Chapter 122: The Epidemic Spreads

The things sent by the emperor have bottomed out in less than three days.

Li Yanjing couldn't bear the people to starve and freeze.

He decided to go to Beijing to ask for something in person.

Li Yanjing hurried to Shangjing, and he knew that Shangjing had also experienced the epidemic in Shangjing.

When he arrived, it was already the middle of the day, just in time for the early dynasty.

He ran around for several days in a row, and the clothes on his body had already fallen into dust, and he didn't bother to change his clothes first, so he rushed directly to Qinghe Palace.

When he arrived, the emperor was discussing political affairs with the ministers.

When the emperor heard the chamberlain say that King Zhongyi was coming, his face instantly became unsightly.

"King Zhongyi, has the epidemic in Shucheng been controlled?"

The emperor saw that his hair was unkempt and his clothes were unclean, and his heart was even more dissatisfied, when did he even care about decency.

"Father, the son is here this time for the people of Shucheng, the current situation in Shucheng is very critical, the people have no food to eat, and there are no medicinal materials to use. ”

Li Yanjing knelt on the ground and appealed to the emperor about Shucheng's difficulties.

When everyone heard Li Yanjing's words, their eyes widened.

"King Zhongyi, did you come back a little earlier? A few days ago, our household department only prepared 200,000 taels of silver, 50,000 stone rice grains, and a large number of medicinal materials to be sent to Shucheng, why haven't you been there for a few days?"

Zhang Xianzhong, the head of the household department, was unwilling.

He still clearly remembers how uncomfortable he felt when he took out those things, why did he come to ask for things again, and what did he ask to take out?

"What the hell is going on?"

The emperor also felt strange.

"Father, son-in-law, son-in-law really didn't receive this. The only thing that Erchen received was 50,000 pieces of silver and 10,000 stone rice grains, and he didn't see the medicinal materials at all. ”

Li Yanjing was also surprised, why can't the number of the two match?

"Your Majesty, Wechen was wronged, and Wechen really prepared according to the number of items registered in the booklet. ”

Zhang Xianzhong knelt on the ground and proved to the emperor that he was really not corrupt.

"Is that so?"

The emperor looked at Zhang Xianzhong, he knew the tricks of those people, but they wouldn't do such a thing at this time.

"Your Majesty, the minister is really wronged. Presumably, it must be that Shu Cheng's condition is too serious, and there are too many people who are infected. King Zhongyi was too worried to have such a misunderstanding. ”

Zhang Xianzhong's words were that Li Yanjing was scared and ran back first.

How could the emperor not hear it.

"King Zhongyi, do you hear that?" the emperor looked at Li Yanjing again.

"Father, everything the son said is the truth, and I also ask my father to know it. Li Yanjing didn't care if he was wronged, he only asked the emperor to save the people of Shucheng now.

"Hmph, I think you are greedy for life and afraid of death, so you fled back by yourself. You don't have to go to Shucheng, go home. ”

The emperor didn't like it, and he was now full of suspicion about Li Yanjing, and told him to stay in Shangjing and not go to Shucheng.

Some people in the hall were uncomfortable when they heard this, but the king of loyalty and righteousness was a person who had been on the battlefield, how could he be greedy for life and afraid of death?

"Father, father, you must save the people of Shucheng. ”

This is the first time that Li Yanjing has been so rude, and he has not been afraid of it once when the enemy's sword was on his neck.

But now he was scared from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, this matter, King Yu will supervise it, you just stay good. ”

The emperor didn't want to say anything more to him.

Li Qijing's heart is cold.

He was worried about the epidemic in Shucheng, and he thought that there was also an epidemic in Shangjing, and he didn't know what happened to Ling Chuyu?

He came to Daoheian with a lot of heart.

"Who?"

Zhuxi suddenly felt that there was someone outside the window, and rushed to the courtyard with one arrow step, and the two fought.

Ling Chuyu followed out, only to see that it was Li Yanjing who came.

"Zhuxi, stop, he is the king of loyalty. ”

Ling Chuyu shouted, and Zhuxi stopped.

Li Yanjing looked puzzled, "Who are you?"

"You don't know her, she's the little girl Nian'er found to protect me. She is also seeing you for the first time, and she doesn't recognize you, so please forgive your Highness. Ling Chuyu explained.

Li Yanjing looked at it twice, what he didn't say was how this girl's tricks were very similar to his.

His master Gu Yi's exercises have always been known for being weird, and I really haven't heard of anyone on the rivers and lakes whose exercises are similar to his own.

What's going on with this girl?

"By the way, didn't you go to Shucheng?

Ling Chuyu felt that he shouldn't be here now, how could he suddenly return to Beijing, could it be that there was a change in the epidemic?

"Hey!"

Li Yanjing showed an unprecedented decline, which Ling Chuyu had never seen before.

Ling Chuyu called Xi'er and they prepared hot tea.

Li Yijing saw that she was very warm here, and she felt a lot more comfortable, and even forgot those bad things.

"What the hell happened, why did you come back all of a sudden?"

Ling Chuyu knew the seriousness of the epidemic, and she knew even more about Li Yanjing's character, he would definitely not give up halfway, something serious must have happened.

"Do you know what kind of life the people of Shucheng live? They are now underfed and sick. Some villages are dead. ”

Li Yanjing held her head and was in pain.

Ling Chuyu didn't dare to say much, just waiting for Li Yanjing to recover from his grief.

I don't know how long it took before Li Yanjing raised his head and looked at Ling Chuyu.

"Do you know that the court sent a sum of money and grain to support Shucheng? But I didn't even have a fur to receive it. Where do you think all this stuff went?"

Li Yanjing was not sad because the emperor had wronged him, but because those people had lost their humanity and felt cold, and at such an embarrassing moment, they still wanted to make a profit.

What kind of court is this?

Ling Chuyu knew that he was uncomfortable in his heart, so he didn't say much, but silently wrote down his words in his heart.

"Chu Yu, I heard that Shangjing has already discovered the epidemic. You have to take care of yourself, as long as you're okay, I'll have peace of mind. ”

Li Yanjing saw that Ling Chuyu was healthy and fine, and he was also at ease.

The two of them sat here and did not speak, but sat quietly.

Li Yanjing fell asleep unconsciously in the sweet fragrance, he hadn't slept well in Shucheng for dozens of days.

The day before yesterday, I hurried back to Beijing, and I didn't rest on the way. This time I went to see the emperor, and before I had time to return home, I came directly to Daoping Nunnery.

How tired should he be?

Ling Chuyu looked at his tightly knit brows and knew how unstable his sleep was.

She knew that the epidemic was very serious, but it was not yet time, and she had no other choice but to watch those people die.

Ling Chuyu also prayed like the Buddha, hoping that Jianzhen could quickly develop a prescription to control the epidemic at this time. Otherwise, more people will die in the back.
