Chapter 989: The wealth of the king, the worry of loyalty to the king
Chapter 989
When An Jing and Xiao Changyi hadn't reached the bottom of the Nan Mirage City Tower, they heard Wang Youbao's voice—
"General Lu, I really want to go in and have a look, so let me in."
Wang Youbao was the salt messenger in the Nanmi area, but he was not an official in Nanmi City, so he avoided the plague.
"Master Wang, it's not that I won't let you in, but that I won't let you out if I let you in. Are you really sure you want to come in?" After a pause, the general defender of the South Mirage City said again: "His Royal Highness said that. , seal the city, there is entry but no exit, otherwise, there will be no amnesty to kill."
Wang Youbao also knew that His Royal Highness did this to prevent the spread of the plague to other places, and said in a righteous manner: "The money of the king, the worry of being loyal to the king, the crown prince is suffering from illness, how can this official take care of himself, General Lu, you open the door Come on, this officer is going in."
General Lu was very surprised that other adults did not dare to come to this Nan Mirage City, but this Wang Youbao wanted to come in awe-inspiringly, and admired Wang Youbao's integrity, but he still did not dare to let Wang Youbao come in, so he said: "That's it. , I will have someone ask His Royal Highness for instructions, if His Royal Highness agrees with Sir Wang, I will open the city gate."
Wang Youbao bowed his hands to General Lu, who was standing on the tower: "Then there is General Laulu."
Hearing the sound of hooves getting closer, Wang Youbao looked back subconsciously, and saw Jing Jing and Xiao Changyi coming on horseback.
"Master! Master!" Wang Youbao was very surprised.
Seeing Wang Youbao, Jing Jing was also quite pleasantly surprised. She tightened the reins and stopped Tayue. She did not dismount, but said sternly, "Youbao, we have all heard what you just said to the general defending the city. Your master doesn't agree with you to go in, so you should go back quickly."
Last month, she received a letter from Wang Youbao, saying that Li Wuyu was pregnant with a child.
It's a lot of misfortune to go in, she really opposes Wang Youbao going in.
"It won't help you much if you go in, it's better not to go in." After a pause, he said quietly, "If you really want to help, you may come around here from time to time, maybe we have something for you to do. If we go in, we can't get out. You are outside. If we have anything to do, we can call you on the tower and let you do it. But you have to remember to stay away from the South Mirage tower to prevent you from contracting the plague. "
Wang Youbao felt that what Jingjing said was reasonable, so he responded: "Yes!"
It was also at this time that Qin Yi, who was at the end, shouted loudly to the generals on the Nan Mirage City Tower: "Prince Yi and Princess Yi were ordered to come to cure the plague, and General Lu didn't open the city gate quickly!"
General Lu knew Xiao Changyi, and after identifying it carefully, he was sure that Xiao Changyi was here, and he said with great joy: "Open the city gate, Prince Yi has brought someone to cure the plague!"
Gong Juechen took out the realgar powder and smeared it on his face, and said to Jing Jing, "Hurry up and apply it."
Quiet and they took out the realgar powder and wiped it on their faces.
Wang Youbao was confused and didn't know what they were doing.
still calmly explained to him: "This is realgar powder, which can prevent epidemics, you hurry back, don't stay here, it is not safe here, if you come to wander around here, remember to put some realgar powder on your face as well."
"Yes!" Wang Youbao first bowed his hands to An Jing and the others, before turning around and taking people away.
Gong Juechen shouted from behind: "Baby, and orpiment, cinnabar..."
