Chapter 45 45, Taking orders and handling the case

At that time, Xiao Qiyu was practicing his sword. After practicing his sword, he had to read for an hour.

For more than ten years, he has had the habit of getting up early every day, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter.

Unless your physical condition is extremely poor, or other important things have been delayed.

It is precisely because of his hard work that he is good at martial arts and full of knowledge.

After practicing his sword skills, Xiao Qiyu was wiping his sweat when Asuo hurried in, clasped his hands in his fists, and whispered:

"Master, something happened over there with Miss Mu Qi..."

Xiao Qiyu frowned slightly: "What happened to her again?"

"Last night, cowpox rash suddenly broke out all over her face. The royal doctor just came to see her. It is said that in the palaces where she was, several good family members had cowpox rash.

"One of them had a condition yesterday afternoon, but he kept it secret and still visited Linxi Palace. It is said that the water oozing out of the broken cowpox bag will be infected if it touches it..."

Asuo investigated the matter very clearly.

Xiao Qiyu felt something was wrong.

The blood of Miss Mu Qi can restrain the poisonous poison in his body, which shows that her blood is different from ordinary people. Even if others can get it, she shouldn't get it.

"Have all the good sons who got cowpox been sent out of the palace?"

"Yes. Although the cowpox is not fatal, it is easy to get scars on the body after infection. In order to prevent the infection from spreading and damaging the appearance of other good family members, the queen has sent them to Baiyun Nunnery, where they will be managed by the palace physician.

Treat them until they recover and then send them home.

"But their qualifications for the draft are not guaranteed. Within one or two years after getting acne, it is difficult to remove the acne marks on their faces.

"Right now, everything in the palace is being cleaned and disinfected. Regardless of masters or servants, everyone needs to take decoctions to prevent the disease from spreading..."

Xiao Qiyu threw the sweat towel in his hand into the basin next to him, and his eyes flashed faintly:

Mu Yunjiang, you can slip away very quickly.

Since this little girl is so good at poisoning and healing, how could she not be able to cure this little cowpox?

Obviously, she didn't want to participate in the talent show, let alone marry Luo Xunyang, so she didn't come forward to cure the epidemic.

With this little girl's family background, she is already a high achiever to be able to marry into the Jinyang Marquis Mansion.

Of the two of them, one is a queen of a marquis, and the other is just the daughter of an ordinary petty official.

When other people encounter such a marriage, they have to worship heaven and earth and burn incense, but she is so dismissive.

This child, with his temperament, is truly unmatched in the world.

"Has the source been found?"

It couldn't be her fault!

"It has been found. This pox has spread quietly in Tiandu. A woman infected with this pox came to deliver food here. She has a sister who is a maid in Linxi Palace. The two have met and had physical contact.

, it became contagious..."

Xiao Qiyu felt that something was wrong, and he intuitively felt that the cowpox in the palace might have been spread artificially, but now, he was not sure whose work it was.

"Mu Yunjiang was stripped of his qualifications. How did Xunyang react?"

"Luo Xiaolangjun went to the queen to plead for mercy and left Miss Mu Qi behind, but he was scolded by the queen and came back..."

Naturally, it is impossible for the queen to do this. The ladies in other palaces all have high status. If everyone is infected with the epidemic, the queen will not be able to explain to the princes of the aristocratic family.

"Third brother, third brother..."

Just as he was talking, Luo Xunyang ran in, with a bitter look on his face, and shouted:

"Why am I so unlucky? I finally got the queen's permission and gave Jiang Jiang the opportunity to participate in the draft. Why did cowpox appear in the palace out of nowhere? What should I do now?"

He ran in and hugged Xiao Qiyu, howling and mourning.

Xiao Qiyu sighed secretly: "Is she that good?"

"Yes, she is the best, the best. Apart from her, no other noble girl or princess can catch my eye."

Xiao Qiyu was just about to ask how good Mu Yunjiang was, when someone came in from outside the door, but it was a servant from the palace who came to deliver the message.

"The third prince accepted the order.

"The emperor has an order for the third prince to return to Beijing immediately. Regarding the case of smuggling sea salt, from today onwards, the third prince will be fully responsible. He has specially given a token and hopes that the third prince will solve the case as soon as possible..."

Xiao Qiyu received the order respectfully and took the token: "My son, I accept the order."

After the chamberlain left, Luo Xunyang stuck out his tongue and said: "Third brother, I heard that the emperor has been investigating this sea salt smuggling case for almost half a year. Isn't it because he didn't find anything famous? The emperor just now

I've thrown this hard nut to you again... Oh, why does the Emperor love to trick you so much..."

In Luo Xunyang's view, Xiao Qiyu is really an unlucky prince:

From the age of twelve, he guarded the border and left Tiandu, living with Huangsha all day long. He was only recalled to Tiandu once a year at the end of the year. Later, he repeatedly performed extraordinary feats and became ill again, so the emperor sent him to the capital.

Called back.

When there was nothing going on in the court, the emperor would just leave him alone.

Whenever something happened in the court, the emperor would choose the most difficult errands and give them to him.

Done, there is no reward.

If he can't do it, sorry, it's because he is incompetent.

But unfortunately, although Xiao Qiyu's health has not been as good as before in recent years, he can still handle everything assigned by the emperor beautifully.

Even the Minister of Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple felt that His Highness the Third Highness was an all-rounder in both civil and military affairs - capable of guarding the borders with military force, and investigating strange cases with literary talent.

He is an incredible genius.

"Get used to it."

Xiao Qiyu said lightly, but he was happy in his heart.

The case of smuggling sea salt has been widely involved among the people and has caused considerable losses to Great Liang. He has been secretly investigating it for a long time, and now he has some very important clues in hand.

Before, he had estimated that this case might fall into his hands, so he did not reveal these clues.

"Xiao Xunzi, how about you, stay here and recuperate, I have to go back to heaven."

He turned to leave without asking any more questions about Mu Yunjiang.

But Luo Xunyang stopped him: "Wait a minute, if the third brother leaves like this, what will happen to my marriage to Jiang Jiang? How about the third brother give me some advice?"

"Let go, I'm very busy, you can take care of such small things yourself."

The corners of his robe were grabbed.

"No, no, no, third brother, help me. This is not a trivial matter, it is a lifelong event for me."

This kid started acting rogue again.

Xiao Qiyu sighed and looked down at Luo Xunyang, who was lying on the ground, clutching his robe: "You are so shameless, how dare you go and play with the emperor?"

"That's right, I can directly ask the emperor for marriage... Think about it, this time my life was saved by Jiang Jiang... If you save your life, you have to repay the favor, and to repay the favor, you should commit yourself to it. It's just and right.

Ah... Third brother, thank you, I will have someone prepare a carriage and go back to Tiandu..."

Luo Xunyang suddenly enlightened, got up from the ground, and ran away happily.

Xiao Qiyu couldn't help but pinched his temples, wanting to stop him and say to him: "Only women pledge themselves to each other. You are a man, so what are you promising... Is it justifiable? Just wait for the emperor to give you a lecture."

…”

For some reason, he felt a little uneasy.

What if the father is so happy that he actually gets married?

So, did he just say the wrong thing?

Forget it, I don’t think about it anymore, it’s more important to go back to Beijing to do business.

What does this little girl's life-long event have to do with him?

But why is he regretting that bad idea?
