Chapter 467: The Plague and the Peace
The situation in Ningshui City was much better, not too many people got the plague, and not too many people died, but the houses were overwhelmed a bit, and some people were homeless.
But with the help of the government, these people will not be able to sleep on the streets.
Baoyun was indeed tired after running around all night, and after making sure that there were no so-called corpses of Nanyue people in Ningshui City, she was relieved, and did not ask about other things, so that Wang Muzhi arranged to rest.
She rested, but Wei Rong didn't. After she fell asleep, Wei Rong took people around Ningshui City, and found that the situation was indeed what Wang Muzhi said, and he was relieved.
If there were really South Vietnamese corpses here, the situation here would not be so light.
By the time Baoyun woke up, it was already dusk, and she slept very well this night, not even dreaming, as if it was just a time to close her eyes and open her eyes.
After she woke up, Caiyun appeared beside her. Caiyun didn't know how to ride a horse, but he still chased all the way here in a carriage.
Seeing her wake up, Caiyun asked people to inform Wei Rong while helping Baoyun make up.
Bao Yun found out that she was really a little unaccustomed to not having Caiyun by her side, for example, she slept in her clothes, and she didn't even have time to take off the hairpin ring.
After changing her clothes, Caiyun brought hot water into her and helped her wash her face, and Wei Rong also came, still holding food in his hands.
"You're awake, see what good food I've brought you." Wei Rong said and walked in.
Before he could get in front of him, Bao Yun smelled the fragrance, which seemed to be ...... Chicken.
Since coming to the north, although Bao Yun is running around all day long, she has almost never been touched with meat, in the disaster area, it is good to have food, her treatment is slightly better, at least there are white flour steamed buns to eat every day.
After so many days of not touching meat, she still swallowed when she smelled the aroma of roast chicken. But thinking of the people who were still in dire straits, she felt that her thoughts were too sinful.
Just about to refuse, I heard Wei Rong say: "Don't worry, this is what I bought from a fellow countryman's family, and I specially gave him two taels of gold and rice." The people are suffering, but I can't let you suffer too. ”
These sentences blocked back what Bao Yun wanted to say, and seeing Wei Rong's somewhat emaciated and tired face, she was also a little unbearable, sat down and said, "Then you can eat together, right?" ”
Wei Rongzi would not refuse, but he still let Baoyun eat most of it.
After finishing the meal, Wei Rong asked, "What are you going to do next?" ”
Bao Yun's attention was originally on her own round solitude, but when she heard Wei Rong's words, she was like deflated, and she didn't feel that she was full for an instant.
After thinking for a moment, she didn't answer Wei Rong, but asked, "Is the time of Nanyue about to enter Beijing soon?" ”
Not surprisingly, Wei Rong nodded and said: "I just received the news that in ten days at the latest, the envoys of South Vietnam will enter Beijing, and their main purpose this time is to sue for peace, and they can't afford to consume the battle in the south." ”
"In the same way, we Qi Sheng can't afford to consume it, can we?" Bao Yun then asked.
This time, Wei Rong didn't say anything, just nodded silently.
That is to say, this peace request is imperative for the two countries, but some people do not want to negotiate peace, so such a thing has happened.
If the people of Qi Sheng knew how the plague came about, under such circumstances, if Qi Sheng still negotiated peace with South Vietnam, he would lose the support of the people.
However, if the crusade against South Vietnam continues, the imperial court will not be able to support it, and if someone commits rebellion, it will be a good time.
So she must not let this peace negotiation fail!
Bao Yun thought about it, a layer of coldness appeared in her eyes, and said: "We have to come up with a way not to let people disrupt the peace, which will not be beneficial to the people of the two countries." ”
In this regard, Wei Rong did not have a perfect solution, so he could only say what he thought: "Now we don't know whether South Vietnam really wants to negotiate peace, we don't know whether the plague matter was done by the people who proposed the peace, or whether there were people in South Vietnam who wanted to disrupt this peace negotiation. ”
"If you want to disrupt the peacemakers, it's very easy to do, as long as you find out who did it. Let the South Vietnamese dispose of this person, it will have little impact on the peace, and it will also let the people of Qi Sheng see the determination of the South Vietnamese people to negotiate peace. ”
Hearing this, Bao Yun also knew what Wei Rong wanted to say. If the plague had been the work of those in power in South Vietnam, the situation would have been difficult.
That shows that the South Vietnamese people did not think of negotiating peace at all.
"I asked people to go to South Vietnam to inquire, and there were indeed people in South Vietnam who had a plague, but because they had a plan to deal with it before, it didn't cause any chaos. This can confirm that the plague was indeed transmitted from South Vietnam, but we do not yet know the purpose of the perpetrators of this man-made disaster. Wei Rong said again.
Baoyun was a little discouraged and a little withdrawn, she never thought that she would have to face such a difficult thing, what good way could she be a girl in this kind of national affairs.
But thinking of those who had died in this plague, and of the horrific situation in which her people had died in the previous life, she knew she had to hold on.
No matter how hard it is, she has to keep going.
Besides, this road is not walking by herself, she still has Wei Rong by her side.
Thinking about it, she took a deep breath, cheered herself up, and asked Wei Rong: "If this was not done by the people in power in South Vietnam, then we don't have to bother very much." If it is the one in power who does it, can we do something to prepare him so that he has to find a scapegoat and say that it is all the fault of South Vietnam. ”
That's a good idea, but the problem is that there are loopholes.
Wei Rong thought about it, but still shook his head and said: "I think this is too risky, it is better to put this matter on the head of the Sheng family for the time being, so that when the Sheng family confesses the mastermind behind the scenes, the South Vietnamese people will still be at a loss, and they will find a scapegoat, which will not have a great impact on the peace." ”
Wei Rong's method is indeed more thoughtful than hers, Bao Yun thought in her heart, the corners of her mouth slowly raised a smile, and nodded: "Then do as you say, then what we have to do now is to find out the flaws of the Sheng family." ”
Finding evidence of the Sheng family's involvement in this matter is also easier said than done.
Wei Rong knew this very well, but looking at Bao Yun's smile that was finally raised, he didn't want to let the smile dim, so he nodded and agreed.
