Xianghua Palace.
Cuizhu handed over the jade piece: "Miss, this is the latest news from the master."
Shen Zhining took it, injected her spiritual consciousness, and extracted the information inside. She raised the corner of her mouth and put the jade piece on the table: "My foster father is anxious, urging me to confirm His Majesty's strength. "
"Miss," Cuizhu stepped forward, "people in the palace said that His Majesty has not returned to the palace for several days. It is said that he is taking Director Tang to deal with things outside."
"The foster father dispersed the god of plague privately. He is the emperor, so he naturally wants to save the people." Shen Zhining yawned, "Cuizhu, tell me, what do you think of your majesty?"
Cuizhu was stunned for a moment: "Miss, this servant doesn't understand this adult matter.
However, the servant heard that there has never been a woman around His Majesty. It was during the unification war that Long Gen was injured. "
Shen Zhining rubbed her eyebrows: "I'm not asking for your opinion in this regard."
"Ah," Cuizhu gritted his teeth, "I don't know the rest."
Shen Zhining glanced at her: "You don't know, His Majesty set up the National Medical Center and manufactured drugs like penicillin."
"This slave knows," Cuizhu patted his chest, "It is said that it has caused quite a stir among the people in the capital. There are some difficult-to-treat diseases. I didn't expect that penicillin can treat them.
Miss, actually it's not a big deal. A disease of that level, let alone Miss, is just a matter of breath for Cuizhu's level. "
"You look at the problem from the perspective of an immortal cultivator," Shen Zhining sighed, "If you were a mortal, you wouldn't think it's nothing.
You must know that penicillin should not appear in such an era. "
"Miss, there is a place in the Cold Palace where many people come in and out, including the charming Princess Yong'an," Cuizhu reported, "Maybe your Majesty's secret is there, do you want me to go and find out."
"No, there must be immortal cultivators guarding there," Shen Zhining shook her head, "If you want to test Your Majesty, just go to Xianghua Palace."
Cuizhu remembered the last time she tested Xu Mochen and ended up feeling lonely: "Then Cuizhu will wait until His Majesty comes back to say that the lady invites you."
"Well," Shen Zhining frowned, "Cuizhu, you should know my situation. I just wonder if I should join forces with His Majesty."
Cuizhu was startled: "Miss, your soul core is in the hands of the master. Now that the master is hostile to His Majesty, you cannot disobey the master."
"Hmph, he practices the magical skill of stealing orifices and marrying clothes. In his eyes, I am just a replacement piece of clothing," Shen Zhining sneered, "And Senior Brother Zhao, do you think he is as loyal as you have seen in the past? "
Cuizhu didn't dare to speak.
"If you want to get rid of your adoptive father, it might be a good idea to join forces with His Majesty," Shen Zhining said to herself, "Otherwise, if His Majesty falls in the future, I will never be able to get rid of him again."
"In that case," Cuizhu gritted his teeth, "Miss, you should act with caution."
There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind, and the situation is difficult.
Shen Zhining clenched the handkerchief in her hand: "If I am right, His Majesty must be wary of me. However, we must first eliminate the wariness between us before there is hope for this matter."
Cuizhu nodded: "I feel that if you are not 100% sure, it is better not to move.
The activation of the master's magical power is not a one-day thing, and the young lady will be safe for a short time. "
"Huh, that's not the critical moment," Shen Zhining raised her eyebrows, "Just watch, the first one will be Senior Brother Zhao, but I don't know if he knows it well."
The two were silent for a while, and finally Shen Zhining sighed: "Please pay attention. If His Majesty returns to the palace, please ask him to come over."
Some things are actually a good thing if they are spoken out.
On the other side, Xu Mochen has been busy outside for more than ten days.
Due to the timely discovery, the availability of symptomatic drugs, and the full cooperation of the courtiers, the plague, which could have caused a catastrophe, was quickly quelled.
The doctors from the National Medical Center took the greatest credit this time, and Xu Mochen also issued an order to commend him.
The matter could not be concealed, and it soon spread among the people. This was equivalent to silent publicity for the National Medical Center and Xu Mochen.
He felt that the national destiny in his body had increased a little.
After it was almost over, Xu Mochen originally intended to keep Xie Jing in the capital. After all, he was also a rare talent.
However, Xie Jing declined and still had matters to deal with in the south, and would wait until he had the opportunity to talk about it in the future.
When he saw what the National Medical Center was tinkering with, he was naturally itchy.
In this case, Shu Wuyin also had to leave.
Xie Jing was riding in a carriage, while Shu Wuyin was riding a horse. She jumped on the horse and raised her chin towards Xu Mochen: "Xu Mochen, I'll see you again in the future."
The latter waved with a smile. He did not dislike this dark and inconspicuous woman.
Although he is a stranger, he is still a human race. In Xu Mochen's opinion, he is different from an immortal cultivator.
Tang Derun finally breathed a sigh of relief, his legs were no longer cramped and his waist was straight: "Your Majesty, what is Miss Shu's background?"
Why do my legs feel weak when I see it?
"What kind of stranger is she?" Xu Mochen shook his head, "She is still a ghoul. I only stayed with her for one night and didn't get to know her in depth."
"In terms of aliens," Tang Derun knew something about them, "they are mutants in the human race. They are very rare in number. They are neither human nor immortal, but their status is a bit embarrassing."
Back in the imperial study, Xu Mochen received a bunch of memorials from the ministers.
If such a big thing happens, as an important minister in the DPRK, he must express his feelings.
One by one, they swore to God to plead for the lives of the people, to save them from dire straits.
No one mentioned the cause.
Very simple, this must be a natural disaster, not a man-made disaster.
After all, it was the plague, a natural disaster that no one could do anything about.
In the past, Xu Mochen would have thought that everyone loved the people like their own children, but now he just finds it funny.
Everyone knew that this matter was done secretly by the immortal cultivators, but no one said anything.
But unfortunately, there was nothing he could do.
"Let's keep it all under wraps," Xu Mochen pushed the memorial away, "We need to investigate the affairs of the General Affairs Department as soon as possible."
Tang Derun accepted the order: "The General Administration Department is relatively Qingshui Yamen, and the interpersonal relationships are not complicated, so infiltration is a bit difficult.
But don't worry, Your Majesty, Wei Chen will do his best. "
Xu Mochen nodded, and the servant's voice sounded outside: "Your Majesty, the people from Concubine Xian's palace are here and want to see Your Majesty."
A virtuous concubine? Only then did Xu Mochen remember that he had a concubine.
This virtuous concubine is Shen Changfeng's daughter.
It seemed that the other party had already made a clear plan and was waiting for him to fall into the trap.
"It's hard to break through Shen Changfeng's side, so let's start from here." Xu Mochen flicked his sleeves and pushed open the door of the imperial study, "Do you want to see me?"
"Your Majesty, I wish you all the best," Cuizhu saluted. "I heard that your Majesty worked hard day and night, so she specially prepared some nourishing things. When your Majesty comes back, she asked her servants to come over and invite you."
It turns out that I was asked to take tonics.
Xu Mochen smiled: "Your mother-in-law is so thoughtful, so I can't let you down. Just show her off."
