"I am just trying my best to seek benefits for the people."
"Once this cement road is completed, it will be a great joy for my Chang'an City. I am looking forward to it in my heart!" Li Chengqian sat on a small stool with a hint of pride on his face.
But there are also things that make Li Chengqian less happy.
That is, Zhao Chen actually sent someone to the palace with the emperor's letters.
In front of him, Li Chengqian, all the emperor's private warehouse was emptied.
Forty-million yuan, none of them remained.
When Li Chengqian thought of the empty emperor's private warehouse, he felt a little frightened.
He was wondering at the time how the emperor would have promised Zhao Chen to empty his private warehouse!
"Your Highness, I heard that the money used to build the cement road in Chang'an City actually comes from His Majesty's private warehouse."
"A total of 400,000 coins!"
Li Chengqian was thinking about this when he suddenly heard Fang Xuanling say this.
This made me feel a little nervous at that time!
Zhao Chen promised him to build cement roads for free for Chang'an City, but actually emptied the emperor's private warehouse?
Does the emperor know about this?
If the emperor knew about it, it would be easy.
But if the emperor didn't know, he thought that Li Chengqian used the emperor's private treasury money to build this cement road and win over the hearts of the people.
That emperor was so angry that he killed himself?
Four hundred thousand coins.
The private warehouse has been emptied!
The emperor lost his advantage and lost 400,000 yuan, which made him Li Chengqian successful?
Li Chengqian didn't think the emperor would pretend that nothing happened.
In just a moment, cold sweat slid down from Li Chengqian's back.
"Fang Xiang, does the money for building roads really come from the father's private warehouse?" Li Chengqian was a little unwilling.
Once the money is paid out by the emperor's private treasury.
He, Li Chengqian, dares to be greedy for this merit?
If he dares to compete with the emperor for this merit, would the emperor spare him easily?
"It should be." Fang Xuanling nodded.
When he received the news, he also felt that Li Chengqian had cheated Zhao Chen.
It is estimated that Zhao Chen had expected Li Chengqian to ask him to build roads for Chang'an City.
So I got from the emperor early, and I don’t know why I asked the emperor to take out all the money in the private treasury and use it to build roads for Chang'an City!
Then he pretended to agree to Li Chengqian's request.
In fact, the money for building the road was paid out by the emperor’s private treasury!
It's scary, this kind of calculation!
Changsun Wuji seemed to understand why Zhao Chen agreed so readily that day.
Without even hesitating, he promised to build a cement road for Chang'an for free.
This is not free, it is obvious that I took the emperor's money to build this road.
Changsun Wuji was even thinking.
Is the emperor in Wannian County? The emperor has actually said that he would use the money from the private warehouse to build a cement road?
Then Zhao Chen took advantage of it.
Li Chengqian's face looked extremely ugly at this moment.
He found himself, as if he had been playing tricks on Zhao Chen again!
Zhao Chen did nothing, so he asked himself to apologize to Li Ke.
Now, even Li Chengqian dared not take the credit for the road construction.
"Bastard!" Li Chengqian said.
The ministers bowed their heads one after another, not daring to respond.
"Transfer the orders of this palace..."
"Your Highness, there is news that there is a plague in Wannian County." A voice sounded on the Tai Chi Hall.
...
"Mr. County Magistrate!"
"The county magistrate saves us, we really don't want to die!"
"The county magistrate let us leave. Stay here and we will all die!"
"If I really want to die, please let my little kid leave, he must live."
As soon as Zhao Chen got off the horse, he was surrounded by a group of people.
Everyone looks like begging.
Someone even knelt on the ground.
"Turn them all aside, no one is allowed to approach, go back and ask someone to prepare a tent here, no one is allowed to enter and exit!" Zhao Chen frowned.
Plague is not that simple.
Moreover, Zhao Chen doesn’t know what kind of plague this is.
Qin Huaiyu took the order and drove all the people away with the yamen runners.
The people cried and scolded behind their backs, and Zhao Chen thought they didn't hear it.
Looking at the few people lying in front of him, Zhao Chen hesitated for a moment.
"Zhao Chen, what are you going to do?" As soon as Li Shimin arrived, he saw Zhao Chen going forward, and was shocked.
He hurriedly jumped off the horse, rushed to Zhao Chen, and grabbed his arm.
"Go and see what kind of plague is, and prepare to save people!" Zhao Chen turned around and said to Li Shimin.
If the plague is not controlled, no one can escape it if it spreads.
When the plague spreads completely, I don’t know how many people will die.
Zhao Chen was originally unwilling to care about it, but what should he do if the people around him accidentally get infected with the plague?
"No, you can't get over." Li Shimin didn't let go at all.
How could he feel assured that Zhao Chen would take this risk?
This is a plague.
If something really happened to Zhao Chen, what should he do?
Who can save Zhao Chen?
"Zhao Chen, listen to Your Majesty, you really can't go. I'll help you see." Wei Zheng and Zhao Chen advised, and as he said that he wanted to go forward.
"You don't know anything, what's the point of going!" Zhao Chen frowned and shouted.
"But……"
"Get a wet cloth." Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo behind him shouted.
Cheng Chumo found a wet cloth and handed it to Zhao Chen.
Then Zhao Chen covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth, broke free from Li Shimin's hand, and walked forward.
"Zhao Chen..." Li Shimin shouted anxiously.
Zhao Chen walked forward and took a few steps to the people lying on the ground.
Then he saw the man lying on the ground, with a pale face, a body full of pustules and blisters.
Just a glance, Zhao Chen came back immediately.
"How about it?"
"What kind of plague is it?"
"How are you doing yourself!"
Li Shimin and several others asked at the same time.
"It's smallpox!" Zhao Chen said.
"Smallopsis? How could it be smallpox!" Li Shimin's face became extremely ugly at that time.
Smallpox disease occurs inexplicably.
And when smallpox was first infected, there was no movement.
I have to wait for a few days before I can react.
Smallpox can be transmitted through sneezing, coughing, and even breathing.
In just a few days, I don’t know how many people have been infected.
There are probably not many of these people who have not been infected.
"You guys get out of here quickly." Zhao Chen and Li Shimin said.
If you stay here again, you may be infected.
Once this kind of smallpox is spread, it will be impossible to control it.
"You leave with me!" Li Shimin would not leave Zhao Chen alone here.
Li Shimin knew smallpox and the horror of this plague.
Once you are really infected, you can basically wait to die!
How could Zhao Chen stay here?
"What should they do?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Shimin and said lightly.
Li Shimin didn't look back, staring at Zhao Chen in a daze and said, "You are more important than them."
"Human lives are the same. I will stay here and have a way to save their lives." Zhao Chen waved his hand and said lightly.
"Then I will stay here too. I will not leave you alone, and your aunt will not agree!" Li Shimin said slowly.
Chapter completed!
