166 Peace(1/2)
Cheng Muqing sighed in his heart and continued to ask, "How is the plague under the mountain controlled?"
"It's all... burned to death." The man said.
"How did you know? Haven't you been here all the time?"
The man shook his head, "I was the first group of people to go down the mountain. After going down the mountain, a flood occurred. My brothers and I escaped that disaster, but not long after, a plague broke out. As long as we were infected, Si Wang would burn the man to death. We had to escape to the mountain... On the way up the mountain, my son was caught by Si Wang. I... I was negligent at that time... I didn't see..."
"Leave your son behind and go up the mountain alone." Cheng Muqing said bluntly.
The man's body shook and his lips stammered.
"Ha~" Cheng Muqing smiled.
The laughter was filled with sarcasm, and the man couldn't help but lower his head deeper.
As expected, all this was like the king's doing. Cheng Muqing narrowed his eyes slightly and slowly clenched his hands that were hanging beside him.
"Go back and rest." Cheng Muqing waved his hand, "I'll go find Dr. He."
The true face of the king has already burst into sight of these people. It will be fun when the plague is over.
As she walked, she admired the expressions of the people around her.
Their expressions were very different, but they were all more or less angry.
For several days, the people's complaints about Xiaohua became less and less. However, the words about Lin Wei have increased dramatically. Compared with the previous respect and admiration, there is only curse now.
Cheng Muqing had no time to gloat because the plague was severe these days, sometimes so severe that fifty or sixty people could die a day.
For this reason, Cheng Muqing was exhausted both physically and mentally.

The weather is clear on this day.
Cheng Muqing went straight to He Qianyuan's residence.
The smell of Chinese medicine in the tent made her headache.
She rubbed her temples and walked in.
"Empress Qi is in peace." The women stood up and saluted her.
"Thank you for your hard work, there is no need to be too polite." Cheng Muqing raised his hand and pressed.
"Here you come." He Qianyuan was holding a piece of paper in his hand, with dense words on it.
In fact, since Lin Heng came back last time and told the dead rat, He Qianyuan has confirmed that it was plague.
She was still young and only knew about the plague, but never met her. So she had been a little too long in dispensing the pharmacy.
Cheng Muqing dropped that man not to know how it was to itch a plague. Instead, he wanted him to tell the origin of the dead rats and let the people know who was harming them. Simply put, it was to expose the true face of the king.
"The prescription has been prepared, but the medicine is not enough now." He Qianyuan said, "Although you have gotten a lot of medicine from His Highness Si Wang, there are very few that can be used on the plague."
Cheng Muqing remembered what the man once said that there was a plague at the foot of the mountain.
I think the medicine has been used.
She sighed.
"However, His Highness of the King of Qi picked a lot of them the last time he went up the mountain."
"Then I will take people up the mountain to pick them up," said Cheng Muqing.
"Princess, do you know herbal medicine?" He Qianyuan asked.
"Well..." Cheng Muqing raised his hand and scratched his head.
Seeing her guilty look, He Qianyuan said, "Let the prince take people there."
I have to say that Lin Heng’s memory is indeed the best.
"But it's inconvenient for Ah Heng now."
"According to my observation over the past few days, His Highness King Qi should not be infected." He Qianyuan held his chin, "And I have always given medicine to His Highness these days, and His Highness should be fine."
"Really!" Cheng Muqing looked surprised. She was actually ready in her heart. Unexpectedly, Lin Heng was not infected with the plague.
"Natural." He Qianyuan nodded.
It has been seven days since the King of Qi has not had any high fever and discomfort, and there is no problem with the pulse and tongue coating. She can naturally determine that King of Qi is fine.
Immediately, Cheng Muqing swept away his sad face, said goodbye to He Qianyuan, and went to find Lin Heng.
The gentle wind passes through the forest, the birds fly, chirping and chirping.
As soon as she ran out of the camp, she saw Lin Heng standing not far towards her.
She laughed, and her pace gradually slowed down a lot.
"I'm fine." Lin Heng shouted to her.
"I know!" There was a joy that could not be hidden in her words.
"You seem to have lost weight again." Cheng Muqing grabbed his arm with a worried look on his face.
"I miss you." Lin Heng whispered.
"Oh~" Cheng Muqing laughed, and she raised her hand slightly.
The guard behind him tactfully evacuated backwards.
"Come with me." Cheng Muqing raised his hand and grabbed his collar and pulled him toward him.
Lin Heng walked in the direction she pulled, his eyes filled with autumn waves.
Cheng Muqing took him back to their tent.
In the tent, she was folding clothes tonight. When she saw the two of them coming back, she was surprised that Lin Heng had returned, and then immediately realized that it was really bad for her to be here. She lowered her head, bowed to them and left.
There were only two people left in the empty tent.
Cheng Muqing pulled him back to the room.
"Qingqing." Lin Heng hugged her waist.
"Huh?" Cheng Muqing grabbed his collar, stretched his little hand, pressed his chest and pressed him on the bed.
"Ha~" Lin Heng smiled, "So anxious?"
"Well, I thought about it for several days." Cheng Muqing nodded, "Eat vegetarian food every day."
"So too." Lin Heng hooked her belt and untied it in a familiar way.
Cheng Muqing pulled his hand back, and there was an extra handkerchief on his hand. The handkerchief spread out, and there was a note inside.
"Huh?" Cheng Muqing opened the note, looking at ten lines, "You still keep this note?"
"Of course, this is what you gave it to me, how could I throw it away?" Lin Heng raised his hand, held her hand, and took the note away.
"It's just a note..." Although she said that, Cheng Muqing was happy in her heart. The corners of her lips were bent and her face was full of smiles.
"It's in my place, and it's very heavy." Lin Heng folded the strips again.
"Give it." Cheng Muqing took out a purse and said, "Prepare it here."
"Okay." Lin Heng took it.
The purse is pure pink, with no pattern on it, but the stitches are fine and well-made.
"Is this what you did?" Lin Heng's words were a little surprised.
"Yeah." Cheng Muqing nodded, "How can I say that, I am also a legitimate girl from the Marquis of Wu'an. How could I not be a female hero?"
Lin Heng quietly stroked his purse, his eyes feeling gentle.
"Thanks."
"Why are you polite~" Cheng Muqing gave a bear hug directly.
"That... I haven't taken a shower for several days." Lin Heng was covered in sweat and felt a little uncomfortable, afraid of smudgeing her. But when he pressed her shoulder, he realized that she was already asleep.
After a closer look, her face turned a little sallow and her lips were covered with white skin.
He hugged her in his arms with pain and touched her head.
Cheng Muqing, who was sleeping, was like a kitten, rubbing his chest with affectionate clothes.
After a while, Lin Heng carefully turned over and settled Cheng Muqing.
"Hmm?" Cheng Muqing narrowed his eyes slightly, "What are you doing?"
"Bath." Lin Heng leaned over and kissed her eyelids.
"No." Cheng Muqing pulled him down lightly, then put his arm on his face and pressed his face against his chest.
"Okay." Lin Heng was a little helpless and hugged her and did not dare to move.
Cheng Muqing has been very tired recently. Because of the people's illness and the responsibilities to her and Xiaohua, her mind is a little confused.
After sleeping until the early morning of the next day, Cheng Muqing woke up and found that he looked loose and had been replaced.
She pressed her sore head and sat up slowly.
