In the night, only cicadas and birds could be heard outside the camp. Occasionally, one after another, there were howls, but after a while of abuse, they disappeared.

They sneaked out of the camp carrying a stretcher and went to the wild mountains.

Only the leader whispered: "you follow quickly, don't let people find out!"

"Yes, yes!" The two bodyguards discredited and carried the stretcher out of the camp, following Shen meng'an.

"My Lord, can you leave the body here?" One of the bodyguards saw that the place where the body was thrown was not far from the camp where they were stationed. He was a little worried.

"I'm not afraid. When it comes to night, wild dogs often come and go. Maybe tomorrow morning it will be gone." Shen meng'an then looked around for a while, and then whispered: "no one can tell what happened tonight, otherwise --"

"Yes, the little ones all understand!" The two guards nodded frequently.

Seeing this, Shen meng'an took out two ingots of silver from the brocade bag and handed them to them: "hurry back!"

The two men hold the heavy silver ingot, put it into their arms, look at each other, salute Shen meng'an, and immediately run back.

Shen meng'an looked at the dead body on the ground again, murmured in a low voice, and then went back.

At night, the wind whistled. From time to time, a howl came from outside. When there was no sound, Shen meng'an fell asleep at ease.

The next day, early in the morning.

Unfortunate things happened one after another.

"To the prince, the big deal is not good!" Too doctor flustered ran in from the outside, will still be using the breakfast Ji such as fan startled.

"Why are you so unruly?" The bodyguard standing on one side yelled.

The doctor immediately knelt to one side trembling with fear.

Ji rufan saw this, put down the spoon in his hand, wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief, asked: "what's the matter, so panic?"

"Back, back prince, it's the victims, he, they!" The doctor was too nervous to say a complete word.

"What happened to the victims?" Ji rufan asked with a frown.

"Several more victims died last night!" Taiyi takes a deep breath into the airway.

"What, such a thing?" Ji rufan quickly gets up and goes to check, but is stopped by the doctor kneeling on the ground.

"Prince, you can't go there!"

"You let go. If something so big happened, how could the prince not go and have a look, or how could he explain it to his father?" It was just a coincidence that one died yesterday, but now another died. How could he hide it from the court.

"Prince, after listening to what Wei Chen has said, those victims are not poisoned, but have a plague. If you go now, I'm afraid they will be infected!" Taiyi holds Ji rufan's foot tightly and doesn't let him leave the camp.

Ji rufan took back her feet and looked down at the doctor kneeling on the ground. Her face was full of disbelief: "what you said is true? Those victims were not poisoned at all, but got the plague? "

"I dare not tell you a lie. Those victims are suffering from the plague now. Prince, in order to ensure your safety, they will return to Beijing as soon as possible!" The doctor bowed his head and risked his life.

Ji rufan only has the word "pestilence" in his mind. What's more, his father trusted him when he asked him to go back to the palace. If he left now, he would be disappointed.

"The prince will never return to the palace!" Ji rufan tossed his sleeve and sat back. He said in a deep voice, "you should find the antidote quickly, be sure to be quick!"

"Yes, I will go now!" After hearing the order, the Taiyi immediately set out for the camp.
