The hero fell for the cannon fodder maid.

Xiao Wanyue didn't know what was going on in this man's mind. He also knew that Jiangzhou was dangerous, so she should go there. How could she let her brother suffer alone?

Xiao Wanyue stated her attitude: "I am going. I can't let my brother go like this. You know, the plague is not something to be joked about."

He Jingming: "I know you have medical skills, but I'm still worried."

Xiao Wanyue: "I will protect myself. I won't do anything I'm not sure of."

He Jingming saw that her eyes were full of determination and knew that she was determined to go to Jiangzhou. In fact, he just didn't want Xiao Wanyue to leave him. He knew that he was a very selfish and possessive man, but he couldn't be cold-hearted towards her.

Alas, he knew he was poisoned.

He was poisoned by a poison called Xiao Wanyue.

Now she is the legitimate daughter of the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, a princess, which is so compatible with his status. In the past, he always felt that she was coveting him because of her low status, and always thought badly of her.

He always hurt her with words. He laughed at himself and thought that this was what he deserved. It was because he was so illiterate and always thought he was superior to others. Now there was always a gap between them.

He Jingming: "Okay, I promise you, but I will send secret guards to follow you to protect you. You can't run away again. If I find out that you did something to offend me in Jiangzhou, you will bear the consequences."

He smiled and said with stars in his eyes, he was waiting for her return.

Xiao Wanyue finally breathed a sigh of relief. This bastard finally showed his worth for once. She had thought that he would not let her go to Jiangzhou.

He Jingming looked at the woman's jade-like face and the shining stars. Thinking of separation, he felt reluctant in his heart. He hugged her in his arms and whispered in her ears for a while before he reluctantly let go of Xiao Wanyue.

Xiao Wanyue's face was rosy and she was panting slightly, her lips were crystal clear, which made He Jingming feel itchy and lustful. He really wanted to deal with this little goblin.

It's not his fault for his lack of self-control; it's mainly because the beauty's eyes are full of charm. It would be abnormal for him not to react to such a beautiful woman, especially one he has liked and fantasized about for a long time.

He Jingming: "Yue'er, I'm waiting for you to come back in the capital."

Xiao Wanyue: "Okay."

He Jingming left the palace. Xiao Wanyue tossed and turned in bed alone. She suddenly couldn't sleep. After thinking for a while, she went into the space to study her herbs.

The medicinal herbs grown in the space are extraordinary in effect, so she needs to collect more and go to Jiangzhou to be on the safe side.

He Jingming returned to the palace and started today's morning court. It felt like a lifetime since he last attended court for more than a month.

Looking at the officials below, he felt inexplicably irritated.

The chief eunuch Wang Gui beside him shouted, "I have a petition to submit. If there is nothing else, please withdraw!"

Minister of Rites Zhang Ju stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the Autumn Examination is still three months away. We have compiled the rules and procedures for this examination. Your Majesty, please review them. The timeline is tight, and the court is currently short of talent. Could you please relax the examination policy?"

He Jingming: "Present it."

Wang Gui walked down the stairs, took the memorial, bent down, walked to the emperor, and respectfully handed it to He Jingming.

He Jingming took it and read it quickly. There were no major problems in each process. These matters were also the result of discussions among the officials of the Ministry of Rites. However, the selection of talents can indeed be based on merit, but the character of the candidates still needs to be investigated.

He closed the memorial and said, "Just follow the instructions above. If there are any unreasonable points, please submit them to me for review in a timely manner. If there are any shortcomings, you can also report them to me. The imperial examination is originally for selecting talents. I hope that all ministers will do their utmost."

The ministers shouted in unison: "Yes, Your Majesty, we obey your command."

There were some other problems afterwards, including the issue of supplies in Jiangzhou. Raising food became a big problem.

Xie Yu advocated that officials in the court donate money. The court officials were unhappy, but since the emperor had spoken, they did not dare to act rashly. They could not help but secretly resent Xie Yu for meddling in other people's affairs.

He Jingming was quite happy. With this money, the problems in Jiangzhou would be easier to solve.

He also issued an edict to assign most of the imperial physicians to Jiangzhou. The imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau had no choice but to obey the edict and go to Jiangzhou. He also recruited many doctors from the folk to go with them.

There were also many medicinal herbs accompanying it.

After the court session, He Jingming called Xie Yu and asked him to go to Jiangzhou with him. He believed that with these two people going, the matter would be resolved quickly and Xiao Wanyue would be safer.

The team to quell the rebellion was very large, with an army of more than 6,000 people, including troops, food, imperial doctors, doctors, as well as clothes and cloth.

Xiao Wanyue was among them, but she was wearing men's clothes because it was not very convenient for girls.

She rode a horse and followed the main force. There were people protecting her around her. He Chuan was among them, and there were several secret guards that she didn't know about.

They didn't notice anything unusual on the way to Jiangzhou, but when they arrived in Linzhou, which was closer to Jiangzhou, they found something wrong. There were not many people on the streets of Linzhou, and their complexions were a little abnormal. They were pale, with dark circles under their eyes, dry lips, and violent coughs, all of which told everyone that the situation was not good.

After discussing with several generals, Xiao Lingqing asked people to scout the way. Xiao Wanyue stepped forward and asked those people to wear masks and disinfect. They went and came back in a hurry.

The two soldiers said, "General, those people are sick, and some of them are already dead. They haven't taken care of the bodies, and some have rotted away. It's scary to look at. They must have contracted a disease."

Another said, "And they have pimples on their faces."

Xiao Wanyue knew it was a plague as soon as she heard it. She studied medicine, and she knew it was a plague from the descriptions of these people. It was actually not very difficult to treat. Traditional Chinese medicine is profound and the smart young people had already developed a set of prescriptions for treating the plague, which was vaccination.

Xiao Lingqing called Xie Yu to discuss what to do.

Xiao Lingqing: "Brother Xie, let's set up camp here first, send a few teams of soldiers to check the situation in the surrounding villages, and also send people to Jiangzhou. It's up to you to go or not."

Xie Yu said: "You are the general, I will listen to you. I can't leave here without you, so I will go."

Xiao Lingqing nodded: "Then be careful and go get some herbs from my sister."

Xie Yu waved his hand and said, "I understand. Wait for my news."

He went to find Xiao Wanyue. Xiao Wanyue knew his purpose and gave him some medicine to prevent the epidemic. She also gave medicine to everyone who came to inquire about the situation.

Xiao Lingqing ordered people to set up camp and send soldiers to protect the food, fodder and medicinal materials, as these were the most important.

Xiao Wanyue went to her own tent, which was specially arranged by Xiao Lingqing and was not far from the main tent.

In fact, Xiao Wanyue also wanted to go and take a look, but Xiao Lingqing was unwilling to let her go.

Xiao Lingqing sent someone to find the prefect of Linzhou to find out the situation, only to find out that the prefect had also contracted an epidemic and was in critical condition. However, the prefect's son was a scholar, and he was very familiar with Linzhou. He was originally going to the capital to take the imperial examination, but he didn't expect the epidemic to break out in Linzhou and he could only wait for rescue in Linzhou. He was so heartbroken that he didn't expect the court to send someone.

They were saved.
