Prince, kneel down quickly, the lady can't run away

"Meet the Governor" Warm the wine and pay a simple respect

"Miss Wen, you are welcome. Please sit down and eat something. You don't look well. Be careful that your brother might get mad again." Gu Xiao smiled and asked someone to serve some breakfast.

"I..." Wen Jiu wanted to say no, but since she didn't know Gu Xiao, she had to stop being so anxious. She was also afraid that her brother would get mad. When she got to the military camp, she would twist his ears to death. Humph

The noisy noise outside continued, and Wen Jiu was eating without distraction. The two were just competing to see who could hold back first. Wen Jiu had to admire Gu Xiao. Just when she was about to speak, Gu Xiao asked, "Miss Wen, you just saw what happened, why haven't you asked until now?"

"Oh? Don't talk while eating or sleeping, isn't this the most basic rule? I'm eating." Wen Jiu looked at him innocently.

"Miss Wen is really not the type to be a rich lady. A common rich lady would faint on the spot. Your maid is not simple either, and you can still eat it. It's interesting," Gu Xiao said so much, which was rare.

"That's right. After all, I grew up in the mountains. Problems can't be solved by fainting and shouting, right? My maid knows some martial arts, otherwise she might be covered in bones on the way back to the capital. I'm sorry to make a fool of myself, Governor. To put it nicely, I'm calm and collected, but to put it bluntly, I'm just indifferent to people and things. I only care about the people I care about, and I'll just stay away from other people, which is what people call a cold-hearted person!" Wen Jiu smiled and looked at the beauty in front of him, wiping his mouth.

“This is very similar to me.”

"How did the governor suspect that those two were acting? It looked very real to me. Aren't you afraid of killing the wrong people?"

"Miss Wen, you can easily say that you killed someone. It seems that Miss Wen is different from the rumors. Except for her weak body, there is nothing else that fits her description, right?"

"Without any tricks, I would not have lived to this day, just like Lord Du, right? Lord Du has stood on this peak before he was even twenty, so he must have been ruthless and cruel!" Wen Jiu didn't care about Gu Xiao's expression at all.

Gu Xiao looked at her and smiled, "They have been waiting at the door of the inn since last night. They knew that the Second Prince and the Imperial Envoy were staying here, so they came here to ask for money today."

"Then why did the governor say they were from Miaojiang?" Wen Jiu looked at him.

"Because of habit. I've been to Miaojiang before. Even though their appearance and accent are very similar to the locals, their little habits still betray them." Gu Xiao poured her a glass of water and handed it to her.

"You mean, they both touched their wrists when they were panicking just now?" Wen Jiu also saw it, and was curious why they both touched their wrists at the same time after being exposed.

Gu Xiao's eyes lit up and he looked at Wen Jiu, "Did you find it?" He pointed at the distance between the upstairs and the ground, as if praising her for her good eyesight.

"That doesn't make sense! Not everyone in Miaojiang can afford to raise a poisonous snake." Wen Jiu was also skeptical, but then she thought, yes, it's because she's a spy that she has a poisonous snake. She smiled and looked at Gu Xiao, and Gu Xiao knew that she had figured it out. She was really a smart woman.

"Let's not talk about this for now, Governor. I have to go out to appease the people and then go to the military camp, so Governor, please stay in the inn with the Second Prince and Lord Li..." Wen Jiu almost said, "Stay there obediently."

"Let's go. This governor will go with you. I have something to say to Prince Xiao. Chang'an, go tell the second prince to stay in the inn and keep him company. Come up later." Gu Xiao and Wenjiu walked towards Guanghui Money House, where a lot of people had gathered. Many of them were mumbling about the plague, but they were afraid of starving to death and still came to wait for porridge. Wenjiu said to the people who were waiting for the porridge, "Fellow villagers, I am the princess of Prince Xiao's Mansion. The one next to me is the governor of the East Factory. The second prince is here, and the assistant minister of the Ministry of War who is here for disaster relief is also here. No one has given up on Xiaoxiang City, so don't listen to the instigation of those with ulterior motives. Yes, there is a plague in the city, and I will have people quarantined from now on. Later, I will let my sister who has medical skills come to give you free consultation. I also hope that everyone can follow the arrangements. We will get through this difficult time."

"It's easy to say, but this is life-threatening and can kill people. You people are so precious."

"Yes, Princess, we are grateful to you for giving us porridge, but this is a plague, an incurable disease."

"Everyone, don't worry. I'm going to the military camp to talk to Prince Xiao about the situation. My sister will come over to write a prescription for everyone and improve everyone's epidemic prevention measures. When I come back, I will eat and live with you. I promise that I will always be with you."

"How did your sister know medical skills?" Gu Xiao asked her in a low voice.

"I said I was her maid, wasn't I afraid they would think I didn't value her enough?" Beads of blood started to form on Wen Jiu's nose, and his face turned pale.

"Why don't Prince Xiao and the Second Prince show up?"

"Is this really an excuse to not care about us?"

Gu Xiao looked over and saw Chang An had already arrived. He grabbed the man and twisted his hands behind his back. "Tell me, who instructed you to spread rumors and confuse the people here?"

With his other hand, he grabbed a middle-aged man and threw him forward. "Your humble servant greets the Governor and the Crown Princess. I caught a cold yesterday and went to bed early. I didn't know that the Second Prince and the Governor had arrived early. It was my fault that I didn't go to greet them. I was just caught by this little brother at the door of the inn."

"Who are you?" Gu Xiao frowned.

"I am the prefect of Xiaoxiang,"

"It's Lord Lu? Have you been feeling unwell these days? I haven't seen him for a long time. I almost thought the prefect had been replaced." Fu Yichen taunted, without stopping his hands.

"This... I have been busy lately, but I am grateful to know that the Crown Prince's wife is distributing porridge here. I have also been collecting food everywhere. I caught a cold when I rushed back yesterday and went to bed early." Prefect Lu looked at Gu Dugong and Wen Jiu, and bent his body to 90 degrees, extremely humble.

"Oh, then let Prefect Lu take care of the city. Let's go talk to Prince Xiao about something." Gu Xiao just handed this matter over to the prefect.

"Isn't Prince Xiao here?" As soon as Magistrate Lu asked, the people below started to talk.

"I heard from a relative of mine who is in charge of purchasing in the military camp that an elder in the army was sick and was isolated. So is he the prince? Is it the plague?"

"No way! The prince is infected with the plague?"

"It is said that the prince went out to the outskirts of the city a few days ago to check on the situation. He may have been infected with the plague. What should we do?"

"Yes, yes, what can we do?"

In the eyes of the common people, being infected with the plague is equivalent to death. Xiao Jue is like a guardian angel to the people of Xiaoxiang...
