But the prime minister trusted Shan Wandong so much that Lu Zongyuan was helpless.

In this case, we can only send people to keep a close eye on this sorcerer. If he dares to do anything wrong, he will be dead.

The Duan family didn't know about the plans of several people. There were so many things going on in the court right now that it was a bit overwhelming.

In Fengyi Palace, Xiao Ruyu opened her eyes hazily. The little prince beside her babbled twice, which caught Xiao Ruyu's attention.

[Stinky brother, are you okay? ]

Xiao Ruyu crawled to the side of the little prince. There was a black line on Xiao Ruyu's wrist. If you look closely, it is a black poisonous insect.

Xiao Ruyu was horrified. She had almost gotten rid of the poisonous insects, so why were they still on Xiao Rujin's body? Was it someone's deliberate plot?

At this time, the palace maids were guarding outside, and the wet nurse went to prepare breakfast for the two princes. Xiao Ruyu closed her eyes and entered the space where the rings were stored.

She was thinking of Xiao Rujin's name in her heart, and unexpectedly, she brought him into the space of Medicine King Valley.

Xiao Ruyu returned to her previous life's appearance. Xiao Rujin woke up at this time and looked at Xiao Ruyu with blinking eyes.

The little prince, who was usually silent, was now babbling.

"Sister, beautiful sister~"

Xiao Ruyu was a little surprised that the little mute actually spoke. She pinched Xiao Ruijin's cheek and spoke very gently.

"Jin'er, grow up obediently, your sister will protect you!"

Xiao Ruyu carried the little prince to the back mountain, fed him a few sips of spiritual spring water, then walked to the thatched hut in the back mountain and took out the silver needle.

It seemed that the poison in the little prince had been planted half a month ago, but it was hidden too deeply and Xiao Ruyu did not notice it.

She has the body of a baby, she spends more time sleeping than awake, so naturally it is different.

Xiao Ruijin's face was originally very pale, but he finally felt better after drinking the spiritual spring water. Xiao Ruyu cut the little prince's finger with a dagger and released the black poisonous blood.

She closed her eyes and used her spiritual power to force the poisonous insect out of Xiao Rujin's body. The Medicine King Valley was full of energy, and Xiao Ruyu felt very comfortable all over.

A lively poisonous insect fell to the ground and was about to attack Xiao Ruyu. Xiao Ruyu raised his hand and burned it to death with his spiritual power.

The smell of the burnt insect was a bit unpleasant. Xiao Ruyu pinched her nose, feeling a little disgusted.

She calculated with her fingers and figured out that the poisonous insect was caused by Concubine Li in Qiwu Palace. It seemed that she would not live long.

Therefore, Concubine Li thought of transferring the poisonous insect, and the victim became the little prince. If Xiao Ruyu had not discovered it early, her stinky brother would have been persecuted again.

It seems that Concubine Li cannot be kept, but her aura is too powerful and difficult to deal with.

But it doesn’t matter. Not everyone can use the insect poison. Concubine Li... can only suffer from it.

Xiao Ruyu seemed to be thinking about something, and then took Xiao Rujin away from the storage ring space.

After Xiao Rujin drank the spiritual spring, the marks of the poisonous insect on his arm disappeared. Xiao Ruyu then bestowed him with spiritual power, so that he would also be blessed with good fortune.

Lord Duan was busy settling the victims and had almost no rest for several days.

Duan Yiheng and Duan Yiling were busy serving Lord Duan and helping him solve his problems.

"Father, there are more and more refugees. We can't let anyone in from the capital anymore."

Duan Yiheng is almost ten years old and has a very calm temperament. Seeing refugees everywhere, he was worried about the outbreak of epidemics, so he considered this matter with great foresight.

Lord Duan arranged the task now and looked at the two boys beside him with a restrained expression.

"Heng'er, refugees are also citizens of our Xuan Country. If we don't let them into the capital, how do you think we should deal with them?"

Duan Yiheng thought about it seriously, and then said in a serious tone.

"There are several farmhouses 600 miles outside the capital. Although they are not very good, they are still suitable for living and cooking. It is better to disperse the refugees. In this way, we can also reduce the pressure."

Lord Duan felt that Duan Yiheng was thoughtful, but the matter was complicated and it still depended on the emperor's opinion, so it was not easy to make a decision directly.

"I think your consideration is very thoughtful, but we still have to wait for the emperor's decree."

As the father and his two sons were talking, Lord Duan suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves outside the military camp. He hurriedly took people to welcome the emperor, and saw Eunuch Yin coming.

Eunuch Yin was holding the imperial edict in his hand, which must be some instruction from the emperor.

"The emperor's decree has arrived. Please accept it, my lord."

Lord Duan's handsome face was firm. He lifted his robe and knelt on one knee.

"Your humble servant accepts the order."

"As the number of refugees in the capital increases, I will order people to build a camp in the suburbs. Lord Duan will be in charge of this. In addition, the medical officer has been selected, and the food from the court will also be transported here.

The emperor means that there are many people in the military camp and they are talkative. You and the two young masters should be more vigilant in everything to prevent people from having bad intentions. "

Eunuch Yin spoke bluntly, and Lord Duan understood what he meant and spoke solemnly.

"I will obey your orders and live up to your expectations."

Lord Duan's loyalty to the emperor is evident to all, and Eunuch Yin also believes in him very much, otherwise he would not have given the Lord Duan such a good job.

"My Lord, you have worked hard. I have to go back and report to the Emperor, so I will not keep you any longer."

After saying this, Eunuch Yin took his men away.

After Lord Duan received the imperial edict, he took action.

The people were all settled in and laid out on new bedding, but their faces were pale and they looked weaker than each other.

Imperial Physician Yang happened to be taking his medical officers to the outskirts of the capital, where the refugees lined up one by one waiting to be examined.

Among them, many people were coughing violently and had signs of fever. Doctor Yang had a bad feeling, and as he expected, the refugees were diagnosed with the plague.

Imperial Physician Yang told Lord Duan about the matter directly, with worry in his tone.

"My Lord, the disease is a plague. We must separate and isolate the refugees. We must also mobilize the Duan family army to guard the suburbs to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the situation and ruining our plan."

The two young masters' faces changed. They had been living a life of luxury since childhood, surrounded by servants, and they didn't know that the plague was highly contagious. They were afraid that it was difficult to prevent.

Lord Duan trusted Imperial Physician Yang. After all, the friendship between the two families did not happen overnight. When he heard his answer, his eyelids trembled violently.

He knew better than anyone how terrible the plague was. Since the emperor had given him the task, he must not make any mistakes. Otherwise, all his efforts would be in vain.

"Don't worry, I will send someone to mobilize the Duan family army and will not let the people suffer any harm."

That night, Imperial Physician Yang and Lord Duan did not sleep all night and arranged a destination for the refugees. Among the more than 700 refugees, fifty were infected with the disease.

It may not seem like a lot, but if you count carefully, the number is not small at all. After all, plague is a devastating disease.
