Chapter 532 Out of the City (2 in 1)

   It was about the plague, Xuanyuan Ziming didn't dare to take it lightly, and he didn't dare to joke about the safety of the monarch, so he finally did not enter the palace by himself, but asked Xiao Zhuzi, who had been staying in the mansion, to write a letter and send it on his behalf.

   As for why he didn't write it himself, it was naturally because he was afraid that the letter he wrote would bring disease.

   Ji Luo didn't say anything about him being so cautious, and let Mo Yuan burn the clothes he changed and then went home.

   "Plague?" Shen Yijia was surprised: "Mother, you said there was a plague in Fengcheng?"

   She knew what the plague meant, but after all, she hadn't really seen how terrifying it was, but Song Jingchen's expression changed dramatically.

"Yes." Ji Luo nodded with a solemn expression on his face: "This matter hasn't started yet, you and Ah Chen will go out of the city first and find a place where no one is there for two days. If you are not feeling well, then you can Go directly back to Daxia."

  Because of the murder of Xuanyuan Ce, the work of Tianjigu was done, and the people of Tianjigu were Fengcheng who entered Fengcheng mixed with the envoys of Wu State.

   They ran away before the incident, and the envoy of Wu State was directly thrown into prison by Xuanyuan Qi. The relationship between Xuanyuan State and Wu State was completely broken, and there was no possibility of cooperation.

   In fact, Song Jingchen's goal has been achieved. Originally, he planned to take this opportunity to cooperate with Xuanyuan Qi, but now that there is a plague in Fengcheng, Xuanyuan Qi may not be able to take it out.

  I heard from Ji Luo before that the plague was obviously written by Ji Yunxi.

   They were probably just trying to hold Xuanyuanqi from interfering in the affairs of Daxia and Wu.

   Maybe she also wanted to use the plague to trap Song Jingchen in Fengcheng. If she guessed right, Wu Guo would definitely use this time to fight Daxia.

   Ji Luo frowned. In fact, at first she thought that Ji Yunxi was going to inject poison. After all, this is her usual method, and she never thought it would be a plague...

   "Mother doesn't come with us?" Shen Yijia asked.

"Everyone has their own responsibilities. I'm a doctor. Since we meet, I can't just sit back and ignore it." Ji Luo looked at Shen Yijia with apology in his eyes: "Jiajia, there is Achen to take care of you, Mother is very relieved...you go back to Daxia and wait for mother to find you, okay?"

   She thought of the couple in the hospital and the patients who didn't know anything. If she just walked away like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to let go of it for the rest of her life.

   Shen Yijia was stunned for a while, she knew that Ji Luo was right, and it was for her good to let them leave first, but somehow, she just felt uncomfortable.

   She doesn't have so much righteousness in her heart, she just wants the people she cares about to be good, and as for the lives of others, she doesn't care or care...

   But her mother, in order to save the unimportant people, is she going to leave her again?

   They recognized each other, less than two months ago.

   I was filled with an emotion called disappointment.

  's hand was suddenly held, Shen Yijia looked at Song Jingchen and heard him say, "Mother, we're not leaving."

   Ji Luo frowned: "Achen, you..."

   "It's not that Daxia can't do without me, but Jiajia is different. She finally reunited with her mother, does she have the heart to push her out again?"

   He would say this after much deliberation.

Even if he and Jiajia set off now, it will take three months to reach the capital of Daxia, but if the plague can be solved sooner and Xuanyuanqi dispatches troops, it will only take one month from here to the border between Xuanyuan and Wu. time.

"just in case……"

  What if she can't find a cure for the plague? What if you stay and contract the plague?

   She didn't dare to gamble with her daughter's life.

   "There is no contingency, if there is still no solution within half a month, I and Xiangyu will leave immediately." Shen Yijia said dully.

   When her mother sent her away to face danger alone, she had no choice. Now that she can choose, she wants to be by her side.

   Ji Luo looked at the couple and closed his eyes: "Okay."

   Xuanyuance also learned about the plague from Chu Feng. He came out of the backyard and the first thing he said was to let them leave, including Ji Luo.

   Ji Luo glanced at him: "We have already decided to stay, if I can help you Xuanyuan country get through the difficulties, I'll trouble the lord to persuade the monarch to send troops..."

   "I promise you." A sudden voice sounded outside the door.

   Several people looked over at the same time.

  Xuanyuanqi walked in with Eunuch Wu, and bowed his hands to Jiluo solemnly: "As long as Madam is willing to stay and help, I can guarantee that I will not abandon Daxia."

   In fact, the people from Tianji Valley had done so many things in Fengcheng, and Xuanyuan Qi didn't plan to let them go. The difference was that the people who asked the emperor of Wu to hand over Tianji Valley were still directly enemies of Wu.

   "Brother Huang, why did you leave the palace?" Xuanyuan Ce frowned.

  Xuanyuan Ziming came in behind, but he was helpless. He was careful not to enter the palace, but his father was better and ran out by himself.

   Eunuch Wu said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty is worried that the spread of the plague will cause chaos among the people, so..."

   personally went out of the palace to appease the hearts of the people.

   I have to say that Xuanyuan Qi, the monarch, is indeed a Ming monarch who is diligent in government and serving the people.

  If it were Emperor Chong'an, the first thing I would think about was to leave the epidemic area to save my life.

   The next few people discussed how to control the epidemic as much as possible. In fact, there have been cases in previous years. Before coming here, Xuanyuan Qi had already ordered it, but I just wanted to hear if Ji Luo had a better way.

   The only thing he is glad about now is that he found it in time, and the plague has not spread widely.

After listening to his arrangement, Ji Luo hesitated: "It is naturally the safest way to arrange for the patients infected with the plague to be isolated in a place, but we don't know the mode of transmission of the epidemic yet, maybe blood, maybe saliva, It's more likely that it's just breathing, and we don't know where the source of the plague is..."

  Xuanyuanqi's face sank. He planned to block the city gate and prevent anyone from entering or leaving, but if it is true that Ji Luo can be infected by breathing, as time goes by, those who are not infected will probably also...

   "It's better to let the uninfected out first." Song Jingchen suggested.

   Ji Luo nodded: "Establish a safe area outside the city. People who leave the city should observe for two days before leaving if nothing happens. There is also the source of the epidemic. Whether there is an epidemic in other places also needs to be confirmed..."

   As she spoke, she wrote down the anti-epidemic prescriptions and supplies needed for isolation, including how to distinguish the infected from the uninfected.

   Xuanyuan Qi made a decisive decision and ordered Eunuch Wu to make arrangements.

  Song Jingchen saw that he had no intention of leaving, so he frowned and said, "Your Majesty, you also need to leave."

   Xuanyuan Qi refused without thinking: "I can't go..."

   "Your Majesty has a good heart for the people, but compared to staying, you need His Majesty to sit outside the city. Otherwise, who will bring in the medicinal materials and food? If there is an epidemic in other places, who will arrange it?"

   "I can tell other people to do these things." If he leaves at this time, it will definitely make the people who stay panic, so he can't leave.

"Does your majesty believe in people's hearts?" Thinking that the Song family did nothing but was suspected by Emperor Chong'an, Song Jingchen smiled sarcastically: "I don't believe it, maybe I'm taking the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, but has your majesty thought about it? , In case the people arranged by His Majesty have different intentions, waiting for everyone is a dead end."

  Xuanyuanqi was speechless by what he said. Yes, he was trapped in the city. If the other party had any objection, he would directly cut off food and medicine for the city...

  Xuanyuan Ziming suddenly said: "Father, my son, stay here."

   "Young third..."

   "Three brothers, the royal father has always been the most favored son, and the son also wants to share his worries for the father, and I implore the father to give the son a chance." He lifted his robe and knelt down.

   His face no longer had the cynicism of the past.

   Xuanyuan Qi was stunned for a moment, and for the first time discovered that this son had grown up.

   In fact, the reason why he treats him the best is because the eldest and the second child are both born of daughters from aristocratic families.

   They had half the blood of the noble family on them. He couldn't forget what the noble family did to their Xuanyuan family, and he didn't trust them.

   Therefore, Xuanyuan Ziming is not only his favorite son, but also his desired heir to the throne.

   But unfortunately, this son has never been motivated, and always likes to run outside. Now that I think about it, it’s not that he is not motivated, he just doesn’t want this throne…

   Seemed to see what he was thinking, Xuanyuan Ziming smiled and said: "My father is worried, my son knows that my son promises my father, if my son can walk out of Fengcheng alive, in the future, my son will listen to my father."

   Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyes to the sky and smiled: "Stinky boy, don't forget what you said."

  Xuanyuan Ziming was serious, but he grinned and said, "My son doesn't dare."

   "Humph." Xuanyuance snorted coldly, "Have you forgotten about this king?"

   Xuanyuan Qi knew what he was going to say, and said solemnly, "You must go out of the city..."

   "It doesn't matter what you said, my wife and daughter are here, and I won't go anywhere, so just die."

   Ji Luo rolled his eyes: "Your wife is not here."

   Shen Yijia also rolled her eyes: "I don't have your daughter either."

  Xuanyuan Policy:  …

   It’s true that it hurts, but it’s also true that you don’t plan to leave.

   Ji Luo moved his fingers, Xuanyuan Ce seemed to be aware, took a step back and said, "Even if you send me out today, I can come back by myself tomorrow."

  Jiro:  …

   An hour later, the city gate was already full of people.

In front of the crowd, in addition to the veils soaked in concoction on their faces, the soldiers in full armor also set up a long table. The imperial physician and the doctor sat there ready to examine everyone who passed by. In addition, ten others were placed at the gate of the city. Several large wooden barrels are filled with the anti-epidemic medicine prescribed by Ji Luo, and each person needs to drink a bowl before leaving.

  Everything is ready, but such a big battle, coupled with the blockade of the city gate, has completely panicked the people, and seems to be vaguely aware of something. They not only refused to cooperate, but even clashed with the soldiers.

   "Come one by one, one by one, don't crowd." The soldier said loudly.

   "Why don't you let us out, we didn't break the law, let us out."

   "Yes, we're going out, get out of the way."

"Step aside."

  …

   Everyone roared, and it was at this moment that Xuanyuan Qi and his party in bright yellow robes appeared above the tower, and he shouted loudly: "Everyone."

  Everyone looked over and saw the clothes on his body. Someone shouted, "Your Majesty, it's your Majesty's coming down."

   In response, everyone knelt down and kowtowed to the people above the tower: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live—"

   "Your Majesty, you have to uphold justice for us." Someone mustered up the courage and said loudly.

"Everyone." Xuanyuan Qi looked at them calmly: "I think everyone has found out that many people in the city have suffered from strange diseases recently. To tell the truth, this disease is really a plague. Make sure that the plague doesn't spread to other places. But don't worry, the court will never give up on anyone. After the city is closed, I will arrange for people to deliver food and medicinal materials, and the imperial physicians and doctors will stay in the city to diagnose and treat everyone..."

"That's nice." Some people shouted, facing the fear of death, even if the other party was the monarch, they were not so afraid: "When you leave the city and the city gate is closed, who will care about our lives and say what we don't want to say? The spread of the plague is just an excuse, the lives of the dignitaries are life, isn't it ours?"

   As soon as these words came out, everyone in the crowd got excited and stood up and rushed outside.

   "I won't leave." Xuanyuan Ziming said, he has been in the market all year round, and there are not a few people who know him. They all know that he is the prince who is the most favored by the monarch and who is the least like a prince.

   He continued: "Not only will I not leave, King Jing'an will not leave either..."

   Both are people the monarch cares about, and the people quieted down when they heard the words.

"Like all of you, I am also afraid and want to leave, but the royal father told me that since my surname is Xuanyuan, I must take this responsibility, and at the same time I want to assure everyone that His Majesty will never give up on everyone. "

   Xuanyuan Qi said in a deep voice, "I take Xuanyuan's family as a security, and I will never give up any common people who should not give up."

   Everyone was stunned for a moment, then knelt down again: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

"Now, I urge everyone to line up and let your relatives, friends, and those who are not sick leave, and the rest of you, wait patiently in the city, the doctor will definitely find a way to cure the plague, and I will always stay outside, We will never let you run out of medicine and food.”

   Xuanyuanqi's words were like a tranquilizer, finally calming everyone's hearts. As long as His Majesty doesn't give up on them, they still have hope.

   After a short while, the crowd spontaneously organized itself, taking the household as a unit, according to the name of the household registration, one by one, went forward to accept the examination of the doctor, and then went to the gate of the city to get a bowl of medicinal soup and left.

   Xuanyuan Qi has already sent a letter out, and the city defense army has set up a safe area a hundred miles away, and these people will be arranged to live in as soon as they go out.

   Of course, not everyone cooperated. Some sick people wanted to fish in troubled waters. The doctor checked them out and the soldiers pushed them back.

   There are also some who are obviously not sick, but did not go forward for examination because their relatives were diagnosed. They are equivalent to giving up the opportunity to go out of the city.

   After checking in this way, I was busy until late at night, and finally no one was in line. Many lanterns were lit at the gate of the city, which illuminated the surroundings as bright as day.

   Ji Luo sat at the back and was the last check level.

   Watching the last person leave, she frowned.

   Shen Yijia asked: "Mother, what's wrong?"

   Song Jingchen accompanied Xuanyuan Ziming and led people to sprinkle lime water everywhere and burn wormwood. She was not allowed to follow, and she stayed by Ji Luo's side.

Ji Luo raised his eyes and looked at the sick crowd on the other side. At a glance, he saw the couple he had seen in the hospital before. The man held the woman in his arms and looked at the direction of the city gate with red eyes. It can be seen that they have children, and they want to send the children away.

   She shook her head and smiled: "Mother will definitely save them."

   Shen Yijia was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "I believe in mother."

  The sound of hooves came.

  The mother and daughter looked over. The first one was Xuanyuan Qi's carriage, followed by the Queen Mother Zhou, followed by the concubines of the harem.

   Behind them, there are two people from the Prince's Palace and the ministers in the court.

   (How about keeping Xuanyuan Ye?)
