Chapter 259: A Thought Becomes a Demon

The matter of the small village attracted Li Er's attention, and as long as Li Er paid attention, the matter was settled, and all those who participated in the killing of villagers with smallpox or suspected of having smallpox were all sentenced to death by Li Er. After all, smallpox is not a reason to deprive others of their lives.

Liu Cunzheng's purpose was to separate the sick villagers from the healthy villagers, and he could have asked people to take strict care of these sick villagers, but Liu Cunzheng used the wrong method, and it became an indiscriminate killing of innocents. As for the special reason for this, Li Er didn't want to know so much, and if he killed someone, he had to pay for his life.

This matter was also taken by Li Er to talk about it in the morning.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have a question for you this morning." Li Er sat on the dragon chair and looked at the civil and military officials below, although the entire Chang'an City was led by Li Er, and everyone was stabbed, but everyone's hearts were still not very at ease with this cowpox, so the smallpox turmoil had not yet passed.

"I ask you, what would you do if you were the head of the village and a patient with smallpox was found in the village?" Li Er asked.

When the officials heard Li Er's question, they all began to whisper below, hoping to discuss a correct answer.

Li Er looked at the people below, and then named Wei Zheng's name, in fact, Li Er still had selfish intentions in doing this, compared to Wei Zheng, an old man, who blocked himself for three days and two times, and now it is his turn to add blockage to Wei Zheng.

"Wei Qing, if it were you, what would you do?" Li Er asked.

"Naturally, the minister wants to separate the villagers who are already suffering from smallpox and the healthy ones." Wei Zheng heard Li Er call his name, so he stood up and said.

"But these villagers suffering from smallpox are not honest and are running into the village, what should you do?" Li Erdao.

"The minister sent people to take turns guarding the sick villagers day and night to ensure that the people in the village were protected from smallpox." Wei Zheng continued.

"Alright, I'm done." After Li Er finished speaking, he waved his hand, and Wei Zheng stood back in his position.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in the village where smallpox broke out, the village was actually driving all the sick villagers and suspected sick villagers into the mountains, and instigating the healthy villagers in the village to kill them. Li Er said with a distressed look.

Hearing Li Er say this, the officials immediately began to discuss.

"The minister dared to ask Your Majesty, how is the village and the villagers doing now." Wei Zheng stood up again and said.

"I have ordered that he be executed immediately." Li Erdao.

"Your Majesty! Why is the emperor so reckless, there must be something unspeakable about that village. Wei Zheng said.

"Oh? Why did Lord Wei say that? An official from the Imperial Historical Observatory stood up and sang a duet with Wei Zheng.

"The emperor asked us about it just now, and that village must have encountered the same thing, but that village did not guard those villagers according to common sense, but instead killed the killer, there must be a reason for this." Wei Zhengdao.

"That's right, Master Wei is right."

"Master Wei is right."

As soon as Wei Zheng's words came out, they attracted the unanimous approval of the officials of the Imperial Historical Observatory.

"So why doesn't the emperor figure out the reason and then make a verdict." Wei Zheng asked Li Er rhetorically.

Originally, Zhang Nan still wanted to be the same as before, and confused the early dynasty in a state of listening to heavenly books, but when he heard Wei Zheng say this, Zhang Nan remembered Wanhui who didn't say a word every day now, and Sun Simiao, who was now about to be characterized as mentally ill by himself, Zhang Nan's anger didn't come to one place, and some things could not be changed by figuring out the reasons.

"Lord Wei, there is a sentence I want to ask my lord, I don't know if I should say it or not." Zhang Nan arched his hand and said.

"Master Zhang, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Wei Zheng also arched his hand, although Zhang Nan did things most of the time, and there was no etiquette, but Wei Zheng did not deny Zhang Nan's talent, and Wei Zheng was still very polite to talented people.

"I dare to ask Lord Wei, if this is clear, how does Lord Wei think it should be judged?" Zhang Nan asked.

"This, if this village really has a legitimate reason, I think it should be appropriately lenient." Wei Zheng thought for a while and said.

"Oh? Then ask Lord Wei next, what is a valid reason? What justification can be used as an excuse to deprive someone of their life? Lord Wei? Zhang Nan continued to ask.

"This ......," Wei Zheng was speechless for a moment.

"Do you know how many villagers are being killed in that village, there are twenty people, and how many people are sure to have smallpox? There were only ten people, that is, ten people who probably didn't have smallpox at all, but the village still killed them. The daughter of one of the couples, who is now in the military academy, washed her face with tears every day a few days ago, and her eyes were swollen and she couldn't break free, and now the little girl is silent and has long lost her former liveliness. Zhang Nan said.

"This ......" Wei Zheng still couldn't think of anything to refute in the face of Zhang Nan's pressing step by step.

"And our Sun Simiao, Sun Zhenren, originally Sun Zhenren went to that village when smallpox broke out to treat that group of patients, and then after the method of resisting smallpox came out, Sun Zhenren personally went to the village to inoculate the villagers with cowpox. Now it's okay, Sun Zhenren counted all these twenty lives on his head, thinking that it was his poor medical skills that harmed these twenty people. Every day, the cloaks are scattered, and the few words that come and go are all blaming themselves. Zhang Nan obviously didn't want to give Wei Zheng a chance to refute himself, and continued.

"You can be good, you want to sentence this village lightly without clarifying the reason for the matter, and dare to ask Lord Wei what reason can become a reason to deprive others of their lives. If the sentence is lenient, who will pay for the lives of these 20 villagers? What other little girl who has lost her parents is now an orphan, and who will raise her? There is also Sun Zhenren, who was originally a well-respected doctor, but now he is no different from a madman, and all this is because of which village is killing innocents indiscriminately, and now Lord Wei wants to excuse that village in a word, Lord Wei, you are really a good official. Zhang Nan said.

"This, this, this...... I didn't know there were so many other things in it. Wei Zheng arched his hand and said.

"It's not a matter of something, it's that this village is killing someone, and if he breaks the law, he will pay for his life, and no matter what the reason, it can't change the essence of his killing." After Zhang Nan finished speaking, he stood in the team and no longer entangled with Wei Zheng, now Zhang Nan only wanted to find a way to pull back Sun Simiao, who had become a demon, and continue to carry out the Datang medical career.
