"Cousin? Isn't that Yang Yongxian?"
Ms. Liu on the side was eating melons. There were so many melons today, one after another, and the melons were big and sweet, which made her enjoy the meal.
Especially when she heard Hongmei mentioning Yang Yongxian twice in a row, Liu couldn't help but think about Hongmei's words and went forward to ask.
"Hongmei, are you mistaken? How could it be Yang Yongxian?"
"He left Wanghai County a long time ago and went to Huguang County. How could he return to Qingshui Town?"
"Oh, by the way, Hongmei, you have never met Yang Yongxian before, right? How do you recognize him?"
Hongmei was really convinced when she heard Liu's question.
"I'm not a coward, a blind person or a fool or a deaf person. My cousin came to our shop the evening before yesterday, and Dabai and I entertained him together."
"Dabai said yes, is it still false?"
Mrs. Liu was stunned. This was true. It was impossible for Dabai to lie to anyone, such as Hongmei, the person beside her. Moreover, Dabai was henpecked, which was obvious to everyone.
If he wasn't henpecked, he wouldn't have treated Yang Huamei like this after marrying Hongmei.
The last time Yang Huamei had a leg injury for so long, she didn't even see Hongmei, the eldest daughter-in-law, show up, let alone wait for her for a long time...
Hongmei was angry and anxious, "I said Yang Yongxian is Yang Yongxian. Fourth aunt, can you please stop interrupting me? Human life is at stake!"
Ms. Liu grinned, "I wasn't the one who detained Dabai, and it wasn't me who put people's lives at risk..."
"Shut up, shut up!" This time, it was Yang Huamei who yelled at Ms. Liu.
Mrs. Liu curled her lips again, took a few steps to the side, and said no more.
And Yang Huamei also pulled Hongmei up from the ground: "Let's go to Lao Yang's house with me!"
Soon, Yang Huazhong and Yang Ruoqing all received the "urgent summons" from Old Yangtou at the same time and rushed to the east room of Old Yang's family.
In the east room at this time, Yang Huamei had already cried in Tan's arms, "Mom, how can this be done? Damn it, Yongxian, what did you do to my family's Dabai? This is asking for brotherhood. Is it disabled...wuwuwu..."
While Mrs. Tan hugged Yang Huamei and caressed her back, she also scolded Yang Yongxian for being nothing!
Hongmei, with her big belly, sat next to their mother and daughter, holding a handkerchief in her hand and wiping away tears.
At the Eight Immortals table, Lao Yangtou, Yang Yongqing, Cao Bamei, and Zhao Liuer are all there.
As for why Yang Huaming and Yang Yongzhi are not there? Because they went to the Taoist temple to work during the day.
The twelfth lunar month is coming soon, and when you enter the twelfth lunar month, you will enter the atmosphere of the New Year. More people come to the Taoist temple to burn incense and make wishes, so the affairs in the Taoist temple are even busier.
The Taoist temple is a long way away from here, so Old Yangtou didn't send anyone to call them.
When Yang Huazhong and Yang Ruoqing entered the east room, Lao Yang, who was smoking, pulled out the tobacco stick from his mouth, raised his head and said, "Everyone is here. Okay, don't cry. Let's talk about business with Lao San." Qing'er, tell me about it!"
Yang Huamei raised her head, wiped her tears, and tearfully told what happened between Dabai and Yang Yongxian.
What Yang Huamei said was the exact words Hongmei brought back, without missing a word.
"Hongmei said that Yongxian went to find Dabai in the shop the evening before yesterday, hoping that Dabai would join him in doing business together. Yongxian didn't say anything, so he asked Dabai to go to the inn where he was staying the next day to talk to him in detail. "
"But Dabai went and hasn't come back yet."
"Hongmei was worried and sent a man to look for him, but he was told that Dabai had left. Even after a night and a long time, there was still no sign of him..."
"Third brother, Qing'er, you have to help me, Dabai might be harmed by Yongxian!"
…
Yizhou.
At noon.
In a private room of a nearby restaurant.
Many plates have been placed on the table, containing various Yizhou specialty foods.
“Yizhou’s food is good, but it’s too spicy.”
Mickey ate for a while and took two sips of tea.
The climate here in Yizhou is humid, so the cuisine is spicy.
"I asked the cook to serve it slightly spicy." Zhang Tianyi touched his nose. He felt nothing, and deliberately asked the cook to lower the spiciness.
"Is this slightly spicy?"
Mickey couldn't help but widen her eyes.
Her already spicy tongue was almost numb. It was still slightly spicy... What would happen if it went further? It was hard for her to imagine.
"If you want something spicier, I can ask the chef to add seasonings." Zhang Tianyi smiled.
"No, this is enough. I can't bear the spicier ones." Mickey waved her hand.
After finishing the meal, Mi Qi washed her hands and went to the nearby box arranged by Zhang Tianyi.
There are comfortable soft couches, fruits, and a fragrant environment for people to rest.
In addition, this is an industry owned by Rongshan Village, and everyone has their own people inside and outside, so there is no need to worry about safety.
Therefore, when Mickey came here, he half-closed his eyes and looked sleepy.
"I have to say, I was wrong this time." Zhang Tianyi suddenly said seriously while eating the fruit.
"What do you say?" Mickey opened her eyes and asked.
"I had confidence in you from the beginning, but I think that treating those soldiers will not happen overnight. It will take a long time. Guarding Yizhou City also requires an updated plan..."
"But everything that happened this morning has overturned all my inner calculations. I admit that your plan is right. We can indeed catch the turtle in the jar."
Zhang Tianyi said seriously.
"After a long time, it turns out that you didn't agree with my idea at first."
Mickey said.
"Yes, I can't confront you or argue with you, so I am going to speak with facts and let you feel for yourself how difficult it is to treat thousands of soldiers."
Zhang Tianyi said.
"Is it really difficult? I don't think so." Mickey looked up.
"It's not difficult with you, but there's nothing we can say about it."
Zhang Tianyi really wanted to say something, this is because you are too perverted and different from ordinary people, but the words came to his lips but he couldn't say them out.
"This is all a trivial matter. Now I have treated hundreds of people, and the speed will increase in the future. In up to three days, the voodoo in the entire military camp can be eliminated. As long as the voodoo is eliminated, antibodies will appear in the body, and there will be no chance of getting it again. This kind of voodoo..."
Mickey said.
"I do believe this, but I'm worried about another thing." Zhang Tianyi frowned.
"What are you worried about? I'm here. If you have any problems, we can discuss them together." Mickey said.
"Now the voodoo in the military camp can be solved, but I am worried that those people in the Southern Wushu Cult are crazy and spread the voodoo outside. What if the people in the whole city are infected by voodoo?"
Zhang Tianyi frowned.
This has always been an unavoidable problem. In fact, Luo Fengtang and the others had already had similar ideas.
"There's nothing we can do about it. After a few days, I will spend some time developing a potion specifically for this kind of voodoo." Mickey said.
"Is it really possible to develop a potion?" Zhang Tianyi's eyes lit up.
"Of course, am I still going to lie to you? Look at those soldiers, they are so serious that they are almost dead, but they are still struggling to get up? So, you don't have to worry about this."
Mickey raised an eyebrow.
"That's because I'm hungry..." Zhang Tianyi said.
In the morning, there was indeed more than one soldier who struggled to get up immediately after the voodoo in his body was removed. The direction they rushed towards was the canteen.
This is a symbol of physical improvement. Doctors generally know that once a patient regains a good appetite and sleeps well, it means that the disease in the body has changed for the better.
If a person cannot sleep or eat, that person's condition will definitely worsen.
"By the way, the food problem must be solved. In the next three days, the soldiers will be given enough food and let them rest for three days. There will be a big battle waiting for them then." Mickey reminded.
"We don't have to worry about this. Li Ruili will take care of it. He is the real commander in chief. We are just a gangster in Rongshan." Zhang Tianyi smiled.
"An official or a bandit, in one thought, you were a bandit before, and now you are an official." Mi Qi said.
"It's still early. Who can say what will happen next."
Zhang Tianyi is not an ordinary gangster. He is educated, especially history books. He has read a lot. Similar cases can often be found in past history about various things that happened in the current dynasty.
Those heroes who initially received preferential treatment and were recruited by the imperial court were later tortured and killed by the imperial court. There have been some in all dynasties.
He trusts Luo Fengtang... but the situation in the Qi court is complicated. Luo Fengtang is just a general. He cannot represent the court, nor can he lead the court's "national policy." To put it bluntly, he does not trust the current emperor Qi Xingyun.
Except for Taizu, none of the emperors named Qi truly kept their word.
Moreover, it is absurd to pin one's destiny on the words and deeds of others.
"We'll talk about the rest later. Let's take care of things in the camp today."
Mickey said.
Zhang Tianyi's situation has nothing to do with her. She is only responsible to the emperor and her superiors. She has no control over other unnecessary matters and does not have the authority to do so.
"Take a rest and let's go again in the afternoon." Zhang Tianyi said.
Zhang Tianyi stood up and left, leaving the box to Mi Qi.
This is equivalent to the private space he found for Mickey, allowing Mickey to relax her body and mind, and truly rest here comfortably.
After Zhang Tianyi left, Mi Qi took out a secret letter from her sleeve.
This was sent to her recently by Yinwei. She had been busy in the morning and she couldn't get around to reading it.
Fortunately, the secret message is not top secret and needs to be opened immediately.
If she checks it later, it won't have bad consequences.
However, when she unfolded the letter and read it carefully, she couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"so fast."
The letter came from the north.
Luo Xingchen, who was originally scheduled to come to Yizhou, left early.
Judging by the time, Luo Xingchen and his party will be able to go straight down the river to Tianmen Pass about tomorrow.
The letter asked Mickey to arrange for someone to come over and greet him.
In this case, Mi Qi knew that this matter must be explained clearly to the Sheriff Wei Lanfeng.
With Luo Xingchen's current status, the only person who can welcome him is Wei Lanfeng himself. Others are not of a sufficient level and are not equal at all.
Besides, Luo Xingchen came as an imperial envoy to inspect the matter. This was because he had the emperor's orders and came for official business.
