Thirty-one fields at the beginning

More and more people are infected with the disease.

Not only Huai'an Town, but also several surrounding small towns were gradually infected with the disease.

Finally, the county magistrate couldn't sit still.

This is not something he can decide, and he must report it immediately.

The county magistrate's note was handed over one level at a time, and finally appeared in the imperial study room of the palace.

"What do you think of me dearly?"

The man on the dragon throne has a stern expression and a sense of dignity.

A picture of a wise king.

But the courtiers only care about their majesty and do not like to listen to the sarcastic words of loyal ministers.

He even did ridiculous things.

In the court hall, he openly let his imperial concubine's body lie in his arms.

He didn't care at all about the civil and military officials in the hall.

Even some ministers couldn't see it and cursed angrily: "You enchanting concubine, don't confuse His Majesty."

His words of advice resounded throughout the court.

What awaited him was not His Majesty the Emperor's sudden awakening, but a coquettish complaint from Concubine Xu in His Majesty's arms.

"Your Majesty, I am not a demon concubine. This gentleman's words are very unpleasant."

"Okay, okay, you are my beloved concubine, you are not a demon concubine." After the emperor finished speaking, he looked at the man in the audience who dared to remonstrate just now and said: "Master Ge, I think you have been too leisurely recently.

Then you can guard the ancient Zhuo Pass for me."

"His Majesty!!!"

Mr. Ge's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

Where is Guzhuoguan?

That's a place where it snows all year round.

The people there are disobedient and mostly barbarians.

Only officials who have been abandoned by the court will be sent there.

He, Ge Yan, had been loyal to the court all his life, but he didn't expect that he could not resist the charming words of this enchanting concubine.

That's all, he can just leave.

At this point, there is one less loyal minister in the court who regards the people of the world as his duty.

Inside the royal study.

After the emperor on the dragon throne asked questions, no one said anything for a while.

"What, are you all mute?"

Seeing that all the ministers in the royal study did not speak, the emperor was really angry. They usually talked a lot, didn't they say it vigorously?

I was just thinking about scolding him.

The eunuch beside him leaned over and whispered: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xu is outside the royal study and said she was making a tonic soup for you."

"Let my concubine come in quickly."

The arrival of Concubine Xu brought some comfort to the emperor's agitated heart.

Concubine Xu, who was outside the imperial study, followed the eunuch beside the emperor and walked to him, "Your Majesty, why are you working so hard?"

"Aren't you just such mediocre people? I dare not answer even a single thing I said."

Concubine Xu poured out a bowl of soup, blew on it with a spoon, and then handed it over, intending to feed the emperor the soup in front of all the ministers.

The emperor enjoyed it very much.

The ministers in the room did not dare to look, and all nodded in private.

While feeding the emperor the tonic soup, he said: "Your Majesty, I am recommended by someone, but I don't know whether I should talk about it or not."

Before she came, she knew that there was an epidemic in a small town called Huai'an, and the paper had been delivered to the Imperial Study Room.

Presumably, courtiers will be dispatched to treat the epidemic in a few days.

How could she let go of such a good opportunity?

This is a good time to clear the way for her son.

Over the years, she has spent a lot of effort to eliminate the queen's mother clan from the court.

Most of the current courtiers support her son.

As for the rest, there is nothing to fear.

Now, there is only one last step left, which is the Ninth Prince born from the Queen.

As long as he is no longer a threat, the future throne will naturally be in her son's possession.

When the emperor heard what his beloved concubine said, he thought that there was something inappropriate to say. How dare these mediocre people say it?

"What's wrong with talking about it? My beloved concubine, just say whatever you want."

Concubine Xu put down the gold-rimmed porcelain bowl in her hand and said: "Your Majesty, controlling the epidemic is a major matter that benefits the country and the people, and it requires someone with a big responsibility to do it."

"Oh? Then according to what my concubine said, who is the person who takes on the great responsibility?"

When the emperor heard Concubine Xu's words, he was also interested.

"I think the Ninth Prince is the one to take on this important responsibility."

"Qi Yu? Qi Yu is only sixteen years old this year. The diseased place is too dangerous."

No matter how partial the emperor was, he still loved his and the queen's only child.

So Zhou Qiyu has been a thorn in Concubine Xu's heart for so many years.

Why does her son still have such an important position in the emperor's heart even though the woman has been dead for so many years?

Thinking of this, Concubine Xu couldn't help but look a little crazy.

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask Qi Yu about his wishes?"

Concubine Xu knew that any more words of persuasion would offend the man in front of her, so she had to let Zhou Qiyu make his own decision.

However, she was confident that Zhou Qiyu would be willing to treat the epidemic.

Soon the Ninth Prince was summoned.

At this time, there were no ministers in the royal study room.

It was the emperor who made them an eyesore and told them to get out of their own way.

Zhou Qiyu was outside the imperial study, quietly waiting for the announcement.

But after the eunuch who passed the message went in for a long time, the sound of a woman's charming laughter kept coming from inside.

After an unknown amount of time, the charming laughter of the woman inside stopped.

The eunuch next to the emperor came out and said to him: "Your Majesty, please come in."

Zhou Qiyu entered in response.

In the imperial study, the emperor sat on the dragon chair, and Concubine Xu sat on the side chair.

He took one look and then stopped looking.

Kneel down and salute.

"My son, please see my father and the noble concubine."

"Get up."

The emperor above had a calm expression, and there was no hint of the eroticism just now.

"Thank you, Father."

Zhou Qiyu didn't speak after he got up.

The emperor hated to see him like this.

Since the Queen left, he seemed to have lost his ability to speak and did not say another word to her.

Every time I think of the emperor, I feel depressed.

If he hadn't thought about it, he was the only one he and the queen had.

I had already asked him about his guilt.

"Qi Yu, I asked you to come here this time because I want to ask you, are you willing to go to that epidemic place to cure the epidemic?"

Cure the epidemic?
