The number of patients in the village suddenly doubled. Dai Mei, Quan Fu and others all ran in to help them regardless of Xu Ji's obstruction. Xu Ji threatened to burn the village outside, but Ye Rou didn't even pay attention to him. She just wanted to cure all the patients. ♀
"Supervisor Xu, burning the village is not a trivial matter. You'd better think twice." Zheng Yulong said to Xu Ji.
Xu Ji looked at the firewood that had been piled up with a gloomy face. He naturally wanted to burn the whole village, but he could take the risk of burning Lu Yaoyao to death, but there was Huangfu Chen among them.
He didn't dare to do anything to Huangfu Chen. Who knew how much strength Huangfu Dynasty had now? At that time, Huangfu Dynasty abdicated on his own, not because he was defeated. Now even the Mo family's royal family was respectful to Huangfu Chen. If he really burned Huangfu Chen to death, he was afraid that the whole Xu family would be buried with him.
"After two days, if those patients still don't have any color, then don't blame this general for being ruthless." Xu Ji said coldly.
"How do you want to be ruthless?" As soon as Xu Ji finished speaking, a mellow voice sounded from behind him.
When Xu Ji heard this unfamiliar voice, he felt quite displeased that he had been questioned. He turned and glared at the person who had spoken. When he saw that it was a young man he had never seen before, a look of disdain appeared in his eyes. "Who are you to dare question this General?"
"You don't even know me, and you dare to murder the princess?" Tang Zhen looked at Xu Ji coldly. He had just come out of Huaijiang City and Doctor Qi had already told him everything. This Xu Ji actually wanted to burn Yao Yao to death, completely disregarding Yao Yao's identity as a princess. His sinister heart was known to everyone. ♀
"Marquis Jingning, this humble officer will go to the village to find the princess first." Xue Lin followed Tang Zhen. Now he was most worried about whether the princess would be injured. The emperor let him follow the princess to protect her. If anything happened to the princess, he couldn't atone for it even if he died.
Although Tang Zhen also wanted to go to find Yaoyao immediately, he still had to teach Xu Ji a lesson, so he let Xue Lin enter the village first.
"Who are you? How dare you be so arrogant." Xu Ji did not clearly hear the Marquis Jingning from Xue Lin's mouth. When he saw Xue Lin already walking towards the village, he felt a kind of anger from being ignored and immediately wanted to grab Xue Lin.
Xue Lin turned around and ruthlessly kicked him, "If you weren't Prime Minister Xu's son, I would have already killed you today. You don't even put Sir Huangfu and Her Highness the Princess in your eyes and still dare to say that other people consider everyone beneath them. Even if you don't know the Princess, you should at least know Marquis Jingning right? I don't know what you're talking about. "
Tang Zhen, Marquis Jingning? Xu Ji's face flashed with panic. He looked back at Tang Zhen in surprise, "You, you are Tang Zhen?"
How could this be? Wasn't Tang Zhen in the capital? Why would he appear in Huaijiang?
Xue Lin snorted coldly, turned around, and hurried into the village. ♀
Xu Ji had no time to stop Xue Lin. He could threaten Lu Yaoyao because he knew that Lu Yaoyao was not a real Princess. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor might not care about her now, but Tang Zhen was different. Tang Zhen was a close minister of the Emperor who had contributed to the rise of the Emperor. Everyone knew that the most trusted person of the current Emperor was Tang Zhen.
"Xu Ji, I heard that you want to burn the Princess?" Tang Zhen smiled a little coldly and horribly.
"The plague is spreading so fast that all the people in the village are infected and can't be cured. I did this to prevent the plague from spreading more." Xu Ji was nervous, but he still forced himself to be calm.
Tang Zhen looked at him coldly, "So, Supervisor Xu is still thinking about the people, so you want to burn all the people inside?"
Without waiting for Xu Ji to nod, he shouted again, "Who gave you such a right? Who allowed you to burn the village? Who allowed you to trap the Princess in the village? The Princess was conferred by the Empress Dowager. Although she has no royal blood, she has the title of Princess. You, a little supervisor, dare to offend your superior. Is this the good son taught by Prime Minister Xu? "
Xu Ji's forehead was sweating. He hadn't received his sister's letter before he planned to burn the village. When he received the letter, he had already given the order. Now he didn't remove the dry firewood because he wanted to scare Lu Yaoyao. He never expected Tang Zhen to appear here.
"Even if you want to stop the plague, you must listen to the doctor's opinion. Doctor Qi told you clearly that the plague has improved. Why do you still want to burn the village?" Tang Zhen didn't give Xu Ji a chance to speak and continued to scold him in a deep voice.
No one around dared to make a sound, only watching Xu Ji being scolded by Tang Zhen.
Xu Ji's face turned white and red. He was the son of Prime Minister Xu, so he didn't dare to go anywhere. People would always give him some face. No one had ever dared to scold him in public like this.
"Marquis Jingning, this lowly official has already said that it was to prevent the plague from spreading to more people. Moreover, this lowly official had already warned the princess before she entered the village," Xu Ji explained with a straight neck.
Tang Zhen sneered, "Warning? Xu Ji, it's really surprising that such words came from your mouth. Whatever excuse you have, today's matter will be judged by the Emperor in the future. You can explain your reasons to the Emperor in the future. "
Xu Ji's face became more and more ugly.
Tang Zhen turned to look at Zheng Yulong, "Zheng Daren, what do you think we should do with these dry firewood?"
Zheng Yulong hurriedly said, "I will immediately let people take away these dry firewood."
"Marquis Jingning, if the plague in the village spreads outside, who will be responsible for it?" Xu Ji asked loudly.
Tang Zhen looked at him with a smile, "You just have to be careful not to be infected."
Xu Ji was angry when he heard this. Wasn't this clearly cursing him? But he dared not say anything. The men in black behind Tang Zhen didn't look like ordinary guards. He didn't dare to challenge Tang Zhen's position in the Emperor's mind.
"Go back and tell Governor Zhang that this marquis is waiting for him here. Get out!" Tang Zhen snorted coldly and unceremoniously drove Xu Ji away.
"You …" Xu Ji was so angry that he almost wanted to spit out a mouthful of blood. It was a great shame. No one had ever treated him like this.
Tang Zhen no longer paid attention to him and strode into the village.
Zheng Yulong didn't look at Xu Ji but told the soldiers around him, "Hurry up, take away all the dry firewood and vegetable oil in the village, hurry up."
Xu Ji looked at Tang Zhen's back with a pale face. If he had a chance in the future, he would definitely return today's insult to him.
Although he didn't achieve what he wanted, at least what his sister told him was completed. Lu Yaoyao already knew that she had fallen out of favor. When she returned to the capital, she should not be too arrogant. His sister's position in the palace should be more stable. As for Ye Yaoyao, a woman of unknown origin, even if she was made a concubine in the future, how could she be his sister's opponent?
