Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Dong, let's talk in steps."
Dong Tianjiang knew that there were people coming and going here and it was not a place for talking, so he whispered: "Sit down in a tavern and talk."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Dong, it seems that the news is not good. Most of the pubs in Yongdu have been closed."
Dong Tianjiang frowned.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Can you go to the house to talk?"
Meeting Dong Tianjiang is by no means Hu Xiaotian's ultimate goal. He wants to meet Emperor Yong Xue Shengjing through Dong Tianjiang. He follows Dong Tianjiang to the Office of the Minister of Civil Affairs and enters the courtyard where Dong Tianjiang lives alone. Hu Xiaotian takes off the scarf on his face
Heibu, who had now returned to his original appearance, smiled and clasped his fists, saying: "I rush to visit Brother Dong, but I will forgive you for being disrespectful."
General Dong Tian said: "I'm afraid you didn't come here just to reminisce about old times." He likes to be straightforward when doing things, and he also goes straight to the topic when he speaks.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Of course not, I came here this time because of the rat infestation in Yongdu."
General Dong Tian said: "Did I hear you right? When did you start paying attention to Dayong's affairs?" But he thought in his heart that if something happened to Dayong, Hu Xiaotian should be happy. Could it be that his real purpose is to find out some inside information from himself?
information.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Dong, don't you think this rat infestation is a little unusual?"
General Dong Tian said: "The matter has been found out. It was the work of spies from the Black Hu people. There were animal masters driving rats to attack the people and deliberately causing panic in Yongdu City. I say this, Mr. Hu is satisfied?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "It's not that simple, right?"
Dong Tianjiang looked at Hu Xiaotian and said: "What do you think the real reason is?" He was still wary of Hu Xiaotian. After all, the two sides had different positions. In his opinion, if something happened to Dayong, Hu Xiaotian would be too late to be happy.
.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Brother Dong should have heard of my medical skills at least."
Of course General Dong Tian had heard that Hu Xiaotian once cut a double eyelid for the Empress Dowager Jiang in Dayong. He also treated the late Emperor Xue Shengkang for an emergency. In comparison, the former was widely known, and the latter was only known to the royal family. He was indifferent.
He smiled and said, "I have no intention of questioning Mr. Hu's medical skills."
Hu Xiaotian came closer to him and whispered: "Have you heard of the plague that occurred in Xichuan more than a hundred years ago?"
Dong Tianjiang nodded. More than a hundred years ago, the plague occurred in Xichuan. In that plague, more than one million people died in Xichuan. Corpses were everywhere, and the situation was unprecedented. Later, Emperor Dakang decisively ordered the epidemic to be eliminated.
He sealed off the entire area and shot all the creatures in the affected areas. He paid a huge price to control the plague, and his actions also caused complaints from the people. It is said that the rise of Dayong is also related to the plague.
It was Emperor Dakang's energy that was constrained by the plague area in Xichuan, so he gave Xue Jiurang the opportunity to stand on his own feet. After the plague, it took Xichuan nearly fifty years to regain its former prosperity and stability.
Dong Tianjiang whispered: "Do you think what happened in Yongdu City was a plague?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Judging from the current situation, there is a high probability that it is plague."
General Dong Tian was shocked. But he immediately shook his head and said, "No, the court has already avoided the rumors."
"Which court"
Dong Tianjiang's expression suddenly became embarrassed.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Once this kind of thing is exposed, it will definitely cause panic in the city, and even lead to chaos in the whole territory. Brother Dong should have thought of the consequences."
General Dong Tian fell silent. If the plague breaks out in Yongdu, then Yongdu and even the whole of Dayong will be in danger of being isolated. Li Chenzhou is not a fool, and he cannot announce this rashly. If this matter breaks out,
It will be a huge threat to his power.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Everything in this world is interdependent. Even the plague is nothing to be afraid of. As long as it is handled properly, it can be controlled."
Dong Tianjiang looked at Hu Xiaotian with doubts. Although Hu Xiaotian showed enough goodwill, Dong Tianjiang still couldn't believe it. In fact, it was impossible for anyone to believe it easily. Dong Tianjiang doubted Hu Xiaotian's purpose. From Hu Xiaotian's perspective, help
Dayong was obviously not in his interest. In his heart, he wished that Dayong would be defeated.
General Dong Tian said: "You mean you have a way?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Actually, the person I wanted to find was Li Chenzhou."
Dong Tianjiang laughed and said: "Then why did you find me again?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Everything has two sides. As long as it is handled properly, bad things can turn into good things, but if not handled properly, good things can also turn into bad things. I'm afraid you are not as clear as me, an outsider, about Dayong's current situation. If I were
By giving this favor to Li Chenzhou, this good thing to win people's hearts fell on him. Does Brother Dong want to see this happen?"
Dong Tianjiang did not answer.
Hu Xiaotian said: "This matter is an opportunity for Brother Dong."
General Dong Tian said: "Why did you help me?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "I'm not helping you, but helping your cousin." General Dong Tian's cousin is Xue Daoming, the current emperor of Dayong.
General Dong Tian said: "It still doesn't seem to make sense."
Hu Xiaotian said: "If Li Chenzhou completely controls Dayong's regime, after he stabilizes the situation, the first person he wants to deal with is me. If there is someone in Dayong who can still compete with him, relatively speaking, I
It’s much safer.”
This reason was much more credible to General Dong Tian. He nodded slowly and said, "So you decided to give this favor to the emperor."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Whether you send it or not is my business, but whether you accept it or not depends on your wishes."
Dong Tianjiang's expression was complicated. He did not dare to make a decision lightly. He could only make a decision after consulting his father. When he was about to tell the truth, he heard a voice from outside: "Master, something serious has happened."
, something serious is going to happen.”
Dong Tianjiang stood up suddenly, but it was Dong An, a member of the Dong family, who came in. Dong An came to Dong Tianjiang out of breath and told him the matter in a panic. However, the emperor was also bitten by a mouse last night and now has a high fever.
Without retreating, Dong Bingtai, Dong Tianjiang's father, the Minister of Civil Affairs, received the news and had gone to the palace to visit the patient. The Dong family became a mess over this matter. After all, there are many rumors about the plague. If the emperor got the plague, that would be
Definitely not allowed to get close.
General Dong Tian was also shocked when he heard this. He asked Dong An to go first, grabbed Hu Xiaotian's arm and said urgently: "Tell me the truth, is there any way to cure the plague?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Although I can't, I have a friend who should be able to."
General Dong Tian said: "As long as you help me cure the emperor, everything will be easy to discuss."
Li Chenzhou was pacing back and forth in the Duke of Jing's Mansion, with his hands behind his back and a frown on his face. Just last night when he escaped from the danger in Goutou Mountain, he had not expected that things would develop to such a bad point. Just overnight
, Yongdu fell into such a dangerous situation.
At this time, the eldest princess Xue Lingjun arrived. She took off the veil on her face, her face full of fear. As soon as she entered the door, she said: "Shen Zhou, do you know that something happened to the emperor?"
Li Chenzhou came to Xue Lingjun and whispered: "Why are you here?"
Xue Lingjun grabbed his arm and said: "Last night there was a rat infestation in Yongdu. Countless people were bitten in their sleep. More than a hundred people were killed by rats and bats. I heard that many people fell ill today.
, all the major hospitals are overcrowded, and now even the emperor has fallen ill. Shen Zhou, tell me if it is the plague." Her voice trembled. In her opinion, the plague was much more terrifying than a scourge.
Li Chenzhou said resolutely: "Rumors, I have sent people to arrest the people who spread the rumors. The rat infestation and bat injuries last night were caused by the black bearded beast masters. Their purpose is to create chaos in Yongdu
, Lingjun, you don’t have to be afraid, the more times like this, the more important it is to stay calm and never get into trouble.”
Xue Lingjun said: "Chen Zhou, I feel relieved to hear you say that. I will go to the palace to visit the emperor." She gestured to leave, but Li Chenzhou grabbed her arm.
Li Chenzhou whispered: "You can't go."
Xue Lingjun slowly turned around, looked at Li Chenzhou with his beautiful eyes and said, "Why can't I go? As the emperor's aunt, he is seriously ill. If I don't go, I will be criticized."
Li Chenzhou pursed his lips, the expression on his face looked extremely complicated.
Xue Lingjun slowly shook his head and said: "You don't have to lie to me. Is it the plague? If it's not the plague, why do you want to stop me from visiting the palace?"
Li Chenzhou sighed and said: "Lingjun, I don't know either, but judging from the current situation, the possibility of plague cannot be ruled out."
When Xue Lingjun heard this, his pretty face suddenly turned pale, and his lips trembled as he said: "How could it be like this? How could it be so? Why would God treat Dayong like this?"
Li Chenzhou said: "It's not certain yet. I have sent people to investigate. I believe there will be clear results soon."
Xue Lingjun sat down on the chair sadly. The word retribution suddenly flashed in her mind. Could everything be retribution? Ever since she and Li Chenzhou joined forces to usurp power, unfortunate things have happened one after another. The plague almost destroyed Xichuan back then.
, if it hadn’t been for the Xichuan plague a hundred years ago, her ancestors might not have had the chance to found a country. And the plague that made Dayong great achievements now wants to destroy Dayong again?
Seeing that she was depressed, Li Chenzhou came to her side, placed his hands gently on her shoulders, and comforted her: "Don't worry, everything is still inconclusive. Even if things come to the worst, there is still a solution.
.”
Xue Lingjun asked: "How to solve the problem? Is it necessary to follow the practice of Dakang in the past, kill all the people in Yongdu, and burn all Yongdu with a fire?"
Li Chenzhou subconsciously tightened his hand on her shoulder, then pursed his lips and said: "Things may not deteriorate to this point. This matter was done by the Black Hu Beast Controller. I don't believe that they have the power to spread the word
Plague’s abilities.”
Xue Lingjun said: "What if it is really a plague? Dao Ming is dead, who else dares to sit on that dragon chair?"
