Cheng Chun saw the panic in Shaoyao's eyes and quickly comforted him: "I'll probably ask you to testify. Don't be afraid. Just take care of yourself. That person is our Crown Prince. He is fair and will never wrongly accuse a good person."
of!"
Shaoyao's eyes were red, and she held onto Chengchun's hand tightly and refused to let go. She was sold to the court when she was very young. Although she did a job of making fun of people, she was also law-abiding. What a prison, what a government.
, they have never seen each other before, but now they are directly facing His Highness the Crown Prince. Anyone else would be scared.
After a long time, Shaoyao said cautiously: "Ah Chun, can you accompany me?"
Chengchun was silent for a while, then nodded: "Okay, I'll go with you!"
"Ah Chun, you are so kind!" Shaoyao held Cheng Chun's hand tightly.
"I'll go with you, but if His Highness the Crown Prince says I can't go in, you still have to go in alone. I'll wait for you outside. Just don't be afraid!" Cheng Chun patted Shaoyao's hand and stood up slowly.
Hongdou glanced at the half-eaten porridge in front of Chengchun, and quickly took two small pastries and put them in Chengchun's hands: "Madam, take some with you on the way, don't starve yourself!"
Chengchun looked at the cake stuffed in his hand, gave a piece of peony, and then accompanied him to the front hall.
Li Shufei and Hu Sheng were both imprisoned in the yamen dungeon. They had to go to the yamen by carriage, so when Xie Chengyin saw Cheng Chun in the front hall, he was a little surprised: "Are you going too?"
"Master, Sister Shaoyao has never been to that kind of place. She is scared to go alone. I will accompany her. If it is not convenient to talk, I will wait for you outside!" Cheng Chun saluted Xie Chengyin and then respectfully
Said respectfully.
Xie Chengyin looked at Cheng Chun with some helplessness: "Why, you have been there before she has been there? She is afraid, but you are not afraid anymore?"
Chengchun touched his nose with some guilt: "I'm scared too, but two people are better than one!"
"You are honest!" Xie Chengyin was amused by Cheng Chun's guilty look, "When you go later, I will always be there, so don't be too afraid. You found the account books. Let Shaoyao go, just to have some money."
It’s just a personal ID! If you’re not scared, just follow me in. If you’re scared, just wait outside!”
Chengchun quickly responded: "Thank you very much for your consideration!"
Xie Chengyin nodded and then got on the horse. Chengchun also quickly pulled Shaoyao onto the carriage.
After all, he was going to interrogate the prisoners in the cell, and Xie Chengyin didn't bring anyone with him. Apart from a personal guard, only Chengchun and Shaoyao were left.
When following Xie Chengyin into the dungeon, Cheng Chun, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help but ask: "Where is the crown prince? Why is he the only one going there?"
"Meng Shaoqing is busy, how can he have time to accompany me to a place like this!" Xie Chengyin laughed, "But there is good news, do you want to hear it?"
Cheng Chun raised his head and looked at Xie Chengyin in confusion: "Good news? Is there any good news under the current circumstances?"
It was probably because Chengchun's tone was so surprised that it made Xie Chengyin laugh. He turned back to look at Chengchun, and then said with a smile: "No one died from the plague in the camp yesterday. Is this good news?"
Chengchun was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "That's right, it doesn't matter!"
Seeing Cheng Chun's forced smile, Xie Chengyin laughed, and then said: "The imperial doctors have discovered that Qianghuo seems to have a miraculous effect on this disease. Those who have taken Qingwen Pills containing Qianghuo have shown signs of alleviating the symptoms."
Chengchun's eyes lit up: "Does that mean that the current plague will be solved soon?"
"That's more or less what it means. It's just that the dosage of Qianghuo has not been determined yet, so there is no way to determine the recipe, but we can still see hope!" Xie Chengyin seemed to be relieved, "The current situation is not as good as before.
You know how much better it is!”
After Chengchun heard the news, he also took a breath, and his whole state suddenly became active. Whether it was a landslide or a disaster, although it sounded scary, at least there was a way. The dam was destroyed.
We had to rebuild the dam, and there was no food. We moved around to adjust food, but the disaster relief money disappeared. We tried to find a way to get it back. But this plague, we knew it was there, but there was nothing we could do.
This strange panic, until Su Xubai was confirmed to be infected with the plague, completely broke out in her heart. The invisible and intangible fear completely surrounded her. This powerless fear was the most disturbing.
Fear.
The people guarding the dungeon were Meng Shaoqing's men. When they saw Xie Chengyin, they quickly got out of the way.
"Master, they all seem to know you? Do you often go to Meng Shizi's military camp?" Shaoyao looked at it and couldn't help but asked cautiously.
"The Queen Mother and Mrs. Meng have been close friends since they were young, and they are both cousins of the Xu family. When I was young, I accompanied Meng Shaoqing and suffered a lot of beatings from the Mrs. Meng family. They can be regarded as cousins who grew up together. They recognize each other.
I deserve it too!" Xie Chengyin thought of Meng Shaoqing's unruly look and couldn't help gritting his teeth, "Because of Meng Shaoqing, I don't know how many more beatings I received!"
Shaoyao and Chengchun quickly shut up, after all, this was not what they should hear.
When walking to the dungeon, Cheng Chun smelled a strong rancid smell from a distance, and Xie Chengyin also frowned: "What's going on?"
"Master Hu..."
"Don't be hesitant, just say it!" Xie Chengyin looked at the people around him coldly and said coldly.
"Master Hu seems to be crazy these days. When going to the toilet, he doesn't go to the toilet and always does it in the corner of the ground!" The guard guarding the dungeon said this with some difficulty.
Xie Chengyin frowned slightly: "Have you sent someone to look at it?"
"The doctor came to see him, but Mr. Hu never let him get close. Once the doctor wanted to walk over, he would grab anything around him, including his own... Anyway, he would try to beat the doctor." The guard.
He said somewhat helplessly.
Xie Chengyin raised his eyebrows. Just by listening to this, he probably thought of the tragic situation that day.
"But what the doctor means, Mr. Hu is probably fine, because his current behavior is just that although he looks crazy, he is actually just resisting. Most of the time, his words are relatively clear, so there is a high possibility that he is just pretending.
." The guard deliberately lowered his voice and said.
"Most of the so-called crazy people are those who have received a very serious blow and can't think about it for a while." Xie Chengyin laughed, "Since Hu Sheng dared to do these things, he naturally knew the outcome a long time ago, so how could it be possible?
