Chapter 426: Misfortune is not a one-way street
【Latest Chapter Reading.】 In the afternoon, Tanglin Guyun had just rested for a while, and was about to continue to go to the imperial study to deal with political affairs.
Tanglin Guyun didn't dare to delay, and immediately packed up and rushed to the imperial study.
Tanglin Guyun waved his hand: "I don't know what the prime minister is doing here."
Ke Zhengyan immediately took two steps forward and bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, there is a plague in the capital, and the situation is serious."
Tanglin Guyun was immediately taken aback: "What, the sudden plague, let's say, how serious is the situation."
Ke Zhengyan frowned: "Your Majesty, there are countless people who have died due to the plague.
Tanglin Guyun became more and more surprised when he heard this, and gritted his teeth in some annoyance: "Since it is already so serious, why did you come to report it at this moment?"
"The emperor forgives the sins." Ke Zhengyan sighed. Originally, the ministers thought that because the drought lasted too long, it would cause the plague, and they thought that it would be enough to prescribe some medicine to treat the people who were infected with the plague.
Donglin Guyun's brows gradually furrowed tighter than anyone else's, and he pondered for a moment before he continued: "Didn't I order the officials of all ministries to properly resettle the victims who poured into the capital?
Ke Zhengyan shook his head: "Back to the emperor, although the officials of various ministries have been sleeping tirelessly to settle the victims, they really can't withstand the large number of people.
In this case, I really don't want anyone.Donglin Guyun sighed secretly.And then said, "How did the plague spread?
Ke Zhengyan agreed, bowed down and said: " At first, the plague was brought into the capital by people from other places, and a small number of people were infected, and they had symptoms such as headache, fever, and diarrhea. They didn't care. They thought about carrying it, and it passed. Who knew that the disease was developing rapidly, and within a few days they vomited, and they fell into a coma, and more than a dozen people died in just a few days.
Tanglin Guyun nodded: "That's right, but since the necessary measures have been taken, why is the plague still spreading, but it's not just these people who are infected."
"The emperor is wise." Ke Zhengyan nodded. Actually, this is only a small part of it, and almost at the same time, news came from all over the capital, that the plague had been discovered, and that it was so ferocious that it was almost uncontrollable, and that the plague itself was brought by the people from other places, and that they had no fixed place to live, and they wandered around, which was equivalent to invisibly spreading the plague to all parts of the capital."
Tanglin Guyun realized this, but he was also anxious because of this: "Can the imperial doctor in the palace cure this plague?"
Ke Zhengyan sighed again, and was also worried: "When the plague was first discovered, the imperial physician also prescribed medicine for those who were infected, and it seemed to have some effect at first. their condition was alleviated to a certain extent, but this relief was temporary.
Tanglin Guyun couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "In other words, the imperial doctor can't cure this plague at all."
"At least not so far." Ke Zhengyan shook his head. This is precisely the reason why the ministers came to ask the emperor for instructions, if the imperial doctors in the palace are helpless, do they need to recruit good doctors from the people, and let them rush to the capital to control the epidemic as soon as possible?"
"Naturally, it needs to be said." Tanglin Guyun nodded without hesitation: "The most important thing now is to control the epidemic, treat those who are infected, as long as this goal can be achieved, any method is feasible, and it is necessary to deal with it quickly."
Several people hurriedly agreed, and before they had time to say more, they immediately turned around and retreated, and began to handle the matter.
But after taking a few steps, Ke Zhengyan stopped again, and waited for the rest of the people to leave the imperial study, and then he said carefully: "Your Majesty, in fact, the ministers are worried that the epidemic is so serious, and even the imperial doctors have no choice, and the good doctors collected from the people may not work."
Tanglin Guyun frowned: "What do you mean ......?"
Ke Zhengyan hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke: "Has the emperor forgotten?
Tanglin Guyun was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes were cold: "It's a pity, she has been driven away by you people, so if the Imperial Doctor is helpless, they can only wait for death."
Ke Zhengyan didn't care much about it, and still said with all his might: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that the queen mother has been wronged, and the queen mother is kind-hearted.
Thinking of that day, only this prime minister had said a few fair words for Duanmu Youning, and it was he who proposed not to take the time limit and gave birth to the prince as the deadline, so that it was possible for Duanmu Youning to return to the palace as soon as possible.
"The minister knows." Ke Zhengyan nodded. It's just that the emperor has a deep affection for the queen mother, and it shouldn't be possible to really rest assured that the queen mother will go away alone.
Although he used a question, his tone was very affirmative, Donglin Guyun glanced at him, and still did not give a clear answer: "I will try my best, you can step back first."
Ke Zhengyan gave a salute, then turned around and retreated, there was already a look of relief in his eyes, he knew, neither the emperor nor the queen could watch those people die due to the plague, as long as he could remind the emperor of the empress with excellent medical skills, her task would be completed.
And at this point, he was obviously not mistaken.When he left.Tanglin Guyun first sat in place and muttered for a moment.Then he got up and quickly returned to the palace to change into civilian clothes.Alone and quietly left.
Although he kept saying that he didn't know where the queen had gone, and he was worried about how difficult it would be for her to be a weak woman alone, but the fact was that Duanmu Youning had already told him before leaving, that the first stop of her trip would be the Killing Gate General Altar.
Although he has passed the position of the leader of the alliance to Dugu Wei, Duanmu Youning is still the person who kills the door, and is the sister of the current door master Dugu Wei.
Therefore, she had already planned to go to the Killing Gate Altar for a few days after leaving the palace, and also took this opportunity to catch up with those old friends, and then decide the next step according to the specific situation.
Of course, if it weren't for knowing that she had such a safe place to go, how could Tanglin Guyun rest assured that Duanmu Youning would leave alone.
Seeing her coming, Duguwei and the others were really pleasantly surprised, and it was a warm hospitality, and a warm greeting, and the excitement was beyond the description of pen and ink.
It was only at this time that Dugu Wei suddenly remembered the most important question: "By the way, why did you come alone?
The smile on Duanmu Youning's face slowly disappeared.After a moment of silence, he shook his head with a bitter smile: "You are in a corner.I don't know the situation in the palace.I don't know how things have changed......
She briefly recounted what had happened in the past few years, but her tone had become unusually calm, as if she were telling someone else's story.
However, her calm does not mean that Duguwei and the others can also change their faces. Hearing that the ministers actually ungrateful drove her, a great hero, away mercilessly.
"It's too much."
"Those stubborn old things, how dare you do this, go, we will go into the palace, and avenge you."
"That's right, let those old things kneel in front of you and plead guilty to you, or else there will be no forgiveness."
"Yes, that's it, let's go, we'll go right away."
Duanmu Youning was already moved to the point of seeing this, and he had to get up and stop them: "Okay, everyone, calm down, in fact, I left on my own, not to be driven away by them, just by them, I don't have that much ability."
"That's not going to work either." Dugu Wei shook his head unceremoniously: "If it weren't for their persecution, how could you leave on your own, you have to settle accounts with them."
"Don't I want to embarrass the emperor?" Duanmu Youning sighed. You also heard it just now.The emperor doesn't even want the throne in order to protect me.He wants to accompany me to wander Ke Zhengyan.In that case.How can I bear to let him be caught in the middle and be in a dilemma.Come on.Don't get excited.Sit down first."
Everyone was helpless, and then they hummed and chirped and sat down again.Dugu Wei nodded with satisfaction: "The emperor did a good job this time.I admire it.If he also misunderstands you like those old stubborns.Look at how I clean him up.I don't care if he's the emperor or not."
The rest of the people also nodded. Dugu Wei had already continued: "Since this is the case, you can rest assured to live here. This was originally your home.
