Datang: Showdown, your father and I are Li Shimin

Chapter 22

"Refugees?" Li Ze frowned, feeling something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say it out.

"Separate them into shelters." Li Ze waved his hands at several villagers, he didn't want to move any more people who were here now.

Too sleepy!
After a whole night, Li Ze's eyelids were as heavy as stones, he casually leaned against a doorpost of the medical hall, and fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

As soon as the villagers left, the five "refugees" got up from the bed and approached Li Ze on tiptoe.

The leader was Zhou Feng, who approached Li Ze quietly, and immediately saw the acne on Li Ze's face.

"Second...he seems to have been infected with smallpox?" Zhou Feng frowned, and turned to look at his second brother Zhou Li behind him.

"It seems to be." Zhou Li looked around Li Ze carefully, thinking constantly in his mind.

A doctor, surrounded by a bunch of smallpox patients every day, it is strange not to be infected with smallpox.

Why did the grown-ups want them to help this doctor get smallpox?
Too rich to burn?
This official way of retaliating against people is really enough to burn money.

"Then what should we do?" The other looked around at his friends, not knowing what to do next.

The five people looked at each other, unable to make up their minds for a moment.

The people who found them said that they wanted the doctor in Du village to be infected with smallpox, but now that he has already suffered from smallpox, wouldn't it be superfluous to ask them to come?
But my family took another ten taels of silver from others, so is it possible that I have to pay it back?
At this time, Zhou Feng, the leader, rolled his narrowed eyes and suddenly lowered his voice and smiled: "We have all collected the money anyway, and there is nothing we can do to return these ten taels of silver to them. Although this The doctor has contracted smallpox, but they don’t know who did it.”

"Tomorrow I will say that I caused this doctor to contract smallpox without anyone knowing it. Even if they investigate, they don't know where this doctor's smallpox came from. When the time comes, we will get the money and the five of us will share it equally and fly away. , what do you think?"

"Brother is a good plan!" Zhou Li nodded in praise.

Several others nodded and responded quietly.

After finishing speaking, the five of them returned to the sickbed they had just arranged for themselves.

"Hiss—" As soon as Zhou Li lay down, the abscess on his body was squeezed open, and a sharp tingling sensation spread all over his body like an electric shock.

He grinned in pain, but didn't dare to make any sound.

The next day.

Li Ze decocted and took medicines for those patients for daily inspections. At the same time, he first planted smallpox on a cow in his village.

It will take a lot of time to transport grain from Chang'an City to here.

Li Ze also asked someone to disperse Li Er's rewards for him, and bought all the food in Chang'an City.

But if these things are to be transported out of the city under the situation that the city is closed everywhere, there are still many procedures to go through.

Du Village is under the hard work of the whole village.

Half of the road outside the medical hall has been paved with straw sheds and straw mats, so there is no problem in accommodating fifty or sixty victims.

The next day, Li Ze treated these seriously ill people on a daily basis. The outside and the back of the medical hall were already covered with thatched sheds and simple beds.

The medicinal herbs available in the medical hall are almost exhausted.

Many people have gradually become ill because of the scarcity of medicines and food supply problems.

But Li Ze can only use all the resources at hand as much as possible to keep everyone in Du Village from dying.

It is estimated that the entire Du Village is very likely to receive 20 patients within a month, and the dozens of beds are still extremely limited right now.

Now the entire Du Village is short of everything, food and herbs are still on the way, the only thing to do is wait for time.

But what we need most right now is time.

Many of the medicinal herbs collected outside the village by villagers who went out were only a drop in the bucket.

The only few decoctions were given to the critically ill patients, and the whole village was waiting for the imperial court to distribute relief materials and herbs.

into the night.

Except for a few guards in the whole village, everyone else has fallen asleep.

But at this moment, Zhou Feng quietly got up.

All the way around the name of the patrolling village in the village, and sneaked away from Du Village.

Led by the faint moonlight, they came to a small camp in the distance.

"Mr. Jun, please report to the grassroots man Zhou Feng, and report something important to General Sima."

The guard glanced at the person, turned around and approached the tent.

After a while, Sima Yao came out of the tent wearing a nightgown and covering his mouth and nose with a silk cloth.

"General Sima, the task you entrusted to me has been completed. That kid has contracted smallpox and is dying. He probably won't live long."

Zhou Feng knelt on the ground when he saw Sima Yao coming out of the tent.

Sima Yao stared at Zhou Feng with eyes only on his face, "Are you sure Li Ze has smallpox?"

"It's very true, my lord, that kid's face is full of abscesses now, I can't see it for three days, he will definitely die!" Zhou Feng looked at Sima Yao obsequiously, like a dog wagging its tail for mercy.

Sima Yao let out a slight sneer: "Come here...a reward of one hundred taels of gold!"

Zhou Feng excitedly kowtowed to Sima Yao: "General Xie... General Xie!"

After knocking for a long time, finally a soldier in armor and cloth covering his face came forward and put a wooden tray and a cloth bag on the ground not far from Zhou Feng.

Zhou Feng knelt and crawled in front of the tray with great excitement, looking at the ten gold ingots of ten taels neatly arranged in the tray, he was very excited.

The faint light of the fire in front of the camp shone on the gold, reflecting from the gold to Zhou Feng's eyes.

Zhou Feng's eyes shone with golden light, and the greed in his eyes was beyond words.

There will always be brave men under heavy rewards, and there will always be people who can't stand the temptation to do these dirty jobs.

Zhou Feng excitedly picked up a gold ingot with one hand, and bit it hard.

The moment the teeth touched the gold, a conspicuous mark was immediately left.

Zhou Feng was so excited that he almost jumped up, and he bit off a mark on the ten gold ingots one after another, his greedy eyes sparkled under the light of the fire.

With the sound of "Ding Ding Dang Dang", ten gold ingots were put into the cloth bag, and Zhou Feng walked towards Du Village excitedly.

A total of 100 taels of yellow scarves, the five of them, basically no longer have to worry about food and clothing in this life.

100 taels of gold is enough for an ordinary person to last a lifetime.

However, in the camp behind him, another person was introduced.

"This is Hedinghong. If you kill them, all their rewards will go to your family. At the same time, this general guarantees that your whole family will be safe for the rest of their lives, and this general has another reward."

Sima Yao took out a small paper bag from his pocket and handed it to a dead man.

As long as Zhou Feng and the other five were eliminated, he would commit suicide by taking poison, and Du Village would naturally gather their corpses together and burn them all.

Dead without proof.

And the family of the dead man will receive a very generous reward.

After the dead man left, Sima Yao suddenly turned around and burst out laughing, and bowed deeply towards the corner of the tent: "Grand Liu! What a great way, I really admire it!"
