The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn - Chapter 392

Chapter 392 News returned

 When they saw his reaction, Sun Wen and Mr. Zhang couldn’t understand it.

 “The prefect of Xuzhou is trying to hide the matter!”

 “Don’t worry, Mr. Zhang.”

Sun Wen whispered.

 Lao Zhang looked at Sun Wen and lowered his voice, “Do you have any ideas?”

Not far away, someone saw them talking together and came over.

Sun Wen had no choice but to distance himself from Mr. Zhang, but he still took advantage of the opportunity to give Mr. Zhang a look to reassure Mr. Zhang.

 The village was surrounded and areas were divided inside.

 One side is where the sick villagers stay, and the other side is where the villagers who are not sick stay.

 Lao Zhang sighed, he couldn’t care about this now.

 He turned around and went back to his original house.

Wangchen was also wrapped in white cloth and was diagnosing and treating patients.

 “What’s going on outside?”

Seeing his friend come in, Wangchen asked subconsciously.

When she noticed her friend’s ugly face, she realized something and put down the medicinal ingredients she was grinding.

Walking to his friend’s side, Wangchen looked out the door.

Men in official attire could be vaguely seen pushing the villagers.

 “People from the government?”

“Um.”

 Lao Zhang responded, “The situation is not very good.”

 “Where are Sun Wen and the others?”

 “He was also detained and cannot go back for a while.”

 Wangchen was not surprised by Mr. Zhang’s answer.

 She turned around and continued to grind the medicinal materials, “That’s all we can do.”

“Um.”

 Lao Zhang let out a deep breath.

The prefect of Xuzhou thought that by surrounding the village, he could prevent the plague from spreading. It was ridiculous.

Half of the people in this village have been infected with the plague. Before the onset of the disease, there were many people traveling to and from the village or entering the county town.

 The more you conceal it, the more serious the consequences will be.

Now, he can only place his hope on Sun Wen and Su Leyun.

 I hope Sun Wen can send the news back.

 At night, Sun Wen quietly came out of the house.

 Blowed a whistle at a place.

 Soon, a homing pigeon flew over.

Sun Wen stuffed the written note into the bamboo tube. At the moment he released the carrier pigeon, someone who heard the noise ran over.

 But there were only fallen leaves on the ground, and there was no one around.

The man scratched his head and muttered: “Did you hear that wrong?”

 After saying that, he turned and left.

Sun Wen ran down from the tree and looked into the air. He could no longer see the homing pigeons flying far away.

 He stood for a moment, then turned and left.

 I received the news from Sun Wen in the early morning of the next day.

The homing pigeon flew directly into Chaohua Xiaozhu and woke up the green willows keeping watch.

 Cuiliu stepped forward, took out the note from the bamboo tube, and released the carrier pigeon.

Cuiliu’s face changed drastically when he saw the words written on it.

Ignoring the time, she hurriedly ran into the house.

 “Miss, no, something happened!”

Su Leyun was awakened by the sound of Cuiliu, but she also knew that Cuiliu would not wake her up for no reason.

Su Leyun’s face turned ugly after taking the note handed over by Cuiliu.

Lian Xin ran into the house without even putting on half of her sleeves.

“What’s wrong?”

 Mother Zhang was also awakened.

 “I’m going to see my grandfather.”

Su Leyun quickly stood up, and with Cui Liu and Lian Xin waiting on him, he changed his clothes and hurried out.

Sun Mansion’s study room is brightly lit.

Sun Shao, Sun Changping, and Su Ye were all standing in the study.

“Yun’er, is this news true?”

Sun Shao shook the note held between his fingers and asked.

 Sun Changping and Su Ye looked at it with heavy expressions, having the same problem as Sun Shao.

Su Leyun nodded, “This is the news from Sun Wen. He is now with Mr. Zhang.”

 “Such big news, the prefect of Xuzhou…”

Sun Shao did not continue, “Yun’er, come with me to the palace.”

 This matter cannot be delayed.

If it is true, once the plague is allowed to spread, the consequences will be unimaginable.

 “Grandpa, I’ll go too.”

Su Ye glanced at Su Leyun worriedly. He was afraid that his sister would go to the palace to meet the saint. If she was nervous and made a mistake, he could still help her.

Sun Shao glanced at Su Ye and said, “Okay, you will come with us. Changping, you will be in charge of the house.”

 “Yes, father.”

Sun Changping responded.

Soon, the three of them got on their horses and went to the palace.

 In an emergency, taking a carriage will only waste time. Although Su Leyun had been to the racecourse several times, Su Ye was still worried if she was asked to ride alone, so the brother and sister rode the same horse.

 In this way, we can rush to the palace as soon as possible.

　　After passing the palace gate, you can no longer ride a horse.

Sun Shao walked in front, walking very fast. Su Ye was afraid that Su Leyun wouldn’t be able to keep up, so he slowed down.

Hurrying along slowly and hurriedly, I didn’t fall too far behind.

As early as when Sun Shao entered the palace, someone had spread the word.

Eunuch Wan hesitated again and again, but reported it personally to Emperor Jianwen who had gone to bed.

Although he didn’t know what urgent matter there was that warranted such a rush, Wan Gonggong also knew Sun Shao’s temperament. If it wasn’t really an urgent matter, he wouldn’t have to be so anxious.

 Emperor Jianwen was woken up by Wan Gonggong, with a somewhat angry look on his face.

After learning about the situation, he calmed down a little.

 “Change my clothes.”

With the service of the palace maids, Emperor Jianwen changed his clothes and went to the imperial study.

 In the past few days, Emperor Jianwen had been busy for a long time with matters concerning King An and the Turks.

Finally I had time to rest for a while, but things happened again.

Sun Shao handed the note forward and asked Su Leyun to explain a few words to Emperor Jianwen.

“Your Majesty, please make a decision early.”

“What is the name of Mr. Zhang you are talking about?”

 Emperor Jianwen asked a strange question.

Su Leyun was stunned for a moment, and at Sun Shao’s signal, he replied: “Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang’s name is Zhang Youliang.”

 “Zhang Youliang…”

 Emperor Jianwen muttered thoughtfully, with a flash of light in his eyes.

“Eunuch Wan, please pass on the order and send someone to Xuzhou to conduct a strict investigation.”

“yes.”

 The father-in-law responded and left.

But I felt a little panicked. The situation was very similar to that of fifteen years ago.

 Fifteen years ago, the plague in the capital came from the neighboring towns.

Is it possible that we are going to make the same mistake again?

 Emperor Jianwen’s order was quickly issued.

  But what is faster than the order is the speed at which the plague spreads.

 In just one night, the plague was discovered in several villages.

 Even in the city of Xuzhou, the situation was discovered.

The prefect of Xuzhou hurriedly left the city with his family and gold and silver treasures. Before he had gone a few miles, he was caught by people sent by the imperial court.

 The capital received the news, and the people from the imperial hospital were also sent out by Emperor Jianwen.

Su Leyun was really worried about his master and Mr. Zhang, so he quietly left the capital with Lian Xin and Cui Liu.

 It is less than half an hour away from Xuzhou.

Lian Xin put down the curtain and looked at Su Leyun with Cui Liu, who closed his eyes and rested.

 There was worry and uneasiness in his eyes.

“If you are afraid, you can go back.”

Su Leyun opened her eyes. She didn’t blame Lian Xin and Cuiliu for saying this, but she meant it sincerely.

 She is confident that she can protect them, but it is normal for Lian Xin and Cui Liu to be uneasy.
