Chapter 190 Confession
Even without the government's call, many people dare not go out. Occasionally, there are two or three pedestrians, wearing face scarves like them, and walking in a hurry.

Going forward, there are many people lined up in front of a shed. This should be the doctor Xiao Linze arranged to stay in the east of the city to watch the pulse of the people every day.

Lin Qingyue blinked, as if she saw Xiao Linze, she hurriedly pressed down the brim of her hat, and walked away quickly, pulling the litchi.

"Girl, what's the matter?" Li Zhi asked suspiciously.

"It's okay, let's go back quickly." Lin Qingyue replied.

Xiao Linze is here today to inspect the sheds where the common people seek medical treatment, to see if there are any problems, and to ask the doctors what else they need. The east side of the city has just finished the inspection, and there are no major problems, but the medicinal materials are almost running out. He was about to go to the west of the city, but when he looked up, he saw a figure of a woman wearing a long gauze hat flashing past the corner of the street.

That figure was too familiar.

Looking at the back of the woman next to her, she also looked familiar.

Seeing that they were also going to the west of the city, he didn't think too much about it, and after arranging the matters here, he followed them.

Arriving in the west of the city, the houses we entered are not as grand as the ones in the east of the city. The low houses are close together, and there is a faint smell coming from under the bluestone slabs. It must be that the sewer is blocked. I didn't find anyone to talk to me, and now I can't spare any manpower to do this.

Lin Qingyue couldn't help sighing, it's nothing more than the most serious plague here, if someone has a heart to spread the plague, this is indeed the most suitable place.

Lizhi showed embarrassment: "The girl must have never been here before?"

Lin Qingyue nodded: "It's true that I haven't been here."

Lizhi smiled shyly: "This is where we poor people live. If you have a little money, everyone will want to move to the east of the city. I also want to earn money and move my family there."

Lin Qingyue smiled slightly: "If you want, you can. What we have to do now is to survive. If we survive, any wish can be fulfilled."

She thought that Lizhi was quite an honest person, and if the epidemic passed smoothly, she might not be able to help her achieve this wish before she left, but she still couldn't easily export this promise, after all, the epidemic has not passed, and the world is even more unpredictable.

"Yes." Li Zhi didn't dare to look at Lin Qingyue, just nodded her head in response, recalling Lin Qingyue's words over and over again, "It's good to live, to live..."

Lin Qingyue felt that Li Zhi's words were repeated strangely, as if she was preoccupied. Then she thought that she might be worried about her family, so she reached out and patted her on the shoulder, reassuring her not to worry too much about things that haven't happened yet.

The two walked in for a while and finally saw the shed that Gong Meng led people to build in the west of the city.

The people here are also very obedient, and they are divided into three teams, waiting in line one by one. When they are called, they will go forward and wait for the doctor to give them a pulse. It's just that the people here are not as quiet as the people in the east of the city, but they are not as quiet. Even though it was too noisy, there were only three or two people who were acquainted with each other, with their hands in their sleeves, their heads touching their heads, and they were muttering about something.

Everyone wore face scarves, Lin Qingyue couldn't see the expressions on their faces clearly, but she could see their anger just by looking at their eyebrows, which must have something to do with what they were discussing.

She patted Lizhi's hand, told her to stay here quietly for a while, and walked a few steps forward by herself, listening carefully with her ears, when a man said: "Really, it's all spread The emperor was assassinated when he went to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings, and he was stabbed in the middle of the blessing ceremony, I am afraid that the heavens are to blame."

"No way, except for the dog officer, our Zizhou was all good before, and the emperor's general Da Qi managed it pretty well." Another woman interjected.

"What do you know, a woman?" The man who said this seemed to be the woman's husband, "How can such a big corrupt official be allowed to come if the governance is good? How can the crown prince turn against him? I see it as retribution! Everything! retribution!"

Lin Qingyue frowned, and she said that at this time, the common people should be in danger, and try not to talk together as much as possible. Why is it so lively and mysterious? It turns out that someone is spreading gossip again .

She had no doubt that it was someone else's fault again.

Xiao Linze must have sent a secret letter back. Even though there is no way to get back the witness card, but with this letter, the emperor will definitely let people control the entire Duanwang Mansion, followed by a search, and then go to prison. If there is any evidence, the emperor can't take strict precautions, so this gives him an opportunity?

Before Lin Qingyue could figure it out, Li Zhi came over to persuade her to leave quickly.

"Girl, let's go back early."

Lin Qingyue nodded, and left with Lizhi.

Lizhi's home was really close to the medical shed in the west of the city. They turned a corner, walked through an alley, and came to a small courtyard with a single family. Lizhi stopped walking.

"This yard is not bad either. It looks like your wish to move to the east of the city is about to come true." Lin Qingyue looked around and smiled.

Lin Qingyue's words were just a joke, but she saw Lizhi's hand that opened the door visibly paused, and there seemed to be something wrong with the look on his brows and eyes.

She felt that there was something wrong with Lizhi, and she became more and more strange since she just arrived in the west of the city.

"Then you have to live..." She heard Li Zhi mutter.

She deliberately asked: "What did you say?"

Lizhi suddenly came back to her senses, shook her head and said, "I'm just... a little worried, worried that the plague will..."

Lin Qingyue felt that Lizhi was not only worried about this, but she couldn't find any other reasons, so she could only say softly: "If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, I am not familiar with the place here, but I can go and ask the adults for you, he can’t help you, don’t take care of some things alone.”

After she finished speaking, Li Zhi's eyes turned red instantly. Without saying a word, she looked at Li Zhi tenderly and encouraged her to speak out about her difficulties. At this moment, a cough came from inside.

Li Zhi shuddered unrecognizably, and said, "Girl, let's go in quickly, let's go in and talk."

Lin Qingyue felt more and more that something was wrong with the litchi. Just now she clearly wanted to say something to herself, but when she coughed inside, she swallowed all the words that came to her lips, and suppressed the tears that came to her eyes.

At this moment, the door creaked and was pushed open by Lizhi.

And the strangest thing is that it's time to make dinner, but...

She looked up at the chimney above the house calmly, but there was no movement.

She came back to her senses, grabbed Lizhi's hand suddenly, and said: "Lichi, I seem to have seen the lord chasing up just now, let's turn around and admit his mistake obediently, he doesn't blame you, it just happens My anger will be difficult to coax."

Li Zhi turned her head in shock and looked into Lin Qingyue's eyes. She didn't agree, and the movement of pushing the door stopped.

Just when Lin Qingyue was about to forcefully pull Lizhi away, a pair of big hands suddenly stretched out from inside, opened the door neatly, and then pulled Lin Qingyue in.
