Ling Moxiao did not tell Shen Dongsu about Chen Xingzhen's stay in the North District for the time being. There were too many people waiting around her, so it was easy for the news to leak out.

He imprisoned Chen Xingzhen in a residence in the North District. If the queen did not use the demon moth to let Dong Su manage the epidemic with peace of mind, Chen Xingzhen would be of no use.

As long as the queen and the prince dare to act recklessly, he will immediately send Chen Xingzhen to the restricted area to see if the queen will bet the life of her direct nephew!

At the same time, news of the plague in Chang'an City had quietly spread, and the Lu family in Jiangnan was the first to get the news.

Mo Xiujin naturally knew it. During this period, Mo Xiujin was investigating the slave smuggling case and punishing the Luo family.

In the eyes of the Luo family, he should be the villain in the drama! The Luo family knew him, so he never showed up in front of the Luo family from beginning to end.

But he had plenty of ways to bring down the Luo family. Mr. Lu’s case could easily be replicated. The Luo family fell in love with men who entered brothels and soon contracted the disease.

The third brother of the Lu family was driven back to Jiangnan because of the death of Hua Liu, the third master of the Lu family. The Luo family members were infected with the same disease as Mr. Lu.

Mo Xiujin gave Mr. Lu two pieces of news. One was that the source of Mr. Lu's infection with Hualiu disease was a woman sent by the Luo family.

Second, the concubine who was kicked out of Mr. Lu's inner courtyard was taken into the house by the Luo family.

Mr. Lu was so angry that he lost his head. At the same time, he had great trust in Mo Xiujin. He casually collected evidence and found the daughter of the Luo family among the concubines of the Lu family.

It was Mr. Lu who entered the Lu family together with the overjoyed Luo family. Mr. Lu was looking for an outlet for his anger, but also felt that the Luo family's hand was too long.

Immediately order Mo Xiujin to exclude the Luo family. With Mr. Lu taking the blame, Mo Xiujin became even crazier.

All those in the Luo family who had official status were dismissed from office. Men who were infected with Hualiu naturally died miserably, while those who were not infected were sent to female relatives.

As for the Luo family's business and land, other nobles immediately devoured them without him having to do anything.

He didn't touch the women and children, for A Yuan's sake.

But he went to the prison and met A Yuan's father, and he wanted to ask for A Yuan.

"When you sent your daughter to Lu's house for the wedding, did you know that Mr. Lu was seriously ill?"

Luo's father didn't recognize Mo Xiujin at all. When his second aunt and Mo Xiujin found Jiangnan, he didn't even look at them and let the retainer send them away.

He thought that Mo Xiujin, a disciple of the Lu family, was asking on behalf of the Lu family, so he not only told the truth, but also added fuel to the fire.

"So what if I'm seriously ill? It's a blessing for the Luo family that my daughter from the Luo family can marry into the Lu family!"

"It's a pity that the little girl was useless and the wedding was not done well. Don't worry, the Luo family didn't blame the Lu family at all for the accidental death of the little girl!"

"Please beg Mr. Lu for mercy. Our two families are related by marriage. He can't just die without saving his life!"

Mo Xiujin gritted his teeth, but the anger in his heart still couldn't go away. He was afraid that he would get sick here.

He raised his hand and bit his wrist until he tasted blood in his mouth, then he opened it lightly.

When he turned to smile at Father Luo, there was blood on his teeth and lips, under the dim candlelight of the dungeon.

His face, which was pale due to illness, his wide-open eyes, and his bloody lips made Luo's father feel that he didn't look like a young master, but like a life-seeking ghost from hell.

He was so frightened that he kept retreating and kept mumbling: "The Luo family and the Lu family are in-laws, Mr. Lu can't just die without saving him!"

Mo Xiujin pressed forward step by step, pushed him into a corner, and whispered in his ear: "The Luo family and the Lu family are related by marriage, but Sister Ayuan, her surname is Cai!"

The word "Sister Ayuan" and the word "Cai" made Luo's father look horrified. He was most afraid that the Lu family would know that Luo was a concubine found among the people!

Even now, he didn't recognize Mo Xiujin. He couldn't help but knelt down and kowtowed and begged: "Young Master must not tell Mr. Lu about this matter."

"My little girl did grow up among the people. She has no virtue or talent, and is not worthy of the Lu family. The Lu family can remove its monument and cut off its incense. I, the Luo family, have no objections, no objections!"

"You want a legitimate daughter, don't you? Our Luo family also has a legitimate daughter. I can let her replace Luo in the underworld marriage."

Mo Xiujin felt that he was a madman and it was natural for him to do crazy things.

Now he realizes that he is crazy because he is ill, and more people in this world are crazy because of profit and selfishness.

Luo's father was reluctant to let his legitimate daughter marry the dying Duke Lu, so he specially took Sister Ayuan back to marry her as a concubine.

But now, in prison, the life and future of the legitimate daughter no longer count, for the sake of her in-law relationship with the Lu family.

He would not hesitate to let his living daughter be buried as a martyr and marry in the underworld.

He shouldn't have asked for A Yuan, he should have understood a long time ago that this man is not worthy of being called a father at all!

He was worried that Luo's father would scream here. If the Lu family heard that Luo was a concubine found by the people, and then went to investigate A Yuan's fake death, it would be regretful.

So before leaving, he directly asked the people around him to send Luo's father on his way.

When Luo's father was strangled and about to die, he still stared at him pleadingly, because until his death, Luo's father could not figure out why Lu Jiafei let him die.

Mo Xiujin walked up to his ear and whispered to him quietly: "I'm Mo Xiujin. You won't forget this name, right?"

Luo's father was surprised at first, then saw the resentment and unwillingness of the people, and finally, he could not rest in peace.

Mo Xiujin stepped forward and closed his eyes. What was he unwilling to do? Are you not willing to die in the hands of such a little person?

When you took Sister Ayuan back and drove away your second aunt and him as beggars, did you ever think that one day the 'beggars' you despised would come to take revenge?

They naturally did not expect that just like the nobles in this world, they would rather believe that it is raining red from the sky than believe that one day the people at the bottom will overthrow them.

While punishing the Luo family, Mo Xiujin discovered something unexpectedly. That is, not long ago, the Lu family received the order from the queen.

Several people were sent to Chang'an, and except for a few people who were picked up by the queen's people in advance, the slave ship was still floating on the canal with the ship.

Mo Xiujin is best at peeling off cocoons and extracting threads, finding the origin of events from a thin thread.

He first looked for the place where the slave ship had been. When he saw Minzhou, he was shocked.

Today's Minzhou is synonymous with plague!

Looking at the timeline again, after the queen's people picked up those people, not long after, the plague broke out in Chang'an.

King Ling who was unable to go to Youzhou because of the incident, Dong Su who was forced to go to the North District to control the plague, the Lu family's slave ship parked on the canal...

Mo Xiujin felt that he was about to discover the truth, but the truth was so cruel that even he, who had seen too much dirt and chaos, couldn't believe it.

He risked being discovered by the Lu family and used the hidden stake left by Ling Moxiao to send a secret letter to Chang'an.

While the secret letter was still on its way to Chang'an, the small city of Guangzhou was also discussing the plague in Chang'an.

Before King Ling came to Guangzhou, major events in Chang'an could not be spread to Guangzhou.

Since King Ling returned to his fiefdom, he also married a girl born and raised in Guangzhou as his princess.

The people of the entire Guangzhou City were very proud. In addition, Guangzhou's business was gradually prospering and there were many trading houses, so the news spread faster.

After receiving the news, Shen Linzhong immediately ordered the village roads in Shenjia Village to be sealed, and people from outside the village were strictly prohibited from entering the village.

Chang'an's ten anti-epidemic prohibitions have not yet spread, but when Shen Dongsu left home, he left behind a prohibition specifically to prevent dysentery in summer.

Zhong Yang quickly found it, and Lin Zhong and Grandpa Shen summoned the entire village, including the female workers in Liu Guanjia's workshop, to publicize it three times a day.

At this time, the news about Princess Ling's good medical skills had already spread. Needless to say, Father Shen knew the inside story.

Grandpa Shen was very surprised: "Who did Dong Su say she learned her medical skills from? Did she learn it from me?"

Jiang slandered that her father-in-law's medical skills could not cure people, but they were very effective in treating animals.

Previously, when Dong Su was on duty in Prince Ling's Mansion, she taught her how to eat snacks, and Prince Ling rewarded her with silver and gifts.

Teach the embroiderer to knit a sweater, and Prince Ling's Mansion will reward you with silver and gifts.

At that time, she felt that these noble people had little knowledge, how could they even eat snacks and knit clothes with wool and four bamboo needles so amazingly!

She thought that King Ling had little knowledge because he was in Guangzhou. Now it seems that even the nobles in Chang'an City have little knowledge!

Can the medical skills Dongsu learned from her father be called a miracle doctor?

If she is a miracle doctor, I dare to call her a miracle doctor too!

He couldn't help but sneered: "Didn't Dong Su learn from Brother A? Brother A is the real miracle doctor. Look at your father's legs, he's really good at it."

Shen Linzhong looked at his mother helplessly: "Mom, those legs were made by my sister. Lord A just carried the name for my sister."

Jiang was stunned and turned to look at Grandpa Shen: "Dad, is this what you taught Dong Su?"

Grandpa Shen was equally speechless. This Jiang family has not made any progress at all.

"How can I almost die of illness on the road if I have this ability? Lin Zhong, just tell me directly, who did Dong Su learn his medical skills from?"

Zhongyang was still a liar and answered for his eldest brother: "My sister was a doctor who was passing by when she was a child."

"If you think about it carefully, you will realize that there was a time when my sister always stole food from the house and went out. She was scolded by her mother and beaten by her grandma."

"It was the old miracle doctor who came to live with us. My sister received food relief, so the old miracle doctor accepted my sister as his apprentice."

"Do you remember it? No matter who asks, they always say so."

Ms. Jiang was still confused: "I remember she took food from home, wasn't it for the person named Feng?"

Father Shen made the final decision: "It's for the old miracle doctor! I also know about this."

Ms. Jiang still felt a little aggrieved: "You all know this, so you just kept it from me!"

Father Shen looked at her helplessly. His wife was soft-tempered and didn't speak carefully, so she was saving face.

Recently, I was actually encouraged by the villagers. I came back every day and said that I wanted to move to Chang'an City with my family. It makes no sense that the daughter has become a princess and the family is still living in a small county town.

Fortunately, these words did not spread outside. Otherwise, if someone provoked her, the princess would have a reputation of being unfilial.

Father Shen had no choice but to prevent her from entering the county town, for fear that she would be coaxed by the ladies of the county town and tell all the past stories about the princess.

Fortunately, the rice noodle workshop held her hand. She only wanted to make money and marry Lin Zhong and Zhong Yang, and did not like to go to the county town.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Father Shen said sternly: "There is a plague in Chang'an City. Don't mention the idea of ​​moving the whole family to Chang'an again!"

Jiang was unwilling to give in: "The plague will always be cured! I will ask you to tell Dong Su and she will make preparations in Chang'an City."

Grandpa Shen slammed the table angrily and glared at her: "As long as I live, you can't even think about moving to Chang'an!"

"You don't want to think about it. Just after the true story of Dong Su's miracle doctor came out, there was a plague in Chang'an. Can Dong Su escape from the task of treating the plague?"

"Prince Ling has the final say in everything in Guangzhou. In Chang'an, he himself is ostracized everywhere. What if he can't protect Dong Su?"

"The plague is no joke. There are parents like you in the world. They don't worry about their daughter's safety, but they always think about others!"

Father Shen lowered his head in shame. He was naturally worried, but he knew that the current Dongsu had extraordinary origins and could definitely cure the plague.

But Jiang still felt that he was right. After all, his daughter was already a princess, so why not take the whole family to Chang'an City?

Besides, it was Dong Su herself who admitted that she was the disciple of the miracle doctor, and it was not someone else who forced her to say it.

She is in Chang'an City and we are so far away. What's the use of worrying?

Only Zhongyang answered Grandpa Shen firmly: "Brother-in-law will definitely protect my sister! He promised."

Shen Linzhong also comforted his grandfather: "Dong Su is a good person, and everything will be fine."

Even so, the family still hurriedly sent a letter to Chang'an, not only to reassure Dong Su that the whole family was well, but also to ask about her situation.

Shen Linzhong also has another thing to worry about, and that is A Yuan and Jia Shiba who are going to Dianzhou.

Jia Shiba told him the plan to only one person and left a few things behind, saying that he deliberately showed them to spies when they came to Shenjia Village.

Those letters have been read by others.

Of the outsiders who have come recently, the one who looks most like a spy is Dayu's friend named Lu Yunzhou.

But that man was very strange. At first he always wanted to join the Shen family as a carpenter apprentice, but now he followed Da Yu to study the waterwheel every day.

It made Shen Linzhong doubt whether he, the spy, was here to inquire about Dong Su or the practices of the waterwheel?

If you are a latecomer, you don’t need to inquire about it when you arrive. You can just buy one and ask a carpenter to make it.

Father Shen did not hide this technology. He had already taught many carpenters and used waterwheels for farmers throughout the county.

Shen Linzhong could only regard Lu Yunzhou as a weirdo like that strange goddess doctor.

Well, Lu Yunzhou is certainly not a weirdo, he is just a Mo sect disciple who is too obsessed with Shenjiacun's Mo sect skills.

Moreover, he also discovered a talent for the division, that is Yu Dayu.

He felt that staying in Shenjia Village was too humiliating for Yu Dayu. Even if he joined the Ministry of Works as an official in the future because of Princess Ling, it would be very humiliating.

A Mo Sect genius like him should go to Mo Sect for further study.

Therefore, he has recently ranked finding out about Princess Ling's life experience as his second priority.

The first priority is to persuade Yu Dayu to follow him.

Naturally, Yu Dayu didn't want to work. His father was old, his mother had eye problems, and his two younger sisters had not yet left the family.

As the backbone of the family, how could he go to school with a friend he just met?

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Lu Yunzhou asked Yu Dayu directly: "What do you want to do before you dare to study with me at Momen?"

Yu Dayu said seriously: "My parents have no worries about food and clothing, and the family has hired two tenants to take care of them."

"My little sister is still young and is learning female red in the workshop."

"Well, as long as my eldest sister gets married, I will have time to leave home for a year or two, as you said, to learn the craft from a master."
