Qi Ning's shot was crisp and neat, and he punched the guard in the abdomen, and the guard on the side was taken aback when he saw this, but his reaction was extremely fast, and he slashed at Qi Ning with a knife. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhao Wuxian was still two steps away from Qi Ning, and when he saw the guard raise his hand, he already knew that the man was going to swing the knife, but he had already rushed forward like an arrow off the string, and the big knife was unsheathed.

Seeing this, the other two guards of the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion drew their swords and rushed up, and the Jinyi Marquis guards behind Zhao Wushu also quickly drew their swords and stepped forward.

"Who dares to be presumptuous?" Qi Ning knocked the guard to the ground with a punch, Huo Ran raised his head and sneered: "If you commit the following crimes, even if you are from the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, this Marquis will be killed correctly." ”

His momentum was cold, and several guards were stunned.

At this moment, hearing the sound of "quack", the gate of the Marquis of Zhongyi's mansion opened a crack, poked out a head, and said in a deep voice: "What's the noise?" ”

Zhao Wuxian said in a loud voice: "The Marquis of Jinyi asks to see the loyal and righteous old marquis, there is a big matter to discuss!" ”

When the guards heard this, they were stunned at first, and then they all changed color.

They thought that Qi Ning was just an ordinary marquis, and he came to the third watch in the middle of the night, just to curry favor with the Marquis of Zhongyi, but they didn't expect that the person who came turned out to be the Marquis of Jinyi.

The relationship between the Marquis of Jinyi and the Marquis of Zhongyi is relatively harmonious at first thought, among the four marquises, although the Marquis of Zhongyi ranks first among the four marquis, but in the prestige of the government and the opposition, the Marquis of Zhongyi is obviously not as good as the Marquis of Jinyi.

After being stunned for a moment, the four guards knew that something was wrong, but they all knelt on one knee in an instant and said in unison: "I've seen Jinyihou!" ”

Two generations of Jinyi Marquis, are all famous generals of Da Chu, have a deep foundation in the military, and are deeply admired by the imperial soldiers, these guards are actually from the army, although they have not fought under the command of Jinyi Hou, but they are still very in awe of Jinyi Hou in their bones.

It's just that they never thought that the young man in front of them, who didn't look very inconspicuous, turned out to be the Marquis of Jinyi.

The door immediately opened, and a middle-aged man walked out of it, and arched his hand and said, "Master Hou, please come in, the villain will pass through the old Lord Hou!" "Invited Qi Ning in.

Qi Ning naturally didn't have time to worry about a few guards, so he entered the mansion and was taken to the lobby, in the dead of night, and the mansion was also very quiet.

Someone brought tea up, Qi Ning waited for a while, only to hear the sound of footsteps, turned his head to look over, only to see that an elderly man in a black robe had walked in from outside the door, his body was thin, but a big head, over sixty years old, his spirit was still quite healthy, his nose was slightly straight, whether it was hair or beard, it was black and white, white and black.

Qi Ning immediately stood up, the elder looked at Qi Ning's eyes, showed a hint of a smile, raised his hand and said, "Sit down and talk." He walked over and sat down on the main seat.

Qi Ning knew that this person must be Sima Lan, the loyal and righteous marquis of the current time.

He didn't expect that the first time he met Sima Lan would be in such a situation.

"The younger generation has seen the loyal old marquis!" Qi Ning inherited the Marquis of Jinyi, although he and the Marquis of Zhongyi were listed as one of the four marquis of the empire, and they were on an equal footing, but he also knew that whether it was his qualifications or the power in his hands, he was very different from the old man in front of him.

Sima Lan is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and he is the first generation of Zhongyi Marquis, among the four marquis, in addition to him and the old Marquis of Golden Dao are still alive, Wuxiang Marquis Su Yu is already the second generation of marquis, and Qi Ning is already the third generation.

The marquis is still the same marquis, but the person is no longer the same person.

Qi Ning knew that even if Qi Jing was alive, he would have to pay three respects to Sima Lan, not to mention himself, the third-generation Marquis of Jinyi.

Moreover, Sima Lan is a minister of Tuogu, and he has made miraculous contributions in the process of the new emperor's accession to the throne, if it were not for his strategy, Qi Ning doubted that the little emperor would be able to inherit the throne smoothly.

In front of such a powerful old minister, Qi Ning still showed his respect as much as possible.

Sima Lan also looked quite easy-going, waved her hand and smiled: "Don't be formal, you came to see me in the middle of the night, of course it won't be for no reason, I think it's something urgent, but it's okay." ”

He spoke crisply and neatly, not too much greeting, and in his tone, he obviously regarded Qi Ning as a junior.

On the way here, Qi Ning had actually organized the language, and said what happened at the moment, so that if Tang Nuo wanted to use the corpse to find a way to detoxify, Qi Ning naturally did not disclose it.

After hearing this, Sima Lan was not as shocked as Qi Ning expected, but frowned slightly and asked, "You mean, someone poisoned the beggar gang disciples in the capital, and then used the beggar gang disciples as a tool to spread the epidemic poison to the capital?" ”

Qi Ning nodded and said, "That's right." ”

Sima Lan stroked his black and white beard and asked, "Are you sure that it is really an epidemic virus, and it will spread rapidly?" Is it just a coincidence that some people happen to be suffering from this disease? ”

Qi Ning's expression was serious: "Old Marquis, I am very sure and sure, if nothing else, the infected people who are suffering from the worsening infection are already hundreds or thousands, but they have not yet had a seizure, according to the time, after dawn, that is, today, a group of patients who were infected earlier will start to have seizures." ”

"You say that after the poison, the patient is delirious and will attack anyone?" Sima Lan stared at Qi Ning, and was suspicious: "And after being injured by the attack, there is a high possibility of being infected?" ”

Qi Ning thought to himself that I had already said very clearly, time is getting more and more urgent, you old guy don't talk about your mother-in-law and mother-in-law, hurry up, but naturally you can't say it, you can only try your best to press the urgency in your heart, and said: "Old Marquis, I dare to guarantee that what I said is true, I came to see the old Marquis tonight, just hoping that the old Marquis can seize the last time and be ready to deal with possible riots." ”

Sima Lan was thoughtful, groaned slightly, and then said: "Don't worry, this matter is very important, and it can be solved without urgency." Motioned to Qi Ning to drink tea first, and then said: "What do you mean, do you want the old man to impose a grounding on the whole city overnight, and then mobilize troops and horses to prepare for prevention?" ”

"Yes." Qi Ning said: "In addition, we must find a special place to relocate, as sparsely populated as possible, if there is really a large-scale riot of infected people, in their delirious state, they must be forcibly detained, and until a cure is found, they must be temporarily imprisoned, so as not to affect more people." ”

At this time, someone moved to warm the stove and put it next to Sima Lan, on a cold winter night, it was really a little cold in this hall, Sima Lan stretched out his hand and roasted it on the stove, and then asked: "The old man doesn't believe your words, but ...... According to what you said, this epidemic virus has a time to worsen, and it is not an immediate attack of poisoning, so if there is a large-scale epidemic in the capital in the past few days, why does the Shenhou Mansion know nothing about this matter? The old man did not receive a report from the Shenhou Mansion. ”

Qi Ning frowned, thinking to himself, are you suspecting me of falsely reporting the news?

He sneered in his heart, secretly thinking that if the imperial city was not closed, Lao Tzu would go directly to the little emperor, and he would not come to you, and if Lao Tzu could mobilize troops and horses, he would not come over to talk to you for a long time.

But he knew very well in his heart that if he wanted to deal with it now, he could only ask this old guy to help.

Qi Ning was anxious tonight, not worried about a certain person, he didn't want to see many innocent people die under the epidemic, as long as there were fewer deaths, Qi Ning was willing to do anything.

"Old Marquis, this epidemic virus came quietly, and it has not appeared before." Qi Ning was a little unable to sit still, "The recent energy of the Shenhou Mansion may have been focused on other things, and few people will know how terrible this epidemic virus is before it completely breaks out." He finally stood up and arched his hand: "Old Marquis, time waits for no one, I implore the old Marquis to respond immediately, otherwise it will ......!" ”

Sima Lan stared at Qi Ning's eyes and said, "The old man knows that you are very anxious, but do you know that it is not a matter of words to mobilize troops and horses." The first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the whole city was under martial law and the implementation of the ban for a while, which has made many people feel that the rumors are loud, and you also know that at this time, the people in the city will be panicked. ”

"I know!"

"After the emperor ascended the throne, martial law was lifted, and the people in the capital eased up." Sima Lan said slowly: "Do you know what is the most important thing at this time? Naturally, it is peaceful, so that the people in Beijing feel peaceful, and the whole country of Dachu will be stable. The capital is the heart of my Great Chu, and it will affect the whole body, and any trace of wind and grass in the capital of Jianye will not only affect the situation of the whole country of my Great Chu, but even affect the situation of the whole world, do you understand this truth? ”

Qi Ning listened to his old-fashioned tone, a tone of elders and juniors, if it was a normal time, he really wouldn't care much, but in this kind of urgency, this old guy was still slowly arguing with himself about some uselessness, a little annoyed in his heart, and couldn't help but say: "What does the old marquis mean is that in order to ensure the stability of the capital, you can't mobilize troops and horses, and wait for things to happen before dealing with them?" ”

Sima Lan frowned slightly, and seemed to be a little displeased with Qi Ning's tone, but still said: "Young people are young and vigorous, and if they want to do something, it is understandable. But think twice about everything, and you yourself have said that such a plague has never happened before, why did it suddenly appear at this time? The Shenhou Mansion didn't know anything. Since the founding of the country, the old man has never seen the occurrence of infectious diseases in the capital, if he takes the liberty to transfer troops, the whole city is under martial law, the people in the city who have just calmed down will inevitably panic again, and the old man is only worried that once the situation is tense, there will be people who have bad intentions. ”

Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, and instantly understood that in the final analysis, Sima Lan still considered the political situation, worried that the re-abstinence would lead to panic in the capital and allow hostile forces to take advantage of it.

He sneered in his heart, secretly thinking that you are careless, you are worried that the transfer of troops and martial law will make the people in the city panic, but you don't want to think that if the epidemic outbreak breaks out, the chaos in the capital will be ten times stronger than the panic caused by the transfer of troops and martial law.

Qi Ning thought to himself, this old guy seems to think that he has just inherited the title, and he has to make meritorious contributions and have to show something, so he is so positive, it seems that he does not believe in the theory of epidemic poison.
