Chapter 708: Harming People (Five Watches)
Chapter 708
The emperor and the empress dowager thought so, and those courtiers even more so.
They didn't care that the curfew was approaching, so they hurriedly got together in twos and threes to talk about it.
"Ling Shoufu can't handle it, I'm afraid that this time...... It's over! β
"Tomorrow morning, let's let the emperor summon himself as soon as possible, in this way, maybe the heavens will forgive and let this disaster pass."
"Alas......"
***
"Isn't Ling Heng very capable?! What is he running from! β
"He escaped, he escaped, will the emperor let him continue to stay in the position of the first assistant of the cabinet? Isn't the position of the first assistant vacant? β
"What he can't handle, even if any of you really become the first assistant, you can definitely handle things well?"
The crowd was silent.
***
Ling Heng, who was rumored to have fled, did not flee, but came to Xialin Village.
It's been a long time since I've been to Xialin Village.
The black households in Xialin Village have already paid the fines and have household registration, and as for the black things done in Xialin Village, those who should be punished and confessed have also confessed.
Although Xia Lin Village no longer serves Yunxi and the two at this time, he has great feelings for the two.
Xialin Village, although Xialin Village, is actually as big as a town.
"Ah, it's Princess Yun here!"
The people of Xia Lin Village found out that Yunxi was coming, and they were extremely excited to surround them.
Yunxi said: "What about Xiagou?" Where's the sick cow he said earlier?! β
Yunxi's face was unstoppably anxious.
If it was really chickenpox, she would let Ling Heng and them be infected with chickenpox in advance! I don't believe it!
If not......
Yunxi's heart sank.
"Ah, Steward Xia is in the city, and now the gate of the capital is bolted, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back, I know where the sick cow is, I'll take you there."
Old Village Chief Xia had an irrepressible smile on his face.
Xia Gou is now the head of the emperor's private property, and he, who is a father, has a lot of face, and all of this is brought by Yunxi, and the old village chief Xia is convinced by Yunxi!
I'm afraid that if Yunxi asks him to break a leg at this time, he will do the same.
Inside the Cowshed β
Yunxi wore a homemade mask on his face, and approached the sick cow by the light of the torch to see the situation on the sick cow.
"It's cowpox, yes, it's cowpox!"
Yunxi looked at Ling Heng excitedly, choked up, tears were about to come out.
Ling Heng frowned and reached out to hold Yunxi's hand.
"Ah Heng, do you believe me?"
Yunxi looked at Ling Heng with tears in his eyes.
Ling Heng nodded.
Then Ling Heng, Yunxi, Ling Ruansoft, and Ling Le, all four of them made a small wound and scattered the cowpox powder made on the spot on the wound.
"Mother, what is this for?" Ling Soft children have a lot of strength, but they are actually very afraid of pain.
"Hehe," Yunxi said, "Next, our family will have a fever, so let's live in Uncle Li's house." β
Ling Heng was puzzled.
But that night, it was really hot.
***
The next dayβ
Before dawn, the news of Ling Heng's illness was spread into the palace.
In the Imperial Studyββ
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Ling Shoufu felt that he was in a physical condition yesterday, so he hurriedly lived in the suburbs of Shangjing City, for fear of affecting you."
The great eunuch carefully considered word by word.
The Emperor slumped back into the dragon chair again.
The great eunuch has already called people to start disinfecting the palace, and also disinfecting and cleaning the halls.
"Send a doctor to take a look," the emperor hung his head weakly, and he was supported by his hands on the ground, so he barely raised his head, only to feel that his heart was about to run out for a moment.
When the officials who attended the Great Dynasty Meeting yesterday heard that Ling Heng was hiding outside the suburbs of Shangjing City to recuperate, and that he might be infected with the same disease as the plague, they began to find a doctor or a doctor to check the situation for themselves, and they were also deeply afraid of being infected.
"This Ling Heng is not shallow in harming people!"
