The first thousand three hundred and sixty-four chapters intentionally conceal
Li Du glanced at it and saw that it was a gift from a certain county magistrate. Although it was old, it was not an ornament he liked, so he said indifferently: "If the empress likes it, I will give it to you."
"That blue and white porcelain vase is exquisite and transparent..." He spent a lot of money to buy it!
"Also...send to you..."
"And this glass cup is also good!"
"Send to you..."
"This one too!"
"OK……"
Li Du's heart was bleeding and his eyes were about to burst, but he could only suppress his temper and dare not make a sound.
After all, there is the Seventh Prince watching behind him. He has never seen such a greedy person in his life!
Bai Yuxian: "..."
At this moment, he fully understood what Ye Fuxun wanted to do.
Recalling the words "cooperate" that Ye Fuxun whispered in his ear, Bai Yuxian waved his hand and signaled Wu Xin to go up and move things.
Whatever Ye Fuxun likes, he takes it directly without saying a word.
Ye Fuxun was a person with a unique vision. She could tell at a glance what was valuable and what was just decoration.
In just one cup of tea, the hall was almost empty.
Ye Fuxun returned to the dining table with satisfaction. After drinking a cup of tribute tea, he smiled and said, "Master Li knows current affairs and is a good official."
Li Du was already exhausted.
"Master Li, regarding the epidemic, is there any new progress on your side?" He Yuzong couldn't stand it any longer, so he had to interrupt.
Before Li Du could speak, Ye Fuxun seemed to have just remembered this matter and nodded: "Why don't we go to Mr. Li's study after dinner to talk."
Bai Yuxian looked at her cunning and bright fox-like eyes, and couldn't help but curl up the corner of her mouth.
"No need! I have already ordered people to sort out the plague matters and they will be sent up later!" Li Du was afraid of the seventh princess and quickly stopped her.
"Master Li, as the magistrate of Mingzhou, why do you know nothing about the plague?" Bai Yuxian suddenly spoke coldly and looked at Li Du with cold eyes.
Li Du stood up and replied: "The plague has not been controlled except for the county closures. Mingzhou is basically safe. This is the result of the official's personal investigation!"
The meal ended unhappily, but Ye Fuxun collected a lot of things and asked someone to sell them into money for future use.
Several people took the materials from the study room and compared them. They found that Li Du was still concealing the facts. However, they already knew that the source of the plague was in Fengxian County, so they decided to take a day off and go to Fengxian County.
"Why didn't the emperor just reassign that corrupt official?" Ye Fuxun returned to the room and looked directly at Bai Yuxian.
"Why didn't you consider this when you were robbing things?" Bai Yuxian raised his eyebrows.
Ye Fuxun said seriously: "I won't use this money to do bad things. I will let them go back to where they should go. And don't you have a dragon talisman? You can kill them first and then report them. What are you worried about?"
After all, the plague has cost people and money, and there are still many places where money is needed.
"Li Du has been the magistrate of Mingzhou for nearly ten years. The power here is deeply rooted. If it cannot be uprooted, there will only be endless troubles. It is better to keep it under your nose and keep an eye on it. As long as we are in Mingzhou for a day, he will be at peace.
This matter...take some time to figure out."
"The dossier the study gave us doesn't match what we know at all. I'm afraid Li Du deliberately concealed it."
"You can see it."
Ye Fuxun glared at Bai Yuxian. What time was it? There was still time to tease her.
Bai Yuxian took out another dossier without haste and handed it to Ye Fulun: "This is what I asked Lu Ming to investigate, about the source of the plague."
Two months ago, a woodcutter went hunting in the mountains. When he came back, he had a headache and a fever. He thought it was a minor illness and did not think of going to the hospital for treatment. Unexpectedly, he fell ill and did not go out for a few days. His neighbors noticed him when he opened the door.
People had died in the room, and there was a stench of corpses.
The people in the village knew that the man died of illness, so they buried him without reporting it to the official. Unexpectedly, a few days later, the entire village fell ill with a strange disease.
First there was pain in the limbs, then headache and fever, and then a red rash appeared on the skin, which would not go away, and people soon became weak, especially those who were close to the woodcutter's house, who died suddenly the fastest.
People infected with the disease will die within half a month at most. The most frightening thing is that the disease spreads silently without knowing how it is transmitted.
Finally, someone went to the yamen, but the people in the yamen didn't take it seriously and asked them to go to a medical clinic. But ordinary medical clinics couldn't tell how to treat the disease. Finally, the plague appeared, spreading from ten to ten, leading to the current tragic situation.
Ye Fuxun thought deeply: "From the records in this file, it seems that nine out of ten people who contracted the disease have come into contact with people who have already contracted the disease, but there are also some who have never been in contact. It seems that the route of infection is not only through contact, but also through contact.
How the first one contracted the disease is unknown."
Bai Yuxian also nodded. He had already read the file: "And the first people to get sick are the elderly and children, with fewer young adults, followed by women."
Recalling the records he had seen in Tianyi Pavilion, Ye Fuxun said: "The health of young adults is good and they are more resistant to diseases, but it does not mean that they have not contracted the disease. It may just be because they are in good health and have not shown up. If
If so, then he must be carrying the disease, and it is possible that he could later infect other people."
"If so, it will be troublesome." Bai Yuxian frowned, his face dark.
Ye Fuxun suddenly thought of something. When he entered the city first, although there were few pedestrians on the streets, they all looked healthy: "Why hasn't the plague spread in Mingzhou Prefecture?"
There are six counties in Mingzhou, including Ningcheng, where the Zhizhou Prefecture is located.
Bai Yuxian sneered: "As soon as Li Du heard about the plague, he ordered Ningcheng to be sealed off and no people from outside were allowed to come in. Naturally, the people inside had no chance to catch the disease."
Ye Fuxun suddenly realized: "In this way, this move is actually correct, but this person is greedy for life and afraid of death, so he still deserves to die!"
Seeing the anger on her face, Bai Yuxian said: "Don't worry, I won't let him have an easy time."
We just don’t have time to deal with him now, but there will be plenty of opportunities in the future to uproot Li Du and the corrupt officials in Mingzhou!
Early the next morning, the disaster relief team gathered people and set off for Fengxian County. Before leaving, Ye Fuxun distributed the gauze he had prepared and asked everyone to cover their mouths and noses.
Bai Yuxian moved closer to the gauze and smelled the faint smell of alcohol.
The group of people all looked at Ye Fuxun in confusion. She was a woman, and it was understandable that she should wear a scarf to cover her face, but why did their big and thick men wear it?
Ye Fuxun said helplessly: "I have specially treated this cloth to disinfect it and prevent the spread of invisible things in the air. Although I don't know how effective it is, it is better than nothing."
Bai Yuxian put it on without saying anything. Seeing that Bai Yuxian had already put it on, even if others were not happy, they had no choice but to put it on.
