Tang Youyou laughed so hard when she heard this.

"I don't know who came up with this idea, but it's a good one. At least everyone won't be scrambling for it, and the real patients can get treatment."

Yu breathed a sigh of relief. "That's great! The plague has been cured, and once the relief grain is released, the refugees won't riot if they have nothing to eat. We can finally breathe a sigh of relief!"

Tang Youyou didn't comment, but she found that the villagers had all changed their previous decadent temperament, and were full of energy, and seemed to be working tirelessly.

Looking at the two newly built adobe houses, Datang knelt on the ground and cried loudly, "Dad, Mom, brother, wife, I have a home now, don't worry, wuwuwu..."

Seeing this, everyone wiped their tears at the same time. Someone wanted to step forward to comfort him, but Tang Youyou held that person back and shook his head, "Let him cry. Maybe he'll feel better after crying!"

After a while, Datang wiped away his tears, went back to work, and said nothing.

Seeing this, everyone followed suit. No one spoke, and everyone worked from morning to night without feeling tired.

At night, Xueer and Lin Huahua brought two buckets of medicine.

"Doctor Xiong specifically instructed us to use this medicine to prevent disease. Everyone must drink half a bowl!"

Everyone had no objection and lined up to get the medicine.

The same was true in the county town. The refugees and victims who had originally thought that they were doomed to die were now thankful that no riot had occurred, otherwise they would be the ones going to jail.

"Woo woo woo... Great, maybe we have a chance to survive!"

"A lot of people died in prison the past two days!"

"Right now, the entire Southern Province is short of food. They don't think the prison will have extra rotten rice for them to eat, do they?"

"Oh... forget about them, hurry up and get the medicine, I have terrible diarrhea!"

As soon as he said this, everyone stared at him.

"Are you having a brain problem? If you have serious symptoms, go to another line. This is for those with mild symptoms!"

The man clutched his stomach, a frown on his face. "I heard the drug was too strong. Two people rolled on the ground in pain!"

Someone couldn't help but curse out loud: "You're out of your mind. Only the right medicine will work. You're wasting medicine waiting in line! Don't say the medicine didn't work later. You deserve to have diarrhea!"

Everyone pushed him and he was pushed out. Feeling very aggrieved, he had to join another team. Seeing this, many people behind him also quietly withdrew and joined another team.

The county magistrate stood on the city wall, stroking his beard, with a smug look on his face, but he had no idea that he was about to face a disaster.

Master Li sat in his chair without saying a word. The butler wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Master, how about I go and try to get close to Butler Zhou?"

Master Li glanced at him and shook his head. "Release those two. Also, go and bring back all the books I have at the county government office. Tell the county magistrate that from today on, I will no longer be in the government office!"

The butler was slightly surprised, but did not try to persuade him. He went to the county government office in silence, but as soon as he entered the county government office, he met Butler Zhou.

The two looked at each other and walked into the room one after the other.

"Why did the master suddenly go on strike?"

"The situation is now under control, and my master wants to prepare for the exam with peace of mind!"

This sentence made Butler Zhou stop thinking about finding out more.

He sat aside and watched as people packed up their things and were about to leave. He quickly stood up, but hesitated to say anything.

"Brother Zhou, do you have something to say?"

"Ahem..." He looked at the yamen runners at the door and found that they were taking a nap.

He whispered, "Tell the master that the incident was orchestrated by the county magistrate!"

The housekeeper was confused. "Design?" What exactly was going on?

The other party tugged at his sleeve and said, "I want to go to Nanzhou Prefecture City. I hope you can help me!"

The butler glanced at him and said, "I will inform the master about this!"

"Tell the master, if you want to know the whole story, just call me!"

The housekeeper frowned slightly and left with the things in his arms.

"What did you say?" Master Li staggered, his eyes bloodshot, and he almost fell down.

"Master, what's going on?" He still didn't understand.

"Bang!" "How unreasonable, Zhou Jingxuan, you are going too far!"

The housekeeper was horrified and quickly closed the door.

Master Li suddenly sat down on the chair in a daze, with anger and sadness mixed together, and his eyes were a little cloudy.

"Haha... My mentor once said that I was too sentimental, which was a taboo for an official. I didn't agree, but I never thought I would be framed like this! Three years! If it weren't for these three years, I would have definitely entered the officialdom!"

The butler reacted immediately, thinking for a moment, "Master, Butler Zhou once said that if you want to know the whole story, you can let him know at any time!"

Master Li laughed at himself, "So what if I knew the whole story? He just saw that Zhou Jingxuan had no future and wanted to find another way out! It really proves the saying that if you don't work for yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth!"

The butler nodded slightly, a little worried. "Master, could there be some misunderstanding here? Could it be that Butler Zhou is making this up?"

Master Li closed his eyes, recalling the scenes at that time, and felt completely hopeless.

He suddenly opened his eyes, "Oh... I was so blinded by one thing at the time. Why would a county magistrate who was about to take office choose the more time-consuming water route instead of the shorter route? It turns out that all this was for me. Hahahaha... He really put a lot of thought into it!"

The housekeeper sighed, "Master, now that we know his true identity, we have to be on guard. He actually sent people to spy on our house. I'm afraid he has no good intentions. We must be on guard!"

Master Li thought of his two sons and his pregnant wife, his eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze blazing. "He wants to keep me by his side forever and make me work for him? He doesn't even consider his own weight!"

He quickly came to the table, wrote with a flourish, and a letter appeared on the paper.

"Send it to my senior brother in person and describe my misery over the years!"

The butler was slightly surprised. This was the first time he felt that his master was quite sinister.

After receiving the letter, Master Chen said, "Tsk tsk... The teacher once warned him not to be too sentimental, but he actually fell into such a trap. He really didn't listen to the old man's advice, and now he's suffering the consequences. I think he deserves it..."

The housekeeper lowered his head, pinched himself fiercely, and suddenly fell to his knees on the ground with a plop, crying:

"Sir, you don't know that for so many years, the master has diligently assisted the county magistrate. To be disrespectful, the county magistrate is a complete idiot, relying on the master for everything! When the master said he wanted to continue taking the imperial examinations, he agreed on the surface, but secretly planned to use his old tricks again and even sent people to monitor every move in the mansion!"

Master Chen was so disappointed with his friend, "He deserves it!"

The housekeeper continued to cry, "Sir, you don't know, for so many years the master has only received a salary of three taels of silver per month, and can only eat meat once a month. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is poor! Alas... the master has it so hard!"

Lord Chen recalled how he drank three bowls of tea in a row that day. He originally thought that he was just thirsty due to the long journey, but now it seems that he may not have had good tea for a long time!

"Tell your master to prepare well for the exam and don't let him worry about other things!"

After receiving a positive response, the butler breathed a sigh of relief.
