Gu Fang had just sent Liu Yan away, before the word "departure" came out of his throat, Lu Sheng's voice came over.

"Master Gu, wait a minute."

Gu Fang almost lost his breath, and turned his head helplessly to watch Lu Sheng come to him with a box in his hands.

For some reason, when he saw Lu Sheng, he subconsciously looked towards the path over there, but unfortunately, he couldn't see anything. Little Eunuch Lu seemed to appear out of thin air.

"Master Gu, take this with you!" Lu Sheng handed the box to him, "This is an anti-plague pill, you can burn one every day to fumigate your clothes or your house, to prevent the plague."

"Thank you." Gu Fang took it, then looked at him thoughtfully, and finally asked, "Little Eunuch Lu, is this a gift from the emperor?"

Lu Sheng thought about the last sentence his master said, "I can't mention you", and immediately denied it: "No."

Gu Fang lifted the lid and took a look, and saw that the anti-plague pills inside were neatly stacked in five rows of twelve pills each.

"Then who asked you to send this to me? Now that these medicinal materials are in short supply, it may not be that simple to get the medicine and make it into a plague-proof pill, and there are still so many of them." Gu Fang squinted his eyes.

"This..." Lu Sheng felt a little guilty when he stared at him like this.

"Okay, you don't need to say anything, I know." Seeing him like that, Gu Fang didn't intend to embarrass him, and he already decided in his heart that there was no one else except Jun Ruohan.

"Then... the slave will leave first." Lu Sheng said that he just wanted to disappear in front of him quickly, really afraid that he would have another question to ask.

Gu Fang saw that Lu Sheng was running away, so he dismounted and followed him.

Little Eunuch Lu only wanted to go back quickly, so he didn't notice that there was someone following behind him, besides, Gu Fang deliberately lowered the sound of his footsteps.

Turning into the narrow path, Lu Sheng let out a long sigh of relief, and bowed outside the carriage: "Master, everything is done."

"Did he take the things?" Jun Ruohan said as he lifted the curtain of the car, before his eyes stopped on Lu Sheng, he was attracted by the figure behind him.

Gu Fang was standing less than ten steps away from Lu Sheng, looking at this side.

"I accepted it, and the slave didn't mention that it was your intention. Young envoy Gu must not have known about it." Lu Sheng didn't notice it, let alone the master's gaze.

Gu Fang was a little embarrassed, he didn't expect Jun Ruohan to be here, his eyes met at this moment, if he pretended not to see him and then turned his head and walked away, wouldn't he look guilty?

"He already knows." Jun Ruohan withdrew his gaze, and squinted at Lu Sheng in front of him.

"Ah? Impossible..."

"The next official pays homage to the emperor."

Before Lu Sheng finished his self-doubting words, Gu Fang had already stepped forward and knelt down on the ground.

Jun Ruohan stared at the man kneeling beside the car slightly, with his forehead touching the ground and his shoulders drooping, showing a sincere awe.

Lu Sheng turned around in shock to look at the people on the ground

This……

"Master Gu, when did you come?"

Before Jun Ruohan asked him to get up, he naturally didn't dare to respond to Little Eunuch Lu's questioning.

"Your Majesty, this slave really..." Lu Sheng anxiously wanted to argue with his master, but was stopped by Jun Ruohan raising his hand, "Okay, I understand."

After it was over, he looked at the person kneeling on the ground again. How long has it been since they met?

Seeing him now, he suddenly felt as if he had passed away. This person lost a lot of weight, but he didn't look too depressed.

It turned out that he was the only one who was torturing himself all this time!

I thought that when we met again, he would not be able to control his emotions to question him, but he didn't expect that he could be so calm and calm.

"Young envoy Gu, excuse me!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Fang stood up, not knowing where to turn his eyes, and finally he could only stare at Lu Sheng, but said dryly, "I'm going to Feng County, thank you, Your Majesty, for the medicine."

"You don't need to say thank you, for the people of Dayue to come and go to the land of tigers and wolves, I should thank Shao Envoy Gu for the people, a few pills, and a little thought." Jun Ruohan said calmly, "Lu Sheng, go back to the palace."

"Yes."

"Farewell to Your Majesty!" Gu Fang lowered his eyes, listening to the sound of the wheels drifting away, he straightened up until he could no longer hear it, looked at the end of the path, and finally turned and left after a long time.

Gu Fang didn't expect to be stopped by someone again just after leaving the city gate.

He pinched the center of his brows helplessly, and looked at the young man in front of him: "Can I make it to Feng County before tomorrow night?"

"Yes, as long as you readily agree to take me with you, we won't waste time." Jiang Tong was riding on the horse, his back stretched straight, as if he would fight him on the spot if he didn't agree today.

"Young Master Gu, this is against the rules." Someone reminded him softly behind him.

Don't say it's against the rules, even if it's in compliance with the rules, he wouldn't dare to take it with him. Jiang Tong was the one who was most worried when Jiang Ling left. Negative entrustment.

"No, your brother won't agree either." Gu Fang refused.

"He's not here. When the time comes, you can say that you didn't take me there, but I followed quietly." Jiang Tong said, "It's okay if you don't agree. Anyway, I'm going to Fengxian County. I'll be alone on the way. It's hard to say whether one person will encounter any danger. I don't know how you will explain to my brother at that time?"

Gu Fang was speechless because a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy dared to threaten him.

Heh, I thought this guy was a naive and kind little cutie before, but I didn't expect him to be a cunning little fox.

"Let's go, let's go, I'm afraid of you." Gu Fang clicked his tongue and gave up resistance.

Jiang Tong immediately broke into a smile, and trotted behind him: "Brother Gu will take care of you on this journey.

"Gu Shaoshi, this..." The people behind him disapproved of his approach very much, they are extremely strict in charge of appraisal.

Gu Fang interrupted him: "Don't say anything against the rules, this kid is the precious brother of Vice President Jiang, it's fine."

Hearing Deputy Director Jiang, the "unruly" just now shut up immediately.

The speed of this group of people is definitely in line with Zhang Jiansi's style. They ran all the way from morning to noon without resting in between.

Gu Fang once had the experience of going to southern Xinjiang with Fei Yunqi. Although he was very tired this time, it was within the acceptable range. He turned his head to look at the young man beside him.

He was also worried about Jiang Tong's young age, fearing that his body would not be able to bear it. He saw people running wildly all the way without a look of tiredness on his face, and there was even a hint of fanatical expectation.

"Brother Gu, at our speed we will arrive early!" Jiang Tong noticed that Gu Fang was looking at him, so he turned his head to ask.

"Probably, why don't you try running for a day and a night without rest, maybe you can." Gu Fang was a little breathless when speaking.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Tong really thought about it seriously: "That's impossible, I can bear it, Ma Ke can't bear it."

According to the speed estimated by Qi Yuan, Gu Fang and his party arrived in Feng County before dark the next day, which was mainly due to Jiang Tong.

They have to take care of Fang's meaning to rest, and they can only arrive at night.

Before entering the county seat, Gu Fang felt that Fengxian County was full of danger. There was no one outside the city gate, and the guards were not soldiers but the people in charge of the Jiansi.

After checking everyone's tokens, Jiang Tong was finally detained.

"He can't enter." The colleague guarding the city pointed to Jiang Tong.

"He is the younger brother of Vice President Jiang, so he can enter." Gu Fang said.

"Then let Vice President Jiang come out to pick him up in person." This defender of the city is simply more ignorant than "unruly".

"..." Jiang Tong pulled Gu Fang's clothes worriedly, "Brother Gu, what should we do? If my brother knew I was coming, he would definitely not come out to pick me up."

That's really great, you can go back the same way.

Gu Xinxin thought so, but said: "No, I will go in and tell Jiang Ling, he will definitely come to pick you up."

"Really, really?" Jiang Tong didn't know what to do.

"Don't worry." Gu Fang patted the boy's frail shoulder, and led a group of people and three carts of medicinal materials into the city.

As soon as he entered, he noticed the difference. There were no ordinary people on the road in the county town. All the people in the city were patrolling around in the official uniform of the appraiser, and everyone's face was covered with a white cloth scarf.

"How is this going?"

"Irregularities" frowned: "Go see Deputy Director Jiang first!"

After not seeing him for such a long time, Jiang Ling has also lost a lot of weight, and there are two more creases between his eyebrows.

Seeing Gu Fang, he finally showed his face, and said without greeting, "How much medicine is there?"

"Three cars." Seeing him, Gu Fang knew that the situation in Feng County was very critical at this time, "It has already been transported to the yard of the doctors."

Jiang Ling pursed his thin lips, and then sighed heavily: "I'm afraid we can't escape this disaster in Feng County."

"Wh, what do you mean?" He didn't mention Huaiyang or Dayue, but only Fengxian County, indicating that Jiangling can be sure that at least at this time, the epidemic is still under control in this county.

"Three carts of medicine can't be controlled for a long time, after half a month..." Jiang Ling paused, "Massacre of the city."

"Tu... Tucheng?" Gu Fang couldn't believe what he heard.

"Those who were already infected did not get better within half a month, so they were directly killed." Jiang Ling said, "So it is right for the emperor not to come this time."

If Jun Ruohan had visited Feng County in person, there would inevitably be rumors that the order to slaughter the city came from Jun Ruohan.

What the people need is a benevolent monarch, not a cruel emperor.

"But, does the emperor know?" Although Gu Fang knew that Jiangling's actions must be because the people in the city could no longer suppress them, if they rushed out of the county, it would affect the entire Dayue.But Tucheng... He still couldn't accept it for a while.

"Everything I do is his will." Jiang Ling looked at him and said.

When he left, he promised Jun Ruohan that if the epidemic could not be controlled, he would stop the loss in time.

Gu Fang was silent, before he spoke for a long time: "By the way, Jiang Tong... is here too."

"Jiang Tong?" Jiang Ling's face changed, "Who asked him to come?"

"He came by himself, but was stopped outside the city, and he said that he must go to pick it up in person before he can be let into the city." Gu Fang said.

"It's just nonsense." Jiang Ling gritted his teeth.
