"How about it, it doesn't hurt. This is a special drug I developed to prevent healthy people from being infected."
The princess was indeed very powerful, not only her medical skills were uncanny, but also her courage impressed Leng Feng. Leng Feng was willing to follow the princess until the day when all the people in the shantytown recovered.
This girl really has the same temperament as her Wang Yiyao, and is quite aggressive, unlike women of this era who are submissive.
"Okay, you are such a good girl, we will take care of each other from now on."
After the two of them got everything done, they went to the outhouse, and Wang Yiyao introduced Leng Feng to everyone.
"Everyone, this is Miss Lengfeng. She is indeed someone sent by the prince. She has been fighting with us since then, and our team has become stronger again."
Wang Yiyao's room only had one bed, and the two young brothers helped Leng Feng build a temporary small bed in Wang Yiyao's small hut overnight.
Wang Yiyao took out her usual clothes and let the cold wind wear them, so that she would not look so conspicuous, just like an ordinary girl.
Although she was still feeling unwell, Wang Yiyao went with them to check on the epidemic patients the next day.
In the palace, since the regent used strong methods to force Wang Yiyao to go to the shantytown, they were completely relieved. There were all-night banquets and music playing in the palace.
"To report to the regent, the envoys from the frontier fortress brought a few dancers here a few days ago. They said that this Hu Xuan dance is very good."
"Okay, okay, let's go to Shenghua Palace to hold a banquet in the evening to entertain them, and then tell the dancers to get ready and dance tonight. If you dance really well, I will give you a lot of rewards."
The envoys from the border fortress had a purpose for coming at this time. The epidemic is spreading in the capital and the floods in the south of the Yangtze River have not yet been completely resolved. Now Dahui's main force is focused on these things and has no interest in border affairs.
"Asai, go and investigate around the capital to see what the epidemic situation is like. We are so grateful for your trust this time. We must find out the truth. Remember to change into the clothes here. I will go to the palace in the evening.
Go to the banquet and report back to me when I get back."
The man named Asai returned to his room, put on his Dazheng clothes, and quietly slipped out of the back door of the post house. As soon as he came to the street, he saw several beggars. He gave the beggars a lot of money, and
He took him to a hidden corner.
"Hey, how is the epidemic in the capital recently?"
"The situation is very bad. The doctor in the shantytown now is Princess Donglin. She is a woman. What kind of diseases can you say she can cure? She can't even give birth to a child. And I heard that since the princess came in, Princess Donglin has been very...
I am depressed and always go to Juyinglou to drink and spend my days."
Asai was very satisfied after receiving this news. It seemed that Prince Donglin, who had shocked the border, was defeated in the hands of the woman after all. Now he could go back to the inn and cross paths safely.
In the palace at night, the sounds of various orchestras, strings and bamboos could be heard endlessly, and the graceful dancing postures dazzled the regent. The queen mother glanced at him from time to time, very angry.
"Nantian, drink less."
"Hey, the Queen Mother is very happy today, so she allowed me to drink a few more drinks."
Although the emperor was also present, he was very angry when he saw them like this. He didn't dare to offend the regent, and the queen mother was the legitimate mother. They couldn't offend them, so he simply winked at the eunuch beside him.
"Your Majesty, you are not feeling well. Please go back to your palace to rest. You can do as you please."
After saying that, he helped the emperor back to his palace.
"Prince Regent, I would like to propose a toast to you. Are you satisfied with these dancers?"
"Satisfied, satisfied, let them all stay and allow me and the Queen Mother to enjoy your frontier dance at any time."
"Yes, I have brought a lot of specialties from our frontier this time. Come on, please bring them over."
I saw all kinds of fruits from the frontier, as well as dried fruits and some dried meats, all carried in boxes to the main hall of Shenghua Palace.
The Prince Regent was very drunk at this time. Looking at these things, he was very happy and couldn't help but eat them.
"Okay, it's really a delicacy in the world. This is how your frontier fortress should be. If it hadn't been for our great expedition, you would have been dead long ago. Tell me, what are the conditions this time?"
I have to say that although the regent drank a lot of wine, his mind was still very clear. He knew that they went to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason. This was a tribute and a tribute to the dancing girl. There must be something wrong.
"I would like to ask the regent to open the market between the frontier fortress and the Dazheng. We can stipulate that there will be mutual markets on the first and fifteenth day of every month, so that the good things from our frontier fortress can go to the Dazheng, and the things from the Dazheng can be exported to the frontier fortress."
When the regent heard this, he thought that this proposal was a good one, but once the mutual market opened, it would be difficult to maintain the customs there. He could not agree to this easily. He had to think carefully about it.
"This is also a good suggestion, but this is a national matter. I cannot make the decision alone. I still have to wait for the emperor to make a decision."
When the envoy heard that he did not refuse immediately, there must be room for negotiation, and he felt a lot relieved.
After the night banquet, the envoy returned to the post house, and the man named Asai immediately came to his room.
"Master, I went out to inquire around today. The epidemic is still very serious now, and the person who treats the epidemic patients in the shantytown is actually Princess Donglin. This Princess Donglin has lost her former demeanor because of missing her. His princess spends her days drunk, and the Great Expedition sent many people to the south of the Yangtze River to control floods. We took advantage of their unpreparedness..."
The envoy stroked his beard when he heard this. He already had a plan in his mind. It would be best if Dazheng agreed to trade with each other. If he didn't agree, don't blame me for being rude.
In the palace, the Queen Mother was very unhappy because of the incident with the dancer.
And Chu Wanting seemed to notice that her aunt was in a bad mood. After all, they were all women, so naturally they had some small thoughts.
After the night banquet, she did not go back, but took the maid beside her to the Queen Mother's palace.
"My niece meets her aunt."
"Get up, have you tasted today's fruit?"
"I tried it. It's very sweet and juicy. It tastes really delicious."
"You're so late, but do you have something?"
"Aunt, I'm here to tell you good news. That Wang Yiyao has been infected with the epidemic."
Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother, who was a little drunk, suddenly sat up from the couch.
"It's true. How did you know the news?"
Chu Wanting told the Queen Mother everything that happened, which made the Queen Mother happy and felt very happy.
"Okay, my dear Ting'er, I finally relieved my aunt's resentment."
This Chu Wanting didn't just come to tell the Queen Mother this, she had her own purpose. Seeing that the Queen Mother was so happy, she quickly put forward her own conditions.
"Aunt, Ting'er has something to ask her to agree to."
