A Clash of Gods Chapter 221: Doubt
Qining shot cleanly and sharply, punching him in the abdomen of the guard. The guard next to him was shocked, but the reaction was also very fast.
Zhao Wu injury was still two steps away from Qi Ning. When he saw that the guard raised his hand, he already knew that the man was going to wave a knife, but he had rushed forward like an arrow out of the string, and the sword was out of the sheath. When the guard was cut down, Zhao Wuxing picked up the knife to meet him, and the two knives were connected. The sound of "choking" made Mars splashing.
The other two guards in Houyi of Zhongyi saw the situation and drew their swords, and the guards of Jinyihou who were behind Zhao Wu injured quickly drew their swords forward.
"Who dares to be extravagant?" Qi Ning punched the guard down on the ground, Huo Ran raised his head and sneered, "The following commits, even if you are a member of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion, this Hou will still kill him. ."
He was indifferent, and all the guards were stunned.
At this moment, the sound of "quack" was heard, and the door of the Hou Mansion in Zhongyi opened a slit, and a head came out, and said in a deep voice: "What's the noise?"
Zhao Wusheng shouted: "Jinyi Hou seeks to see Zhongyi's old Hou Ye, there is something to discuss!"
The guards heard that, first, they were startled, and then all changed their colors.
They thought that Qi Ning was just an ordinary marquis. He came at midnight, just to please Zhongyi Hou, but he didn't think the person was Jinyihou.
The relationship between Jinyi Hou and Zhongyi Hou was relatively harmonious. One of the four marquises, although Zhongyi Hou ranked first, but Zhongyi Hou was obviously not as good as Jinyi Hou in his prestige.
After stunned, the four guards knew that things were not good, but they all knelt on one knee and said in unison: "Have seen Jinyihou!"
The two generations of Jinyihou are all famous Chu generals. They have deep roots in the military and are admired by the emperors. These guards are actually from the army. Although they did not fight under Jinyihou, In his heart, he was still in awe of Jin Yihou.
It's just that they never imagined that the young man who didn't look very impressive in front of him turned out to be Jin Yihou.
The door opened immediately, and a middle-aged man walked out of it, arching his hand: "Hou Ye, please come in, the villain will pass on the old Hou Ye!" Qining was invited to enter.
Qining naturally has no time to worry about a few escorts. He walked into the house and was taken to the lobby. The night was quiet and the house was very quiet.
Someone came up with tea, and Qi Ning waited for a moment before he heard the sound of footsteps and turned his head to look over. I saw that an elderly man in a black robe had walked in from outside the door. It's very big. After sixty years, the spirit is still quite healthy. His nose is slightly stiff. Whether it is hair or beard, they are black and white, and there is more white and less black.
Qining stood up immediately, and the elder looked at Qining with a smile, and raised his hand: "Sit down and talk." He walked over and sat down on the main seat.
Qining knew that this person must be the current first minister, Zhongyi Hou Sima Lan.
He did not expect that it would be in such a situation when he first saw Sima Lan.
"The juniors have seen Zhongyi Old Hou Ye!" Qi Ning inherited Jinyihou. Although he was ranked as one of the four marquises of the empire together with Zhongyi Hou, he was equal on the knighthood, but he also knew whether it was qualification or power in his hand. It is a world away from this old man in a flowered jacket.
Sima Lan is an old minister of the Three Dynasties, and is the first generation of loyal loyalists. Among the four marquises, in addition to him and the old man of the gold sword, Wu Xiang Hou Suzhen is already the second generation marquis, while Qi Ning is already Third Generation.
The marquis is still that marquis, but the man is no longer that man.
Qing Ning knows that even if Qi Jing is alive, he should pay tribute to Sima Lan, not to mention his third-generation Jinyi Hou.
Moreover, Sima Lan was the minister of the solitary torment, and made remarkable achievements in the process of ascending the new emperor. If it was not his strategy, Qi Ning doubted that the little emperor could succeed the throne.
In front of such a powerful veteran, Qi Ning still showed his respect as much as possible.
Sima Lan seemed quite easy-going, and smiled and said: "No need to be restrained, you come to see me in the middle of the night, of course, it will not be for no reason, there is nothing urgent to think about, but it is no problem."
He speaks neatly, not much greetings, and in his tone, he clearly sees Qi Ning as a junior.
Qining had actually organized the language on the way to come, and now he said what was happening urgently. When Tang Nuo wanted to use the corpse to find out the method of detoxification, Qining naturally did not reveal it.
After listening to it, Sima Lan didn’t panic as Qi Ning had expected, but frowned slightly, and asked, “You mean, someone poisoned the disciples in the capital, and then took the disciples as examples. Tools to spread the epidemic to Beijing and Beijing?"
Qining nodded and said: "That's exactly what it is."
Sima Lan caressed the black and white beard and asked: "Are you sure that it is really an epidemic, and it will spread quickly? Is it just a coincidence that some people happen to have this disease?"
Qing Ning's expression is serious: "Old Lord Hou, I am very sure and sure that if there is no accident, there are hundreds of infected people who are getting worse, but it has not yet happened. According to the time, after dawn, , That is, today, a group of patients infected earlier will begin to attack."
"You said that after the poison, the patient is unconscious and will attack anyone?" Sima Lan stared at Qi Ning and doubted: "And after being injured by the attack, there is a high possibility of infection?"
Qing Ning thought that what I had said was very clear. Time is getting more and more urgent. You old man, don’t talk to your mother-in-law, and act quickly, but you can’t say anything naturally, you can only try to suppress the urgency in your heart. Tao: "Old Lord Hou, I can guarantee that what I said is true. I came here to see Old Hou Ye tonight, hoping that the old Hou Ye can seize the last time and be prepared to deal with possible riots."
Sima Lan thought deeply, she pondered a little, and then said: "Don't worry, this matter is of great importance, and it can't be solved without urgency." Instructed Qi Ning to drink tea first, and then said: "What do you mean, Is it to let the old man ban the foot all over the city overnight, and then mobilize the soldiers to prepare for the prevention?"
"Yes." Qi Ning said: "In addition, we need to find a place for resettlement, as sparsely populated as much as possible. If there is a large-scale riot of infected people, they must be forced to force them in a state of unconsciousness. Hold them in custody and temporarily imprison them before finding a way to detoxify them, so as not to involve more people."
At this time, someone moved to the stove and placed it next to Sima Lan. It was really cold in the lobby on a cold winter night. Sima Lan reached out and roasted on the heater. Then he asked: "The old man doesn't believe you, but... according to you, this epidemic has time to deteriorate, and it's not that the poisoning has occurred immediately. Then if there is a large-scale epidemic in Beijing in recent days, why is it prince? The government knew nothing about this matter? The old man did not receive the report from the Shenhou government."
Qining frowned, thinking that you are suspecting me of false reporting?
He sneered under his heart, thinking that if the imperial city was not closed, I would go directly to the little emperor and would not come to you. If I could mobilize the soldiers and horses, he would not come to talk to you for a long time.
However, he knew very well that he must only take help from the old guy if he needs to take countermeasures.
Qining is anxious tonight, not worried about a certain person. He does not want to see many innocent people die under this epidemic. As long as there are fewer people to die, Qining is willing to do everything he can.
"Old Master Hou, this epidemic has come quietly and has not appeared before." Qi Ning couldn't sit still. "Shenhou's recent energy may have been focused on other things. Before the epidemic has not completely erupted, few people will know its terrible." He finally stood up and arched his hand: "Old Grandpa, time is not waiting for others, and I urge Old Grandpa to respond immediately, otherwise... ...!"
Sima Lan stared at Qi Ning's eyes and said, "The old man knows that you are very anxious, but you know, it is not a matter of words to mobilize soldiers and horses. The first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and the whole city has been around for a while Martial law and the prohibition of foot have already made many people feel awful, and you know that every time this time, people in the city will be panicked."
"I know!"
"After the emperor ascended the throne, the martial law was lifted, and the people in Jingli eased down." Sima Lan said slowly: "You know what is most important at this time? Naturally, it is Taiping, which makes the people in Jingli feel peaceful. My Dachu nation will stabilize. The capital is the heart of my Dachu, and the whole body will be moved in one stroke. Any trace of the wind and wind in Jianye Beijing will not only affect the situation of my Dachu nation, but also the situation in the whole world. Do you understand the truth?"
Qing Ning listened to his tone and old-fashioned tone, a pair of elders talked to the juniors, if he changed it to normal, he would not really care much, but in such a hurry, this old guy was still Slowly arranging something useless with himself, annoyed under his heart, couldn't help saying: "Old Hou Ye means that in order to ensure the stability of the capital, the soldiers and horses can't be adjusted. Wait until things happen and then deal with it?"
Sima Lan frowned slightly, and it seemed that Xing Ning's tone was a little unpleasant, but he still said: "Young people are young and vigorous and want to do something~IndoMTL.com~ That's understandable too, but think twice about everything Yes, you yourself said that such epidemic did not happen before, why did it suddenly appear at this time? Shenhou House knew nothing about it. Since the founding of the country, the old man has never seen an infectious disease in Beijing. Taking the liberty to adjust troops, martial law in the whole city, the people who have just calmed down in the city will inevitably panic and panic again. The old man is only worried that once the situation is tense, some people will be suspicious."
Qing Ning stunned, and instantly understood that, after all, Sima Lan still considered from the political situation, fearing that the prohibition again would lead to panic in the capital and give the hostile forces an opportunity.
He sneered in his heart, thinking that you are disregarding your head, but you are worried that the military martial law will make the people in the city panic, but you don’t want to think that if the outbreak of the epidemic, the chaos in the capital will be more than that caused by the military martial law. The panic is ten times stronger.
Qining thought that the old guy seemed to think that he had just inherited the title of the knight, and he was eager to act, so he would be so active. It seems that he did not believe in the epidemic.
