Chapter 288: Eradicating the Scourge
The token was placed in front of Tang Feng and said, "You take the token and go to the prefect, just say that I am waiting for him in the small courtyard outside, and let him come secretly and not bring others."
She didn't want to reveal her identity just yet.
Before coming, she also inquired, the prefect here is called Lin Zhi!
It's a righteous prefect, which is why I want to come here.
With the prefect's cooperation, it will be much easier for them to act next.
"Yes!"
Tang Feng came to the prefect's house, and at this moment, Lin Zhi was in a hurry because of the plague in the city.
The people below just said that the nineteenth wave of men and horses he sent out was blocked by bandits again, and this time, perhaps because he knew who they were, he directly released them back, but they were not allowed to leave here.
The situation in Danzhou is getting more and more serious.
It's the closest to Dijing, but he can't deliver news to Dijing.
He even thought about it, or he should leave himself.
After the man left, Tang Feng appeared in the study.
Lin Zhi thought that the man hadn't left yet, so he waved his hand directly.
"I said you all go down, and I'll think of a way."
Tang Feng stood behind him and said in a solemn tone, "The queen has a will, and Lin Zhi, the prefect of Danzhou, will take the order!"
Lin Zhi turned around suddenly, and when he saw Tang Feng, he just wanted to point at the other party when he saw him take out a token.
"Niangniang has a will, and the prefect of Danzhou will receive the order!"
Tang Feng repeated it again.
Lin Zhi's eyes widened, and he knelt down directly.
"Minister, Lin Zhi, the prefect of Danzhou, has seen Niangniang!"
Tang Feng squinted his eyes and said, "Pass on the message of the queen's mother, tonight's third watch, the mother will be waiting for you in the bamboo garden not far from here, I hope you will be ready to explain the situation of the epidemic clearly."
After Tang Feng took the token back, he left Lin Zhi's mansion directly.
Lin Zhi reacted at this time, it turned out that it was the one who came.
As long as she comes, his Danzhou will be saved.
Lin Zhi made preparations, and when it was the middle of the night, Lin Zhi left the house through the back door and went to the bamboo garden.
When she entered, Shen Xinyue sat on the main seat and waited for her.
I was drinking tea.
"Lin Zhi, the prefect of Danzhou, to see Niangniang, I don't know if Niangniang is here, what instructions do you have?"
Shen Xinyue put down the teacup in her hand and squinted when she looked at Lin Zhi.
"Lin Zhi, Danzhou is the closest to the imperial capital, why don't you let people pass the news to the imperial capital, if it weren't for the fact that the main palace had been inspecting the city of Danzhou for a few days, I wouldn't have known that the situation had reached this point."
Lin Zhi wiped a cold sweat and said, "If you go back to Niangniang, it's not that the minister is unwilling, but the minister can't send someone to the imperial capital to deliver the news at all, except for the serious twists and turns of the epidemic, the news can't be transmitted to His Majesty the imperial capital at all."
Shen Xinyue squinted, feeling that the matter might be more serious than she thought.
"What the hell is going on?"
Shen Xinyue always felt that things were a little unusual, or that she was out of control.
Lin Zhi lowered his head and said, "Previously, when the epidemic was just discovered, the minister had already written to the emperor and asked His Majesty to send people to support Danzhou, but the minister found that the minister's twists and turns would not be intercepted at all if he could not reach the imperial capital."
"Not only that, but when there were signs of reselling high-priced medicinal materials in the city, the minister also tried to buy this batch of medicinal materials, but the price offered by the other party was too high, and he even gave the minister a tael of medicinal materials to sell for five hundred taels."
At this price, how much do you buy?
"Next, the minister also tried to go to the next state and county where there was no plague to buy, but those people were either robbed by bandits on the way, or before they left the city of Danzhou, they were swarmed by the people, saying that the prefect did not act, and the minister had no way at all."
"Even, the minister has already planned, and he will do it immediately
Go to the imperial capital, tell Your Majesty the news, and you will come."
When Shen Xinyue looked at him, she said, "It's good that you didn't go, if you go, the trouble will be really big."
Lin Zhi looked at Shen Xinyue inexplicably, not understanding what this meant.
"Governor Lin, you are so anxious about the spread of the epidemic that your eyes are confused, but think about it, you are the prefect here, if you leave, what will happen to the people in the entire Danzhou City? The prefects are gone, maybe at first, no one will take care of it, but what about after a long time?"
"Once the city becomes an empty city, and there is no backbone, who will the prefect's soldiers and horses listen to? Without your orders, they don't dare to act on their own, so if those people use the people to do something, can you come back?"
Lin Zhi's eyes widened.
"The ...... of the epidemic"
Shen Xinyue sat on the main seat and said, "The epidemic matter, this palace has a way, since this palace can appear here, naturally it already knows how to crack it, and next, I hope that Lin Zhifu and this palace will play a show."
When Shen Xinyue looked at Lin Zhi, a smile was hooked on the corner of her mouth.
Lin Zhi looked at her inexplicably, a little unsure of what he meant.
"Governor Lin, this palace asks you, if it is attacked from the inside out, the people have become meat shields, are you willing to give up the people and directly recapture this city?"
Lin Zhi frowned and said, "How is it possible, if so, how is it different from a tyrant?"
Yes, what's the difference with a tyrant?
"yes, what do you have to do with tyrants? But if you leave, they have a plan, what they want is to force you away, and then use the people to make them a meat shield, and if you attack, then the people will bear the brunt of the sword for them."
When the time comes, Lin Zhi will become a sinner through the ages.
"Hongu thinks that it should be because you didn't want to cooperate with you when they asked you to cooperate, so that's why it's like this."
The reason why the epidemic in Danzhou is more serious is because of Lin Zhi's non-cooperation.
Once Lin Zhi cooperates, after attacking Danzhou, it will be the last line of defense in the imperial capital.
After Danzhou was taken and controlled, it was also very easy to go directly to Dijing next.
As long as Danzhou is controlled, there will be no reinforcements coming.
"The minister knew, and the minister almost made a mistake."
Shen Xinyue sneered and said, "You didn't miss it, you directly suppressed them, the so-called bandits were just arranged by their people."
When she finished speaking, she also felt a little angry, those people really don't care about the lives of the people.
"So what are we going to do?"
Shen Xinyue knew that Lin Zhi's house had a lot of eyeliner.
"This palace asked you to come out of the third watch because during the third watch, your mansion happened to be the time when those people changed shifts, and no one was staring at your mansion during this time, but after this hour, they started a new round of surveillance."
Lin Zhi's eyes widened and he looked at Shen Xinyue in disbelief.
I don't understand why this is happening.
"These days, you should start to turn off the lights and rest during the third watch, right?"
Lin Zhi nodded, it was true, but it was said that the lights were out, but he was not necessarily asleep, but he was used to thinking in the dark.
So when it was time for the third watch, the lights went out.
"Then when you come out, can you turn off the lights?"
Lin Zhi nodded again and said, "It's out, the minister has the habit of turning off the lights when he leaves."
In this way, it makes sense.
When Bai Meimei looked at Shen Xinyue, he was a little surprised.
"Sister, have you been staring at it all this time?"
Shen Xinyue nodded and said, "Actually, it's not like staring, it's just a matter of understanding all the habits, especially Tang Feng has been watching the movements of Governor Lin's mansion for the past few days, knowing when they will be replaced."
It's just that what Shen Xinyue didn't expect was that when he was replaced during the day, he actually let the two of them together
, staring, one person is changing shifts, and the other is still staring.
After that, there was another person, and after a while, another person was changed, so that you could keep an eye on everything in the prefect's mansion at any time.
Know what Lin Zhi is doing.
Only at this time of the third watch is when they are lax and no one is there.
After staring at them for three nights, I found that they had been absent all along.
So Shen Xinyue asked Tang Feng to pass the word and asked Lin Zhisan to come over.
At this time, Lin Zhi left, and they would not find out.
"When you go back in a while, Tang Feng will take you back. His light skills are the best, and he can come and go without a trace."
However, only one person can be brought with you.
Shen Xinyue said helplessly.
"This matter, this palace also knows that you are implicated, but Lin Zhi, this time you did a good job and did not disappoint this palace and His Majesty."
Lin Zhi shook his head, not very happy.
"Thank you for the compliment, but is there a way for the lady to solve this?"
Shen Xinyue propped her chin and said, "Yes, but what needs to be done, Lord Lin will know tomorrow, it's late tonight, go back, and the rest of the time, this palace won't keep you."
When looking at Lin Zhi, Shen Xinyue laughed.
When looking at Shen Xinyue, Lin Zhi found that the woman in front of him had a beautiful face as rumored, but her medical skills were very exquisite.
"Go back, Tang Feng will take Master Lin back."
Tang Feng nodded.
When Lin Zhi was taken away, Shen Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister, do you have something to do?"
Shen Xinyue shook her head, in fact, she didn't have anything to do.
"No, I just think this matter gives Lin Zhi a hope."
When she looked at Lin Zhi, Shen Xinyue knew that this man had reached a critical point and could no longer bear the blow.
So she pretended to be calm, saying that there was already a way to be positive, but in fact, she knew that she couldn't think of a way for the time being.
can only let people quickly tell Huo Weilou about the things here, and at the same time, he also began to develop medicinal materials.
There are not many medicinal materials brought by them in this line, and the medicinal materials in the back are still on the way.
It took a day, but when they entered those quarantine areas, they were easily relaxed.
found a way, and directly after the signs that one person died, and the others ran away.
Those people just had a big fish running away.
The rest, gone.
Shen Xinyue sat in her position and pinched her eyebrows.
When Shen Wangchi came in, he was holding a letter in his hand.
"Yue'er, it's a letter from Your Majesty."
Well?
Huo Wei Lou's letter?
Shen Xinyue was a little strange, why did this Huo Weilou write a letter to himself at this time?
"I'll see."
Shen Xinyue took the letter in Shen Wangchi's hand, and when she opened it, Shen Xinyue was a little surprised.
said that he had guessed what she had done, and General Yun had already passed towards Danzhou, and if necessary, let General Yun take action.
"How do I feel, Old General Yun has been very busy since my majesty succeeded to the throne? Don't you have time to get back to Yunzhou, do you?"
Won't that make a fuss?
Tang Feng smiled and said, "Over there in Yunzhou, there is Master Mo staring?"
Who?
Lady Mo?
"But, isn't he Dali Siqing?"
Tang Feng smiled but did not say anything.
Shen Xinyue frowned, Huo Weilou had something to hide from himself.
"That's also embarrassing the old general, I'm old, and I have to work hard."
