Wu Lu now had the Queen's order, so he had to look at it again reluctantly, turned around and went to the imperial study.
The emperor is busy with official duties these days, and he spends most of his days in the imperial study.
"Meet the Emperor."
Jun Lingyun saw Wu Lu and put down the memorial he was reading.
"But what's the matter with the Queen?"
Wu Lu handed over the prescription with both hands.
"This is the recipe that the Empress asked her subordinates to send. The Empress said that this recipe can make the fragrance spread far away and attract mice."
Jun Lingyun's eyes lit up, and his sadness suddenly disappeared. He took the prescription, glanced at it, and said:
"Here comes Imperial Physician Xuan Zhang, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, Jing Zhaoyin!"
Since Xi'er said that this recipe can attract rats within a ten-mile radius, it can certainly be done. In this way, it is possible to solve the plague.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On this day, the Ministry of Industry issued an urgent notice and summoned craftsmen to make a large number of mousetraps.
The carpenters and blacksmiths who were studying crafts at Tianxia College were even called upon to sign up en masse.
Suddenly there were half more craftsmen, and the speed of making mousetraps became much faster.
The people talked one after another that this Tianxia College is really a good college that benefits the country and the people.
In all walks of life, as long as the country needs it, the students of Tianxia Academy can always be of great use.
When they think of Tianxia Academy, they naturally also think of the princess who founded Tianxia Academy and is now the Queen.
In this world, women mostly live dependent on men and spend their whole lives fighting in the backyard.
But back then, the Queen had the guts to build a new school next to the sealed Sikong Academy and make it prosperous. This must be such great courage.
This also gave great encouragement to some women who were unwilling to accept their fate.
Let their vision no longer be limited to the one-third of an acre of land owned by their husband's family.
I wonder if I can also do something that would be beyond the reach of the men in my family.
As a result, more and more women came out to be female teachers, female shopkeepers, and female craftsmen, just as Chu Yunxi expected.
Of course, this is a story for another day. Right now, the Ministry of Industry has prepared the mousetraps that Jun Lingyun ordered them to make.
Taiyuan Hospital has also prepared bait according to Chu Yunxi's recipe.
After dark, Jing Zhaoyin ordered people to beat gongs and drums along the street, telling every household to open their doors and sit in high places, waiting for the court to kill rats.
The officials placed the mousetraps along the street, placing them in rows every twenty miles.
He also ordered people to find several uninhabited places, dig big holes, and put bait directly in the holes.
That night, the people in the capital were both nervous and excited. From time to time, they heard exclamations coming from every house.
As if they had been summoned, the rats rushed out one after another and headed straight for the bait.
When daybreak came, the officials stared at the mousetraps in astonishment. Every one of them was missing. There were mice on every one of them!
They quickly covered their mouths and noses with cloth strips, put on leather gloves, and put the rats into large sacks.
Jun Lingyun stood on the city wall with a panoramic view of the capital, and the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
Xi'er is really his lucky star, how should he thank Xi'er!
The common people also poked their heads out of their houses and watched curiously.
Looking at those sacks filled with mice, my scalp felt numb.
It turns out that there are so many mice in their house!
Rats not only bring plague, but also steal their food! In these days, food can be equal to their lives.
The imperial court has really done a lot of harm to the people this time!
The officials had already used carriages to pull the rats and transport them to a large pit outside the city. The rats in the pit were so densely packed that it was unbearable to look at them.
The officials worked quickly and poured all the collected rats into the pit, poured oil on them, stepped back a few steps, lit a wooden stick, and threw it into the pit.
Flames shot into the sky, accompanied by the sound of "squeaking", and the source of the plague was thus cleaned up.
In the next few days, the officials changed positions and repeated the operation several times. Finally, there were no more mice on the mousetrap.
In Anminfang, after the imperial doctors experimented with prescriptions many times, some people finally recovered and walked out alive. They hugged each other with their families and cried with joy.
The people all over the capital cheered for joy. They finally saw hope. The plague was about to pass!
In the palace, Jun Lingyun told Qing Feng:
"Send the order and order local governments to follow the example of the capital and eradicate the plague!"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Qing Feng did not retreat after receiving the order, but instead glanced at Jun Lingyun secretly.
Jun Lingyun raised his eyebrows.
"Is there anything else?"
Qingfeng quickly cupped his fists and said:
"Your Majesty, Su He, who lives with the secret guards, wanted to see you, but no one informed him, so he started fighting with the secret guards."
After Qing Feng finished speaking, he quickly lowered his head.
He also didn't know what arrangements the emperor wanted to make with Mu Qier's shadow guard Su He, and he didn't know if what he said was correct.
If the emperor wanted to keep Su He cold first, wouldn't he be meddling in other people's business?
Jun Lingyun paused for a moment before realizing who this Su He was. He had been so busy recently that he had long forgotten this person.
"Let him come to the imperial study room."
"yes."
Qingfeng really backed down this time.
When Jun Lingyun saw Su He, he almost didn't recognize him.
Looking at Su He's face, which was green and purple, it was obvious that he had not gotten any favor from the secret guards.
Whoever let Su He go before also made his guards suffer a lot of hidden losses, so it's considered even.
"Why do you want to see me?"
Jun Lingyun asked knowingly, knowing that Su Heding had not seen Mu Qier for too long and was worried.
Su He had just finished the fight and was suffocating in his heart. But being under the eaves, he had to lower his head:
"My subordinates have surrendered, why does the emperor still restrict their freedom and prevent them from seeing my little master?"
Jun Lingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, "Subordinate?" is a good title.
It seems that these days, the secret guards have worked hard to make Su Hexue behave a lot.
"I remember that you only agreed to be loyal to Mu Qier and Bai Xiao, but you never said you would be loyal to me and to the Yunxiao Kingdom! How could I let you move around as you please in the Yunxiao Kingdom?"
Jun Lingyun's salty words made Su Heyi choke. He didn't want to argue with Jun Lingyun, he just wanted to get an answer:
"Subordinate, can you meet the young master?"
Jun Lingyun said:
"Your little master is no longer in Yunxiao Kingdom."
"What?"
Su He raised his head in shock. Not in Yunxiao Kingdom? The young master is not in Yunxiao Kingdom anymore, so what is he still doing here?
"My mistress, where has she gone?"
Jun Lingyun glanced over, and Su He realized belatedly that he was facing Jun Lingyun, the God of War Emperor.
I had no choice but to say respectfully:
"Please tell me, Your Majesty."
Jun Lingyun withdrew his eyes and did not embarrass him too much:
"Northern Barbarian Kingdom!"
Su He was shocked again. The young master has returned to the Northern Barbarian Kingdom? What to do? Revenge?
Thinking of this, Su He felt cold all over. He was fighting against the entire Northern Barbarian royal family alone. Wasn't this asking the young master to seek death?
