Zhao Ji smiled slightly: "These are specially sent by the emperor to me for your treatment. The emperor's grace is so great that we must not let him down."

"Besides, you haven't been cured yet, so how can you say that my medicine can't cure you? If you don't drink this medicine today, then I and the thousands of soldiers behind me will not drink it either."

"I swore before I came here that I should share weal and woe with you. If I can't even fulfill this oath, I will be unworthy of the mission given to me by the emperor. The emperor's grace is great, and these two beastly corrupt officials have already failed the emperor's grace. You should regard these as compensation!"

Every word Zhao Ji spoke was sincere. The people remained silent, and Zhao Ji also remained silent.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly a weak voice came: "My lord, I am willing to give it a try. I want to live. Even if everyone in my family dies and I am the only one left, I still want to live!"

"My mother also wants to see me get married and have children, so that my Wang family can expand!"

As Wang Yang spoke, tears began to flow, but he still looked at Zhao Ji with a firm gaze.

Zhao Ji recognized that this was the patient whose physical condition he had examined using his internal energy yesterday.

Zhao Ji didn't say anything. He filled a bowl with medicine and walked over. He touched Wang Yang's shoulder and asked him to drink the medicine.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Zhao Ji used his internal energy to slightly wrap up the black air in Wang Yang's body.

After drinking a bowl of hot medicine, Wang Yang began to sweat all over, mainly because the black air had dissipated for a large part.

After finishing all the medicine, Wang Yang wiped his mouth and shouted, "Great, I feel a lot better!"

With Wang Yang's lead, naturally some scattered people who still wanted to live stood up.

Zhao Ji followed Wang Yang's process and sorted out the black energy in the bodies of these people.

Because it could only be a brief physical contact when taking the medicine, and Zhao Ji didn't want to be cured so quickly, and there was no such magic medicine in the world.

However, even with a small treatment, the patients who took the medicine felt much more relaxed.

With them, we went back to the patient queue to spread the word, and soon a long queue formed on Zhao Ji's side.

The medicine disappeared little by little, and the number of people who had not taken the medicine gradually decreased.

By the time night falls, all the medicine for the day has been distributed.

Tian Zhao took a look and found that almost all the patients had been treated.

Except for the two people in the pit.

The two corrupt officials shouted and yelled in the pit for a long time, but later they found out that there was no water or food above, so they learned their lesson and stopped shouting.

It should also conserve energy.

By night, the corrupt officials smelled the aroma of rice and medicinal herbs wafting over from the pit.

He regained the strength to shout at the bottom of the pit, but his voice was much weaker.

And in between shouting, he coughed a lot.

Zhao Ji estimated that these two corrupt officials must have been infected with the plague they feared.

"Just leave them there and make sure they don't die..." Zhao Ji sneered, showing no sympathy at all for the two creatures at the bottom of the pit that could not be called human beings.

On the other side of the imperial city, Yueying suddenly found someone looking for her. In a not-so-obvious place, she saw the badge she had given to Zhao Ji.

When she saw the badge for the first time, Yueying's heart subconsciously skipped a beat. This was the certificate she had given to Zhao Ji to contact the Black Guards.

Now the badge suddenly appeared, and Zhao Ji was nowhere to be seen. Yueying had to feel heavy-hearted and think of the worst outcome.

When she picked up the badge and followed the instructions to a house, she saw the soldiers sent back by Zhao Ji.

"The Lord said that you are the person he trusts the most. If there is anything in Kyoto, he will come to you. The Lord said that he hopes you can arrange for the witness to meet the emperor to report the matter..."

Yueying covered her face and chest every day, so the soldier in front of her didn't know that there was a woman in front of him.

He just said what Zhao Ji said.

The person I trust the most… Yueying’s face turned red when she heard this, luckily it was covered by the mask.

"This is a serious matter. I need to check if there is anything wrong with the witness."

Since Zhao Ji trusted her so much, Yueying had no intention of stopping him, and even planned to help.

However, Yueying is most loyal to the emperor, so naturally she has to check it from beginning to end.

This refugee who was sent to Kyoto never thought that he would have the opportunity to meet the emperor. He trembled all over and didn't even dare to look up at the moonlight.

After Yueying finished the inspection, he immediately arranged for the military and the witness to go to the palace to meet the emperor overnight.

The emperor received Yueying's report, listened to the witness's stammering narration, and also listened to the entire process described by the soldier sent by Zhao Ji.

It was impossible for the emperor not to be furious now.

"That's great. I didn't expect such a big problem to arise under my rule. Do the ministers in the court think I'm deaf and blind?"

The emperor was so angry that he threw the teacup in his hand to the ground.

He was angry that these court officials were so bold as to conceal their true intentions and deceive their superiors.

He was even more angry about these refugees, who might riot at any time, but he, who sat on the throne, had not received any news of this at all.

Moreover, Hua'an County is not far from Kyoto. If the epidemic spreads to Kyoto, even the emperor will not be spared.

For various reasons, just as Zhao Ji had guessed, the emperor could no longer suppress his anger.

Seeing that the situation was similar to what Zhao Ji had told him privately, the sergeant quickly took out a secret letter written by Zhao Ji and said, "Your Majesty, this is what the Master Seal Master gave me, saying that Your Majesty needs to open it in person!"

The emperor took the letter, opened it and the more he read it, his brows relaxed more and more, and in the end he even laughed and danced with joy.

"As expected, we still need Zhao Aiqing. Not bad, not bad. The dynasty should have more people like Zhao Aiqing..."

"Yueying, go and secretly collect some medicinal herbs and send them to Hua'an County. Zhao Aiqing said that he once studied under a divine doctor and now has a prescription for curing the epidemic. He is short of these herbs, so send them to him!"

"Also, Yueying, go to the Ministry of Revenue and find the best house in the capital!"

"When Zhao Aiqing returns safely, I will reward him!"

Only the soldier had a little doubt in his heart. When Zhao Ji handed the letter to him, he had not seen the patients yet. How could he have the treatment prescription?

However, the soldiers in the army were not very careful and did not take the matter seriously.

During this trip, the soldiers admired Zhao Ji very much, as if he were wearing a filter.

I have made up my mind about all the details.

It is even more impossible for other people to know Zhao Ji's foresight.

Yueying just found out that Zhao Ji had actually gone deep into the patients' bodies. She felt her heart beating faster and a feeling of worry filled her heart.
