Chapter 160: Jurong is a serious disaster

Liu Yan listened to what Chu Shenxia said that day, and was about to go to see if Liu Wenyin's child had a cinnabar mole on his elbow, but he was urgently summoned into the palace by the emperor. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Nanshu Jurong earthquake on the same day, several nearby villages seriously collapsed, more than 2,000 people died at the same time, the disaster was serious, the people's livelihood was boiling, the emperor learned the news, immediately sent His Royal Highness the crown prince Liu Yan to Nanshu in person, to deal with the disaster.

Liu Yan naturally didn't dare to slack off at all, and rushed to Nanshu with money, food and troops. In fact, the earthquake in Nanshu was not very serious, but the villages here were too poor and the houses were too simple, so after the earthquake, all the houses in this area collapsed.

Jurong and Nanshu are not far away, and the situation is similar, they are both relatively poor and backward villages, so there will be such serious consequences.

In fact, on the day of the earthquake, Jiankang, which is not far from Nanshu, also felt the tremor, and even many tiles in people's homes shook, but there was nothing big about it.

Because the earthquake was at night, some people didn't notice it, and when they were dug up, they had been crushed to death, Liu Yan watched one after another corpses dug up from the rubble and carried aside, feeling a little uncomfortable.

ordered people to build a shed to give porridge, and personally distributed the food and coffin money to every surviving household, Liu Yan was so busy that he forgot to eat, that is, he forgot to drink a sip of water.

"Your Highness, the person sent to Jurong reported that the local people suddenly developed a strange disease, which seems to be contagious, and everyone is very afraid." When Lu Zhi said this, it was already dark.

Liu Yan licked his dry lips, looked in the direction of Jurong and said, "Aren't there several doctors going?" What do they say? ”

"They ......" Lu Zhi shook his head, looking very helpless.

"These people can speak good things on weekdays, but such an important juncture is ...... You go to Jiankang and invite Miss Banrong to come, be sure to ask her to bring more doctors. After Liu Yan finished speaking, he took the sword on the table casually and walked forward.

Lu Zhi hurriedly followed him and asked urgently, "Where is Your Highness going?" ”

"Naturally, I want to go to Jurong to have a look, you don't have to worry about me, go to Jiankang overnight. Tomorrow morning, if you can't see half of it, I'll just ask you. Liu Yan hurriedly walked and pointed at a few soldiers on the side. said, "You guys, follow me to Jurong." ”

Lu Zhi saw that he was about to go up with the horse on the side, so he hurriedly grabbed the reins and said worriedly: "Your Highness! I've heard that diseases are contagious. You can't go! ”

"What's there to go, I'm an iron-boned man, what are you afraid of? Let go! Liu Yan snatched the reins from Lu Zhi's hand, jumped on the back of the horse beautifully, and led everyone to run in the direction of Jurong.

Two hours later, Liu Yan arrived in Jurong, none of the soldiers and people here had fallen asleep, Pei Shudong saw Liu Yan, hurriedly trotted to him, stretched out his arms and said, "Your Highness can't go any further." The people's illness is too scary, and it is very likely to be contagious, for the safety of His Highness, it is better not to go further. ”

Liu Yan pushed his arm away and said with some amusement: "You can go, can't I go?" It's just a glance, what are you anxious about? ”

Pei Shudong had nothing to say at the moment, so he had to follow behind him, and when Liu Yan approached, he found that these people had red envelopes all over their bodies. They seem very uncomfortable, and they always scratch with their hands, even when they are bleeding. It was as if the itching sensation came from the bones.

One of the people who was lying down was really itchy and uncomfortable, and suddenly he started to go crazy, waving his bloody hands around, and Liu Yan was not fast enough to retreat because he was close. He grabbed one in the arm.

When the soldiers on the side saw this scene, they couldn't help but scream, especially Pei Shudong, who was about to cut off that person's hands when he came up, but was stopped by Liu Yan.

"Fortunately, my clothes are thick enough, he didn't hurt me, I see these people, they are all very uncomfortable, the wound must be scratched and broken, it must be bad, why don't you tie their hands?" Liu Yan took the white cloth handed over by a soldier and symbolically wiped it twice on his sleeve.

Pei Shudong looked around, and finally paused in front of the crazy person in front of him, "We thought about it, but these people are too difficult to control, and the process of binding is very easy to hurt the soldiers, so we didn't ......"

"Even these sick people can't stop it, how can they lead troops into battle in the future?" Liu Yan coldly swept over the few soldiers in front of him, looked at them and lowered their heads, and said, "I'm coming!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and the soldiers naturally did not dare to let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince take risks, and they all knelt down, but all they got was a rebuke from Liu Yan.

In the end, it was better to do it in person, and those soldiers saw that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was fearless, and they became bolder, and rushed up one by one to tie up the hands of those people.

I don't know what's going on, as if it's really contagious, more and more people have red envelopes, at first just a little, but in less than a moment, it has grown all over the body in an instant, which makes everyone a little surprised.

I don't know who said "this is another kind of smallpox", like a bomb, stirring up countless panics in the crowd.

The ugly moment was originally the moment when people were asleep, but Jurong was like a pot of porridge, the chaos was so bad that the people fled in a hurry, and there were people who didn't see the night road, fell down the stream and died.

Liu Yan had no choice but to gather the soldiers and use force to control these panicked people, sleepy and attacking, but no one dared to sleep, as soon as he did it, you stared at me, I stared at you until dawn.

Lu Zhi did not fail in his mission, and rushed to Jurong at dawn with Banrong, and the doctors in the barracks had already seen Banrong's medical skills, so they hurriedly greeted him and said, "Doctor Sun, look at what's wrong?" We looked like smallpox. ”

The people on the side were a little surprised to see that these doctors trusted the woman in front of them so much, but they still pricked up their ears to listen to her answer.

Banrong didn't answer directly, but walked into the injured area on the side, and after carefully examining the wounds on their bodies, he clapped his hands and smiled: "It's okay, this disease is not contagious, eat some herbs, if it's fast, it will be fine tomorrow, very rarely, these red envelopes will not exceed three days at most, if they don't subside after more than three days, I can't help it." ”

In what seemed to be such a serious illness to the people, but it was so easy in the air, the people couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, and they talked about it one after another.

"Is this girl okay? Looking so young, I haven't seen a few patients. ”

"That's right, everyone is like this, how can she say the words okay?"

The doctors were not as skeptical as the common people, but asked respectfully: "Doctor Sun, what kind of disease is this, so many people are sick at the same time, if it is not infectious, how did they get it?" ”

Banrong lowered his head to pick herbs, and replied: "It should have been bitten by a diseased bug, or ate something that shouldn't be eaten, and suddenly a wheal." ”

The doctors all made a sudden realization, and hurriedly followed her to pound the herbs, asking this and that, and talking non-stop.

Liu Yan was relieved to know that it was not infectious, but he was still a little uneasy in his heart, whether the insects or food that he said would cause people to get sick again.

"Your Highness, I have something to say to you." An hour later, Banrong suddenly ran in front of Liu Yan, his face was a little unsightly.

Liu Yan subconsciously looked at the injured people, and saw that nothing had happened, so he asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"Didn't I say that it might have been caused by eating?" Banrong looked at Liu Yan cautiously, saw Liu Yan nodded, and said softly, "I think there is a problem with the rice used for disaster relief, so I just went to see it, there are some insects in the rice, and those insects may be the reason for inducing the people to get wheals." ”

"Isn't it normal for there to be occasional rice worms in the rice? Ordinary people often have rice worms in their homes, and it's okay to eat them, so why do these people get sick? Liu Yan looked at her puzzled.

Banrong nodded and explained: "It's true that there are rice worms in the rice, but the insects I'm talking about are not rice worms, they were originally insects that grew on the mountains, but they were mixed in the rice pile to act as rice worms. This insect is poisonous, and when ordinary people bite it, their whole body will be extremely itchy, and they will be covered with red envelopes, just like these villagers. ”

Before Liu Yan could finish listening, there was spark in his eyes, and he patted the table angrily and said, "Who is so vicious that he would do such a thing." ”

On second thought, why did this person put worms in the rice bag? Is it just to hurt these people? These people should have no hatred for him, right? In this case, there is only one possibility.

This man is coming for himself.

Thinking of this section, Liu Yan not only shivered all over his body, but the fatigue of a sleepless night suddenly disappeared, he clenched his fists hatefully, and secretly thought in his heart, the struggle for power is at the cost of the lives of the people, but isn't the person who sits on the throne of the king for the well-being of the people?

Now he is so despicable and harmful, and when he takes the throne in the future, will there be a day of peace in this world?

"Your Highness? Your Highness! Banrong saw that his face was pale, and his spirit was not very good, so he couldn't help but call a few times, and when he came back to his senses, he said, "I heard from the soldiers that His Highness didn't get a drop of water yesterday, and he did it himself, and he didn't even have time to sleep for a while." His Royal Highness's face is extremely bad at the moment, why don't you go and rest for a while? After all, the overall situation here has to be controlled by His Royal Highness. ”

Seeing that the condition here was under control, Liu Yan whispered "I'm tired", so he lowered his head and walked towards the camp, but was stopped by Banrong.

"What's wrong?" Liu Yan was surprised, and glanced around mysteriously before whispering to Liu Yan, "Chu Shenxia asked me to bring a message to His Highness, Wen Yin's elbow does have a cinnabar mole." ”

The originally extremely light tone crashed into Liu Yan's ears like thunder, Liu Yan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his face became more and more pale.

Half-puzzled by his reaction, he said worriedly: "Your Highness, what's the matter?" Why is the complexion so bad? ”

"Nothing...... Thank you for speaking for him. Liu Yan smiled reluctantly, and walked into the camp tent on the side like a breeze.
