Chapter 240 Miao Girl
Meanwhile, the eldest prince, Liu Yao, returned to his palace.
He could no longer contain his joy and burst into laughter.
He laughed and said viciously, "Heaven is helping me! Heaven is truly helping me!"
You old codger, let's see how long you can stay on the throne this time.
I've waited so many years, and you're still alive.
They had Medicine King Valley refine the Heavenly Snow Lotus Pill, but they didn't even give me a single one.
Instead, it was bestowed upon that bitch Qiu Lan and that idiot Liu Yan, the third brother!
Then he coldly said to the empty corner, "Come out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the wall opposite him slowly rotated.
A man dressed in fine clothes and exuding an air of nobility walked out calmly.
The man knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "Leng, greetings to the Crown Prince!"
The eldest prince, Liu Yao, nodded slightly and asked, "Well, how are things going on your end?"
Leng Wei raised her head slightly and said with a firm gaze, "Reporting to the Crown Prince, everything is ready on my side, and everyone is on high alert."
We await only the Crown Prince's order, and will commence operations immediately!
A fierce glint suddenly flashed in the eyes of the eldest prince, Liu Yao.
Then, without hesitation, he decisively ordered: "Alright! You shall depart immediately. I will give you one month, and I will ensure that every person in every region is aware of these rumors."
The more chaos, the better; the more panic, the better!
He paused, a sinister look appearing on his face.
"Especially, we need to make those lowly people believe that the old man ate a heaven-defying elixir of immortality, which is why he angered the heavens and was punished by the gods."
This earthquake caused them to be displaced and suffer immensely!
Leng clasped his hands in a fist and replied, "Yes, Your Highness. I will certainly live up to your expectations and guarantee the completion of the mission!"
The eldest prince, Liu Yao, waved his hand and said, "Go do it!"
Leng turned and retreated behind the wall, which quietly closed as if it had never been opened.
The Crown Prince's Palace returned to calm, everything as usual, as if the First Prince Liu Yao had always been the only person there.
After Liu Yao slowly walked to the seat in front of the Crown Prince and sat down, he gritted his teeth and cursed under his breath.
"You old bastard, this time, I'll make you wish you were dead!"
After saying that, he clenched his fist, a sinister glint in his eyes.
Amid this chaotic situation, the neighboring states of Sichao, Guxuanchao and Qin, also fell into the same predicament.
Their epidemic situation is even more severe than that of Si Chaolai.
The two countries share a vast border with the Kingdom of Ling, and the epidemic spread rapidly along the border like a surging tide.
However, Gu Xuanchao's situation was slightly better than that of the Qin state.
After all, the Qin state not only had a huge beggar gang distributed throughout the country.
The population was several times that of Gu Xuanchao.
This undoubtedly makes epidemic prevention and control even more difficult.
The monarchs of both countries were now extremely distressed.
Inside the palace of Gu Xuanchao, King Yingtian Wu Baihan paced back and forth in the hall with a worried expression on his face.
At this moment, a guard rushed into the hall, knelt on one knee, and reported: "Your Majesty, the eminent monks of Luohan Temple have arrived at the city gate."
Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Wu Baihan's eyes, and he quickly said, "Quickly, invite all the eminent monks into the palace. I want to personally discuss countermeasures with them."
Meanwhile, in the Qin court, King Zhao Ying, his face grim, roared at the assembled officials, "Enough! The epidemic is so severe, yet you're all arguing so heatedly!"
The ministers immediately lowered their heads and remained silent, trembling with fear.
Just then, a guard ran in from outside the palace to report.
"Your Majesty, the three sects of Biyu Nunnery, Shaolin Temple, and Zhenyao Palace have sent people to provide assistance."
The Imperial Preceptor, along with the physicians from the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Medical Academy, had already arrived outside the palace gates to receive them.
The Imperial Preceptor ordered me to report to His Majesty earlier!
Zhao Ying breathed a heavy sigh of relief upon hearing that the three major sects had arrived.
"Very well, quickly have the Celestial Master bring them to the palace to discuss this."
The guard immediately replied, "Yes!"
As Zhao Ying watched the guards retreat, he thought to himself, "I hope they can work together and control this plague as soon as possible!"
Looking across the entire world, only the Gou tribe, the Xia Dynasty, the Xian Dynasty, and four other countries outside the region have not yet been affected by the plague.
And then there's the Miao people living in those remote, isolated mountains.
The tremors from the earth's upheaval also affected them.
However, the harm was not as great as that in the Ling Kingdom.
They continued to live their lives as always.
But they were unaware that a disaster was quietly approaching.
Inside the Gou tribe's royal tent, the Gou tribe's leader, Hu Yuncheng, looked into the distance and said to the generals beside him, "I have heard that the various countries of the Central Plains are suffering from a plague."
Although our Gou people are far from them and have not been affected yet, we cannot let our guard down and must strengthen border patrols to prevent the spread of disease.
The two generals nodded in agreement: "Our leader is wise. We can also prepare some medicines in advance, just in case."
In the Xia Dynasty palace, Emperor Wu Yufei said to his ministers with great concern: "Now the Qin and Si Chao kingdoms are both in the midst of a plague crisis."
Although our dynasty has been fortunate enough to escape infection, we cannot stand idly by as the saying goes, "if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold."
We should send medical officials to collect medicinal herbs from various regions, and at the same time strengthen domestic defenses. We must not allow the plague to set foot in our country.
The ministers readily agreed.
Meanwhile, in Korea, President Bae Seong-deok and his ministers gathered to discuss the pandemic situation in various countries.
"With the plague raging and the world in chaos, our dynasty should also close its borders, strengthen defenses, and avoid excessive contact with the outside world."
But one can also secretly observe the situation, and if an opportunity arises…
The ministers understood immediately and nodded in agreement.
In that secluded Miao tribe, surrounded by green mountains.
A young Miao woman named Aduo was carefully washing clothes by the stream, humming a melodious Miao song.
Beside her was a little girl named Arou.
The two are very close sisters who have played together since childhood.
However, her face now showed a look of sorrow compared to that of the little girl named Aduo.
Looking at the dwindling stream before her, she couldn't help but say, "Aduo, the rainfall has been so scarce this past year. Look, the water in this stream is slowly decreasing."
Ado stopped what she was doing and sighed softly, "Arou, there's nothing we can do about this impending disaster."
We can only hope that our ancestors will bless us and send rain down from the sky.
Arou tilted her head and asked curiously, "Aduo, tell me what it's like outside the mountains? Is it the same as here?"
Ado gazed at the distant, rolling mountains, her eyes filled with longing.
"Ah Rou, how would I know? But I've heard from the tribe that there are many, many different people outside the mountains."
There are also very lively towns, full of strange and wonderful things.
The two of them did the laundry while lost in their daydreams about the world beyond the mountains.
Unaware that a massive disaster was raging outside the mountains, a storm was raging...
