Chapter 1685 Extra: Ome (25)
When the carriage entered the city, Yan Rongjin found an inn to stay temporarily, and Uncle Peng went outside to inquire about the news.
Soon the news came back. After the people around Wucheng contracted fever, the prefect of Wucheng did nothing and turned the people away. The girl I saw outside the city passed by Wucheng, seeing a doctor and donating medicines for the common people, without taking a cent. I heard that the girl is famous for Acacia, and she met the shopkeeper of Qian's shop.
Nowadays, people in and out of the city call Xiangsi girl a good person.
"Young Master, according to this old slave, that girl probably didn't have any other intentions in what she did for the common people."
Yan Rongjin was thoughtful, "Famous Acacia, met the shopkeeper of Qian's shop? Knowing medical skills..."
Then his eyes suddenly lifted up, with a smile on his face, "Why didn't I expect it to be her."
"Master?"
"It's Hongdou, she's the only one who does this without hiding her thoughts behind it."
"Is it Princess Hongdou?" Uncle Peng was also stunned, "When I first saw the situation outside the city, I also suspected that the girl was trying to make a splash out of her ulterior motives, maybe knowing that the emperor is coming here soon, and wanted to attract the emperor's attention in this way , the old slave is worrying too much."
If it were Princess Hongdou, the situation they thought would really not happen.
Not to mention that Princess Hongdou would not have other thoughts about the emperor, even if she did, the King of Nanling would not allow it.
In the eyes of King Nanling, the emperor is probably an old man, cough, not worthy of his precious daughter.
"Uncle Peng, what do you think?"
Uncle Peng hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this old slave didn't think about anything!"
Yan Rongjin didn't doubt that he was there, turned his gaze out of the window, and calmed down slightly, "Even girls from other countries have compassion for my people, but the officials I support ignore them. Uncle Peng, is it true that my methods have been too gentle all these years?" gone?"
"What is the emperor going to do?"
"Investigate, collect evidence, since we want to rectify, we must kill chickens and monkeys."
The emperor gave the order and acted vigorously.
Three days later, the gates of Wucheng were opened wide.
At the city gate, a notice was posted. The magistrate of Wucheng dereliction of duty, he did not seek his own government in his position, disregarded the sufferings of the people, bent the law for personal gain, embezzled and accepted bribes, and was punished for several crimes. He was sentenced to be beheaded. The other big and small officials in Wucheng can't escape the responsibility, and they will be sentenced according to their crimes!
People outside the city flocked to see what happened to the dog official.
On the day that the dog official was beheaded, Hong Dou and Qiqi packed their bags in a certain inn, preparing to leave quietly.
"Qiqi, take this prescription to brother Xiaoqi. With him here, the fever of the people in Wucheng can be better resolved." Before leaving, Hongdou handed the prescription to Qiqi.
They stayed in Wucheng for more than a month, and she almost used up all her money to buy medicinal materials. However, she was alone and weak, and what she did was just a drop in the bucket for the sick people.
To solve the problem in Wucheng, we must rely on the imperial court and the concerted efforts of the monarch and the people.
After receiving the prescription, Qi Qi looked down at the street from the window of the guest room. The street was crowded with people, all of them were waiting for the dog officer's prison car to pass by.
Qiqi turned her head and gestured to Hongdou.
Hong Dou smiled, "I know, I will wait for you here, don't run around."
After hesitating for a while, Qiqi gestured again—Emperor Dongyue is in the Yamen, do you want to see him?
Hongdou shook his head and pushed the young man away, "Brother Xiaoqi has his business to do here, and we also have our experience to complete, so we can go celebrate on his big day. Oh, you are so long-winded, Qiqi, hurry up Come back, I'll wait for you here!"
The door of the room was slammed shut in front of the young man, and the young girl muttered angrily, making the young man raise his lips.
