Wang Shuyan had a good ear. When she was tired and tilted her body, she suddenly heard the movement behind her. She quickly stood up and said to Ji Xiaofuli who came in: "Master Ji."

Ji Xiao was stunned and quickly waved his hand: "Miss Wang, there is no need to address her with such honorifics. Just call me Shanzhang. Now I am just a Shanzhang's wife who teaches in the countryside."

He has always been curious about this Miss Wang. Ordinary women don't have this kind of vigor. How to describe it? Her temperament is a bit like a sword that can shine its sheath to kill the enemy in times of crisis.

He didn't know the scene of yesterday's riot, but the news he got from Guangrun was that a woman with a birthmark on her face led the Zhang Jiajun who was in charge of Guotong to capture and kill Cai Yong, and Tongzhou County was able to put an end to the chaos.

He was sure that the person he was talking about was Miss Wang.

King Qi is not very lucky. He has imperial talents but no imperial appearance. Young Master Bingyuan may be able to...

Wang Shuyan smiled: "Lishan is long."

Ji Xiao smiled and nodded slightly, poured the tea himself, and asked Li Guangrun to add more charcoal.

After taking the tea, Wang Shuyan blew it gently, took a few sips, and then asked, "I wonder if Mr. Shan knows the current situation in Kyoto?"

She is not one to sit still and wait for death. When chaos breaks out, she must be on guard.

Ji Xiao didn't hide it either, with a worried look on his face: "I have written a few letters to trustworthy people to inquire about the situation in Kyoto. The wind and snow have not stopped at the moment, and I don't know when I can send them out for a while."

Wang Shuyan was very direct: "Give it to me, I will find a way to send the letter out."

Ji Xiao was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "That's fine, I'm just worried about how to send it out."

Wang Shuyan smiled and said, "I have the jade pendant for mobilizing troops from Governor Zhang. I can ask the people at Guotong Waiting for help. It shouldn't be a problem."

Ji Xiao got up and went to the study to take out the letter and put it in Wang Shuyan's hands.

Wang Shuyan's smile froze slightly. How many letters were there? It was just a pile.

Before leaving, Ji Xiao suddenly asked: "Miss Wang, I wonder if the county magistrate has made proper arrangements for the common people who suffered yesterday's twists and turns?"

Wang Shuyan opened his mouth, shook his head and said: "At present, not yet."

Ji Xiao looked heartbroken. In desperation, he couldn't help but cough a few times. He couldn't stop coughing, and then scolded: "County Magistrate Gu is confused...it's all the trouble caused by the treacherous minister He Shen..."

puff!

A mouthful of bright red spit out.

There was a faint smell of blood filling the room.

Wang Shuyan looked stunned. He didn't expect Ji Xiao to be so excited.

Li Guangrun hurried over when he heard the commotion and called out to the courtyard on the right: "Doctor Ye, hurry up... Mr. Ye is coughing up blood again..."

Perhaps he was delayed by something, and Doctor Ye was delayed in coming.

Wang Shuyan decisively leaned Ji Xiao halfway on the chair and directly took someone's pulse. After a few breaths, his expression changed with horror: "Where should I put the medicine I asked Yuan Zheng to bring? Take it quickly, sir."

Ji Xiao's illness this time turned out to be tuberculosis!

Li Guangrun nodded fiercely, walked out a few steps, then turned back and asked Ji Xiao: "Sir, where is your medicine...?"

Ji Xiao gasped: "On the study case."

Li Guangrun ran out violently and bumped into Dr. Ye who was coming over. He gasped and told her that his husband was coughing up blood again.

Doctor Ye's expression suddenly changed, and he ran towards the main hall. Just as he was about to perform an acupuncture, he saw a girl tearing open Ji Xiao's clothes, picking acupuncture points on his chest and inserting acupuncture needles.

The movements are skillful and decisive, and the acupuncture points are carefully matched.

Doctor Ye knew at a glance that he was an expert, so he immediately swallowed back the curse words he wanted to say and waited aside.

Because, as expected, my husband’s cough subsided.

Ji Xiao looked at her with a slightly surprised expression, feeling that the knot in his chest had dissipated a lot and he felt much more comfortable.

The blood-stained lips parted: "Miss Wang is actually a doctor?"

Wang Shuyan twisted the iron needle, smiled at him and said teasingly: "Yes, Li Shanchang is very angry. You have to learn to control your temper and don't always get excited. After all, there are not many people who are not sober. They are hurt by stupid people." It’s not worth having too much body.”

It means that your old temper is a bit hot and you need to rein it in.

Doctor Ye felt deeply and nodded fiercely: "Miss Wang is right, but Mr. Wang just doesn't listen."

Ji Xiao blushed when he heard this and glared at Dr. Ye, "You are the only one who talks too much." When Li Guangrun delivered the medicine, Ji Xiao looked at Wang Shuyan with a thoughtful look on his face: "Do I still need to take medicine now that I'm better?"

Wang Shuyan looked at him deeply, expressionless: "It's okay if you don't eat."

Ji Xiao's expression was dark and relaxed.

Li Guangrun was anxious and was about to speak.

Wang Shuyan was caught off guard and said: "You will die faster."

Ji Xiao: "...I'll eat it."

Li Guangrun was choked and looked at each other with Doctor Ye, secretly happy that someone could finally control his husband's temper.

Ji Xiao's temper is actually not bad, but he gets really irritable after getting sick, and he doesn't take medicine properly. He only gets better after his illness.

Wang Shuyan looked at Ji Xiao who had taken the medicine obediently and reminded him: "Sir, this medicine is the heart-protecting pill I specially asked Yuan Zheng to send to you. It can relieve heart and lung boredom and cough. Have you never taken it once? "

That pulse... Tsk, as weak as a rookie.

Ji Xiao felt that the medicinal energy seemed to be working in his chest, and it seemed that a thousand knots were being loosened layer by layer, making him feel more and more comfortable.

Hearing Wang Shuyan's words, he said with an old face: "I forgot."

In fact, it's just not serious.

Wang Shuyan did not expose him, and reminded him again: "Take three pills a day, don't forget it. Only by living a hundred years can you fight against heaven and man. Sir, you have a bright will in the sky, which is hard to find in the world. How many people have been saved because of you?" Where there is life, there is hope."

The words made Ji Xiao feel a thousand waves in his heart, and his eyes were slightly moist: "Yes, if you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid of running out of firewood."

……

The next day, Magistrate Gu and Qi Tong pondered over it, and followed Zhao Qian's suggestion and posted another pension notice for the people. However, there were few pedestrians on the road, and not many people stopped to read it patiently.

Magistrate Gu gritted his teeth and didn't look at it. He could hear it if he sent someone to yell. He didn't believe that everyone was deaf.

The yamen servant roared so loudly that it was like being caught in cotton wool in the wind and snow.

Magistrate Gu ordered several government officials to yell at several wealthy families for an hour.

Butler Fu from the Guotong Marquis heard this, and after consulting Qiu, he quickly asked someone to carry several baskets of charcoal and sacks of grain onto Magistrate Gu's grain requisition carriage.

Some took the lead and others followed suit. A lot of grain and charcoal were collected for the carriage, and some gave money, but not much.

Magistrate Gu was overjoyed: "Hurry, hurry, hurry up and distribute them according to the list of victims."

The county magistrate looked at the grain charcoal piled up like a hill with some greed, and stammered: "Sir, the county government's charcoal is almost gone... How about... leaving some?"

County Magistrate Gu's eyes widened when he heard this, he raised his foot and kicked him, and cursed: "You are looking for death. There will be more if you are almost gone. Didn't you read the brochure? A lot of people died today."

The county magistrate shrank his neck and stopped talking.

Magistrate Gu ordered again: "Find an empty house for those beggars to go in to escape the cold, and also distribute some food and charcoal."

Some of the people who suffered were slightly wealthy, some were hungry and cold, and some of them had finished their funerals and had very little left. Suddenly they heard a knock on the door and hurried to greet them, only to find that it was an official delivering charcoal and food.

When many victims and common people were about to die, they looked at the food and charcoal sent to them as compensation, their eyes turned red, and they knelt down to the official: "County Magistrate Gu is really a great master..."

Magistrate Gu immediately became famous for his love for the people. Qi Tong was afraid that the people would not know that this was the food and charcoal collected from the entire Tongzhou County, so he quickly posted an announcement announcing the donation of food and charcoal. He was so desperate for survival.

Three days later, Wang Shuyan led A Yong and Lin Shuisheng out to sell charcoal.

However, instead of opening a shop to sell, they let two people drive a carriage to sell it. They only sold 500 kilograms a day.

A Yong and Lin Shuisheng drove a large carriage and howled at the top of their lungs: "I'm selling charcoal... twenty cents per catty, buy ten and get one free, the limit is ten catties."

Those who could afford it would not find it too much, so they would buy ten kilograms directly. Those who could not afford it would pool their money with neighbors to buy ten kilograms. After a short while, they were all sold out.

Wang Shuyan looked at the baskets of copper coins that the two men had earned and narrowed his eyes with a smile.

In business, you have to seize the opportunity and demand to make money. This time, it's okay.
