Murong Bing's body trembled slightly. She was reluctant to let Zhao Rui leave, but she couldn't show it in front of Bai Hua and Shangguan Mu at the moment.
"Prince Rui, the border has been decided. No matter the Xiongnu or Rongdi, no one dares to invade in recent years. Shangguanqing's family's decree has just been implemented. For many major events in the court, I still have to rely on the prince. Can Rouran be replaced as envoy?"
go?"
Zhao Rui shook his head: "An envoy of a country must not only be loyal to His Majesty, but also be able to fully represent His Majesty. I would like to ask if there is a second choice in the whole business besides me?"
Murong Bing was a little helpless. In this way, Zhao Rui was indeed the only candidate.
"Your Majesty!" A young eunuch hurriedly came to the door: "Nanjun is reporting urgently. Lord Sima requested to transfer the palace physician to Nanjun."
Murong Bing was shocked and stood up.
After the merchants moved their capital to Longcheng, they issued a decree that if there was a plague that was difficult to quell, imperial doctors could be seconded from the palace.
"Hurry up and bring the memorial!"
The little eunuch didn't dare to show any slightness, so he hurried up and placed the memorial next to the table.
Murong Bing only took one look and felt dizzy.
"How could it be so serious?"
The little eunuch was suddenly frightened and trembled all over. How could he know such a question?
Shangguan Mu quickly stepped forward to comfort him.
"Your Majesty, calm down. The floods in the three southern counties were calmed down more than a month ago. Such a major disaster will inevitably lead to a plague! The top priority should be to send an imperial doctor to Nan County."
Murong Bing took a few deep breaths and tried to calm down.
"Okay, here's the order, Ba Baili hurry up and tell Master Sima that I will deliver what he wants as soon as possible."
The little eunuch did not dare to stay here any longer and left the imperial study room tremblingly.
Zhao Rui's face was a little more suspicious.
"Your Majesty, Master Sima is definitely a great talent in governing the country. He has been in Nanjun for many years. After a flood, he will definitely prevent the plague as soon as possible. It has been almost two months since the flood. If a plague suddenly breaks out, there must be something fishy."
Shangguan Mu and Bai Hua also agreed, two months is indeed too long.
Moreover, since Sima Shang took charge of Nanjun, there have been countless floods. After each flood, Sima Shang was careful to prevent the plague. Therefore, for so many years, there has never been news of a plague in Nanjun.
This time, there is indeed something strange.
Murong Bing was also in a daze. Thinking about it carefully, something was wrong.
"What do you think of Prince Rui?"
Zhao Rui raised his hand and said, "I want to take General Bai and Lord Shangguan to Nanjun, which borders the Liang Kingdom. I suspect that this plague may be related to the Liang Kingdom."
Murong Bing was a little puzzled: "Then you can just take General Bai with you. Why do you need to take the officials and ministers with you? Now the court of my great merchant cannot do without him."
Zhao Rui laughed twice: "Your Majesty doesn't know that the implementation of laws must be based on reality. I think Sir Shangguan has been eager to go down there and take a look."
Shangguan Mu suddenly became excited: "His Royal Highness is well aware of my intention, and I ask for your permission."
Murong Bing couldn't say anything more: "Okay, I'll let Li Fei bring a few people to protect you personally."
The situation was urgent, so Zhao Rui did not stay here any longer. After leaving the imperial study, he took Bai Hua and Shangguan Mu out of the imperial city.
