"According to observations, the new drug has a remarkable effect on the plague. A few hours after use, the patient's symptoms such as cough, bloody sputum, and coma can be significantly relieved. And it is not a psychological effect."

In Wang's residence, a servant stood solemnly in the hall, reporting what he had seen in the hospital to the clan elders gathered here, "The land around the hospital has been expropriated by the government.

Many monks whom I had never seen before appeared there and were bulldozing houses, moving stones, wood and other materials to build new isolation wards.

Based on the area and materials used, it is estimated that the new isolation area can accommodate about 1,000 to 2,000 people."

". Got it, go down."

Wang Anlian's father, Chu Haoman's father-in-law, and Wang Bojian, who originally competed with Wang Bofan for the position of patriarch, took a deep breath and asked the servants to stand down.

When only the clan elders were left in the hall, he looked around at the people with heavy expressions and said calmly: "The isolation area in Taiyuan Mansion alone can accommodate five thousand people.

If you include the quarantine camps outside the city and multiply by the average quarantine period of seven to 12 days per person, all cases will be eliminated within two months."

The elders of the Wang family in Taiyuan were silent. When they received the news that Li Ang had walked out of the laboratory, they felt a little lucky.

I feel that the water injection that Li Ang took out may be just a fake medicine that has no actual effect.

It was Li Ang who used it to deceive the people of Taiyuan Prefecture in order to resolve the imminent crisis.

But when pieces of information entered the palace, these lucks disappeared.

The plague is over.

Even if there were sporadic pathological diseases that appeared later, when hospitals in other parts of Yu State began to produce special medicines with all their strength, the plague would no longer cause any trouble.

Wang Bojian continued: "Furthermore, according to reports from scouts, the Taiyuan Railway Station has also received orders that traffic will be restored no later than tomorrow night, and personnel and materials are temporarily not allowed to enter or exit.

In other words, the Chang'an court also changed its original idea of ​​abandoning Taiyuan Prefecture after the emergence of specific medicines, and prepared to continue investing manpower and material resources in Taiyuan Prefecture to quell this plague as soon as possible."

The sound of needle dropping could still be heard in the hall. The clan elders were either expressionless, or had their eyes closed, or were looking at the ground in a daze.

"No one wants to say anything?"

The pent-up anger in Wang Bojian's heart was instantly ignited. He lowered his voice and shouted: "The Zhenfu Division has taken away the local sages who participated in the siege of the prefecture during the day, sent people to ransack their homes, and searched and suppressed all the letters in their homes. Documents.

It is to define this matter as a major case.

In Taiyuan City, which reputable person has not had contact with the Wang family?

The Zhenfu Division can rely on these exchanges of letters and arrest anyone they want to arrest in the entire Yu Kingdom on the grounds of "collaborating with evil cultivators."

Including the Taiyuan Wang family, everyone from top to bottom.

The liquidation of the imperial court is coming soon.

He secretly printed and distributed leaflets, spread rumors, and added fuel to the flames to spread the epidemic ghost talisman, and even today he encouraged the people to besiege the prefect's mansion.

Any one crime is enough to bring down the Wang family."

"It won't overturn."

Wang Bofan suddenly raised his head and said: "We still have a chance to make a comeback.

Bian Yubo, the trial cardinal of Mount Taihao, is on our side, isn't he? He also supports and tacitly allows us to condone the plague in Taiyuan Mansion.

All the countries in the world have issued denunciations against Yu State. Maybe in a few months, war will break out, and there will be no Yu State in the future!"

"You said it yourself, even if a war breaks out, the Yu Kingdom will not be destroyed instantly.

Bian Yubo is far away in Taihao Mountain, how can he possibly save us?"

Wang Bojian shouted in a deep voice: "What's more, one of the prerequisites for the outbreak of war is the current plague and civil strife in the Yu Kingdom.

Now that the plague is about to subside, the best fighter planes in each country are gone, and the war has to be postponed again.

Such a long time is enough for the Yu State to realize that it must be at peace within the country to resist foreign aggression."

"Then there's Zhao Ming!"

Wang Bofan said loudly: "The Plague Ghost Talisman was concocted by Zhao Ming, so they will also have something to do."

"You expect a group of demon cultivators to come and save our Wang family?"

Wang Bojian laughed angrily, "If they had the ability to directly overthrow the Yu State, wouldn't they still have to hide their heads and show their tails, avoiding Lian Xuanxiao like mice?

Or maybe you want us Wangs to flee collectively?"

It is said that a monk who can escape cannot escape from the temple. As a local clan with a farming and studying heritage, the Wang family in Taiyuan cannot leave their hometown and become fugitive suspects collectively.

Wang Bojian looked at the pale clan brother in front of him and wanted to roll up his sleeves, step forward and knock him to the ground.

When Wang Bofan encouraged people to support or acquiesce in his plan to trigger leaflets, Wang Bojian had concerns and tried to dissuade him.

However, Wang Bofan directly expelled him from the circle of elders and did not let him know the follow-up plan.

So much so that he only found out not long ago that Wang was involved in the spread of the Plague Ghost Talisman.

The more silent the clan elders were, the more Wang Bojian became angry.

He looked around at everyone in the hall and said in a deep voice: "Neither Taihao Mountain nor Zhaoming can save us this time.

Even if the Wang family makes mistakes, it is up to the Wang family to fight against them."

To resist, a culprit is needed to shoulder the heaviest death penalty for the Wang family.

Hearing these words, Wang Bofan's face turned pale. He had long known that he had lost the bet and had made the wrong bet.

But when someone told him the result directly in front of him, the truth still stung.

"We still have a way!"

Wang Bofan, who looked flustered, interrupted, "The Wang family is so rich that it rivals the country.

We can trade and discuss with the court, and if that doesn't work, we can threaten the Chang'an court with the alienated objects in the treasure house.

The Wang family has a prosperous branch, and whether it is the Chang'an imperial court, the academy, or the Zhenfu Division, there are people who are related to each other and can help speak.

And Li Ang, isn’t he not married yet?

Scholars all over the world are proud to marry women of the fifth surname. We can have a good discussion with him.

And the King of Yue, he wants to be the emperor, right?

As long as he lets us go this time, the Wang family and other families will fully support his fight against the prince, and he will not let go of such a good opportunity."

Wang Bofan racked his brains and thought of a way out for himself. He stood up from his chair, knelt down on one knee in front of Wang Bojian, and forced a smile on his face, "Bojian, we have known each other since we were children. This position of patriarch is

, I also feel from the bottom of my heart that you should be in charge.”

Seeing his former competitor behaving like this, Wang Bojian felt no joy at all in his heart.

Without even looking at Wang Bofan, he said directly to the other clan elders: "I have asked people in the mansion to burn all kinds of letters. The printing equipment used to print leaflets has also been smashed, dismantled and burned."

"well done."

The white-haired clan elder nodded and said: "If those who spread rumors in the city are family members, let them hide at home for a few days.

If they are servants at home, ask them to write a confession.

In addition, give their families a pension to stop them from talking nonsense.

Also, prepare a list of various treasures in the treasure house.

Bo Jian,”

"I am here."

"Tie Bo Fan up."

The white-haired old man stood up from the chair with a cane and said tiredly, "We will go to Mr. Li Xiaolang tonight and ask for forgiveness."

————

The cold wind blew and the lanterns fluttered.

The carriage of the Wang family in Taiyuan drove through the street and stopped in front of the hospital.

As the servant said, the outside of the hospital is like a construction site, with dust everywhere.

The monks wearing the costumes of the Academy, the Zhenfusi and the major academies are using magic and telekinesis to build a new isolation area.

Some ordinary workers with no cultivation skills used carts and other tools to deliver carts of stone bricks and wood.

The carriage door opens,

Wang Bojian, Wang Bofan and the three old men from the white-haired tribe got off the carriage and walked towards the noisy and lively construction site in silence.

There were many Taiyuan locals at the construction site. When they saw Wang Bojian and the other three, they recognized the Wang jade pendants worn around their waists. They all looked surprised and whispered to their companions.

But no one stepped forward to stop him.

The three of them arrived inside the hospital unimpeded and met the girl at the front desk of the hospital.

"Is Mr. Li Xiaolang here?"

Wang Bojian took a step forward and said in a deep voice: "Please tell me, the Wang family in Taiyuan, Wang Bojian would like to see you."

The girl on duty at the ward happened to be a native of Taiyuan Prefecture. When she heard the words "Taiyuan Wang", her eyes widened in shock at first, and then she realized belatedly, "Well, I need a signature to confirm with Mr. Li Xiaolang first."

.”

"No need to report, this way."

A low voice sounded, and Yan Yundang, still wearing armor, walked out of the duty room, glanced at the three of them, and said calmly: "Follow me."

At this moment, there are still many medical staff on duty in the ward.

Yan Yundang in armor, Wang Bojian with an expressionless face, the white-haired clan elder who kept coughing, and Wang Bofan with a pale face.

The strange combination of these four people attracted all kinds of strange looks in the corridor.

The four of them went straight to the office in the corner of the ward. Yan Yundang knocked on the wooden door and opened the door only after Li Ang's voice of "please come in" came from inside.

In the room, Li Ang was still reviewing documents. When he saw Wang Bojian and three others walking in, he put down his pen and said with a smile: "Three of you, we finally meet."

This was the first time he met the real master of the Wang family in person.

He had seen the portraits of Wang family members given to him by the Zhenfu Division, and recognized Wang Bofan, the white-haired clan elder, and Wang Bojian—Wang Bojian's son-in-law Chu Haoman, whom he rescued during the Qishui Village incident.

At that time, he also received a fine gold reward from the Wang family to help Mosi complete the stage of evolution.

I have to sigh with emotion at the wonder of fate.

"Yes, we finally meet."

Wang Bojian sighed, took out a piece of paper from his arms, stepped forward, and placed his hands on Li Ang's table.

"What's this?"

Li Ang raised his eyebrows, and there were more than sixty people's names written on the paper, most of them surnamed Wang.

"This is the name of the member of the royal family who fueled the flames of the plague in Taiyuan City and violated the laws of Yu."

Wang Bojian said respectfully: "Headed by Wang Bofan, six direct family members, twenty-seven family members, and twenty-eight servants all played a disgraceful role in the plague.

Except for the culprit Wang Bofan, all the others have now gone to the Zhenfu Division of Taiyuan Prefecture to surrender and plead guilty."

"Is it?"

Li Ang smiled slightly and glanced at Wang Bofan, "Since you have pleaded guilty, why do you come to me again?"

"Ahem,"

The white-haired elder coughed and said respectfully: "Li Xiaolangjun, you are the observer of Hedong Road, and you are responsible for the lives of millions of people.

Some unscrupulous descendants of my Wang family, for their own selfish desires, violated the laws of Yu and hindered your epidemic prevention strategy, Mr. Li Xiaolang.

Both emotionally and rationally, I should apologize to you before pleading guilty and surrendering."

After saying that, he stretched out his crutch and knocked it on Wang Bofan's knee. The latter knelt forward and knocked on the ground in front of Li Ang's desk.

Li Ang glanced at the ashen-faced Wang Bofan, turned to look at the white-haired clan elder, and said with a smile: "As expected of a thousand-year-old family, they can easily describe the siege of the prefect's mansion as violating the law of Yu.

A decision that the family collectively agreed upon can be described as a decision made by a small group of unscrupulous descendants based on their own selfish desires.

I would like to know,"

He pointed at Wang Bofan who was kneeling on the ground, "What is the so-called selfish desire?"

"Wang Bofan's eldest son, Wang Jie, contracted the plague before the city was closed. Due to the city's closure, herbal medicine based on the unique prescription of Lihuagu, the former Sui sect, could not be purchased. In order to treat his son, Wang Bofan hindered the epidemic prevention strategy."

Wang Bojian answered, "Wang Jie died of illness three days ago. Wang Bofan felt resentful towards Taiyuan Mansion because of this. Out of resentment, he concocted the incident of besieging the Prefecture's Mansion."

While still in the palace, Wang Bojian had already discussed in detail all possible scenarios with the white-haired clan elder.

There is a reason why they came to Li Ang instead of Li Hui, the Yue King who had a higher title in Taiyuan Prefecture.

First of all, although Li Hui is a prince, in terms of official position, Li Ang, who is still the observer of Hedong Road, holds the dominant position.

Secondly, based on the intelligence sent back, it was Li Ang, not Li Hui, who ordered the Zhenfu Division to conduct a thorough investigation of the gentry who besieged the Prefect's Mansion.

This is understandable, after all, the source of the siege was "a drop of Li Xiaolangjun's blood can cure diseases."

Li Ang is understandably resentful about this.

Finally, in the opinion of Taiyuan Wang, Li Ang, as a doctor, will act more kindly.
