Li Huang was surprised. Could it be that there was such a big movement just now?
However, how can a good mountain be trampled?
The steaming hot meal was served on the table, but Mo Jingzhan didn't come back for a while.
Li Huang realized that the matter was a bit serious, and immediately lost his taste. He got up and prepared to go out and take a look.
At this time, Mo Jingzhan came back.
"What? Is the matter difficult?" She stood up and approached him, asking with concern.
Mo Jingzhan's eyes darkened and he said seriously: "It is indeed a bit tricky. That mountain did not collapse naturally."
When Li Huang heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and his mind instantly recalled the news that had come back from Pengcheng.
So, she asked.
Mo Jingzhan nodded: "They found traces of gunpowder near that mountain. I guess some gunpowder was originally hidden there, but it exploded for some unknown reason."
That's why the whole mountain was shaken, causing such a big earthquake.
"I wonder if there are any casualties among the people." Li Huang thought of the bursts of earth cracking just now. If they hadn't all been prepared to stay close to them, they would have easily fallen into the cracks in the ground.
"Don't worry, there are few residents nearby, so the casualties should not be large. However, the people in that area probably didn't expect that such a dangerous thing could be hidden near where they live."
Having said this, Mo Jingzhan's eyes became a little darker.
No matter what, these are the people under his rule. If unnecessary turmoil is caused, it will be his responsibility.
Who hid the gunpowder there? And who set off the explosion?
What does the other party want to do?
Moreover, where did the Turks come from?
"Okay, let's eat first. These things can't be figured out in a short while." Li Huang pulled him to the dining table and handed him the chopsticks, "I also want to hear what you said about the Rong family.
Matters related to the old military department.”
She really didn't expect that after he fell off the cliff, he would find the old headquarters of the Rong family army that had been hidden for many years.
I originally thought that those soldiers who were missing or killed in battle were plotted against.
But I never thought that they could still survive until now.
"By the way, I also encountered some things when I came to Sanzhou this time, and I was just about to tell you."
Li Huang told him everything about the huge underground palace in Sanzhou and the fact that he had refined many blood cups.
Mo Jingzhan immediately fell silent after listening.
It's not that he has never doubted Mo Yu's identity before, but that woman disguised herself really well. In addition, he didn't stay in Prince An's Mansion for long and spent most of his time traveling. Therefore, he had no idea whether she was true or false.
There is no way to verify it.
Ever since she went back to the capital and caused such an incident, he has been wary of this woman and even let his cronies go.
But he really didn't expect that she could cause such a big thing.
"There should be more than one entrance to the underground palace. The entrance you came out of is damaged. There may be other places. I will have people check this matter. You don't have to worry."
Mo Jingzhan felt unspeakably distressed when he thought about her being locked up in that underground palace for so many days.
If he hadn't married her, he knew without even thinking that someone in the court would use this to accuse him of being disobedient.
After finishing the meal, the couple took a hot bath and then fell asleep together.
However, less than two hours after I fell asleep, subordinates came over to report in a hurry.
"Young Master, Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess, something big has happened."
The couple who were woken up drowsily sat up and glanced at the sky outside the window. It was still dark outside.
"What's the matter?" Mo Jingzhan stood up, pulled down the bed curtain, walked over and opened the door, "What time is it now?"
The secret guard reported respectfully: "Back to you, young master, it is just after Yin Shi, but for some unknown reason, the group of Turks who escaped suddenly lost their traces."
Mo Jingzhan frowned: "That's it?"
Seeing his young master's face getting darker and darker, the secret guard quickly told him the most important thing.
"The moat outside the city has been poisoned. Many people and soldiers have been poisoned. Master Xiao is recruiting all the doctors in the city to treat it together."
As soon as he heard that someone had poisoned the river, Li Huang, who was still lying on the bed, suddenly opened the curtain.
"What did you say? It was poisoned? Is the poison important?"
Then this matter is big. The people of the entire Jade City depend on the water of the river to live. If it is highly poisonous, then everyone in this city will have to die.
She put on a coat, walked to the door in three steps, and looked fixedly at the secret guard who came to report.
The secret guard cupped his hands at her and said respectfully: "Back to Princess Princess, because it was discovered in time, those who drank the water were not seriously poisoned. With Master Xiao here, the problem should not be big, but it is so big."
The Turkic troops disappeared out of thin air, and my subordinates were worried that they would go back to other cities to poison them."
If this is the case, then the land of Three Continents will be in danger.
The couple looked at each other quickly, and both saw a bit of speculation in each other's eyes.
"Where are the poisoned people and soldiers placed now?" Li Huang asked.
"Back to Your Highness, everyone is gathered in the open space at Caishikou. A shed has been set up and we are just waiting for Master Xiao to prepare the antidote."
Mo Jingzhan sent the man away, and Li Huang took the robe for him and put it on: "I'll go with you."
Mo Jingzhan held her hand and said with distressed eyes: "It's still early, you can sleep a little longer, I can go alone."
Li Huang shook his head: "How can I still sleep after such a big thing happened?"
Mo Jingzhan knew that she always cared about the people the most, so he didn't say anything more. After tidying up her robe, he pulled her out of the door.
Ruoda's vegetable market has already been filled with temporary isolation sheds.
The area dozens of feet away was tightly guarded by soldiers.
As soon as Mo Jingzhan and Li Huang appeared, they were recognized by the soldiers: "Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness, there are all patients who have been poisoned. We don't know if the poison is contagious at the moment. You two should not go in."
It’s good.”
Li Huang frowned: "Where is Mr. Xiao?"
The soldier replied: "Back to your highness, Mr. Xiao is currently discussing the antidote with the city's doctors in the Baicao Hall."
Li Huang nodded when he heard this and took Mo Jingzhan to Baicao Hall.
Baicaotang is the closest clinic to Caishikou. At this moment, there are at least a dozen doctors sitting inside.
As soon as Li Huang entered the door, he saw that there were all old men with gray beards inside, and Xiao Yunlan sat alone in the middle, which was particularly conspicuous.
"Mr. Xiao, I am afraid that there is not enough medicinal herbs in the city right now. We still need to send someone to the nearby city for secondment."
"No, borrowing medicinal materials is not the most important thing right now. The most important thing is to prevent the spread of toxins in the poisoned person's body first!"
