As he spoke, the emperor felt more and more tired.

He twisted his eyebrows, and said in a somewhat lazy voice: "If it is true that there are no infected patients in the city and the plague has subsided, then welcome him back."

After all, it's been so long, it's time to come back. ”

After that, the emperor appointed officials who went to Gushui City to inspect, and then announced his retreat from the dynasty.

This official is a very trusted minister of the emperor, with old qualifications, high rank, does not stand in line, has no favoritism, and is very neutral.

And he is very sleek, especially good at tai chi, ordinary people don't want to talk from him at all.

The emperor's intention to send this official is also very obvious.

He knew the different thoughts of these people in the court, and he also knew the forces of several parties under the surging dark tide.

He was just quietly watching before, and he didn't interfere, but he also wanted to let those forces check and balance each other, so as to avoid a situation like the former prince after one family became dominant.

And the emperor has not appointed a prince so far, just because he still has doubts in his heart, he is still hesitating, and he wants to see the performance of others.

Sending Lou Yunsheng to disaster relief this time is a test and an observation.

The plague occurred in the middle of the way, which was an unexpected thing.

However, in this way, Lou Yunsheng's performance in dealing with emergencies can be seen even more.

Therefore, the emperor naturally did not want this capable son to have an accident.

After thinking about all this, Lou Yunxian's heart became more and more uneasy.

However, it happened too suddenly, and King Duan evaded all possible reconnaissance methods, not only concealing the situation in Gushui City well, but also delivering the information to the imperial city accurately.

It's been more than two months!

He, Lou Yunxian, actually missed the best time to overthrow King Duan!

The bunch of rice buckets under your hands!

But the fault has been made, Lou Yunxian chopped up all the people and fed them to the dogs, and there is no way to make up for the consequences of this incident.

Lou Yunxian was so angry that his liver hurt.

He consulted with his men urgently, but he never came up with a good idea.

In the end, Lou Yunxian could only think of the moves he had used.

Assassinate.

The previous assassination failed, and Lou Yunxian had realized that he might be exposed.

Although his secret guards are strictly trained, and if they are caught, they will immediately swallow poison and commit suicide, but there is no guarantee that they will be foolproof.

Lou Yunxian has hidden himself for so long, and now he is ready to be exposed.

Besides, it's time to be exposed.

If he continues to hide, even his father will ignore him, the prince, then I am afraid that the position of the crown prince will be in the pocket of King Duan.

So Lou Yunxian immediately sent his most elite secret guards, ready to find an opportunity to kill Duanwang before the officials arrived in Gushui City.

Lou Yunxian knew that his younger brother's kung fu was very high, but his elite troops were all masters of assassination, and the number of missed shots in the past was only a handful.

Not only is he very good at kung fu, but he is also very good in other aspects.

For example, poisoning, drugged, tracking, and so on.....

Lou Yunxian's order to his secret guard was that he didn't necessarily have to go head-to-head, and that he would do whatever it took to get rid of King Duan.

It doesn't matter how bad the trick is, it's okay to even poison the water source and kill some innocent people.

Anyway, there was a plague some time ago, and the people who died should be regarded as sick and died.

In this way, it is just right to frame King Duan, saying that he is not doing well, and the plague has not been solved at all.

Thinking of this, Lou Yunxian showed a vicious smile.

It is best to poison an entire city, and then say that in order to prevent the spread of the plague, set fire to the city of Gushui.

Then all the evidence is gone.

His secret guard left with such a ruthless and difficult task.

At the same time, he also arranged some people on the road, wanting to delay the official's footsteps towards Gushui City, so that he could have more time to deal with Duanwang.

But unexpectedly, a few days later, all his secret guards sank into the sea, and there was no news.

Lou Yunxian waited anxiously and restlessly.

He then sent a second wave of Dark Guards.

The second wave of dark guards is not as strong as the first wave in all aspects, but now they can only use these people.

But unsurprisingly, none of the more capable people have been able to complete the task, and the worse secret guards are even more unlikely to succeed.

Lou Yunxian is like a red-eyed duke who has lost his eyes, and two consecutive defeats have not made him stop, but he continues to send more people, and keeps sending people to Gushui City, wanting to annihilate King Duan.

But the consequence of this is that the number of secret guards under him is getting smaller and smaller, and his whole person is becoming more and more crazy.

The people sent by Lou Yunxian to delay the pace of the officials succeeded, and the officials arrived in Gushui City two days later than expected.

But it didn't work.

Officials quickly confirmed that everything in Duanwang's letter was true.

He received the imperial privilege, and after making sure that the plague had receded, he welcomed King Duan back to the imperial city.

At the same time, the official also wrote a letter, ordering someone to send it back to the imperial city as soon as possible.

Lou Yunxian didn't have the courage to stop this letter.

Unless he dares to kill King Duan along with that official.

Don't say whether the emperor will know, even if Lou Yunxian has the courage, he doesn't have the ability.

After losing almost the entire elite Dark Guard, Lou Yunxian realized that he had no way to get rid of Duanwang now.

So more than half a month later, he saw Duanwang Lou Yunsheng again.

The gates of the imperial city were wide open, the streets were crowded with people, and the common people knew about the achievements of King Duan in Gushui City.

Not only did he succeed in controlling the floods and helping with disaster relief, but he also stayed in the city when the plague broke out and survived the difficulties with all the people.

Such an action, let alone a prince, even ordinary officials may not be able to do it.

From then on, the plague was no longer a mortal contagious disease, and there was a way for manpower to overcome it.

This alone is enough for the people to remember.

Not to mention that King Duan is so diligent and loves the people, working day and night, regardless of his own safety, he insists on advancing and retreating with the people.

In such an era of imperial power, the only thing the common people can rely on is a good leader and some good officials.

If the people above are greedy for pleasure and extravagance, and if the officials are corrupt and bribe-taking, and if they prey on the common people, then everyone will suffer.

To put it bluntly, it's a matter of luck.

Now that the common people have seen a prince who really thinks about them, they naturally want to worship him and embrace him.

People spontaneously welcomed Duanwang's triumph on both sides of the street, and some people even went out of their way to pick some flowers and threw them at Duanwang's motorcade as they passed by.

Yu Muhuai, who had worked hard all the way, was caught off guard by some petals.

On the back of the horse on the side, sitting was Yu Wenxue.
