Chapter 365 is related to bugs?
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed drastically.
Pei Chen was originally trying to take this opportunity to ask for status from Mr. Zhao, but at this moment he didn't care about all that. He went out directly with Xiao Ji, Xie Yao and others in tacit understanding.
"what happened?"
Xiao Ji's tone was a little anxious.
Si Nan immediately handed over the letter he had just taken from Lightning, "Please review it, Your Majesty."
Xiao Ji unfolded the letter.
Pei Chen, Xie Yao and Zhao Ying were all watching beside him.
Xie Yao was close to Xiao Ji, so she naturally saw the situation clearly at the first time.
The Northern Frontier is still in civil strife, and what is attacking the Northern Frontier at this moment is naturally not the Northern Frontier army, but an unknown epidemic.
Many people in the North have fallen ill in recent days, and the illnesses are inexplicable and the cause cannot be found.
But the outward appearances of these people were almost the same, so the Wei family became suspicious.
After the study, unknown bugs were found in the bodies of these sick people.
At this moment, many soldiers have fallen in the North, but the Wei family has not yet found a way to deal with it.
Of course, after realizing that there was something wrong with this matter, the Wei family did not and dared not hide it, and immediately sent a message using lightning.
Because the "disease" is progressing too quickly!
And once the disease occurs, it can take a person's life in just two or three days.
When Xiao Ji explained the situation, Pei Chen immediately said, "Your Majesty, there is no time to lose. I will set off for the northern border immediately."
He had come back quietly.
Now that such a situation has occurred in the North, he naturally cannot stay any longer.
Zhao Ying immediately said, "I want to go too."
Pei Chen frowned, with a hint of disapproval in his eyes.
If the Northern Frontier attacked, Pei Chen would not think so. After all, he was confident in facing the Northern Frontier.
But the situation is now unknown, and it is an area that he completely does not understand and has no confidence in.
He was worried that he couldn't protect Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying said, "This is my responsibility. The food and supplies are ready, and it's time to set off."
Pei Chen said: "In that case, we should set off as planned."
As for him, he naturally rushed to the northern border alone in advance.
He thought that it would take at least half a month for Zhao Ying to arrive at the northern border with the food and supplies.
This is the time left for him.
Before that, deal with the situation in the north.
Zhao Ying naturally understood what Pei Chen meant, and immediately looked over with disapproval on her face.
But Pei Chen had no intention of giving in.
He has made up his mind.
Xie Yao didn't rush to speak. Her eyes fell on the word "bug" on the letter paper, and all kinds of suspicions flashed in her eyes.
As soon as she turned to look at Xiao Ji, she saw the same emotion in Xiao Ji's eyes.
Xie Yao understood.
It seems... Your Majesty also doubts this matter.
But this matter was not suitable to be discussed at this moment. Xiao Ji calmed himself down and said quickly, "Marquis Zhenbei, set off immediately and rush to the northern border."
Pei Chen, Marquis of Zhenbei, is the soul of the Zhenbei Army. Right now, he must be here.
"I obey your order!" Pei Chen immediately knelt down and clasped his fists to receive the order.
Xiao Ji looked at Zhao Ying again and said, "Master Zhao, you will need to wait another half day. In addition to the original baggage and food supplies, you will also need to prepare additional medicinal herbs and escort them to the northern border."
There are naturally medicines in the North.
However, wars are frequent in the north, and medicinal materials are highly consumable. Although they are being delivered all the time, the storage capacity is really limited.
Pei Chen heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Although Zhao Ying was somewhat reluctant, he could not disobey Xiao Ji's arrangement, so he could only nod and agree, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Pei Chen immediately prepared to leave.
Xiao Ji said: "Pei Chen, have a safe trip!"
Pei Chen turned around and smiled at them, his eyes finally landing on Zhao Ying. "I will, don't worry."
After saying that, he left the Zhao family without looking back and rode his horse directly towards the city gate.
"Sister Ying..." Xie Yao was still a little worried, but as soon as she opened her mouth, Zhao Ying gave her a reassuring look and said, "I understand."
She doesn't act on impulse.
Although Zhao Ying was very anxious now, she still accompanied Mr. Zhao for dinner before arranging the next things.
Xie Yao and Xiao Ji also left the Zhao family and prepared to return to the palace.
In the carriage, Xie Yao looked at Xiao Ji, and Xiao Ji looked at Xie Yao. Finally, Xie Yao asked, "Your Majesty also has doubts?"
"Yeah." There was no need to explain clearly, the two of them knew that they were thinking the same thing.
"I'll have Sinan deliver the message immediately." Xie Yao said, "Even if this matter has nothing to do with Shanshan's village, Shanshan might have a way."
Xiao Ji thought so too.
"I'm afraid this news will be difficult to pass on." Xiao Ji said, "Have Si Nan pass the message. No matter what means are used, the message must be delivered."
"Okay." Xie Yao nodded. She had the same idea.
Si Nan sent the news to Shu as quickly as possible. At the same time, Zhao Ying in the capital was also making preparations in full swing.
She wished she could split herself into two people.
While I had to do the preparatory work myself, I also wanted to spend more time with Mr. Zhao in the limited time I had.
The next day.
Everything is ready, and Zhao Ying is ready to lead the logistics team to the northern border.
Xie Yao personally led people to the city gate early in the morning.
She brought with her prepared doctors, including several imperial physicians and doctors that Sibei had gathered from various places.
Although many people chose to leave after Xiao Ji was cured, they all left their contact information. A letter was sent to call a few people nearby.
"Sister Ying."
Xie Yao took Zhao Ying's hand and said, "Have a safe trip."
Zhao Ying smiled, "Don't worry."
Zhao Ying did not hesitate and quickly turned the team around and galloped away towards the northern border.
at the same time.
Shu, the village where Shanshan lives.
Si Bei has been detained for five days.
From the day he married Shanshan, he couldn't even go out and was locked in the attic all day.
Aunt Wenshan personally brought people to guard outside the attic.
Shanshan also resisted, but it was useless. She was free, but Sibei absolutely could not leave the house. There were people guarding their house all around.
Sibei couldn't go out, but Shanshan could go out without any obstruction.
After the two discussed, Si Bei stayed in the house quietly, but Shan Shan ran out all day long.
He goes out early and comes back late, and only returns home at dinner time.
But I came back early that day.
She walked in and pulled Si Bei to walk out. Si Bei didn't have time to react and was dragged to the door by Shanshan.
But just as he walked out, Si Bei heard Wen Shan's voice, "Go back!"
Obviously, these impolite words were directed at Si Bei.
Then Wen Shan looked at Shan Shan again and said, "Shan Shan, he can't come out." This matter had been discussed in the village. If Si Bei wanted to stay in the village, it was okay.
I must marry Shanshan as soon as possible.
Even after getting married, they can only stay in the house and cannot go out at will, unless Shanshan is pregnant.
After Shanshan becomes pregnant, Sibei will be free.
The two have only been married for a few days, so it is naturally impossible for Shanshan to get pregnant... Even if Shanshan is pregnant, the tribe members have to diagnose her before releasing Sibei.
It definitely won’t work to bring Si Bei out right now.
Shanshan took Sibei out. Wenshan gave a look and the tribesmen guarding nearby immediately stepped forward, their defensive posture very obvious.
If Shanshan and Sibei were to force their way in... they would not show mercy.
But Shanshan had no intention of backing off. She grabbed Sibei's hand and was about to rush out. Just as they were about to fight, Sibei grabbed Shanshan's hand, turned around and pulled her back into the house.
"Si Bei..."
Shan Shan frowned and was about to speak when she heard Si Bei's calm and steady voice, "What's wrong? What happened? Tell me first."
Shanshan finally realized what was happening outside, but Sibei still didn't know what was happening.
Shanshan said, "Haven't I been investigating the situation in the village these days? I also told you that there are fewer young people in the village."
It was one of them who kidnapped her last time.
"Yeah." Si Bei nodded, understanding Ya's intention from the string music. "Have you found them?"
"Probably." Shanshan's face was not looking good. "I just received news that something happened in the northern border. Xie Yao wrote to say that the soldiers in the northern border were attacked by insects. I suspect it might be related to them."
"There is no time to lose, we'd better go now." Shanshan is impatient.
Si Bei agreed with this and said, "There are people everywhere outside."
Shan Shan was silent for a moment, then took out a dagger and handed it to Si Bei, saying, "Kidnap me. You get out first. I'll find a way to escape after you leave."
Seeing Si Bei remained silent, Shan Shan said, "Don't worry, I'm the future priest of the tribe, they won't ignore me."
"After you leave the village, I will leave quietly. I have experience."
Shanshan's tone was a little proud.
But Si Bei still didn't move.
Shanshan pushed him away, "Don't worry about me, go first..."
"I can't leave." Si Bei looked at Shan Shan and said, "I don't know anything about your poisonous insects. Shan Shan, don't waste time. You go first and leave me in the village."
"Why?" Shan Shan realized something and stared at Si Bei with burning eyes, her eyes full of inquiry, "Why can't I leave?"
Si Bei's face was always expressionless, and at this moment, he still said with a stern face: "If I leave, it will inevitably cause a big commotion, but you can leave quietly by yourself."
"There's no time to lose. If this incident is really related to the people who left the village, you can save more people if you go a day earlier."
"Something's wrong." Shanshan stared at Sibei, her eyes full of suspicion, "Sibei, I remember that day you talked to your mother-in-law alone...
Shanshan asked, "Did they do something to you?"
Si Bei's eyes flickered, "No..."
"You're lying!" Shanshan saw through Sibei's lies. "Tell me, what did they do to you? How could you agree to their terms?"
Xie Yao really treated Shanshan as her younger sister. Not only did she take good care of her in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, she also hired a teacher for her to teach her how to read and write, and to know good and evil, and right and wrong.
So now Shanshan is no longer like when she first left the village, who would take people's lives at will just for her momentary likes and dislikes.
She knew even more clearly that although the elders in the village were very kind to her, they would never show mercy to outsiders.
Even if Si Bei married her, he would still be an outsider and would be an outsider for the rest of his life.
"Shanshan." Si Bei frowned and wanted to explain. Shanshan said, "If you don't tell me, I'll go ask my mother-in-law myself."
She always has a way.
Seeing that Shanshan was about to turn around and leave, Sibei grabbed Shanshan's hand and said, "It is true that there is a poison. As long as I behave myself, nothing will happen."
Shanshan immediately began to pull Sibei to check the situation.
Soon, she understood, "It's the mother-child Gu."
The mother Gu can control the child Gu at any time. As long as the owner of the mother Gu wants, Si Bei can die at any time.
"Are you stupid?" Shan Shan glared at Si Bei. "Weren't you very smart before? You actually agreed to such a request! You——"
