Chapter 655 Plague (3)

"Very good!" Mu Jin'an patted Yu Gongxie on the shoulder and said, "I support you, work hard, and tell me what you need. My future depends on my uncle."

Yu Gongji's complexion was rosy, like a person: "Dare not dare."

night.

There was a burst of wailing in the temple.

"Oh, it hurts so much, it's so hot, it's so uncomfortable, why am I still alive?"

"Please, save me, or kill me."

Shuicheng County rushed over immediately after hearing the news. A large area has been infected, and the wailing of the people can be heard from a long distance away. Those people's faces were red, and they leaned against the wall weakly and wailed continuously.

One child even vomited while clutching his stomach. The ground was covered in blood, and he was about to vomit out his intestines.

The Lord of Shuicheng wiped away his tears, feeling pain in his heart. His youngest son also got the plague and was placed alone in a small room with only one doctor delivering food and medicine for him. It must be so uncomfortable.

"Where's the prince?"

The county magistrate walked over obediently and said: "The crown prince has sent a message that those who are already terminally ill will be executed on the spot!"

"What?!" The City Lord of Shuicheng's eyes trembled slightly, and he was executed on the spot? !Dissatisfied, "Could it be that the people in the city are all terminally ill, so they are all executed? Where is the prince now?"

"Sleep in the yard." The county magistrate sighed, with a look of despair on his face. If the prince is so ruthless, then the water city really only has a spring of water from the rainstorm.

The lord of Shuicheng pondered for a moment and asked, "Has the prince sent a message to the capital?"

"Passed." The county magistrate said from the side.

The lord of Shuicheng left here with an umbrella and went to a small house. He wrapped his cloak and felt a little cold, so he asked someone to light a torch. Looking at the torch's faint light when the rainstorm fell, he felt a little comfort in his heart. .

Picking up a pen, he wrote down the disaster in Shuicheng and the prince's actions on paper.

The county magistrate took this piece of paper, read the contents of the letter, was shocked, knelt on the ground with trembling hands and said: "City Lord, if you want to write like this, you are offending the crown prince!"

"No need to say much." Chengjun knew that the prince was not a good stump, he knew it all.

The county magistrate took courage and said, "Do you still remember Nanchengxuan in Chengjun?"

"Remember." Hearing this name, Shuicheng Chengjun felt a little turmoil in his heart, "I was honored to have spoken to him when I was appointed to Nanchengcheng County. He is an upright and kind official."

The county magistrate interrupted: "But he was charged with treason!"

"For the sake of the people and Shuicheng, I will die just like Master Nan!" Shuicheng Chengjun clenched his fists, his eyes were bloodshot, he hadn't closed his eyes for many nights, and it was only with the idea of ​​protecting the people that he held on.

The county magistrate saw that there was no one around, and the heavy rain covered his voice again, and said quietly: "Master Nan offended some people back then, think about who belonged to Hu Wu, Feng Tong and others at that time, and why did they end up like this? end"

There were two words of Chengjun held in his throat and he dared not spit them out. After finally recovering, he finally fixed the letter on the letter in the county magistrate's hand. Hearing the crackling sound of the torch in his ear, he said, "Send it! Send it out! "

Chengjun covered his forehead and said sadly: "County magistrate, you and I are both officials. Although you are timid, I know you are a good official. Others in Shuicheng only use it as a stepping stone for promotion. The people in Shuicheng are not treated as human beings, but this is your home, your people.

This official also knows that you are not a cowardly person who is afraid of death. If this official is unlucky, you will take the position of this city and county, and you must be down-to-earth for the people and the country! "
