Chapter 651: Who Could It Be?
"Full of flowers!"
Zhao Zhiyu looked at Hua Man standing not far away, and ran to her in surprise. "It's great that you're okay, everyone, where have everyone else gone?"
Hua Man also had palpitations when she thought of the fire before, and she choked up: "Last night, thanks to someone who said that the mountain was on fire, he took us to hide in a cave at the bottom of the mountain, otherwise, otherwise...... The slave and maid will never see the princess again. ”
Zhao Zhiyu knew that everyone was fine, and the breath she had been holding in her heart was finally relieved, and she sat on the ground as soon as her body became weak. "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, where are they now?"
"They are still in the cave, everyone didn't find the princess last night, they were so anxious, and then the person who saved us said that the princess also fled to the mountain, and the big guy was relieved."
Zhao Zhiyu thought that the person who saved them last night should be the person left by Li Changqing, there is a fire on the mountain, even if it is set on fire and wants to burn a large area, it will take a certain amount of time, if someone finds it in time, everyone can escape, just like last night.
The Plague Mountain was burned by a sudden fire, and when the people in the city were happy, there was news from outside the city that the mountain was burned but the people on the mountain were fine, which shocked everyone.
There are good things and they even went to the plague mountain to join in the fun, looking at the burned bare mountain, they don't believe it, the mountain has been burned like this, why are the people on the mountain still alive?
Emperor Kang Lin had gotten the news a day earlier, and his mood was very complicated, especially when he knew that Qin Yiyan was also with those people now, his expression looked very ...... Give food for thought.
At least Father-in-law Guixi thinks so, even if he has been with Emperor Kang Lin for so many years, he can't figure out what the emperor thinks in his heart.
"Your Majesty, the patients on the Plague Mountain are still alive, and King Heng asked people to pass the word back and say that the princess said that malaria can be cured, but it takes time, I hope the emperor will not give up on those patients who want to live, those people are also your people."
Emperor Kang Lin's brows trembled. "Can she cure malaria?"
Guixi's father-in-law bowed and said, "Yes, that's what the forbidden army who came back to spread the word said. ”
"Hmph, she can afford to look up to herself, it's malaria, she thinks it's a cold and fever and can be cured by taking two pills?"
"Didn't Lord Wang send a message that the princess secretly went to the prince to see him that night."
Emperor Kang Lin tugged at the corners of his mouth and didn't make a sound for a long time.
Guixi's father-in-law also closed his voice with interest, he knew that the emperor must be weighing the pros and cons at this time.
After waiting for a while, Father-in-law Guixi glanced at the hourglass on the side and said in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, it's almost time to go to the early court."
Emperor Kanglin came back to his senses and stood up. "Let's go."
In the court, the ministers were waiting inside and outside the hall early.
As soon as Emperor Kang Lin arrived, he stepped forward to salute one after another.
As soon as Emperor Kanglin's buttocks fell, a minister stood up with an excited face. "Your Majesty, the fire of heaven is coming, and it wants to burn the demons in the world who are infected with evil diseases, but these demons have escaped, this is a warning from God to my Great Qin, if I can't get rid of those demons as soon as possible, my Great Qin is in danger!"
Emperor Kanglin's brows trembled violently.
"Lord Zhang, haven't you read too much of the book, what kind of demons in the world, they are just innocent and sick people."
"Lord Wang, this is no joke, the plague mountain has been fine for so many years, why was the mountain burned as soon as the malaria broke out this time, isn't this a warning from heaven? Those people who are suffering from malaria deserve to die, should they be allowed to harm innocent people? "This Lord Zhang is the hard stone among the officials, but if he recognizes the reason for death, he will be hard with you all the way, if Emperor Kang Lin doesn't listen to him, he can see him every day, which is annoying.
"I heard that those patients have improved under the treatment of Princess Heng in the past few days...... Does this mean that it is possible to cure the disease? "It was Jiang Nan's father who stood up to speak, Jiang Nan is his beloved young son, even if he is sick now, even if he dies, he hopes that the child will die of illness instead of being forcibly killed by others.
"Lord Jiang, in the hundreds of years since the founding of Great Qin, there have been many outbreaks of malaria, but none of them can be cured, even if it is a famous doctor in the world, does Lord Jiang think that we will be exceptions?"
Lord Zhang's words made Master Jiang unable to refute, and no one dared to guarantee that they were exceptions, or that everyone present felt that there would be no miracles.
"Wechen implored the emperor to order all patients with malaria to be strangled so as not to infect more people." Lord Zhang shouted, knelt down in front of Emperor Kang Lin, and slammed his head on the cold floor, like a heavy hammer smashing into everyone's hearts.
The voice fell, the hall seemed to have been pressed the pause button, the hall was so quiet that the needle could be heard, now they all knew that King Heng was with those patients, if Emperor Kang Lin ordered to kill, then King Heng would definitely die, can the emperor really harden his heart and give this order?
Just when everyone felt that this silence was suffocating, Emperor Kang Lin spoke quietly. "Mrs. Li."
As soon as Emperor Kang Lin spoke, Mrs. Li knew that he was going to be unlucky. "Wechen is here."
"You told me before that you believed in Princess Heng's medical skills and asked me to give her ten days?"
Mrs. Li "......" he didn't, he didn't know, he didn't say anything!
"Your Majesty, Princess Heng is indeed a skilled doctor." Mrs. Li's answer was ambiguous, there was no way, what made him take the blame was to be on the pilgrimage, that is, he was as old as he had to admit it honestly.
"What do you think about ten days, to keep all the sick people in one village?" Emperor Kang Lin expressed satisfaction with Taifu Li's cooperation and turned to look at the other ministers. "Lord Zhang is right, since the beginning of the Great Qin Dynasty, no one has been cured of malaria, so when Mrs. Li mentioned this matter to me, I was also very hesitant."
"Your Majesty, why hesitate here?" Lord Zhang lifted his red and swollen forehead, and looked distressed.
Kang Lindi nodded. "Well, I didn't hesitate before I came to the court, after all, this is about the people of Great Qin, but as soon as Lord Jiang said it just now, I hesitated again, you say, whose opinion should I adopt?"
Mrs. Li lowered his eyes silently, the emperor has never been an indecisive person, let alone a person who likes to talk nonsense, he clearly wants to expand the back-up team.
Master Jiang is also an old man, he tasted it and found out the deep meaning of Emperor Kanglin, if it was usual, he would never say anything, but this is about his son's life, as an old father, he really can't watch his son die like this.
"Your Majesty, Weichen implores you to give Princess Heng ten days, if under Princess Heng's treatment, malaria can be cured, it will be a blessing for the entire Great Qin!"
"Weichen also implored the emperor to give Princess Heng some time."
"The ministers seconded the proposal."
Gradually, some ministers stood up, everyone was not stupid, they all understood that Emperor Kang Lin wanted to do this, but now he needed a step that could make him speak justifiably, everyone still had to go on, and few were willing to be a leading bird like Lord Zhang.
Master Zhang looked at the ranks one by one, but few of them supported him, so angry that his blood flowed backwards, his two eyes rolled, and he fainted directly.
Looking at Master Zhang, who had fainted, Emperor Kang Lin was moved. "Lord Zhang has really worked hard for Daqin, Guixi quickly let people carry Lord Zhang down, and let the imperial doctor take a good look at Lord Zhang."
"Yes."
The matter of giving Zhao Zhiyu ten days to treat malaria was settled when Master Zhang was dizzy.
After Zhao Zhiyu gave the patient a follow-up on the Zhuangzi, Emperor Kanglin's decree arrived.
Zhao Zhiyu knelt down in surprise to accept the order.
"Princess, the emperor said, after ten days, I hope to see all the patients have obvious improvements, if someone can be cured, it would be better, the emperor feels sorry for you and King Heng, this is to do everything possible to keep the two."
The one who came to pass the message was Guixi's father-in-law's new apprentice named Bazi's little father-in-law, who was wearing a cloth towel on his face, and his speech was so humming that Zhao Zhiyu felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
She now had a hunch that Emperor Kang Lin had deliberately thrown her to the Plague Mountain, just to see if she could cure the disease!
This bad old man is very bad!
No matter how he tried to make Emperor Kanglin a villain in his heart, Zhao Zhiyu could only accept the holy decree with a respectful face. "My father-in-law told the emperor that the concubine would definitely do her best to treat the sick."
The eighth son's father-in-law looked at Zhao Zhiyu with a calm expression, and secretly said that she could really be cured, otherwise how could she be calm and relaxed at this time. "The slave must have uploaded this to the emperor, and the slave has to go back to reply, so he will leave first."
After the eighth son's father-in-law left, Zhao Zhiyu turned around and threw the holy decree into Hua Man's hand.
"Princess, is the emperor going to take our lives?" Hua Man asked, holding the holy decree.
Zhao Zhiyu paused, turned her head and raised her eyebrows to look at her. "Why do you say that?"
Hanamitsu blinked. "Didn't the emperor let people set fire to the mountain that night? Many people smelled the smell of tung oil, and everyone said that if someone hadn't done it on purpose, there would have been no fire on the mountain. ”
Whether the fire on the mountain was man-made or accidental, Qin Yiyan had already found someone to investigate this matter, and after everyone was placed on Zhuangzi, she had been busy taking care of the patients and forgot about it.
"Everyone thinks the emperor wants our lives?"
Hanamitsu nodded. "Yes, everyone says that we are cursed people, and we should not live in this world."
"Nonsense, this is no different from other diseases, you tell everyone not to think too much, the fire on the mountain will definitely be investigated, don't speculate before the truth comes out."
"Yes, slaves and maids shouldn't be cranky, but if this fire wasn't set by the emperor, who would it be?"
Zhao Zhiyu raised her eyes to look at the sun that was gradually setting in the west, and squinted her eyes slightly. "yes, who could it be......"
