One Step to The End

The imperial envoy arrived, and the people thought that Zhao Guanren should know. The officials thought that the black guards would be assembled, including Song Chizhu, but no one notified him, and everyone guessed wrong. .

The imperial envoy was not the commander of the Beijing Superintendent's guard field. Not only was he not an imperial envoy, he did not come with the regiment, and even the deputy commander of the black and white guards did not come.

"Crap! Why is Xia Shoufu..."

Chen Qianhu stood in the city gate and sweated, and Ouyang Qianhu also solemnly said: "This is something serious. The three commanders made none of the adults come, but the flying pigeon sent and received with us as usual, indicating that the Lord is no longer there. Trust us in the Beijing Supervisory Field, and we must investigate thoroughly from the source!"

"My imperial commission is here!"

A young **** screamed from his voice, and all the officials and people in Wuyangyang knelt on the ground. First, a group of imperial soldiers armed with spears fired in, followed by the accompanying officials on horseback, and then the long convoy and heavy vehicles. Armoured Cavalry.

"Female, female officer?"

Chen Qianhu glanced at him and almost ascended to heaven. There were several court ladies accompanying a carriage, and the leader was still a senior court lady.

"A prince is here!"

Ouyang Qianhu, who had always been deep in a cold sweat, lay down on the ground and whispered: "The prince will never be with the Lord Shoufu. The person who comes is afraid that he will be the Prince Duan, the in-laws of the Bian family. The second daughter of the Prince Duan has been living in the palace since she was a child. Only qualified to use female officials!"

"I see……"

Chen Qianhu whispered: "The emperor is extremely cautious about this matter. This is for Xia Shoufu and Prince Duan to supervise each other. It seems that the rumors are not false!"

"Black and white double guards! Hearing..."

The curtains of a carriage were lifted, and a gray-haired old man with a goatee was very gentle, but he shouted in full aura: "Go ahead! Don't disturb the people in the city and go straight to the dead. The place where the plague first appeared!"

"Lead!"

Two thousand households clasped their fists and yelled at the same time, and hurriedly led the flag guards to open the way. The officials of Lantai County also trot with them. Their faces were ugly. Everyone knew that such a big battle would cause major events. Don’t cut them. A group of people returned to Beijing with no face.

"The imperial commissioner is here, get out of the way..."

The people were curiously onlookers. The imperial army quickly separated from the left and right, and raised their spears to prevent trespassing. The cavalry and baggage drove straight to the army. Only the accompanying officials’ carriage stopped in the middle of the road. Middle-aged man in a dragon robe.

That's right!

The burly middle-aged man wears dragon robes. The royal relatives of Dashun can wear dragon robes, but there are strict restrictions on the color. At present, many officials recognize that it is the fourth who has inspected Ningzhou many times. Prince-Prince Duan!

"Old Ge! The boats and cars are strained, slow down..."

Prince Duan stepped forward and personally helped Xia Shoufu, but this was obviously just a polite way. Xia Shoufu's bones looked tough, but his expression was very serious. He went directly to the place where the incident happened. The officials were all Followed by.

"Where is the prefect of Lantai? What is this doing..."

Xia Shoufu stood on the side of the road with his back on his back. Almost all around the place where the incident occurred was emptied. The excavated pavement has been completely restored and the house is being rebuilt. However, many places are surrounded by wooden planks, and the exposed ditches are full of plant ash.

"His Royal Highness! Old Ge! Xiaguan Lantai County Prefect Song Chizhu..."

Song Chizhu immediately ran over to salute and said, "Zhao Yunxuan, the director of epidemic prevention in our county, dug up all the poisonous water and poisonous mud, and baked it at high temperature after being exposed to the sun for nine days. In order to prevent the poisonous water from gasifying, it was surrounded by wooden boards. Bluestone is to prevent the leakage of poisonous water and damage the river!"

"Director of Epidemic Prevention? What is the director, where is Zhao Yunxuan now..."

Prince Duan turned his head to look at him, and Song Chizhu quickly replied: "The director is the main responsible person, and he alone is in charge of all matters. As for where Mr. Zhao is now... I don't know where the next official is! He holds several positions. But the chief position is still the black guard superintendent flag!"

"I don't know? Where is Zhao Yunxuan..."

Xia Shoufu turned and pointed at Chen Qianhu. Chen Qianhu could not answer for a moment with his mouth open, but Ouyang Qianhu knew that he hadn't deliberately notified Zhao Guanren, so as to defeat the imperial envoy's first impression of him.

"My lord! The next official is here, I'm here..."

Zhao Guanren suddenly ran over and ran over, wearing a belt while complaining: "Master Chen! I know you are sympathetic to your subordinates and I know that I can't easily take a half-day rest. But the commissioner came, and I have to climb over even if my leg is broken. !"

"Hehe~

Chen Qianhu smiled stiffly and said, "Master Zhao has suffered a lot lately. It's good to take a break. I believe Master Ge will not blame it!"

"Your Highness! Your sirs..."

Zhao Guanren smiled and said: "The first battle of the corpse plague epidemic in this county was successful. After the rectification, no living people were infected. The county government took the lead in raising donations and paid all the compensation to the victims. Now they are living and working in peace and contentment!"

"Master Zhao is a good official, a good official who makes decisions for the people..."

There were shouts from both sides of the street immediately, and the people clapped and shouted loudly. The frightened soldiers were in a commotion, thinking that the people were about to rebel.

"Haha~"

Prince Duan smiled and said: "It sounds like Director Zhao has a high popularity, and the people clap their hands together are also very tacit, but your so-called no live infection, is it because there are still dead people infected?"

"Exactly! Three corpses were cheated..."

Zhao Guanren reluctantly said: "The last few days it rained heavily, the water in the purification pond overflowed and broke through the impervious ditch and entered the mass graves. Three corpses broke out of the ground and scared an old man who was passing by. Fortunately, I was black. Wei was prepared early and shot and killed three corpses in time!"

"Oh?"

Xia Shoufu frowned and said, "This corpse plague is so vigorous that it can bring the dead back to life. The official thought that the corpse was just an infected living person!"

"The dead are not as fierce as they are alive. The corpse of a living person will grow up instead of retreating. The dead is just an ordinary person..."

Zhao Guanren folded his hands and smiled and said: "Masters! If you want to understand the whole story, please move to the Xie family mansion and listen to the official. The people in the city are still waiting to go to the county office to collect salt. Let's stay here together, I'm afraid it will be night. I can't finish sending out salt!"

"Salt?"

Prince Duan was surprised: "Where did your Lantai salt come from? Now this salt is in demand even on both sides of Yanghuai. Since you can distribute it to the people, shouldn't it be a lot?"

"I don't know the exact number, so I have to ask Song Zhixian..."

Zhao Guanren smiled and said: "Song Master is a senior parent official in this county. He saw that salt can cure poisons. He expected that the price of salt would rise, and finally suffered the common people. In order to stabilize the salt price, he ordered people to buy salt in large quantities in advance. He has a lot of accounts, and the shopkeeper Han is chasing him every day!"

"!!!"

Song Chizhu suddenly shook his whole body, only to feel a puff of smoke from Tianlinggai. By virtue of his long-term struggle with Zhao Guanren, he knew that his opportunity was coming, and Zhao Guanren gave him a great contribution.

"Shopkeeper Han! Come here quickly..."

Song Chizhu beckoned to Han Dongsheng and introduced: "His Royal Highness! Elder Ge! This is the inventor of anti-epidemic masks and alcohol, Han Dongsheng, the owner of Han Ji, and the next official entrusted him to buy salt for the county, the shopkeeper Han. ! How much salt has been purchased at present?"

"Return to sirs!"

Han Dongsheng nervously rubbed his hands and said: "The villain also uses refined salt to make masks. I am worried that Mr. Zhao is not enough to cure the poison, so his own shop also stocks some. The salt dealer came to buy half and half free, accidentally bought more. It is estimated that the entire Ningzhou Prefecture will last for half a year!"

"So many?"

The prince and Shoufu were shocked, and the surrounding officials were also shocked. The entire Dashun Dynasty and even outside the Guan were short of salt. As a result, a lot of guys popped out. If they want to sell at the current price, I am afraid that Han Dongsheng will be able to sell it at the current price. Zi jumped to the throne of the richest man.

"Brother Chen!"

Ouyang Qianhu whispered to Chen Qianhu: "Song was eager to find salt just after eating pigs. Suddenly a mountain of salt was delivered to him. This is clearly Zhao Yunxuan's trick. You should wear small shoes for him, otherwise it would be so great. How can I not have your share?"

"Huh~"

Chen Qianhu said coldly, "I really underestimated this guy, and played such a big game of chess behind my back!"

"Shopkeeper Han!"

Xia Shoufu said loudly: "You will add 30% to the price of your salt, the official security, and I will immediately send people to the salt-deficient states and counties. It is related to the safety of our people. I hope you can understand!"

"The villain dare not take advantage of others..."

Shopkeeper Han bowed and said, "My lord, you don't have to add any money, and the manpower will be paid for by the villain. I only hope that I can do a little bit for me and ease the immediate urgency!"

"Good good!"

Xia Shoufu smiled heartily: "It is really a blessing for me to have such a good person as the shopkeeper Han, and the prefect of Lantai. As a low-level parent, you have a long-term vision and worry about the country and the people. Report the truth to the sage, two good students awards!"

"Master Xie Shoufu has the gold medal. He didn't dare to take credit for the next official, but just did his own duties..."

Song Chizhu bowed in excitement. The officials of the prefecture and county all reddened with envy. They naturally understood what was going on. If Zhao Guanren had not given him a hand, I’m afraid there would be no chance in this life. Show your face in front of the emperor.

"Director Zhao!"

Prince Duan suddenly said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "I heard that the Bian’s family who had a marriage contract with my son has been arrested by the two guards. As the director of epidemic prevention, you should have the responsibility to trace the source of the corpse plague. Is this corpse plague true? Do disasters cause Bian's family?"

"..."

Many people shrank their necks on the spot, secretly squeezing a sweat for Zhao Guanren. If this terrible question is not answered well, Prince Duan will definitely settle the account after Autumn.

"Back to Your Highness! There is an outer house in Bian's Mansion, which is where the corpse poison originated..."

Zhao Guanren folded his hands and said: "However, the lower official is just a small superintendent flag, and he does not have the authority to investigate and prosecute senior officials. The lower official has compiled the clues collected into a book and handed over all the clues to the more senior white guards. Your Royal Highness can directly inquire the white guards. Thousand households, Lord Ouyang!"

What a treacherous thing!

All the white guards cursed secretly at the same time. Zhao Guanren performed his due diligence, but he threw the offense to them, and this guy did hand in the materials and made a triplicate. The white guards wanted to deny the capital. no.

"Brother Ouyang! You can answer after you think about it..."

Chen Qianhu smiled yinly, and swiftly stepped aside two steps. Ouyang Qianhu reacted at once. This grandson was actually singing a double song with Zhao Guanren, deliberately overcasting their white guards.
