Qi Ren also ran out of the side room and stood with his mother, glaring at Wang Yun with confusion and confusion at the same time.
This kind old man always brings a lot of candy to Qi Qing'er every time he comes. Their family of three is not living a satisfactory life, and they are not wealthy. Things like candy are still very expensive in Daqi, and their family does not ask for extravagant money on weekdays. Can eat it.
However, my mother's reaction today was a bit off.
After Concubine Xia had cried enough, Wang Yun smiled and said, "I don't know why I made Qing'er spit out the candy I brought."
Concubine Xia frowned and looked at Wang Yun, Qi Qing'er who was crying and Qi Ren who looked confused, then she calmed down a little and said, "I bet you all know, did someone guess wrong?"
Concubine Xia obviously meant something. Wang Yun nodded and said, "What kind of person is your emperor? I am the Emperor of Qi. My reputation for being the most benevolent and benevolent has spread far and wide. Concubine Xian is wrong."
Concubine Xia just wiped away two lines of clear tears. The Emperor of Da Qi acted in a way that ordinary people could not understand, but his kindness to the people around him has not changed since he ascended the throne.
"You two, stop being awkward and go play." Wang Yun happily drove away Qi Ren and Qi Qing'er.
Wang Yun said: "I would like to ask Concubine Xia to inform you. Your Majesty has asked me to inform Concubine Xian about the war in Daxia. I would like Concubine Xia to think clearly about how to handle yourself in the future."
"Please take care of me, Wang Duzhi." Concubine Xia took out a ten thousand silver dollar note and handed it to Wang Yun.
This money guide was given to Huang Sushou by the Wei family. Huang Sushou felt that the money was hot, so he handed it to the palace. The emperor rewarded it and gave it to Concubine Xia. Wang Yun stared at the yellow money guide and asked helplessly: "Concubine Xia, this money was given to you by the emperor. Hasn't it been touched?"
Concubine Xia nodded and said: "This is the money of the Wei family. Huang Sushou is very hot to touch, and I also feel it is a bit hot to touch. However, I dare not resist the decree given by the emperor, so I kept it until now. I didn't expect it to be used."
Wang Yun held the money in his hand and looked at Qi Qing'er and Qi Ren running around in the yard. Concubine Xia's life here was very hard. It was really not easy for her to keep this money worth tens of thousands of dollars.
"I will talk to the emperor." Wang Yun picked up the money and was about to leave, but Concubine Xia took out another wad of money and said, "Weidu knows, this is hard-earned money."
Wang Yun looked at the scattered money and felt a little helpless. This pile of money, in total, only amounted to more than 300 silver dollars. It seemed that he had saved it every month.
"So, you took this money to lure me? It's not that I think you are greedy for money, you are greedy for money too much! During the Chinese New Year, Concubine Xia just tore a few feet of cloth to make new clothes for her two children, and she couldn't bear to change her own clothes. , the money you charge is outrageous." Qi Xingyun listened to Wang Yun's narration and asked with curled lips.
Wang Yun stretched out his hands and waved them hurriedly and said: "It's unfair, Your Majesty, how dare I accept this money? Isn't it bad if the head grows on the neck? I have to be found in a high case on Yujie. A different place?"
The master is the master and the servant is the servant, especially the eunuchs.
No matter how you say it, Concubine Xia is still a concubine officially canonized by Da Qi. She is not a concubine with a rank like Zhaoyi. If you accept this money, your life span will really be shortened.
"That's pretty much it." Qi Xingyun nodded and said, "Let the censors come in. Zhang Ge will come to discuss matters later."
"What happened in Ezhou?" Wang Yun made tea for the emperor. He suddenly thought of Li Yunwu's death. He got a small tea cup and took a sip. After the tea was slightly warm, he put the tea on the imperial table. .
Qi Xingyun nodded, his face heavy.
"Your Majesty is kind and compassionate to the people, but you can't get too anxious. Take your time on this matter." Wang Yuntan said with some worry.
General Luo Fengtang's good news did not make the emperor happy. One can imagine how bad the incident in Ezhou was.
After a while, Zhang Tingyu brought Tang Jinghui, the minister of household affairs, Wang Yi, Zuocheng of Shangshu, and the minister of punishment to Wende Hall.
Qi Xingyun asked Zhang Tingyu and others to waive the common etiquette and said: "There was a civil uprising in Tanzhou before, and the Wuchao Lake navy went to suppress the rebellion. When they got to the ground, they realized that the rebels had dispersed long ago."
"Tanzhou can still be said to have been invaded. The news cannot be spread, so I can't bear it."
"But what about the Ezhou magistrate? He kept it secret for a long time and revealed a huge disaster!"
Qi Xingyun's words were so serious that Zhang Tingyu and others did not dare to raise their heads. Such bad official habits caused civil servants to lose points in the emperor's heart again.
Qi Xingyun patted the table and asked Zhang Tingyu: "Mr. Zhang Ge, you always say that I favor the soldiers. Last time, I listened to you about the incident in Qianzhou and Fangyang Black Earth District."
"There is a plague in Qianzhou and a plague in Ezhou. Why didn't the plague in Qianzhou spread widely, but the plague in Ezhou happened? If Shaoqing hadn't gotten the letter and personally wrote the letter to me, what would Ezhou be hiding? When? Did you hide it until the plague spread to the capital?!"
Liu Yu wrote the poem because of the plague caused by floods in the south of the Yangtze River.
Floods will be followed by plagues.
When Qi Xingyun hurried back to the capital from Qianzhou, he was afraid that something would happen, but in the end, a big mess happened.
Wuchaohu Road and Jiangnan Road, which had been plagued by floods, were once again infested by the plague, fearing that even autumn plowing would be delayed.
At the same time, the plague also broke out in the newly recovered Liaodong County. After military disasters, various infectious diseases were often harvested, but under the forced military control of Jiang Wulang and other soldiers, the plague was even controlled in Liaodong County.
But Ezhou was in a state of turmoil and people were in panic.
Qi Xingyun will never forget when he read that after Fei Xingwei dug out the mouth of the river, hundreds of thousands of people drowned, and the subsequent plague killed nearly two million people in Qi.
This is Daqi. Once the plague breaks out and refugees flee everywhere, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Your Majesty, would you like to invite Mr. Liu Lingguan?" Tang Jinghui said as he stepped out of the queue.
"Where is Liu Lingguan?" Qi Xingyun asked, staring at Tang Jinghui.
Tang Jinghui looked at the emperor's uncertain expression and said quickly: "Liu Lingguan and Dr. Liu Yu come from the same hospital. They are far away but very close. He is now affiliated with the Royal Hospital."
"When I received the news about the plague in Ezhou, I immediately inquired about Liu Lingguan's reputation in Hedong and Hebei Provinces. I happened to find out about his affiliation with the Imperial Hospital."
Tang Jinghui was afraid. He had always felt a chill on the back of his neck recently. It was thanks to the kindness of his emperor, and it was a troubled time. The emperor was very busy, otherwise he would have moved his head long ago.
Tang Jinghui knew that by asking the emperor to adopt Qi Lanxiong, he was actually participating in the seizure of the legitimate son, which was the most fearful thing for the emperor.
"Chairman Xuan Liu!" Qi Xingyun said to Wang Yun.
The plague in Liaodong County is in the north. Since the military control of the newly recovered areas has not ended, the uniform responsibility is the soldiers. Moreover, because of the cooling, the cold wind in Liaodong County is earlier than in previous years.
Moreover, Liaodong County, which had just gone through the war, was in panic and should have continued to spread. However, the news from Jiang Wulang and countless Chazi showed that the plague in Liaodong County did not spread wantonly, but was within the control range. .
The plague in Ezhou and Tanzhou is in the south. It is a flood. Coupled with the plague and the refugees, this is now the top priority of the imperial court.
