Chapter 371 Letters
Xirong, Xiacheng.

After experiencing the shock of the death of his son and wife, Qi Zhuanyu finally fell ill this spring.

Qi Zhuanyu made the eldest prince Qi Hongzong the prince, and temporarily made Xirong the supervisor of the country.

After Xirong suffered from drought for nearly two years, it was successively hit by locust plagues, plagues, and snow disasters.

Today, Xirong has long lost the strength it had when it invaded the Zhou Dynasty.In order for Xirong to recover quickly, Qi Hongzong did not care about face and sent people to Lingnan Bohai County and other places to learn local management methods.

Whether it was agricultural farming methods or advanced farm tools from Lingnan, they were all secretly passed back to Xirong.

In addition, they also tried their best to find medicine shops in Lingnan to buy medicinal materials to treat the plague.

As early as the Chinese New Year, Doctor Xue had already developed pills to treat the plague.

Although the plague in Lingnan, Bohai County and other places has been controlled.But in other places, people still contracted the plague from time to time due to exposure to infectious agents.

However, with the previous experience of large-scale cure of plague, everyone no longer talks about the plague.

Many people who need to go out to do business or find relatives will go to the pharmacy to buy a few bottles of pills to treat the plague before leaving.

There are even traders who specially buy pills and sell them in Xirong, Rouran and other places.In exchange for local horses, furs and other supplies, come back and trade.

For the sake of the local economy and humanitarian reasons, Jiang Tangtang did not restrict the export of pills.

Today, the pills in the pharmacy have become one of the most popular commodities in Lingnan.

Every day there is a long queue outside the pharmacy. As soon as the pills come out and all kinds of pills are displayed, they are almost sold out.

In addition to pills for treating plague, pills for reducing fever and replenishing blood were also sold very well.However, except for the pills to cure the plague, many other pills have restrictions.Some are only available to people with medical insurance, and some are restricted.

The most popular medicines sold by drug dealers are pills for treating plague.

Relying on the pills used by Lingnan Pharmacy to treat the plague, the plague in Xirong finally improved.

Qi Hongzong breathed a sigh of relief after hearing the report from his subordinates, and ordered his subordinates to continue purchasing medicine.

Only by controlling the plague can Xirong quickly restore its national strength.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to empty the national treasury to purchase medicine.

As he was talking, a guard suddenly came to report, "Your Highness, a man came outside, claiming to be a close aide of Emperor Zhou, saying that Emperor Zhou wrote a letter to the emperor before his death and wanted to hand it over to him. He brought the token, and it seems that he is indeed a close associate of the Emperor of Zhou. I have ordered people to control that person, would you like to see him, Your Highness?"

After speaking, he handed the token to the young eunuch beside Qi Hongzong and presented it to him.

Qi Hongzong frowned as he looked at the sent token, "The Emperor of Zhou has been dead for so long, why is the letter sent now?"

The guard said: "According to him, it was to avoid being pursued by the Lu family rebels, so he sent her late. His subordinates wanted to search his body, but he threatened that if he was rude to her, he would kill himself immediately. In this way, you will do it again I can’t see the letter either. He said that letter was very important.”

Qi Hongzong said: "Bring him here, I want to see him personally."

Soon, the confidant who claimed to be the Emperor of Zhou was sent up.Qi Hongzong squinted his eyes and looked at the man in front of him.

Not only was this man short, he was also extremely thin.Although there are a few large moles on his face, if you look closely, you can see that the other person has delicate eyebrows. If he didn't have those large moles, he should be a dignified person.

He guessed that the other party had changed his appearance and deliberately concealed his true appearance.

He instinctively disliked such a hidden person. "Where is the letter?" Xiao Qinyun said, "Your Highness just needs to follow me to a place and you can get it. But Your Highness must agree to one condition."

Qi Hongzong said: "How do I know this is not a trap?"

Xiao Qinyun and Qi Hongzong looked at each other, clearly showing displeasure in each other's eyes.She smiled and said, "Your Highness, can you give me a basin of water?"

Qi Hongzong raised his hand towards the palace servants waiting on the side. Soon, two eunuchs came over with water and washing utensils.

Xiao Qinyun took out the special potion on his body, applied it on his face, washed it with water, and then raised his hand to remove the hair bundle.

With her black hair hanging down, a woman with fair skin and delicate face appeared in front of Qi Hongzong.

She blinked at Qi Hongzong and said, "Your Highness, I am not a close associate of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty. I am his daughter, the fourteenth princess Xiao Qinyun. I have only one request. After getting the letter, you must marry me. The Crown Princess.”

Qi Hongzong sneered, "Don't say that the Great Zhou Dynasty has already died. Even if it is not dead, you, an unpopular princess, are not qualified to be my crown prince of Xirong."

Xiao Ye had countless women in his harem, and the more princes he gave birth to, the more princesses he would have.Even if the Zhou Dynasty survives, this kind of princess who ranks in the tenth rank will probably end up getting married.

How could he let a princess sit in such an important position as the Crown Princess?

Xiao Qinyun bit her lip tightly. She knew that Qi Hongzong was right.In fact, if she hadn't understood her status, she wouldn't have looked for another way out.

After weighing her current situation in her mind, she compromised: "Then I will be your concubine. Concubine is my final bottom line."

Qi Hongzong sneered: "You used a letter that I don't know whether it is useful to me, Xirong, in exchange for the position of my concubine. It's really a good calculation."

Xiao Qinyun's face looked a little ugly. Hidden under his sleeves, he pinched his palms tightly and said, "That letter is very important. If my father had not been killed, I would have nowhere to turn to and would not give the letter to you. You Xirong are getting a big deal."

Qi Hongzong stared at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "It's up to you! Where is the faith?"

It's just one more woman, and it's not like he can't afford it.

Xiao Qin slowly let go of her hands hidden under her sleeves, "Your Highness, please allow me to change my clothes."

Qi Hongzong raised his hand and asked the two palace men to take him down.After a while, two palace servants carefully sent a letter.

After reading the content of the letter, Qi Hongzong immediately went to find Xiao Qinyun.

Xiao Qinyun had just come out of the shower, and her hair was still dripping.Several palace maids were wiping her hair in the background.

Qi Hongzong raised his hand, waved away several palace maids, took out the letter and placed it in front of her and said, "Is the content in the letter true?"

"It's absolutely true!" Xiao Qinyun took the towel and wiped his hair.

Although she was not taken seriously in the palace in the past, she was born as a princess and had no shortage of food and clothing, and she was also served by servants.

But these few months of life have made her realize the hardships of the poor.

Even if she couldn't become the crown princess, she still had to become a very important person in Qi Hongzong's heart.

She looked at him and said: "Your Highness, now you know how important news I have brought you, right?"
