Wei Qianlan and Gu Ningyan calmly ate dinner, waiting to see the search results of the catchers.

After the search was completed, the hunters returned to Lord Zhuo's side, and whispered, "My lord, there is no such thing as a plague person. ”

When Lord Zhuo heard that he didn't find it, his heart suddenly lost his heart, and he still remained calm on the surface, "Thank you King Lan for your convenience, it may be that the news is wrong, please understand King Lan and the princess, and the minister will leave with his subordinates." ”

"It's okay Lord Zhuo, you are also responsible, this king should give you convenience, we are all the emperor's courtiers." Wei Qianlan drank tea after the meal and responded politely.

"Thank you again Lord Lan, the minister retired." Lord Zhuo couldn't stay for a moment, and hurriedly left with his subordinates.

"Well, Master Zhuo walks slowly, don't send it."

Wei Qianlan looked at the back of Lord Zhuo leaving, and said, "Thanks to your instructions, Zhuo Kai didn't find the slightest mistake in the palace, otherwise, the emperor would definitely identify the root cause in the Lan Palace." ”

Gu Ningyan smiled lightly, she had already calculated that someone would come, because the prince would never let go of this opportunity.

Mo Yang hurriedly walked over, "Back to the prince, the princess's words, the subordinates have investigated clearly, the plague man who appeared in front of the palace this morning is a hunter in Liuxia Village outside the city, according to his family, he has been missing for half a month, and he has not returned home, and that village is now about to become a dead village, everyone seems to be infected, the doctor does not dare to go in, and the people inside are trapped and can't come out." ”

After listening to Mo Yang's words, Gu Ningyan snorted coldly, "I see, it seems that someone did this deliberately." ”

Wei Qianlan frowned and asked again, "Then have you found out where he disappeared last time?" ”

"The incompetence of the subordinates has not yet been investigated." Mo Yang made an apology to his father and princess.

Gu Ningyan waved his sleeves and got up, patting Mo Yang's shoulder, "Don't blame yourself, if the other party can easily let you find out, then things won't be difficult, let's rest first, and everything will be talked about tomorrow." ”

"Thank you, Princess." Mo Yang was ordered to leave.

"It seems that someone is assassinating the Lan Wangfu behind your back, you have to be careful." Ling Ningshuang left this sentence as she was about to leave to rest.

After returning to the room, Gu Ningyan lay down and asked Wei Qianlan, who was sleeping on the couch next to him, "Lord Wang, who do you think will harm the palace?" Or is it hurting you? Or is it harming me? ”

Wei Qianlan was silent for a moment before he spoke softly: "The only people who want to harm me are people in the palace." ”

"The people who want to harm me are also in the palace, and there are also people outside the palace, so the people behind them are targeting the two of us." Gu Ningyan sat up and said to Wei Qianlan's slightly closed eyes on the couch.

Wei Qianlan slowly opened her eyes when she heard her words, and her gaze moved away from the placket on her chest, "It's useless to guess, only when you see the truth can you make a conclusion." ”

"Well, I can't wait, but I'm not going to let you get the plague."

Gu Ningyan's very firm eyes made Wei Qianlan's heart warm, and his face suddenly became slightly hot when he looked at Gu Ningyan's flashing bright eyes.

And Gu Ningyan on the other side, Gu Ningyan, who was staring at him at the moment, was also a little visible

Shy, he turned around and lay down directly, "Sleep, I'll talk about it tomorrow." ”

"Hmm."

Following.

Court.

The emperor listened to the arguments of the ministers below, and reprimanded him, "Stop, can I say a few words?" ”

The ministers were stopped by the emperor's reprimand, and the restless voices immediately stopped.

After coughing lightly, the emperor spoke: "I want you to tell you about the plague in the imperial city, what do you think you are making a fuss about?" ”

After the emperor reprimanded, he then asked. "What about Lord Yazhuo of the Capital Mansion?"

Zhuo Kai quickly walked out and stepped forward to reply, "The minister is here." ”

"You are in charge of the three yas of the capital, can you tell me what's going on?"

Swallowing the uneasiness in his heart, Lord Zhuo replied: "If you go back to the emperor, there are already many people in the city who have a high fever, and the minister must have arranged for the imperial doctor to go out of the palace for treatment and stop the spread of the plague." ”

"I will order that Imperial Doctor Feng assist you in finding the spread of the plague

The source? ”

"According to the people, the first situation in the city was discovered in front of the gate of the Lan Wang's Mansion." Although Zhuo Kai did not find any traces in King Lan's mansion, he still answered truthfully according to the information.

"Father, what Lord Zhuo said is that after the plague appeared, the sons also arranged for someone to investigate, and many people said that in the early morning of Uncle Lanhuang's house, a plague person was sent away, and then the imperial city spread." The prince also replied to the emperor according to Lord Zhuo's wishes.

"Really?" When the emperor heard the message of Lord Zhuo and the crown prince, he was immediately uneasy, how could it be in the Lan Palace.

"Your Majesty, the minister also took someone to the Lan Wangfu last night to inquire and search, but did not find the source of any plague, the minister is incompetent, please ask the emperor to be guilty." Lord Zhuo was anxious to tell the emperor what happened last night.

After listening to the words of the crown prince and Lord Zhuo, King Zhen stepped forward and said. "Father, Uncle Lan will definitely not be the one who caused the spread of the plague, and I ask my father to investigate."

The prince's mocking gaze fell on King Zhen's body, "Brother Emperor, we know that you have a good relationship with Emperor Lan, but this time is no longer Guan."

It is a question of whether it is good or not, but the lives of thousands of people in the capital. ”

"Prince, are you suspicious of Emperor Lan and Aunt Lan when you say this?" King Zhen replied to the prince's words with cold eyes.

"This palace didn't say that it was Uncle and Aunt Lan, what I mean is, since the people have pointed out that it is the Lan Palace, why don't we investigate this matter thoroughly."

The more King Zhen listened, the more reluctant he became, and angrily pointed at the prince angrily, "Speaking of which, the prince, you just want to find trouble with Uncle Lanhuang." ”

The crown prince snorted coldly, "Yes, this palace will definitely not let go of the Lan Palace." ”

In the court, the emperor and the ministers listened to the dispute between the crown prince and King Zhen, and no one said anything to stop them.

The emperor listened to the sound of the dispute, and his eyes were full of complicated emotions, "Shut up, is it enough, the prince and King Zhen don't quarrel, I have decided to hand over the affairs of the Lan Wangfu to King Zhen to do, you go to the Lan Wangfu to inquire and check, and ask if your imperial uncle has this matter, the prince will focus on stopping the occurrence of the plague, and retreat from the court." ”

"Father!" The crown prince wanted to speak again, but the emperor had already gotten up and left, so he had to shut up.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, all the ministers felt the anger of the prince, and Prime Minister Gu Cheng, who got along well, did not dare to step forward to say more, and left after a moment's hesitation.

The crown prince followed King Zhen out of the court hall, "Brother Emperor, don't go." ”

King Zhen stopped when he heard the prince's words, and asked with slightly angry eyes, "Is there anything else with the prince?" ”

"Heh, eldest brother, you don't need to be angry with this palace, in fact, there is nothing to do, I just want to remind the eldest elder brother that you should handle the matter of Uncle Lan Emperor impartially, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."

"Don't bother the prince, you should think more about how to stop the spread of the plague." After King Zhen replied to the prince's words, he quickly left the palace.

Gu Ningyan rushed to Liuxia Village outside the city with Ling Ningshuang early, according to Mo Yang's investigation, the man with the plague belonged here.

When she stepped into the village, a strong smell of death came into Gu Ningyan's snort, and she covered her nose and walked into the village.

Ling Ningshuang frowned and asked her, "What's wrong with you, why are you covering your nose?" ”

Gu Ningyan knew that Ling Ningshuang couldn't smell ghosts, so he didn't either

Explain more, just say that the smell is different here.

Ling Ningshuang stretched her neck and sniffed, but still didn't smell anything, "How can there be, why can't I smell it?" ”

"I told you not to come, you have to come, it's okay now, if something really happens, how can I explain to you Tanglin." Gu Ningyan now especially wanted to send Ling Ningshuang back or send him to Suicheng to annoy Ye Yuan.

"Of course I have to follow you if there is such an exciting thing, don't worry, my grandfather is a medicine farmer, and I also ate a lot of herbs when I was a child, so it can be said that I am immune to all poisons." Ling Ningshuang patted her chest and said proudly.

Gu Ningyan was too lazy to care about her, "Don't touch people and things, it's not good in case you get infected." ”

As they went deeper and deeper into the village, they found that the people around them were watching them vigilantly, some even closed their doors and windows, and some were lying on the ground crying in pain and crying for help.

"Princess Lan, look at that person's face is festering." Ling Ningshuang hugged Gu Ningyan's arm tightly, a little worried.

"It seems that all the people who can get out here have gone out, and there are only those who are left waiting to die." Gu Ningyan looked at the dead bodies on the ground.

At that moment, a dirty teenage child begged to kneel on the ground and cried at her, "Please save me." ”

"He's so pitiful, let's save him." Ling Ningshuang took pity on this child very much.

Gu Ningyan stopped Ling Ningshuang and stretched out his hand, and in an instant, the face of the person praying on the other side was exposed, and the person held his face with both hands and screamed in pain, and then black blood dripped out from his fingers.

Stompe...

"Grab it."

When Gu Ningyan heard the sound of stampeding, he was already surrounded by a group of guards, all of them were masked with white cloths, and they were holding weapons in their hands and pointing at themselves and Ling Ningshuang.

"Prince?" She looked coldly at the person who appeared in front of her, Wei Tingtang came at a really good time. It's just that he didn't see anyone coming in, but stood outside the main road at the entrance of the village and shouted inside.

"Aunt Huang, I didn't expect it to really have anything to do with you at this time." Without waiting for Gu Ningyan to speak, the prince yelled inside, "Escort Princess Lan and Princess Ningshuang out." ”

"Yes."

"What's going on?" Ling Ningshuang asked Gu Ningyan beside him in confusion.

Gu Ningyan snorted coldly and glanced at her, "Are you stupid, we have fallen into the trap of the prince, and it has affected you, so I told you not to follow, you have to come, otherwise you won't be caught." ”

Ling Ningshuang understood, but she wasn't worried, but said indifferently, "It's okay, it's up to you to call the shots, besides, I don't believe that Lord Lan will let it go." ”

Gu Ningyan raised her eyebrows at her, "You're right, Wei Qianlan will come to save us." ”

After speaking, Gu Ningyan had already been escorted to the crown prince.

The prince was very proud to cover his white scarf and looked at the person who appeared in front of him, "Aunt Lanhuang, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless and use the life of a village to kill the imperial city?" ”

"The prince will frame him." Gu Ningyan smiled lightly and said briskly to the prince.
