Mr. Fang, who had been closing his eyes, finally opened his eyes, but his eyes seemed a little distracted. He looked at Chen Kaizhi hard, and then said in surprise: "Is it Kaizhi?"

Chen Kaizhi nodded and said with tears in his eyes: "Yes, mentor, you don't have to worry." While saying that, he approached Mr. Fang so that his ears could be closer and his mentor would be less laborious in speaking.

Mr. Fang was silent for a long time. He was weak, but he had no idea where he came from. He struggled to sit up, raised his hand, and gave Chen Kaizhi a slash, saying sternly: "What are you here to do? You are so confused, I am already fifty-three. Even if you are sick, you have lived enough in this life. Are you here to die even outside the epidemic area? You... you are not saying that you want to change your destiny, you are not going to marry the daughter of the Xun family, you... you are not asking for fame, you are really confused."

Chen Kaizhi felt so uncomfortable that he felt aching on his face, but he didn't dare to refute it, but said, "The student knew that he was wrong, but his teacher is here, and the student has to come. Mentor, I'll show you the disease first."

Mr. Fang seemed to have taken all his strength because of his violent actions just now, and then collapsed weakly. He sighed and said worriedly: "No need, I also know some medical skills. This heavenly plague had ravaged Jiangnan fifteen years ago, causing nine out of ten rooms. Thinking about the time, many imperial doctors and famous doctors were looking for treatment, but they had no choice but to do anything. I... I knew that I would not live long. I was fortunate to be with you and your senior brother, and I could finally be safe outside, but I didn't expect that you are so confused, you... are still young..."

Chen Kaizhi took a deep breath and said, "If others can't cure it, it doesn't mean that the students have no chance. Even if they take a step back, thousands of people are infected in this epidemic area. Why can't they try it instead of sitting there waiting for death? Mentor, let the students give it a try."

Mr. Fang's eyes finally had a light of hope, and he said, "Do you know how to cure diseases?"

Chen Kaizhi shook his head and said, "The students don't understand very much, but they have heard of some folk remedies."

He did not have any folk remedies. He left his hometown and went to the African continent. There, because of the simple medical treatment, the entire continent and even the basic epidemic prevention system were not established. Various plagues were rampant. As a person who lives outside, Chen Kaizhi had encountered many large-scale epidemics. Because of this, he had some understanding of general infectious diseases.

Mr. Fang just sighed, and his eyes returned to his deep worries.

……………………

In the Tongzhi Hall, Yang Tongzhi received a report from Xuanwu County in the middle of the night and hurriedly called the magistrate of Zheng County.

As soon as he saw the Zheng County Magistrate, Yang Tongzhi was furious and asked for punishment: "Mr. Zheng, what's going on? Why did Chen Kaizhi escape in the blink of an eye?"

The magistrate of Zheng bowed and said, "It is a dereliction of duty for the sake of the emperor, so please punish him severely."

Yang Tongzhi sneered, dereliction of duty, severe punishment? This old man actually knew that he could not do anything to him. He had already dealt with a Jiangning County Magistrate. Could it be that even the Xuanwu County Magistrate was dealt with?

He tried his best to calm his anger and said calmly: "I have sent someone to capture him, and he can't escape."

Zheng County Magistrate said: "Your Madam is a good planner. It is hard to escape the master's control. I think it's easy to get it, and it doesn't take any effort."

How come this tone sounds like irony?

Yang Tongzhi sat down, took a sip of tea, and said, "The epidemic prevention matter is not bad now. Zhu Zihe from Jiangning County has ordered people to take care of him. I personally inquire about the epidemic prevention in Jiangning County. Jiangning County is the hardest hit area of ​​the epidemic, but you should not be lucky."

The magistrate of Zheng County said yes repeatedly.

Yang Tongzhi said a few words, feeling that it was meaningless and was about to send the magistrate Zheng away.

At this time, someone hurried to report: "Sir, sir, Chen Kaizhi, appeared in the Confucian Temple early this morning. He was there to tell me that my mentor was in the epidemic area. I asked the Supreme Master for his blessing, and then... Then... he entered the epidemic area..."

"What!" Yang Tongzhi's face changed and subconsciously suddenly appeared.

After entering the epidemic area, Chen Kaizhi was certainly dead. The plague of heaven is extremely powerful. Moreover, once blocked, it will be a dead place. Even if it is not infected with the plague of heaven, there will be insufficient food in it. After the natural disaster, it will inevitably lead to the government. It is impossible for the government to let you out just because you are not infected with the disease, because no one can ensure absolute safety. However, Chen Kaizhi was fine if he died, but he went to the Confucian Temple to worship first. This is another matter.

Yang Tongzhi said coldly: "What do this thief prisoner want to do?"

The civil servant said: "Students...students don't know, but... it is reported that the adult's list has been cancelled."

Yang Tongzhi suddenly shuddered.

The Wenbang was posted by various counties yesterday, which simply refers to the criticism that Chen Kaizhi was the root of all chaos and wanted to capture the rebel Chen Kaizhi. Chen Kaizhi sued Confucius Temple, turned around, and entered the epidemic area. Pukou County was not far from Jinling, just outside the city, and belonged to a suburb. The county magistrate had a good or bad relationship with him, but when he heard this disturbance, he immediately removed the Wenbang, and he could not understand the meaning.

Because respecting teachers and respecting Tao!

Even if an official respects God and Buddha, he has a sense of awe of God, he ultimately claims to be the birth of Yan Shenggong. For all officials who have a background in their studies, respecting teachers and respecting Tao is the highest virtue.

Now, Yang Tongzhi said that Chen Kaizhi did something that angered God. But a person who walked into the epidemic area to save his master without hesitation, a person with such moral character, would harm the will of heaven. Is this... a thing that happened?

Pukou County was moving very quickly, obviously not only because the county magistrate respected Chen Kaizhi, but most of them had political considerations. After all, they were Confucian scholars, and Confucian scholars respected ghosts and gods and distanced them from them. Although they respected heaven, there was no need to pay too much attention. The Pukou County magistrate was a great scholar and was born into a family of poetry and books that passed down from classics and meanings. He would never do anything to insult his family.

After thinking through the joints inside, Yang Tongzhi was furious and said sternly: "The person surnamed Zhang is so straightforward!"

The magistrate Zheng looked at Yang Tongzhi deeply and couldn't help but admire Chen Kaizhi. Chen Kaizhi was just using his life to fight against Yang Tongzhi.

County Magistrate Zheng looked up on his face and said leisurely: "Sir, County Magistrate Pukou is not wrong."

Yang Tongzhi glared at him: "What, what are your opinions?"

The magistrate of Zheng County said calmly: "All the kings, the elders and teachers, and those who respect teachers are filial. Those who are filial are loyal to the kings, and those who are loyal to the kings are all respectful to the heavens. Chen Kai's respect for teachers and Taoism is a great virtue. How could a person with great virtue anger the heavens? Sir, please forgive the rude officials, so he said goodbye. After returning to the yamen, he immediately removed the quotation text, so he would not let the group talks be violent. The scholars and the clerks were so excited that they changed their courses? By then, it was too late."

Yang Tongzhi couldn't help but glance at Zheng County Magistrate in surprise, but what surprised him even more was that Chen Kaizhi had such a trick before he died.

The next moment, he smiled coldly and said, "Mr. Zheng, do you think this matter is my husband's idea alone?"

This is a naked threat.

This is telling the Zheng County Magistrate that this matter is not that simple.

County Magistrate Zheng still looked calm and looked up at Yang Tongzhi's cold eyes and said, "Why can't you see through some things in the ups and downs of the officialdom? Behind this matter is indeed far from that simple, but it would be fine if Chen Kaizhi didn't enter the epidemic area. He could have escaped, but for his mentor to die. Such a great virtue, this courage really made the officials admire him. Since the officials knew that some things were wrong, if they were still determined to act alone at this time, how could they be worthy of their conscience?"

"Conscience?" Yang Tongzhi laughed in anger: "Don't think I don't know how much money you greedy in office, and you are worthy of conscience?"

County Magistrate Zheng was silent. He seemed to be weighing something. Finally, he said seriously: "The officials may not be a good official, but the officials still have some conscience. Although there are not many, it is enough to remind the officials to do the right thing. The officials bid farewell here. Sir, please forgive the officials for saying goodbye first."

Yang Tongzhi was furious as he looked at the back of County Magistrate Zheng’s departure, and at the same time, he had a little bad thought in his heart.

He thought he had always been under his control, but unexpectedly, in an instant, the public opinion and people's hearts in Jinling turned around.

"Okay, very good, then it depends on who is in Jinling." He murmured in a low voice, and then said: "Come here, I will pass on the order of my official, and the next official document will be given to the Jinling Shence Guard. Due to the urgent disaster, the guard commander will urgently mobilize troops and defend the outside of the epidemic area. No fly is allowed to fly out!"

After pausing, he said again: "Chen Kaizhi, Chen Kaizhi, you are about to die, and you still want to stab me in the back."
