert her attention and distract her." Energy is enough! For example, let her learn some needlework from Beizhi, or... Beizhi has an idea, why not let her control the garment factory, where most of the women workers, this can let her learn how to control Subordinate, if you get married in the future, you will have the ability and experience to control your husband's family affairs!"

Wan Dugui's eyes lit up when he heard that, he wanted to marry Wan Yutong to the emperor as his concubine, the palace was dangerous and complicated, and the struggle was fierce, how could he survive in the palace if he didn't have certain abilities?Wouldn't it be good for her to learn how to control female workers and manage garment factories now?

Wan Dugui was quite happy, and immediately said: "Okay, this general agrees, this matter is settled like this! But, if you can't cure Tong'er, this general will definitely punish you!"

"Yes, yes, general, don't worry!"

It was really tiring to deal with Wandugui. When Zhao Junsheng returned home, Hua Mulan's family hadn't fallen asleep yet, only her brother-in-law Hua Xiong was asleep.

Mrs. Hua Yuan was massaging Huahu, and Hua Mulan was using a needle to fix the soles of her shoes. When he saw Zhao Junsheng walk in, he stood up and asked, "Why did you come back so soon? What is General Wan looking for you for?"

Zhao Junsheng saluted Hua Hu and Hua Yuan and said, "Uncle and Aunt, you should rest earlier, my nephew has something to say to Mulan!"

The treatment effect during these days was remarkable. Huahu was able to raise his hands in his eyes, and his speech function also recovered a little. He raised his hands and said, "Go, go!"

Hua Mulan followed Zhao Junsheng to his room, and asked, "I see you are so secretive, what's going on?"

Zhao Junsheng took Hua Mulan's hand and sat on the edge of the bed. Hua Mulan blushed and struggled: "Grandpa and Auntie are in the next room, don't, let go!"

Zhao Junsheng put her hands on his face intoxicated, closed his eyes and said, "Mulan, Miss Wan's business is not over yet, now there is even bigger trouble coming!"
