Bai Qiqian didn't expect that his three-day appointment, which he had been looking forward to for so long, would actually be broken by him.
Another day, she was sitting in the courtyard, looking at the surrounding scenery in a daze. Yujin suddenly rushed in, took Bai Qiqian's hand, and said with a smile: "Princess, go and have a look, see who is coming
?”
Bai Qiqian felt happy, could it be that he is here?
He ran out excitedly, but the person waiting there was Ye Liyuan.
Bai Qiqian's face suddenly felt disappointed: "Yuan, why are you interested in coming to my place?" Bai Qiqian remembered that he had been very busy these days.
Occasionally she would go to the study, and he would sit there, reviewing official documents, as if she didn't exist.
"Qianqian, I have ignored you these past few days." Ye Liyuan chuckled, with a charming smile on his lips, and squeezed Bai Qiqian's hand, "Let's talk after we go in."
"Yuan, I've been so bored these days, I want to go out for a walk." Bai Qiqian pouted, "Last time you said you would go pray with me, but you didn't take me there now. Huh, what are you doing today?
If you’re not busy, why don’t you come out with me to get some fresh air?”
Ye Liyuan's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Okay, let's leave the house now."
Bai Qiqian nodded, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The two of them were sitting in the carriage, Ye Liyuan was close to Bai Qiqian's body, his warm breath fell on her cheek, causing a shiver.
Bai Qiqian's face turned slightly red, and she moved away slightly: "Yuan, I haven't seen you for a few days, why are you becoming more and more unruly?"
Ye Liyuan sat closer and closer, and he said reluctantly: "Qianqian, I haven't been with you these days. Do you blame me, or do you miss me?" His tone was innocent, like a child's.
Bai Qiqian deliberately ignored him, opened the carriage curtain and looked at the scene on the street.
Suddenly, a scene outside caught her attention. Bai Qiqian frowned and shouted: "Stop the car."
Ye Liyuan was stunned, then turned to look at Bai Qiqian: "Qianqian, what's wrong with you?" Seeing the solemn look on her face, Ye Liyuan frowned slightly and looked outside the car curtain.
Outside, a beggar in rags knelt down outside the door of "Jishan Hall" and kept kowtowing to the doctor inside: "Doctor, please save us, please be kind and save us."
The doctor came out and said impatiently: "Come on, let's go, we can't save everyone here."
The beggar continued to kneel on the ground: "Doctor, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, not to mention dozens of lives waiting for you to save. Doctor, please save us."
The doctor waved his hand: "You hurry up and don't affect my business."
The beggar left here with a desolate expression, looking up to the sky and crying: "What can we do? God..."
Bai Qiqian walked up to the beggar, looked at him a few times, and asked softly: "I just heard you say that dozens of your lives need medical treatment. What happened?"
The beggar knelt on the ground and begged: "The beggars in the Chenghuang Temple in the east of our city are all suffering from a strange disease. Yesterday, several people died. I ran out secretly and wanted to ask the doctor to save us, but...
"
"Suffering from a strange disease?" Ye Liyuan asked, "Or are there dozens of people?"
The beggar nodded quickly: "Just a few days ago, a mysterious man brought us a lot of delicious food, and almost everyone was able to share a pile of meat. However, after we finished eating, we began to feel uncomfortable.
.”
"Is it possible that I have a bad stomach?" Ye Liyuan frowned, "It is easy to have a bad stomach after eating so many things suddenly."
The beggar shook his head: "It can't be because of a bad stomach. Like us beggars, we often eat some rotten things. Even if we have a bad stomach, it only takes a day to get better. However, yesterday, several people died in the Chenghuang Temple.
It’s in place.”
Bai Qiqian has been looking at the beggar's face. His face is pale, but he is swollen. The exposed skin on his body is covered with herpes, and there is some blood oozing from it.
"Yuan, they are very likely to be infected with a febrile disease." Bai Qiqian whispered in Ye Liyuan's ear, "The situation is serious now. In my opinion, we should ask a senior doctor to take a look at them?
"
Ye Liyuan looked solemn: "Well, they really need a diagnosis."
The beggar said repeatedly: "Thank you, sir, thank you, madam."
Bai Qiqian warned him: "In the afternoon, we will send someone to treat you. You should stay well in the Chenghuang Temple and don't run around. If you let us know, you will not be able to blame us for not treating you."
"I will stay there well. Please rest assured, sir and madam." The beggar kowtowed repeatedly, "Thank you for your great kindness and your willingness to save us."
Ye Liyuan nodded and left with Bai Qiqian.
The two people were sitting in the carriage, no longer happy as before, their faces solemn and calm.
Bai Qiqian looked at his handsome face and felt a little pity in her heart: "Yuan, what happened this time is not that simple. I think this incident was planned deliberately by someone."
Ye Liyuan nodded: "I'd better write a letter to the emperor about this matter tomorrow."
Bai Qiqian sighed: "Why are there so many messy things? Although those people are beggars, they still have lives. It would be too childish to easily use dozens of lives like this."
Ye Liyuan closed his eyes and said nothing.
The atmosphere in the carriage fell into silence.
After the two of them left, a man in a green robe showed a fox-like smile. The man quickly returned to Prince Chen's Mansion and reported to Ye Ruochen: "Your Majesty, they have begun to notice the epidemic."
Ye Ruochen's hand holding the white jade cup showed slightly blue meridians, and the cinnabar on his eyebrows was bloody: "Haha, it seems that Ye Liyuan will write this matter to the emperor soon. When the time comes, we will spread the news.
, for a moment, everyone in the imperial city was in danger."
The man in green robe cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, this plan is very clever."
Ye Ruochen narrowed his eyes, and the smile on his lips was like a devil: "By the way, except for the beggar we deliberately let go these days, everyone else is firmly in the City God's Temple?"
There was a hint of discomfort on the face of the man in green robe: "Prince Qi, a little boy crawled out of the dog hole in the Chenghuang Temple. When our people went out to look for him, they did not find him."
Ye Ruochen slapped the table hard: "You bastards, you can't handle anything even if I ask you to do it. What's the use of you?"
The man in green robe knelt on the ground and kowtowed quickly: "Your Majesty, please spare my life. I will definitely find the little boy." A trace of cold sweat appeared on the forehead of the man in green robe.
Ye Ruochen snorted coldly: "Hmph, you'd better find that little boy as soon as possible. If something happens, I will definitely take your head."
There is no antidote for this epidemic caused by Baili Ruxuan. If the little boy had had too close contact with others, he would probably be able to easily spread the disease and get out of control.
Knowing what kind of commotion it would cause.
Seeing that he had saved his life, the man in green robe kowtowed repeatedly.
Ye Ruochen waved his hand and asked him to retreat.
After the man in green robe left, Baili Ruxuan came out from behind the screen: "Your Majesty, why don't you make the antidote now?"
Ye Ruochen nodded: "That's okay, having an antidote is always better than not having an antidote."
*** Locking the Qing Palace, a loud noise came from outside the courtyard gate.
Bai Qiqian asked: "Ziyuan, what happened outside the courtyard gate?"
Ziyuan walked in with a hint of displeasure on her eyebrows: "Princess, Mrs. Chujing is teaching a little boy. If you disturb the princess, I will go out and talk to you."
Yu Jin interrupted and said: "Princess, I think that little boy looks very pitiful. Why don't we rescue him from Mrs. Chu Jing's hands." Yu Jin opened a pair of big shining eyes and looked pitifully.
Bai Qiqian.
Bai Qiqian nodded: "Okay, let's go out and have a look together."
Suoqing Hall, there was a commotion outside.
The little boy knelt on the ground and said pitifully: "Madam, I don't dare anymore. Please spare my life."
Bai Qiqian walked out slowly and asked in a deep voice: "There is so much noise at the entrance of the courtyard, what happened?"
Mrs. Chu Jing bowed to Bai Qiqian: "Princess, Chu Jing came to Suo Qing Palace to say hello to the princess. Unexpectedly, she saw this little boy sneaking around at the door of Suo Qing Palace, so..."
Chu Jing stopped talking and sighed: "I disturbed the princess's rest. Chu Jing is here to apologize to the palace."
Bai Qiqian waved her hand: "Child, just give me a lesson."
Chu Ding nodded: "The princess is right. Since this little boy has evil intentions at the gate of Suoqing Hall, we should ask the princess to deal with him."
Bai Qiqian took a look at the little boy and saw that his whole body was tightly wrapped and airtight. In such a hot weather, it was really strange that he could keep himself from being so hot.
The little boy had something smeared on his face and looked dirty.
Bai Qiqian frowned slightly: "Yu Jin, take him to freshen up."
A slight smile appeared on Chu Jing's lips: "The princess is indeed kind-hearted and kind-hearted. It's getting late, so Chu Jing will leave first."
Bai Qiqian said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Chujing, walk slowly."
Chu Jing left Suoqing Hall with his maid, a strange light flashed in his eyes.
Bai Qiqian and his party walked into the courtyard. The little boy looked a little dazed and a little scared. His dark eyes stared at Yu Jin: "I... I don't want to wash my face..."
Yu Jin patted the little boy's hand and said, "Be obedient. After you wash yourself, we will give you a lot of delicious food."
As soon as he heard that there were a lot of delicious food, the fear in the little boy's eyes became more and more serious, and he nodded repeatedly: "I... I don't want to eat delicious food... Please let me leave here..."
Yu Jin looked at him curiously: "If you want to sneak into the palace, why do you want to leave?"
The little boy knelt on the ground, with tears in his dark eyes: "...I...I...I didn't want to enter the palace...it was a sister dressed in black...brought me in...
"
Bai Qiqian was stunned for a moment, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
