Good Man Operation Guide

Chapter 50 The Princess’s Husband (6) (1/2)

Shen Huan's journey to Nancheng was not very peaceful. After all, what they had to do was a life-threatening matter, and they couldn't just take it easy like a spring outing.

The group of people rode horses and traveled day and night. They only rested for two hours a night. When they woke up and didn't care about anything else, they first put something in their mouths so that they could sit on the horses while eating.

To be honest, even though Shen Huan's father didn't love his brother and was wary of the palace concubine's indifference, he seemed to be living a miserable life. In fact, as one of the only five princes in the palace, he naturally spent a lot of money on food and clothing.

He was able to hold his breath and participate in the battle for the rightful daughter with all his heart. Apart from the bullying from his brothers when he was young and the contempt and casual use of him when he was older, he just wanted to support his eldest sister.

He is not stupid. The four brothers above are not good people. Each one is more petty than the last. He has done nothing and has been plotted several times. He just wanted to wait until he grows up and leaves the palace to open a palace and become an idle prince. Shen Hu'an, who was living his daily life, was forced to become a middle-aged boy who racked his brains every day and thought that I must be the emperor and step on all of you.

Anyway, no matter which brother comes to power, neither he nor his sister will end well, so what are you waiting for?

Clear the obstacles, drive away your brother, and enjoy the throne alone.

Everything is perfect, but the ideal is huge, but it is very difficult to implement it.

In the past, Shen Hu'an had pretended not to like reading when he was a child in order to protect himself. He was still pretending before, but after pretending for a long time, he really didn't like reading anymore.

The princes can rely on their father's love and mother's maternal family to win the heir. However, his biological mother died early, and his grandfather, although he was a great scholar, also died early. Now only his grandmother and uncle are left in Nancheng.

His sister was hurriedly accused of getting married. Although he went to order troops the day before yesterday and didn't see the appearance of his future prince-in-law, he also knew that he was from a poor family.

There is nothing to rely on external forces alone.

Then, you can only rely on yourself.

In fact, Shen Huan is not afraid of this trip to Nancheng. He naturally knows that he will definitely not get the throne if he lives peacefully in the palace every day. Therefore, although he is worried about his sister and hates his father's cruelty, he is still looking forward to this trip. of.

At least, he could be the first to save his grandmother and uncle's family.

It was a wonderful thought. When he finally arrived at his destination after traveling day and night, Shen Huan was helped off his horse.

Everyone knows that riding a horse is fast, but you cannot ride for a long time, otherwise the thighs on both sides will be sore and painful, and because of the location of the injury, if you want to make yourself less painful, you must separate it. Legs walking.

Spreading your legs is equivalent to being indecent.

He is the fifth prince, even if it hurts to death, he will never spread his legs!

Shen Hu'an had a cold face and took the sword handed over by his subordinates with one hand. He looked around at his subordinates whose thighs were slightly apart and couldn't see it unless they looked carefully, and withdrew his gaze with disdain.

Sure enough, it wasn't just him who was in pain, others were in pain too.

Before taking two steps, he also spread his legs slightly.

Shen Huan almost vomited as soon as he entered Nancheng.

Originally, when he was outside, he thought the smell was a bit weird, but because the city gate was closed and the place where they dismounted was not very close, he never expected that this smell actually came from inside Nancheng.

The smell was very weird. Generally speaking, it smelled like burnt corpses, rotting meat, and things excreted by part of the human body.

Although his face was covered with a white cloth to prevent infection, the smell still drifted along the wind and reached Shenhu An's nose.

He originally thought this was the ultimate.

As a result, when I lowered my head, in addition to some messy bits and pieces, there was actually "gold" all over the ground.

At this moment, he is still an innocent little prince who has never seen filth except his own things since he was a child. Although he forced himself to learn a lot in order to become the emperor, he still showed a stable and reliable appearance in front of his eldest sister. , but essentially, he is still a prince who has never left the imperial city.

Fortunately, although he was curious, Shen Huan did not ask the unfamiliar soldiers. Instead, he asked the guards who had been following him, "Why don't they find a Gongtong."

Is it really okay to just put it all over the place so carelessly?

The guard looked a little embarrassed and replied in a low voice, "Your Highness, there must be no respectful bucket here."

You can't pull it directly to the ground without a Gongtong.

Shen Huan's heart was filled with sadness for the people in Nancheng who didn't care about hygiene.

He could only avoid them carefully while looking ahead, trying his best to look like he didn't care about the messy things on the ground.

As we all know, Nancheng has two gates.

The position where they are standing now is between the first city gate and the second city gate. With the soldiers covered in white cloth behind them, they ordered the people inside to open the city gate, and a stronger smell immediately invaded. Everyone standing here.

Shen Huan did not bother to blame the people of Nancheng for not caring about hygiene.

Countless people wearing dusty clothes mixed with mud, sand and filth fell weakly to the ground and leaned against the wall. Everyone's face was lifeless, except for low wails that seemed to be unable to come out if they were higher. No one reacted to the group of soldiers and horses sent by the capital who opened the city gate and came in.

No one greeted them, and no one rejoiced because they were about to die.

Not just them, but also their relatives.

Shen Hu'an stood there blankly, looking at this scene that could be called a place full of people but full of mess. The counselor he knew in his mind said lightly: "If His Majesty orders the diversion, the people of Nancheng who have already suffered natural disasters will suffer again." **, there must be no survivors." Only then did he completely tear off the layer of understatement, exposing his naked body in front of him.

These are all living people, not the numbers of dead people reported in the court newspaper.

He was frightened.

At this moment, Shen Hu'an even wanted to go back to the capital to find his sister. She would definitely comfort him and tell him not to be afraid.

But he can't.

Shen Hu'an could only walk forward bravely, passing by the ashen-faced people and their eyes without any emotion.

When he reached the two children, his steps suddenly stopped.

They were two civilian children. The older one looked to be seven or eight years old, and the younger one was four or five years old. They must be siblings, because the younger boy kept shouting "Sister, I hurt", and the older girl's lips Desperately but still trying hard to hold his brother to comfort him, he patted his back time and time again.

Both of them had pockmarks on their faces, obviously suffering from the plague.

The guard on the side asked doubtfully, "Your Highness?"

Shen Hu watched the scene in front of him calmly, "Didn't the imperial doctor say that he wanted to find someone to test the medicine? Go and ask them if they are willing."

The guard agreed and stepped forward to ask a few questions. The younger brother was young and could only cry out for pain, but the older sister was still a half-grown child. She raised her face covered with dust and looked at the front of her with a pair of dark pupils, even though she was wearing armor. The luxurious people hugged their brother tightly and nodded in agreement.

Even if you don't try the medicine, you will still be dead in the end, it would be better to give it a try.

With these siblings, a group of people went to the prefect's mansion. No one was standing guard at the gate of the prefect's mansion, and the door was closed. It was obviously caused by the plague.

Shen Huan, who had been trying to keep a cold expression on his face so as not to let the soldiers behind him treat him like a child, suddenly paused nervously, clenched his fists and motioned to his subordinates to knock on the door.

The governor of Nancheng is his and his sister's biological uncle.

It's just that Nancheng is small and it's right next to the border. Even the governor can't go to the emperor during the New Year. Uncles can't enter the capital without an imperial edict, but women like aunts can, but foreign ministers can't enter the palace without an edict from a concubine. Shen Hu An's mother After dying young, there would be no palace concubine who would be so kind as to help the two of them to be summoned into the palace. Therefore, Shenhu An has never met anyone on her mother's side even though she is so old.

His sister actually told him that before his mother passed away when he was a child, his aunt had visited them in the palace and hugged him, but he could no longer remember clearly.

Since he and his sister had not yet married and lived in the palace, courtiers outside could receive gifts from everywhere at the end of every year, but the princes and daughters who lived in the palace could not accept gifts at all. Therefore, over the years, , let alone his maternal uncle’s appearance, he has never even received a letter.

The emotion of seeing the victims just now faded slightly, and Shen Huan felt a little nervous about meeting his unmasked relatives.

He once heard from his sister that his grandfather was a great scholar in the world and had countless disciples when he was still alive. Although he did not want to become an official in the court, all of his disciples were officials, which can be said to be very prestigious.

It’s just that grandpa himself is indifferent to fame and fortune and doesn’t care about these. My sister said that grandpa has a long white beard and gray hair. He always wears robes with fluttering sleeves. Although he is old, he is in good spirits, but he is a little unsmiling and treats them However, her siblings were very caring and even taught her how to practice calligraphy.

Although my grandfather has passed away, my uncle is his biological son, so he must have similar appearance and demeanor.

Seeing the door open, Shen Hu'an coughed lightly, tried not to show curiosity and expectation in his eyes, and strode into the prefect's mansion.

"My lord is in the study. Please come here with me, Your Highness."

It stands to reason that when the prince comes to the prefect's mansion, everyone in the prefect's mansion will come out and kneel to greet him. However, it is said that there are many diseases in the prefect's mansion, and the masters in the mansion are too sick to get out of bed. Previously, Shen Hu'an's uncle was still thinking about being forced to be with those who were not sick. The servant came to greet him with support, but it was really difficult to support him, so he had to be rude for a while.

Shen Huan looked a little nervous, "How is uncle?"

The boy obviously knew about the relationship between the prince in front of him and his master. Nono nodded and said cautiously, "Your Excellency, you accidentally contracted the disease three days ago while handling the corpses of people who died of illness. This is the most dangerous time."

The image of a thin, middle-aged man who was bedridden, pale and coughing up blood immediately appeared in Shen Huan's mind.

His face turned pale, and he quickly urged the servant to take him to the study without caring about showing off the dignity and calmness of the prince.

Opening the study, I saw someone lying on the bed.

He was so weak that he could only kneel on the ground with the support of the attendants beside him, "My lord, Liu Qingxian pays homage to the fifth prince."

Shen Huan looked at the man in front of him stiffly.

Yes, his uncle's name is Liu Qingxian, a name that makes people full of expectations for a beautiful man.

But the man kneeling in front of him now was a man with a cheeky face, bronze skin, and a strong figure even in illness. He could reach Shen Huan's chest when he knelt.

Even if he is young and has not yet grown up, his height is still too terrifying.

Perhaps Shen Huan's eyes were too dull, and Liu Qingxian's eyes looked slightly confused, and he was suffocated again.

His eyes were very suspicious, but with such big eyes and beard, it looked like he was glaring at people.

Shen Hu'an stiffly loosened his fists that had been clenched nervously before, and said dryly, "Uncle, please get up."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Even though he was weak, his voice still sounded like a bell in his ears.

Uncle Liu Qingxian was helped to stand up reluctantly. Once he stood like this, Shen Huan wanted to look up to him.

His expression became stiffer and stiffer, and he coughed dryly, "Uncle is not feeling well, so he went to bed to rest. I am his nephew and not an outsider, so why should I care about these falsehoods."

Liu Qingxian, who was supported by the boy and looked down at him, showed some relief in his eyes, "In this case, I will not be polite."

So Shen Hu'an stared stiffly at his uncle being supported by the servant and sitting on the bed. Although the huge size made him very doubtful that his uncle would collapse the study, which he could tell was just used for taking a nap, but fortunately Sitting like this, at least he no longer had to raise his head to look up at his uncle.

The uncle looked at him lovingly. Although he was too weak to move, he still sighed loudly, "In the blink of an eye, Your Highness has grown so big."

Shen Huan laughed dryly.

"I still remember that time, His Highness was just born, and I was fortunate enough to get His Majesty's permission to visit His Highness. At that time, His Highness was lying in swaddling clothes, as if he was no bigger than the palm of my hand. Now, he can actually reach the position of my chest."

Shen Huan looked stiffly at his uncle's palm that fell outside the quilt.

Not as if, just.

Also, uncle, you are overthinking. I didn’t reach your chest. It was only when you lowered your head and bent your waist that I could reach your chest.

He struggled to recall what his sister had said about his mother's family.

My grandfather was a great scholar, my grandmother came from a wealthy and scholarly family, and although my aunt was not born into a wealthy family, my father was also a civil servant who resigned from office.

No matter from top to bottom or from inside to outside, no matter how you look at it, you are a bunch of scholars.

So, what went wrong.

"Master Liu, the governor of Nancheng, is the uncle of the eldest princess and the fifth prince. He is born with supernatural powers. He can lift huge rocks at the age of three. He practices martial arts with a martial arts master at the age of five. He can lift a giant cauldron at the age of ten. At the age of twenty-five, he once led a The soldiers fought back the 3,000 Xiongnu who had crossed the border. They were just worried about the imperial court punishing them and went to war with the Xiongnu privately without reporting it to the imperial court. He has a high prestige among the soldiers and generals in Nancheng. Such a powerful person will definitely be able to help the Fifth Highness. "

Zhao He sat across from his friend in confusion and listened, "But I remember that the prefect is a civil servant."

Shouldn't this deed make him a military attache?

"Master Liu really wanted to take the military attache exam when he was young, but His Majesty rejected him. He said that since his father was a great scholar in the world, it is only right for a son to inherit his father's legacy, so he became the governor of Nancheng. He served for more than ten years. Years have not moved.”

Although Zhao He was born in a merchant family and no one was an official, he had fervently made up a lot of knowledge about the field since he entered school. He was stunned when he heard the last sentence.

"No action for more than ten years?"

It shouldn’t be. It’s rare for officials in this dynasty to remain unchanged for more than ten years. Either they will be promoted if they do well, or they will be demoted or transferred out of the place if they do not do well. On the one hand, they are worried that officials will be replaced if they stay for a long time. The superiors don’t know which place they regard as their own. On the one hand, even if they only stay in one place, their political achievements are just that, and it is difficult to get promoted. In short, they just want to be stationary for a year or two. Not so good.

Looking at Lin Shiheng, who was still sitting quietly across from him, his mind was racing, "Your Majesty...do you not value the fifth prince's mother's family?"

This was said tactfully. What he actually wanted to say more was that although he himself thought Brother Lin was very good, he was also a student from a poor family. He married the eldest princess to a poor family and married the youngest who had never left the capital. His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince was sent to Nancheng where the plague was breaking out. The two uncles were obviously more suitable as military attachés but were forced to become civil servants and did not move their positions for more than ten years. This was not unfavored, but simply disliked.

Lin Shiheng lowered his head and smiled, with some sarcasm in his downcast eyes, "When Your Majesty ascended the throne, Liu Gong was very popular. Although he was not an official, many court officials were his students. Your Majesty had just ascended the throne that day, and it was the time when he was at his peak. Although the late emperor had promised Liu Gong not to enter the court as an official, he still issued an edict asking Liu Gong to enter the court. "

"I know this."

Zhao He said, "After Mr. Liu refused, your majesty admired Mr. Liu for being indifferent and not interested in fame and wealth, and he admired him so much that he married Mr. Liu's daughter as his concubine."

Being indifferent and not admiring fame and fortune is true, but admiration is false.

A novice emperor who had just ascended the throne and believed that the whole world belonged to him was so satisfied that he was unwilling to let a great scholar enter the court as an official. In addition, after he issued the edict, a group of civil servants kept saying that since the late emperor had already Promising him to do this is unreasonable. How could the novice emperor not be angry?

He is the emperor, the lord of the world, but he is opposed by so many people.

Of course, the emperor at that time would not think about this matter because of the late emperor's promise, so there were so many people who opposed it. He would only think about which of these people were disciples of Liu Gong, and which of them were good friends with Liu Gong.

Although they were all civil servants, this incident made him realize very uncomfortably that between himself, the emperor, and Liu Gong, these officials who were eating his salary chose Liu Gong.

Okay, aren’t you on Mr. Liu’s side? Don’t they all think that Liu Gong should be indifferent to fame and fortune?

The late emperor once promised that Liu Gong could become an official without entering the court, but he never said that his daughter could not enter the harem as a concubine.

With an imperial edict, Duke Liu's old daughter was sent to the palace, and she became Concubine Liu who died early, leaving only a pair of unprotected children.

At that time, the emperor also investigated clearly when he recruited the Liu family daughter into the palace. Although she did not have a marriage contract, she had acquiesced in marrying her natal cousin. If nothing else happened, the Liu family daughter would marry this natal cousin.

The novice emperor took this accident very willfully.

He recruited people into the palace at that time just to express his anger because the Manchu Dynasty opposed allowing Liu Gong to enter the court as an official.

As a result, after Liu's daughter entered the palace, the emperor began to fall in love with this woman with stunning appearance, full of fragrance and gentle temperament.

The two of them had a very happy time, otherwise Shen Huyang would not be the eldest princess, let alone be given the rank of "Hu" that only a prince could have.

After the sweetness, the emperor's temperament of loving the new and hating the old came out again. It happened to be another year's general election. He went to that palace today and this palace tomorrow. Life was so happy. His daughter's family was always worried, and the emperor was gentle to him before. Of course Liu's daughter would be sad if she fell in love with someone else.

She is not one of those girls from aristocratic families who have been taught since childhood that "you have to be a good housewife. If your husband likes other women, you should take the initiative to help him accept them. Anyway, the contract of sale is in your hands." Liu Gong is devoted to his wife and she is the only one in his life. He treated his sister-in-law in the same way, but she was admitted to the palace. The emperor was destined to have three thousand beauties in the harem, and he would not only love her.

If the emperor doesn't care about her, it's okay for her to be sad for a while. People can see reality and adapt to a new life anyway.

But the emperor noticed this sadness.

He didn't think about 'she is unhappy because I dote on other concubines', but a flash of thought occurred, and his thoughts fell on 'even if she marries me, she still thinks about her maternal cousin'.

As soon as he realized that he might have been cuckolded, the emperor became furious.

In his anger, he was even more unwilling to go to Concubine Liu's palace, and continued to live a life of going here and there but not coming to your place.

Concubine Liu became increasingly sad, and it was at this time that she found out she was pregnant.

So what if she was just pregnant, the emperor didn't care about her, and the child she gave birth to was still abandoned by her father like the eldest daughter.

And at this time, the emperor actually asked her brother, who had always liked Wu, to become a civil servant.

What if my brother doesn’t communicate well with his civilian subordinates and gets angry and beats them to death?

Concubine Liu was even more sad.

The emperor noticed her sadness again.

He was so angry this time.

She is pregnant with my dragon and still depressed, how can she not have anyone in her heart!

In anger, he stopped going to Concubine Liu's palace completely.

The emperor would naturally not think about the life of an unloved concubine. He only knew that after giving birth to the fifth prince, Concubine Liu begged him to let her mother-in-law come to the palace to meet him. Not long after the Liu family left the palace, Liu Concubine The concubine passed away, leaving only a pair of children with no one to care for her.

The emperor was always worried about the possibility that Concubine Liu had someone in her heart.

After all, if he hadn't investigated that Concubine Liu almost married her maternal cousin before, he wouldn't have been holding such a thorn in his heart.

But speaking of it, if he had not investigated that Concubine Liu was tacitly allowed to marry her maternal cousin and that Duke Liu was very satisfied with the marriage, he would not have made Concubine Liu a concubine just to make Duke Liu feel his aggrievedness. .

Naturally, no one could know about his crazy thoughts, so the eldest princess and the fifth prince, the poor siblings, were inexplicably disliked by their father.

Fortunately for the fifth prince, he has not been taken seriously since he was a child and has long been used to it.

The eldest princess, Shen Huyang, remembered things from a young age, and she remembered only a few details about how her father doted on her and how he suddenly became indifferent to her.

The other sisters were envious of her being able to get a Huyang name that ranked as high as the prince's. When she was a child, she didn't envy her sisters for being loved by their father.

"I have already written a letter back home. We always have good horses at home to transport urgent goods. If nothing happens, we should be able to reach Nancheng soon."

Zhao He didn't know these old things and was still banging his hand on the table seriously and said, "This time, my family should listen to me and transport all the medicinal materials in stock. I just don't know if it will be enough."

"Brother Zhao, does he know the approximate quantity?"

Zhao He said that he was a member of the Zhao family after all, and even if he was busy studying, his parents would not hide these things from him.

Lin Shiheng nodded, "The medicinal materials given by the imperial court and donated by Brother Zhao's family, although it is a bit reluctant, should be able to survive."

"reluctantly?"

Zhao He was a little surprised, "Didn't the imperial court provide enough medicinal materials? I thought it was just a few at most."

"In case of emergency, it can only be obtained from the national treasury. However, it is His Majesty's private treasury after all, and there will be no excess. In addition, the officials preparing these will exclude some people who 'may die'."

"This is a time when human lives are at stake, why is the court still so stingy!"

Zhao He slammed the table and stood up angrily, "If you give me more medicinal materials, I will save more lives!!"

Lin Shiheng shook his head and said nothing.

It is still difficult to get the court to pay, especially for a small place that the court doesn't like very much.

"By the way, Brother Lin, I have already prepared the flying pigeon you asked me to prepare for you. I asked my shopkeeper in Beijing to bring it to you. It can fly directly to the shopkeeper's home in Nancheng."

"Thank you, Brother Zhao."

"you are welcome."

Zhao He smiled heartily, "I just hope that if His Highness the Fifth Prince gets his wish in the future, Brother Lin can give me some support."

Lin Shiheng paused in salute and raised his head with a slight smile on his face.

"nature."

"I just don't know when Brother Zhao knew that Brother Yu wanted to help the Fifth Highness?"

Zhao He smiled a little proudly, looking at his friend in front of him with some admiration in his eyes.

"Brother Lin must have already calculated that the Fifth Highness would be sent to the capital when he answered the question? You asked me to donate medicinal materials and give the plague prescription. It was all your calculations."

The more Zhao He talked about it, the brighter his eyes became, "After I went back that day, the more I thought about it, the more wrong it became. Brother Lin, a noble man like you who is indifferent to fame and wealth, how could you let me donate medicinal materials for my official position? There must be something more profound. After thinking about it for a whole night, I finally came to a clear understanding. On the day His Majesty the Fifth Highness left the city, Brother Lin, you borrowed a carriage to see off the Fifth Highness outside the city. Although Brother Lin had already obtained His Majesty's will and was about to become the Prince Consort, But if we didn’t have any friendship before, how could we see each other off?”

"The plague prescription, the donation of medicinal materials, and even the marriage of the princess must have been discussed long ago by Brother Lin and His Highness the Fifth Prince."

"This means that you have known each other for a long time. You should know each other before the palace examination, no, before the general examination!"

Zhao He's tone became more and more excited. By the end, he couldn't help but feel filled with excitement that "my friend has no plans to do anything but make a big deal quietly". He folded his palms and bowed to Lin Shiheng. Bow down.

"Brother Lin has a profound plan and a broad thinking. I am willing to be defeated."

Watching him again, Lin Shiheng made a lot of wrong calculations and finally got the correct result, waving his sleeves and bowing indifferently.

"Brother Zhao, thank you."

Although I didn’t quite understand it, I was praising him anyway.

Just return the gift.

Shen Hu'an, who had no idea what was happening in the capital at the moment, was frowning at the list of personnel given by his seriously ill uncle.

"There are so many people in need of treatment now? But the list given by the court is at least half less than this."

When he saw the list given by the imperial court, he thought that Nancheng was pitiful. It was a small city, but after a disaster, there were only so few people left. But now, when he saw it, it was completely different from the imperial court.

But the imperial court allocates herbs to save people according to the numbers on the list!

Now, the pulses of the two siblings, the imperial doctor, have gradually stabilized. Although the pockmarks on their faces are still there, they have not vomited again, and they both fell asleep peacefully.

In other words, this recipe is effective.

When Shen Hu'an excitedly announced that he would quickly prepare medicine to save people, he learned that there were not enough medicinal materials? ?

This is simply a pouring of cold water on Shen Huan, who has been experiencing twists and turns since leaving Beijing.

Not even after the cold water was poured on him, a strong wind blew up and chilled him to the bone. He wanted to rush into the capital with his sword and chop the officials who had arranged it in this way into three pieces!

Liu Qingxian was not as angry as the young Shen Hu'an, but was very accustomed to saying, "The imperial court has always acted like this. Instead of being angry, His Highness, it is better to find a pharmacy in the city as soon as possible and get the money to buy the medicinal materials from me."

"How can I let my uncle go out? My uncle's house is poor and his life is already difficult. I also brought some silver when I came this time. It's good for me to come."

Shen Hu'an, who was really poor, had to stand up and send someone to buy herbal medicines. Even if there was no one in the pharmacy, he still had to record the quantity, and when everything settled down, he would return the money spent on the medicinal materials at the market price.

This is what the unknown official said in the letter to him, and it was also specifically marked that if the place is unowned, Shen Huan must have someone put up a notice after sending someone to take away the contents. First, to prevent the owner from not knowing where he is when he returns. Where to get the money? The second is to let the people of Nancheng know that the fifth prince is a good prince who will give money after taking things.

Shen Huan curled his lips, he was a good prince to begin with.

Although I still had some doubts about the person's identity, looking at the letter, it seemed that everything he said was correct. Along the way, I tried the so-called imperial method mentioned above.

Although he is interested in "finding a forest to pee with his subordinates", "eating dry, hard and unpalatable dry food with his subordinates", and "no matter how scared he is when encountering danger, he must hold on and draw his sword to protect the subordinates behind him." "Looks like, even if any subordinate takes him out, he doesn't need his protection." There were doubts about this method, but after it was done, Shen Hu'an was surprised to find that the soldiers and generals who originally looked at him with a little contempt actually really looked at him. He made out a lot.

The specific implementation was when he endured the unpleasant taste and had to eat dry food. The soldiers who followed him presented him with a piece of dried meat.

There was only one piece, but Shen Huan, who had never tasted meat since leaving Beijing, almost cried after eating it.

He actually wanted to stop his horse and hunt a rabbit to satisfy his craving, but the letter said that he and his subordinates must act like "I will eat whatever you eat." Shen Hu'an also wanted everyone to hunt rabbits and eat rabbits together. But later he said that he had to travel day and night without wasting time, especially he couldn't let others think that he, the prince, really couldn't bear hardships and had to eat wild game on the way to save people.

Shen Hu'an, who really couldn't bear hardships, suffered greatly along the way. He thought about giving up countless times, but then he thought about his great wish, so he persisted.

Fortunately, although he felt that he had suffered a lot, when he arrived in Nancheng, the soldiers looked at him with admiration and admiration. Some even took the initiative to talk to him, and the words were very intimate, so Shen Huan no longer struggled. The next arrangements will be made directly according to the instructions in the letter.

First find the patients who are testing the medicine, wait until the prescription is confirmed to be effective, then tell all the soldiers to dispel their fear that they may be infected with the plague, and then arrange for these soldiers to work.

Before you start working, you have to say something.

Shen Hu'an took out the letter and read it. He was afraid that he wouldn't know how to say what he had written down. He memorized it silently and then put the letter back in his pocket.

Then he coughed and walked to the spacious training ground of the Prefect's Mansion.

As for why there is a martial arts training ground in the civil servant's house and the two huge and terrifying hammers on the martial arts training ground, it is not important.

Shen Hu'an stood above, looking at the densely packed soldiers below who lined up outside the prefect's mansion. They were wearing armor and holding spears. They all quietly raised their heads and looked at him, with conviction written in their eyes.

Shen Hu'an, who was a little nervous at first, became even more nervous. Fortunately, he had a good memory and recited what was written in the letter.

"Before, I was worried about being tired all the way, and the illness was not removed, so I just let you rest. Now that the imperial doctor has come to report that the illness has been cured, you officers and soldiers will go with me to distribute the medicine to the people."

"Everyone, remember, firstly, you must not be violent to the people, secondly, you must not take people's private belongings! Thirdly, you must not leave the city without permission, can you answer me?!"

The soldiers below responded immediately and loudly at the top of their lungs.

"yes!!"

"Follow what His Highness said!!"

At this moment, I saw so many people standing underneath, walking in neat steps and wearing the same armor, looking at me.

The eyes of admiration and admiration seemed to be looking at their master.

Shen Huan was relieved.

In the past, there was only a general idea of ​​wanting to sit on the dragon's throne, which was completely strengthened.

At this moment, what he was thinking was that if he wore a dragon robe in the future, the number standing underneath would no longer be a thousand soldiers but ten thousand or even a hundred thousand.

He stood on a high place, and the soldiers and generals stood below, looking at him like this.

How desirable that scene would be.

Shen Hu'an clenched his fists. The tension in his heart was obviously gone, but his heart was still beating excitedly.

At this moment, he finally clearly understood what he wanted.

The throne! !

He wants to ascend the throne and protect his sister!

Thinking of the day when he would support his sister in the future, Shen Hu'an's expression became cold, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly with pride.

What we have to do now is to handle the matter in Nancheng properly according to the letter given by the gentleman who didn't tell his name but could see that he had a groove in his chest, so that his father would be impressed. It would be great if we could get to know that gentleman after returning to Beijing. Yes, such a powerful person must be paid into his own account.

When he ascends the throne with the help of his husband, he will be like the late emperor. If the consort is not good to his sister, he can expel the consort at will! !

Shen Huan believes that that day will never be far away!

But after returning to Beijing, the first thing he had to do was to scare the consort so that he would not dare to be disrespectful to his sister.
