The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Sure enough, with the push of the people behind the scenes, it didn't take long for thousands of soldiers at the border to suffer from diarrhea. Some of the soldiers who were seriously ill were already in a state of dehydration and could not even walk. The doctors in the army were so busy that they couldn't find out the cause at all, and they were all at a loss what to do.

When the urgent report reached the imperial court, Emperor Hui'an was furious. The soldiers and officials at the border were not clear. Wasn't he who had just ordered to rebuke King Heng not clear? I thought that King Heng was just making a mistake and was instigated by his subordinates to sell the moldy grain privately, but he didn't know that the moldy grain had already penetrated into the army and was harming tens of thousands of soldiers guarding the border.

Once there is a problem with the soldiers guarding the border, the morale of the military will inevitably be unstable. If the barbarians from outside the wall take advantage of the situation, then...

Thinking of the possible consequences, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Emperor Hui'an's back. In his heart, he cursed King Heng, the culprit who caused this result.

Emperor Hui'an was a wise king and immediately sent the best doctors from the imperial hospital to the border to treat the poisoned soldiers.

It is not enough to just treat the soldiers and appease their morale. If King Heng does not severely punish him, the 50,000 soldiers at the border who have been deeply poisoned will not be willing to accept it. Once there is a grudge in their hearts, who will fight for the country of Dachu?

In order to appease the soldiers at the border and stabilize the morale of the army, even if Emperor Hui'an loved King Heng, he could not protect him anymore. The next day, an imperial edict was issued, lowering the title of Prince Heng from Prince to Prince Heng.

It sounds like it's just a step down, and it doesn't hurt King Heng. But it would be difficult for King Heng to raise this level again. What's more, King Heng, no, King Heng is looking at the position of the prince. He is obviously very close, but now there is a gap in front of him, which is enough to make him feel heartbroken for a while.

The princes and princes who wanted to overthrow Prince Heng were very dissatisfied with this insignificant treatment, and they mobilized their own forces to remonstrate with Emperor Hui'an. As a result, they were all beaten back by Emperor Hui'an.

As the pusher, the prince Wangye was not in good shape either. He was also called to the imperial study room and was scolded severely, saying that they had no sense of brotherhood or respect for their brothers, and asked them to go home and reflect.

Such a rebuke is already quite serious. If we look deeper, a person with no sense of filial piety and brotherhood, even if he becomes the master of the world, how can he be expected to think about the people of the world?

From the beginning to the end of the whole incident, Chu Heng stayed in Jingshan Hospital to recuperate. It would be false to say that he was not disappointed with Emperor Hui'an's treatment of King Heng.

Chu Heng sat in a wheelchair and looked out the window quietly, his expression indifferent, and he didn't know what he was thinking. Maybe he had seen enough, and when he looked back, he saw the worry in Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes that he didn't look back in time.

"Don't worry Hanzhang, I'm fine."

"Um."

Xiao Ruiyuan looked at the slight smile on his face. He didn't say anything on his face, but he was even more worried in his heart. At this time, he hoped that His Highness would get angry and vent his dissatisfaction, but no matter how dissatisfied he was, he had never done anything inappropriate.

Chu Heng couldn't see him like this and said with a smile: "It's reasonable for him to do this. After all, Prince Heng has all his abilities and means. If I have any shortcomings, then...he must consider the country of Da Chu."

Having said that, even Xiao Ruiyuan noticed the melancholy in his voice.

"Your Highness, as long as you find black Ganoderma lucidum and Millennium Ginseng, your health will get better."

Xiao Ruiyuan said dryly, feeling very uncomfortable. If he hadn't been subject to this dilapidated body, His Highness' intelligence would have secured him the position of prince, and he wouldn't have to be coveted and expected to die early like he is now.
