Xiao Jiuxi quickly went out, leaving Xiao Hui silent in the big tent for a long time.

Thunder looked at the silent Xiao Hao and sighed helplessly.

King Yu didn't know how difficult it was for the prince to live without the holy grace, and the tasks assigned by His Majesty had to be completed with all his might.

In order to give the court enough iron ore over the years, the prince doesn't know how much he has paid.

However, once the iron ore is not enough, His Majesty will lower the punishment, and the punishment of the prince is a trivial matter, and the most punishable thing is to sit with those who min.

The holy decree said that the unfavorable mining is not the fault of the king of the mountain, but the lack of ability of the miners, and the mining area does not allow useless people and leakers, so the useless people are killed to prevent leaks.

As long as he Xiao Hao closes the mine today, he will definitely not be able to hand over enough iron ore this year, not to mention the miners here, and even their families will not be able to keep it.

Xiao Hui sneered and shook his head: "A naïve child who only knows one and doesn't know the other, but after being praised a few words, he really thinks that he is a wise and kind-hearted child."

Xiao Jiuxi walked out of Xiao Hao's big tent and walked all the way to the live mine, at this time, those who came to help dig in the iron-smelting shed were more or less injured, and some of the wounds were even pus and festering.

However, due to the daily friction of the excavation work, they did not pay much attention to it.

However, if these wounds are seen by the doctors, they are afraid that they will shake their heads again and again and criticize them for being unfilial.

After all, how can parents who suffer from the body be treated so harshly.

Xiao Jiuxi frowned and forcibly looked away, these are Xiao Xi's people, he doesn't feel distressed, what does he care.

Even if he worries about it, in the end, it will only make Xiao Hui suspicious, saying that he is a wolf and has ambitions to buy the hearts of the people.

Thinking of this, Xiao Jiuxi accelerated his pace and returned to the living mining area.

The main purpose of this rescue is to save lives, and the people in these live mines are the last survivors, and if he rescues them, he will be fully meritorious.

Instead of staying here in the eyes of the emperor, it is better to go home, anyway, his wife and children are waiting for him to go back at home.

In this way, Xiao Jiuxi quickly returned to the living mining area to dig with the soldiers, and he didn't bother to care about the idle things on the side.

However, the time to come still came.

About two days later, people in the crowd suddenly fell down one after another.

Those who have all dug in dead mines and touched dead people.

"Oh no, someone fainted."

"Doctor, come and see!"

"It's a plague, it's a plague! Someone's infected with corpse plague!"

Xiao Jiuxi, who was far away, heard shouting from the dead mining area.

By this time, they were nearing the end of their excavation and the last live mine was about to be excavated.

And this wail soon spread in the mining area, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Xiao Jiuxi said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, everyone, we are all prepared, as long as the chain can't be protected, the plague can't find us, hurry up and dig, let's go home after digging!"

"Yes!"

It has become a mess over there, and many people have to run back when they lose their tools, after all, once the corpse plague appears, it will often kill and injure a large number of people, and it is the best choice to stay away before it breaks out.

However, as soon as they fled, Xiao Hui's people appeared over there, and they directly drew their swords to block everyone's way.

"No one can go without the order of the King of the Mountain."

"My lord, now there's a corpse plague! The plague is contagious, so let's get out before we get it."

"yes, don't put it off any longer, there's no hope of putting it off any longer."

"My eldest brother is already buried here, I can't fold it here anymore, otherwise our family will be cut off from incense!"

Xiao Jiuxi looked at the pull over there, and couldn't help frowning.

In the end, the last thing you want to see happens, but once it happens, you can't do it easily.

At this time, the people of Long Xiaoying also knew that the situation outside was not ordinary, and their movements couldn't help but speed up a little.

This side is digging frantically, and there is a crazy confrontation there, and in the end, there are still people who are too afraid to forcibly rush the card and be killed.

Bloodshed happened after all.

Xiao Jiuxi looked at the people who were suppressed in an instant, but he still couldn't help it, and left again.

"Lord, where are you going?" Liu Zheng was a little worried that he would get involved in the internal affairs of the Mountain King.

After all, this is the family affair of the king of the mountain, and it is better for the prince not to participate, just when he wanted to chase, Yige moved first: "Don't worry, the master is calmer than him, and the camp owner can trust the master."

"......" Liu Zheng frowned, and a thousand words turned into a sigh.

On the other side, Xiao Jiuxi hurriedly walked to Xiao Hui's big tent, at this time Xiao Hui had changed his sloppy past, and it seemed that he had specially washed up last night.

He reverted to the appearance of the high-ranking prince.

Xiao Jiuxi didn't care, and went straight to the point: "You want the people or political achievements!"

Xiao Ying looked up at him coldly: "What do you have to do with it."

"Why is it none of me? Am I on the outside? If the corpse plague really happens, do you think I can be good?

If you had listened to me two days ago, there would have been nothing, but now it's still too late, so we can lock this place down while the plague doesn't spread."

Xiao Hui hooked his lips and smiled: "We are not in the same camp after all, isn't it good for you to look at me?" Why do you want to help me so much?"

Xiao Jiuxi couldn't help but sigh, plus he couldn't roll his eyes.

"How many times have I said it, I'm not interested in this throne, if you want to sit directly, what camp is not the camp, Lao Tzu's enemy is only Dong Zhao with wolf ambitions! I'm more concerned about territory being violated than infighting!"

Xiao Hui never thought that Xiao Jiuxi would answer like this, and he was also a little stunned at this time: "You...... Are you serious?"

"Or else? Think about it, if we really fight among ourselves, or even fight each other because of this, who will ultimately benefit? I just pulled out a spy wine shop in Dongzhao from Tai Chu a few days ago, this wine shop is found in every state of our Da Chu, you say, if he doesn't have wolf ambitions, what are you doing so much in our Da Chu?

Let me explain it to you again, I was in the capital before, do you know why my father summoned me alone? Are you going to open a small stove for me when you become the emperor?

Oh, that's because his father was poisoned and his life was on the verge of dying, and the murderer pointed directly at Dongzhao.

If Dong Zhao really succeeds, what do you think we will become now? According to the imperial brother's thirst for the throne and his suspicion of his siblings, I'm afraid that the fight has already begun now, right?"

Xiao Jiuxi's words were hugely informative, and Xiao Ye was stunned for a long time, his face full of disbelief.

"You...... Father's ...... He...... Is what you say true?"

"Lie to you, I'm a dog." Xiao Jiuxi couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Third Emperor Brother, be sober, our family is a camp, you don't have to worry about me, if you want to sit in that position, I will assist you, not only me, the same is true for the Fourth Emperor Brother, we have the same blood on our bodies, only we will not betray you, compared to us, what you should really guard against are those who divide us."
