118 Conspiracy at night

But in general, although there are a lot of trivial matters today, they are still much better than yesterday's "thrills and excitement".

If the problem of disaster relief food had not been solved yesterday, today would definitely be extremely sad.

Just the problem of feeding a disaster victim is enough to give people a headache.

Dong Cheng and Zhu Xiuyuan were busy until dark before going home.

After returning home, I took a shower, washed myself, filled my stomach, and then went to bed early.



Jiangzhou Yamen, the back house of the Yamen.

Boom, boom, boom!

As soon as the governor Fang Tang got into his concubine's warm bed, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Who is it?" Fang Tang asked casually, with a bit of dissatisfaction in his tone.

"My lord, I am a young governor. I have something urgent to report to you."

Fang Tang frowned. If someone had disturbed him at this time in the past, Fang Tang would have said, "We'll talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to do."

But now the situation is delicate. If you are not careful, you will be doomed. Fangtang does not dare to be careless, so he asks: "What's the matter?"

"The Governor, the Chief Governor and the Sima Master came to visit together and said they had important matters to discuss."

"Oh?" Fang Tang immediately lifted the quilt, turned over and wanted to get out of bed, and ordered: "Please go to the study room and wait for a while. I will be there soon."

The man outside the door said "yes" and walked away.

However, just as Fang Tang was about to get out of bed, the concubine holding the warm quilt wrapped around his waist and cooed: "Sir... where are you going? Stay with me..."

This concubine is a bone-scratching fairy. When she opens her mouth, her bones will become crispy.

However, Fangtang can still distinguish priorities. Now, meeting Hua Chaoshi and Wan Qian is obviously more important.

Therefore, Fangtang pulled away his concubine's hand and said while putting on his clothes: "I have some important matters to attend to. You have to wait for me to come back."

Unexpectedly, the concubine didn't know what was wrong. She wrapped her hands around her again, preventing Fang Tang from wearing clothes. She said in a voice so charming that it could drive people crazy: "My lord... I don't want you... My lord, please stay with me."

…”

Fang Tang secretly took a breath of air, raised his hand, pushed the concubine away, and shouted: "Get out of here!"

The concubine was so frightened that she just froze on the couch and didn't dare to move.

Fang Tang suddenly became angry, which really frightened her.

Fangtang was too lazy to pay attention to the concubine, dressed up in a hurry, opened the door and left.

study.

The three of them greeted each other and took their seats respectively.

Fang Tang asked: "I wonder what happened to Mr. Hua and Mr. Wan when they came together late at night?"

Hua Chaoshi cupped his hands and said: "Your Excellency, the situation is urgent now, so I have to make a long story short. Please don't blame me."

Fangtang: "Master Hua, I just say it doesn't matter."

Hua Chaoshi and Wan Qian looked at each other, then looked at Fangtang and said: "Master Governor, the people sent outside the city by the lower officials have returned."

Fang Tang paused and asked quickly: "Oh, what's the situation?"

Hua Chaoshi: "Lord Governor, the situation is very serious. We need to make arrangements immediately. If it's too late, I'm afraid..."

"Hiss..." Fang Tang took a deep breath and asked, "What is the specific situation?"

Hua Chaoshi: "Your Excellency, the governor, according to the reports from the lower officials, signs of plague have appeared in remote villages outside the city. In some villages, the entire village has been infected with the disease, coughing non-stop, and most of the villagers have become bedridden!"

After hearing this, Fang Tang stood up from his chair. After frowning and thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Have you found out what kind of plague it is?"

Hua Chaoshi coughed twice and said awkwardly: "Your Majesty, the people who lower the rank are not doctors. In addition, they cannot come into close contact with people infected with the plague, so..."

"I know, but after a major disaster there will be a major epidemic. This is certain. But... our disaster is not over yet?" Fangtang seemed to be talking to himself.

Hua Chaoshi: "Lord Governor, before this heavy rain fell in Jiangzhou, there was continuous light rain for several days. I am afraid that the plague started after that light rain."

"Well, that should be the case."

Fang Tang sat down on the chair again, glanced at Hua Chaoshi and Wan Qian in turn, and said: "A few days ago, we discussed how to deal with it. Now it seems that we need to discuss it again."

Wan Qian suddenly jumped out and cupped his hands and said: "Master Governor, Master Changshi, and the lower officials think that we can start to select a place and prepare sufficient food and water sources to isolate the outside world to deal with the danger of this plague."

When Hua Chaoshi saw Wan Qian say this, he remained silent, glanced at Wan Qian, and then looked at Fangtang.

Fang Tang looked a little unnatural, stared at Wan Qian, frowned and said: "Master Wan, do you want me to abandon the people of this state and four counties?"

Wan Qian was so horrified that he jumped up from his chair and bowed: "I don't dare, I have no intention of doing this. I am..."

When Hua Chao Shi saw this situation, he immediately took over Wan Qian's words: "Master Governor, I want to come here, but Master Sima probably has no intention of doing so. It's just that the person who is responsible for disaster prevention and relief now is Dong Cheng, the military recorder...

…”

"Yes, Dong Cheng is now in charge of all disaster relief matters, but how can I only care about my own safety and ignore the people of the state and four counties?" Fang Tang sighed.

Wan Qian was stunned.

Lord Governor...why did you suddenly say this?

This must have changed too quickly, as if the Fangtang who was so gloomy in the back hall of the Yamen a few days ago was not this person.

Hua Chaoshi glanced sideways at Fangtang and said: "Master Governor, this is a natural disaster and a plague, which cannot be changed by human power. I know that you are concerned about the safety of the people, but... in the face of the great epidemic after the great disaster

, manpower is sometimes poor!”

Fang Tang sighed: "Yes, Mr. Hua is right. How can manpower resist the power of natural disasters..."

Hua Chaoshi's expression suddenly became serious, and he almost gritted his teeth and said: "Master Governor, in that house yesterday... the palace steward obviously knew everything about us."

Fang Tang frowned fiercely: "Master Hua, what do you mean?"

Hua Chaoshi's face was still filled with a look of horror, and he sneered: "Master Governor, even if the palace steward did not expose you and me yesterday, I think it was only because King Poyang was sending troops abroad and the disaster was coming.

When the natural disaster passes and King Poyang comes back, the Poyang Palace will definitely take action against us!"

Wan Qian was frightened and opened his mouth wide, but he did not dare to make any sound. He only opened a pair of small eyes embedded in his round face and glanced at Fang Tang and Hua Chaoshi.
