Chapter XVIII: The Plague
"I'm done, does Your Highness have a way to deal with the Third Prince?"
Li Qingqing didn't smile, "There is a way, but you have to take your time." My third emperor's sister's father's family is very powerful, and he is as solid as a rock in the court, if you want to shake the rock, you can only rely on time to grind slowly. ”
Chen Changjun sighed, "Okay! She also wants to see the fall of the third prince as soon as possible, but now it seems that it will not be possible, forget it, just have this ending.
"What else does the prince need me to do now?"
"Confession, I still need you to record a confession!" For such a big matter, it is not okay to say nothing, and in addition, she has to come forward to testify in person.
Li Qingqing called the elite soldiers guarding outside the door and asked them to get pen and ink.
After Li Qingqing took the pen and ink, she closed the door again, and at this time she opened the black curtain of the window to let the sunlight in, so that it was convenient to pick up the pen and write.
Chen Changjun took the pen and paper, spread it out on a broken table, and then wrote down what he knew Li Qinglan did, and after writing, he signed his name and handed it to Li Qingqing.
Li Qingqing picked up the confession and looked at it, and after confirming that what was written was no different from what was described, he blew dry the ink, folded it and put it away.
At this time, it was already noon, and when Li Qingqing opened the door and went out, the elite soldiers on duty were taking turns to eat, and the aroma of food wafted over, making her hungry.
The elite soldiers on duty were a little embarrassed to eat, and thought, why don't you have a bite of it, Your Highness? But when you look down, you have eaten, and people won't eat it, so what should you do, or pretend not to see it and continue to eat with your head down?
That's a good idea.
Then a few elite soldiers who were eating turned around silently, turned their backs to Li Qingqing and continued to eat.
Li Qingqing: "......"
"Ahem! Go to the kitchen and bring a few dishes to the guy in the house! She swallowed her saliva and said a few words to the elite soldiers, before walking out completely.
After walking through this half-collapsed house, there was a big tent that had been destroyed, and the big tent had not yet been fully erected, so Li Qingqing had no shelter all the way, and she was very sunny, and she had to fold her hands in front of her forehead.
At this moment, an oil-paper umbrella fell from the sky, blocking the sunlight above and casting a shadow.
Li Qingqing looked sideways, Gongsun Fu came from nowhere, holding a long umbrella and merging into a street with her.
Gongsun Fu smiled sideways, warm and affectionate, "Your Highness has delicate skin, and you must take care of it carefully, so as not to spoil a good skin." ”
Li Qingqing wanted to laugh when she heard it, "Mr. loves it very much, no one else uses an umbrella, just you know that you want to use an umbrella!" ”
Gongsun Fu heard the ridicule, not only was he not unhappy, but his smile became stronger, and a pair of shallow pear vortices gradually swirled with the smile, and his eyes stole at her intentionally or unintentionally.
Li Qingqing didn't look at him, just teasing as he walked, and naturally he didn't see a line of sight falling on the top of his head.
"Since Mr. knows about Donglin Village and Xilin Village, he must have been in contact with the people, right?"
Li Qingqing thought of the civil rebellion and hadn't thanked him yet, so he couldn't help but bring up this topic.
Gongsun Fu did not deny it, "There is no less contact, especially after the tsunami." ”
"How?" Li Qingqing stopped and looked up at him, he focused on the last four words, thinking that there should be a story here, not as simple as Gongsun Fu who knew about treating the injured victims.
Indeed, Gongsun Fu told her a terrible thing solemnly and calmly, "Plague! In the aftermath of the tsunami, large vegetable fields were afflicted.
But the people cherished their own fruits and vegetables, and went to pick them in the mud, so they contracted the plague.
But rest assured, Your Highness is in the past. ”
"And this?" Li Qingqing tightened her eyebrows, she didn't even know anything about such a big matter, thanks to Gongsun Fu had already solved it, if it wasn't solved, maybe how many more people would die, then her sin would be even greater.
How so, and why is no one going to do it?
Li Qingqing's face became gloomy.
Gongsun Fu knew what she was thinking, and hurriedly explained, "It was concealed by me and Imperial Physician Shen, and it is not someone else's business."
Because the matter is so serious, if you let Your Highness know, you will definitely adopt the method of isolation. Then the entire disaster county will know about it.
When the time comes, it is more likely to cause panic and unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Imperial Doctor Shen and I decided to secretly isolate and secretly treat me.
Fortunately, God blessed us, we found a cure for the plague, we mixed medicine and food together, made a medicinal meal, and distributed a bowl to each person in the name of strengthening the spleen and stomach. ”
"That's the bowl!" Li Qingqing remembered the medicine and food she had drunk, there were big bones boiling in it, and a lot of medicine was put at the bottom of the bowl, although it tasted bitter and astringent, but there was also the fresh fragrance of meat.
Now I know that all this is the credit of Gongsun Fu and Imperial Doctor Shen.
Li Qingqing thought that when she first saw Gongsun Fu, she still wondered why this person who claimed to be a doctor, but she had never seen it, and now that she thinks about it, at that time, he should be busy with the plague with Imperial Doctor Shen, and it will be infectious, so it is inconvenient to show up.
Thinking about it like this, Li Qingqing's suspicions about him were dispelled a lot, and his eyes were only full of appreciation.
"Mr. can heal, and knows how to build, and he is so thoughtful, I think if I don't promote you to a suitable position, it's all mine."
Li Qingqing laughed.
Gongsun Fu smiled lightly, he didn't care very much about whether he was in the office or not.
The two of them were talking and laughing in the direction of the big tent, and they saw Ren Fei running in a hurry, "Your Highness, the magistrates of Weishan County and Liuzhou County are hurrying to the big tent and waiting in the big tent." ”
"What's going on?" Li Qingqing's brows, which were originally gradually stretched, furrowed slightly, Weishan County and Liuzhou County belong to the same prefecture as the coastal county, and they are also tsunami-affected counties, but the affected area is not large.
After Li Qingqing took over the important task of repairing the pond, she deliberately ignored the two county seats, she wanted to give the two county magistrates a chance to perform, this time, the two county magistrates came in a hurry, I was afraid that something terrible had happened, and she had to make a move.
Li Qingqing heard Ren Fei say that he didn't know, so he didn't ask at the moment, and hurried over to take a look.
Gongsun Fu knew that the prince was discussing a big matter, so he didn't want to ask, so he simply didn't go, but when Li Qingqing rushed to go, he stuffed the oil-paper umbrella in his hand to her, and solemnly explained, "No matter how strong the prince is, it is also a woman's family, and a woman's family must cherish herself even more." ”
Li Qingqing's heart trembled, the indescribable feeling spread, after thinking about it, she suddenly decided to call Gongsun Fu to listen to it, anyway, he always wants to join the ranks, and many people have a lot of staff officers.
Ren Fei was a little unhappy with this decision, but he didn't stop it in a hurry, so he led the way.
In the big tent, the anxiously waiting county magistrate saw Li Qingqing's first sight, and he fell to his knees in a hurry, "Lord Wang, something is wrong, there is a plague!" ”
