Reborn on the day of marriage! After the marriage exchange, the elder sister went crazy
Chapter 196 Looking for someone
early morning.
Mr. Gu, who was teaching students to farmers in Xishui Village, Nanli County, opened the door of his home and saw a person lying outside.
"Why are you lying at my doorstep? The villagers will need to come over to learn how to read and write soon." Mr. Gu walked over and pushed the man.
The person he pushed didn't react at all, as if he was dead.
Mr. Gu was startled and quickly reached out to check his breath and then touched his neck.
Feeling that there was still a pulse, Mr. Gu breathed a sigh of relief, "I was scared to death."
Yang Laoshi, who had gotten up early and finished working in the fields, came over carrying a hoe. When he saw someone lying at the door of Mr. Gu's house, he was also shocked.
"Who is this?" Yang Laoshi walked over and turned the person on the ground over, only to see a long scar on his face.
The scar had festered and half of his face was swollen, so it was impossible to tell what the man looked like.
"How did you get injured like this?" Yang Laoshi and Mr. Gu were both kind-hearted people, and they quickly dragged the man into the yard.
"I'll go cook some Artemisia annua." Mr. Gu hurriedly asked his wife to turn on the stove and start cooking the medicine.
It is common for farmers to get injured.
Mr. Gu always has some common medicines for injuries.
After a while, the Artemisia annua water was cooked.
With the help of Yang Laoshi, Mr. Gu fed the stranger a bowl of medicine.
He then chopped the Artemisia annua into pieces and applied it to the stranger's wound.
Maybe it was because of the medicine he took, or maybe the stranger had a stronger desire to survive.
After a while, the stranger woke up slowly.
"Thank... so much..." Half of the stranger's face was swollen, and he couldn't open his eye. He could barely open the other eye.
"Where are you from?" Mr. Gu asked him.
The stranger's voice was weak: "I'm from Tongbai, Henan."
"Oh, you actually ran so far?" Mr. Gu was a little surprised, and took the rice porridge handed over by his wife, "Drink some rice porridge to replenish your body."
When the stranger smelled the fragrance of the rice porridge, he was already starving, but he forced himself to take the rice porridge.
"It's a good thing that you can eat." Mr. Gu was relieved.
Yang Laoshi came over and asked, "Henan is a major grain-producing province. What kind of fertilizer do you use? Can you tell me about it?"
Mr. Gu stopped him and said, "Don't you see that he is sick? Why are you asking these questions?"
Yang Laoshi scratched his head and chuckled, "It's not easy for me to meet someone from another province."
The stranger took a breath and answered Yang Laoshi's question in a halting manner: "The grain production in Henan is only about two stone, and they usually only use livestock fertilizer."
It turns out they only use animal manure over there?
Yang Laoshi was a little disappointed and asked again: "What's your name?"
"My surname is Yuan (yuàn), I don't have a name, and I'm the second child in my family."
"Oh, Yuan Er." Yang Laoshi muttered the name and scratched his head, "This name..."
Reading them together sounds like crying out for injustice.
Seeing that Yuan Er was somewhat conscious, Mr. Gu asked, "Why did you come to the capital from Henan?"
"My family was struck by disaster and we all fled to the capital, but many died along the way and I am the only one left. I was injured and if you hadn't saved me, I would have died."
Yuan Er said this and stood up to kowtow to Mr. Gu and Yang Laoshi.
"That's not possible." Mr. Gu was also one of the people who came to the capital to seek refuge with relatives and friends after his hometown was hit by a disaster. When he heard Yuan Er say this, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy for him.
"Do you have a pass?" asked Mr. Gu.
"There is a tooth plate." Yuan Er pointed to his neck.
Mr. Gu lifted up Yuan Er's collar and found an ivory plate.
The ivory plate is engraved with the name, hometown and family address.
The refugees certainly would not have a pass, and their only proof of identity would be the ivory tag.
Mr. Gu himself has escaped a disaster, so he understands this.
He stuffed the ivory plate back into Yuan Er's collar and said, "Let's heal our wounds first."
If Lu Bozhou and Li Jinglan had not helped him, he and his old wife would have starved to death in the dilapidated temple where they lived.
They are all wanderers in this world.
If you can lend a hand, please do so.
"Thank you..." Yuan Er forced a grateful smile.
But combined with his swollen and bruised face, it looks horrifying no matter how you look at it.
Seeing that Mr. Gu wanted to keep Yuan Er, Yang Laoshi pulled Mr. Gu out.
"Why did you keep him?"
Mr. Gu sighed: "If it weren't for His Royal Highness Prince Pei, my wife and I would have died in Nanli County."
Yang Laoshi knew everything about Mr. Gu.
Hearing what Mr. Gu said, Yang Laoshi understood what Mr. Gu was thinking: "I just observed his fingers. Although they are all covered with mud, they have no calluses. You can try to get him to talk and see what he used to do."
"I save that!" Mr. Gu turned his head and glanced at Yuan Er who was lying in the yard.
Yang Laoshi added, "If he is from a good family and can read, you should adopt him. Adopting him will save his life, and he will be able to take care of you in your old age and see you to the end of your life."
Mr. Gu nodded.
Yang Laoshi patted Mr. Gu on the shoulder and said, "I'll help you carry him into the house."
The two old men worked together to carry Yuan Er into the house.
As soon as he lay on the bed, Yuan Er's strength relaxed.
His head tilted and he fell into complete coma.
"Why isn't he breathing?" Yang Laoshi muttered, and touched Yuan Er's neck with his hand. "Fortunately, he's still beating."
"I'll cook some herbs and feed them to him later. If he can survive, he's lucky. If not..." Having said this, Mr. Gu fell silent.
If he can't survive, that's Yuan Er's fate!
An injury like Yuan Er's cannot be cured without ten taels of silver.
Mr. Gu only earns two taels of silver a year.
Where would I get the money to hire a doctor to treat Yuan Er?
"It all depends on how lucky you are." Mr. Gu walked out and closed the door.
……
"Have you found it?" Lu Bozhou looked at the head of the yamen runners who came to report the matter.
The head of the yamen runners was named Yuan Lai.
When Li Jinglan married Lu Bozhou, he helped Li Jinglan drive Lu Zhang out of the house.
Li Jinglan was kidnapped, and Yuan Lai was responsible for finding her.
Later, Lu Bozhou asked Xu Feng for a favor and asked Yuan Lai to come over.
Yuan Lai has been helping Lu Bozhou with some outside work.
Hearing Lu Bozhou asking him, Yuan Lai cupped his hands and said, "We found the child."
"The child is a palace eunuch, eight years old, and just entered the palace this year."
Hearing that it was a eunuch, Lu Bozhou nodded slightly.
Wenyuan Pavilion is inside the imperial city and outsiders cannot enter at all.
This child must be a eunuch in the palace.
In other words, the person who handed the bundle to the young eunuch was also someone from the palace.
Lu Bozhou asked, "Did he say who gave him the bag?"
The head of the yamen runners, Yuan Lai, nodded and said, "Wei Yan, the official in the Prince's Chamberlain's Office."
Lu Bozhou took a breath of cold air.
The prince’s men?
What does it mean that the prince's men gave the account book to Zhou Jin?
Li Jinglan was about to give birth those days, so he took leave in advance.
Could it be that Wei Yan couldn't find him and passed the thing to Zhou Jin?
Li Jinglan heard it clearly from behind the screen and raised her voice to ask, "Brother Yuan, where is Wei Yan now?"
The call of "Brother Yuan" made Yuan Lai bend over. He cupped his hands and said, "In reply to the princess, Wei Yan is missing. I also found out that Wei Yan's wife and children are also missing."
"disappeared?"
Li Jinglan thought of Lu Xuande.
Lu Xuande's family disappeared inexplicably, and after Lu Bozhou's identity was revealed, the case inexplicably came to a standstill again.
Li Jinglan vaguely knew the truth of that year.
The King of Chu colluded with the Red Lotus Sect in rebellion, which caused Lu Bozhou's disappearance.
The emperor suppressed Lu Xuande's case and stopped trying it further, proving that Lu Xuande's case might involve the remnants of the King of Chu.
Feeling that her thoughts had strayed a little, Li Jinglan asked Wei Yan again: "Is there anyone else looking for Wei Yan?"
Yuan Lai replied: "No one in the palace is looking for Wei Yan, and no one is looking for that eunuch either. But I have heard something: the Dali Temple has issued a warrant to arrest Wei Yan."
"Dali Temple?" Li Jinglan sat up straight.
Sheren was of the seventh rank and was a formal official of the Eastern Palace.
How can the Dali Temple have the right to arrest people?
Yuan Lai thought for a moment and answered, "After some investigation, I found that the Dali Temple did not issue any arrest warrants."
"Pretending to be the Dali Temple to issue an arrest warrant? How brave!" Li Jinglan was surprised.
Lu Bozhou said, "Is it to facilitate the pursuit? So they used the name of Dali Temple?"
Li Jinglan thought for a while and shook her head, "Let me check again. I always feel something is wrong."
Li Jinglan thought of something else: "Tell Gao Daxi to bring the child here. The child is not safe in the palace."
"Okay, I'll talk to Gao Daxi later." Lu Bozhou said.
