Don't be too obvious in your sarcasm.
"What did Prince Heng say when he asked to be the imperial envoy? To help my sister and make up for her mistakes? Isn't that right? When my sister was busy running around in Pushan County, Prince Heng was enjoying himself every night in Lindu Mansion. So, this is how Prince Heng helped? It's really eye-opening."
No matter what time it is, the Little Overlord never thinks it is enough and will just finish off the opponent quickly, accurately and ruthlessly.
Prince Heng's expression became even more interesting. Just as he was about to say something, Fan Wuguo raised his hand and said, "If Prince Heng wants to deny it, you'd better stop. You may not know the physical condition of this person, but can you hide it from your sister? Don't say she is wronging you."
“This matter is the fault of this king…” Seeing Fan Wuguo’s half-smile and Xiaocao even looking away, no one knew where he was looking, King Heng could not say the rest of the words. At this moment, he felt hatred and anger in his heart.
He was very restrained in the imperial city, but when he got out, the threatening people were not around, and the people in Lindu Mansion were trying to please him, so Prince Heng inevitably indulged himself for a while. As a result, he couldn't stop himself from indulgence. Originally, this would have been a nothing, but in the end, God didn't help him, and he fell ill at this time, and the symptoms were similar to those of the epidemic. How could he not think about it? As a result, he ran into Wen Renxuan's hands.
Even if he didn't say it clearly, he had to admit that he might have been a little exhausted. He couldn't think of anything from the pulse. He was handing over the evidence himself!
After returning, if Wen Renxuan said a few words in front of his father, he would be in trouble.
This Wen Renxuan is really his nemesis. It seems that nothing good has happened to him since he met her.
At this moment, King Heng unconsciously wanted to kill again. However, he did not get so excited that he used things related to the epidemic to create the illusion of being infected with the epidemic. However, he was an expert in this area. He was afraid that he would be defeated before his people got close. Assassination? Don't be ridiculous. There are hundreds of black-armored guards. With just his few people, are they enough to fill the gaps in their teeth? Moreover, there is Governor Zhao who can mobilize troops. What can he use to kill? If Governor Zhao is his man, he might give it a try, but unfortunately...
In order to kill her, Fan Wuguo must also be dealt with. Even if he tries every possible means to kill these two people, he will definitely not have a good ending after returning. Even if he is his biological father, don't think that he is really merciful and can let him go again and again.
After weighing the pros and cons, King Heng could only stop thinking about it, and secretly swore in his heart that one day, one day...
Fan Wuguo narrowed his eyes and stared at King Heng. Not only had he been in the military camp, he had even gone out to fight with real guns and swords. The murderous intent might sound mysterious, but sometimes, one could really feel it.
Fan Wuguo was thinking in his mind whether he should go back and discuss with Wei Tingyu to see if he could kill King Heng. At worst, he should defeat him completely so that he would no longer have the ability to jump around and plot against others.
After the matter was over, Fan Wuguo unceremoniously "carried" Prince Heng off Xiaocao's carriage. The two were originally of similar height, but in terms of physique, Young Master Fan could really beat ten Prince Hengs alone, easily, not to mention that Prince Heng was now sick and weak, so he could be dealt with with one hand.
This carrying, of course, was not like carrying a chicken, but it was similar to dragging. Naturally, Prince Heng looked extremely embarrassed, especially when he fell from the carriage. He was almost dragged to the ground. He was a prince, but he was treated like this by Fan Wuguo. In front of so many people, he lost all his face. He was furious for a while, but he couldn't break free of Fan Wuguo's hand at all, "Fan Wuguo, let go of me!"
Then, Fan Wuguo let go as he wished. Without the entanglement, King Heng, who was struggling backwards, fell directly to the ground.
"Wow, this posture is good. Come on, lift this foot a little more and bend it a little," Fan Wuguo moved his foot. "Alas, you are a human after all. There is still some gap between you and the turtle on its back. Tsk, it's so boring." His eyes were full of disgust.
Prince Heng's men hurriedly helped the man up. They were naturally ashamed to see their master embarrassed. However, when their master was extremely powerful in the past, they followed suit and showed off their power. Even some people of noble status had to give them some face. At that time, they did not dare to provoke Fan Wuguo. What's more, their master was out of power now, so they could not even show the slightest emotion.
Who knows if this little bully will suddenly dislike them, and then their master may not be able to protect them. No, it should be said that he cannot protect them even if he wants to.
Prince Heng shook off the person who was supporting him and stared at Fan Wuguo with a dark face, "Fan Wuguo, do you really think that you can do whatever you want just because of your father's favor? Do you really think that I dare not do anything to you?"
Fan Wuguo smiled, with a bit of rogue and scoundrel look, "Yes, that's what I really think. If not, you can try to do what I can to you. If you really have the courage to fight me directly, I will respect you as a man. Come on..."
Fan Wuguo's wanton provocation and actual actions told King Heng that he really didn't take him seriously.
Sometimes, when one gets angry, one can become extremely courageous. However, even if King Heng has the courage to take action, he knows clearly that he will only be beaten. If he asks himself to be beaten, Fan Wuguo will only be more rude.
King Heng was so angry that his chest heaved and he was breathing heavily. The hatred and murderous intent towards Fan Wuguo in his eyes were no longer concealed at all.
Fan Wuguo sneered, "Your Highness, are you trying to kill people with your eyes? What a pity! Even if your eyes pop out, I won't lose a single piece of meat." His expression changed in an instant, his face cold and impatient, "If you want to do it, do it quickly, or get on the carriage and set off. If you get to Lindu Mansion earlier, maybe you can save a few lives."
Prince Heng glared at Fan Wuguo fiercely, turned around, and strode towards his carriage.
Fan Wuguo raised the corner of his mouth, and his disdainful expression became more and more obvious. Some insects may not pose any big threat, but they may be poisonous. In this case, if you get bitten by them, it may be very painful, and it is also very annoying to look at. Therefore, you should just kick them down and stomp them hard without leaving any room for them to turn over.
Fan Wuguo pulled over the horse led by a black-armored guard, climbed on it, and said, "Let's go."
The team began to move forward at a fairly fast pace again, but King Heng and his men fell behind.
What was King Heng's mood? No one paid any attention to him, not just the main people, but everyone in Xiaocao's team. In fact, when King Heng appeared, he was in a hurry to find Xiaocao, and the others didn't even have a chance to greet him. In that case, they naturally just acted as a background, secretly watching the fun with their ears pricked up.
However, the little bully is indeed the little bully, and he is so powerful wherever he goes. To be honest, as long as the person he is talking to is not himself or someone related to him, it is really satisfying to watch. And if it is someone he dislikes, it would probably be even more satisfying. Obviously, King Heng is now almost in the latter category.
Young Master Fan had not restrained his voice in the carriage before, and it was quiet outside. Except for some people at the back, almost everyone else heard it. Everyone heard and understood what Prince Heng did.
It would be fine if it were just these small figures in Pushan County, but it is obvious that whether it is Princess Anguo, Young Master Fan, or Governor Zhao, their status, position, and power combined are not much worse than Prince Heng. Without comparison, there is really no harm. Prince Heng is huddled in a safe place, surrounded by beauties, reveling in revelry every night, living a life of drunkenness and dreams, while the others are risking their lives to rescue the people. They cannot eat properly or sleep well, especially Princess Anguo, who has hardly slept in the past few days, and her eyes have long been bloodshot. Therefore, when they knew what Prince Heng was doing in Lindu Mansion, they all thought that he would really be infected with the disease.
When you are too busy, you can actually block out what is happening outside. Xiaocao is in almost this state now, and the bumpy carriage naturally has no effect on her.
When we arrived at Lindu City, it had indeed been blocked off, and there were no people gathering outside the city. Although we didn't know what the situation was inside the city, at least it looked quite peaceful.
Upon hearing the news, the officials of Lindu Prefecture waited respectfully for Princess Anguo at the city gate.
When Xiaocao first arrived at Lindu Mansion, their conditions were better than they are now. At this moment, they were really trembling with fear. Their clothes were almost soaked, although it was also because of the heat.
As they got closer, they shouted, "Welcome Princess Anguo." They all bowed down together. If you didn't know, you would think they were welcoming the emperor.
This shows how empty these people are in their hearts.
However, this time they were "smarter" as everyone wore masks and people were at least two arms' length apart from each other.
Xiao Cao came out of the carriage, with no obvious emotion on his face, but it was precisely because of this that he was completely unsure, which made people even more uneasy. "What is the current situation in the city?"
Compared to the last time when almost no one knew anything, this time it was quite clear, for example, how many people had died, how many people had been infected, how they were resettled, and the situation of the people in the city, etc.
The number of deaths is more than double what Xiaocao had heard before, and the number of people infected has exceeded a thousand. These are only those who are close to the officials. Because there are hundreds of thousands of people in Lindu Prefecture, there is no time to check whether there are people infected among the people. Who knows if there is anyone infected in any family walking around in public.
Every time Xiaocao heard a new situation, she couldn't help but frowning. The officials carefully looked at her expression, but because her mouth and nose were covered, they could only see her eyes. However, they couldn't tell much from them.
"Your Highness, I am guilty, I..."
"Get out!" Things have come to this point, and now is not the time to hold people accountable. However, this troublemaker, the prefect, ran out without knowing him, instantly igniting Xiaocao's suppressed anger. At this moment, he really wanted to kill the man directly.
“Your Highness…” Magistrate Wu knelt on the ground, sweating profusely.
Xiaocao's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. "Since you are so anxious, I will help you. Governor Zhao, have him imprisoned and dismissed from his post. Also, thoroughly investigate all the people in the Wu family, where they are now, who they have come into contact with during this period. In addition, check all the officials who went to Pushan County before to see if they are the same as Magistrate Wu. If so, investigate them in the same way regardless of the consequences."
"Yes, sir." Governor Zhao responded and waved his hand to have his men come forward. They directly arrested Magistrate Wu and did not even give him a chance to beg for mercy. They just dragged him away.
All other officials were silent.
"Are you still blocking the road? Do you want to go to jail with him? Get out of here." She didn't want to seize the time to save people, but was nagging here. She was told that after this incident, none of these officials should be kept alive.
Xiaocao's attitude was so obvious that someone finally understood what she meant and hurriedly led the way.
The situation is more serious than expected, so both manpower and supplies are far from enough, which is what Xiaocao is really worried about. "It's true that the demand for various things is greater now, and they were basically shipped to Pushan County before..."
