She believed that everything would have signs in advance, but this infectious disease had infected thousands of people in just three days.
Isn't that too fast?
Too sudden?
It caught everyone off guard.
Zong Zhengchen's eyes darkened. "I am also keeping an eye on the matter you mentioned. Yesterday, I ordered Deputy General Jiang to secretly rush to Dongning City to investigate."
This disease really came in a strange way.
"The prince went there on his own initiative?" Qin Ye was curious. "I heard that there is no cure for this disease yet. Isn't he afraid of getting infected?"
When did the prince become so righteous?
Could it be that after the assassination attempt a few days ago, he wanted to show off and perform in front of Huang Shang?
The man said, "Han Ying also went to Dongning City."
Hanying and Hanfeng are a pair of siblings who have followed him since childhood.
Han Feng practices martial arts, has high skills and is very agile; Han Ying has superb medical skills; the two of them are his right-hand men.
"I want to go, too."
"???"
Zong Zhengchen suddenly raised his head, as if he was hallucinating, but when he saw the serious look on the woman's face, the rice in his bowl suddenly lost its fragrance.
Dongning City is very dangerous now. Will he let her take the risk?
"Don't even think about it." A direct refusal with no room for negotiation.
"I know medical skills, maybe I can help." Qin Ye moved a stool and sat closer. "This disease is so contagious. If we delay for another quarter of an hour, many innocent people will be infected. I also want to help."
"If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. There are so many people in Dongling Country who know medicine. It won't be your turn no matter how long it takes."
"But……"
"Have a meal."
The man reached out, pinched her chin, turned her around, and put the chopsticks back into her hand.
"But... well!"
As soon as he opened his mouth, a braised lion head was stuffed into his mouth, blocking the words that were about to come out.
Qin Ye chewed his food and looked at him dimly:
"Isn't your goal to uphold justice and serve the country and the people?"
Zong Zhengchen held the silver chopsticks lightly and picked out the small thorns on the fish belly with very skillful movements. He raised his eyebrows and asked:
"That's my target. I've already sent Deputy General Jiang and Han Ying to investigate. What does it have to do with you?"
“…”
It seems to make sense.
She was speechless.
"I also want to uphold justice!"
"You should give birth to your baby at home."
“…”
"If you have time, go to Prince Feng's Mansion. Princess Feng is pregnant."
What?!
Princess Feng?
"Hasn't she been childless for seven or eight years after marrying Prince Feng? How come she is pregnant now?" Qin Ye was surprised. The last time the prince was choosing a concubine in the palace, she was not pregnant yet.
The man said lightly, "I don't know."
"This morning, the Emperor looked very unhappy because of the epidemic and the war on the border. He threw things, smashed things, and cursed. Fortunately, Prince Feng reported the news that Princess Feng was pregnant in time, and the Emperor felt relieved."
The emperor was delighted and very pleased. He waved his hand and gave many gifts to Prince Feng's Mansion.
Upon hearing the news, other princes, princesses, lords and ladies went to Prince Feng's Mansion to congratulate them.
The royal heir is the top priority of national inheritance.
In addition, the emperor is nearly fifty years old and has no grandson yet. If a princess becomes pregnant, it would be great news.
Qin Ye and Princess Feng are sisters-in-law. Since Princess Feng is pregnant, she naturally has to visit her.
But……
Qin Ye's face fell: "When I go to see her, I have to bring gifts with me? Giving gifts away every day, left and right, even the richest family can't afford such a toss..."
Pregnant, gift giving.
Give gifts when the baby is born in the future.
Child’s hundred-day party, giving gifts.
What kind of family gives gifts every day?!
