My queen does not compete for favor

Chapter 165

Wan Qixiao stepped forward.The leading red-robed official turned his head, and that expressionless face was none other than Ning Shuoyun!

Wan Qixiao was shocked and angry when he found out the truth, and he had nowhere to vent his anger. At this moment, seeing Ning Shuoyun was even more unhappy.She stepped forward coldly, approached Ning Shuoyun and said, "Master Ning owes me an explanation!"

Ning Shuoyun's vicissitudes of face could not see what he was thinking.He looked at Wan Chengxiao numbly, pointed to the reclaimed tree stump beside him and said, "Sit."

Wan Chengxiao suppressed his anger, sat down with a cold face, and waited for his explanation.

Ning Shuoyun walked to a nearby tree stump and sat down, and said in an inaudible voice, "As your lord has seen, not only floods have occurred here, but also plagues have occurred."

plague!

plague!

plague!

Wan Qixiao's pupils dilated instantly, and the waves were turbulent.Even though he had already vaguely guessed it, but hearing him admit it at this moment, he was still shocked and panicked for a moment.

She couldn't help but panic.Plague, this is a disaster that cannot be easily overcome in modern times, let alone in ancient times when medical and sanitary conditions were extremely poor!In this era, a plague means the subversion and demise of a region or even a country!In history, there are not many incidents in which countries were wiped out due to plagues.In the history of this time and space, Xiang Yu established Chu after the Great Qin ruled the world 400 years ago. It was because of the outbreak of plague in Southern Qin that caused turmoil in the south of the Yangtze River. .

And now, here, in Beijiang Mansion, the most prosperous and prosperous place at the southern end of Great Qin, a plague broke out!
"Report to the imperial court immediately!" Wan Qixiao hurriedly stood up.

"No!" Ning Shuoyun shouted loudly and stood up excitedly. "Once this matter is reported to the imperial court, it will inevitably cause panic and turmoil across the country. At that time, my Daqin capital will be affected and suffer. This government has decided to suppress this matter. If it is to die, my Beijiang mansion will die. Panic across the country!"

Wan Qixiao was shocked, but he never thought that Ning Shuoyun had been concealing it for the sake of Daqin's stability.It takes a lot of courage and determination to die in the Beijiang Mansion, voluntarily bear the infamy of the world, and the crime of exterminating the nine clans!After Wan Qixiao pointed to Ning Shuoyun and only said "You...", he didn't know what to say.

Ning Shuoyun smiled wryly, then sat back helplessly, and sighed: "There is nothing else to do. What can we do if we report it to the court? Except for causing unnecessary panic and turmoil, it will not help at all. As for the plague, even the court, Just as helpless."

Wan Qixiao sat down in silence.In this era, in the face of the plague, human life is too slim.Expansion of the incident will only lead to large-scale panic and the population fleeing from their homes. However, the more the population moves, the more active the spread of the plague will be. At that time, it will not be this area, but the entire Great Qin that will suffer disaster.Therefore, Ning Shuoyun chose to close the city to destroy himself, and refused to let the plague crowd flow out.

But in this way, can it really be effectively contained?Furthermore, even if Beijiang Mansion can be paid to trap the plague, is it really necessary to pay so many innocent lives on this land?This is one of the most prosperous and prosperous cities in Daqin!How can you give in so easily and fall into destruction!

Wan Qixiao was not reconciled.

"Is there no way to cure it? What about the doctor? How do you say it? What kind of herbs are needed? Even if it can't be completely cured, there must be a way to alleviate it?" Wan Qixiao is not someone who is willing to admit defeat easily.Although the plague is severe, it is not insoluble.There is a saying in Yi Xue, yin and yang, gossip, and all things generate and restrain each other. Since the plague is caused by the silt and poison at the bottom of the river due to the flood, there must be something near the banks of the Huai River that can restrain and treat the plague.

Must have!

"Actually... there are." Ning Shuoyun's words made Wan Qixiao's eyes light up.He straightened his face and said very seriously: "Worship Bodhisattva!"

Wan Chengxiao almost jumped up and slapped him to death.

"No, this matter still has to be reported to the imperial court. At least the imperial court can send a large amount of relief medicinal materials to curb the spread of the plague." Wan Qixiao thought for a moment, then stood up and walked down the mountain.

"It's useless! The medicinal materials, the royal court's medicinal materials will be transported here at least two months later! Two months is enough for the Beijiang Mansion to die, and it is also enough for the huge Qin Dynasty to be overthrown and turbulent!"

Wan Qixiao stopped and turned back to taunt: "Would it be useful to worship Bodhisattvas? If you don't work hard, just pray to God and Buddha, no one can help you!" After saying this, Wan Qixiao went down the mountain without looking back .On the top of the mountain, Ning Shuoyun's big red python robe fluttered in the wind.Behind him was a piece of charred embers emitting a slight heat.

In the mansion, after Wan Qixiao finished writing the notes, he found a mountain eagle unique to each state capital for emergency communication, tied the note under the eagle's feet, and let the mountain eagle fly in the yard.

The mountain eagle flapped its wings and flew high into the sky, screaming several times and circling twice.

Just as he was about to spread his wings and fly away, suddenly a sharp arrow shot out, and the mountain eagle was pierced and fell down with a croak!
Wan Qixiao was shocked, turned his head to look, and saw Ning Shuoyun walking towards him with a bow and arrow not far away. "grown ups!"

"You! What's the meaning of this? Is Mr. Ning tired of working?" Wan Qixiao became murderous.This mountain eagle was the only one in the entire Beijiang Mansion, and it was used for emergency reporting, but it was actually shot down by Ning Shuoyun.He is still so stubborn!
"My lord!" Ning Shuoyun walked up quickly, bowed solemnly to Wan Qixiao, and said solemnly: "Have you ever thought about it, even if the imperial court sends herbs, whether these herbs can cure this plague is still a question." Unknown? The danger of turmoil during this period is too great, and no one can afford this responsibility! Instead of taking such a big risk to win such a small chance of winning, it is better to seize the existing chance of survival and worship the Bodhisattva devoutly!"

"I beg your size!" Wan Qixiao yelled angrily, "If you have the ability, you are dying of illness, and I beg Bodhisattva to show me your life!"

"There is such a case."

Wan Chengxiao choked for a moment: "Really?"

"Yes. This is the seventh person in Beijiang Mansion who worshiped the Bodhisattva to reduce his fever." Ning Shuoyun explained, "The symptoms of this epidemic are mainly high fever that does not subside, the whole body is weak and cold sweats, and in the later stage, the limbs convulse and the whole body suddenly becomes cold. Sudden fever until death. During this period, high fever has been accompanied by the onset of symptoms, which can be regarded as a sign of the epidemic. Therefore, as long as Beijiang Prefecture finds people with high fever, they will immediately arrest them and send them to the temple on the top of the mountain to worship Bodhisattva. Although most people still They died, but a few sporadic people miraculously recovered from their high fever, and all the symptoms of the disease disappeared."

"Is this really the case? Where is that person? Take me to see it!" Wan Qixiao couldn't wait to meet the man who escaped death.These few people must have unintentionally triggered some settlement conditions.She is not an ancient person, so she would not be so easily fooled. Her first reaction was to believe in some kind of god or Buddha.From her point of view, it was obvious that the antidote to the disease was inadvertently triggered by these few survivors.
