"And what's going on, it seems that I've missed a lot of good things during my illness!" Just when the fifth prince teased Li Zijun, the sixth prince also walked into the side hall, and after a brief greeting to the officials, he walked quickly to the middle of the fifth prince and Li Zijun.

"Ed, when things are over here, you must tell me about your experience during this time!"

"Your Highness, there's really nothing to say!"

"Don't be modest with me, the fifth brother has never spoken, since what he said is so wonderful, it must be very interesting! I will invite you to dinner in a moment, and you will tell me everything that has happened and encountered you recently. Otherwise, don't look at my lame legs, and I will never let you go!"

The sixth prince's move made the officials present couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and in the news they heard, Edlaide was the 'culprit' who cut off the possibility of the sixth prince's promotion. And looking at the current appearance of the sixth prince, it is obviously inconsistent with the rumors, isn't it?

Inadvertently, the eyes of one or two officials had already shifted to the fifth prince Dennis.

"Your Majesty has arrived!" At this moment, with the shouts of the chamberlain, His Majesty Virgil stepped into the side hall.

"Sit down!" Li Zijun tried to find some clues on Virgil's face, but he was disappointed. For His Majesty Virgil, whose face was neither sad nor joyful, was extremely flat, and with a wave of his hand, he calmly ordered everyone to sit back in their chairs.

"Prime Minister Alec, let's get started!" His Majesty Virgil nodded to Alec at his hand, and motioned for him to brief everyone on the situation.

"Yes. Your Majesty!" said Alec as he stretched out his hand to summon one of his chamberlains, asking him to hand out a stack of papers to the officials.

"I'll give you a rough explanation of the situation!" Alec took advantage of the time when the chamberlain was handing out the papers. I explained the situation to everyone.

It turned out that Wu'an and Pingyao counties, located in the southwest of Dongyu, had a sudden outbreak of plague recently. Local officials are struggling to contain the spread of the outbreak. However, it seems that the effect is very small, and the plague not only has not been effectively controlled, but seems to have a tendency to spread widely.

When things came to this point, the local officials naturally didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, and their official letter for help was sent to Filano City last night.

Wu'an, Pingyao!

Hearing these two names, Li Zijun couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. For these two counties, Li Zijun has a deep understanding!

These two county towns are not large in size and not very populous, but their military status in Dongyu is not low! They are located on the choke point of the two supply lines of Ogden, and together with Yongkang County, they have become the three lifelines of Ogden!

The plague in these two places is equivalent to cutting off Ogden's two supply lines, and if something happens to Yongkang again, Ogden's life may not be easy!

Thinking of this, Li Zijun finally understood the intention of His Majesty Virgil to order the military attache to attend this meeting. He's worried about Ogden!

To be honest, His Majesty Virgil's fears are not unreasonable. Wu'an and Pingyao are not far away, and it is really incomprehensible that the plague is happening in these two places at the same time. There are not so many coincidences in the world, Li Zijun seems to have smelled a hint of conspiracy!

But who is the real culprit behind this incident?

Most people would guess that it was the Dark Moon God Sect and the Fengqi Empire, but Li Zijun had a different idea. The Dark Moon God Cult has stood on the Youlan Continent for many years. Although they have done many despicable and dirty things behind their backs, on the bright side, they have always regarded themselves as divine envoys who save people from fire and water.

At the same time, the two medium-sized county towns were plagued? I am afraid that they will only dare to imagine at best, and will never dare to really implement this plan! The purple Gladys appeared in front of Li Zijun's eyes!

Ruthless and unscrupulous to achieve the end are the biggest characteristics of this woman. Nine times out of ten, it's her!

Thinking of this, Li Zijun inadvertently glanced at Abraham, the sixth prince who was sitting in front of him. To Li Zijun's surprise, it was almost at the same time. Abraham also turned his head to look at him!

The two looked at each other, and a wry smile appeared on their faces. Clearly, they had a similar answer in their minds!

"This morning. Lord Mantejou has already set off on the road with the first batch of relief supplies and medicines, and the rest of the relief medicines and supplies will be assembled in the city of Nogan within fifteen days!"

"I have a suggestion!" Before Prime Minister Alec could finish speaking, the fifth prince Dennis suddenly raised his hand and stood up.

"Father, judging from what we have learned so far, the disaster situation in these two counties cannot be delayed. In my humble opinion, can we order the surrounding towns to give the two county towns the greatest support while preventing the further expansion of the disaster? In this way, we can also alleviate some difficulties and pressures for the disaster relief work in the future!"

"Returning to the prince: Your Majesty's holy decree is already on the way, I believe that in three or five days as fast as it is, and only ten days in slow terms, the towns around these two counties will be able to receive the holy decree and launch a rescue!" Alec smiled and explained the situation to Dennis further after receiving His Majesty Virgil's signal.

"It seems that the retainers are overly worried!" Denise gave Denis a slightly embarrassed expression after listening to Alec's explanation.

"Sit down!" His Majesty Virgil was noncommittal to Dennis's words, but waved his hand and ordered him to sit back in his place.

"Do the others have any other questions?" asked His Majesty Fergil, pausing slightly, and glancing up at the crowd.

"Erchen has no problem, Erchen just wants to recommend himself to be in charge of this disaster relief work!" Just when everyone shook their heads, to everyone's surprise, the sixth prince actually volunteered to stand up.

"You?" His Majesty Virgil didn't expect Abraham to recommend himself, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

"Your leg injury hasn't healed, or next time?" His Majesty Virgil felt an inexplicable guilt in his heart for the sixth prince to become what he is now, and his eyes softened, trying to persuade the sixth prince to change his mind.

"Thank you for your concern, but I'm afraid my leg will never get better, I have already decided that this time the demon gate will be reopened, give up the lottery, and directly dedicate my skills!" As soon as Abraham said this, the entire side hall seemed to shake slightly, and everyone immediately focused their eyes on him.

The sudden appearance in the spotlight did not change Abraham in the slightest, and his speech remained steady, as if he were telling someone else's story:

"After that, I will definitely not be able to share my sorrows with you for a long time. So, I want to do what I can before then. Father, will you let me start with this disaster?" said this, Abraham fell to his knees with difficulty in front of His Majesty Virgil, holding on to his crutches.

"It's just that this disaster relief is different after all, and I'm worried about your body. His Majesty Virgil was at last a little moved, and he was tempted to deny Abraham's request, but he hesitated and could not utter what had already reached his lips.

In desperation, His Majesty Virgil shifted his gaze to Prime Minister Alec's face.

Alec sighed secretly and got up and arched to the ground to His Majesty Virgil:

"The old minister is not talented, I am willing to accompany His Highness to go!"

"This is not good! You are old, and your body has just recovered, you can't risk traveling far, let alone going to the plague-stricken area this time, absolutely not!"

"Besides, I can't be without you, you can't go!" This time, His Majesty Virgil did not hesitate and directly rejected Alec's proposal.

"We're all old, let's let the juniors do something!" His Majesty Virgil seemed to be worried that Li Zijun wouldn't understand what he meant, and before and after saying this, his gaze stayed on Li Zijun's face without leaving for a moment.

Grandma, there are so many court officials here, why do you have to let me go? Am I not afraid of the plague?

At this time, Li Zijun's heart was really full of complaints, but he also knew very well that he could only complain in his heart, and on the surface, he had to put on a look that he had to go:

"I would like to accompany Your Highness to the disaster area!"

"Ed, he has just returned from a mission to the Hutchian Hungarians, and he was sent to the disaster area immediately in just one day, isn't it?" His Majesty Virgil turned to look at Prime Minister Alec and said two 'yes' in succession.

"Young people should have more experience!Reply to Your Majesty: The old minister thinks Ed is a good candidate!" At this point, Alec can only push the boat with the current.

"What do you think, Dennis?" His Majesty Virgil pondered for a moment, his gaze falling back to the face of the fifth prince.

"Erchen originally wanted to accompany the sixth brother on this journey, but since Ed has already taken the lead, then Erchen can only choose next time!" Dennis got up and replied.

"What about the rest of you? Is there any objection?"

Floods and droughts, maybe there are still people who are willing to join in the fun, the plague? Forget it! Everyone was originally thinking of avoiding disaster, but now they saw that someone was willing to take the initiative to take the risk, and they all shook their heads to His Majesty Virgil and Prime Minister Alec:

"Nope!"

"In that case, then you two should go on a trip! Remember, Ed, that Abraham must not be hurt in the slightest, or I will not spare it!"

"Weichen will do his best to protect His Highness!" Li Zijun bowed down and sincerely assured His Majesty Virgil.

"Very well, everyone else go down, Abraham and Ed, you stay, I still have some things to tell you!" His Majesty Fergil nodded to Li Zijun with satisfaction, and waved the order to 'adjourn the meeting'.

"Abraham and Ed, what do you think about the plague in Wu'an and Pingyao?" After everyone left, His Majesty Virgil went straight to the subject he was most concerned about. (To be continued.) )
