Chapter 68
"What happened to me yesterday?" Wei Xingzhi signaled Fu Lianzi to put down the porridge, and raised his hand to rub his temples.

Fu Lianzi said, "Your Excellency suddenly fell ill yesterday. Fortunately, Your Excellency Ma escorted the imperial physician to arrive in time. Otherwise, Your Excellency will not know how serious the illness will be."

"Master Ma? The Imperial Physician?" Wei Xingzhi's expression changed suddenly.

Last night, she seemed to see... the emperor!
Wei Xingzhi hurriedly tossed off the quilt, and as soon as his legs hit the ground, his head became dizzy for a while, and he staggered and fell to the floor.

"My lord!" Fu Lianzi rushed forward to support Wei Xingzhi.

Wei Xingzhi didn't care about the bruises on his knees, raised his eyes and said anxiously, "Emperor..."

"Cough cough."

Wan Tengqian was dressed in a brocade robe with blue and purple python patterns, his long crow-blue hair was casually crowned, and half of his face was covered with a mask delicately wound and carved with silver silk.

Wei Xingzhi's expression froze, and Fu Lianzi staggered up and sat him on the bed. When he saw the mask on Wan Chengqian's face, he understood.

The emperor's coming to Jizhou was kept from everyone.

Wei Xingzhi suppressed the doubts in his heart, "Lianzi, my head is a bit messed up, you go to Doctor Li and ask him if he has any refreshing medicine."

Fu Lianzi glanced at Wan Chengqian, feeling suspicious, but didn't say much.

After there was no one in the room, Wei Xingzhi supported the bed and wanted to stand up and salute, "I see Your Majesty..."

Wan Chengqian frowned slightly, took two steps closer to hold its arm, and stopped her movement.

"You are still seriously injured, and you are seriously ill again, so you don't need to be more polite to me."

When that warm palm fell on his arm, everything before the coma was like a switch being turned on, and all of them were displayed in his mind.

she seems to be...

Kneeling in front of the emperor, weeping with snot and tears, and even got the snot on the emperor?

Wan Qiqian looked at her changing expression, and felt amused in his heart, "Get up and lie down, don't turn around and say that I bullied you, crying pear blossoms with rain."

Wei Xingzhi's face turned red, "I must have burnt out my brain at that time, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"It's okay." Wan Chengqian found a chair and sat down with his robe lifted. "These days, you should take a good rest and don't get sick."

Wei Xingzhi heard the faint worry in his tone, and there was a flash of surprise in his heart, "The emperor concealed his identity and came to Jizhou. Aren't you afraid of leaking traces and being used by someone with a heart?"

"It's okay." Wan Qiqian picked up the teacup on the table with a calm expression, "Drink the medicinal porridge."

Wei Xingzhi glanced at the porridge that had been drying on the low table for a while, his Adam's apple rolled up and down, his face froze suddenly, and he lay on the side of the bed and retched.

Wan Tuqian held the untouched warm tea and handed it to her lips, "This tea is warm in nature and won't hurt your stomach."

With a pale face, Wei Xingzhi took the celadon white cup, and the fragrance of Mingqian tribute tea lingered in his nose instantly.

It is impossible for a place like Jizhou to have such mellow tea, it should be brought from the imperial city, tsk, the little emperor is really pampered.

She took a sip, and the nausea in her stomach did dissipate a lot.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wan Qiqian looked down at her side face, and then looked back after being distracted for a moment, "If you can't eat these things, I won't eat them. I brought the royal chef in the palace. What do you want to eat, tell Xia Feng, and someone will give it to you." You do it."

"Sweet and sour pork tenderloin, boiled pork slices, pork rib soup...the imperial chef is well-informed and can cook for you."

Wei Xingzhi paused slightly while holding the cup, her pupils dilated in circles, and she pursed her thin lips. These dishes are all her favorites, and they are also her mother's specialty dishes.

How does the emperor know?

"You were sick and confused yesterday, and I happened to overhear you talking in your sleep." Wan Qiqian explained her doubts.

Wei Xingzhi grabbed the quilt with one hand and the teacup with the other, tugged at the corners of his stiff mouth, lowered his head slightly, trying to hide his inner embarrassment.

In this world, how many extremely human ministers can have such a big face?Let the emperor hear him talking in his sleep, remember it?In this world, she might be the only one, Wei Xingzhi, right?

Fragmentary footsteps came from outside the door, and the expression on Wan Tuqian's face instantly subsided.

The wooden door was pushed open, and Qin Changbai and the others hurried over, probably because they heard Fu Lianzi say that Wei Xingzhi had woken up.

"Azhi, Azhi..." Zhou Han leaned forward, looked Wei Xingzhi up and down, grabbed her arm and stretched it, touched her forehead that had subsided, and thankfully heaved a sigh of relief.

"Finally woke up. This Jizhou is really not a good place. How long have you been here? Either a catastrophe or a serious illness." He muttered dissatisfied.

Wan Tuqian narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, stepped back a few steps, and remained silent.

If he guessed correctly, Ma Huai had already told him his identity, right?Knowing who he is, it's interesting to dare to be so bold in front of his face.

Wei Xingzhi glanced sideways at Wan Chengqian from the corner of his eye, covered his lips and coughed softly, "It's a great honor to benefit the people."

The implication is that you should say a few words less.

"I'm sorry, everyone. I'm fine. The matter in Jizhou is not over yet. We still need to do our best."

As if thinking of something, Wei Xingzhi's pale face suddenly sank, "How is the funeral of Chengguan Village handled?"

Everyone's expressions hesitated for a moment.

Wei Xingzhi frowned, "Did something happen again?"

Zhou Han laughed a few times, grabbed Wei Xingzhi's arm and said, "Everything is going according to plan, and there is nothing wrong. Chengguan Village has been burned. Including the bodies burned before, there are a total of 560 people... There are no patients infected with the epidemic in other villages."

Wei Xingzhi turned his eyes away from Zhou Han's face, and turned to Ma Huai who kept his head down and kept silent.

Ma Huai was the worst at lying, once he said something against his will, he would hold his hands and pursed his lips, not daring to look up.

"Ah Huai?"

Ma Huai pursed his lips, clasped his hands tightly in his sleeves, his eyes were erratic, and he said hesitantly, "Ah Zhi...it's really nothing. When we came, the affairs of Chengguan Village had been handled quite well. , you don’t have to worry about it anymore, just take good care of your body, don’t let grandpa and grandma worry..."

"Even you are keeping it from me?" Wei Xingzhi's heart was full of depression, and he was short of breath for a while, a mouthful of blood overflowed from his throat, "Forget it, I will go and see for myself."

Wan Chengqian took two steps closer, pressed her back on the bed, and lowered his voice a few degrees, "It's nothing serious, it's just that the burning of the village caused criticism."

Zhou Han and Ma Huai all set their sights on Wan Tuqian.

For such a serious matter, he summed it up in an understatement?

Now several villages near Chengguan Village have rioted. Because of Wei Xingzhi's order to burn the village, everyone has become indiscriminate. They even forgot that Wei Xingzhi saved their lives.

Just because a village was burned, those people seemed to be blinded by someone's instigation, and they wished to publicize Wei Xingzhi's sin of more than 1000 lives all day long.

Even in just one day, the momentum has grown, and it has aroused public anger in many places in Jizhou.

If Jin Wei and Cao Chengmo's soldiers hadn't been suppressing the lobbying, those people might have rushed into the Ganqi government office, skinned Wei Xingzhi and made atonement for those who died.
