Jing Yang's disturbance did not affect Nanyang City at all. The rear general Yuan Shu's residence was still singing and dancing, bustling as before.
"What news is there this time?" Yuan Shu asked calmly when he saw Yang Hong walking in with a new newspaper.
Under the influence of this thing, everyone had already accepted the word news, and it had already become a popular phrase in the streets.
" Uh..." Yang Hong walked over carefully and said softly," The epidemic in Jiangxia has subsided. In this newspaper, Lu Chengfeng claimed that it was all because of Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, but he didn't mention himself.”
Yuan Shu was stunned for a moment. After a while, he turned around and glared at him."What did you say? He could even cure the plague? Is this guy bragging?"
"..." Yang Hong was speechless. Did Lu Chengfeng look like a fool? Why did he tell such a lie that would be exposed with a single poke to make himself feel unhappy?
"This brat!" Yuan Shu immediately kicked the table in front of him angrily and waved his hand to dismiss the singers in the hall. He walked around the hall angrily with a gloomy and ugly expression.
His hostility towards Lu Peng was getting deeper and deeper. In the beginning, he wanted to rope this guy in. After all, they were neighbors. Wouldn't it be good to form an alliance to deal with Yuan Shao's adopted son? But this bastard actually dared to not give him face!
Who was he? He was the son of the Yuan Family's four generations of dukes, yet this brat who came from god knows where dared to be so rude?
Therefore, Yuan Gonglu made a note in his little notebook. When Tao Qian wanted to cause trouble, he would take the opportunity to extort him. He didn't expect Tao Qian to be so useless. He didn't dare to make enemies for the time being, so he could only pinch his nose and pay his respects.
How can I not hate this guy!
Now that he had made such a big show of himself, Yuan Shu was so angry that he went crazy. He didn't need to think to know that the people would respect him even more in the future.
"My lord!" At this moment, the registrar, Yan Xiang, rushed in. He was stunned for a moment when he saw Yuan Shu's expression and hesitated.
"What is it now?" Yuan Shu knew that there was bad news. He frowned and asked.
Yan Xiang hesitated for a while before stuttering,"My lord, in the past few days, a large number of people have migrated to the Lujiang River…"
"What?!" Yuan Shu was furious. He grabbed a jade pen holder from the table and smashed it on the ground." Where are you from?" he said ferociously. Dismiss the local county magistrate and lock him up. He's actually such a waste!”
" This... this..." Yan Xiang said awkwardly and helplessly," Not only one county, but also Xincai, Xiang, Ruyin... Even the people of Kunyang are secretly running south. The magistrate can't guard against them..."
Yuan Shu was speechless.
He gritted his teeth for a while and said sternly,"Pass down the order. Order Zhang Xun to lead the army to seal off the road leading to Lu River.”
……
On the official road from Runan to Yangquan, the people were moving forward in an endless stream.
An old man in his fifties was exhausted and sat by the roadside, leaning against a tree to rest.
The others just passed by numbly. Only a young man in his twenties ran over and asked,"Old man, are you alright?"
"W-I can't walk anymore." The old man smiled bitterly." Little brother, don't worry about me. You can go on your own."”
"Old Master, I'll carry you!" The young man bent down without hesitation.
The old man hesitated for a moment, but his desire to live also surged. He said gratefully,"Thank you, little brother. May I know your name?”
"My surname is Chen, and my name is Dao." The young man said straightforwardly, carrying the old man on his back and walking forward.
The two of them chatted as they walked. It turned out that the old man's surname was Deng. His wife had died early and he only had one son. He died two years ago when the rebels crossed the border. His daughter-in-law had also returned to her mother's house. He was alone, farming for a living, and the government still wanted to exploit him. He really couldn't live on, so he had to leave his hometown with his neighbors and head south, but he was separated halfway.
"I heard that Lu Langjun not only distributed food to the people, but also collected very little rent after planting the land. He also loved the people like his own children and treated them very well. Sigh, is there really such an official?" Elder Deng sighed.
At this moment, someone beside him heard him and poked his head over."That's not all. Lu Langjun is a god who has descended to the mortal world. With a point of his finger, the grain in the field will grow up. This time, when there was a plague in Jiangxia, it was also him who killed the plague god with a finger.”
Instantly, a stone stirred up a thousand waves. The surrounding people gathered over and told them what they had heard. Some people claimed that Lu Langjun was the star of Shengde in the sky. He couldn't bear to see the suffering of the living beings and descended to the mortal world. He even gave a treasure to the former emperor to quell the chaos. Unfortunately, the former emperor couldn't use it.
Chen Dao listened for a while and shook his head slightly. He was educated, so of course he would not believe such nonsense. However, he was also very curious about Lu Langjun.
At this moment, someone shouted from behind,""Uncle Zhi, is that you?"
