Rebirth of the Blind

I don’t know if the heavens have begun to favor Qin Jian, the half-year-long rain has gradually subsided. At first everyone thought it was the same as in the past, but it was nothing but joy. After a few days, it will still continue to rain. But after seven or eight days, the sun was still shining, and people gradually relaxed their minds. However, there are still many people who open their windows first to see the weather outside.

It's a pity that although the rain has stopped, the plague is still spreading, and it is spreading at an extremely fast speed, and everyone is at a loss.

The city lord Qin Jian had aged a lot in half a month, and the three people who sent Qin Jian had also been staying up late for a long time.

Ling Qi pushed open the door of the pharmacy, and just stepped into the room when someone hurriedly called to stop him.

"Get out immediately! I don't like having outsiders around when I'm refining medicine!" Mu Yangfeng stared at the medicine stove in front of him, his eyes reflected the candlelight, and his expression was extremely bad.

As soon as he entered the city, he had expected this plague early on. He thought it would erupt and it would erupt. At that time, he really couldn't develop the medicine and ran away. Anyway, Ling Yuancheng didn't dare to do anything to him.

But——, this time, Qin Jue had at least one person in every household suffer from the plague, and up to now, five hundred people have been found to have the plague, so he couldn't help it.

And that plague...he wasn't sure he could develop a medicine.

Regardless of Mu Yangfeng's words, Ling Qi walked in, saw Mu Yangfeng looking at the medicine stove in front of him with a solemn face, and asked, "How sure are you?"

Mu Yangfeng turned his head and ignored it, but secretly asked himself how sure he was.Although he has been studying medicine since he was a child, many people regard him as a miracle doctor, but he still knows how much he weighs.

He was not at all sure about this plague.In a short period of time, the infection speed of this plague exceeded his expectations.

"Did the lord do what the grass people said?"

"Well, this king has already placed 500 people who got the plague in a secluded place, and their family members are under surveillance. Anyone who is infected with the plague can be sent to that place immediately."

"My lord, to tell you the truth, the grassroots are not sure." Mu Yangfeng said in a low voice, he rarely bowed his head, "If their disease is like the plague, I may still have a cure, but it has been so long , the grass people are diagnosed and treated every day, but the cause is still unclear. For the time being, I can only prescribe some heat-clearing and detoxifying medicines for them, hoping to relieve a little."

"This disease... is it really so difficult?"

"Yes. Let me tell you the truth. When I took the pulse, I only knew that they had the same disease, but I didn't know what it was. Even though I searched the classics, I still found nothing." In his tone, he had never had of helplessness and frustration.

Ling Qi concealed his worries, "Brother Huang has sent five imperial physicians to assist you, as well as various medicinal materials."

"kindness."

After walking out of the medicine stove, Ling Qi looked up at the sky, it was blue and blue, and the warm sun shone on him, but as soon as you went out to the street, Qin Jian without the rain was even more bleak than before, and you could see it everywhere. Seeing the people crying for their relatives, people can't help but be in a daze. Is this really the Qin Jiancheng from before?

Wei Yan took a letter from the dark guard, "Did the Eighth Prince really say that?"

"Yes, Eunuch Wei."

Wei Yan didn't show his expression, "Go back first, and continue to protect the Eighth Prince, without making any mistakes."

"Yes."

Wei Yan put the letter in his arms, and after dismissing all the palace people at Lingao Palace, he put the letter in front of Ling Yuancheng, "Your Majesty, this is from the Eighth Prince."

Ling Yuancheng remained silent, put the pen in his hand back to its original position, and tore off the seal of the letter with a gloomy face.There were only three short lines in the letter, but Ling Yuancheng's face darkened to the bottom of the valley, and the hand holding the letter directly slapped the imperial platform.

Wei Yan closed his eyes, not listening to the voice that could make one's heart tremble.He understood why His Majesty was so angry, and he could basically guess the contents of the letter from the words of the two hidden guards.

"where are they?"

"The slaves have told them to go back and protect the Eighth Prince."

"Immediately issue another secret decree to let the Eighth Prince return to the palace quickly."

Wei Yan slumped his shoulders almost invisibly, "Your Majesty, the Eighth Prince asked the hidden guard to convey a word to you. He will definitely finish the things you entrusted him before returning to the palace. Please don't interfere too much, Your Majesty."

"It seems that he doesn't care about the queen mother at all, and he is thinking about the eighth younger brother when he embarrasses the mother." After the yin and yang finished speaking, Ling Yuancheng returned to his calm expression, "Wei Yan, if the news reaches the ears of the queen mother, you know it will how."

"Return to Your Majesty, this servant knows what to do. From now on in Jinlan Palace, the maids and eunuchs are not allowed to leave."

"kindness."

"You step back first, I want to be quiet for a while."

"promise."

After Wei Yan left, Ling Yuancheng picked up the letter again.

There were only a few lines in the letter, [Brother Huang, Qin Jian has discovered that 500 people have the plague, and the ministers have arranged them according to Mu Yangfeng's intention. I hope the brother Huang will give Mu Yangfeng more time to develop the medicine, Ling Qi. 】500 people got the plague, how can Ling Qi be alone in the future?

Xiao Xizi who came out with the wash water felt that she must be dazzled, otherwise how could she see the master who had been serving His Majesty for half a month came back?While walking, she pinched her cheek, "Ah, it hurts so much—!" Xiao Xizi hurriedly rubbed her cheek with her palm, then walked in front of the master with hesitation, and put her hand on his shoulder, "Master?"

"En." Xia replied lightly, without saying much.After Zhang Luo brought him back, he only explained that he could not tell anyone that he was out of the palace during this time, but stayed in His Majesty's bedroom to take care of His Majesty.He doesn't lie very much, so the best way is to talk less.

"Master, why are you so thin? The servant thought you would come back fat. After all, His Majesty's food is much better."

"I can't eat well." Xia replied helplessly.

After exchanging pleasantries, Lord Li, whom His Majesty sent to teach him how to read, brought the five cards to Xia's bedroom.

"Young Master, I came here on His Majesty's will, and I will teach you here in the future."

Xia nodded slowly.

In one morning, he only learned those few stereotyped words, and understood their basic meanings. In the afternoon, Mr. Li did not bring any new stereotypes, but talked to him about the recent events in a casual manner. .

"Does your son know what happened recently?"

Xia shook his head, he seldom heard these things, and he was on his way out of the palace all the time, so how could he hear any news, and he was not interested in those things at all.

Master Li knew Xia's reaction long ago, so he replied without waiting for Xia's answer: "The biggest thing recently is the outbreak of the plague in Qin Yucheng."

Qin Jian?Xia felt that the name of this place was very familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while. "Master Li, is there a plague in Qin Jian?"

"Yes, just as His Majesty expected, the plague broke out not long after the envoys went there. I heard from people outside the palace that the number of people infected with the plague in Qin Yucheng is at least this number." Fingers out, no one responded. It was only later that he remembered that the master was invisible, and silently lowered his hands, "Qin Jian has as many as 500 people affected by the plague."

Envoy?Xia suddenly realized something and replied: "Master Li is talking about the Qin Dynasty City where the Eighth Prince went?"

"Yes. Now most of the civil and military people in the Manchu Dynasty advocate closing the city for a long-term plan. Only the prime minister disagrees. The prime minister thinks that if the matter is not fully understood, closing the city rashly will cause panic. I don't know what you think?"

The flaw in the absent-mindedness is that Xiaoxizi suddenly realized after bumping his arm, "Master Li asked me?"

"Well, whose method do you think the young master thinks is correct? You can just talk about it casually. I haven't taken a good position yet, so listen to your opinions."

Xia lowered her head in embarrassment, "Lord Li, I can't even write words..." The subtext was why you asked me such profound questions?

"My lord, just talk casually." Master Li sat down and poured himself a cup of tea. He watched the perplexed man repeatedly touch the words he had carved on the table, and suddenly raised his head and asked him, "Master Li, why are you so angry?" Those people would advocate closing the city?"

Master Li was stunned for a moment, and then quickly replied: "That's right. In the past, when a plague broke out in Ling country, the method of closing the city would be adopted, because only in this way can the plague be prevented from spreading to other towns. More importantly, The plague has not been completely cured for a long time, so to a large extent, the people understand that once the city is closed, you can only wait to die or be ordered to slaughter."

"If that's the case, I think the prime minister is doing the right thing."

"Oh?" Master Li looked at Xia unexpectedly, "Why do you say that, Young Master?"

Xia smiled lightly, "No, I just thought of something. Master Li said that once the city is closed, the people of Qin Jian will fall into depression and despair, because the only thing waiting for them is death, and the escape route will be completely blocked. But if the city is not closed, they can still have the courage to fight against the disease. No one can be sure that there will be a miracle. More soldiers can be sent to guard the city gate. When the plague is really out of control, there is still time to close the city, isn't it? "

Xia's meaning is very superficial, but the deep part has not mentioned a single point, but Mr. Li thinks that these words are easy to understand and feasible.

"Young master is right." He probably understood what to do.

In the middle of the night, a guest was welcomed in the prime minister's mansion, and the old prime minister went out to greet him in person.It was rare for the prime minister to hold the man's hand with a kind smile on his face, "Lord Li, the old man has been waiting for you."

"The Prime Minister is humbled, how can the next official, He De, let the Prime Minister wait."

"I won't talk too much about the polite words, how about Mr. Li having a glass of wine with the old man?"

Master Li nodded with a smile, "The lower officials can only be respectful rather than obedient."

After drinking for three rounds, both of their faces were flushed, but their eyes were still shrewd.Mr. Li stood up holding a glass of wine, and said to the prime minister, "Master Prime Minister, I would like to respect you for a glass of wine."

"Master Li said so, then the old man will not be polite. Please." After drinking a glass of wine at the same time, the two looked at each other and smiled. "I don't know if Mr. Li is here today, but he wants to reply to what the old man said a few days ago?"

"Prime Minister, you really have a pair of sharp eyes, and nothing can escape your eyes." The smiling mouth returned to a flat arc, "Prime Minister, the lower officials will stand by your side tomorrow morning, but the lower officials are soft-spoken, and may not How useful it is, I hope you don't dislike it."

Hearing Master Li's words, the prime minister's smile grew bigger and bigger, "Master Li is really humble, you alone can stand up to ten people."
