Chapter 407 Don't Want to Grow Up
Not to mention King Huai, Xuanyuan Ling didn't expect this either. Jinzhou actually had a plague. There had been natural disasters in recent years, but most of them were quickly controlled. When something like a plague broke out, people died in large numbers, and it had to be controlled as soon as possible. Xuanyuan Ling immediately summoned the ministers to discuss the matter. If there was a plague, the army and imperial doctors had to be sent. The money and food previously allocated for disaster relief were not enough, and they were afraid that something might happen.
Xuanyuan Ling became busy all of a sudden, but Chen Qing felt a little nervous after hearing about the plague. These years had been too smooth for her, so smooth that she hadn't thought about Xuanyuan Ling's death node for a long time.
The plot has become so confusing that Shen Qing hasn't remembered that he was actually a transmigrator in a book for a long time. He really thinks that Xuanyuan Ling will not have this death node, but after all, he still remembers it, so he can't help but think of it in his mind. In the original book, Xuanyuan Ling was 38 years old and died of plague.
Xuanyuan Ling is thirty-six years old this year. Even if there is a plague, Shen Qing doesn't think it will happen and it has nothing to do with him. But how can one not associate something with a hook? Moreover, it is very unlucky. Isn't Shen Zhizhuo also in Jinzhou?
Thinking of this, she couldn't sleep.
When Chunhua heard the news, she thought about Shen Zhizhuo. She naturally didn't know that Shen Qing also thought about Xuanyuan Ling's death node, but Shen Zhizhuo was in Jinzhou, so it was natural for her to worry as a sister. She couldn't help but comfort him twice: "Don't worry, Madam, little Lord Shen will be fine."
Chen Qing also sighed after hearing this. In fact, it was useless for her to worry about anything at the moment. Chen Zhizhuo was in Jinzhou. If something really went wrong after Xuanyuan Ling sent people there, her worry would be useless. As for Xuanyuan Ling, they were naturally safe in the palace. What was she thinking about?
Chunhua helped Chen Qing lie down, and when she left the room, she sighed, thinking that unless Chen Zhizhuo was safe, the queen would be worried.
Xuanyuan Ling had something to do, and it was already very late when he wanted to rest. At this time, he thought that Chen Qing was asleep, and he originally didn't plan to go find Chen Qing, but after thinking about it, he decided to go.
After washing up and entering the inner room, Xuanyuan Ling was about to go to bed when he found that Shen Qing was still awake.
The candlelight in the room was dim, Xuanyuan Ling looked at Shen Qing and couldn't see her expression clearly: "Are you thinking about Shen Zhizhuo?"
He came late today and had not planned to come, but thinking that Chen Zhizhuo was in Jinzhou, she must be worried. When she woke up, he would tell her that he had arranged people to go to Jinzhou to deal with the plague and ease her mind. Unexpectedly, she was still awake, which showed that she was very worried.
"It's not just because of him, but also because of you."
Shen Qing opened his mouth, but he couldn't tell Xuanyuan Ling that this plague was too unlucky. It reminded me of the ending that you should have died of the plague, right? Finally, he said, "Prince Huai is still in Jinzhou. The emperor must be worried."
Xuanyuan Ling's brows softened a little as he listened. He was thinking about her worrying about Shen Zhizhuo, and she was also thinking about him worrying about King Huai. He was worried about King Huai. Natural disasters were the most ruthless. Who could have predicted things like the plague? King Huai had encountered such a thing on his trip. As a father, how could he not be worried? This was his eldest son.
Xuanyuan Ling raised his hand and touched Shen Qing's head and sighed. He was able to express his worries in front of Shen Qing because of the matter in Jinzhou. "I am worried, but it is not a good time to call him back."
"The emperor didn't order Prince Huai to return. Does that mean the situation in Jinzhou is still under control?"
Xuanyuan Ling said calmly: "If we can't control it, I will naturally not send anyone down. In the end, we will not only ask them to withdraw, but also properly resettle the people. However, if we can control it, King Huai cannot leave."
Chen Qing thought of Xiaoliu. This was probably the royal heir. There was a plague, and Prince Huai was there to take charge. But if Prince Huai was called back directly because of the plague, the royal majesty would be lost in the eyes of the people. If the royal family fled first when something happened, it would inevitably make people think that the matter was already very serious. The current situation was not too serious after being fully reported, and it could still be controlled. If Prince Huai really left, I am afraid that Jinzhou would be in turmoil. If Jinzhou was really in turmoil, coupled with the plague, the matter would become even more out of control.
Sometimes, if you enjoy better conditions than others, you have to bear different risks than others. Xiaoliu is still young now, and he may encounter such things in the future.
In this situation, even if Xiaoliu encountered it, Xuanyuan Ling would not let Xiaoliu retreat first.
Chen Qing sighed: "I suddenly don't want Xiaoliu to grow up."
Xuanyuan Ling was silent after hearing her say this, he was not angry, she was very good to Xiaoliu, it was normal for a mother to worry about her child, it was normal for her to think of Xiaoliu because of him leaving King Huai behind, some things were always unexpected, who could have expected this to happen this time, he could not give Shen Qing a promise on this matter.
Shen Qing could sense Xuanyuan Ling's silence.
She understood what silence meant at this time.
She hugged him tighter: "I just suddenly thought of Xiaoliu. I can't help but think that if Xiaoliu encountered such a thing, I would be worried. I know that the emperor either abandoned Prince Huai or encountered it himself. If it is not absolutely necessary, the emperor will not leave, right?"
"yes."
Shen Qing grabbed his hand: "Maybe it's a bit unreasonable for me to say this, but even if it's Xiaoliu who stays in Jinzhou today, I know that you are right to do this."
Xuanyuan Ling's heart was shaken.
He didn't think Shen Qing was talking without any pain in her waist. She was very serious about it. She understood what it meant to be a prince. She could always understand him. Of course, most ministers could understand his decision, but he couldn't show his inner fragility in front of the ministers. He was the emperor. Everyone could make trouble, but he couldn't.
He had heard too much about the emperor's wisdom, but Shen Qing's words "You are right to do this" made him feel a little sour.
"Go to sleep. You have to get up early tomorrow."
Xuanyuan Ling hugged her tightly: "Yeah."
The next day, Xuanyuan Ling woke up and looked at Chen Qing's sleeping face. He kissed her gently. When he came out of the inner room, his expression was very different from when he was inside.
The matter in Jinzhou is not over yet.
King Huai soon received an urgent imperial edict from Xuanyuan Ling, ordering him to garrison Jinzhou, calm the people and control the plague.
King Huai was very nervous and irritable. He was waiting for news from the other side. In fact, he knew in his heart that he could not leave, but when the imperial edict was issued, he had no way out. For this time of plague, he could only be more forceful and bring the plague under control as soon as possible.
