After rebirth, the little junior sister’s salty life

Late at night, officials from the entire Jiangnan region were suddenly awakened by a series of hurried knocks on the door, and were then hurriedly taken by guards to the courtyard of His Royal Highness the Second Prince.

These officials looked at each other with sleepy eyes and confused faces, not knowing what was going on. At this time, Liu Peng also tried to keep himself awake and carefully observed his colleagues around him.

"What is going on?" an official couldn't help but ask, "Why did His Highness summon us here at this time?"

Others echoed, "Yes, Lord Liu, you are usually responsible for conveying the instructions and news of His Royal Highness the Second Prince, so you must know something, right?"

Facing everyone's questioning, Liu Peng was also confused. He shook his head and said, "I really don't know. I left the yard early tonight. At that time, His Royal Highness the Second Prince did not give me any hints or instructions!" He was full of doubts and confusion, and he didn't understand why this happened.

At this moment, the courtyard was filled with a tense atmosphere, and everyone was guessing what might happen next. Liu Peng couldn't help but recall what he had done after leaving the courtyard, but no matter what, he couldn't remember anything unusual. Did His Royal Highness the Second Prince change his plans temporarily? Or was there some other reason for this emergency meeting?

Just as everyone was lost in thought, suddenly, a low voice broke the silence: "My Lords, please be quiet." Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw His Royal Highness the Second Prince slowly walking out of the room with a mysterious smile on his face.

When everyone saw the Second Prince suddenly appear before them, they all knelt down in panic and saluted:

\"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Second Prince! I wonder why His Royal Highness summoned us so late at night?\"

\"Please stand up quickly, everyone." The Second Prince said with a serious face, \"It's nothing serious, but I just received a tip-off that the situation in North City and West City has been quite turbulent recently. \"

Upon hearing this, the officials, who were originally bleary-eyed and confused, suddenly woke up as if they had been enlightened. They looked at each other, wondering secretly who had leaked the news.

At this time, Liu Peng quickly stepped forward and said with a flattering look on his face:

\"Your Highness, please be wise! Someone must have deliberately framed us. Now everything is fine in North City and West City. The people live a prosperous life and everyone lives and works in peace and contentment. It can be said that there is peace and prosperity and everyone is happy! \"

"Oh, really?" Fu Jingheng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looking at the trembling officials below with a smile. His nonchalant look made it difficult to guess what he was thinking.

The other officials looked at each other, and saw a trace of fear and uneasiness in each other's eyes. They whispered to themselves, wondering how much the Second Prince knew. However, no one dared to speak easily, for fear that saying the wrong thing would bring about a fatal disaster.

Liu Peng's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He tried to stay calm and replied with gritted teeth: "That's true, Your Highness." At this moment, he had realized that the Second Prince in front of him was no ordinary person. A few days ago, Fu Jingheng pretended to be a dandy who was addicted to wine and sex, and successfully confused everyone's sight. But now it seems that all this is just a disguise he carefully planned.

Liu Peng knew that he could not escape. He thought to himself and decided to stick to his position and not show weakness to Fu Jingheng easily. After all, things had come to this point. If he gave in easily, the consequences would be disastrous. So he straightened his body and looked at Fu Jingheng firmly.

"Since you are so sure, let's go and take a look at West City at night. Everyone is asleep now, so there won't be any disturbance, right?"

Fu Jingheng looked at the others calmly, but in fact his heart was already turbulent. He wanted to see how sincere these people were when they said they wanted to go to Xicheng.

When they heard that they were going to West City, they immediately became a little hesitant. After all, West City is now a very dangerous place, and most of the residents there are infected with serious diseases, and this disease is highly contagious, and they may be infected if they are not careful.

At this time, one of them stood up and said, "Your Highness, it is getting late now and the people in the city have all gone to sleep. Why don't we wait until tomorrow morning, when we are fully prepared, and then go to the West City together to welcome the Second Prince."

Fu Jingheng's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He sneered, "Oh? Make arrangements, what kind of arrangements? Are you trying to take this opportunity to kill me and silence me?"

When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked and they all knelt down and begged for mercy, saying that they absolutely had no such idea.

Fu Jingheng knew that these people were just opportunists, and when they really encountered something, they would probably run faster than anyone else. But at this moment, he didn't want to get too entangled with these people, because he had more important things to do - investigating the truth of the epidemic in Xicheng.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, I am telling the truth!" Suddenly, a man came out trembling, staggering, and then knelt down with a thud.

"Your Highness, the people in West City... they are all infected with the plague! The disease is highly contagious, so they have been detained in West City, leaving their fate to God and to fend for themselves!" As soon as this person finished speaking, there was an uproar at the scene, but it soon became quiet again because everyone knelt on the ground in unison with their heads down. No one dared to say a word for fear of angering the Second Prince.

Fu Jingheng clenched his teeth and clenched his fists. In fact, he already knew what happened in Xicheng, but when he heard such a cruel fact from others, he still couldn't accept it.

After a moment of silence, Fu Jingheng took a deep breath and said firmly: "Immediately find a doctor in the city and go to West City with me to rescue! My lords, if you don't want to be implicated after this matter is settled, then quickly contact various pharmacies and prepare sufficient medicinal materials!"

"Yes, yes, Your Highness, we will do it immediately!" The officials who were kneeling on the ground stood up in horror and hurriedly left the yard to prepare the necessary medicinal materials.

Qing Ning walked out slowly from behind him, staring at him.

"This plague is coming fiercely and the situation is quite serious. The assistance I can provide is very limited. However, I have a bottle of magic water here that can help you. As for how to use it and how many lives you can save, it all depends on your piety. If you are extremely sincere, you may be able to save many people; on the contrary, if you lack sincerity, then you can only watch them die."

She did not lend a helping hand directly because this was not the real world and the life and death of these people had no impact on the real world, so she did not care.

Fu Jingheng held the bottle tightly, staring at the liquid inside, wondering in his heart: What on earth is this? However, deep in his heart, he had an intuition that this must be holy water that can save lives.

Before long, the doctors and necessary medicinal materials were all ready, and these dignitaries changed out of their solemn official uniforms and put on light, flexible and action-friendly private clothes, and followed closely behind His Royal Highness the Second Prince and came to West City together.

Looking at the closed door, Fu Jingchen's face sank slightly, and he immediately ordered his men to open the door.

\"Hurry up and open this door for me!\"

\"Yes, sir!\"

At this moment, no one dared to disobey his will. As the door slowly opened, everyone was stunned by the scene before them.

There were many corpses lying in all directions on the wide street, and the air was filled with a disgusting stench that was simply unbearable.

Fu Jingheng suppressed the severe discomfort in his stomach, carefully avoided the corpses lying on the ground, and walked towards the city.

His Royal Highness the Second Prince has already entered the city, and the other officials naturally did not dare to be negligent. They followed him nervously and entered the city step by step.

As we continued to move forward, our vision gradually became clearer, and we saw pale and dying people huddled under dilapidated thatched huts, struggling to survive.

Seeing this, the doctors rushed forward without hesitation and quickly began to diagnose. They carefully felt the pulse of each survivor, their expressions focused and serious. After a while, one of the older doctors walked over hurriedly.

\"Your Highness, the condition of these people is very bad. Their bodies are extremely weak. If effective treatment measures are not taken in time, the consequences will be disastrous." The doctor said in a serious tone.

Hearing this, the man known as the "Second Prince" frowned and gave the order without hesitation: "What are you waiting for? Treat him quickly!"

Everyone was shocked and stunned for a moment. They thought that the Second Prince was just symbolically going through the motions, pretending to show his concern for the people. Who would have thought that he came here sincerely to save these patients?

The doctor came back to his senses as if awakened from a dream, nodded repeatedly, then turned around and went to a relatively clean place to write a prescription.

\"Go check the prescription written by the doctor, and then boil the medicine immediately. Act quickly!" The Second Prince immediately ordered.

\"As you command, Your Highness!\" The attendant who received the instruction acted immediately and quickly left to carry out the mission.
