Dressed as Rebel Regent

Chapter 35 The Plague

Tang Ziyu didn't know what was wrong with him. In short, he felt very uncomfortable seeing Lan Du so close to Nanke.

"My lord, Qilixiang is here." Ning Jiu said suddenly, having already found Mixiang.

Lan Du walked over slowly, it was just a small piece of Qilixiang, which had not been completely burned, but this tiny amount could avoid poisoning as long as the window was opened.

"It seems that the people who use the poison don't understand the toxicity, or maybe they didn't want to hurt people." Ning Jiu stuck the incense ash with her hands, and said to Landu: "Just this little Qilixiang will dissipate soon. People can't fall asleep for very long."

The window was pasted with paper, and Qilixiang was inserted through the paper-pasted window. Landu looked at the small hole that had been pierced, and his eyes suddenly became fixed.

Ning Jiu's expression changed slightly, "My lord..."

Lan Du raised his hand to interrupt him, signaling Ning Jiu to wake Nan Ke up.

"Hmm." Nan Ke got up from the bed, rubbed his aching head in a daze, and asked, "Why are you all in my room?"

"You've been poisoned." Tang Ziyu looked at Nan Ke, stood in front of Lan Du and said to him, "Someone is going to kill you."

"What?" The already pale face became even more ugly at this time, Nan Ke looked at the regent for help, "My lord, please help me, it must be those assassins!"

"Has anyone been to your room before?" Landu asked him.

"No?"

"you sure?"

Nan Ke nodded, and said with certainty: "After I got back to the room, I lay on the bed. After lying down for a while, I felt a little sleepy, so I fell asleep. No one came to my room during that time."

"How long is a while?"

"About a quarter of an hour."

Nan Ke responded quickly, but Lan Du's face was not good-looking, and he said to Ningjiu: "Take him to the yamen, and let the yamen help him find the murderer."

Ning Jiu responded, walked over and lifted Nan Ke up, Nan Ke was startled at first, then struggled after realizing it.

"I'm not going! I'm not going!" Nan Ke looked at Lan Du in a panic, reaching out to grab the other's clothes, but Tang Ziyu opened his hands, and could only say anxiously: "My lord, save me, the yamen can't keep me , I will die!"

Landu remained calm, as if the other party's life or death had nothing to do with him.

"My lord!"

"Let's go out." Lan Du dragged the little emperor out, Nan Ke was also dragged away by Ning Jiu, the noise got farther and farther away.

Although Tang Ziyu didn't like the contact between the two, he didn't expect Landu to be so indifferent. Looking at Nan Ke's figure being dragged away, he suddenly felt sad: "Uncle, the Yamen probably won't be able to keep him."

"I know."

"That……"

"I don't like people lying in front of me." Lan Du's tone was very cold, and he explained to Tang Ziyu: "Look at the small hole that was inserted, the incense was inserted from the room."

"From inside?" Tang Ziyu remembered that Nan Ke had said with certainty that no one else had entered the room before, but then asked, "But... what if it was inserted before him?"

"After Qilixiang was ignited, the poisoned person would fall asleep in less than half an hour, but he clearly said that it was a quarter of an hour later." The time was wrong, if it wasn't for Nan Ke's insanity and inaccurate judgment, then the other party was lying.

Either, an outsider has entered inside, and he is a top expert who can avoid the hidden guards of the inn; or, Nan Ke inserted it himself.

In Lan Du's view, the latter is the most likely. After all, the hidden guards from the palace can't be casually mixed in, so it's interesting that Nan Ke fainted himself.

Tang Ziyu also reacted, his face immediately became gloomy, "He lied to you!"

Landu's smile was very light, so he didn't ask any more questions. Whether Nan Ke was dead or alive had nothing to do with him.

"We're leaving here in three days."

Tang Ziyu knew that Lan Du didn't intend to continue the investigation, so he nodded in agreement. There was no need for them to protect a cheater.

In the afternoon, both Ningshuang and Lin Aoyu returned, and Qiye did not receive any missions related to Beiyueguo merchants, and never sold Qilixiang, and the grievances between Beiyueguo and the people of Binzhou did not seem to be like that Simple.

"It's not a conflict, it's a plague." Lin Aoyu's face was ugly, and he explained: "A plague broke out in Yanan. A businessman from Beiyue Kingdom fled here from Yanan. Unfortunately, he was infected. The governor ordered to kill more than 20 sick people in a row. Bring the plague under control, except for the infected Beiyue businessman, everyone else is from Binzhou."

As a result, the people of Binzhou City had a grudge against the merchants of Beiyue Kingdom, and those merchants gathered outside were said to have escaped from Yanan, and the city guards of Binzhou dared not let anyone in at all.

"Is there a plague?" Tang Ziyu was very nervous, "Uncle Emperor, let's not go there!"

"What? If there is a plague and you are worried about being infected, you just leave your people alone?" Landu didn't take the plague seriously. If it was really serious, he could even give the people some treatment.

Tang Ziyu looked at Landu in astonishment, why isn't the emperor afraid?

However, this seemed normal. After all, in Tang Ziyu's impression, the emperor's uncle was never afraid of anything.

But...that was the plague.

A real killing weapon, even if there are millions of troops, is not enough to fill it up, and even the more people die, the faster they will die.

"Do you dare to come with me?" Lan Du looked at Tang Ziyu, full of confidence: "This king will protect you well."

Tang Ziyu asked: "If I don't go, will the uncle still go?"

"of course."

Tang Ziyu gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll go."

Landu laughed. He admired Tang Ziyu's courage very much. He was indeed not afraid of the plague, but it didn't mean he didn't know what the plague represented in this era. It was a devil that people in this era could not fight against.

Lin Aoyu winked at Ningshuang, and the two walked aside, it was the first time they had a peaceful discussion: "Your Majesty can't go to Yanan."

"My lord can't go either." This time, Ningshuang and Lin Aoyu had exactly the same thought.

and so……

"Catch them back to the capital!" The two spoke in unison, in an incomparably tacit understanding.

It was the first time that Ningshuang gave Lin Aoyu an appreciative look, at least Lin Aoyu was quite reliable in protecting his master.

Ningshuang retreated to the side, and said to the owner of the inn in a deep voice: "While cooking the dishes later, put some perspiration medicine in it."

The innkeeper knew the importance and nodded immediately.

At this moment, the servant who was with Xie Yuan was taken upstairs by Xiaoer, respectfully bowed to Lan Du, and said: "My lord, Mr. Xie invites you to gather in the government office, the food and drinks are ready and waiting for you. "

"Okay." Lan Du raised his hand and said, "Lead the way ahead."

Seeing the prince leading the little emperor to eat the big family, Ningshuang and Lin Aoyu froze in place, and it took a while to recover and hurriedly chased after him.

The author has something to say: As the protagonist, how could he not have a golden finger?

But don't worry, the presence of the golden finger is not high, and it belongs to the category of occasional use.
