Under the flickering candlelight, Xie Yangui's face became increasingly ugly.

Zhou Jin took the book copied by Ling Yuwei, returned to her, held her hand silently, and looked at her.

"First, help me see if this illness is mentioned in the documents copied by Ling Yuwei?" He quickly calmed down and looked at Zhou Jin.

He agreed, and first checked the documents copied from the Prison Hall to confirm that there was no record on them, so he opened the document from the Ministry of Accounts.

"There is a record here. It only says that the campaign in northern Liaoning requires the collection of medicinal materials. It does not mention what the reason is."

"But judging from the medicinal materials required, they are not much different from the prescription you used. In other words, your fourth brother suffered the same calculation as you, and it must be the same epidemic poison."

Nowadays, there are two diseases in southern Guizhou. One is almost the same as what happened suddenly in the northern prison back then, and the other was contracted by Xie Yangui after he was tricked.

Comparing the two, the epidemic virus in Xie Yangui's home was more serious. Although she took the wrong medicine, which made her condition worse, she was able to calculate the various reactions that the disease could bring about.

She can probably know what will happen to Xie Huaian who was infected with the epidemic virus?

In order to prevent the disease from being brought to the border, Xie Yangui lived in the wilderness with her sick guards. She sent people to leave the prescriptions she got in various places. Even so, some people would still scold her.

It is conceivable what kind of situation Xie Huaian, who brought the epidemic to the border, faced at that time?

Unlike Xie Yangui, he had no idea that he was being plotted, otherwise he would not have gone to the border.

But even if it is an unintentional mistake, what happens next is enough to make people suffer. They are human lives!

"What happened back then, if he was really plotting against the Xie family and Jing Yujun, then why now? Why did he attack the Xie family and Jing Yujun in the first place?"

Xie Yan returned home and was puzzled.

She also thought that maybe it was because the Xie family was invincible against Jing Yu's army that they were feared by His Majesty, but even so, Jing Yu's army of 100,000 should not be lost in northern Liaoning.

Perhaps something went wrong, which led to the end.

But sixteen years later, she encountered the same situation as before. The only difference was that there were no 100,000 Jingyu troops around her, and Qiannan belonged to the Shen family.

As others think, although the Shen family is in charge of Qiannan, it is not comparable to the Xie family back then, otherwise Xie Yangui would not come here.

The soldiers stationed in southern Guizhou today are even worse than Jing Yu's army, otherwise no one would have set up checkpoints to exploit food.

The more Xie Yangui thought about it, the more confused she felt. Her eyes fell on Zhou Jin's face and she found that his expression was very complicated.

A question suddenly occurred to her.

"Ajin, is there anything you want to tell me about you and my aunt?"

After returning to Kyoto from northern Liaoning, she realized that the relationship between Xie Heng and Zhou Jin was not as it appeared.

It can be said that the marriage between her and Zhou Jin was the result of several parties.

She would agree to their marriage because of her appearance. It would be a pity for him to stay in the palace.

Second, I noticed my aunt's secret movements and felt a little curious. New

Moreover, she really needed a marriage at that time, so she just went with the flow.

But she later discovered that Zhou Jin was not as weak as she thought. Even if she did not agree to the marriage, he could still protect himself in the palace.

In this case, maybe his marriage to her was related to his aunt, or maybe it was because of their discussion.

"Without the imperial concubine, I would not have been born." There were some things that Zhou Jin originally wanted to find an opportunity to tell Xie Yangui, but there was never a suitable opportunity.

Since she took the initiative to ask, it was just a good time for him to tell her.

His words made Xie Yangui slightly stunned.

"This jade pendant, you..." Zhou Jin was about to continue talking when a voice suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting him.

"General Qi, someone from the Shen Mansion is here to ask you to come over!"

"Know

Yes." After agreeing, Xie Yangui frowned and then looked at Zhou Jin helplessly.

"I will go with you. As for what I just wanted to say, I will tell you later." Zhou Jin put the book away carefully, returned to her, put his arms around her, "Madam, the small words on the jade pendant are It's my real name."

"Heng?" Xie Yangui looked surprised.

"Yes, my name is Zhou Heng, not Zhou Jin, but Zhou Jin is indeed the name of His Majesty's seventh prince."

"What...what?" Xie Yangui became more and more surprised. She was about to ask again when an urging sound came from outside the house. She had to put aside her doubts for the time being and went to Shen's Mansion with Zhou Jin.

Inside Shen's Mansion, the lights were brightly lit at this time.

The scout responsible for gathering information has returned and has information to report. In addition, there is also some information about the plants on the drawing that Xie Yangui ordered.

When she and Zhou Jin arrived at Shen's Mansion, several lieutenants were waiting in the hall.

The group first called scouts and asked for news outside the city. They learned that the Rong Di army did not have much food, which made Xie Yan feel at ease.

This shows that Rong Di currently has no allies, they are still short of food, and their current spirit is all because they are seeking death.

But she didn't dare to take it lightly. Who could guarantee that this wasn't their deception?

The soldiers in southern Guizhou always suffered at the hands of the Rongdi people, which shows that they are far from that simple.

Although Xie Yangui doesn't understand why the Rongdi people dig their own graves? Are they really ignorant of the dangers of things? Or is there another purpose?

In any case, she must solve the epidemic problem as soon as possible, and cannot let what happened in northern Liaoning happen again in southern Guizhou.

As she was thinking about it, Vice General Wang's voice came, "General, why didn't you go to battle today? What kind of poison is that plant you ordered the soldiers to check?"

Xie Yangui had no intention of hiding it from them. When someone asked, he immediately said, "That thing is extremely poisonous. If someone comes into contact with it, it won't take long for the person to become disabled."

"I was on the city wall today and saw that the Rongdi people outside the border were all in high spirits. They didn't look like they were short of food or drink at all, so I was suspicious..."

She fully explained today's events to several lieutenants.

After hearing this, the lieutenants couldn't help but look at each other.

They often fought against Rong and Di, and had wondered about their situation in the past, but they didn't know the reason. It turned out to be poison.

"Fortunately, the general knew it and sent the order in time. Now there is no trace inside or outside the border. If it were found elsewhere, it would be destroyed immediately." Lieutenant General Wang opened his mouth and saluted Xie Yangui.

After he finished speaking, the others all agreed.
