Chapter 306 Plague
boom!
The story of Chu Wanyu angrily confronting Chu Qinglian at the gate of Prince Zhan's mansion spread like wildfire.
When the Queen Mother learned of this, she slammed her Buddhist beads onto the table. "How can this be? My mother died young and was uneducated, yet she dares to be so rude to her own father!"
The nanny beside her was startled and quickly stepped forward to calm the Queen Mother down, "Queen Mother, please take care of yourself. This is not worth your anger!"
"Hey!"
The Queen Mother sighed, "I don't want to care about it either, but I have no choice. This is also for the sake of Prince Zhan's palace!"
In the court, everything seemed calm on the surface.
In fact, Xiao Lijing and the emperor have reached the point where they are incompatible.
If Chu Wanyu can't stay in her place, be Xiao Lijing's good wife, and comfort Xiao Lijing, then...
Murderous intent flashed in her eyes. "I heard there was a plague in the suburbs of Beijing recently?"
The nanny was startled and nodded, "Indeed! Fortunately, there are not many people, and the Jingzhao Yin has already sent people!"
"Alright! Princess Zhan is known as a miracle doctor by the people, and she should go treat the plague on behalf of the royal family! Go to the imperial study and inform the emperor of my intentions!"
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the nanny quickly left the Cining Palace.
Royal study room.
The plague was eradicated in the suburbs of Beijing, and people in the capital were in a panic.
The emperor looked at the memorial with a dignified expression, "Well, these officials, who eat the emperor's salary and share the emperor's worries, all retreat at the critical moment!"
None of the civil and military officials volunteered.
He threw the memorial to the ground.
The eunuch beside him whispered, "The Empress Dowager has sent someone!"
The emperor waved his hand.
A moment later, a nanny quietly walked in. "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother knows you are worried about the plague in the suburbs of Beijing. The Queen Mother said that Princess Zhan is a folk healer and can represent the royal family!"
The emperor's eyes lit up, "It's still my mother who's thinking of me! Come, announce the decree."
……
Fighting against the Prince's Mansion.
Chu Wanyu looked at the imperial edict in her hand, her mind full of questions.
Xiao Lijing, who was standing by, said with a stern expression, "You don't have to leave this matter to me."
Xiao Lijing was about to enter the palace when Chu Wanyu grabbed his arm and shook her head, "Opportunities and dangers go hand in hand. I'm a miracle doctor!"
She patted her chest confidently and said, "Don't worry, leave this kind of thing to me, there will be no accidents!"
"But……"
"Eat the emperor's salary, share the emperor's worries! Even if I don't work for His Majesty, I must consider the people of the world!"
Chu Wanyu had heard a little about the plague outside the city.
These past few days, I had been thinking about going there in person, but now I'm sleepy and I have a pillow.
If you go there on the emperor's orders, you will surely make great contributions in the future.
However, you can't go alone.
She immediately made arrangements and ordered her subordinates to prepare enough medicinal herbs and food.
At the same time, the greenhouse for growing medicinal herbs was handed over to Luo Wuxia.
After explaining everything, Chu Wanyu set off in a mighty manner with enough supplies and secret guards.
Suburbs of Beijing!
The cold wind is biting.
People infected with the plague were isolated in the village.
As they watched their loved ones pass away one after another, they looked despair-filled and felt indignant.
"These corrupt officials, the imperial court clearly allocated money for us to buy herbs, but they ended up pocketing the money themselves and are actually trying to starve us to death!"
"That's right, none of the officials are good people! They are blocking the entrance to the village and won't let us go out. This is clearly a seal off of the village. They will wait until we are all dead and then burn it down!"
The villagers were extremely indignant.
But my words are not taken seriously.
They kept cursing the officials and the court, but their voices could not be heard at all.
As he cursed, his voice became lower and lower, turning into a low cry.
After Chu Wanyu arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, she heard the crying sounds all over the sky and her body trembled involuntarily.
"What's going on!" She dismounted, her ears pricked up. "This sound is kind of seeping in!"
Xia Lu, who had been in charge of exploring the path ahead, returned with a serious expression, "Princess, things are more complicated than we thought..."
Chu Wanyu's expression changed and she listened attentively.
Upon learning that the money allocated by the court had been embezzled by corrupt officials, her eyes suddenly turned cold, "How dare you! Then this princess will go and get the money back!"
He jumped on the horse and galloped away.
Chu Wanyu brought her men to the government office in a mighty procession. Without any nonsense, she directly ordered her men to arrest the corrupt officials and at the same time took out the silver to buy herbs.
"I am an official appointed by the court. Even if you are Princess Zhan, I have no right to punish court officials!"
Listen to the yelling in your ears.
Chu Wanyu was impatient and kicked the man over. "Listen carefully, this princess is not punishing you, she is just arresting you! This princess will take the silver first!"
She took two steps, filled with grief and indignation, and turned back to kick again, "Human lives are at stake, yet you dare to embezzle? Damn it!"
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out.
The court official's eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Chu Wanyu brought enough herbs and food and came to the village outside Beijing again.
"They're here! Someone's here to save us! I saw so many carriages! We're saved! We're saved! The court has finally remembered us!"
