The #1 Pretty Boy of the Immortal Path

On this day, Lin Shu was taken by the eldest lady to visit several famous historical sites in Jiangzhou. On the way, he bought candied gourds. After returning to the post house, he ate crab and salted duck, and drank the cloud tea brewed by the eldest lady herself.

Because of the continuous feeding, he spent the whole day on a full stomach, and felt that the eldest lady gained happiness in the process of watching him eat.

However, before evening, he was ordered by the eldest lady to go to bed.

There was nothing bothering him, he lay in bed for a while and then fell asleep.At midnight, I noticed movement and woke up.

The eldest lady appeared in the room at some time, and said to him: "Let's go."

During the day, they made an appointment to visit Jiangzhou Mansion at night.

In martial arts stories, when you visit a certain place at night, you must wear night clothes, otherwise you will appear to have a bad attitude.The eldest lady reluctantly took a moment, and put on a veil to cover the lower half of her face.

They go out.

The post house here is used by Jiangzhou Prefecture to entertain distinguished guests, there are guards everywhere, and there are only two standing at the main entrance.

The eldest lady said: "The moonlight is very good tonight."

Lin Shu said: "Yes."

The eldest lady said: "It's an elegant thing to watch the moon with you at midnight."

Lin Shudao: "Yes."

The eldest lady said again: "The pavilions here are uneven, it's not right, let's go back."

Lin Shu: "OK."

Then, they slipped away openly.

After sneaking to a bush in the back garden of the post house, and waiting for the patrolling guards to go away, Lin Shu was picked up by the eldest lady and taken to Jiangzhou Mansion.

Compared with her cousin, Missy's leading skills have improved a lot.It neither goes down too much and strangles the stomach, nor goes up too much to hinder breathing.In less than half a moment, the two of them landed on the outskirts of Jiangzhou Mansion.

The entire Jiangzhou Mansion is composed of Yamen and Zhengshitang.The yamen is in the front, facing the people, and is responsible for handling civil affairs. The political affairs hall is in the back, similar to the small imperial court in this state, with various branches in it, responsible for all clerical affairs.

At this time, both the yamen and the political affairs hall were closed, only a few places were still lit, and there were people watching the night.

They walked around the outer wall, and after observing the general structure, Ling Fengxiao took Lin Shu and flew up again, gently borrowing force on the wall, eaves, and roof one by one. Across most of the political affairs hall.

The young lady's clothes were decorated with light gauze, which floated up and landed on Lin Shu's face.

The position of the night watchman was very tricky, he could see the scene in all directions, but the young lady was superb in lightness skills, she just flew past the sparse tree shadows, and finally landed on the top of the night watchman's house.

It flew over the eaves and walls a few more times, and finally landed on a roof northwest of the center.

There is a big brass lock on the house. Although it can be broken open violently, it will leave traces after all, which is not appropriate.

Then, the eldest lady cast a barrier and began to uncover the tiles.Lin Shu started, and piled the removed tiles aside.

He really didn't expect that in his life, there would be such a novel experience as going to the house with the eldest lady.

The tiles are densely packed, and underneath are wooden girders and mortise and tenon joints. Hundreds of them have been uncovered, and finally there is an opening between the girders that can allow one person to pass through.

After illuminating the inside with the Ye Mingzhu, I found that there is a thick bookcase under the opening, which is just enough for people to stand on.

The cat jumped down first, followed by Lin Shu, but the opening was really narrow, he got stuck in the middle, and was pushed by the eldest lady before he went down completely, and landed on the top of the bookcase.

But it was very easy for the eldest lady to get down, I don't know if it was because of her slender figure, or because of that "Xuanjue Bone Transformation Skill".

After landing, the night pearl illuminates the surrounding area.

There are many large bookcases displayed in this room, and there are many books, which are probably the storage places for various documents.

Ling Fengxiao said: "The regulations of political affairs halls in various states are similar, it seems that I remember correctly."

Ling Fengxiao's trip was to find out whether nearly [-] people were murdered in Wan Guiyuan, whether it was a deception by the officials, or it was due to the emperor's edict.

However, the eldest lady did not look for the edict, but first looked at the records of officials' changes and promotions in Jiangzhou Prefecture.

When looking at it, the tip of the brow slightly frowned.

Lin Shu was on the side, and also saw a lot of strange things.

In the autumn of the 13th year of Yongkang, Jiangzhou Governor Shi was deposed for the crime of slander and demoted to Liyang.

In the summer of the 14th year of Yongkang, Situ Wang Jingzhi of Jiangzhou was demoted to Zhulin.

In the winter of the 14th year of Yongkang, Bingguang, the governor of Jiangzhou, was recalled to Beijing.

In the winter of the 14th year of Yongkang, Zhao Yu, the prefect of Jiangzhou, retired and returned home.

......

The dynasty changed its year name, and it is now the second year of Guanghe, that is to say, the 14th year of Yongkang, and the 13th year of Yongkang was exactly four or five years ago.

Within a year or two after the plague, the top officials in Jiangzhou experienced a major change of blood. Most of the original people went to other places for various reasons and were no longer in Jiangzhou.

"He's already dead." Ling Fengxiao said suddenly.

Lin Shu looked over and saw the eldest lady's finger pointing at the name of the governor who was recalled to Beijing: "Three years ago, she was deposed as a commoner because of her involvement with cronies, and then she died in depression."

Speaking of this, the eldest lady said calmly: "I don't know the rest of the people, but I don't know how many are still alive."

Five years ago, Jiangzhou was plagued by a plague, and tens of thousands of people were thrown into Wangui Yuan.

In the next two years, important officials were replaced one after another, and one of them was confirmed dead.

Ling Fengxiao moved to the bookcase where the household registration book that was checked every three years was located.

A cabinet full of paperwork was picked out, and when it was opened, it was full of shocking scarlet letters.

A certain person in a certain village died of an epidemic.

His wife, a certain family, died of an epidemic.

The eldest son, XX, died of an epidemic.

The second son, XX, died of an epidemic.

These scarlet letters have a rule, a family is often extinct, and people in a village are often extinct.

——Why is this?

Lin Shu looked at Ling Fengxiao, and for a while, the two were relatively speechless.

There is no need to look for edicts or secret orders anymore, the horrific tragedy of Wan Guiyuan did have the Tian family's order behind it.

Anyone who is infected, every family will be cleaned up, and the whole village will not be spared. Then, the news must be controlled.

How can a single official, even with monstrous power, do this without leaking water?

Therefore, there must be seamless cooperation between various departments at this time.

After the epidemic subsided, all officials who might know the truth were transferred away, or returned to their hometowns, or were exiled, or died.

——How could there be no order from the capital?

After a long time, Ling Fengxiao put down the booklet and said, "Let's go."

Get out of the roof, drop the tiles back, and return to the post house.

— After knowing the truth, they can do nothing.

Lin Shu knew that the eldest lady was in a bad mood at this time, so she didn't dare to say anything, and went back to her room.

He also didn't sleep well in the second half of the night, and fell asleep in a daze after thinking about a lot of things.

On the second day, leave Jiangzhou and return to the school palace.

When leaving the city, the eldest lady reined in her horse and turned around, saying: "Look."

Lin Shu looked at the sparse pedestrians on the street, wondering what the eldest lady wanted to see.

The eldest lady said: "Mostly they are women."

Lin Shu looked again and found that it was indeed the case.

He has been in modern times for a long time, and he has seen a lot of women on the street, so at first glance, he doesn't think there is anything.But this is the ancient world, the way of immortality is good, and mortal women don't show their faces very much.

"Five years after the Battle of Changyang, Beixia frequently invaded again. The situation at the border was urgent. Our court changed the employment law to the law of servants. The adult men in each household will serve corvee in order." Ling Fengxiao said lightly, " Soldiers are needed at the border, and once there are too many soldiers, money and food are needed to raise them, so we have to collect more taxes. After ten years, the national treasury has been empty, and the power of the people is also weak."

"Five years ago, there was a flood in this place, affecting 10 people in five states. Disaster relief, relief, and plague treatment all required huge amounts of money and food. The national power is limited, so we had to cut the mess quickly and kill the sick. Perhaps it was a last resort. ....." Ling Fengxiao's voice gradually lowered: "It's just that I'm a little hard to calm down in my heart."

When she said this, the eldest lady kept holding Lin Shu's hand.

Lin Shu also knew that Missy was unhappy, so she patted the back of Missy's hand lightly with the other hand that was not being held to comfort her.

Then, the eldest lady's other arm came from behind and encircled him - the hand that was not held was also caught.

I only heard the eldest lady continue: "The root of this matter is traced to the source. After all, it was caused by the war. When I improve my martial arts in the future—"

The words were not finished, but Lin Shu knew what Ling Fengxiao meant.

He said, "You can definitely do it."

Ling Fengxiao smiled and said, "Thank you."

Lin Shu thought that since the eldest lady is so motivated, she can't be lazy after returning to the academy, she needs to work harder on the piano and study "Silence".

Zhao Ye let out a long hiss, and rushed towards Shuzhou.

They were on the road during the day and rested at night. After three days and three nights, they returned to Shangling Mountain.

Ling Fengxiao placed Zhaoye in the beast stable in the back mountain, and walked to Biyutian side by side with Lin Shu.

Shangling Mountain is full of aura, and the air is full of the fragrance of plants and trees. It is different from the ordinary world. When you come here, your spirit will slowly relax.

The cat looked around curiously in Lin Shu's arms: "Meow."

The eldest lady touched it and said, "Who do you want to live with?"

The cat burrowed into Lin Shu's arms: "Meow."

The eldest lady said: "Then you have to protect him."

Cat: "Meow."

Lin Shu watched the eldest lady and the cat having a serious conversation, one question and one answer, and found it very interesting, so she couldn't help smiling.

Seeing him smiling, the eldest lady also hooked her lips.

The next moment, he put away his smile and frowned slightly.

Lin Shu felt that this expression was very wrong - at the next moment, he saw the eldest lady put her right hand on her forehead, her figure swayed, and she was about to fall forward!

His heartbeat stopped for a beat, and he immediately let go of the cat and went to pick up the eldest lady.

But all this happened too fast, he didn't catch it completely, he only pulled the young lady's arm, and his center of gravity was unstable, and finally the two of them rolled heavily on the mountain road.

The cat was also thrown, and said in a nasty voice, "Meow!"

Lin Shu got up, but saw that Ling Fengxiao had passed out without warning.

He touched the young lady's forehead and almost got burned.

Feel the spiritual power again—the scorching spiritual power surges wildly, and flows chaotically in the meridians.

Isn't this what happened to Ling Xiao a few days ago?Why did it appear on the eldest lady?

However, no matter the reason, Lin Shu felt a little more relaxed after knowing the cause.

There is no other reason, this problem, he just can cure it.

It's just that it takes at least half an hour to perform the exercises, and no matter what, you have to get the person back to the bamboo house first.

Lin Shu put one arm around the young lady's waist, letting the young lady lean against his chest, and put the other arm through the man's knee, intending to hug him horizontally.

Hug it horizontally.

pick up.

——I can't hold it.

Lin Shu: "..."

Is he too imaginary?

The cat sat on the side, mockingly called: "Meow."

The author has something to say: what is hard to be strong and sparse: fate insists on making Lin Shu do things that he cannot do, such as hugging his fiancée.

Shao does not know things: the world is impermanent, Brother Shao never expected the accident to happen like this.
