"It seems that I have been negligent in this matter." Luo Yuanzhong said and looked outside the house. "Come here, gather a team of people and follow the brother named Lu to Wuxi Town to rescue Dr. Chu."
"yes."
Seeing that it would take time to gather the people outside, Lu Xinghe clasped his fists towards Luo Yuanzhong again.
"One more thing, if my wife is fine in the end and Mr. Luo wants her to continue serving Tongzhi County, I hope you can get her involved in civil disaster relief as soon as possible, so as to better ensure her safety."
Luo Yuanzhong frowned slightly.
"It's only a matter of time before you go to heaven to hear it, but how do you know that if you do this, the people in the dark will definitely not worry about her life?"
Lu Xinghe suppressed the worry in his heart and looked levelly at Luo Yuanzhong.
"With the attention of the court and the support of the people, people in the dark will have more worries. Furthermore, although she is a commoner, she is not completely helpless. As long as those people do a little investigation, they will not dare to touch her easily."
Luo Yuanzhong had a look of disbelief on his face, "From what you say, is there anyone behind Dr. Chu?"
As far as he knew, Dr. Chu was just a female doctor with superb folk medical skills.
She came from a peasant family and married into a peasant family, so she had no one to rely on.
"Of course!" Lu Xinghe answered with absolute certainty.
After listening to his words, Luo Yuanzhong had to carefully consider Lu Xinghe's proposal.
Since the person behind Dr. Chu can make people in high positions in the court fear him, his small role is naturally not worth mentioning.
After thinking for a while, Luo Yuanzhong looked at Lu Xinghe.
"Okay, I promise you, as soon as I get the news that Dr. Chu is fine, I will rush 800 miles away to report what happened here to Heaven."
Lu Xinghe clasped his hands in his fists, "Then I'll thank Mr. Luo first."
…
Xu Heng led Lu Yufang back to the Xu family. After explaining his intention to his parents, they did not object to him taking his servants to rescue Chu Yue.
After all, she saved the entire Tongzhi County.
But when Mrs. Xu saw Xu Heng and Lu Yufang riding on the same horse, surprise flashed across her face.
My son has always been devoted to books and rarely hangs out with women. He usually only interacts with men. Nowadays, it is rare for a girl to be so close to him.
The scene in front of her was really more strange to her than the smoke coming out of the ancestral grave.
After Xu Heng led the team away, Mrs. Xu turned back to look at Mr. Xu with an aunty smile on her face, "Master, have you seen it?"
Xu Yuanwai put the book in his hand on the coffee table next to him, with a look of confusion on his face.
"What did you see?"
Mrs. Xu pointed in the direction of the door of the house, "That girl who is sitting on the same horse as our son."
Xu Yuanwai said, "She seems pretty handsome."
"It's not a matter of being pretty. I'm wondering if our son's peach blossoms are blooming." Mrs. Xu said, clasping her hands together and looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. "Bodhisattva has blessed me, and my son has been on blind dates many times." It’s all unsatisfactory, I hope he can marry a good wife soon, so that I can have a fat grandson soon.”
Looking at Mrs. Xu's nagging expression, Mr. Xu frowned slightly.
"Why do you think you worry about these things all day long? As good as Heng'er is, we will find a wife sooner or later. Fortunately, we only had this one when we were young, otherwise you would have endless worries all day long."
It's not that Mrs. Xu didn't want to have a baby before, it's just that she hurt her body after giving birth to Xu Heng, and she couldn't get pregnant for whatever reason.
Hearing Yuanwai Xu's words, Mrs. Xu had a trace of regret on her face.
"I would like to have more children. If God doesn't give me a chance, there is nothing I can do."
After Xu Yuanwai heard this, he looked at her with some distress.
"It's done, don't think about the past. Since you want to have a grandson, why don't you go and ask about that girl quickly?"
When Mrs. Xu heard this, she immediately became interested.
"Hey, OK, I'll ask someone to inquire about it."
After saying that, he hurriedly went out.
…
Lu Xinghe led the people from the county government to meet with the servants led by Xu Heng, a foreign language in the county town.
A group of people rode on tall horses and ran wildly on the road to Wuxi Town, with dust flying behind the team.
Because the speed was too fast, Lu Yufang sat on the horse in front of Xu Heng with a look of horror on her face. She leaned over and hugged the horse's neck so much that she didn't dare to open her eyes.
Xu Heng glanced at Lu Yufang, who was frightened and turned pale. He felt both distressed and funny at the same time.
This girl is really stupid, her face turned pale with fright, but she didn't say a word.
"If you hold the horse's neck like this, the horse will feel uncomfortable."
Lu Yufang closed her eyes and said, "But if you don't hold me, I'm afraid..."
After hearing this, Xu Heng let out a sigh and stopped on the side of the road. He turned over and dismounted, changed positions with Lu Yufang, and put her hand on his waist.
"Hold tight, we're going to catch up with the team in front."
After Lu Yufang nodded with a somewhat unnatural look on her face, Xu Heng clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and the horse rushed out like an arrow from its string.
At first, Lu Yufang didn't hold Xu Heng's waist tightly and almost fell back.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and grabbed Xu Heng's belt to hug him tightly at the critical moment, so as not to fall.
Suddenly being approached by a delicate body, Xu Heng's figure froze, and his whole body was frozen on the horse.
Lu Yufang seemed to feel that it was inappropriate to hold him like this. After getting used to the horse's speed, she kept some distance from Xu Heng.
She blushed and looked at Xu Heng in front of her, "Xu...Brother Xu, I just...didn't mean it."
Xu Heng raised the corners of his lips, showing a hint of tenderness that he didn't even notice.
"No problem, drive!"
The speed increased again, Lu Yufang was unsteady, and she hugged Xu Heng tightly again in fear.
Her cheeks were hot, and she was thinking in her heart that if a woman who had not left the court was cuddling with a man, if someone found out, would she not be able to get married in the future?
But if the person you marry is...
Lu Yufang shook her head. She still had to find Yueyue. What was she thinking about at this time?
Moreover, Brother Xu's family background is so superior, how can she reach such a high level?
Because of this realization, a trace of melancholy flashed through Lu Yufang's heart.
"Brother Xu, can we find Yueyue?"
Xu Heng hurriedly chased the team in front while saying, "Miss Chu is a good match and is so smart. She will definitely be fine."
"Yueyue has always been smart."
So she'll be fine?
The mountain road to Wuxi Town was high and low, and Xu Heng's riding speed was also fast and slow. Lu Yufang always hugged Xu Heng and let him go. In the end, she simply didn't let go. She hugged Xu Heng's waist and put her cheek Attached to his back.
The originally uneasy heart slowly calmed down.
…
After a while, Xu Heng caught up with Lu Xinghe.
"Brother Lu, I know where we are separated from Miss Chu. You follow me."
The riding speed was much faster than the carriage, and soon the group came to the place where Xu Heng and Lu Yufang were kicked off the carriage by Chu Yue.
Lu Xinghe got off the horse and led the horse along the carriage wheel mark on the road.
