The prime minister looked at Jiang Jingran, his eyes gradually getting cold.
"You bastard! Your Majesty makes your own decision about who the Crown Prince is. It's not your turn to point fingers and make irresponsible remarks!"
"I'm warning you, I, Jiang Huguo, will only be loyal to Your Majesty in this life, and will never engage in cliques for personal gain! Don't mention such words again in the future!"
Jiang Jingran didn't take the Prime Minister's words seriously at all. She stared and continued to argue with the Prime Minister.
"Father, you are really old and confused. Your Majesty will die one day. Your Majesty, he will ascend to the throne sooner or later. What is the difference between your loyalty to him now and your loyalty to him in the future?!"
"You, you! You bastard!"
The Prime Minister's eyes widened in disbelief, and he slapped Jiang Jingran hard in anger!
Jiang Jingran's face suddenly swelled up, and before she could recover, the Prime Minister's angry voice sounded again.
"You bastard, get out of here! I'll pretend I've never seen you today, and I've never heard those words before. If you dare to let me hear such treasonous words in the future, don't blame me for denying you as my daughter! !”
The prime minister pointed to the door and ordered Jiang Jingran to be kicked out.
His fingers were trembling and his chest was heaving violently. He was obviously very angry with Jiang Jingran.
Jiang Jingran covered his face and looked at the prime minister, his eyes full of coldness and resentment.
"Aren't you partial to Fu Yanci? Let me tell you the truth, neither he nor the prince will come back this time!!"
Jiang Jingran left these words viciously and ran out of the guest room with his face covered, leaving the Prime Minister alone in shock.
The prime minister had not recovered from what she had just said until Jiang Jingran's figure disappeared from his eyes.
The prince and the general who ruled the country never returned.
What's the meaning?
Could it be...
A bold guess emerged from the prime minister's mind, and just thinking about it made him feel chills.
…
Fu Yanci hurriedly drove for two days and two nights before finally arriving in Jiangnan. At this time, Jiangnan was already plagued by plague, and sick people could be seen everywhere paralyzing on the ground with faces of pain.
There were dozens of doctors walking among the people carrying medicine boxes, but the scale of the plague was so great that they alone could not handle it.
People fell down one after another, and Jiangnan soon became a mess.
When Fu Yanci arrived at the inn where the prince was, the prince was discussing countermeasures with several Jiangnan officials with a solemn face. When he saw Fu Yanci, a flash of shock flashed across the prince's face, and then he hurriedly walked towards him. .
"How did you come?"
The prince approached Fu Yanci and yelled in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "This is not the place you should be, go back!"
After the prince came to Jiangnan, he kept in touch with Fu Yanci. The reason why he told Fu Yanci about the outbreak of plague in Jiangnan was because he wanted him to advise the emperor when he went to court and send people to rescue the people in Jiangnan as soon as possible. .
But he never expected that Fu Yanci would come in person. It had only been two days since he sent the message to Kyoto. You can imagine how anxious Fu Yanci was all the way.
"Wherever Your Highness is, I will be there. I swear to protect Your Highness to the death."
Although Fu Yanci looked calm, his words were extremely firm.
"Yan Ci, listen to Gu and go back!"
The prince held Fu Yanci's arm tightly, his voice full of warning.
"Your Highness, the plague is rampant outside. If this continues, the casualties will become more serious. Now the top priority is to find the source of the disease."
Fu Yanci did not mention anything about returning to Beijing, and he had obviously decided to wade into this muddy water.
The prince looked at him deeply and showed Fu Yanci's weakness.
"Yanci, your grandmother, mother, wife and unborn child are all waiting for you. Listen to Gu Yu's advice and go back. This matter has nothing to do with you."
Although they were all going to Jiangnan, the meaning of being sent by the emperor was different from coming by themselves.
Fu Yanci left Beijing on his own and went to Jiangnan. If the plague in Jiangnan really got out of control, Fu Yanci would not be able to escape unscathed as long as someone impeached him.
The prince thought that by showing Fu Yanci's weakness, he would be able to retreat, but in the end he underestimated Fu Yanci's sincere loyalty.
"The Queen, the Fifth Prince, the Crown Princess and the fetus are also waiting for His Highness to return."
After Fu Yanci left these words, he broke free from the prince's hand and walked straight towards the officials.
The prince clenched his fists, and the complexity in his eyes was replaced by endless coldness.
If he and Yanci could return to Kyoto safe and sound, he would definitely not let that person go so easily even if he angered his father!
Everyone was very curious about Fu Yanci's identity, but seeing his noble temperament, they didn't dare to ask rashly.
"This is the general of Zhenguo."
The prince introduced.
He originally wanted to drive Fu Yanci away because he didn't introduce Fu Yanci's identity to everyone at the beginning. Now that Fu Yanci insisted on staying, the prince had nothing to hide.
Everyone was shocked.
General Zhenguo, isn't that...the patron saint of their Beiming Kingdom? !
"I see you, General!"
Everyone's emotions suddenly became excited. The moment they learned Fu Yanci's identity, they felt inexplicably calmer.
Fu Yanci joined their discussion. The last few people planned to divide their troops into three groups. One group would find the source of the disease, one group would resettle the people who were not sick, and the remaining group would cooperate with the doctor's command to treat the people. .
After the division of labor was done, everyone began to take action.
Five days later.
Jiang Jingyu chased after him slowly and finally arrived in Jiangnan.
Fortunately, there are various pills in the system mall that can replenish her strength and relieve her discomfort, otherwise her body would have been too much to bear after all this journey.
Since the plague broke out in Jiangnan, others have avoided Jiangnan, and carriages rarely appear on the streets of Jiangnan.
The carriage of the General's Mansion quickly attracted the attention of the guards, who trotted to the carriage.
"Who is in the car? Please leave quickly during this special period!"
The driver directly reported his family name: "We are from the General's Mansion. The person sitting in the carriage is the General's wife. Please give me directions. Where is the General now?"
Hearing that the general's wife was sitting in the carriage, the guard's attitude instantly became respectful: "General, he is looking for the source of the disease ahead. I will take you there right now!"
"Thank you, brother!"
On the other side, in front of Baijiajing.
"General, this place is connected to the Huan River. Most of the water that the people drink comes from this well."
Fu Yanci nodded slightly: "Fetch a bucket of water and let the doctor check it. Seal the well until the results are found."
"yes!"
After Fu Yanci finished his instructions, he was about to head towards the next well when the sound of horse hooves came, followed by a familiar voice from behind.
"Inkstone."
