Chapter 231: Pimping

Fortunately, Xiao Jingchen arranged for people to clear the snow on the road the day before, and the people they sent out yesterday should be back today.

The yamen was also much more organized than before, and all the bodies were transferred to a unified place for cremation.

Lord Wang was stunned when he saw Su Qing coming, and hurriedly greeted him: "Princess, such a big snowstorm, you still go to stay in the house......"

"What about the prince?" Su Qing didn't see Xiao Jingchen's figure in the yamen, he wouldn't go out in such a big snowstorm, right?

"The team sent out yesterday encountered some trouble on the way back, and the prince personally took someone to see it. "Lord Wang looks a little more energetic than yesterday.

Probably someone with more ideas than him, and the pressure on him is not so great.

"Adult, save my child, he has had a high fever all night, and if he doesn't let him see the doctor, he will be gone......"

Suddenly, a woman rushed in with a child in her arms, her face flushed with cold, and she even had a few chilblains.

He only wore a thin jacket, and the child in his arms was tightly wrapped, but the child's face was a little abnormal.

"Another one. Lord Wang was not surprised, so he could only sigh helplessly.

"Let me see. Su Qing stepped forward, and the woman holding the child noticed the beautiful woman in front of her.

She was slender and beautiful, and her eyes were soothed for a moment when she looked at her.

She hurriedly put the child on the table beside her: "This lady, you can help me take a look, as long as I can cure my child, I am willing to treat you as a cow and a horse......"

"This is the princess of the war king, you must not be rude. Lord Wang frowned and stepped forward, but Su Qing waved his hand at him: "Don't worry about these false courtesies, treat the child first." ”

"Alas......" Lord Wang sighed on the side: "There have been many such cases in the past few days, the temperature is low and the firewood is not enough to burn, and many people have frozen to death before......"

Winter can be a test for the elderly and children, especially in such extreme circumstances.

Su Qing didn't speak, stepped forward and checked the child's eyes and tongue, and finally reached out to check the pulse.

"Lord Wang, you just said that there have been many such cases in the past few days, are they all old people and children? Where are they all? What is the situation now?"

Su Qing furrowed her brows, since she came here to help somewhere, she naturally had to take a hand, and she couldn't just watch it like this.

"I told them to stay at home, and there was nothing else I could do...... Ahem. Lord Wang coughed twice as he spoke, and he himself was a little difficult to protect.

"This is a disease of cold poison, Lord Wang had better gather all those symptomatic patients, and I will treat them. ”

"What is this?" The woman next to her looked panicked, looked at Su Qing and then at Lord Wang, and cried with a sad face: "Then can my child still be saved?"

"Of course there is, but you have to trust him to us. ”

The wind howled outside, and soon another layer of snow fell on the ground, and the carriage began to slip and could not move.

"Lord Wang, several horses are frozen, why don't I go back and call some people?" Xiao Jue's hands were already frozen unconscious.

Xiao Jingchen bent down and walked out of the carriage, in this kind of place, the horse is the last means of transportation, but it can't withstand such high-intensity work.

"You send a few men to bring the horses back, and then dismantle the wagon. Xiao Jingchen frowned and glanced not far away.

Xiao Jue thought that he had misheard, "Why did you have to dismantle the good carriage? It's better to put it here first, and then bring it back in a few days." ”

"Break it down into planks, and it will come in handy later. ”

Even Xiao Jingchen, who has internal strength to protect his body, feels cold to the bones, he also added a layer of coat today, and when Xiao refused to dismantle the carriage, he found some hemp ropes scattered on the ground around, so he also tied them up and took them with him.

As Xiao Jingchen said, many of the horses were no longer able to walk when they received the teams sent out yesterday.

After finding some people and food in the surrounding towns, Xiao Jue realized the usefulness of those planks.

One can go back on his own, but the grain is piled up and takes up a lot of space, and it is scattered on the planks, and there is snow on the ground, and it is saved a lot of effort by putting hemp rope on it.

Xiao Jingchen was not idle, dragging the victims and food back to the city, it was almost dark, but he saw many people in the city coming out and walking.

When I returned to the yamen, I found that it was busier here, and as soon as I entered the door, I saw Su Qing walking back and forth in the courtyard, her face was slightly red, and she didn't know if she was cold or tired.

"Lord Wang, you are back, I asked them to prepare dinner......" Lord Wang saw Xiao Jingchen hurriedly coming over.

Seeing him looking at Su Qing again, he explained: "The princess came over early in the morning, and there have been many sick people in recent days, and the princess said that she could cure them, so she gathered them in one place. ”

"Lord, I have something to tell you. Su Qing also saw Xiao Jingchen, handed the things in his hand to Qingshuang and turned around and walked over.

Seeing Su Qing coming, Lord Wang retreated very familiarly, and went to other things.

"These people are not ordinary sick. As soon as Su Qing spoke, Xiao Jingchen's eyes darkened a little.

It is normal for people's bodies to be unable to bear to be sick in low temperature weather, but they are all coughs and fevers, but as soon as Su Qing said this, Xiao Jingchen knew that the situation was not ordinary.

Seeing that her cheeks were red and her lips were a little chapped, she must have been busy for a day, so she suppressed the curiosity in her heart: "Go into the house and say." ”

Because these patients gathered together in the yamen and burned a few more braziers, it warmed up a lot.

"We caught a few Mobei people last night, they looked like they were here to steal food, but it was a little too late to come at this time. ”

The disaster has lasted for more than ten days, and the people in the city have little food to store, so it is unreasonable to go to great lengths to steal food at this time.

"Does the prince suspect that they are attacking the west?" Su Qing also frowned slightly, the discovery of the two of them might be able to get together just in one place.

"It's just that I haven't noticed anything else wrong yet, and if it's just for food, they don't have to make trouble right under my nose. ”

Xiao Jingchen sat down and breathed a sigh of relief, after a day of cold wind outside, the pores on his body opened up and became a little itchy when he arrived in a warm room.

Su Qing felt the same way, she rolled up her sleeves to reveal a white arm.

"I found out that someone took the opportunity to poison them. ”

"Where?" poisoned in such an environment, Xiao Jingchen grimaced.

"A sick child came over today, and Lord Wang said that there have been many such cases in the city, and they are all old people and children. ”

"The more this poison is kept in cold conditions, the longer it lasts, and now there is no shortage of food and water in the city, and I suspect that this poison is in the water. ”

"The elderly and children have poor resistance in winter, and the toxicity will be reduced when the water is heated, but if the elderly and children drink too much, they will inevitably be poisoned. ”
