Chapter 153: Foolishness
"Eh, you said Master Mu, what the hell is going on, if only you knew how to get infected, then it would be good to curb it, but we have been here for seven or eight days, and there are more and more people who are seeing this strange symptom."
Seeing that Mu Jiu had been pondering there for a while, his expression seemed to see some doorway, so he came to him and asked.
Mu Jiu twisted his eyebrows and shook his head slowly when he heard this.
"If there is no way to spread the disease, and no source of the plague can be found, the whole city will suffer."
At this moment, the night is already very dark, and the husband has only knocked on the third watch.
After Mu Jiu finished reading those people, he asked Mo Zhu to take all the files on the plague records in these days.
When Mu Jiu was still studying medicine, it was common to read at night.
At this moment, in the room of Luo Mo, she was holding two candles that were not particularly bright, and she was looking through the archives there with her spirit.
The ugly hour is over, and the candles in the room are still on.
There was only an occasional yawn, but when she looked at the ink lying on the bed and was almost breathless, she was refreshed.
Mo Zhu and Mo Shu stood outside and looked at Mu Jiu's figure reflected in the window.
"You say, Niangniang forgot to sleep and eat for such a waste of the Imperial Doctor, do we want to tell the master about this matter?"
Mo Shu held the saber and made a cold blow: "I can't say it." ”
"Yes, the emperor's dragon nature is very big, and if he says it, the emperor will inevitably complain about his mother again."
"Hmm. I'm going to prepare some food for my mother to bring in, and it's about to dawn. ”
Mo Zhu came in with porridge and some smoke side dishes, and knocked on Mu Jiu's door.
At this time, Mu Jiu had already read the files twice, and she had a little bit of an eyebrow in her heart.
"Put it there. By the way, call the county lord Chengzhang in this city, and the official has something to ask him. ”
"My lord, Moshu went early in the morning, and said that you want to ask questions, so let that Lord come later."
Mu Jiu glanced at him unexpectedly, and then sat down on the edge of the table to eat.
"You're fast."
Mu Jiu was not in the mood to use the meal, but he also knew that people were iron and rice were steel, so he used all the meals he served.
"My lord, you can rest for a while, Master Zhang is here, I'll wake you up again, how about it?"
Mo Zhu actually admired Mu Jiu a little.
Seeing that Mu Jiu's own injuries had not been treated, although the injuries on the soles of his feet were healed, they were not good.
This time I will look at these files without sleep, if this lady is tired, the emperor will not have to chop them alive.
Mu Jiu was indeed tired, and when he heard Mo Zhu's words, he lay on the table and fell asleep for a while.
But before he slept for a while, Mo Shu came in with messy steps: "My lord, it's not good, something happened." ”
"What's wrong? Didn't you go and find Master Zhang? ”
"Yes, we are already on the way here, but someone came to report that those who did not have the plague are making a fuss now, and even those officers and soldiers can't suppress them, so Lord Zhang hurriedly went first."
Elder Mu Jiu had already been woken up, and when he heard this, he immediately stood up.
Now there are not many officers and soldiers in this city, and if there is really a disturbance, this civil rebellion is not a joke.
She asked as she burst out the door.
"Why did you make a fuss?"
Mo Shu's face was serious: "The day before we came, there was a rumor that the emperor didn't care about the people in this town, so he let it go."
The county sealed the city and told them to wait for death in it. ”
"Foolish !!"
Mu Jiu only gritted his teeth and said these four words, and walked quickly to the place where there was trouble.
I didn't even have any scruples about the dull pain in my foot, which had not yet fully recovered.
Mu Jiu, who was heading to the altar of trouble at this moment, didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
But those people can't blame them for thinking that way.
After all, the people around him went one after another, and he was counting on a few imperial doctors in the palace to curb the plague.
But the plague will only grow in scope.
The county had no choice but to seal the city and lock them in one place for easy management.
Even the meals are distributed uniformly, and this is how they lose their freedom, as if the taste of being in captivity completely panics them.
Rumors spread.
But most of these rumors are slanderous to the emperor in the palace.
The emperor doesn't care about the life or death of the people of a city, and it is immoral, and this matter is in the court, and it is strange if there is no accident.
When Mu Jiu arrived, there was already a mess inside those altars, and those people were not even afraid of the blades of officers and soldiers, and they broke free and wanted to go out.
"My lord, this is a bit dangerous, don't come any closer."
Mu Jiu did not approach, but instead climbed the watchtower on the side, and quietly watched the farce below for a long time.
"Moshu, go and pick out the man on the far left with a scar on his face and wearing blue clothes, and the man in navy blue clothes next to him, there is definitely something wrong with the two of them."
Although Moshu didn't know why Mu Jiu wanted to let him take these two people out, he still went obediently.
"Mozhu, you go and ask the county Cheng, are these two people from the border city? I saw that the facial features of those two people were not like the people here, but more like Xiangxi people. ”
"Xiangxi?"
"Oh, it's Miao Jiang."
As soon as he said this, Mozhu understood, but he didn't notice the facial features of these two people, and when he looked at it, he found that although the two people were wearing Han clothes, their facial features were more three-dimensional, and their faces were indeed close to Miao Jiang.
"Your Excellency, you have such good eyesight!!"
This sentence Mo Zhu sincerely admired.
But soon he frowned.
"But my lord, isn't Miao Jiang generally a good Gu? It's not going to ....."
"Yes, that's it. mixed with the Miao Jiang people, it must have been poisoned. ”
After closing his words, Mu Jiu glanced at the two people below who were carried alone in front of the county Cheng.
"Go and tell the county that the official will be locked up in a cell on the grounds that these two people are taking the lead in making trouble, and the official will personally interrogate him later."
After saying this, Mu Jiu went down and went back to the Bin Ruyun Restaurant, but he never showed up.
After all, it is not appropriate for too many people to know about her coming to the border city.
Mu Jiu was guarding the ink, leaning on the edge of the bed with his eyes closed and pretending to sleep, replaying these things about the plague in his mind.
Just as Mu Jiu was thinking about everything before and after, a short and fat man in an official uniform stumbled in.
Because I was in too much of a hurry, I tripped over the high threshold and splashed dust on the ground.
The official hat rolled to Mu Jiu's feet with a grunt.
"Weichen Biancheng County Cheng Zhangtai has seen Master Mu."
That chapter is very fat, a pair of slender eyes are so small, this time there is a flattering smile on his face, and the fat is squeezed, and even the eyes are gone.
Jiu glared at him angrily, looking at this and that, he didn't scavenge the people's fat and people's cream.
At this moment, he fell, and when he saw that the Mu man next to the bed was glaring at him with some annoyance, he hurriedly crawled to Mu Jiu's feet, saluted and reported himself to the official name.
Mu Jiu took a deep breath and put down Luo Mo's hand.
Then he rested and looked at him flawlessly.
"You have a fat head and big ears, and you usually do a lot of scavenging people's fat and ointment, right?"
The adults in this chapter thought that this Lord Mu was going to ask about the plague as soon as he opened his mouth, but when he heard Mu Jiu's question, he immediately became angry.
"Weichen, Weichen doesn't have it, my lord Mingjian."
"Hmph, this thing will naturally be seen by the emperor, and the official will ask you, yesterday the official checked the file and found that there was already a case in the middle of last month, and three people had died. Why did you wait until the matter was too big to report to the court? ”
Master Zhang's heart was on hold, and his face immediately became bitter, and tears and snot flowed together.
"My lord, it's really wronged, those people also waited for someone to die before they told me, otherwise I don't know that something happened in the city under my jurisdiction, I know that I was negligent and guilty, but my lord, you can't doubt Weichen's heart, Weichen really hopes that they can be healed."
Mu Jiu squinted, even more annoyed and angry.
"Where did you just ignore this, there are two Miao Jiang people in the place under your jurisdiction, and they have bad intentions, you don't know this. You're too comfortable in this county, aren't you? ”
Hearing this, he didn't even have the strength to maintain a kneeling position.
lost his spirit and sat on the side, as if he had been struck by thunder.
"Nearly half of the city has died, I know that I have done a dereliction of duty in this county, and the emperor wants to kill or kill me, but my lord, you must save the remaining people."
This little fat man has not completely extinguished his conscience, and Mu Jiu heard his last sincere words, and the anger in his heart became a little less.
"How to deal with your emperor's affairs, the official has no right to ask, but you have to help the official now."
Hearing that this adult did not pursue it, the little eyes of this county Cheng widened with all his might, and he nodded again and again.
"My lord, you said, Weichen has no ability, but the affairs of the border city, as long as you say it, Weichen will help you do it."
"Didn't those people make trouble today? They were not allowed to eat, nor at noon nor at night, so that they would be hungry. ”
"Huh?"
The little fat man is staggered.
"My lord, I almost couldn't end the scene this morning, I don't give you food, they can't rob this bin Ruyun."
"That's what you're capable of. Whether your black gauze hat can be worn steadily depends on this game. ”
Mu Jiu lightly pushed the words and threw the pot on his head.
What a wonderful thing it is to be a county leader.
Seeing that he was still hesitating, Mo Zhu coolly helped.
"We're here with a gold medal, and we have the right to cut first and then play."
Although the weather was hot, a cold sweat appeared on the fat man's face, and when he heard Mozhu's cool words, he hurriedly gritted his teeth and responded to this matter.
"Yes, my lord, Wechen promises to do this well."
"Well, this official looked at the file last night, and every time he eats a meal, he can get more people with the plague, hasn't Master Zhang paid attention to it?"
The little fat man's face was surprised and frightened, cold sweat broke out on his body, and he was even trembling with fright.
"What do you mean, sir? You won't say that we have problems with the food we use, right? 2k reading network
