Mask of Rebirth

"what?"

"I'll go with you! With this king watching, he wouldn't dare to play any tricks!"

The IQ of a man in love is definitely negative!Wei Ziyang has a deep understanding of this, because he is so smart that he didn't expect this. "That's right, it's fine to go together!...You have already planned this?"

"I expected the scene you saw today. You must go this time! So... the king has made some arrangements."

"Then why am I talking to you for so long?"

Qin Mu got up and stretched his waist, "It's getting late, let's go back to the room." He pulled Wei Ziyang up with one hand and hugged him, "Tell me what the Moon Palace looks like later."

"I'll ask you one more thing. Didn't you specially arrange that scene during the day?"

Qin Mu was very surprised that he would ask such a question, "In your words, am I full and have nothing to do?"...

Wei Ziyang already regretted what he said to Qin Mu. Facts have proved that our prince’s curiosity is too strong. He dragged Wei Ziyang to keep him from sleeping all night, asking questions like a curious baby. Not counting, knowing that Wei Ziyang can draw, he simply dragged him out of bed to draw for himself.

High-rise buildings, cars and airplanes are vividly displayed on the paper, Qin Mu's heart is surging, and Wei Ziyang's sleepy eyelids are twitching.

Wei Ziyang couldn't remember when he fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already dark outside, and the carriage under him was staggering on the mountain road, followed by more than a hundred guards.

The interior decoration of the carriage is resplendent and resplendent, quite royal.This is the prince's Luanjia, Wei Ziyang recognized it, but it was the first time he was lucky enough to sit on it.The weather in early spring is really cold, but the car is full of warmth. There are five or six heaters on all sides, and you will sweat with your clothes open.

"Are you awake?" Qin Mu leaned on the soft chair beside him, holding those drawing papers in his hand like a baby, staring at them intently.

"Where is this going?"

"Chifeng!"

"Ah, so fast? Why didn't I hear you yesterday?"

"It was a temporary decision. I received a secret report this morning, and there seems to be some changes in Chifeng City. If things change, it's better to go early. I didn't call you when I saw that you were sleeping soundly."

"What time is it?"

"It's already you hour, you slept all day." Qin Mu approached with a handsome face, and asked with a smile, "Are you hungry?"

"Why this expression, what do you want?"

"No, I'm just asking if you're hungry."

Is it that simple? "Not hungry."

"Not hungry! Then come and tell me about this plane."

Again?Wei Ziyang was almost overwhelmed by his curiosity, "Then I'm still hungry."

Qin Mu nodded, "After sleeping all day, I guess you should be hungry." After speaking, he raised the door curtain and shouted to the people outside, "Bring some food here...Let's chat while eating."

Wei Ziyang was completely at a loss. He put his forehead on one hand and smiled wryly, "My lord's thirst for knowledge is really too strong. If you were born in our era, you would definitely be a top student."

"Straight A student?"

"Comment, praise you for your thirst for knowledge. But can we stop talking about that? We'll talk about it later." The actual situation is that he doesn't know the principle of those things, and Qin Mu wants to get to the bottom of it, from the outer metal to the shield. What is the windshield, the space structure inside, the material of the seat, and finally the weight of the aircraft is calculated, and then the question arises, how does such a heavy thing fly up.Aerodynamic flight, then, what is aerodynamic flight!

For the first time, Wei Ziyang felt that he had read too little.

The distance from Shoucheng to Chifeng is only two days, and after dawn, the iron-fortified Chifeng City is within sight.

The city is about three feet high, and even the city gate made of fine iron is more than two feet high, which looks majestic. The wide moat with a ladder to the sky has been pulled up at this time, and no one is allowed to pass through.

The defenders at the city gate had already seen the person coming, and the first thing they said was to ask, "Excuse me, is Qin Guozheng's leader Wei Ziyang, Mr. Wei coming?"

"Our Ninth Prince and Lord Wei have arrived in person, so hurry up and communicate." The guards got the letter of approval and rushed to communicate.

The strange thing is that after waiting for a long time, no one came out to greet him. "What the hell is Lu Yang doing?"

"My lord, you said yesterday that there was movement in Chifeng City? Could it be that Lu Yang wants to start a war again?"

"It's not clear yet. In short, let's play by ear."

With a bang, the tall Tongtian Bridge slowly began to fall, and the thick iron chains made a heavy metal sound.When he was able to look directly at the city gate, Wei Ziyang saw that the city gate, which was supposed to be wide open to welcome visitors, was tightly closed. Only a few soldiers opened the small gate on the side, and then hurriedly retreated in.

"What does this mean? Could it be that our lord is going to go astray? It's unreasonable!" Even the guards at the side felt that they were too negligent, so they yelled.Immediately afterwards, the guards behind him began to discuss in a few words.

Wei Ziyang looked at Qin Mu, turned his head and gave the crowd a wink, and the crowd fell silent instantly.

"What do you think?"

Lu Yang would not do this. Although he is a hateful person, he still pays attention to etiquette, "Lu country is also considered a state of etiquette, so he would not do this. I guess it is because the soldiers guarding the city have resentment towards us and deliberately gave us embarrassing."

Before he finished speaking, Wei Ziyang was startled suddenly, and Lu Yang went out to greet him in person with two people with him.Although he was far away and he was wearing casual clothes, Wei Ziyang recognized him at a glance.

There is a moat in the middle, Lu Yang is standing on the other side of the bridge, and Wei Ziyang is standing on the other side of the bridge, their eyes are facing each other, so many words are in their eyes.Wei Ziyang always felt that he had forgotten about Lu Yang, and he would not feel anything when he saw him again, but he never expected that the moment he saw him, he would feel so uncomfortable in his heart, and his chest was congested.

After standing for a long time, Lu Yang turned his head and gave the little official beside him a wink. The man bowed his head and said yes, and walked over slowly with an imperial decree in his hand. He stopped in the middle of the bridge, "Send me the imperial edict, Please excuse me for not being able to have an interview with your country's envoy for the inconvenience today. May I ask who is Mr. Wei?"

Wei Ziyang looked at Qin Mu, gave him a reassuring look, and took two steps forward, "I am!"

"The letter of surrender is here, and the lower officials put it here, please trouble Mr. Wei to come and pick it up in person."

Now that there is no negotiation, Lu Yang actually wrote the letter of surrender so happily?How can it be?And I have to go get it myself. Could it be that he set up some kind of ambush? "what do you mean?"

The little official bent down and gave a salute, "Returning to Mr. Wei, to be honest, we may have contracted the disease. It is really inconvenient to get close. I can't present it in person because I am afraid that the disease will be passed on to everyone. I hope Mr. Wei will forgive me." .”

"What? Plague?" Isn't that the plague?No wonder, no wonder just now I felt that the two officials were dressed strangely. They were wearing official uniforms with cloth covering their faces, tightly covering their mouths and noses.

Hearing this, everyone was shocked!

Wei Ziyang jumped off his horse and was about to walk over, but was grabbed by Qin Mu, "There may be fraud! I'll let you go!"

"it is good!"

Wei Ziyang didn't care if it was a trap set by Lu Yang, he walked quickly to the middle of the bridge, picked up the imperial decree and read it roughly.It was indeed a letter of surrender, and the payment was stamped with a big seal, and the compensation and food and grass were still reasonable, and it could even be said to be generous.

"Master Wei!" Wei Ziyang looked up at the sound, the man was standing against the sun, with a gentle smile on his face. "I have passed the imperial decree back to the court, and the food will be delivered in a few days!"

"Lu Yang!" As soon as he spoke, the rest of the words got stuck in his throat and he couldn't speak.

"It's just that the retreat of the army needs to be postponed. Now that the epidemic is rampant in the city, if the city gate is opened wide, it may affect the people outside the city. I also ask the Ninth Prince and Lord Wei to allow a period of time."

If it is true, Lu Yang's consideration is indeed thorough enough. If the lost land is recovered at this time and the Lu country retreats, the plague may soon spread to the whole country, and it is even very likely that even the Lu country will suffer. "It's only natural. The emperor is thoughtful. This king will personally write a letter to the emperor to clarify this matter."

Lu Yang nodded, covered his mouth and coughed a few times, and took the opportunity to secretly wipe the corners of his eyes.Forget it, looking at him one more time will make my heart ache even more. "Everyone, please go back now." After speaking, he turned around.

"Lu Yang!" Wei Ziyang blurted out, he even forgot his identity and position, "Are you also infected?"

Lu Yang's heart ached, and tears flowed down immediately, "I'm sorry for what happened in the past... I can see you again today, and I will die without regret."

The man left after leaving this last sentence, his footsteps were even a little hurried, as if stepping on Wei Ziyang's heart step by step, stepping away the wound that had scabbed a long time ago.

Today, he came to say goodbye to me!

Yes, isn't this the result I want!

"Let's go."

Wei Ziyang nodded numbly, walked down the bridge step by step, got into the carriage instead of riding a horse, and sat there without saying a word since then.

"Take the letter, Ziyang, you have contributed a lot. I will write a letter and reward you with the emperor." Qin Mu looked at Wei Ziyang's expressionless face, and couldn't help sighing, "I can start the day after tomorrow. Are you back in the capital of Qin, or do you want to stay for a while, and go to Nanyang with me when the imperial decree comes down?"

Wei Ziyang didn't seem to have heard his words, his eyes were still empty, and he nodded, maybe he didn't care too much.

"Are you worried about the people in Chifeng City? Don't worry, I will send a batch of medicinal materials and send a few imperial physicians there." Qin Mu coughed twice in embarrassment, but couldn't get an answer, and finally told him the truth. "I observed it just now, and the official has a red rash on his wrist, which may be the legendary black plague."

Wei Ziyang finally reacted, his shoulders trembled slightly, "Can it be cured?"

"Six years ago, this disease spread widely in the Tianshan Mountains of Meng State. I heard... there is no cure at all."

"those people......"

"Because the epidemic spread too fast and was difficult to control, the emperor of Meng finally had to order...to massacre the city!"
