Huang Xingliang was shocked, and then asked: "Li Yunfeng, do you know your guilt? Because of your shocking actions, epidemics broke out in Furong Continent, and countless people died because of your wife and family."
He said that it was all right, why did the plague happen? It was all caused by Yuan Li. He was unwilling to leave his wife, but he killed many other people's wives. This was a serious crime among serious crimes.
Officer Li slowly raised his head and asked, "Where are my wife's bones?"
He didn't expect that even though he dealt with it carefully, they still saw the clues. When he woke up, everything changed.
When Officer Li asked about the bones, Huang Xingliang was shocked.
Li Yuanwai slowly said: "Sir, if I plead guilty, can my wife be returned to me? In fact, I should be the first person to be infected with the epidemic. I have been repeatedly infected and recovered. I have learned about it specially
Disease, for a special body like me, my blood can develop an antidote."
"Return my wife to me and let her rest in peace, and I will cooperate with you."
Li Yuanwai looked at Huang Xingliang firmly, as if he would kill him if he didn't meet his demands.
Huang Xingliang's face was cold: "You are so bold, you dare to threaten me!"
Officer Li took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and said, "Sir, I dare not threaten you. I just want my wife to be buried in peace."
Huang Xingliang frowned. If it had been like this, there would be no other disease.
Huang Xingliang looked at Zhou Zhi and asked, "Your Highness, this..."
Zhou Zhi said calmly: "I agree to your request. Now tell me, when did you get sick?"
Li Yuanwai slowly lowered his head and spoke slowly: "Two months ago, my wife was seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed. I tried every method I could think of, but she was still getting weaker day by day, and she became weaker and weaker when she was awake.
She came less and less, and on the morning of the sixth day of June, I woke up and found that she had left... From that day on, I did not allow servants to enter the main courtyard, and meals were delivered to the entrance of the main courtyard every day."
"Perhaps there are too many things that I can't let go of. I didn't feel sad, I just pretended that she was still there. I washed her hair and changed her clothes. She just seemed to be asleep, not like she was dead at all... I also felt
She was asleep, and it wasn't until she started to get covered in body spots and start to rot... I didn't realize that she was dead, but so what, she had been with me all my life, she was just physically dead, I firmly believe in her soul
Still by my side."
"Later, a mouse came to gnaw her body. I killed the mouse and was bitten by the mouse. Perhaps because of this, I was infected with the epidemic. At first, my throat hurt so much that I wanted to cough all day long. Later, I developed a high fever.
I just lay next to her, thinking that it would be good even if I went like this. At least we could meet again when we got downstairs. During those four days, I barely drank any water, and I quietly threw away all the food sent by the servants.
I thought I was going to die, but I didn’t expect that I got better again.”
"After I recovered, I was afraid that the mice would come to eat her body again, so I scraped her body clean myself. I remembered that she loved the buns I made when she was alive, so I made some buns in memory of her that day.
It happened that a man delivering firewood came during those few days, and I gave the buns to him to eat. Later, I heard from my servants that there was an epidemic in Furongzhou, and the whole city was under martial law. The symptoms were exactly the same as when I was sick. I
Only then did I realize that the disease might have passed through my place."
Mr. Li slowly told the whole story, pausing several times. He choked up when talking about his wife.
He didn't want to spread the disease, he just wanted to keep his wife by his side.
After hearing what Li Yuanwai said, Huang Xingliang sighed. Although it was pitiful for Li Yuanwai to lose his lover, he was also very hateful because he had caused the destruction of hundreds of families in Furongzhou alone.
"Your Highness, the Second Prince, I have said everything that needs to be said. Please be patient and allow my wife to rest in peace."
Mr. Li bent down and kowtowed. He knew that after the matter was found out, he would no longer be able to keep her. Even if he was convicted, he would admit it and just wanted her to rest in peace.
Let him bear all the consequences.
Huang Xingliang was also waiting for Zhou Zhi to speak. Zhou Zhi was responsible for this matter, so he could just listen to Zhou Zhi's orders.
Zhou Zhi looked at Mr. Li and said, "I agree to your request. As long as you cooperate with the doctor in developing an antidote, I will allow you and your wife to share a grave together after the disease disappears."
Even if Li Yuanwai was unintentionally selfish, the epidemic was caused by him after all, so Li Yuanwai would be condemned and his life could not be saved. Allowing them to be buried together as husband and wife was already the greatest mercy.
After hearing this, Yuan Li kowtowed solemnly and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."
Mr. Li also knew that this was the best ending, and he was already satisfied.
The person who accompanied him is gone, and there is nothing in this world that he deserves to miss. If this life is gone, it will be gone.
"Without further delay, take him to Jishitang and let the doctors develop an antidote as soon as possible."
Zhou Zhi ordered Huang Xingliang.
Huang Xingliang nodded and immediately asked people to take Mr. Li out.
Huang Xingliang also stood up and retreated. The source of the epidemic had been found, but there were nearly a thousand people infected with the epidemic in the city. In terms of prevention and control, strict control was still needed.
Su Xiaolu also stood up, and she said to Zhou Zhi: "Then I will go back to Jishi Hall, and I can save more people by developing the antidote as soon as possible.
Zhou Zhi also stood up and nodded, with a slight smile in his eyes: "Okay, go ahead. If you need anything, you can come to me directly."
Su Xiaolu said "hmm", then turned around and went out.
As soon as Su Xiaolu left, Zhou Zhi fell down on his seat, and Jin Wu behind him quickly supported him.
"Jin Wu, go back home."
Zhou Zhi's voice was trembling, and his endurance was about to reach its limit.
Jin Wu quickly carried Zhou Zhi back to his home.
As soon as he returned to the house, Jin Wu shouted loudly: "Please come over quickly, Mr. Wu."
Zhou Zhi was already unconscious, and his body was shivering uncontrollably and breaking into cold sweats.
Mr. Wu hurried over and without saying a word cut open the blood-soaked gauze and cleaned Zhou Zhi's wound. During this period, Zhou Zhi woke up from pain. He tremblingly took the medicine bottle beside the bed, pulled out the stopper and poured the pills into his mouth.
.
"Now that I know it hurts, why should I have gone earlier?"
Mr. Wu frowned and complained.
Zhou Zhi raised his pale lips and smiled, saying weakly: "Sir, I don't understand."
Mr. Wu was applying medicine to Zhou Zhi while wrapping the gauze around him. He snorted: "What don't I understand? It's just about men and women. I really don't know what I understand."
, Master said, I don’t understand. Is it worth it for His Highness to take the risk of amputating his limbs just for this matter?"
