Then there was the sound of clattering footsteps.
The applicants who were originally queuing quietly all ran to one position.
"What's going on? What's wrong with General Cui?" Jin Hu leaned over to take a look and complained.
Hearing the voice, the second prince stood up and looked around.
I saw everyone running towards interview booth number four.
Interview booth No. 4 was in charge of a young general named Cui Shaoyi.
"Oh, no, no, I mean Suo Youren! His name is Suo Youren, not asking everyone to come over!" General Cui's hoarse voice came.
The second prince asked Jin Hu to sit down and continue the interview, then stood up and walked towards interview booth No. 4.
Xia Miaoyuan tugged at the corner of the second prince's robe like a clingy kitten.
The second prince simply held her in his arms.
Silver Leopard and two bodyguards pushed through the crowd, clearing a path for the Second Prince.
"What's going on?" The second prince walked up to General Cui and asked.
At this time, a large number of applicants flocked to the front of General Cui's interview booth, and the scene was in chaos.
General Cui made a bitter face as he handed an information sheet to the Second Prince and explained, "Just now it was the turn of an applicant named Suo Youren. I called his name, and so many people came running over!"
Xia Miaoyuan took a look at the information sheet and saw that it said: Name, Suo Youren.
Hahahaha! So his name is So Woo-in. General Choi has an accent, so it sounds like "everyone," and then everyone showed up.
Xia Miaoyuan buried her face in the second prince's shoulder and laughed.
The Second Prince pursed his lips, suppressing his smile. He looked up and shouted to the crowd, "Please disperse and return to your original seats!"
"What is this! Are you kidding me?" Someone in the crowd complained.
"It's too chaotic. One moment everyone is asked to pass, and the next moment they are asked to disperse."
"Ahem..." The Second Prince cleared his throat and shouted again, "Whose name is Suo Youren?"
"I, I, I, sir! I am Suo Youren!" A man with a black face and a turban ran over.
General Cui was furious when he saw Suo Youren finally showed up. He scolded him, "Where have you been? I called you several times just now and you didn't respond."
Suo Youren smiled and said, "I'm so sorry, sir. I had a stomachache this morning and just couldn't help but go to the bathroom."
Xia Miaoyuan took a look and saw a dark-faced man in his thirties standing in front of the interview table. He was wearing a brown scarf that completely covered the lower half of his face.
"This person is so weird, why is she wearing a veil? She's not a beautiful woman wearing a veil because she's afraid of being seen."
[This person, just looking at the upper half of her face, is obviously not good-looking. Is she wearing a veil to hide her ugliness?]
Xia Miaoyuan was complaining to herself when suddenly, as if she remembered something, her eyes widened.
[Ah! It's Suo Youren! I remember now. I was just laughing. Oops! Second brother, there's something wrong with this guy!]
Xia Miaoyuan suddenly remembered that in the book, there was a person named Suo Youren, who was a man of Liang Chaozong.
[He is here to carry out Liang Chaozong's plague conspiracy! ]
What? A plague conspiracy!
The second prince felt a chill down his spine.
Xia Miaoyuan's palms were sweating with anxiety. [There was an outbreak of plague in Jiaxiang Town, but local officials concealed the report. Liang Chaozong took advantage of the opportunity to plot a plague conspiracy.]
[I remember in the book, they picked a dozen young men from Jiaxiang Town and sneaked into the capital, causing a major outbreak of plague there. In this life, could it be that they're trying to infiltrate plague patients into the Imperial Guards?]
Xia Miaoyuan pulled the Second Prince's ear and whispered in his ear, "He's a bad guy, check him out!"
After hearing his sister's thoughts, the second prince broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
If the plague spreads among the Imperial Guards, it will deal a fatal blow to them.
If the imperial guards lost their role in defending the capital, and foreign enemies took the opportunity to attack the capital, the consequences would be disastrous.
Thinking of this, the second prince quickly picked up the information sheet on the table.
I saw Suo Youren's hometown column. It was indeed Jiaxiang Town.
"Are you from Jiaxiang?" The second prince looked up at Suo Youren.
"Yes, sir."
"Why are you wearing a veil? Take it off and let me see." The second prince said coldly.
Suo Youren's eyes dodged, "Sir, my...my...nose sneezes when it comes into contact with the wind, so I wear a face mask."
After he finished speaking, he quickly turned around and glanced at the person behind him.
The second prince glanced at the man behind Suo Youren and saw that although he was also a young man, he was very thin, with a pale face and black eye sockets.
The second prince shuddered instantly. This person looked sick. Could he be the plague patient in Jiaxiang Town?
"The one behind, are you and Suo Youren from the same place?" the second prince suddenly asked.
"Ahem!" The thin young man coughed twice before speaking. "Sir, that's right, we are all from Jiaxiang Town."
After receiving the definite answer, the second prince subconsciously took a step back.
"Come here, arrest this Suo Youren and the fellow villager behind him!" the second prince ordered in a deep voice.
General Cui looked at the Second Prince in disbelief.
The soldiers around were also puzzled, but after all, it was the Second Prince who had spoken, so they dared not disobey.
In a flash, several soldiers came forward and grabbed Suo Youren and the thin young man.
"What crime have I committed? Why are you arresting me, sir?" Suo Youren pleaded pitifully.
The Second Prince ignored him and simply waved his hand, saying, "Find a secluded place and lock them up separately. Tie them up, and no one of you is allowed to approach them."
