Emperor Yuanwu suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Is something the matter?
Mu Qianqian tilted her head, as if looking in the direction of Qiluan Garden.
Emperor Yuanwu seemed to understand her meaning, and carried her to the side of the Great Kunpeng.
The sleeping Kunpeng, upon hearing the sound, glanced at Mu Qianqian with a look of utter despair.
Now, whenever it sees Mu Qianqian approaching, it has a bad feeling.
As expected.
Mu Qianqian gestured and made sounds at it, pointing at the birds in the sky.
Great Kunpeng: [I don't understand, I don't understand, what kind of human language is that? I don't understand, if you're so capable, speak bird language.]
Mu Qianqian: ...
[Fine, fine! You're so high and mighty. I'll come find you after I've accompanied my dad to work!]
Da Kunpeng: ...
When Emperor Yuanwu brought Mu Qianqian to the Imperial Study.
Just then, a memorial from Beihai was also delivered.
The contents of the memorial sent a chill down Emperor Yuanwu's spine.
"How could the situation in Beihai have become so serious overnight!" Emperor Yuanwu was furious.
The memorials previously submitted to him only stated that the North Sea was being harassed by the Xia Kingdom and that there was a severe locust plague.
Lu Zhaofeng had just arrived in Beihai when he found the streets littered with corpses and a severe epidemic.
Wu Jixiang trembled with fright and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty, locust plagues have always existed. In addition, the soldiers of Xia Kingdom burned down the granaries, resulting in a shortage of water and food. Coupled with the hot weather, once there are casualties, if they are not dealt with in time, epidemics will be difficult to avoid!"
"Where is the messenger? Bring him up here. I want to ask him about the situation over there myself," Emperor Yuanwu said sullenly.
The messenger was a cavalryman.
He was just a lowly soldier, and the highest-ranking official he had ever met in his life was a deputy general.
Now kneeling in Emperor Yuanwu's study, his heart was pounding and he was covered in cold sweat: "Greetings... Your Majesty, long live the Emperor!"
After the cavalryman finished speaking, he couldn't help but cough twice: "Cough cough!"
"You came from the North Sea?" Emperor Yuanwu asked, frowning.
"Yes, Your Majesty," the cavalryman replied timidly.
"What is the current situation in Beihai?" Emperor Yuanwu continued to press for answers.
"Reporting...cough cough...Reporting to Your Majesty." The cavalryman suppressed a cough, fearing he might lose his composure before the palace: "The North Sea is short of food and supplies, the disaster is severe, everyone is in danger, the streets are piled high with corpses, if this continues, the North Sea will be lost, Your Majesty...cough cough..."
One cough after another.
This caused Mu Qianqian, who was lying in Emperor Yuanwu's arms, to look in his direction.
The cavalryman's face was pale, and his forehead was covered with a fine layer of sweat.
Only the corners of her lips were red to a purplish hue.
Looking at him, it didn't seem like fear, but rather...
[Father, something terrible has happened!]
This cavalryman has been infected with the plague.
[Quickly! Call someone to isolate and disinfect!]
Emperor Yuanwu's pupils dilated sharply: "Guards, take this cavalryman to the side hall and summon the imperial physician."
The cavalrymen turned ashen with fear.
My legs started trembling.
I often heard that Emperor Yuanwu was cruel.
But I never expected it.
He is utterly depraved.
He simply sent the memorial over as fast as he could, and now he is just telling the truth.
Emperor Yuanwu actually wanted to punish him.
Heaven is truly determined to destroy Beihai!
Heaven is going to destroy the Yuan Dynasty!
"Your Majesty, I'm innocent! Your Majesty!" the cavalryman cried and struggled. "Your Majesty, I'm telling the truth! Please spare me!"
The cavalryman hadn't finished speaking.
A white cloth was then placed over his head.
cavalry:……
A chill ran through him.
