The Regent Princess has run away again

Chapter 132 Go there in person

An anxious voice came from outside the imperial study. Xia Yu frowned subconsciously. When he was about to scold, the message from the palace servant made his face darker.

"Your Majesty, there has been a riot in Yuyang County! Crowds of people are rushing towards Zhaoyuan City!"

Xia Yu's fingers holding the memorial were slightly bent, his expression became more gloomy, a hint of doubt flashed across his eyes, he pursed his lips, and then said: "Call Zheng Wuchang to come to see me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The palace servant lowered his head and quickly retreated. When he was about to call for help, he saw Nangong Ye approaching from a distance and hurried over to say, "Greetings, His Majesty the Regent. The Emperor is still in the Imperial Study."

"Well, you go down."

Nangong Ye waved his hand nonchalantly, looking at the wooden door that was still slightly open not far away. He thought about it thoughtfully and walked over at a leisurely pace.

"Aye, you came just in time. You must have heard about the riot in Yuyang County."

"I have heard that Princess Kangle has also rushed to Yuyang County. There are too many suspicious points in this incident. However, I think it is more important to block the common people outside the city gate."

"You and I have the same idea. I plan to let Zheng Wuchang guard the city gates. I will also send a few doctors from the Imperial Hospital to see if anyone has any problems."

A hint of worry flashed across Nangong Ye's handsome face. Although he had already told him about the abnormality in Yuyang County, the current development seemed to be a trap set by the other party.

Recently, Yuzhou Guoan’s performance has made people suspicious.

He pursed his lips, his dark eyes were like an ancient well, with no end in sight. He sat down on the pearwood chair by the window, tapping his fingers lightly on the round table.

"Your Majesty, I would like to go to Yuyang County in person."

"Okay, do you want me to send someone to go with you?"

"No need, I will set off now while it is still early."

Xia Yu didn't say much when he saw this. After all, they had been together since childhood, and he knew that Nangong Ye was a stubborn person. Once this guy made up his mind, no one could change it.

He sighed helplessly and said, "I knew you would say that. Remember to take care of your body and don't overwork yourself."

Nangong Ye smiled and said nothing else. The two chatted for a while in the imperial study.

After leaving the palace, You quietly came behind Nangong Ye and said, "Master, everyone has gathered."

"Let's go now."

"Yes!"

Nangong Ye straightened the sleeves of his brocade robe, tiptoed onto a brown horse in front of him, and headed towards the city gate.

In Yuyang County, the messy mud ground was mixed with blood and some broken porcelain bowls, and the atmosphere of fear all around made people feel suffocated.

Among them, a woman in plain clothes was running back and forth between the houses on both sides, with her shiny black hair casually tied into a bun.

After all, Xiaoqiu was not around, and this kind of bun was too difficult to style, so Xue Zhiyu decided to do it in the most convenient way.

Her delicate face was covered with sweat from running around, but her bright and charming peach blossom eyes were still impossible to ignore, especially her determined look, as clear as a trickle of spring water, washing away the uneasiness in everyone's hearts.

She rolled up her sleeves which were a bit in the way, and personally felt the pulse and gave acupuncture to each citizen. At first, she was a little worried that her master would let her take full responsibility after letting her check once, so she was a little nervous.

But now that she has done it so much, she has become very skilled at it. Besides, she is a famous doctor after all, so she naturally has some basic knowledge of these things.

"Thank you for your hard work, do you need any help?"

Xue Zhiyu glanced at Mingzhi who was walking over with a grin on his face. She rolled her eyes in annoyance and said, "Why don't you wait until tomorrow to say this."

Ming Zhi pretended to be sad and wiped away the non-existent tears, and slowly said: "Junior sister, you are wrong to blame me. It's mainly because junior sister is too outstanding. I should be ashamed of myself."

"Alright, alright, come quickly and help me feed these doses of medicine to the people lying over there."

"No problem. I will definitely not refuse if Junior Sister calls me."

Xue Zhiyu glanced at Mingzhi who was already feeding him medicine, then she put away the silver needle in her hand. She was so tired that she sat down on a wooden bench beside her and leaned against the earth wall to rest.

Looking at the sun that had already risen high in the sky, Xue Zhiyu was already starving. After all, acupuncture was a laborious job, and she now wished she could just sit there and do nothing.

"Eat some bread first, don't be hungry."

Xue Zhiyu was stunned for a moment, looking at the sesame seed bun that appeared in front of her without her knowing when. She swallowed her saliva unwillingly, took it without any hesitation, and after taking a bite, her eyes suddenly lit up. She didn't bother to say anything else and wolfed down the whole sesame seed bun.

She turned her head and looked at Mu Xingchen and said, "Oh my God, when did Master buy the sesame cakes?"

"Just now, I picked some red vermilion fruit."

Xue Zhiyu looked at the rouge-red fruits that Mu Xingchen had put in a cloth bag, picked up one and put it in her mouth.

I have to say that this fruit is sour and sweet, and has enough juice to quench your thirst.

"Master, have you eaten too?"

"Yeah, I've eaten," Mu Xingchen said, put the cloth bag on the wooden table beside him, and walked into the next room without looking back.

Xue Zhiyu supported her chin and stared at Mu Xingchen's back as he left. She couldn't help but sigh. It turned out that her master was the type who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. The more she got to know him, the more she felt that her master was not as cold as when they first met.

"Wow, Junior Sister, you eat alone. Why don't you let Senior Brother eat the fruit?"

Before Xue Zhiyu could react, she saw a green figure running over quickly, grabbing a handful of fruits and stuffing them into her sleeves.

Kankan watched silently from the side. She glanced at Mu Xingchen, but her attention was soon attracted by Mingzhi.

When she saw Mingzhi took away most of the fruit, she complained in a low voice: "Shame on you, you have the nerve to take so much."

Mingzhi's hand holding the fruit froze, and he glanced at her, as if deliberately going against her. He walked up to Kankan and ate while praising, "This red vermilion fruit is really good, sweet and sour, and the juice fills your mouth as soon as you bite it. It's so refreshing to eat one on such a hot day."

"You! Why are you talking to me so close? I'm not deaf!"

"I'm not deaf either."

"you!!!"

"Alright, alright. The weather is hot. Eat if you want. Master said there are fruits nearby that you can pick."

Seeing the two of them glaring at each other, Xue Zhiyu had no choice but to speak out to try to reconcile them.

Although the two stopped arguing, they didn't even want to look at each other. They turned their heads and found a seat to sit.

After Mo Chenru finished giving orders to the man in gray robe, there were still many people fleeing here. He narrowed his eyes, as if he had discovered something.

He clenched his hand holding the folding fan slightly, and when the other person passed by, he quietly took out a silver needle and stabbed him, but quickly put the needle away.

He curled his lips and looked at the other person's gradually receding back, feeling infinite sneer in his heart.

It seems that the gains from this trip are not small.

Governor Jiang was already overwhelmed by the affairs of Yuyang County, and was caught off guard by Nangong Ye's sudden visit. He had no choice but to straighten his official uniform and quickly walk out of the government office to greet him.

Outside the door, a tall brown horse was riding on it, wearing a crescent-colored brocade robe embroidered with bamboo patterns using black silk, which made it look even more elegant. The jade pendant on the belt showed the extraordinary status of its owner. His deep eyes did not show too many emotional ups and downs, but they exuded a chilling aura of oppression everywhere.

"See His Royal Highness the Regent!"

Governor Jiang and the constables behind him hurriedly paid their respects to Nangong Ye on his horse, but he couldn't help but start various ideological struggles in his heart.

After all, Nangong Ye represents His Majesty, and now he comes to him. Could it be that His Majesty blames him for not reporting the situation in Yuyang County in time?

Thinking of this, Governor Jiang felt a layer of cold sweat on his back even in this hot weather, and he was in a state of panic.

"Well, let's go in."

Nangong Ye nodded expressionlessly, jumped off the horse, handed the reins to the constable beside him, and walked into the government office first.

Governor Jiang couldn't figure out what Nangong Ye was thinking, so he had to follow him.

The sunlight shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves onto the ground, and as the breeze blows, it shatters the light spots all over the ground. The surroundings are so quiet that one almost thinks they are in a deserted place, and occasionally the sound of swallowing saliva can be heard.

Nangong Ye stood in the courtyard, looked at the surrounding garden scenery, then retracted his gaze and looked at the governor Jiang behind him and said slowly: "What is the crime according to the laws of Yan State for not reporting the knowledge? Governor Jiang, why don't you tell me?"

"I know my crime!!!"

Governor Jiang's heart skipped a beat as he felt Nangong Ye's vague gaze on him. More beads of sweat broke out on his head. The pressure from his superior made his knees go weak. He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to admit his guilt.

"Oh? What crime did Governor Jiang commit?"

"I should not have known the truth but failed to report it. I failed to report the situation in Yuyang County to the emperor in time. I am willing to be punished!!"

Nangong Ye then retracted his gaze and continued, "What's the situation now?"

"Fortunately, the princess was present, and the people who remained in Yuyang County were treated."

Speaking of this, Governor Jiang felt that this was the luckiest time in his life, otherwise he would not have enough heads to chop off.

"Well, keep talking."

"I have also sent detectives to chase the people who escaped from Yuyang County. We will definitely not let them get close to Zhaoyuan City."

Nangong Ye retracted his gaze, his tone still calm. He glanced at Governor Jiang and said, "With me, there is no such thing as a second chance. You can take care of yourself."

"Yes!"

After Governor Jiang sent Nangong Ye out of the government office, he waited for them to leave on horseback before he could help but sigh. His back was already soaked, but he had no time to change clothes and hurried to prepare manpower.

Nangong Ye did not leave Penang, but rode on horseback to Yuyang County. There were still people along the way, but there was more or less a hint of sadness on the faces of the people.

The closer they got to Yuyang County, the more deserted the streets seemed. There was a hint of coldness in Nangong Ye's eyes. He pursed his lips, tightened the reins, and quickened his pace into Yuyang County.

They stopped in front of an inn. You had been there for quite some time. He recognized the owner of the tall brown horse at a glance and hurried forward to hold the reins.

"Master, now all the people in Yuyang County who have not received treatment have left the county. Princess Kangle and the miracle doctor have already prescribed medicine for the remaining people. I have asked the other brothers to rush over and stop those people."

"Well, where are Princess Kang Le and her group now?"

After Nangong Ye got off the horse, he straightened his clothes, looked at You and asked.

"In the house near the red-red fruit tree in front."

"Let's go."

After Xue Zhiyu fed the medicine in her hand to the woman beside her, she stood up and rubbed her shoulders. She saw that the woman's face finally had some color and the original pattern seemed to be disappearing.

Mo Chenru was also helping on the side, and naturally noticed the changes in the woman, and admired Mu Xingchen even more.

It seems that his trip was really worthwhile!

Mu Xingchen also came in at this time, sat beside the woman and felt her pulse, then slowly said, "You're much better now. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to regulate your body."

"Okay, okay, thank you very much, Doctor Mu!"

"You're welcome. Have a good rest and we won't disturb you any more."

After explaining everything to the other people, they headed towards the inn.

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Xue Zhiyu always felt that the closer she got to the inn, the more she could feel that sight, but when she raised her head to look over there, the sight disappeared.

Xianxian was still very energetic. She looked around and was curious about everything around her.

This place is a little different from Zhaoyuan City. It is somewhat similar to the Western Regions, especially some of the clothing and incense.

Inside the inn, it was the first time that the innkeeper encountered a man who looked like he was not easy to mess with, especially the man among them who was wearing a crescent-colored brocade robe.

He couldn't help swallowing his saliva, walked over carefully, and asked with a smile: "Sir, do you want to stay overnight or have a meal?"

"stay."

"Okay, please follow me, sir. It's in the innermost room upstairs. It's the coolest room here."

Nangong Ye nodded, followed the shopkeeper upstairs and went into the room.

You signaled to the other brothers with his eyes, and they nodded in understanding. Only then did he catch up with Nangong Ye again.

After the shopkeeper opened the door, he saw that Nangong Ye did not seem to be as difficult as he had imagined, so he could not help but talk to himself.

Nangong Ye walked to the window and several figures soon appeared in his sight. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the plain color in the front.

It is the hottest time of the day. There is a layer of sweat on her fair face, and her cheeks are as if painted with the finest rouge, which makes her face look even whiter and more rosy. Her clear eyes seem to be washed by a trickle of spring water. She looks around with a sweet smile, which makes people fall in love with her.

When Xue Zhiyu looked up, he retracted his gaze, looked at the shopkeeper and smiled slightly, "Thank you for your hard work. I am very satisfied with this room."

After he finished speaking, You on the side quickly took out the silver and handed it to the shopkeeper, then pulled him downstairs while talking.

When the shopkeeper was taken away, he was still a little confused, but when he saw You take out the bag of silver, his eyes lit up and he smiled so hard that his teeth showed.

"Okay, okay, as long as this guest is satisfied, I won't bother you any more. Come find me if you need anything."
