Changfeng has a place to return

The workers who unloaded the medicinal materials did not expect that this rough work could attract His Royal Highness Xiao Wang to come to see it in person, and they were terrified for a while.Mrs. Liu was also at the scene. She was wearing a coarse smock, her hair was covered with a piece of cloth, her face was hidden from her eyes and nose, and she was busy counting the number of medicine packs with a thick stack of registration books in her hand.

"Mother." Liu Xian'an stepped forward, "Why are you doing these things, Uncle Li?"

"Yes, I didn't let them come over, I want to see for myself." Seeing that Liang Shu was also walking this way, Mrs. Liu took off her mask, straightened her clothes and went forward to salute.There were quite a few small bloody cuts on her hands, which looked like she had just been scratched by dead branches of medicinal herbs, Liang Shu said: "Madam Liu has worked hard."

Liu Xian'an wondered: "What kind of medicinal material, how can there be so many sharp thorns?"

Mrs. Liu lowered her voice: "It's a long story, maybe you need your father to come forward, there is a lot of dust here, so don't join in the fun, go and accompany His Highness King Xiao to go somewhere else."

Liu Xian'an glanced at Liang Shu, Liang Shu understood: "Madam Liu, what's wrong with this batch of medicine?"

Since the prince himself opened the mouth, Mrs. Liu could only sigh, and replied: "It's not really a big problem."

While talking, the workers not far away couldn't lift it steadily, and rolled a large bag of medicinal materials to the ground.The sack was thrown out of the crack, and a lot of black dried fruit "crashed" from inside.Liu Xian'an stepped forward and picked up a handful. It was black black wild dates commonly used to detoxify and clear fire, but it was extremely dirty and had not been picked clean. It was almost mixed with [-]% of loess, [-]% of jujube thorns and dead branches, and [-]% of normal wear and tear. I am afraid that even less than half of them can be used.

No wonder everyone here is full of stab wounds.Liu Xian'an asked: "Did my cousin personally purchase this batch?"

Mrs. Liu didn't want to mention this at first, but seeing that the prince was also waiting to hear the following, she had no choice but to briefly explain the whole story.

Liu Xian'an has a cousin who is about the same age as him, named Fang Jinyuan, who was fostered by Mrs. Liu in Baihe Mountain Villa since he was a child, and studied literature and martial arts with the disciples of the Liu family. , so Mrs. Liu asked him to be responsible for purchasing some medicinal materials.It was okay before, but the last few black black wild dates always have the same problem.

"This is just the first two batches, but I guess the rest will be the same. It won't be much better. Your cousin is still staying in Qingjiang City. I'll ask after he comes back with the last batch."

There were seven or eight small cars coming in continuously from outside, all of which needed to be inspected, Madam Liu continued to work, Liang Shu also picked up a handful of shriveled black black wild dates from the ground, rubbed them in his hands: "Your cousin did it!" ?”

"I'm not familiar with him." Liu Xian'an said, "However, no matter how expensive the black black wild dates are, they are considered common medicines, not more expensive than rare medicinal materials. Cousin should not tamper with here, otherwise it will ruin his reputation , and there is not much benefit, the gain outweighs the loss."

Liang Shu threw the things back: "I don't know medicinal materials."

Liu Xian'an continued to explain to him.Black black wild jujube cannot be artificially cultivated, and it mostly grows in the humid mountains in the south of Dayan. It can grow wildly after a rain, and the fruit is luxuriant, so it is not rare.The only expensive thing is manpower, and it takes a lot of work to pick it.

"Qingjiang City is very close to Baihe City, and it is considered a large production area of ​​black black dates. Every year at this time, the government will organize villagers to go to the mountains to pick them, and then sell them to the four drug dealers after drying." Liu Xian'an said, "I usually I don't care about such things, but if the medicinal materials purchased by others are the same, it is probably the local government's tricks."

Liang Shu was amused: "You are protecting your weaknesses. My cousin is fine, but you insist that it is a matter of officials appointed by the imperial court."

A few more bags of black black wild dates were cut open, which were worse than the previous bag, and there were still undried and moldy ones in them, so a large bag could not be used anymore, and had to be burned and discarded.Mrs. Liu was so impatient and angry that her teeth ached, but more angry things were yet to come, a servant came running from a distance, and said out of breath, "Master Biao is back, just come back He was the only one, saying that the rest of them were detained by the government of Qingjiang City."

Mrs. Liu was shocked: "Huh?"

Everyone went to the front hall together, where Fang Jinyuan was drinking tea with a pot, looking rather embarrassed, with dry lips, as if he hadn't even washed his face.Madam Liu felt distressed and complained: "You have always been a steady tempered person, how could you have a conflict with the government?"

Once Fang Jinyuan, an honest man, got angry, it would be a big deal. The veins on his neck popped up, and he said with a straight face: "That Zhang man is too deceitful. At the beginning, he reasoned that the common people adulterated the medicinal materials in private. If you don't believe me, I ran to peek in the middle of the night, what kind of people are it, it's the government itself that did it."

There are more than one pharmacy in Qingjiang City to collect black black wild dates, no one wants to suffer this loss, and no one wants to be a rafter in the early days, so they secretly trick Fang Jinyuan to say, thinking that the Baihe Mountain Villa has a great career and is blessed with the emperor's favor The local officials always had to give some face, so Fang Jinyuan went seriously, but never thought that the other party was really annoying, and denied it in every possible way. For the crime, the people from Baihe Villa were detained.

Fang Jinyuan continued: "Auntie, I really didn't say anything too extreme. Ah Chang is also very good-natured, and I didn't expect them not to mix it, at least mix it with something that can be picked out in the future, right? It's just the dead branches and leaves, the coal ash at the bottom of the pot I also want to mix it, and I don’t know where they are scraped from.”

Liang Shu asked: "Since the supply of this kind of medicinal material is in short supply, and we have to rely on panic buying, why doesn't the government raise the price, but adulterate it?"

"If it doubles or triples at once, and if it is known by the superiors and even the court, it is inevitable that he will be punished for the crime of hoarding goods. It is better to be like this. Even if something happens in the future, it can be inferred that the people are short-sighted. Wash it up." Fang Jinyuan turned around and saw Liang Shu's eyes were strange, so he asked his cousin, "Is this brother your friend?"

Liu Xian'an nodded, yes, he is my friend.

Mrs. Liu reprimanded: "Hurry up and salute His Highness King Xiao."

His Royal Highness?Fang Jinyuan was frightened on the spot, and hurriedly put down his sleeves, Liang Shu stopped him: "Young Master Fang, don't be too polite, just continue to talk about Qingjiang City. If I remember correctly, the magistrate there should be called Zhang Guanghe?"

"It's him." Fang Jinyuan said, "He just took office a few years ago, and he kept saying that he would be honest and honest, and every day he pretended to build a shed to listen to public opinion, but secretly ruined the reputation of Qingjiang City's medicinal materials. He can pat his ass and get promoted, so he doesn't have to worry about the mess anymore."

Mrs. Liu asked again: "Master Zhang detained our people and goods, and only let you back. Did you say how to solve it?"

"Say it." Fang Jinyuan brought up this incident, and became even more angry, "He said that he would let his aunt go and pick up the man himself. He just wanted to find fault and beat us so that the rest of the medicinal material merchants can take a look, even Baihe Villa can't help it. Without him, no one will make trouble in the future."

It stands to reason that even the emperor should give some face to Baihe Villa. A local official would not be so arrogant, but the problem is that the emperor's face is too hidden. The plaques were all mentioned by the late emperor more than ten years ago.Finally, there was a marriage with the princess, but Liang Yu resolutely rejected it, and the uproar was known all over the country. Even though Liang Shu came to Baihe City, no one knew what he wanted to do. After staying in the city for half a day and then leaving, all kinds of additions will inevitably be speculated by the world. The favor of Baihe Villa is no longer what it used to be.

So Cheng Suyue, who was wandering around the villa, received a new job, and accompanied Fang Jinyuan to Qingjiang City to find people.

Zhang Guanghe probably never dreamed in his life that he would see the Kowloon Token with his own eyes one day, so he was so scared that he sat on the ground on the spot, trembling and weeping.In fact, his embezzlement career has only just started, and he hasn't made much money, and he is not guilty of death, but, but that's His Royal Highness Xiao Wang, can he keep his side?Simply hit to death.

So he got up and went to hit the pillar, but was kicked back by Cheng Suyue, crying more and more hysterically.

It was also the first time for Fang Jinyuan to see this scene, and he even showed awe to his cousin. The first thing he did after returning to Baihe Villa was to personally deliver two packs of good tea and a pack of snacks to him.

Liu Xian'an brewed a pot: "Have a try, my lord?"

Liang Shu had almost forgotten that absurd dream at this time—forcibly forgotten, he took the teacup: "I heard from Mrs. Liu yesterday that the helper brought by your cousin this time is called Liu Hengchang, and he is very nice." Shrewd, good medical skills, and some kung fu."

Liu Xian'an shook his head: "I don't know, there are many people in this villa, I have never seen them before."

Liang Shu said: "I have already sent someone to look for him."

Liu Xian'an was puzzled: "Why are you looking for him?"

Liang Shu put down the teacup: "Guess."

Liu Xian'an was lazy on the table, I don't guess, I'm tired.Anyway, it is definitely not for investigating the case. The matter of Qingjiang Mansion is not qualified to be judged by the prince himself, nor is it for seeing a doctor. Although Ah Chang's medical skills may be good, but he is not good enough to go past his own father to see the doctor for the prince. portion.

Liang Shu said: "If he is really clever, I want to use him to lure the two people who tied you up."

"Huh?" Liu Xianan sat up straight, "Feng Xiaojin?"

Liang Shu nodded.

Liu Xian'an thought about it for a while, the two kidnappers went northward to find a miracle cure, and they used Ah Chang as bait, it was indeed a symptom.He speculated: "So the lord wants to take advantage of the problems with the procurement of medicinal materials this time, and assign half of the blame to Ah Chang, and expel him from Baihe Villa, so that Feng Xiaojin and Yun You can show up on their own initiative?"

"Yes." Liang Shu said, "You said that you had checked Feng Xiaojin's pulse that day, so he can live for another three years at most."

"Almost." Liu Xian'an recalled, "The body is exhausted too much, and there are toxins infested, he really needs to see a doctor as soon as possible. But those two people are extremely cruel, and Ah Chang can stay well in Baihe Villa, so he may not agree with the prince. Proposal, anyway, if it were me, I would definitely not agree."

"Everyone is like you, you can lie down or sit down, you're so lazy." Liang Shu started looking for trouble again, "No eating!"

Liu Xian'an didn't listen, and quickly took a piece of dim sum from the plate. Liang Shu tapped his elbow lightly. Second Young Master Liu's arm was instantly paralyzed, and the dim sum was taken away. Liang Shu raised his arm up, and Liu Xian'an reached out Enough, the upper body is tilted, and the other hand has to support the opponent's shoulder in order to maintain balance.

Liu Hengchang saw this intimate scene as soon as he entered the door, and quickly lowered his eyes, standing aside and waiting respectfully.

His Royal Highness King Xiao is not quite the same as the one in the rumors.

Not only is it not bloody and brutal, but it also smiles quite comfortably and handsomely.
