Duobao's eyes were gloomy and he gestured.
The men in black behind him all took out their crossbows, and with a few whooshes, the garrison in front of Yunze fell to the ground.
Duobao pulled out the long sword from his waist and pointed it at Yunze: "Master Yun, blame me if you want. You are the brother of the Queen Mother."
The sword gradually approached, and Yunze pulled out the bamboo flute hanging from his waist to block Duobao's attack.
Duobao knew that Yunze had skills, but he was still a little inferior to him. He bullied him and attacked fiercely.
He was extremely confident that he could kill Yunze, so he didn't let the twenty men in black behind him take action at all. He was just worried that Yunze would escape and let the twenty men block the way down the mountain.
Yunze fell backward and was forced to stand in front of an ancient tree.
The bamboo flute in his hand was against the long sword, and he spoke slowly: "Eunuch Duobao, how about we make a deal. If you are loyal to the Queen Mother, then my Yun family..."
"Stop talking nonsense." Duobao's eyes were gloomy, "Take the move!"
"I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it."
Yunze did not accept the attack, but dodged his figure.
At this moment, dozens of secret guards wearing dark clothes emerged from the darkness, each of them carrying murderous intent.
The Yun family had raised a group of dead soldiers for a long time, a total of one thousand people. When Yun Silin left the capital, all of these one thousand people were handed over to Yun Chu and Yun Ze.
This time he came to suppress the bandits. He knew there was a trap, but he didn't dare to rely on it, so he brought a full two hundred dead soldiers with him.
Two hundred dead soldiers, facing off against the opponent's mere twenty assassins, was like playing.
Almost in the blink of an eye, twenty people on the other side were dead.
"Lord Yun is indeed a good strategist!" Duobao tightly squeezed the sword in his hand, "It is indeed our prince who underestimated you!"
It was already dark, and a group of people were all dressed in black, making them inconspicuous in the dense forest.
Duobao was surrounded in the middle, and there were people on the west side. He had no way to escape.
Yunze wiped the bamboo flute, hung it on his waist again, and said in a warm voice: "Eunuch Duobao, why don't you listen to my conditions again?"
Duobao raised his sword and inserted it into his abdomen before Yunze could react.
He spit out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Yunze stepped forward: "He is loyal, but he is loyal to the wrong person."
He bent down and closed his eyes for Duobao, who was still staring at death.
The secret guard behind him thought that he wanted to bury Duobao properly, because their young master had always been a kind-hearted person and looked gentle to everyone.
"Wrap it in straw mats." Yunze stood up and "threw it to the door of the Prince Regent's Palace."
He looked at the garrison soldiers who died tragically in the capital: "Let's just bury them alive."
It's night and the moon is full.
Chu Rui did not fall asleep. It became increasingly difficult for him to fall asleep. He often kept his eyes open until dawn, thinking about various things.
At this time, a palace soldier came to report: "Your Majesty, someone threw a body at the gate of the palace."
Chu Rui was stunned for a moment, then stood up suddenly.
He quickly walked towards the door of the house.
He walked too fast, staggered and almost fell to the ground.
When he arrived at the door of the house, he saw the body swept by the grass through the light of the lantern. He squatted down, opened the straw mat with his own hands, and saw a familiar face.
"Duobao..."
Chu Rui's voice was trembling.
Duobao was not the person who had been with him since childhood. He secretly escaped from the palace once and met a poor person outside.
He is also a pitiful person, so he especially hates to see others pity him. He saved Duo Bao from a group of thugs.
Duobao has no parents, no brothers and sisters, and no relatives in the world. Even though he has great martial arts skills, he is unwilling to resist the thugs and is determined to die.
Duobao was so similar to him that he kept Duobao by his side to be an eunuch. In fact, he didn't really become an eunuch.
He thought that when he became Dabao one day, he would give Duobao a court official, marry Duobao a wife, and let Duobao have children of his own. Having blood relatives would make people want to live.
Everything has just begun, how come Duobao...
"it's all my fault……"
Chu Rui's voice was extremely hoarse.
It was he who underestimated Yunze and thought that he only needed to send twenty people to kill Yunze.
How could he be so careless.
It was his carelessness that killed Duobao.
"Yun, Ze!" He clenched his fists, "I will definitely make you pay with your life!"
The night passed quietly.
Going to court the next morning was still the same old story.
News came from Yunze that the bandits had been eliminated, the doctor and medicinal materials had been found in a cave, and had been sent to Ningzhou.
Yun Chu breathed a sigh of relief.
However.
The medicinal materials and doctors were arranged, but the plague did not improve at all. Instead, the main city of Ningzhou was also affected.
The people sent by the imperial court tried their best to gather and manage the sick people, but there were too many people and they couldn't manage them at all. The patients fled, causing thousands of people to contract the plague, and many people died miserably every day. It is said that Ningzhou City has always been filled with the stench of burning corpses during this period of time.
Because those dead people died of diseases. If the corpses are not burned, the plague will flow into the river and more people will be infected...
The situation is getting more and more serious, and the people in the court dare not take it lightly.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, according to this trend, it will only take half a month for the plague to spread to the capital."
"Even the doctors are helpless. The plague this time is too severe. If we can't save it, then give up. Otherwise, we don't know how many people will die."
"Master Qiu, you might as well make it clear what you mean by giving up."
"If it weren't for those sick people wandering around, the plague wouldn't be getting worse and worse. It's better to gather the sick people together and burn them..."
"Hiss! Those people are just sick, not criminals with heinous crimes. This is inappropriate, inappropriate!"
"If we don't do this, these people will come to the capital with the disease, and then we, the courtiers, will also get sick, and the consequences will be serious."
"Although it is a last resort, it can only be like this in the current situation. The court is not careless about human life. On the contrary, it has to do this in order to protect more people."
"This, hey..."
Those who objected could not come up with any new opinions, and everyone kept talking in low voices.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, please make a decision as soon as possible. This matter cannot be delayed!"
People started to put pressure on him.
Although Chu Hongyu was smart, it was the first time he encountered such a thing and he couldn't think of any countermeasures.
But he still had his own ability to distinguish, and said: "No matter what, you can't attack the common people. I don't agree."
"Your Majesty, when a gecko is in danger, it knows how to cut off its tail to protect itself. People should do the same." Lord Qiu advised, "If a person is poisoned, he can save his life by cutting out the poisoned meat in time. , this is the last resort, and it’s also a foolproof strategy.”
"Since I know it's a bad idea, there's no need to say it anymore." Yun Chu, who was behind the bead curtain, said slowly, "The Ai family has a way."
