Report

"One, two, one, two …" "Boom!" The house completely collapsed.

A group of people rushed up with various tools. Some of them even wore gloves to carry the things. The pile of things in the house was quickly reduced.

The ox-carts left with the things while the others continued to clean up.

"Where did Huai Shen go?" Yao Chong hid in the dust and looked around.

"He rented a suite at Xing Dao Fang Inn and moved the things there. He will come back to live when the new house is repaired." Zhang Shuo gave the answer.

"It's close to the court." Yao Chong was envious.

Across the road from Xing Dao Fang was the Imperial City. Opposite Xing Dao Fang was Taichang Temple. Behind Taichang Temple was the Secretary Province.

Of course, the three of them did not work in the Secretary Province. They were in charge of the Secretariat, which was now called the Crape Myrtle Province. Yao Chong was the Crape Myrtle Magistrate.

"Come to Huai Shen's house often for meals in the future. Although he was not given money in the Heavenly World, he was probably provided with other meals."

Zhang Shuo felt jealous. How could Li Yi only think of one person? Didn't he know that there were three prime ministers in the imperial court?

In a large inn in Xing Dao Fang, Xiaoyun went into the rented suite to have a look.

She came out with an unhappy face.

"This suite is not enough. Are there any other rooms? You know, this is for Prime Minister Lu. "Xiaoyun complained to the innkeeper.

"Master Xiao, there is no more. There is a separate courtyard. That …" The innkeeper knew Xiaoyun and explained with a bitter face.

"Okay, courtyard. Move the things to the courtyard." Xiaoyun commanded. A group of people went downstairs and told the people waiting downstairs to move the things to another place.

The person involved, Lu Huai Shen, stood aside and did not say anything. His wife was calm and the child was curious.

The child was puzzled. Last night, this beautiful lady came to deliver crabs, wrote something, and left.

This morning, she brought people to help move the house. The house there was also his family.

It was amazing. His family had a house in Chang 'an. If his elder brother knew, he would be very happy.

Fanyang Lu's family and the North's third branch also heard the news and came to watch the show.

They greeted Lu Huai Shen respectfully.

Usually, Lu Huaishen would help those who were having a hard time. Moreover, Lu Huaishen was now the leader of the North Patriarch's third branch.

"Keep these pieces of furniture. Don't put them inside yet. Come on, let's move them to the courtyard and look for new furniture."

Xiaoyun instructed them to move the furniture. It turned out that Lu Huaishen did not have much furniture in his house. Logically, they should throw it away.

Xiaoyun was the one who was responsible for manipulating the mood and controlling the entire banquet. Her words made people feel comfortable.

She didn't care about the furniture she was going to throw away.

She turned around and apologized to Lu Huaishen, "Lu Xiangnu, I've already arranged a place here. The new furniture isn't suitable for me, but the courtyard is too big, so I had no choice."

Lu Huaishen could only nod. There was nothing else he could say.

Even if he didn't show it on his face, his impression of Li Yi in his heart had doubled. He was too sensible.

What he didn't know was that Li Yi had done even worse than this in the past.

Li Yi, who had slowly developed in society after being beaten up, did not have the arrogance of someone who could go against the heavens, the earth and the air.

After all, there was an exchange of interests between countries. Which large company would not have a good relationship with the country they were in when they wanted to develop overseas? Behind the scenes …

Now Lu Huaishen felt the impact. He had signed the agreement yesterday and stamped it today.

He was enjoying the feeling of comfort when a carriage and a group of people dressed in all kinds of clothes came over.

The procession stopped, and someone came over, "Minister Lu, my Dongzhu invites you."

"Okay!" Lu Huaishen saw the appearance of the person who came and followed him without a word. The procession started again.

"Your Majesty, Empress." Lu Huaishen saluted in the carriage.

"Minister Lu, are you moving?" Li Longji asked while taking advantage of the good weather to bring the Empress out for a walk.

"Your Majesty, it's Li Yi. Last night, he …" Lu Huaishen told the truth.

"Hahahaha ~ ~" Li Longji laughed. Empress Wang covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Good, this is a good bribe. I've learned something new. Brother Yi, you don't have to worry about the bureaucracy in the future."

Li Longji once again felt that Li Yi was good at his job. He even had the mood to bribe people.

"Then I …" Lu Huaishen asked carefully. Do I need it?

"Minister Lu, are you feeling well? If you feel unwell, you can go to Brother Yi's place to have a look. "Li Longji suddenly said something unexpected.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty." Lu Huaishen was touched. He now knew about Li Yi's medical skills.

Lu Huaishen also knew that even if Li Yi didn't give him any gifts, without His Majesty's protection, if someone tried to cause trouble for Li Yi in the imperial court, the officials who knew his identity would still protect him.

If someone fell ill, the imperial physician would make arrangements for their funeral. Zhuangzi was the last chance to save their life.

"It's the same for your family." Li Longji emphasized. If your family fell ill, just don't expose your identity.

"I'm very grateful." Lu Huaishen thanked him again.

Li Longji suddenly thought of someone. "Minister Lu, do you only know about Gu Zizhi's situation?"

Li Longji thought of Wei Zhigu and asked Lu Huaishen.

Lu Huaishen's eyes were blank. He shook his head. "I don't know."

Li Longji found a small rope in the carriage and pulled it. The bell outside rang.

"Your Majesty." Gao Lishi's voice sounded.

"Has something happened to Wei Zhigu recently?" Li Longji asked through the carriage door.

"He's sick. I've ordered the imperial physician to take a look. He said it's a cold illness and has been prescribed medicine." Gao Lishi replied.

"Let's go to Bu Zheng Fang." Li Longji ordered.

The procession continued forward. Bu Zheng Fang was at the bottom left corner of the imperial city. They could reach it if they walked along the Southern Ring Road.

In fact, Wei Zhigu's residence was the closest to the imperial city. His residence was north of Bu Zheng Fang's east gate.

According to the 《Tang Dynasty's Residence Addendum》, Attendant Wei Zhigu's residence was north of Bu Zheng Fang's east gate.

The reason why it wasn't the northeast corner was because the northeast corner was known as the 'corner' of the northeast. It was the home of the Right Golden Guard.

"He really is sick. We've already treated him so well, yet he's still depressed?" Li Longji said with a frown.

Lu Huaishen didn't understand what it meant, but he felt that there was something very mysterious about it.

He thought about how His Majesty had asked him about his health, then asked Wei Zhigu, and then Wei Zhigu had gotten sick.

Didn't that mean that he would also …

Or his family …

Heavens! No! He hadn't lived long enough, and his family was doing well. He was about to have a new residence.

As he thought about it, Lu Huaishen's face turned pale.

When they arrived at Bu Zheng Fang's residence, they heard the sound of coughing coming from inside. Lu Huaishen felt his fingers go numb, as if they had been pressed down for a long time.

The procession stopped. Li Longji was about to get out of the carriage when he paused and looked at Empress Wang.

Empress Wang took out a large mask and put it on, then nodded at Li Longji.

Li Longji shook his head, so Empress Wang took out a pair of glasses that looked like diving goggles and put it on her head. She blinked her eyes through the glass.

Li Longji nodded and got out of the carriage first. When he got out of the carriage, he turned around and reached out to take Empress Wang's hand. He half supported Empress Wang to get out of the carriage as well.

Empress Wang stuck out her belly and was very happy.

Lu Huaishen looked and thought about how he also had a four-wheeled carriage that His Majesty had given him. He should find a chance to take his wife out to play and learn from them.
