”Zuo Wei has been sent back to the government. She has nothing to do with me. I have only you.”

Xiao Mo explains in a hurry, he knows that Zuo Wei is a knot in her heart, but this is actually a misunderstanding.

”Oh.”

She nodded suspiciously, thinking: in the future, we must educate Jin Heng into a cold man who can't get close to any woman except her sweetheart, so as to avoid any trouble because of jealousy.

Xiao Mo looked down at their hands, thin lips and light hook.

They were just beginning to have a bit of affection.

Suddenly, Shen Zhu rushed in, looking flustered.

”Sister, no!”

Panting, she came to them and said, ”there is a plague in the south of the Yangtze River. A large area of the city is closed. There is no news from the strong wind.”

Although she had expected that there would be a plague and let the wind take the medicine, she did not expect that the plague was so serious that the dead could not be counted. It was said that the people who sent letters to Beijing also began to have a fever and died before the imperial doctor passed by.

”So fast?”

Xiao Mo frowned. He didn't hear the news before. Could it be that the local officials didn't report back?

”Yes, this plague is very strange. I'm afraid I don't have enough medicine for gout, just in case...”

Shen Zhu bit his lip. After hearing about the messenger, he was worried about the wind

”The general plague will not be so severe unless...”

Mu Xiangsi and Xiao Mo look at each other. It seems that they want to go together.

”You mean, artificial?”

Shen Zhu said in a trembling voice.

”It's possible, but I'm not sure. As for the gale, you don't have to worry. He'll be fine.”

Xiao Mo said slowly, the wind has always been considerate, the possibility of an accident is very small.

”We have to wait for the news.”

Shen Zhu frowned and sat down on the chair, hoping that his medicine would work, at least to protect the wind.

Mu Xiangsi looks at Shen Zhu anxiously, only to find that Xiao Mo's palm is sweating a little.

She shook his hand, thinking: he should not be so sure, plague is not human, gale and people fighting, most likely will not lose, but in the face of natural and man-made disasters, it is just an ordinary person.

……

On the other side, the prime minister's office.

Biyun saw the old prime minister came back from the palace with a bitter face, and quickly made a cup of tea and brought it into the study.

When Lao Cheng saw his granddaughter coming, he looked even worse.

”What's the matter, grandfather?”

Biyun asked, put the cup on the table, see his forehead sweating, must really have a big deal.

”Biyun, calm down. Listen to my grandfather. There's a plague in the south of the Yangtze River. The emperor has ordered local officers and soldiers to seal up several cities with serious plague.”

The old prime minister said feebly that since ancient times, it has been common for emperors to do such things.

But he knew that the wind had gone to Jiangnan. If there was an accident, his granddaughter didn't know what would happen.

”Wasn't it all right the other day? How come so soon... ”

Biyun said in a panic, it's not unusual to seal the city, but in the past, when the plague just came out, the imperial court would send people to the city. Now how can the city be sealed suddenly? No need to treat it?

”I don't know. This plague is coming. There's no way.”

The old Prime Minister sighed and asked, ”do you have any connection with the wind?”

”There was another letter three days ago...”

Biyun is so flustered that she thinks of the agreement she made with gale that a letter should be sent to ensure safety in two days. Now it's one day late.
