At this moment, my eyes suddenly opened up, and the previous puzzles were answered one by one.

No wonder the plague appeared so early this time, because this plague was not brought by the victims at all, but the mosquitoes had already spread before the victims entered the city; And those people in Beicheng will be infected, naturally there are traces to follow, even Huang Tianba, he left Yangzhou from the day the disaster victims entered the city and chased back the grain merchants' grain ships along the waterway, but he was still infected with the epidemic, because that day, he was also the closest person to the copper box!

And the doctors in the state capital could not diagnose my illness, but I am afraid that it is because this epidemic is different from ordinary plagues, so they will not be able to understand the symptoms.

But then the bigger doubts came.

Those mosquitoes, who are going to come to Yangzhou, and what is the purpose?

I looked at him, and he was looking at me, and it was evident that we were both thinking about it at the same time, and remembering the scene of that day, the official of the post station was also very surprised when he saw the copper box opened, as if he did not know the truth of the matter.

Suddenly, my eyes lit up, and a scene flickered.

When the copper box was broken, I seemed to see that the seal on the box was bright yellow!

The messages transmitted by the post station are all graded, the message seals accepted by officials below the fifth rank are blue, the seals of officials below the third rank are green, the seals of officials below the first rank are red, and bright yellow, which is the color that only the royal family can use!

In other words, the box was passed to Yangzhou and was for the royal family, and there is only one royal family currently in Yangzhou!

That box was passed to Pei Yuanhao!

Thinking like this, I suddenly felt a tingling in my scalp, and when I thought of Pei Yuanhao opening the box, countless mosquitoes with epidemics pounced on him, what kind of scene would it be!

Then he must be the first to die of the plague!

In other words, this epidemic is to harm him, who is it that has such courage!

At this time, a figure flashed in my mind - Empress Yin!

On the way south, when Pei Yuanhao and I talked about this matter, we all guessed that this time Empress Yin was poisoned, and the four princes attacked and led Pei Yuanhao to the south, all of which were planned by them, but I couldn't figure out why they did this before, but now when I look at it like this, it is clear.

They seem to have calculated the right time, Pei Yuanhao arrived in Yangzhou a few days ago, according to the time of the famine in previous years, refugees will pour into Yangzhou from all directions, as the third prince Pei Yuanhao will definitely not sit idly by, he must stay here to deal with these things, but if the food problem of the victims is solved, he will return to Beijing immediately, which is also very unfavorable to them, so they will bring the mosquitoes with the epidemic into Yangzhou from the post road official, causing the plague here, even if Pei Yuanhao opens the box and sees the mosquitoes, he knows their conspiracy, It will take more than a month to return to the capital from here, but I'm afraid he won't have time to go back, just-

And now, although there was an accident on the way, Pei Yuanhao was unharmed, but the spread of the epidemic in Yangzhou City still temporarily dragged him down.

But herein lies the problem.

They led Pei Yuanhao out of the capital, and repeatedly delayed his return to Beijing, what are they going to do?!
