Faced with Gong Xiqiu's questioning, Zhang He's response was only a long silence. Judging from his expression, he obviously knew about this matter. No need for more answers, Gong Xiqiu already understood and uttered a A scornful sneer.

"This is the order of a country's imperial doctor? It's really eye-opening. He's just a mediocre person who cares about fame and fortune and doesn't care about the lives of the people! You don't think that you can save something by sitting in Lingzhou Yiru, right?" Xiqiu's words contained a gun and a stick, causing Shen Tang to look sideways secretly, with a little surprise appearing in his eyes.

The Gong Xiqiu she knew was unbeatable on the battlefield and unbeatable on the battlefield. He was just a 24K pure fool who suffered the loss of being uneducated. She never expected that he actually had "eloquence" This thing is not bad at irritating people.

Zhang He didn't take these words to heart.

But that doesn't mean others shouldn't worry too.

Immediately, Zhang He's confidant, the guard leader, couldn't help but stand up and say a fair word for Zhang He.

"Although I don't know the grudge between this gentleman and my lord, it is true that my lord saved thousands of people in Lingzhou, and it is also true that he protected the people of Ru in Yi. My lord had previously been ordered by the medical department to obey the orders of the king. He disobeyed the king's orders. Lang Jun really doesn’t know what will happen to him?"

This guard leader is a close confidant of Zhang He. He has been following him for a long time and knows a lot about the past.

Zhang He did not take the initiative to contact Gu insects.

As the Imperial Physician at that time and the most skilled physician in the Medical Department, the leader of the Xin Kingdom gave him an order to study Gu insects. Could Zhang He still object? Later, he was subjected to a murderous liquidation operation by the leader of the country. He escaped by luck and recovered. Get a life back.

Can the annihilation of the Gongxi clan be attributed to Zhang He?

Did he deliberately throw away the so-called holy objects?

As for epidemics in various places...

It's even less likely that it was the Lord Zhang He who did it.

This leads us to ask what King Xin’s royal family did.

In his opinion, Gong Xiqiu's hatred was just immature anger. It was obvious that his lord had a good temper and had the patience to allow such unknown people to talk nonsense without driving them away.

In response to this, Gong Xiqiu just chuckled meaningfully: "Yes, yes, everything you say is right."

He didn't take this guard leader seriously at all.

His eyes looked past him and fell directly on Zhang He.

"I just have a piece of advice. I hope your lord can remember - it is best not to explore the secrets of the Gongxi clan. Otherwise, even if I am the only one left in the Gongxi clan, I will let you know what regret is! Such as Gu Ren’s subordinates should never have such a ‘host’, it’s best to just have one like this!”

Zhang Hegujing's eyes finally showed a trace of confusion: "Gu Ren? Gu Ziyi? Who do you think he has under his account?"

Gong Xiqiu said: "You might as well ask yourself."

If you really ask, you will most likely be beaten up by Gu Ren.

At that time, both the Xin State and the Geng State were secretly studying Gu insects, trying to use this trump card to dominate the northwest and even sweep across the entire continent. They both secretly conducted breeding research and planted "Gu mothers" for people of different ages and physical conditions.

This "Voodoo Mother" is different from the "Voodworm" that causes the disease.

The latter will wake up when exposed to qi and blood, frantically absorb the human body's essence, qi and blood to start laying eggs, which is a failure of the former.

The former grows slowly, but it can be stimulated to the maximum extent and improve its potential, allowing ordinary people to obtain strength comparable to that of mid-to-high-level martial arts warriors. Once the host can no longer provide the essence and blood required by the "Gu Mother", the "Gu Mother" will

It will crazily squeeze the host body and complete the final transformation in the shortest time until it breaks out of the body, and the life of the "host body" will also come to an end.

It's hard to say that Shaochong was infected when he was young.

He was murdered when he was still in his mother's womb.

Zhang He didn't know what he thought of, and his face turned gloomy: "I really didn't know about this matter. If I had known about it, I wouldn't have caused any fatal disaster back then. I'm really not a good person, and I really have the intention of winning over people's hearts by helping the people of Lingzhou.

, but I am definitely not as crazy as Mr. Gong Xilang thinks. I still have some of the most basic ethics of a doctor... Please be careful what you say!"

As an imperial physician who was deeply trusted by the king, he had made great progress in the research on Gu insects, and his future was bright and bright. Outsiders rumored that he was secretly executed, but they did not know the truth behind the matter-the first batch of Gu insects were cultivated at that time.

"Mother Gu", he hoped to use death row prisoners as hosts, but other colleagues advised the king to secretly capture a group of ordinary people.

The leader of the Xin Kingdom was moved by sweet words.

Zhang He couldn't agree.

It is even more impossible to join in the same trend with them.

So he impulsively chose to resign.

This also led to death.

Fortunately, he was well prepared and managed to escape. After that, in order to save his life, he had to move around and hide his name.

After he lived in seclusion in Lingzhou for several years, the situation changed again. The Xin State became more corrupt and corrupt, and the Geng State gradually rose up. Zhang He's thoughts became vivid. He is a person who attaches great importance to fame and fortune, otherwise he would not have been elected three times.

Lost three times.

In the end, I got ahead by entering the medical department.

He is not willing to shrink his head and tail for the rest of his life.

Seeing that he was getting older, he still hadn't waited for the best time to leave the mountain. At this time, he met the filial daughter who was bringing her dying mother. The filial daughter was originally planning to take her old mother to commit suicide, but unexpectedly broke into his secluded little doctor.

Guan. Zhang He learned from his filial daughter that a great plague broke out in Lingzhou.

Lingzhou bureaucrats are trying to avoid doing business by avoiding each other.

Covering this matter tightly.

It wasn't until he couldn't hold it back anymore and was stabbed to the court of King Xin that King Xin's court sent a medical officer from the Medical Department to rescue him.

The results are pleasing to hear and see.

This group of medical officers whose medical skills were getting better and better did not realize that the source of the plague lay in the water source. Not only did they fail to cure the infected people, they also caused most of the disease themselves. In order to stop the spread of the plague, the Lingzhou Prefecture gathered all the infected people into one city.

Let it fend for itself.

Zhang He knew this and his heart beat like a drum.

He felt that his chance had finally come.

Maybe we can turn around through this incident.

So, Zhang He came out of the mountain, not afraid of being dirty, tired, and smelly. He carried a medicine box alone into a city full of patients, and begged the local wealthy family for medicinal materials. The more difficult the opponent made, the more likely they were to take advantage of Zhang He. The reputation among the common people is pushed upward.

Later, he won a fight with the medical officer of the Medical Department.

It took a full month for the city to open.

Zhang He also became famous in one battle.

He admits that he is right. No matter what a person's original intention is, whether it is for the people or for fame, at least the result is the same.

He could endure Gong Xiqiu's accusations and anger, but he could not endure the stigma that did not belong to him. Seeing that Gong Xiqiu did not speak, Shen Tang asked his inner doubts: "Does Mr. Zhang really mean what he said?"

Zhang He pointed to heaven and said: "There is absolutely no lie."

Shen Tang was puzzled.

Could it be that Zhang He really has some integrity?

Wasn't it his fault that Shaochong happened?

"Epidemics caused by poisonous insects in various places..."

"not me!"

Zhang He was vaguely impatient.

"Who could that be?"

Zhang He said: "I don't know."

He quit the project too soon, and who knows what else came up, and—

"Not only Tianhai, Heyin, Shangnan and other places, but also common people under my rule were infected with similar 'epidemics'. Fortunately, they were discovered in time and the news was blocked. If it were really me, why would I bother to do this? Just to remove myself? "

Zhang He's reputation is built on the support of the common people, and it also attracts many talented people. If he loses the support of the people, his foundation will be unstable. Why would he destroy the Great Wall?

Shen Tang frowned and felt worried.

Because her current identity is "the subordinate envoy sent by the Governor of Heyin", Shen Tang's reaction was also misunderstood by Zhang He.

"The messenger doesn't need to worry too much."

Shen Tang: "How do you say this?"

Zhang He said: "It's impossible to spend so much time for nothing. When the time is right, the murderer will reveal his true colors."

Shen Tang: "..."

She doesn't like being passive defensive at all.

But there is no other good solution for now.

Zhang He insisted that he had nothing to do with this matter and it didn't seem like he was cheating. How about - let Gu Chi come and take a look?

"Then I don't know how many years and months it will take..."

Zhang He guessed: "It shouldn't take long."

Let’s not talk about the lethality of the Gu insect itself. Just talking about its additional effect of "epidemic" is not vegetarian. If it is delayed for too long, all the people will die. What are the people behind the scenes planning?

Zhang He had some vague guesses in his heart.

I guess the other party also wants to take the same route.

When the people are in dire straits and are desperate and helpless, they will fall from the sky and give them a glimmer of hope for survival. At that time, the people will be grateful from the bottom of their hearts and regard them as gods.
