Chapter 42: Quarantine Camp

Yi'er glanced at Du Ziwu and said with some doubts: "Father, my daughter is a little puzzled, King Tang only came to the three northern states for disaster relief, even if his father has different opinions from him in politics, he will not be like now, water and fire are incompatible!" Isn't there a reason for this? ”

Du Ziwu glanced at Yi'er approvingly, and said: "In fact, the biggest difference between my father and Tang Wang is on the disposal of refugees, now that the plague has been initially controlled, my father advocates that the refugees in the isolation camp be treated separately according to the situation, those refugees who do not have symptoms of time can be released directly, those with mild symptoms can be moved out of the isolation camp and resettled, and the seriously ill ones will still stay in the isolation camp for further observation!" However, on the grounds that the plague was a matter of human life, the king of Tang insisted on maintaining the original state of the isolation camp until the plague was completely controlled, and did not agree to release people from the isolation camp! ”

"At first, my father only thought that King Tang was thinking that it was because of the plague, so he insisted on it, although it sounded a little unkind, but it was always considered from the overall situation, and it was understandable, but later, my father learned that there were other reasons behind King Tang's insistence on killing by mistake rather than being reckless!"

"Other reasons?"

Du Ziwu nodded and said, "At the beginning, as soon as His Royal Highness King Tang arrived in Beikai as a disaster relief messenger, he killed the then Lianzhou Governor Wang Hongwang on the charge of ineffective disaster relief. Everyone knows this, but few people know that in fact, Wang Hong has been a person of Tang Wang for a long time! ”

"Wang Hong is the person of the king of Tang, but the king of Tang killed him, there is ...... in this"

"The cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks, and so it has been since ancient times. Although we don't know what King Tang killed Wang Hong for, but that's all there is to it! ”

Yi'er thought for a while and said, "Could it be that the matter of the isolation camp is still related to the dead Lord Wang?" ”

Du Ziwu said: "Although Wang Hong died, he left a secret letter, which in addition to detailing his collection of wealth for the Tang King over the years and the eradication of dissidents, the most important thing is an account book, which is the silver money exchange between him and the Tang King over the years and a number of bills. This secret letter and account book were originally in the body of Wang Hong's only son Wang Jiang, after Wang Hong's death, although Wang Jiang left a life, but without Wang Hong's dependence, he soon became a refugee, and was arrested by officers and soldiers outside the city and taken to the isolation camp! This Wang Jiang was originally a gentleman, where could he stand the life of the isolation camp, and it didn't take long for him to die in the isolation camp. Wang Jiang died when he died, but the secret letter and account book also disappeared with Wang Jiang's death! ”

Yi'er said: "His Royal Highness King Tang obviously also knows about the secret letter, he is worried that after the refugees in the isolation camp are released, the secret letter will be exposed, and even reach the heavens, so he doesn't care about the lives of hundreds of people, and is unwilling to open the isolation camp and let the innocent refugees out?" ”

Du Ziwu nodded and said, "Although the secret letter can't be found, King Tang believes that as long as the isolation camp is still isolated, the letter will not flow out." ”

"But is he going to be quarantined forever?"

Du Ziwu sighed, looked at Yi'er and said: "Being able to isolate for one day is one day, one more day, and one more day for King Tang to find the secret letter, and..." ”

Yi'er was stunned, looked at Du Ziwu in disbelief, and muttered, "Does he want to ...... How dare he? That's hundreds of lives? ”

Du Ziwu shook his head and said: "Kite is smart, after all, she is young, because her father shouldn't have said these pickled things, alas! What are hundreds of lives? In the eyes of you and me, it is a big thing, but in the eyes of King Tang, I am afraid that it is just a matter of one order from him! ”

Yi'er bit her lower lip and said, "Father, those refugees are innocent, they ......"

Du Ziwu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Iris, I should do my best for my father to take care of the refugees in the isolation camp!" ”

Yi'er sighed, pondered for a while, and said: "What King Tang wants to get is nothing more than that secret letter and account book, but what is the purpose of him not going to the quarantine camp to find out, and coming to our mansion to guide Zhu Gongzi?" ”

This question was first asked by Du Ziwu, and this started this series of topics, after such a big circle, it is natural that she will return to this original question in the end!

Du Ziwu said: "How did the kite think that Wang Hong and the secret letter of this father knew? ”

Yi'er was stunned, and looked at Du Ziwu with some shock: "Could it be that these are all revealed to his father by Zhu Gongzi?" ”

Du Ziwu nodded and said: "In addition to Wang Hong, Zhu Gui is also a person of the Tang King, before they had a prefect and a fellow acquaintance, and under the embarrassment, they turned the entire Lianzhou into the private territory of the Tang King, winning the hearts of the people for him, and collecting money!" Zhu Youzhen is Zhu Gui's eldest son, and Zhu Youzhen was aware of what Zhu Gui did, so he learned about the secret letter and the quarantine camp in advance! ”

After a pause, Du Ziwu said again: "Don't be surprised why Zhu Youzhen would fight against his father!" Zhu Gui's pet concubine and killing his wife is not a secret in Beikaicheng, because Zhu Gui loves Aunt Tao and treats his wife and son harshly over the years, the father-son relationship between Zhu Gui and Zhu Youzhen has long been exhausted, even if Zhu Youzhen still has a little blood and family affection, but he has to think about it for his mother-in-law Tian! Over the years, Zhu Gui only knows that the dragon is attached to the phoenix, and he doesn't know how to converge at all, and when the East Window incident happens, it is only a matter of time before the East Window incident happens, speaking of which, Zhu Youjian is a good offspring, and his confused father is completely different, he thinks that in the future, Zhu Gui will happen, and he and his mother will not be implicated in the condition to surrender to his father, his heart is pitiful, and his feelings are lamentable! ”

Yi'er said: "Has my father ever confirmed that what Zhu Gongzi said is really the truth?" ”

"Don't worry, my father has sent someone to investigate carefully, Zhu Youzhen should be sincere, and when the Tian family passed the house, your mother also knocked on the side, there will be no fake."

Yi'er naturally believes in Du Ziwu's eyesight and ability, and hearing Du Ziwu say this, it can be regarded as a relief, but for Zhu Youzhen, she always has a deep guard for no reason, and feels that this person cannot be trusted.

Du Ziwu looked at Yi'er and asked: "Knowing the beginning and end of these things, then think about it again, what is the purpose of His Royal Highness King Tang today?" ”

Yi'er said: "My daughter thinks, maybe Zhu Gongzi got too close to his father during this time and attracted the attention of King Tang, so I made a scene today, I want to see the reaction of my father and Zhu Gongzi!" ”

Du Ziwu bowed his head, the praise in his eyes became more and more prosperous, and said: "I think so for my father." When the time comes, whether it is for his father's categorical refusal, Zhu Gongzi will not be able to get off the stage, so he will feel guilty, or he is suspicious of his father, suspecting that Zhu Gongzi is having some thoughts that he should not have, which can play a role in sowing discord. And no matter how things develop, for King Tang, there is no loss, so why not do such a good thing? ”

Yi'er thinks about it, this is really the case, King Tang only needs to pick such a head, and when the time comes, whether Du Ziwu is suspicious of Zhu Youzhen or Zhu Youzhen has a mustard for Du Ziwu, for Tang Wang, his purpose will be achieved! Fortunately, at that time, Zhu Youzhen had a resolute attitude, only saying that the two doors were not right, and the household was not right, so he didn't have this idea to refuse, otherwise the matter was really difficult to handle, but at that time, Zhu Youzhen's words were sharp, which made Tang Wang very angry, and finally went even more angrily, Zhu Gui is Tang Wang's person, this fire Tang Wang is afraid that it will attack Zhu Gui's head, but after all, Zhu Gui is Zhu Youzhen's father, and after Tang Wang's anger, will Zhu Gui be counted on Zhu Youzhen's head?

Yi'er was a little worried about Zhu Youzhen.

Du Ziwu said again: "Actually, a few days ago, my father got a message!" ”

Yi'er looked up.

Du Ziwu smiled: "It's not bad news! It was said by a refugee in the isolation camp, saying that before Wang Jiang's death, an outsider had sneaked into the isolation camp! ”

"Isn't the quarantine camp guarded and patrolled by the army of the West Direct Battalion? How can outsiders sneak in so easily? ”

"Naturally, it won't be easy. It's just that the refugee who said the news didn't know who the person who sneaked in, and he didn't see the front, only the back from a distance, it was a tall and burly man in black, and he was sure that this man in black had been in contact with Wang Jiang. ”

"So, the secret letter and account book left by Wang Hong may no longer be in the quarantine camp?"

"There is indeed this possibility, otherwise the total number of isolation camps is so large, how could Tang Wang and Wei Ling's people keep looking for it and not find it!"

"Father, in this case, we can leak this news to King Tang, if he believes that the secret letter and account book are no longer in the isolation camp, naturally he will no longer oppose the lifting of the isolation camp, then ......"

Du Ziwu shook his head with a smile and said, "How can things be so simple? With Tang Wang's personality, he would rather kill by mistake than let go, as long as he doesn't find what he wants for a day, he won't regress for a day in the quarantine camp! ”

Yi'er sighed and didn't answer.

Du Ziwu said: "Don't talk about King Tang, I will keep you for my father and your mother today, there is one more thing, we discussed it, and we decided to tell you earlier!" ”

Yi'er was stunned and looked at Li, who was sitting on the side and had not spoken.

The Li family looked at Yi'er lovingly, and said, "What we are going to tell you is about your grandmother and the Qingxiang Marquis Mansion!" ”

Yi'er has long felt that the relationship between Du Ziwu and his wife and the Qingxiang Hou Mansion is a little strange, it seems to be a little stiff, although it is not incompatible, but it is definitely not good, according to this relationship, the long house has found the concubine, and the Hou Mansion is enough to say casually, but today Mrs. Tai sent someone to send her such a heavy meeting gift, this kind of piece of piece, all of them are full of weirdness!
