Chapter 172: Urgent Report from the West
In the evening, there was no sun, just a little stuffy. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
People walked listlessly through the middle of the street, shopping slowly, unable to lift their spirits.
"Drive! Drive! Urgent! Hurry up! Let's come! "Far from the city gates, a man on horseback galloped with billowing dust.
He held a token in his hand, reflecting a blue glow. There is also a small flag underneath the token, which is the pattern of the crape myrtle, the national flower of the Cloud Country.
The soldiers guarding the city gate were transferred from the Imperial Guards, and their eyes were very good, and they could read the words on the token clearly, which was an emergency exercise order.
When there is an emergency, it is specially made to pass the fast level, and it will glow at a long distance, fluoresce at night, and reflect colored light during the day.
This light is also based on evidence, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, the further back, the more serious.
"Get out of the way!" The Imperial Forester hurriedly took out a whistle and blew it vigorously.
At the same time, two Royal Foresters quickly ran towards the direction of the palace, opening the way in front, "All the vendors let go, and they will not be responsible for any accidents!" We are not responsible for any accidents! ”
Their voices traveled far away, and soon the street outside the city was cleared.
And the urgent messenger was faster, and had just cleared the streets, and his horse had already crossed the outer city to the boundaries of the inner city.
Fortunately, the reaction was fast, and no one was injured, but the stalls were cleaned up too quickly and there was some chaos, but it was fine.
And at this time, they also had no desire to sell and buy things, and they all became extremely curious about the urgent report.
The buyers and the sellers got together and muttered and discussed.
The guards guarding the gate looked at the dust on the ground and were a little worried.
The sign was a blue glow, just one level below purple.
Purple represents a major event such as a rebellion, and blue represents a person or thing that subverts the national situation.
Ay!
The emperor here has not received the news, but Yuan Shanjia has already received specific news.
The epidemic in the west has worsened! It has spread to three townships.
Thousands of people have died!
Thousands! That's hundreds of villages! More than a dozen township people!
Yuan Shanjia's expression was solemn, the spread of this epidemic was really a little weird.
Not a few villages next to each other, but villages far apart.
By the time Yun Niang and the others found out, it was too late. This also caused Yun Niang to return halfway and did not come to Yundu as she instructed.
Attached to the news is a letter from Yun Niang.
The general content is: Miss, there must be a lot of people around you watching, and it is actually not very useful whether she is there or not. But there was no one else around those poor people, and if she had reached out, those people would have survived.
In addition, Yun Niang also learned the news of Yuan Tian's rebellion.
Of course, Yun Niang didn't believe it, but Yun Niang felt that she had to do something to help her, and Yun Niang also said that she might only become a drag on her when she came to Yundu, which was not what she wanted!
After reading the letter, Yuan Shanjia was silent for a long time before he instructed Lianying: "Let people do their best to assist Yun Niang!" ”
Yun Niang has been with her since she was a child, and she is also her relative, she doesn't want to lose it by accident.
The emperor quickly got the news, and within half an hour, the sun had just set, and someone came to invite Yuan Tian to go to the palace to meet the emperor.
Yuan Shanjia looked at the father-in-law's somewhat strange face, and quietly stuffed a red envelope, "General Yuan is old, he can't toss more, I hope you will take care of it." ”
Yuan Tian couldn't cry or laugh, he was an old man in the eyes of his daughter?
But the daughter's intimacy is still useful.
The eunuch seemed a little strange, his expression was a little indifferent, and he seemed to be a little hesitant, but in the end he still accepted the red envelope and said slightly: "In the evening, news came from the west, and the emperor asked the slave maid to come and pick up the general. ”
Yuan Tian twisted his eyebrows, his heart tightened, and there was news from the west? This does not bode well.
He didn't get any important news at all.
Yuan Shanjia raised his eyebrows, and finally handed the information he got to Yuan Tian.
Yuan Tian took it, didn't look at it on the spot, got into the car, and then opened it to see.
It's amazing to see this, his beard is upturned, and the epidemic has expanded, how many days has it been?
No, more than half a month has passed when the previous news came. But this time the news was four days ago.
In other words, it only took four days for the horseback rider to reach the clouds!
Yuan Tian took a deep breath, what did he have to be angry about, and it was not him who benefited in the end after the anger!
Yuan Tian went all night as soon as he went, and when he came back, he brought back grain, grass and medicinal herbs.
Yuan Shanjia waited all night, didn't sleep well, and came out as soon as he heard the movement outside.
There were four carts of grain and three carts of medicinal herbs dragged back by Yuan Tian.
They are all full, and there are seals on them.
"Commander Dong, you and the deputy commander will put things together and come to my tent, I have important matters to discuss." Yuan Tian commanded, outsiders couldn't see his face, but Yuan Shanjia felt that he was very worried.
The people in the camp saw that Yuan Tian had brought back so many things after going out, and while they felt that they could live well, they were so moved that they wanted to cry.
The general deserves to be a general, and in such a difficult situation, he also went to find them food, grass and medicinal materials.
Even if they heard that it was a gift from the emperor later, they also felt that if it wasn't for General Yuan, how could the emperor send these things, and the emperor didn't send a penny of food before.
They know it clearly!
Of course, the reason why they knew so clearly was because Yuan Shanjia deliberately let people tell them.
Since Daddy has done so many things, he should let people know!
The food and medicinal herbs are all packed, and it is very convenient to put them away, so they can be moved to the place and put them away.
Therefore, the movements of the two were very fast, and when Yuan Tian drank a cup of tea, it was almost over there.
Dong Changle and Shi Xi came in, their faces changed from their previous sadness, and they were a little happy.
The imperial physician's batch of medicinal herbs can probably support the person who has been cured of the epidemic.
Although so many imperial doctors from the Tai Hospital came, they did not do anything useful.
But their medical skills are still there. In the case of knowing the condition, knowing the treatment, and knowing the treatment prescription, if they can't judge, then their imperial doctor is also in vain.
Yuan Shanjia was originally sitting with Yuan Tian, she supported her head with one hand, she had a headache, she slept too late last night, and she didn't sleep well, which made her very uncomfortable.
But now she can't sleep, just close her eyes and recuperate.
Hearing the movement at the door, she lazily opened her eyes and looked around, ready to go out and wait.
"Chang Le, you don't have to go out." Yuan Tian opened his mouth to stop.
Yuan Shanjia looked at him suspiciously, why is it so rare today, he didn't let her retreat when discussing things, it seemed that he wanted her to follow and listen.
Yuan Shanjia wiped his eyes, and secretly thought to himself that it was not because of the news she gave him yesterday that he didn't let her out.
Speaking of which, just now my father has not asked her where she came from, and now I think about it a little weak.
After all, they have hidden a lot, and there are still some things that deceive them.
