Chapter 520 Eggs

Chapter 520 Eggs
Looking at Ji Xuan's actions, Lu Yuanzhi's gaze relaxed, then he raised his head and looked in the direction of Kewusi.

"Ah."

He looked relaxed, as if he had figured something out, and he nodded and said no more.

"hehe."

Seeing Lu Yuanzhi's thoughtful look, Ji Xuan smiled faintly, raised his arm and said:

"If nothing unexpected happens, your uncle also thinks so. Okay, stop talking so much. Let someone prepare some medicinal herbs. I will clean the meridians of the two little guys."

When Lu Yuanzhi heard this, he frowned and asked:

"Will the origin be lost?"

He knew that Mr. Ji's martial arts essence might not be able to withstand such destruction.

"That won't happen." Ji Xuan shook his head calmly, and said with a smile:
"It's just a little help for two little kids, it's not that serious, go ahead and buy it."

"In that case, I'll go."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded.

"Well, it's better if you go buy it yourself, so that no one can take advantage of you."

Ji Xuan warned calmly.

If the medicinal materials were tampered with by someone, Lu Yuanzhi and his two kids would be in danger.

"Of course I don't have to."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded cautiously. As a martial artist, he naturally understood that martial arts was extremely dangerous and that one could be doomed if not careful.

"Go."

……

Hai Wuyang walked towards home with a cold look in his eyes. He didn't even get in the carriage, but directly practiced Confucian and Taoist methods.

"father."

As soon as he saw his uncle, Hai Wuyang called out lightly.

The uncle was sitting at home at the time. When he heard the voice, he knew that his son had returned home, so he slowly raised his head and looked towards Hai Wuyang.

When their eyes met, the uncle immediately noticed something was wrong. He frowned and asked:
"What happened? Why are you so aggressive?"

Of course he understood his own son.

He couldn't hide his temper in front of me.

If something wasn't dissatisfied with him, he would never show such an expression.

Hai Wuyang took a deep breath, raised his head and asked calmly:
"Dad, I just went to the Duke of Beiguo's Mansion."

My uncle’s brows furrowed even more.

In the past, this child would address his nephew as "Big Brother."

If I had to say anything, I would just say "I went to visit my elder brother."

This stiff and distant address immediately made the uncle wonder if there was some rift between the two brothers.

"Have you been bullied?" The uncle calmly threw out the fishing rod in his hand, saw the fish float swaying gently, and raised his head to look at the sea to see that everything was fine.

Hai Wuyang shook his head expressionlessly: "I met Ji Xuan."

The uncle's hand trembled slightly, and he frowned and looked at Hai Wuyang, his tone was somewhat flat:

"You are not in charge of the affairs of the imperial court. Go back to the academy."

He didn't want Hai Wuyang to be involved in the affairs of the court.

In his opinion, the path he wants to take is either success or prosperity for the world.

Either you fail or you lose your head.

Hai Wuyang is a great scholar and doesn't get close to me. If he really reaches a point where he is beyond help, there will be someone who can save his life.

"I just want to ask one question."

Hai Wuyang did not leave, but went the other way and sat down next to his uncle:
"Are you still familiar with your past aspirations?"

But my uncle ignored me and just kept collecting his fishing rod.

No one spoke, the wind was not strong, and there were only quiet ripples on the surface of the river.

“There are some things you shouldn’t ask.”

My uncle looked at the bait in his hand seriously, without giving a direct answer. He just put the bait on his hook and threw the fishing line into the water, causing ripples to form gently.

"Haha, this is not asked by me, but by everyone in the world."

Hai Wuyang smiled, but there seemed to be a hint of disappointment in his smile, and he was even a little unwilling to look at his father's expression.

"Everyone in the world..."

There was a daze in my uncle's eyes, as if he wanted to stuff the entire world into his eyes.

"No matter what, this world still belongs to everyone in the world."

The uncle smiled, turned around and looked at Hai Wuyang seriously, and suddenly asked a very abrupt question:

"Want to enter the court?"

Hai Wuyang's hand paused. Although there was no expression on his face, he felt that his limbs were somewhat at a loss.

He didn't understand why his father said that.

For a moment, Hai Wuyang stood there without saying a word.

My uncle glanced at him and turned his gaze back to the calm water surface:
"I know that you have made some achievements in Confucianism and have become what people call a great scholar..."

My uncle's voice was very calm, without any emotion, and he continued in a narrative tone:
"Although I don't know what's so magical about it, I do know one thing: even a god wouldn't be able to understand something without experiencing it."

"It's time for you to enter the court and try to walk the path of caring for the people yourself."

Having said this, the uncle slowly stood up, looking at Hai Wuyang who was still stunned, he said calmly:
"I won't give you any help. Everything depends on you to figure it out."

After saying that, he left and headed towards his house.

Only Hai Wuyang was left standing there, somewhat confused.

……

"I bought the herbs."

Lu Yuanzhi descended from the sky carrying two packages.

The servants of the Duke of Beiguo's Mansion have also become accustomed to the Duke's elusive appearances.

Lu Yuanzhi ignored the servant and walked excitedly towards Ji Xuan.

At this time, Ji Xuan was looking at the two children lying on the table in front of him with interest.

The one on the left is Lu Yuanzhi’s eldest son, Lu Hongli, born in Changle.

The one on the right is Bai Qingying’s son, Lu Hongshu.

Ji Xuan's big hands wandered over the naked bodies of the two children.

While touching the bones, he teased the two dolls with a smile.

"Cackle, cluck, cluck~"

The two little kids were giggling because of Dou, and the touch of the big hands made them feel safe.

"How to say?"

Lu Yuanzhi put the medicine on the table and looked at Ji Xuan expectantly.

"Hong Li and Hong Shu are both good."

Ji Xuan nodded with a smile, looked at the herbs Lu Yuanzhi had placed on the table and asked:

"Why only buy so little?"

Ji Xuan told Lu Yuanzhi that menstrual cleansing for a baby cannot be done overnight and requires a long-term approach with the use of medicinal herbs.

Children from poor families do not have this condition and can only rely on natural growth. When they reach the appropriate age, they will hire a martial arts master to teach them.

Wealthy families usually invite martial artists to use medicinal herbs to slowly improve the child's meridians and bones when the child is just one year old, making the child more suitable for martial arts training.

"Your grandson is practicing martial arts, so naturally he has to be a bit extravagant. I bought only top-quality medicinal herbs. Although there are many herbal medicine shops in the city, only these ones meet the requirements. I searched all the herbal medicine shops in the city to find these."

Hearing Lu Yuanzhi's words, Ji Xuan glanced at Lu Yuanzhi:
"Did you buy it at the pharmacy?"

Lu Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment. He thought that he had done nothing wrong, and asked doubtfully:

"To buy medicine...where else can I go if not to the pharmacy?"

Ji Xuan lowered his head and continued to tease the two children. His voice floated into Lu Yuanzhi's ears:

"The medicinal materials in Pei Yinlang's storehouse are all of the best quality. Why do you have to go to the pharmacy to buy them? It's not so pretentious to go to a distant place instead of a nearby one."

affectation??
The corner of Lu Yuanzhi's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly:

"Didn't you teach me not to take bribes and abuse the power of law, or to seek personal gain by taking advantage of my position?"

Ji Xuan paused and said calmly:
"I have worked hard for the country, so how can it be considered corruption and abuse of power to find some light things? Besides, it's not like I'm not paying the government. What's wrong? Do you want to take it for free?" Lu Yuanzhi waved his hand quickly:
"No, no, I don't even care about that little bit of money."

Ever since he plundered the collection of King Yu in Hangzhou, he has had no concept of money.

Moreover, with Chunhua managing the mansion, the shops and businesses under the Duke of Beiguo's mansion are growing bigger and bigger, and it is not uncommon to talk about the huge amount of money they make every day.

After all, Liu Fengnian's family is there to guide him in business, so he can make money in any field he chooses.

"hehe."

Ji Xuan chuckled. He was not surprised by Lu Yuanzhi's big talk. It was impossible for an official to be poor if he reached this level.

No, someone will try every means to put it in your hands.

The young man from the Liu family yesterday was a living example.

"Get me the herbs."

Ji Xuan was unable to free his hands for a moment, so he glanced at Lu Yuanzhi and motioned him to come over to help.

Lu Yuanzhi was very smart. He ran over quickly, picked up the herbs, unpacked them and put them into the medicine furnace next to him.

"Don't worry."

Ji Xuan stretched out his hand to stop him, then frowned and looked at the medicinal herbs that Lu Yuanzhi was holding.

"what is this?"

He turned over the herbs and saw an imperceptible tiny white dot on them.

"I do not know."

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at the white spot and didn't care. He was about to remove the small white spot but was stopped by Ji Xuan.

He said coldly:

"Eggs of the autumn bug."

"what?"

Lu Yuanzhi was stunned for a moment.

"Qiuqing insect." Ji Xuan's face became solemn. He slowly took the insect eggs off the medicinal materials and said with a very cold look:

"This insect is born in spring and hatches in winter. It likes medicinal herbs. It is extremely rare and almost never seen. But if you do see it, it will drill into the human body... and then suck the human blood for a living. It can remain dormant for more than ten years before dying..."

At this point, Ji Xuan's eyes narrowed, and his tone was very dangerous, and the whole hall turned several degrees colder:

"After death, the insect corpse will turn into rotten powder, which will flow into the body through the blood. Once it erupts, it will corrode everything. The living will also be corroded by this powder while they are sleeping and dissipate between heaven and earth."

"Hi~"

After hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi trembled all over, and then a surge of anger burst out from his heart.

He stared at Ji Xuan intently.

Ji Xuan said coldly: "No matter where they bought it, arrest everyone!!"

"Uh-huh!!!"

Lu Yuanzhi flew directly into the air and disappeared in the Duke's Mansion in an instant.

……

Suzaku Street.

"Bang!!"

Lu Yuanzhi's figure "smashed" directly to the ground, instantly shattering the two blue bricks on the ground into powder, attracting the attention of half the people on the street.

He ignored these gazes and just focused his eyes on the herbal medicine shop in front of him called "Huichuntang".

"Surround them all!!!"

A rather nervous voice sounded, and a group of Pei Yinlang's men came here breathlessly.

"Mr. Lu."

Li Jin came to Lu Yuanzhi's side.

"Is everyone else ready too?"

Lu Yuanzhi looked at Li Jin coldly and asked.

"I went there, and now all the pharmacies in the city are cordoned off!"

Li Jin had never seen Mr. Lu look like this before, so he answered hurriedly and looked at him cautiously.

"Ah."

Lu Yuanzhi nodded expressionlessly and looked towards the "Huichuntang" medicine shop.

At this time, all the guys in Huichuntang were stunned where they were, staring blankly at the group of "Tiger Lords" who surrounded them.

In their world, the word "Tiger Lord" is only worthy of being viewed from afar, as those are the great men who are high and mighty.

But now they saw a whole team of Tiger Lords...

What’s even worse is that all these tiger masters looked at the young man with fear…

The guys were all horrified.

Lu Yuanzhi had a blank expression on his face. He came to the Huichun Hall staff and asked:
"Do you recognize me?"

The guys all looked at him blankly and shook their heads.

Only one guy suddenly slapped his forehead, and he hurried to Lu Yuanzhi:

"Master! It's you! You were just buying medicine at the pharmacy, and I packed it for you."

The guy looked no more than fifteen or sixteen years old. He looked smart and spoke fluently.

Lu Yuanzhi glanced at him calmly:
"Do you remember what medicine I bought from you?"

The waiter looked at the group of Pei Yinlang behind Lu Yuanzhi tremblingly, swallowed his saliva, and did not dare to hesitate:

"One ounce of yellow autumn leaves, three ounces of green martial arts flowers... and four ounces of... willow leaves."

After hearing this, Lu Yuanzhi nodded calmly, and then said to Li Jin:
"Take all the people in the herbal medicine shop back and put them in the imperial prison."

The guy was stunned.

No, what do you mean?

"Yes."

Li Jin was only responsible for following orders. He looked at these guys, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he waved his hand and led people directly into the pharmacy to arrest anyone he saw.

Everyone was confused by the aggressive Pei Yinlangs.

They don't even know what's going on.

"Spare my life!"

"It's unfair, Lord Tiger. I haven't committed any crime!"

"........."

All of them were voices begging for mercy.

Even the shopkeeper and the doctors were arrested.

Li Jin doesn't care about anything. He will catch anyone he sees. If they cooperate, he will tie them up. If they don't cooperate, he will knock them out and take them away.

"Mr. Lu, there were thirty-two people in total, and they were all captured."

Lu Yuanzhi looked expressionlessly at the trembling shopkeeper in the crowd and asked:

"How many people are there in Huichun Hall?"

"Thirty-two."

The shopkeeper was an old man in his fifties. Seeing Lu Yuanzhi's extremely stern look, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

"Oh."

Lu Yuanzhi slowly came to the shopkeeper and asked:

"Do you know who I am?"

"Know...know."

It was the first time for the shopkeeper to see Lu Yuanzhi's face so closely. He swallowed and said tremblingly:

"You are Mr. Lu."

"Ah."
