Eighth Ye's Savage Concubine

Chapter 63 The Plague
Yan House.

Taifu Yan paced back and forth anxiously in the front hall, Young Master Yan sat on a chair beside him with his hands hanging.

He watched his old man walking back and forth in front of him, feeling restless in his heart: "Father, stop wandering around, it makes me dizzy."

Hearing his words, Taifu Yan really stopped walking: "Hmph, I don't know good and bad things, the old man is not worried about your affairs!"

Master Yan's words made Young Master Yan shut up immediately.

"Master, something is wrong!"

Suddenly, a man's voice came from outside the front hall.

Taifu Yan and Young Master Yan followed the sound and saw the butler running in from outside in a panic.

Seeing him so flustered, Taifu Yan's face darkened: "What's going on?"

"Knife...Scar Li was...killed by the Eighth Princess!"

"boom!"

The news from the housekeeper was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the Yan family and his son.

Taifu Yan felt buzzed by the news, and his body swayed slightly.

He had heard before that Scar Li was a killer who bought his life for money. He had been in the world for decades, killed countless people, and never missed a single shot.

But this time, he was killed by that shrew!
Standing where he was, Taifu Yan was stunned for a moment, unable to accept this fact for a long time.

He turned his head to look outside the front hall, his eyes were empty and lifeless: "That shrew is so powerful, is there really no other way to punish her?"

"My lord, I have a solution, maybe it will work."

The housekeeper's words made Taifu Yan immediately cheer up: "What way?"

Stepping forward quickly, the butler mysteriously whispered a few words into Taifu Yan's ear.

After hearing his idea, Taifu Yan's eyes became extremely bright: "It really is a good idea!"

……

The next day, in court.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair above, listening to the reports of various officials.

Standing among the ministers, Jiang Ling kept frowning so tightly that he didn't listen to a word the other officials said.

It wasn't until the chief eunuch in charge yelled "There is something to announce, nothing to retreat to the court", he took a step forward: "Your Majesty, there is an important event to announce at the end."

The emperor was about to get up and leave, when he heard his words, he nodded slightly: "Speak."

"Yesterday, the soldiers guarding the city gate discovered a group of patients infected with the plague suddenly appeared outside the city. They were anxious to enter the city for treatment, but they were all stopped by the guards. It will spread into the city, so the general believes that the imperial city should be prepared in time."

"What, is there a plague outside the city?"

"It seems that many people will die this time."

"That's right, that's right, the plague must be kept out of the city, otherwise we will be implicated as well."

Just as Jiang Ling finished speaking, the hall suddenly erupted.

Sitting on the dragon chair, the emperor also frowned deeply: "Well, what Aiqing said is reasonable. I wonder if all Aiqings have any good strategies for this matter?"

"Your Majesty, I feel that more soldiers should be sent to guard the city to isolate all the people suffering from the plague."

"No, doing this will not completely eradicate the plague." An old man denied the former's suggestion: "Your Majesty, this veteran believes that the imperial court should issue an order to close the city. Before the plague is over, the people can only go out but not enter."

Hearing their discussion, Taifu Yan twitched his lips and walked out quickly.
