Early in the morning of the second day, Li Wenyao changed into a noble court dress and came to the Linzheng Palace.

Everyone has stood in turn according to their ranks.

Standing in front of him was the fifth prince Li Zhen, and when he saw him, he said with a smile, "Seventh brother, I didn't expect you to come today, we may not have seen each other for a long time, your body is better?" ”

He also replied with a smile and said softly, "Thank you, Fifth Brother, I have eaten a few flavors of decoction today, and I have been much better." ”

"You take medicine all day long, it's not a long-term solution, as the saying goes, it's three points of poison, if you want me to say, you should still nourish it, a few days ago, the inner court just sent some bird's nest, and I'll find someone to send it to you, you eat one or two a day, it's also very useful for tonic body."

This Li Zhen and Li Wenyao have always had a good relationship, although he has the support of Yushitai behind him, but he is not very keen on competing for the throne, and he likes the art of gambling all day long, so the prince and others did not take him seriously.

"In this way, thank you to the fifth brother." Li Wenyao smiled and bent down slightly.

While talking, the eunuch outside the door shouted loudly, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!" ”

The noisy crowd was busy holding their breath, standing side by side, and greeting the prince with their waists.

After Li Gaotang came in, he looked around at the crowd with his hands behind his back, and he had a proud posture of being on top, although some of the ministers below did not show a dissatisfied look, but they were more or less complaining in their hearts.

"The emperor has arrived! Ministers early dynasty! Gonggong Li stood in the hall and shouted loudly.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The crowd hurriedly knelt down and made a pilgrimage.

"Let's be flat." The emperor walked slowly, sat on the dragon chair, looked at the neat crowd, and laughed twice, "This morning, there are two things I want to announce to all Aiqing, one is that the epidemic at this time has been quite effective, it can be said that God has blessed it, and the other is that in this epidemic, the herbs found by the prince have played a major role, and in order to commend it, I hereby have a jade dragon sword!" ”

When Li Gaoyu heard this, his eyes immediately released a bright light, this jade dragon sword is a sword that has followed the emperor for many years, and the preciousness can be seen, and now he is rewarded, which shows the favor of his father, so he quickly knelt on the ground to thank him, "Thank you father Longen!" must live up to the trust of his father! ”

The sixteenth prince and the fourth prince standing behind each other glanced at each other, and they all showed disdain, Li Yuan whispered, "Look at what he is proud of, it's just a sword." ”

Li Chengqian glared at him, "What do you know, this is the sword of my father's southern and northern wars, and he has never left his body for many years, he once said that this sword is the sword of the emperor, but the tiger and the dragon can be subdued, and now it is given to the prince, what do you think this means?" ”

Li Yuan was unconvinced, and snorted coldly, "So what, this time it just made him pounce, what will happen in the future, not necessarily!" ”

"Hey, sixteenth brother, it's not me talking about you, this time the epidemic, even the seventh brother went to Yixian in person, but you had to go to the limelight on the grounds of supervising the training of soldiers and horses in Xianzhou, but now it's good, and you were pounced on by the prince."

The two are equal, you say a word to me, no one wants to give in half a step back in momentum, fighting for many years, everyone understands in their hearts, either the west wind overwhelms the east wind, or the east wind overwhelms the west wind.

At this time, Li Wenyao's eyes were fluttering, standing in the last row of the princes, hidden among the ministers, on such an occasion, probably no one would notice him.

And at this moment, a panting little eunuch ran in outside the door, knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted breathlessly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not good!" Just now, there was news from outside that the plague in Yixian County had spread! Now even several towns at the foot of the imperial city have been infected, and it is said that some people in the palace have begun to have fever......"

"What?!" The emperor jumped up from the dragon chair, the green tendons on his forehead were clearly visible, and the ministers were also confused, and the court exploded up and down for a while.

"How is this good, if the plague spreads to the palace, won't even the emperor be in danger!"

"Yes, this party also said that the prince has controlled the epidemic, why did it spread so quickly overnight!"

The emperor roared sharply, "Gao Yu! Here's why! Yesterday came to report, didn't the plague have been controlled! Are you lying to me again? ”

"No, son-in-law no!" The prince also seemed to have been struck by five thunderbolts, knelt down with trembling legs, and the sweat on his head rolled down to the ground, "Yesterday, the imperial doctor returned to the palace and did tell his sons that the epidemic has been controlled, as for why it spread...... Erchen really doesn't know! ”

"You! You really don't let me worry for a moment! As he spoke, in a fit of rage, he threw a piece of the fold in his hand and threw it over hard, just hitting the prince's face, and everyone saw Long Yan angry, and they all knelt down, leaning over and not daring to make a sound.

At this time, Li Wenyao walked out and stepped forward, "Father, now is not the time to be angry, but to think about how to control the epidemic, if it is allowed to develop, I am afraid it will cause panic among the people, and at that time, the outcome is unpredictable." ”

The emperor nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, you are right, but ...... But at the moment we don't even know how the plague spreads! How to control! ”

Li Wenyao was not in a hurry, and said what he had guessed in his heart, "The prince said that the imperial doctor in this palace will enter the palace every day to report the epidemic to him, according to Erchen's thoughts, if this epidemic is not bred from the palace, it must be brought in from outside the palace, and now all the people who have been in and out of the epidemic area in recent days are isolated, and all palace people are ordered to sprinkle and disinfect and burn mugwort leaves to avoid the spread of the epidemic in the palace, in addition, from now on, people who enter and leave the palace must be strictly disinfected." ”

At this time, the emperor was already the master of the six gods, and seeing that Li Wenyao was talking so much, he hurriedly shouted to Gonggong Li beside him, "Go quickly, according to what the Seven Princes said, strictly enforce!" ”

He looked down at the prince who was still kneeling on the ground, and his anger was still calm, and he shouted, "You! Go back to the womb! You don't have to go out of the palace these days! With that, he got up and left the palace.

"Father! Father! Li Gaotang shouted anxiously behind him, but he didn't see the emperor turn back, he was secretly discouraged in his heart, and stood up from the ground in frustration.

At this time, the ministers had already dispersed, and they all went back to their homes to avoid the epidemic, and when they left, they all looked panicked and hurried.

"Seventh Prince, let's go back quickly......" The little eunuch beside him said with some concern, "You have always been weak, so don't go out." ”

Li Wenyao stood in place for a moment, raised his head, opened his lips lightly, and spit out a few words, "Get out of the palace immediately." ”
