Prime Minister Chasing Her Husband

Xie Xuan sent Li Yong away, but he didn't stay in his house for the night. Instead, he asked someone to lead the carriage and went back to Li's residence overnight.It was just late at night, afraid of disturbing Li Zhiyuan, so he didn't go to his room, and left a message to let the servant girl know Li Zhiyuan early in the morning that he was back, and then went to Li Heng. He prepared it for him for many years but rarely used it. past wing.

In the early morning of the second day, Xie Xuan spread out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone used for strategizing on the desk in the wing room, dipped the pen in cinnabar and wrote the words "Ten Rules to Admonish My Emperor", and then silently waited for Li Zhiyuan's arrival.These days are still cold, Li Zhiyuan slept longer than usual, Xie Xuan waited in the wing room until the sun was high, and the young man came to his room with lazy steps.

"Didn't you have something important to discuss with others? What are you doing when you come back suddenly? I was shocked when I woke up this morning." Li Zhiyuan walked to Xie Xuan's side, sat at the desk consciously, and then picked up Xie Xuan's stripped paper. Loquat began to eat. "This loquat is not bad. It's from a house in the suburbs of Beijing. Well, the pollen pollination is good this year. I'll still want this loquat next year."

"Why are you scared when I come back? Could it be that you don't want to see me so much?"

"As soon as you come back, don't you have to grab me to make a policy theory? You know that the spring is coming, and you force me to write this and that, but you write it yourself. You just talk and don't practice. I'm in the mansion all day long. Dealing with this guy and that guy, you have endless reasons to go around to meet people for tea and dinner, and only the state officials are allowed to set fire."

"So I took the carriage for half an hour in the middle of the night and came back with a big bag of loquats, and peeled them for you early in the morning. Is it my fault?" Xie Xuan smiled wryly.

"No, I didn't say you were wrong, just let the horse come here, what are you going to write today?" Li Zhiyuan saw Xie Xuan's old father's wry smile, and decided to comfort him with a few words.

"It's the one on the table."

Li Zhiyuan looked at it and was shocked: "Ten things to remonstrate with my emperor? This, this is not yesterday..."

"Exactly, let's write."

"What are you writing this for?" Li Zhiyuan muttered and still picked up his pen.Recently, he has been forced by Xie Xuan to write policy theory almost every day. The training intensity of two articles a day has allowed him to write with spirit no matter how tricky the topic he sees. Regardless of the quality, the number of words must be enough first.

Li Zhiyuan worked hard to write for about an hour, and wrote many pages eloquently, and confidently handed the stack of papers to Xie Xuan, saying: "Take it and read."

Xie Xuan took Li Zhiyuan's masterpiece, read two lines, then turned to the next page, then to the last page, and finally put the stack of papers back in front of Li Zhiyuan, looked at Li Zhiyuan with a smile, and said something very gentle : "Redo."

"What?" Li Zhiyuan seemed to have heard some unbelievable news, "You didn't even read it carefully, have you read enough of the two lines, let me redo it, I won't do it."

Xie Xuan got up, walked up to Li Zhiyuan, touched Li Zhiyuan's bun, and said, "Well, it's really time to rest after writing these hours, so let's go have a meal, come back in the afternoon, and redo it."

"Why, isn't my handwriting a bit sloppy? Why do you ask me to redo it, or I will read it to you." Li Zhiyuan picked up his own strategy and read aloud: "My emperor is wise, since my emperor was one year old Inheriting the great rule, the great Qi, the prosperity of the country and the peace of the people, and the peace and happiness of the whole country, these are all the achievements of the Holy One..."

"I didn't say it, but you still have the nerve to read it, don't you?" Xie Xuan tugged at Li Zhiyuan's ear helplessly, which made Li Zhiyuan unhappy for a while, "I asked you to write ten articles to remonstrate my emperor, not ten articles to praise my emperor. , what did you write?"

"That's the emperor? Could it be that I can still yell at you? Throughout the ages, which admonisher have you seen who expresses his heart can die well? Brother, are you stupid in doing business?"

"Nonsense. Write as soon as you are asked to write, and write well. Don't allow these messy things, or go back to your room to play."

Li Zhiyuan was forced to rewrite it at the request of Xie Xuan, who knew that he would write it over and over again.Li Zhiyuan was busy making suggestions, while Xie Xuan was busy reading the files.Li Yong sent two thick files early in the morning, one was the case of the plague in Wujia Village.The person who reported this case was Lin Yuheng, which made sense, after all, Wujia Village was under his jurisdiction.

At present, the dossier Xie Xuan has obtained is almost the same as the investigation of the plague case in Wujia Village in his previous life. The only change is the addition of a document that Marquis An Yong entered Wujia Village to investigate the unfortunate coma caused by the disease.Xie Xuan had been skeptical about the Wujiacun case before. It was a plague, and it lasted for more than a month before it was reported. However, there was no special reaction in the capital except for the panic of skyrocketing prices and everyone's self-inflicted danger.If it was an infection, all the people who died were from Wujia Village. No one died in the adjacent villages. Occasionally, a person with a fever was typhoid fever.In his last life, he felt that the situation was different, but he didn't say anything about it.He wanted to go to Wujia Village, but the place was surrounded by soldiers, and not even a fly could fly in. If he wanted to go in and check the news, he had to report it layer by layer.And every time he submitted a request, he was sent back as it was, saying that the severe epidemic was for his own good, but no one knew who it was for.After two times, Xie Xuan realized that if he followed the formal procedures, he might never be able to enter Wujia Village, so he could only stand still and wait for a good opportunity silently.

After about three months like this, the epidemic situation in Wujia Village has come to an end, and the defense gradually began to relax.Fortunately, he discovered that there was a rest room next to Wujia Village, where the soldiers ate, bathed, and rested, and no one was watching them on weekdays.One day, he secretly took the clothes of the guards, put them on and sneaked into Wujia Village.Almost as soon as he entered the village, he noticed something strange. Usually, if a village is plagued by plague, there must be some strange smells, such as the smell of rotting human and animal corpses, and the smell of various Chinese herbal medicines.But this was not the case in Wujia Village. When Xie Xuan entered, Wujia Village had no villagers except soldiers.Outside these soldiers guarded an empty village day and night.Not only that, the whole village was filled with a strong smell of blood and sulfur, which made him sick.Even so, he suppressed the nausea and walked towards a place where the smell was stronger.The sky was getting dark, and there were no residents in Wujia Village. Xie Xuan could only rely on the dim moonlight to identify the road ahead, but it suddenly started raining after he took two steps.

Xie Xuan followed the smell and walked forward quickly, wanting to finish the case quickly and go back. One accidentally tripped and fell into a puddle. His body was completely wet. Xie Xuan instinctively picked up his sleeves and took a look. The mud was very strange. , took out the sleeves of his white shirt inside and saw that it was scarlet.Looking at the thing that tripped him up, it was the body of a dead person, but it must have been dead for a long time, and his whole body was stiff.Xie Xuan didn't dare to move, but he was reluctant to leave. Suddenly there was a thunderstorm, and he saw the man's appearance clearly through the lightning.Dressed as a farmer, his face is pale, and his clothes are torn, with arrow holes.It was clear that this man had been the target of numerous soldiers.

Xie Xuan's ability to bear was limited. Seeing these things, he no longer had the courage to continue, so he ran back to the rest station quickly. He met two patrolling soldiers on the road. He only said that he was unlucky and fell down, so he had to hurry up. Go to the rest stop and change clothes.Xie Xuan had originally booked an inn two miles away from Wujia Village. He thought it would be difficult to rush back overnight after checking.But when he came out of Wujia Village, he felt nauseated and trembling all over, so he rented a car and horse at the inn and rushed back to Kyoto overnight.

His carriage arrived at the gate of Xie Mansion at the same time as Li Zhiyuan's carriage.Li Zhiyuan got out of the car first, holding an oil-paper umbrella, seeing him getting out of the car, he shouted excitedly: "Brother Xie." Seeing that he didn't bring an umbrella, he opened an umbrella and went to pick him up.

"I heard that my sister-in-law went to visit relatives with her mother these few days. I thought you might be bored by yourself. Just today, my father's friend sent someone to send some high-quality beef, so I brought you some. It's already marinated in the mansion, we can roast it and eat it, you see." Li Zhiyuan held an umbrella in his right hand, and held a basket of raw meat in his left hand, held it up to Xie Xuan, and showed it to him.As soon as Xie Xuan saw the raw meat, he couldn't stop vomiting, broke out in cold sweat, and finally fell into a trance, only heard Li Zhiyuan kept calling "Brother Xie, brother Xie" and passed out.

When he woke up again, he was already on the bed, with Li Zhiyuan sitting beside him. "Brother Xie, you've woken up. You scared me to death. Do you know if you have typhoid fever? Although it's been warm these days, you still have to wear a middle coat. You're such a big man, and you can't take care of yourself. Don't wear it." Forget about the middle clothes, but after running out in the rain for a long time and coming back, not a single part of your body is dry. Just now you are so hot that you can roast beef." Li Zhiyuan was relieved when he saw Xie Xuan wake up, and immediately went down to fetch a bowl of soup .

"When you were fainting just now, I fed you a drink, and drink it again now, sleep well at night, sweat, and you will be fine tomorrow."

Xie Xuan took the medicine and drank it silently without saying a word.

"Okay, if you are sick tonight, I won't bother you. I will go home first. You should eat lightly when you are sick. It seems that you are not blessed to enjoy this barbecue. I can only take it back and visit you tomorrow." Li Zhiyuan stood up while speaking, ready to leave.

"Don't bother." Xie Xuan was a little hasty when he said this, choked on the medicine, and "coughed" twice.

"Huh?" Li Zhiyuan looked back at him puzzled, "No trouble, I came here very quickly from Li's residence, Brother Xie, don't be unfamiliar with me, anyway, we have lived together for many years."

"What I mean is that you don't have to go back tonight. It's so troublesome to come back tomorrow. Anyway, there is no one in my house. Let someone bring a new mattress over. You can just rest here." He changed his face, but his heart was beating wildly. He was afraid of being rejected. He knew that Li Zhiyuan was like his life-saving straw at this time.

"Then, shall I stay?"
