"Then what do you think about this matter?"
"Your Majesty, this matter can be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment!"
Yu Shilin thought for a while that this matter can only be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment, and no one else can handle it.
"Okay, this matter will be handed over to the Ministry of Punishment."
Emperor Guangxiao decided.
"Since the emperor's incident was premeditated, it will inevitably attract questions from other countries. I believe that the envoy will arrive soon, and we still need to be prepared."
Bai Jizhong said.
"Well, the matter of receiving envoys will be handed over to Prime Minister Zuo and the Ministry of Rites."
Emperor Guangxiao ordered things to go on.
"Follow the order!"
Yu Shilin and Qiu Yeming led the order.
"Your Majesty!"
Wei Gao walked in from the outside.
"What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Qi took Sun Miao to the Jiren Hall of the Ye family, announcing that the medicines for treatment will start to be sold in the afternoon. At the same time, Imperial Physician Sun sent news that King Qi took them to find the source!"
Wei Gao told Emperor Guangxiao the news from Sun Miao.
Although Zhou Heng said that there was no need to tell Emperor Guangxiao about this matter, Sun Miao still felt that he should tell the emperor.
"He went to investigate?"
Emperor Guangxiao didn't expect Zhou Heng to think of something with them, and even acted before them.
"That's right, you should have left Chang'an City by now."
Wei Gao said.
"Bao Ying ordered your Ministry of Criminal Justice to fully cooperate with King Qi's investigation." Emperor Guangxiao told Bao Ying that since Zhou Heng had already started the investigation, there was no need for the Ministry of Criminal Justice to re-investigate, just go to Zhou Heng directly.
"clear."
Without further ado, Bao Ying withdrew from the imperial study after receiving the decree.
Departing from Chang'an City, we came to the suburbs.
The situation in the suburbs is more serious than that in Chang'an City.
"There should be a porridge shed and a medicine shed here, so that everyone can drink medicine!" Zhou Heng said, these people can't go to Chang'an City, so they can only come to find a way to solve the problem.
"good."
Sun Miao nodded, these things will be arranged immediately after returning.
"Also, the surrounding areas should be thoroughly disinfected, and some lime powder should be sprinkled. If there are dead people, they must be cremated immediately." Zhou Heng began to explain in detail to Sun Miao one by one.
Sun Miao also recorded it carefully.
Walking around the countryside, Zhou Heng passed several villages.
"What do you think?"
Su Ningyu asked Zhou Heng, they had gone to several places, and Zhou Heng didn't say anything, could it be that they came in vain this time.
"I suspect it's a well water problem!"
Zhou Heng pointed to the well in the village. There was only one well in the village, and everyone came here to fetch water, so Zhou Heng felt that someone had tampered with the well.
"If so, how do we investigate?"
Ye Xingbang frowned, isn't this a fantasy, anyone can come to the well, anyone is possible.
"No, this matter is easier."
Zhou Heng shook his head. Although anyone can come to the edge of the well, this well is the only place to drink water in the whole village. The well is very important and will be guarded by special people.
Just find that person and ask about the situation.
"Brother!"
Zhou Heng stopped a person walking in front of him.
"Do you have something to do?"
The person in front of him stopped and looked at Zhou Heng and the others. This person was tall and built with dark skin. He had a physique trained through years of hard work. As for the skin, it should be caused by sun exposure.
The Chinese character face, with a few wrinkles on the face, is about forty years old.
Looking at a hoe on his shoulder, the man stopped when he heard Zhou Heng call out, put down the hoe and asked Zhou Heng and the others what was the matter.
"Brother, I want to ask if the well in your village is guarded every day?"
Zhou Heng pointed to the well and asked.
The man glanced at the well.
"Why don't you look at it? This well is the only place to draw water in the village. Everyone takes turns to look at it. It will be my turn tomorrow!" The man glanced at the well and replied.
"Then may I ask how many of you can see it?"
Zhou Heng continued to ask.
Zhou Heng continued to ask, the man's eyes became a little wary, and he looked at Zhou Heng suspiciously, not understanding why.?Ask such an inexplicable thing.
"Brother, don't be nervous, we just ask casually!" Zhou Heng took out a silver coin and put it in the man's hand while speaking.
See silver.
"There are ten families in total, two families in one group, and one group is responsible for ten days, but I don't know what happened recently. Many people in the village have suffered from the cold, so everyone has been busy with their own affairs these days and has not come to guard the well."
The man replied.
"Then when did the cold start?"
"Half a month ago! I remember it quite clearly, because at that time several houses showed signs of cold and cold." The man frowned and said.
These people don't know what typhoid fever is, so until now they still think it is a cold.
Zhou Hengxin said that sometimes it is a kind of happiness not to know. If he knew that it was wind and cold, the village would have been in chaos long ago.
"Then do you know if any strange things happened in the village before this happened? For example, what happened to this well?"
Zhou Heng began to slowly induce the man to recall the situation at that time carefully.
"Nothing happened!"
The man frowned.
"What's the matter, Lao Wang?"
The man was recalling what happened when a voice came from another place and called Lao Wang. The man immediately turned his head, "Xie, do you know what happened in our village half a month ago?"
Lao Wang asked Lao Xie's man.
"Yes, you forgot, didn't we worship the heavens? We also invited the Taoist priest of Xiayun Temple!" Lao Xie's man came over and said.
"Yes, yes, you didn't say that I almost forgot, but there is such a thing."
Lao Wang told Zhou Heng and the others what happened in detail.
This worship to heaven is a custom in their village, hoping that there will be a good weather and a good harvest.
"Then did the Taoist priest say that your well is the eye of Fengshui in your village, where luck lies!" Zhou Heng said wildly.
After Zhou Heng finished speaking, Lao Wang and Lao Xie looked at Zhou Heng in astonishment.
"That's right, how do you know? Could it be that you are also an expert?"
Lao Wang said in shock that although what Zhou Heng said was somewhat different, the content was roughly the same.
"Understood, thank you!"
Zhou Heng didn't say anything more, turned around and left with Su Ningyu and the others.
"What about you, my lord? You also know metaphysics?" Ye Xingbang asked curiously, he was eager to know how Zhou Heng saw it.
"A wild guess."
Zhou Heng said.
This is a means of bluffing people, the theory of ghosts and gods, the theory of metaphysics, which are mysterious but in the final analysis are related to psychology, which is to study human psychology and make you believe in its existence.
The well is the only place for drinking water in the whole village, so it is naturally an important existence in everyone's mind. If you want to fool around, you must not do without the well.
"Is blind guessing so accurate?"
A few people were dumbfounded, but they didn't expect Zhou Heng to guess nonsense.
"If my guess is correct, this incident has something to do with this Xiayun Temple. Go to several other villages to see if they have the same incident."
Zhou Heng felt that this matter had begun to become clear. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
