Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 504 Disobedience
The palace, the imperial study.

Li Shimin was still hesitating, but Su Dingfang and the others couldn't wait.

"Your Majesty, smallpox is still raging, and the people's emotions are becoming more and more difficult to control. If you don't give orders, I'm afraid it will arouse people's resentment."

"Your Majesty, there are not many smallpox patients today, and the attack will not cause too much impact, but if we wait a little longer, the smallpox disease cannot be cured, and the situation will be bad."

"........."

Everyone persuaded, Li Shimin looked up at everyone, and finally said after a long time: "Su Dingfang takes orders."

"The end is here!"

"I... I ordered you to lead the army to eradicate and burn all the smallpox patients in Dead Man's Lane."

Su Dingfang said: "The last general takes orders, but the Holy One, what about the ninth princess?"

Li Shimin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said, "Let's kill together!"

As an emperor, when he is cruel, he can make everyone feel that the blood in his body is cold.

But he had no choice, no choice.

After Su Dingfang took the order, he hurriedly retreated, and brought his soldiers and horses to the Alley of the Dead.

At this time, thousands of smallpox patients had gathered in the Alley of the Dead. The patients inside were in great pain, howling, and they hadn't even had food for a day.

In front of the Alley of the Dead, there were more than a dozen corpses. These were smallpox patients who wanted to rush out of the Alley of the Dead, but they were hacked to death by the soldiers guarding the Alley of the Dead.

Those soldiers wore masks for fear of being infected.

Faced with this situation, they also became cold-blooded.

In fact, many soldiers are cold-blooded, not cold-blooded, how to kill the enemy on the battlefield?
Su Dingfang brought soldiers and horses to the Alley of the Dead. He cast a glance at the patients in the Alley of the Dead, and then waved his hand: "There is an order from the Holy Spirit that all patients suffering from smallpox should be shot."

They didn't dare to go in, so they could only shoot with sharp arrows.

At one command, the archers are ready.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Do not kill."

The voice was a bit crisp, but it sounded pleasant to the ear. Immediately afterwards, Sun Simiao rushed over with Bian Suwen. When the smallpox patients saw them, they all knelt down in the Alley of the Dead.

"I beg Miracle Doctor Sun to save us, I beg Miracle Doctor Sun to save us..."

The desire for life is sometimes beyond human imagination, and at this time Sun Simiao is their only hope.

Sun Simiao walked over with the support of Bian Suwen. He was already in his sixties and seventies, but he was still old after all, although he didn't look old.

As a doctor, his duty has always been to save people, even if there is no hope, he must save people instead of just killing them.

Hearing that Li Shimin was going to kill these patients, he hurried over.

"General Su, you can't kill them, they are all sick, don't you have the heart to kill them?" Sun Simiao looked at Su Dingfang and asked.

However, facing a genius doctor like Sun Simiao, Su Dingfang just chuckled: "They are alive, they will only make more and more healthy people infected with smallpox and die, they are not patients, they are disasters, it is only because you, a genius doctor, have no sense ability to treat these patients.”

Su Dingfang's cold-blooded words made Sun Simiao feel a burst of guilt, yes, he is useless, otherwise how could he watch these patients being killed.

"Archers prepare..."

Su Dingfang yelled, those smallpox patients suddenly showed panic, and Sun Simiao could not save them.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly came: "I see who dares!"

The voice fell, and a soldier and horse galloped from the street.

Everyone's hearts were shocked, and they turned their heads to look, and saw Cheng Yaojin leading his soldiers and horses rushing over. Cheng Yaojin was running very fast, and the soldiers and horses behind him had just experienced a fight not long ago, and their bodies were exuding That kind of murderous aura immediately suppressed all of Su Dingfang's people.

Su Dingfang frowned slightly when he saw Cheng Yaojin came back.

"I don't know who it is, so it's Duke Lu, but I don't know what Duke Lu is going to do?" Su Dingfang didn't pay attention to Cheng Yaojin, and his words were quite disdainful.

Cheng Yaojin glanced at Su Dingfang, and said: "What are you going to do? The Lord of the State is here to prevent you from killing people. Who dares to do anything to these smallpox patients today? The Lord of the State's soldiers and horses will kill anyone immediately."

These words were extremely domineering, and when the patients heard this, a warm current rushed over them. Seeing Cheng Yaojin like this, Su Dingfang was not in a hurry: "Your Majesty's order, how dare you disobey it?"

The archer was still preparing, Cheng Yaojin didn't answer Su Dingfang's words, he just waved his hand, and then, his troops surrounded Su Dingfang's men directly, and Su Dingfang also led a hundred or so people, Facing Cheng Yaojin's thousands of soldiers and horses, it was really nothing.

The momentum was overwhelming, those archers were surrounded like this, and seeing the murderous intent in their eyes, they immediately put away their bows and arrows in fright.

Seeing this, Su Dingfang was furious, and shouted: "This is an order from the Holy Majesty, Cheng Yaojin, do you really want to disobey this order?"

"These smallpox patients can't die, they still need to be cured, so you won't be allowed to kill them."

Cheng Yaojin was a bit of a rogue, and he didn't want to talk to Su Dingfang too much. He felt disgusted if he told Su Dingfang too much.

Su Dingfang didn't think much about his words, and said, "Okay, okay, just wait."

With so many people, they must not be killed. Su Ding and Fang Fei got on his horse and hurried to the palace. Cheng Yaojin dared to disobey, so he had to impeach him in front of Li Shimin.

Su Dingfang left, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Sun Simiao looked at Cheng Yaojin and asked, "Lu Guogong, you just said that smallpox can be cured, but is it true?"

He couldn't even cure smallpox, and he felt that Cheng Yaojin must have said this to deceive Su Ding.

Cheng Yaojin said: "Qin Tian said it can be cured, then it must be cured, wait for Qin Tian to come and see what he has to say."

Hearing that it was Qin Tian who said it, Sun Simiao had some expectations in his heart, and those who had smallpox were even more hopeful.

Outside the Alley of the Dead, there were still many people who clamored to kill those smallpox patients before, but now they were frightened by Cheng Yaojin's aura. Although they shouted not to leave, no one dared to come forward.

Even Su Dingfang didn't dare, how dare they common people?
The tense atmosphere in Dead Man's Alley was finally relieved. Sun Simiao and Bian Suwen did not leave, but stayed on the other side of Dead Man's Alley, waiting for Qin Tian's arrival.

"Lu Guogong, when Lord Qin Hou will come?" Bian Su asked, having not seen Qin Tian for a long time, and suddenly missed him a little.

"Hurry up, he's gone to the princess mansion, and he should be able to come after seeing the princess."

Hearing this, Bian Suwen nodded, but suddenly there was a strange feeling in his heart, the cold wind was still blowing, and everyone was waiting for Qin Tian's arrival.

Everyone pinned their hopes on him.
