Dou Zhuoyu had just gotten off the carriage. He was smiling at first, but when he heard the sound of killing, he knew that the other party was trying to intimidate him. His face instantly turned ugly. He put away his smile and strode over to find two teenagers. Standing at the gate of the city, the young man who spoke had a cold and arrogant temperament, but after thinking about it, he couldn't remember which young master he was from, yet he was so disrespectful to him.
However, the imperial envoy Lord Luo recognized Shen Tianli, took a step forward with a smile and said: "I didn't expect Sheng Shengzi and Lord Shen to come here to deliver the herbs. It's really hard for Lord Sheng and Lord Shen. Please invite the two of you!"
When Dou Zhuoyu heard about Master Shen, he immediately understood that this person in front of him was the new champion and was very popular with the emperor. However, he was just a young boy. A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers. He actually dared to do anything and did not offend anyone with words or deeds. Know.
Just like him, with no background and just relying on the emperor's favor, he wouldn't be able to get far in the officialdom.
Then he smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Prince Sheng, Mr. Shen, we have missed the welcome. But now the plague in Chi'an Mansion is serious. For the sake of the prince and Mr. Shen, Dou will not entertain you two. You two put the herbs and return to the capital as soon as possible. Bar!"
Shen Tianli didn't even look at him, but directly took out the imperial edict to Xiao Jinsheng and ordered: "Read it!"
Not to mention reciting the imperial edict, Xiao Jinsheng had never even read it before. When he saw Shen Tianli handing him the box containing the edict, he hurriedly took it, took out the edict, coughed lightly to calm down the excitement in his heart, and then shouted loudly: " The edict has arrived!"
Dou Zhuoyu and Lord Luo hurriedly knelt down. After listening to the content of the imperial edict, Dou Zhuoyu's face turned bad, because the emperor had given Shen Tianli full authority to take charge of all affairs of the Chi'an Mansion during the epidemic. Prince Sheng and he even All officials of the Anfu government must assist.
In other words, during the period of epidemic control, all matters must be listened to by Shen Tianli.
Although he looked ugly, it was an imperial edict and he did not dare to disobey it. He could only accept the edict and express gratitude.
As soon as he stood up, he heard Shen Tianli say: "Master Zhu, kill the captain of the city gate and let them all watch. If he neglects his duty while guarding the city gate again, he will not live."
Dou Zhuoyu's face turned even more ugly. Did Shen Tianli definitely want to slap him in the face?
He suppressed his smile and asked, "Mr. Shen, are you making a fuss out of a molehill? It's noon, what's wrong with them eating upstairs?"
"Master Zhu, why don't you tell Master Dou what's wrong?"
Zhu Shiwei is the leader of the guards of Prince Cheng's palace and a military attaché of the fourth rank. Although Shen Tianli is an imperial envoy, he is only of the sixth rank, and Magistrate Dou is also a fourth rank, so the fourth rank is just right for the fourth rank.
"Master Dou, Chi'an Mansion is an important place in the northwest of Dachang. It is only two days away from Yucheng Pass. If there is an emergency at the border and we come to take pictures of the city gate, will they not open the door for an hour just to eat and drink? The delay is the city gate school. Is the lieutenant in charge or Magistrate Dou in charge? Moreover, we came here on the emperor's order to deliver herbs to treat the people, but we made the prince and Lord Shen wait for two cups of tea and still didn't open the door. This is not only contempt for the emperor, but also contempt for the emperor. .Master Shen only killed one captain, which was already merciful enough!"
After Guard Zhu finished speaking, Dou Zhuoyu shook his hand and said with a smile: "What Mr. Zhu said is true. This captain really deserves to be killed."
When the city guard heard that the prefect was begging for mercy for him, he was very happy at first, thinking that he could be spared from death. But he didn't expect that the prefect would say the same thing now, and he hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, "Sir, please spare your life, I will never dare to do this again." Got it!"
But it was already too late. With a wave of guard Zhu's hand, two people came out, dragged the captain not far from the city gate, and killed the man in front of everyone.
Seeing that the person had been dealt with, Dou Zhuoyu suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Lord Shen, let's go into the city!"
Shen Tianli nodded, and then said to Xiao Jinsheng: "You go and ask your master and wife to take charge of these people. Leave two people and a cart of herbs, and I will call your uncle."
"Okay, I'll go right away!" After Xiao Jinsheng said that, he ran away in a hurry.
Dou Zhuoyu didn't take Shen Tianli seriously at all. He subdued a fourth-grade imperial envoy, let alone a new number one scholar of the sixth grade.
But seeing that he was giving orders to Crown Prince Sheng, and that he was both a master and an uncle, and yet the dignified Crown Prince actually obeyed his orders, I immediately felt that this was a difficult character to deal with.
He smiled and asked: "Master Luo, does this Master Shen have a good relationship with the Master?"
Mr. Luo frowned, pondered for a moment and said: "I heard that the husband of the young master of Lingxiang Pavilion was a miracle doctor. He cured Prince Sheng's illness and gave Prince Cheng an heir. Then Prince Sheng recognized the miracle doctor as his master. And Xiaodongjia is a relative of Lord Shen, so..." Some people say that Xiaodongjia is Lord Shen's cousin, and some people say that Xiaodongjia is Lord Shen's wife's sister. In any case, he said that the two families are relatives, which is correct.
Dou Zhuoyu married the daughter of the Qin family, so he naturally knew about Lingxiang Pavilion in the capital, and he also knew that the backstage of Lingxiang Pavilion was the Feng family.
Now that Mr. Luo said this, he couldn't help but frown, that is to say, Shen Tianli is not only related to Prince Cheng's Palace, but also to the Feng Family. No wonder he is so bold to give himself such a big blow!
He wanted to see if Shen Tianli's ability was as great as his temper, and he could quickly assess the condition of Chi'an Mansion.
Shen Tianli and Liu Ye brought the herbs into Chi'an Mansion. There was no one on the streets of Chi'an Mansion, and all the streets and alleys were closed.
Shen Tianli frowned and asked, "Master Dou, Master Luo, are there no patients in the city?"
Before Mr. Luo finished speaking, Dou Zhuoyu said with a smile: "Of course there is, but the imperial doctor and doctors have already controlled the disease, and everyone is at home, so Mr. Shen doesn't have to worry. I have a separate hospital, so why not Your Majesty and Master Shen, please go there to rest!"
"No! Let's just go to the post house!" Shen Tianli said this. Mr. Luo on the side looked a little embarrassed. No need to guess, Mr. Luo definitely did not live in the post house.
In fact, not only Master Luo was not in the post house, but also the two court judges and ten imperial doctors were not in the post house.
Shen Tianli brought the herbs into the post house, and the people in the post house hurriedly arranged accommodation. Shen Tianli asked Feng Wu to inquire about the situation in Chi'an Mansion, and asked Guard Zhu to invite the imperial doctors.
"Ji Chen, this Chi'an Mansion feels too depressing. Tell me, how do these court judges and imperial doctors treat diseases? They don't go to each household for free clinics in person!"
"If it is a free clinic at each household, it is also for some powerful people. Ordinary people may be waiting to die at home!"
He now somewhat understands why tens of thousands of people died in Chi'an Mansion in the previous life!
Soon, Feng Wu brought the news. It was just as Shen Tianli expected. Dou Zhuoyu did not allow people to go to the streets for treatment, but the imperial doctors sent by the emperor and the doctors in the city all treated those dignitaries or wealthy businessmen's slaves. Already.
Nowadays, the lives of slaves are more valuable than the lives of ordinary people.
