Doting on the Supreme Mad Concubine

Chapter 128 The Plague of Cao City (2)
He always vaguely felt that what the Black Ice Pavilion discovered was related to the epidemic.

This is not the time for Gentle to interject, just sitting quietly at the side, although Leng Che didn't need to serve tea, but then someone brought the brewed tea, and the person who brought the tea was a pawnshop clerk, who looked at it gently With a glance at him, he saw that his brows and eyes were more than calm, he didn't look like a boy at all, and he must be one of these people.

However, Ruan couldn't figure out what kind of organization these people were, how they would obey Leng Che, and how those skilled hidden guards would obey his orders?He was hiding the truth, but she didn't expect that he not only had a brilliant mind, but also held these unexpected powers in his hands.

Leng Che's question made Sanjiu look at Wen Rou with scruples, Leng Che just said indifferently: "Let's talk, there are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be scruples."

"Yes!" Sanjiu replied respectfully, and then said slowly, "At sunset two days ago, Liu Zero and I went to the western outskirts of the city to collect the goods. When we entered the city, we found a farmer pushing a cart and talking and behaving strangely. Strange, it stands to reason that some peasant households would rush to their homes outside the city, and if they wanted to enter the city, they would enter the city before dawn, and this peasant household said that he wanted to go to the city to deliver dry firewood to a certain family, and the city defense allowed him Entering the city, Liu Zero and I followed quietly."

"However, the farmer didn't go to the house he mentioned, but went to the backyard of an inn. Sixty and I felt strange. I was watching at the back door, and Sixty went in from the inn to investigate."

"When it was almost midnight, I saw the farmer changed into night clothes, covered his mouth and nose, put on cloth covers on his hands, and carried a black cloth bag on his back. With a careful look, he leaned carefully towards the well in the west of the city. I went, and wanted to throw the black cloth bag on my back, Liu Zero immediately stopped me, and when the man saw me waiting, he immediately ran away and wanted to chase, but the man was so fast that he couldn't catch up."

"What's in that black cloth bag?" Rourou put down the teacup in her hand, and interjected a question with a gloomy face.

"Return to madam, it's a dead body." Sanjiu also answered respectfully to the gentle question, the person who can make the master rest assured to let him stay by his side is definitely not an ordinary person, judging by the appearance, it should be the master's wife undoubtedly.

"Is the corpse rotten?" Ruan Rou didn't have the heart to appreciate Sanjiu's observation ability at this time, what she cared about was the dead body, "How did you deal with that dead body? But Liu Zero took care of it?"

"Return to Madam, the neck and armpits of the corpse are rotten. The corpse was indeed disposed of by Liu Zero and thrown into a mass grave outside the city." Sanjiu was surprised by the gentle question. How could she know that the corpse was dead? It's rotten, and it's still [-] to deal with it.

"Oops." The gentle expression suddenly became serious, and Leng Che's face was suddenly as cold as frost.

"Apart from this matter, what else is there to say?" Leng Che's tone was so cold that it seemed to be able to chill people to death. If Liu Ling came to the imperial capital in person, he must not only talk about this matter.

"Returning to the Lord, on the same day and night, the doctors in the city were killed one after another, and the medicine shop was burned down together. I don't know why this happened, and I don't know how to deal with it. Go report to the Lord." Sanjiu paused, then continued, "On the second day, floating corpses were found in three wells in the city, with the same symptoms as the one disposed of by Liu Zero, and they were also thrown into mass graves. "

"Can you find out who did it?"

"Return to the Lord, I haven't found it yet."

"How many doctors are still alive in the city?" Spreading the disease and killing the doctors is really going to turn Caocheng into a dead city!
A bloodthirsty murderous intent suddenly flashed in the cold eyes.

"There are no well-known doctors in Caocheng, only some mediocre little doctors left, but even though the doctors are alive, all the medicine shops in the city have been destroyed. In Caocheng today, there is not a single medicinal herb to be found." Sanjiu gritted his teeth. After finishing speaking, Fu knelt down on one knee again, "The subordinates failed to protect the doctors in the city. They are really guilty. Please punish the Lord!"

"Now is not the time for you to wait to bear the blame, and this matter is not your fault. Since such a major event has happened in Caocheng, how can the city remain calm as usual?"

"Master Liu of the government tried his best to appease the people's hearts. He said that he immediately reported the matter to the imperial court, saying that he would immediately find a new doctor for Caocheng. He also mobilized everyone in the government to buy medicinal herbs in other cities. He is also investigating who did it. It made the people feel at ease."

"Master Liu reported this matter to the imperial court?" Leng Che narrowed his eyes slightly.

Rourou immediately smelled a dangerous smell, and in order to prevent Leng Che from getting angry at this time, she immediately said: "My lord, can Rourou say a few words first?"

"Princess, please tell me." Leng Che naturally knew that this was not the time to be angry, and it was better for her who is knowledgeable in medical science to express her thoughts first.

"Sanjiu, please go and burn all the corpses in the mass grave immediately. Before you go, put realgar on your nose and wrap your mouth and nose with a towel." Gently and carefully, he took out a kit from his sleeve and handed it to him. Sanjiu, "Hang this kit on your chest. After the corpse is burned, sprinkle lime all over the place. Remember that the corpse must be burned, and covering with lime is essential."

"Subordinates obey!" Sanjiu took the kit, bowed to Wen Rou and Leng Che, and left in a big stride.

Rourou shifted her gaze to Leng Che, and found that Leng Che was staring at her.

"My lord, it seems that the disease has not yet broken out in Caocheng, it's probably still in the incubation period, and the man who wanted to throw the corpse into the well presumably wanted to pollute the water source. If the water source is contaminated, no one will be able to recover. Right now, I don't know if the water source is polluted, and it may be difficult just to deal with the corpses in the mass grave." Rou Rou said, frowning slightly, if the water source is clean, she still has a cure, if the water source is polluted , she was helpless.

"How do I know if the water source is polluted?"

"This gentleness has its own way. Fortunately, the luck is that it is winter, and the disease has not yet spread, and there is still a way to prevent it. However, the medicine shop in the whole city has been destroyed. It seems that someone really wants to turn Caocheng into a dead city. "What a vicious heart.

"If no one cooperates inside and outside, it will be extremely difficult for them to accomplish anything. They want to use the epidemic to destroy Caocheng, and we can use this matter to counter them. Maybe they will." Caocheng county magistrate, he wants him to regret what he has done everything.

The king's table has not received any urgent reports about Caocheng, and if there are urgent reports from various places, he will not be ignorant of the news of the hidden guards scattered everywhere. This proves that the county magistrate of Caocheng has not The fact that any rush note has been issued is enough to prove that the county magistrate of Caocheng is either a traitor or a person like the Queen Mother, and no matter what kind of person he is, he will undoubtedly die.

"What are your plans, my lord?"

"My lord!" Before Leng Che could answer the gentle words, a man dressed as ordinary people came to Leng Che with a tense expression, and clasped his fists and said, "I tell you, my lord, suddenly a large number of people in the city fell down! Seek medical attention but get nowhere!"
