After he completely regained his consciousness, Qi Chengjun no longer dwelled on these things, but sent someone to quickly send a message to the capital, telling the emperor that he had won this battle without any blood.

Next, it is time for His Royal Highness King Chu to pay the price.

It has been several months since Qi Chengjun entered the epidemic area. Apart from having people continuously deliver medicinal materials there, Qi Chengjun himself has never shown his face at all.

To the King of Chu, he was a dead person.

After all, Jiangnan is his own territory. During the floods and epidemics, the King of Chu did not interfere too much. But now that the weather is good, the King of Chu naturally wants Jiangnan to recover quickly.

He directly arranged for two people to serve as temporary magistrates in Yangzhou and Huizhou, completely taking over their official duties, and at the same time lowering taxes in these three places again to win over the people.

Everything in Jiangnan was restored in an orderly manner, but soon, news came from the capital that His Royal Highness had discovered new grain, and the angry King of Chu broke another tea set.

"Gu Yuzhi, Gu Yuzhi! It's all Gu Yuzhi!"

The Queen of Chu chewed her tooth sockets to bits and smashed the table. He was about to use these methods to win people's hearts to claim credit, but who knew that Gu Yuzhi actually made a big deal!
Now, everyone in the Sang Dynasty is paying attention to these two new species. Who has time to control whether there are any tax cuts in the Jiangnan region?

"I couldn't tell when I was in the palace before, but this Xiaoliu is actually a dog that can't bark."

Ling Changshi and others listened silently, saying nothing to anyone. When the King of Chu had scolded him enough and had a tea break, Ling Changshi spoke: "Your Highness, I have received news that many merchants have set off to Momo. I went north just to buy the seeds of these two new grains from His Highness King Wen."

All the seeds that King Wen presented to the court were controlled by Su Shilang. The merchants had no choice but to focus on His Highness King Wen and try every means to get the seeds this year.

King Chu glanced at Ling Changshi and understood the meaning of his words: "I have asked Li Yanping to return to Mobei."

When Li Yanping was mentioned, King Chu felt depressed again.

If he doesn't contact him, he doesn't contact him. He just does everything as he wants. He actually came to Jiangnan specifically. Now it's better. After being trapped in Jiangnan for several months, he can say that the situation in Mobei is now very good. Became blind.

Otherwise, how could he only know about such an important thing as Xiaoliu planting a new species now.

Why does he have the feeling that Xiaoliu specializes in controlling himself? He has only been in Mobei for a year, and Mobei is no longer completely under his control.

Ling Changshi saw that King Chu's face was turning green and white. He obviously didn't think of anything good, so he immediately changed the subject: "Your Highness, Mobei is not very important for the time being. The most important thing is Jiangnan. The prefects of Yangzhou and Huizhou , we haven’t reported to the emperor yet.”

The appointment of the magistrates of the two states is not something that the vassal king can decide. The King of Chu can say that he will let them temporarily take over. After all, Jiangnan is in an extraordinary period now, but it would be disrespectful not to tell the emperor until the emperor finds out.

The emperor can chop off King Chu's head.

Talking about the bad things in Mobei, and even more bad mood when talking about Jiangnan, King Chu became a little more irritable: "I know, I will send someone to send a letter to the capital tomorrow. You still have to contact the people in the capital." It’s most appropriate to send one of your own.”

Although Yangzhou and Huizhou are not his fiefdoms, the first two prefects were also his people, and he has benefited from these two places in recent years.

If someone else from the imperial court were to come, not only would he lose control of these two places, but his true strength would most likely be exposed.

How could the King of Chu allow such a situation to happen.Ling Changshi then said: "I have already contacted people in Beijing, and I will find a way to transfer Fan Qiu here this time."

Fan Qiu was also a member of the King of Chu, but he was not very showy. After taking the imperial examination in high school, he went to Lingnan to become a magistrate, and he stayed there for so many years.

He never took the initiative to contact the King of Chu, so no one knew that Fan Qiu was a member of the King of Chu. However, the one hundred thousand navy in the south of the Yangtze River was trained by Fan Qiu.

He was also in exile in Lingnan. This time there was a flood in the south of the Yangtze River, it was just right to transfer Fan Qiu here.

King Chu thought of the navy that Fan Qiu had built for him, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, Fan Qiu is in Yangzhou. Yangzhou is relatively close to the navy. As for Huizhou..."

He was just thinking about who would be more suitable to transfer here when he heard the housekeeper say in a panic: "Your Highness, Your Highness is not well! He's out, he's out..."

The King of Chu endured it again and again, and then he controlled himself from throwing the tea cup over: "Speak clearly, what happened?"

The housekeeper said with a trembling voice: "Qi Chengjun, Qi Chengjun has come out! Not only has he come out, but also more than 1000 people in the epidemic area have come out!"

Those who had long been judged dead and might as well be burned came out of the epidemic area intact.

Protected by guards, Qi Chengjun led more than 1000 people to stand outside Jiangzhou City. Still holding Shang Fang's sword in his hand, he looked at the Jiangzhou city wall and said: "Your Majesty, Qi Chengjun, a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, led many surviving people to see Chu. Your Highness."

Before he entered Jiangzhou, he raised his voice outside the city and shouted. After he shouted, the people behind him knelt down and shouted loudly: "The common people ask to see His Highness the King of Chu."

Chen Shoubei looked confused, what do you want to see?
You untouchables, live as long as you live, do whatever you have to do, what are you shouting about here?
Chen Shoubei just wanted to order the killing of all these idiots below!
But he couldn't, not only couldn't, he quickly walked down the tower and knelt in front of Qi Chengjun.

There is no way, who let Qi Chengjun hold Shang Fang's sword in his hand!
Qi Chengjun's eyes did not fall on Chen Shoubei, and he just waited quietly. He wanted to see when His Royal Highness King Chu would come out, and how he would face the more than 1000 people who had just survived!

At this moment, King Chu was holding the corner of the table tightly. Listening to the butler describing the situation outside the city gate, he couldn't hold back and pulled off a piece of the corner of the table.

He threw it aside in disgust, and the servant quickly brought him a basin of water to clean his hands. After his hands were completely clean, King Chu looked at the aide who had previously proposed to throw Qi Chengjun into the epidemic area: "It's not that Qi Chengjun entered the epidemic area. Can you borrow a knife to kill someone?"

The staff never thought that Qi Chengjun would survive.

After all, in their view, those in epidemic areas are waiting to die regardless of whether they are infected or not.

The staff member knelt down with a bang: "Your Highness..."

It's too late to say anything now!

Qi Chengjun survived and brought more than 1000 people out. He led the people to surround Jiangzhou City. The people of Jiangzhou will immediately know what he did regarding the epidemic!
Compared with Qi Chengjun who went deep into the epidemic area, what he did was simply killing innocent lives.

After this incident, Qi Chengjun's prestige in Jiangzhou will instantly rise.

He had a very bad premonition...
