General regrets the original [rebirth]

I promised to go to the capital to see you when the matter is over, but now, I broke my promise again.

On the edge of a small town that is only a hundred miles away from the capital, it takes another day to reach the capital.

This is probably the closest she has been to Min Yu'an in half a year, so close that it only takes one day to see her.

What kind of smile will she show?Will she be happy?

Xiao Qi didn't know about these.

She chose another direction.

Xiao Qi rode his horse and whipped his whip, and his whole body lay on the horse's back, forming a streamlined line.The horses raised their hooves and galloped, and the team of dozens of horses was mighty. The sun rose in summer, and a layer of fine beads of sweat floated from her high collar.

In order to conceal her identity and minimize the difference from others, the high-necked shirt she always wears is tightly wrapped even in summer.

She looked straight ahead, squinted her eyes to block the wind and sand, her lower lip was tightly pressed, and she didn't wear a mask because of the hot weather, so the scars on the side of her face were clearly visible.After leaving Min Yu'an for half a year, she seemed to be quite reticent.

The people behind her closely followed her steps in unison, and there were only footprints and dust left by the horseshoes.

The front is full of greenery, the farmland is thick, some people are bending over to work, and the sky is incredible blue.

A very peaceful and happy scene.

It's hard to imagine what a miserable scene in Duye City hundreds of miles away.

Xiao Qi inevitably thought of Min Yu'an.

I haven't seen her for half a year, so I don't know how she has changed or how she is doing.

She couldn't help laughing at herself for worrying too much, how could the well-clothed and well-fed in the palace have a bad life?Loved by the emperor, loved by the elder brother, the little princess must be better than when she was in the northwest.

Don't worry about it all the time.

See you again when I come back.

At that time, whatever you want is up to you.

***

The emperor really cared about Min Yu'an.

For this only daughter, there is no major matter related to the life and death of the country, so he can be regarded as a loving father.

I hope that my daughter will marry a good man, that her husband will treat her well, and that he will prepare surprises for her.

Xiao Qi, this is the surprise.

Xiao Qi went to the memorial early on to report back with the emperor, and he agreed.

Although Min Yu'an was happy in front of him, he could still see the loneliness in his eyes.It's good to have someone to cheer her up.

The emperor has been hiding the news, wanting to surprise Min Yu'an.

But in the end, Xiao Qi spontaneously ran to Duye City again.

Surprise turned to fright.

The matter in Duye City was a big mess, and the court officials had been arguing about it for several days, but they couldn't come up with a regulation.The emperor was so worried that several pimples appeared on the corners of his mouth.

Now someone is willing to solve his serious problem for him, but it brings another problem-how to explain to his daughter?

The emperor thought for a long time, and summoned Min Yu'an into the palace, intending to talk to her about it.

Min Yu'an ate the unique cakes in the palace, and looked at his father who was said to have something important to say to her inexplicably.

The emperor stroked his short beard, and said, "An'er, don't worry, you listen to me." Afraid that she would be too excited, explain to her first, and then speak slowly.

Min Yu'an bit the pastry, thinking that it tastes good, he will go to the Imperial Dining Room later and ask for a recipe, he will try it when he goes back, and he can make it for Xiao Qi in the future, she likes sweet food, she will definitely like it.

Thinking of Xiao Qi in her heart, she didn't pay much attention to the emperor's words, and asked casually: "What?"

"My son-in-law, he has gone to Duye City."

The pastry fell to the ground, and the recipe and cooking were all forgotten.Min Yuanteng stood up and slapped the table, and the white and fat pastries were trampled under his feet.

Min Yu'an raised his voice to the emperor for the first time: "What is she doing there!"

Wouldn't it be nice to stay in Gaochang City?Go wild!

Don't know what's going on there? !

***

Duye City was originally a rich city, located in a traffic fortress, and there was an endless stream of people coming and going from south to north, but recently, it has become a place that everyone can't avoid.

In early May, heavy rain.

Heavy rain in summer is a normal thing. The rain falls, taking away the hot and dry temperature, leaving coolness and rain.

The children's favorite is the rainy day, all drenched in water, smiling at each other in the rain.Then he ran home, took off his wet clothes while being scolded by his mother, slept after eating, and had a good night's dream in the rare coolness of summer.

It’s too late.

The torrential rain has continued for more than ten days, bringing not only the coolness, but also the loss of livelihood.

The water level by the river skyrocketed, and the water inside overflowed, flooding all the farmland and warehouses.Once the food is soaked in water, it becomes uneatable.

Human beings are too powerless in the face of natural disasters, and a famine suddenly broke out in the affluent Duye City, and displaced people can be seen everywhere.The imperial court sent people to control the flood.

The matter of water control is being treated every year, but it has no effect.

It is nothing more than building dams, issuing disaster relief gold and the like.

But this time, it won't be so easy.

In late May, there were many sick people, and the medical center and pharmacy were overcrowded.

Then there's the plague.

No one knows where the plague came from, nor how to cure it.

After the great disaster, the great epidemic followed.

It is a natural disaster, but also a man-made disaster.

On the second day of June, there was great heat and the plague broke out.

The prefect of Duyecheng did a great thing: gather all the sick people and burn them all to death once and for all.

Although cruel, it is the only effective method.

But the soldiers in Duye City were all conscripted from the common people. Who can guarantee that their family members will not get sick?

To burn all the sick, their families must die too.

The family members of the trapped patients gathered together and formed a rebel army to fight against the defenders of Duye City, and no one would budge.

Deadlock so far.

***

Zhang Yunpei has been thinking of something for the past few days, but her brain seems to be useless. She searched through the historical records of previous dynasties, but couldn't find anything useful.

The courtiers couldn't think of a way, what would Xiao Qi do there!

Do you want to die? !

The incident in Duye City was full of turmoil, and no one in the capital knew about it.

The border is remote and the news is blocked, so no one knows.

Xiao Qi was at the border, how did he know about this? !

Is it...

Min Yu'an's eyes changed, his anxiety turned into disbelief, and he complained, "Father, you..."

As soon as she showed this expression on her raised daughter, the emperor knew what she was going to say, so he hurriedly interrupted her: "It has nothing to do with me, I didn't do it!"

Don't wrong me!

I will not harm my daughter!

The emperor explained: "He told me that he wanted to come back to see you, and I will agree."

"I was thinking, let me give you a surprise, so I didn't tell you in advance."

"Who knows that he heard people talking about Duye City on the way and ran away. He only gave me a seal, and I am afraid that he has already arrived in Duye City by this time. No, all the black and white letters he wrote are here, but I didn't force him to go."

The emperor was also very wronged, and I didn't do anything.

However, Min Yu'an didn't have time to answer his grievances. He took the booklet handed over by the emperor, opened it hastily, and read it intently.

Except for the emperor, the prince, and officials who specialize in dealing with this, no one can read the memorial.

Because it's a state secret.

But none of the two sitting here cared about this rule.In other words, this rule no longer applies to Min Yu'an.

She didn't do it for nothing in the past six months. The emperor shook his head regretfully more than once, asking why An'er is not a man?

Min Yu'an just smiled and said nothing.As long as she thinks about it, there is nothing she can't do.

Xiao Qi's brochure said that she would return to Beijing after she had finished dealing with the Duye City matter, please don't tell the emperor about this matter to Min Yu'an.

How could the emperor not say it?

He could see how much Min Yu'an attached importance to Xiao Qi, if Xiao Qi made a mistake, how sad would Min Yu'an be?

Min Yu'an threw the finished memorial on the table, pacing back and forth in a hurry.But my anxious mind was in chaos, and I didn't know what to do.

She stopped: "No, I have to find her. Go get her back."

The situation there is already critical.

The emperor wanted to send people to suppress it. The people in the capital either said that the elders in the family were critically ill and had to be filial, or they themselves complained that they were unwell and should not travel back and forth.

Of course, the emperor couldn't sit still and wait for death. He forcibly sent people there, but all of them returned without success. It should be said that none of them came back.

This time the plague was so strong that those who went there were sick and could not come back.

The prefect of Duye ordered people to seal the gate of the city, and no entry or exit was allowed.

There are precedents, even if the emperor ordered people to go there, they would not go if they were beaten to death.

Even if you resist the decree and don't respect it, at least you can leave a whole body.When I went to Duye City, as soon as the fire burned, everything was gone, and I didn't even have a thought about leaving it to my family.

The emperor said the established facts: "If she goes, she can't come back. The prefect of Duye will not let her come back."

"An'er, don't worry, I will send someone to support him, and he will be fine."

Min Yu'an was quick to think, and finally came up with a useful solution: "Father, you send an imperial doctor. Only a doctor can save her. Duye City needs a doctor!"

***

Just as the emperor expected, at this time, Xiao Qi had already arrived at the outskirts of Duye.

The distance to the city is only ten miles.

She stopped the horses and turned to the dozens of people following her: "It's still too late to go back now."

"If you don't leave now, you can only stay."

Everyone looked at each other, wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and licked their chapped lips——

"General, go in, we are not afraid."

"Fix it early and go home early, my mother is still waiting for me at home."

"Yeah, what are you doing whimpering?"

……

The soldiers guarding the city were not just a few people in an ordinary city. Hundreds of them wore leather armor and held spears in front of the door, preventing people from leaving.

Those inside want to come out, and those outside don't want to go in.

The guards looked at them and asked uncertainly, "Are you sure you want to go in?"

They nodded in unison.

He asked again: "Do you know what's going on inside? If you go in, you won't be able to get out."

Xiao Qi flashed his token: "I am Xiao Qi, the Zhonglang general appointed by His Majesty, and I was ordered to come to support."

"Just take these few people?"

Xiao Qi said nonsense without changing his face: "We will go first, and the rest of the support will arrive later." There is a fart support, but there is nothing.However, thinking that the emperor will send people here, it is impossible to really let them fend for themselves.

The leader looked at the token carefully, and after confirming that it was correct, he returned it to Xiao Qi: "Please, General Xiao, follow me to see the magistrate."

He looked at it and said, "Please get off your horses. The roads in the city are narrow and it is difficult for horses to pass."

A city without a place for horses to pass?

Didn't it mean that Duye City was originally a traffic fortress and extremely prosperous?

Everyone looked at each other, and they all saw the confusion in each other's eyes, but the doubts were doubts. Xiao Qi and the others naturally had no objection to such a trivial matter.
