A month later, the Seven Kingdoms came to congratulate Wang Xie on his accession to the throne, and the kings of the Seven Kingdoms were no strangers to this new Jiang King, but they were not familiar with it.

At the king's banquet, there were those who embarrassed him, those who were impressed by his kingly temperament, and those who probed his ambitions for the world and neighbors. However, this new Jiang king entertained them politely and thoughtfully, and the answer was calm and sensitive, and it was impossible to find fault with it at all, but it was ...... It's always a bit of a feeling that people don't know how to get close and can't figure it out.

Originally, the kings and envoys of various countries had no bottom in their hearts, and seeing that King Xinjiang's attitude was quite kind, they were ready to deepen their relationship with him here.

After all, Jiang Guo is the strongest among the seven countries, and it is a martial country, so diplomacy cannot be neglected.

However, something happened in Jiang Country that caught people off guard.

It was a plague that came quickly.

As soon as the news of the plague in Jiang Kingdom came, the kings and envoys of various countries drove away from Jiang Country overnight, not daring to stay for a moment.

However, this mighty plague unexpectedly not only occurred in Jiang Country, but also in the entire continent at the same time, and the number of dead and injured people has been reported to hundreds of thousands, and the epidemic is still spreading.

Because the cause of the epidemic could not be found, there were rumors that the plague came from the Jiang country, and I heard that when he ascended the throne, the palace was infighting, and the fourth prince Wang Ji cursed the new Jiang king, and the rumors suddenly spread like a plague to all countries.

At one time, the kings' letters, and even the Son of Heaven, challenged the king's evil spirit, and placed the blame for the plague on him, and asked him to give an explanation.

However, Jiang Wang did not say a word about this matter, only some methods to temporarily control the epidemic and pay attention to preventing the spread of the epidemic.

When the kings received the letter, they thought he was fooling them, and they didn't ask about the plague, and several good kings secretly colluded, wanting to take advantage of the opportunity to seize some of the land of Jiang and divide it, and planned day and night.

However, because of the lack of control and the spread of the epidemic that became more and more severe, the military camp became a hard-hit area, and it was impossible to send troops at all.

The rain was pouring down, and the street vendors in the capital would pack up their stalls and rush to their homes.

Because of the plague, Jiang Guo's industry was ruined, and the disaster was so severe that tens of thousands of lives were endangered, and many people did not dare to come out to do business, nor did they dare to talk to their neighbors, for fear of being infected.

It rained for about ten days in a row, and the people with their windows open, thinking that the merchants who had come to exchange rice and grain would probably not enter the city today. They were worried about their rice jars, which could last a few days.

"Dad, Dad, do you think that person is a rice merchant?" The eight-year-old child clutched his stomach and turned yellow with hunger. Looking at the lonely man on the street, his eyes shining with hope, tugging at the corner of his father's clothes, excitedly pointing to the young man who was walking in the rain with his head down and holding a butter umbrella that was not new.

Before his father could see clearly, he opened the door and rushed out, stepped forward and grabbed the young man and knelt down: "Brother! Please, sell me all your rice, my aunt is going to starve to death!" ”

The young man was suddenly grabbed and tightened the sword in his right hand, but he was stunned when he saw that it was a middle-aged, yellow-faced and thin-skinned man.

"Please, sell us the rice!" The child also ran out, tugging at the corner of the good-looking brother's clothes, looking helpless.

Junwu is dressed in men's clothes, and he doesn't look like a person from this city, so he is naturally regarded as a merchant outside the city.

She stretched out her hand and touched the child's head: "I'm sorry, I'm not a rice merchant, and I don't have rice to sell to you." ”

The child looked at her helplessly, and Jun Wu turned to look at the man, and his eyes dimmed for a moment.

He got up slowly, wiped a handful of rain from his face, and said to her, "Ah...... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but we recognized the wrong person. As he spoke, he pulled the child over.

"It's okay."

The man said and pulled the child and turned to leave, sighing as he walked: "Hey...... I don't know when this plague will end. After speaking, he wiped a handful of things on his face that he didn't know whether rain or tears were on his face.

The child did not give up and turned his eyes to look at the good-looking brother from time to time, but the brother pressed the umbrella down, covered his face, and walked forward quietly, feeling very special brother.

Jiang Guo Palace, noon.

Although the plague also spread to the palace, Wang Xie only ordered that people with the epidemic should be isolated in the palace for prevention and control, and the rest of the palace remained as usual.

The palace people prepared hundreds of dishes and brought them to the king as usual, but Wang Xie looked at those dishes but took chopsticks and slowly put them down.

The eunuch stepped forward and asked with trepidation: "Is it because the food is not to the king's appetite?" ”

Wang Xie slowly stood up and said lightly: "In the past few days, the heavy rain has blocked the road outside the city, and fewer and fewer rice merchants have entered the city, I don't know how many people are still starving, how can I eat so much food." ”

"But the king, you are the body of gold......"

Wang Xie waved his hand to stop his next exhortation: "Pass the order, before the plague is over, one steamed bun and one bowl of water are enough for Lone's three meals." All the people in the palace are not divided into grades, and the three meals a day are all simple, and the palace secretary is asked to count how much food and materials are still in reserve, and half of them are allocated to be distributed outside the palace to the people. And let the history of Zhisu Nei formulate relevant rewards and punishments for the nobles who control most of the granary materials in the capital, and notify the nobles among the nobles, and those who are in danger of helping the country in the granary will be given a number of ranks, and those who are malicious in storing grain will be demoted to several levels for the crime of tantiating against the country......"

"Do as the king commands!"

"Go to the Tai Hospital."

"Yes!"

The bell chime on the palace corridor made a sound in the wind: "Bell bell bell ......", Jun Wu changed into the costume of the palace people, bowed his head and followed the group of palace maids to walk in the rear. The position of the afterglow seemed to see a familiar figure, she paused slightly, the wind blew her green silk, her eyebrows and eyes were soft, with a faint smile, looking at his position, a little faint, warm and long.

Not far away, Wang Xie twisted his eyebrows and was thinking about plague control and solving things, he felt as if there were eyes watching him, and when he looked up, he looked at that position and paused. He blinked twice, thinking he was mistaken, but she pointed behind her and quietly faded around the corner of the porch.

He reacted, clenched his fist, and said to the people around him: "You don't have to follow Lonely, each of you carefully checks whether there are any missing rat holes, if there are any, seal them immediately, and maintain the cleaning inside and outside the palace, keep the room ventilated and refreshing, and go to discuss with Imperial Doctor Zhang alone." ”

Although the palace people didn't know why they suddenly let them seal the rat hole these days, the king said that there must be a reason, and was ordered: "Yes, king." ”

The palace people retreated, and Wang Xie walked over without hurrying forward, which was not unusual.

After the palace maid saluted him, he did not find that one was missing, he walked around the corner, paused, and saw a palace maid with green hookah yarn walking slowly on the palace corridor, with green silk hair and a delicate back. Her body was a little thin, but she was a little straight and stubborn, her back was erect, and her steps were indifferent.

Suddenly, she paused, as if to say to him, "Why don't you keep up?" ”

He lifted his steps, two or three feet away, and followed closely behind her.

In the tortuous corridors of the palace, she entered a quiet and deserted house in the palace, and he did not stop it when he saw that it was not a place where the epidemic spread.

Entering the room she entered, he then closed the door with his backhand.

The sunlight shone through the pane and shone her face so that the sun swayed, slightly, and the corners of her mouth were faintly curved.

The heart that has been shrouded in haze for days is like a warm light, which loosens the tight strings in his brain.

"Come here." He beckoned to her, curling the corners of his lips slightly.

She came out of the half-bright and half-sleepy light, and he saw what she really looked like.

Stretching out his hand, he naturally held her tightly in his arms, and he seemed to ask himself and as if to ask her: "Am I always too tolerant of you, so that you can always leave me so lightly." ”

"How to write acacia, do you know?"

Her hand spread and pressed gently against his back.

"I heard that you are in trouble, but I am not here."

He laughed, slowly pushed her away, and raised his eyebrows slightly: "What do you mean I'm in trouble?" There you are? ”

"Plague, such a big thing......" she shook his hand, "I think you have just ascended the throne, your father has just died, and other countries are making trouble for you, so you must have a hard time." ”

He looked at her carefully, "People say that I killed my father to become king, can you believe it?" ”

She shook her head without hesitation, "You won't." "That's a categorical answer.

"What if I say yes?"

She held his face in both hands: "Then you look me in the eye now, say yes, let me believe to try." ”

The corners of his eyebrows slowly soaked with a smile, like a spring breeze sliding across the plane of spring water, he covered her hand and lowered his head against her forehead: "Ah Wu, I miss you very much, do you know?" ”

She closed her eyes: "I know, I miss you too, I miss you too, I miss you very much." ”

He kissed her softly on the lips, precious.

Jun Wu felt that there seemed to be a stubble on his cheeks, and his fingers caressed him, looking at her distressedly.

"Don't look at me so distressed, I'll feel a little embarrassed."

"Why the embarrassment?"

"Because my women are worried about me."

She looked at him, closed her eyes, and exhaled slowly: "It seems that you are also the doom that I can't escape in this life." ”

Tai Hospital, a group of Tai Doctors entrusted a relationship with someone who probably found the source of the plague, wrapped in a cloth all over the body with only two eyes exposed, surrounded by a group of rats gritting their teeth, stamping their feet and panting.

"It's this group of rats that has caused the king to think about it, and the people have suffered from the plague, and we are busy day and night, this official, this official will beat them to death......!" Master Li, Taichangqing, who was in charge of investigating the matter, rolled up his sleeves and prepared to beat the rats with all his arms.

Imperial Physician Zhang hurriedly pulled down his sleeve: "Adults are angry, adults are angry, why are you angry with these plague rats?" Stay away, stay away, let's find a solution now? ”

"Yes...... Can...... Look at my eyes! Master Li pulled the cloth on his eyes and pointed to his dark eye circles, "How many days and nights have the officials stayed up to find these 'murderers', and now the officials must beat them with blue skin and swollen faces." ”

Behind him, several of his seed-like students also followed behind and raised their hands: "Eliminate the rats, destroy the rats......!" ”

A fan smashed into one of his students, Xiao Yan, who had found the source of the plague, looked at them and twitched the corner of his eyes slightly.

"Get out." Raising his eyes, his beautiful eyes, a beautiful eye knife scraped over.

Several students were shocked, and immediately bowed their heads and said, "Yes!" Be! Prime Minister! "Push it out in a row. I heard that offending Prime Minister Xiao Cheng doesn't need to be mixed up in the court of any country, in short, I can't afford to provoke him!

Lord Li saw that the Prime Minister, who had been playing with a fan and drinking tea, spoke, and was also silent, and stepped forward and asked curiously: "Hey, Prime Minister Xiao, how did you determine that these rats are the source of the plague?" ”

Xiao Yan's eyelids did not lift the ground, and his beautiful white fingers flicked the fan bone, "Since my lord is not sure what I said, why did he beat those mice?"

"This ...... Of course, I fully trust the adults! ”

"Okay."

"What's good?"

"Now that the source has been found...... Xiao Yan looked at Imperial Physician Zhang, "How many days will Imperial Physician Zhang be able to come up with the antidote?" ”

"This ......," Imperial Physician Zhang scratched the cloth on his head, "I'll try my best." ”

Xiao Yan got up, "What I want to hear, can I or can't?" ”

"This ...... I have never seen a plague, and the lower officials dare not make assertions. ”

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a steady and magnetic voice came from outside the door: "Lonely people, the people of the world have no time to hesitate with you." ”

Pushing open the door, Wang Xie walked in, and Master Li and Imperial Doctor Zhang were shocked.

Lord Li was holding a ball of cloth and wanted to go over to wrap him, but after walking a few steps, he was snatched away by Lord Xiao in a few steps.

Seeing this, Lord Li rubbed the cloth and wanted Xiao Yan to rob him and pat him on the back, who knew that since he pushed the king away in a big way, he said to a slender figure behind the king: "Dead girl, you dare to appear in front of me!" ”

The king turned around, and almost without hesitation, kicked the prime minister to the side!

stepped forward, he pulled a palace maid, guarded away from the prime minister like a thief, and patted her sleeve that had been touched by the prime minister: "What do you want to do to my queen?" ”

Lord Li and Imperial Physician Zhang stared at the king with wide eyes, looking at the palace maid.

However, Prime Minister Xiao said: "Hmph, little brat, how did my wife become your queen." ”

Master Li and Imperial Doctor Zhang opened their mouths: "......"
