Chapter 24 Summoning

I thought that under Emperor Jingping's various measures, Kyoto would definitely be worry-free.

But Xiao Zicheng ignored one thing, that is, the efficiency of information dissemination in this era.

At noon, the situation turned sharply and villagers near Yongning County had already poured into Kyoto.

What the fleeing villagers brought was not only the news of a plague outbreak in Yongning County, but also the spread of the virus to Kyoto.

After several villagers settled down, they showed signs of illness. The entire street was blocked by the imperial guards, and the people were in turmoil.

In the face of the plague, merchants have no intention of operating the business and have closed their shoes. Those who have no way to go are all ready to take their wives, children, and children to join relatives and friends from other places.

Listening to the latest news from the little stool, Zhu Rong looked worried and worried about the country and the people.

Xiao Zicheng was anxious. He understood that although burning wormwood can disinfect bacteria to a certain extent, it has little effect.

If the news of a plague broke out in Kyoto and was heard by other countries, the war on the border may rekindle.

Thinking of this, Xiao Zicheng pulled Zhu Ying up and said, "Follow me to see you."

Zhu Ying felt a little guilty. At this critical moment, he went to see his father. Wasn't he hitting the gun in the gun...

"I won't go..." Zhu Ying smiled, "After a while, the King of War will come. I still have many questions to ask for...."

Xiao Zicheng grinned his teeth, "Stop talking, you don't want to go see you, do you think I want to go? If the plague spreads in Kyoto, no one will fall."

Zhu Ying laughed dryly, but he also knew that it was amazing and he was not refusing now.

The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, stepping on the bricks and stones that had just been cleared by the snow in the palace, Zhu Rong was a little nervous:

"You really have a way to curb the plague?"

Xiao Zicheng nodded silently, "There is a way."

"Oh?" Zhu Ying's eyes lit up, "Old Xiao, do you really have a way?"

Xiao Zicheng couldn't help but look at Zhu Ying, and a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes as usual:

"Your Highness, do you want your Majesty to look at you with admiration?"

Zhu Ying tilted her head, and for a long time, he finally nodded with emphasis.

Isn't this a matter of control...

Xiao Zicheng smiled and said:

"The way to prevent the epidemic, your highness, think about it, the most headache for Your Majesty is the plague.

The people in Kyoto are now in panic, and chaos will inevitably arise over time. Judging from the news of Xiaoshou’s investigation, His Majesty and the Cabinet seem to be helpless about this.

Think about it, at this time, Your Highness, you stand up and offer countermeasures to control the plague. What will happen to Your Majesty?"

"Haha!" Zhu Ying looked excited, "Old Xiao, you are really my good brother! You gave me such a great contribution?"

Xiao Zicheng smiled silly, "We are brothers, who will follow us?"

Zhu Ying's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

It seemed as if I had already started to fantasize about the praises of my father after learning the method, and the scenes of the old men in the cabinet complimenting him.

"Look at what is the way to fall to the ground?" Zhu Ying couldn't wait.

Xiao Zicheng told the method and the two of them said one by one. In this snowy palace, two pairs of leather boots were stepping on the snow, leaving two clear lines of marks.

.........

Since receiving the news in the morning, Emperor Jingping urgently summoned three cabinet ministers to the palace to discuss politics.

In the warm pavilion, Emperor Jingping looked at the memorial worriedly and couldn't help but cough.

Zhang Hong, the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, glanced at Emperor Jingping with concern. His Majesty was known to everyone in the world.

Even Emperor Taizu was afraid that he would not be able to get over it. But... the result of such a thorough effort was that His Majesty had always been in peace.

Now that such a big mess has happened in Kyoto, it has made it even worse, so he couldn't help but say:

"Your Majesty must protect the dragon body and must not be too busy."

Emperor Jingping shook his head with a wry smile:

"When I ascended the throne, both inside and outside the court and the country were discussing the wrongful position. I have been eating and eating all night for a while, and I have never dared to relax for a moment."

"To be honest, the late emperor was so happy that he consumed all the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although the late emperor handed over this country to me, he left me a mess..."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh:

"Now I have a son, and I cannot learn from the previous emperor. I will leave a mess for my descendants. If I have a heavy burden, my successor will lose some worries.

As a father, I will not be like me, facing internal and external troubles, but as a father, I will take on the responsibility of being a father."

As he said that, Emperor Jingping raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Hong and others.

Zhang Hong and others sighed. Since His Majesty ascended the throne, Zhang Hong, Li Mingyang and Xie Bi have been assisting Emperor Jingping with all their heart.

How could they not know Your Majesty’s thoughts?

Emperor Jingping cheered up and looked out of the hall, with deep eyes as if he could penetrate the palace wall and overlook Kyoto.

"Tell me, what's the way to deal with it?"

Even Zhang Hong was as steady as he heard the spread of the plague and could not come back for a long time after hearing the spread of Kyoto.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the news of a plague broke out in Kyoto was known to Chen Guo, he would definitely march eastward until the beginning of spring.

After thinking for a long time, Zhang Hong coughed:

"The most urgent task at the moment is to block Kyoto and not lose control. At the same time, let the western front be waiting for the opportunity, and do not give Chen the opportunity to take advantage of it."

Emperor Jingping nodded, which was what he was most worried about.

............

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince meets Xiao Zicheng." The eunuch carefully entered the warm room and reported.

Emperor Jingping raised his eyes, it was obvious that the two of them met at this time, which was somewhat beyond his expectations.

"Prince."

After a while, Zhu Ying and Xiao Zicheng came in one after another. Xiao Zicheng hated Zhu Ying the most, which was that this guy was whispering like he was not afraid of the world.

But once he saw his father, he would look like a deflated ball, and his face would always look like a good baby.

"My son, I've met my father."

Emperor Jingping nodded and looked at Zhu Ying, "No need to be too polite."

His eyes soon fell on Xiao Zicheng, "Xiao Qing family, how are you doing lately?"

Xiao Zicheng immediately bowed to the ground without hesitation:

"My aunt Xiao Zicheng has seen Your Majesty, long live my emperor.

Your Majesty is still thinking about his humble ministers in his busy schedule. He is so grateful that he will never be able to repay his death.

When I thought of this, I suddenly felt that all five were burned, and I wish I could share your worries for Your Majesty.”

After Xiao Zicheng finished speaking, he fell to the ground again.

If you don’t hit someone with a smile, you don’t care about him. You can flatter him first and then talk about it.

Fame? Fame is nothing...

“…”

Emperor Jingping was shocked. It was common for ministers to flatter the emperor when they saw him, but it was the first time they saw him so exaggerated.

Zhang Hong's old face thrust, obviously he couldn't stand it.

Li Mingyang raised his head and looked at the beam of the room, looking like an old god. God knows what he was thinking in his heart.

Xie Bi widened his eyes. He had heard that Yong Yi Bo had a playboy son, and it was worthy of his reputation when he met today...

Emperor Jingping had to change the subject and said with a stern face: "If I remember correctly, the prince should be listening to the lecture at the palace school at this time, right?"

Zhu Ying's face turned pale when she heard this, and hesitated for a long time and couldn't speak:

"Son minister...son minister..."

Xiao Zicheng saw that his son had no explanation for a long time, and Emperor Jingping's face gradually became gloomy.

Knowing that if they couldn't get straight to the point, they were afraid that they would be beaten, so they hurriedly said:

"Your Highness the Crown Prince was worried when he heard the plague in Kyoto. He searched through ancient medical books and finally got a way to solve the danger in Kyoto!"

Emperor Jingping subconsciously said in surprise:
Chapter completed!
