Chapter 220 Eight Hundred Miles Expedited

When Qin Yue received the news of the marriage, he had just finished interrogating Masan in the dungeon of Prince Hailing's Mansion.

He didn't even move his brows, but slowly wiped the blood on his hands.

Wei Yang said: "If Mr. Qi disappears before the wedding, Miss Gu will not be considered a rebel."

Qin Yue still didn't speak.

"Sir, as long as you say something, my subordinates will gather people right away. I guarantee that everything will be done flawlessly!" Wei Yang said enthusiastically.

In the year when Gu Mingshu faked his death, Wei Yang, the personal secret guard, knew best how crazy Qin Yue became.

Now that the prince has finally regained his sweetheart, and everyone is living a busy but normal life, Qi Ming, Cheng Yaojin, suddenly comes out to fight for her love. If he doesn't kill Qi Ming, is he going to keep it in exchange for "sacrifice yourself for others?"

"House of Goodness" plaque?

This cannot be done!

But Qin Yue did not directly issue a killing order as Wei Yang expected. Instead, he asked: "What did Xiao Shu say?"

"Your Majesty granted you a marriage, but Miss Gu couldn't resist the decree. She said nothing except accepting the decree," Wei Yang said.

Qin Yue raised his eyebrows slightly and asked again: "What changes have occurred in the affairs of the government?"

Wei Yang scratched his head and thought to himself: Why did the prince ask about the affairs of the mansion again?

"Our house is still the same as before. Concubine Ruan and Miss Yun compete with each other three times a day for three meals a day. The old concubine still eats fast and prays to Buddha every day. The assassin never goes to their courtyard, and there are some Jiangyang thieves who have no eyesight to touch them.

Many were killed by the shadow guards..."

Qin Yue:......

Who asked about Hailing Prince's Mansion? What he wanted to know was the General's Mansion!

At this time, Rong Changfeng, who was handling the aftermath of the dungeon, finally came out. He heard Qin Yue's question from a distance, and quickly stepped forward and pushed Wei Yang aside.

"Sir, everything is as usual at the General's Mansion. Although Miss Gu's maids were panicked, they were quickly sent to continue their work."

"Yes, I understand." Qin Yue's frown relaxed, and there was even a smile at the corners of his eyes and brows.

When Qin Yue walked away, Wei Yang asked Rong Changfeng in a low voice: "Brother, Miss Gu has been granted a marriage, what is the prince happy about?"

"His Majesty gave a secret decree to get married early next month. However, after receiving the decree, everything went as usual. She didn't even intend to prepare for the wedding. Isn't her attitude very obvious?" Rong Changfeng asked rhetorically.

Wei Yang said: "But since His Majesty has granted the marriage, no matter what Miss Gu's attitude is, there is no way she can resist the decree."

"If you can't resist the decree, can't you still be widowed?" Rong Changfeng looked at him as if he were a fool.

Wei Yang spoke in a low voice a little faster: "That's what I told the prince, and it was a perfect accident that made Miss Gu unable to marry. But the prince did not agree."

"Stupid!" Rong Changfeng shook his head and said: "Miss Gu is possessed by the concentric poison, but the mother poison is most likely in Qi Ming. If he dies, Miss Gu will follow him. Of course, he cannot kill him until the poison is removed.

.”

Wei Yang frowned: "But I heard about the solution to Tongxin Gu..."

Before he could finish speaking, Rong Changfeng bumped him with his elbow: "You are the only one who is knowledgeable? Shut up!"

Life is better than anything else.

That night, Qin Yue entered the general's mansion again.

When Chunhua, who was keeping watch at night, saw him coming, it was as if she had seen the savior.

"Your Majesty, you are finally here. During the day, the lady saw the modifications and improvements you made. She thought it was very ingenious and rewarded the slave. However, the lady ordered the slave to stay on duty tonight to help her improve the modification strategies and ideas, but

How can a slave know this?"

Qin Yue did come for this, but after hearing what Chunhua said, he stood at the door and asked, "What did she reward?"

Chunhua was startled, then reluctantly took out two goldfish the size of melon seeds from her purse and placed them in Qin Yue's palm.

Qin Yue glanced at it and put it in his sleeve pocket, then strode into the study.

When Qin Yue entered the room, Chunhua realized what he was doing and was very embarrassed: If he hadn't come to help, why would he have come to the study in the middle of the night? I begged him more than I should have, and I caught two little goldfish in vain.

Gu Mingshu did not lie down in the study to sleep this time. Not only that, she also directly spread out all the things she was working on on the desk, and even wrote some small explanations in some places to make it easier for someone to take over.

Qin Yue couldn't stop laughing when he saw it. This person really liked to be lazy. In many places, he just left questions and waited for him to write detailed solutions.

However, after flipping through it for a while, he found that Gu Mingshu worried about an absurd amount of things.

In addition to building an intelligence network, she seems to be purchasing large amounts of medicinal materials. At the same time, some jewelry, restaurants and other shops are listed for sale and cashed in cash. What is she doing?

"Chunhua, is your lady short of money lately?" he asked in a deep voice, frowning.

"There is no shortage," Chunhua thought for a while and said, "My young lady just likes money."

Qin Yue thought of those days when prices were clearly marked, and his cold eyes couldn't help but be filled with a smile. He nodded and said, "Indeed."

After a pause, he asked again: "Then why did she suddenly purchase a large amount of medicinal materials?"

Chunhua pondered and said: "Miss Cuiwei has always been in charge of the medicine shop. I don't know much about it. Every year, there are times when we purchase large quantities of medicinal materials due to the season. It's probably just a common business method."

Ordinary business methods will accurately collect medicines to prevent plague and clear away heat and poison?

Qin Yue didn't quite believe it.

When he went to court the next day, Qin Yue knew the reason why Gu Mingshu did this.

Eight hundred miles ahead of the front line, the epidemic broke out in a border town and infected three small towns. The defenders had to withdraw their troops and seal the city. However, Dawan and Quanrong, who were poisoned, took advantage of the fact that they had drunk the antidote in advance and went on unscrupulously.

Conquer the city and plunder the territory.

Now, the Dazhao defenders have retreated to Datong Pass!

There was an uproar in the court.

Previously, the Gu family army defended the city with impregnable strength, including the Dawan, Quan and Rong coalition forces. Although there were discussions in the court, there was not much tension, but in the blink of an eye, they all retreated to Datong?

If Datong is lost again, the coalition cavalry will march straight in, with disastrous consequences!

"Since the enemy has the antidote, why can't our army seize it? Gu Peiqing boasted all day long when he was in Beijing that entering the enemy's camp to get things was like entering an uninhabited country. How could he still allow the epidemic to spread?"

The minister who had been unhappy with Gu Peiqing for a long time immediately took the opportunity to apply eye drops.

People from the Ministry of War immediately came out to refute.

"Whether it is Yanzhou or Zhuanzhou, it is a big city with a population of hundreds of thousands. How many people can it control even if it robs the enemy of antidote? As you said, Gu Shuai has been doing it, but he can't withstand the epidemic."

"If you have a prescription, can't you prepare it yourself? Didn't the military doctor come up with the prescription?"

"It's useless to have a prescription. The medicine can only be found in the Moon God Mountain in Quanrong."

At this time, Qin Yue stood up.

"Before the war broke out, even though the border situation was tense, the trade between the two countries was not greatly affected. There must be some stocks of these medicines in Jokhang. Gu Shuai sent this urgent report because he presumably wanted these stocks."

"Let the Imperial Medical Bureau handle it immediately." Emperor Qinghe finally heard something useful and immediately made the decision. "Do you have any other opinions on the war?"

Some people who wanted to gain some military glory were worried about the epidemic before and did not dare to come forward. Now that they heard that the antidote was available, they all jumped out and said they would lead troops to help Gu Shuai.

This started another war of words.

At the same time, Gu Mingshu, who had sold the fake medicine, was standing at the door of the Imperial Medical Bureau, carrying a box much larger than an ordinary medicine box. She waited for Chen Chong to finish arranging the daily affairs, and then took her to see the emperor.
