The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

"I am just doing my best to benefit the people."

"Once this cement road is completed, it will be a great event for our city of Chang'an. I am also looking forward to it!" Li Chengqian sat on a small stool with a hint of pride on his face.

But there are also things that make Li Chengqian not so happy.

That is, Zhao Chen actually sent someone to the palace with the emperor's letter.

In front of Li Chengqian, he emptied all the emperor's private treasury.

400,000 yuan, not a penny left.

Li Chengqian felt a little scared when he thought of the empty emperor's private treasury.

He was thinking at that time, how could the emperor agree to let Zhao Chen empty his private treasury!

"Your Highness, I heard that the money used to build the cement road in Chang'an City actually came from His Majesty's private treasury."

"A total of 400,000 yuan!"

Li Chengqian was thinking about this when he suddenly heard Fang Xuanling say this.

At that moment my heart skipped a beat!

Zhao Chen promised him to build cement roads for free in Chang'an City, but he actually emptied the emperor's private treasury?

Does the emperor know about this?

If the emperor knew, it would be easier to handle.

But if the emperor didn't know, he would have thought that Li Chengqian had used money from the emperor's private treasury to build this cement road to win over the people.

Then the emperor is so angry that he kills himself?

Four hundred thousand dollars.

The private treasury has been emptied!

The emperor failed to benefit and lost 400,000 yuan, but Li Chengqian fulfilled him instead?

Li Chengqian didn't think that the emperor would pretend that nothing happened.

In just a moment, drops of cold sweat slid down Li Chengqian's back.

"Prime Minister, does this money for road construction really come from my father's private treasury?" Li Chengqian was a little unwilling.

Once the money comes from the emperor's private treasury.

How dare he, Li Chengqian, take advantage of this?

If he dares to steal this merit from the emperor, will the emperor spare him lightly?

"Probably." Fang Xuanling nodded.

When he got the news, he also felt that Li Chengqian was giving Zhao Chen

Tricked.

Zhao Chen probably expected that Li Chengqian would ask him to build roads in Chang'an City early on.

So I got it from the emperor early, and somehow got the emperor to agree to take out all the money from his private treasury and use it to build roads in Chang'an City!

Then he pretended to agree to Li Chengqian's request.

In fact, the money for road construction came from the emperor's private treasury!

It’s scary, this level of calculation!

Changsun Wuji seemed to understand at this moment why Zhao Chen agreed so readily that day.

Without even a moment's hesitation, he agreed to build a cement road in Chang'an for free.

It's not free. It's obvious that the emperor's money was used to build this road.

Changsun Wuji was even thinking.

Is the emperor in Wannian County? In fact, the emperor has long said that he will use private money to build a cement road.

Then Zhao Chen happened to take advantage of him once.

Li Chengqian's face looked extremely ugly at the moment.

He found that he seemed to be being played by Zhao Chen again!

Zhao Chen didn't do anything but let himself take the initiative to apologize to Li Ke.

Now, Li Chengqian doesn't even dare to take the credit for building the road.

"Asshole!" Li Chengqian burst out.

The ministers lowered their heads one after another and did not dare to answer.

"Pass this order from me..."

"Your Highness, there is news that a plague has appeared in the Wannian County area." A voice echoed in the Taiji Hall.

…

"Your Majesty the County Magistrate!"

"Lord Magistrate, please save us, we really don't want to die!"

"Lord Magistrate, please let us leave. If we stay here, we will all die!"

"If you really want to die, please let my little baby leave. He must live."

As soon as Zhao Chen got off his horse, he was surrounded by a crowd of people.

each

Everyone looked like they were begging.

Some people were even kneeling on the ground.

"Drive them all aside. No one is allowed to come near. Go back and let people prepare the camp here. No one is allowed to enter or leave!" Zhao Chen frowned.

The plague is not that simple.

Moreover, Zhao Chen didn’t even know what kind of plague this was.

Qin Huaiyu took the order and left, leading the government officials to drive all the people aside.

The people were crying and yelling behind their backs, but Zhao Chen just pretended not to hear them. ??

Looking at the people lying in front of him, Zhao Chen hesitated for a moment.

"Zhao Chen, what are you doing?" Li Shimin was shocked when he saw Zhao Chen walking forward as soon as he arrived.

He hurriedly jumped off the horse, rushed to Zhao Chen, and grabbed his arm.

"Go and see what the plague is and prepare to save people!" Zhao Chen turned around and said to Li Shimin.

If the plague is not controlled and allowed to spread, no one can escape.

Once the plague completely spreads, I don’t know how many people will die.

Zhao Chen was originally unwilling to take care of it, but what should he do if someone around him accidentally contracted the plague?

"No, you can't go there." Li Shimin didn't let go at all.

How could he trust Zhao Chen to take this risk?

This is a plague.

If something really happened to Zhao Chen, what should Li Shimin do?

Who can save Zhao Chen?

"Zhao Chen, listen to your majesty, you really can't go, I'm going to help you take a look." Wei Zheng and Zhao Chen advised, and then they went forward.

"You don't understand anything, so what's the use of going!" Zhao Chen frowned and shouted.

"But……"

"Bring a piece of wet cloth." Zhao Chen and Cheng Chumo shouted behind him.

Cheng Chumo found a piece of wet cloth and handed it to Zhao Chen.

Then Zhao Chen covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth, broke away from Li Shimin's hand, and walked forward.

"Zhao Chen..." Li Shimin was anxious

shouted.

Zhao Chen moved forward and came to the people lying on the ground in a few steps.

Then he saw this man lying on the ground, his face was pale, and his body was covered with pustules and blisters.

After just one glance, Zhao Chen came back immediately.

"How about it?"

"What kind of plague is it?"

"How are you doing!"

Li Shimin and several others asked at the same time.

"It's smallpox!" Zhao Chen said.

"Smallpox? How could it be smallpox!" Li Shimin's face became extremely ugly at that time.

Diseases like smallpox appear inexplicably.

And when the smallpox infection started, there was no movement.

It would take a few days before there would be any reaction.

Smallpox can be spread through sneezing, coughing, or even breathing.

In just the past few days, I don’t know how many people have been infected.

At present, it is estimated that few of these people are not infected.

"You guys should leave here quickly." Zhao Chen and Li Shimin said.

If you stay here any longer, you might get infected.

Once this kind of smallpox spreads, it is impossible to control it.

"You leave with me!" Li Shimin will not leave Zhao Chen here alone.

Li Shimin knew about smallpox and the horror of this plague.

Once you are really infected, you can basically wait to die!

How could he feel relieved if Zhao Chen stayed here?

"Then what should they do?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Shimin and said lightly.

Li Shimin didn't look back, looked at Zhao Chen blankly, and said, "You are more important than them."

"Human lives are the same. If I stay here, I can save their lives." Zhao Chen waved his hand and said calmly.

"Then I'll stay here too. I won't leave you alone outside, and your aunt won't agree!" Li Shimin said slowly.

He looked calm, not knowing what he was thinking.
