Chapter 80: The Fire Burns Huazhai
In the past two months, I can't smell the fragrance of birds and flowers, I deal with herbs all day long, watching the sharp increase in the number of sick people, from dozens to hundreds, you can thousands in the blink of an eye, Shengjing City has divided the area of severe disease, gradually, it seems that the isolation and treatment of the epidemic has been effective, the spread of the epidemic is not as wide as the initial prediction, only because there is no rapid cure method resulting in a lot of serious patients.
Where there are dead, there will be corpses.
If there is a corpse, it has to be disposed of.
At first, a hole was dug in the corner of the city wall to fill in the matter, but this was not a long-term solution.
Every day, no, every moment in the Gu family's medicine house, there are new lives that fall astray.
The whole Shengjing City was full of mourning and wailing, and the appearance of the devastated life made people unbearable pantothenic acid and full of devastation.
Gu Qingxun thought about it and went to the king of Jin, those who died of illness should not be buried in the soil or exposed to the sun, they should be dealt with immediately, and the best thing is to burn them in a centralized manner.
Now the corpses can't be transported out of the city, so they can only find a secluded place in the city.
But the capital is prosperous, every inch of land is gold, no matter where you turn a corner out, it is an overcrowded place.
Look, the Forbidden Palace naturally can't be moved, that is, the houses and streets around the palace can't be touched, and the officials' mansions can't be shoveled, so what's left?
When Lord Jiang brought the soldiers and horses of the Nine Gates and Lu Yixuan and others to ask for help, the King of Jin took a sip of the tea cup and said that the old god was there: "The palace has already chosen the boundary, and sent people to divide the isolation area to demolish and resettle the surrounding neighborhood houses, and only wait for the corpses to arrive, and they can be burned." ā
This is really out of Jiang Weihang and Lu Yixing's expectations, the King of Jin is resolute and resolute, and his name is well deserved: "Dare to ask His Highness where the location of the ......" is.
"The eight streets and six squares where Yuehuazhai is located." King Jin closed the teacup with a "click", his voice was cold, and there was no room for negotiation.
He's just informing.
Lu Yixing was shocked in his heart, and Jiang Weihang next to him was also stunned for a long time without spitting out a word, no one knows, this Yue Hua Zhai is a place that Feng Xiaowang often visits, don't say that this is a must in Shengjing City, whether it is the beauties in it, or the gambling house silver building, it is brilliant and dazzling, and it can be regarded as a famous resort in Shengjing.
And the King of Jin chose it - after Feng Ming's evil left Shengjing, he named and used it to burn the corpse.
"That's-" Lu Yixuan subconsciously blurted out, that is the land of the little prince, who can move in this Shengjing City, now Feng Mingxie for the people of Shengjing to leave the city to turnover, if it weren't for the arrival of a lot of medicinal materials and uses from Mujin and Zhuzhuang during this period of time, I am afraid that the large and small medical halls in Shengjing City would have run out of food, but Ming Yan wanted to use the public for personal gain and burn Yuehua Zhai in a grand manner.
Lu Yixing's words were not finished, not only because of Mingyi's cold eyes, but also because Jiang Weihang on the side gently tugged her and shook her head.
The little girl's words were swallowed back.
How could the King of Jin not be able to see Lu Yixuan's face full of reluctance, he stood up and dusted off his robe: "I heard that Deputy Envoy Lu has always hated the ruffians and hooligans who eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, and now these silverfish-like blockades in the capital finally have an opportunity to contribute to the court and the people, you seem to be unhappy." ā
Ming Yi speaks critically, you Lu Yixin didn't force your eldest brother to change his mind, you Lu Yixuan is not jealous and hateful, those places of eating, drinking and having fun make the playboys drunk and dream of death all day long, which is both bliss on earth and hell on earth, and now that the national disaster is at the head, it is time to "sacrifice and sacrifice" instead of the people.
"There are one hundred and three singers and dancers in Yuehua Zhai, and fifty-two small slaves, but they are all innocent people." Lu Yixin did not answer King Jin's words directly.
King Jin waved his hand: "All the men, women and children in the building have been dismissed, looking at the street that never sleeps, it is the most spacious, burning for three days and three nights, so that the people can see, our intentions and determination." He opened the curtain and stepped out, and the soldiers of the patrol battalion hurriedly dug up the buried corpses and sent them to Yuehuazhai according to the plan.
Today, the fire will never sleep.
Lu Yixuan pursed the corners of his lips and followed out of the camp tent without a trace of relief, the smoke blowing in the wind carried a cry of pity and a bitter smell of herbs, this summer day was as bleak and mournful as late autumn.
"His Royal Highness the King of Jin is afraid that this breath has been held for too long," Jiang Weihang understood very well in his heart, Feng Xiaowang left the city and he made a move, which was obviously deliberate, and now he is still crowned with the name of Anmin epidemic prevention, you are helpless, "It's all the relics of Concubine Li." Lord Jiang also waved his hand to the officials on the side, should go to beat the gong and drum to continue, should burn the gate medicinal herbs to make pills continue, should go to patrol and change the guard, Yue Hua Zhai can't be saved, what about them, just listen to the will of the above.
"Relic?" Lu Yixin was stunned, "What's the matter?" "To be honest, King Jin and Feng Mingxie are uncles and nephews, and she doesn't understand why King Jin is suddenly so-for-tat with the little prince.
Jiang Weihang said "hey", he looked at the blank expression of the girl of the Lu family, straightened his back and led her aside to speak: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has a dagger that is regarded as a treasure, which was given by Concubine Li when she was dying on the sickbed, and the Son of Heaven gave the King of Jin a special gift to take with him into the Forbidden Palace. Jiang Weihang's words were not straightforward, and his eyes glanced at Lu Yixing.
Who dares to take out a knife from King Jin in this world, well, there is only Feng Xiaowangye.
"The Son of Heaven knows that this matter has passed lightly, but the King of Jin will repay it, of course he holds a grudge." Jiang Weihang saw that Lu Yixuan still didn't understand, but he didn't understand, "Miss Lu, are you really not clear or pretending not to know?" ā
Lu Yixuan was so stunned that his body stiffened.
"I don't know how much of the rumors inside and outside the palace are true or false, who is the little prince for," Jiang Weihang sighed and shrugged, reaching out to touch his little stubble, "Who was injured in that East Palace trip." He also did not name names.
The East Palace of the Sacrifice to Heaven was assassinated, and the most seriously injured person was naturally Lu Yixuan.
But the girl of the Lu family stood on the cusp of the storm, but she was like a second King Kong who didn't understand the amorous feelings, and Jiang Weihang didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"What does Lord Jiang mean, little prince, yes, because, me?" Lu Yixuan pointed to himself very bluntly, and this simple sentence paused for five moments, as if he was dumbfounded and couldn't believe it.
Jiang Weihang stroked his forehead and smiled: "Miss Lu, I heard that Miss Yue Chi of Yue Hua Zhai said that you are a wood, the official originally didn't believe it, but now he believes it, but now, after suffering from Yue Hua Zhai, the name of the first silver building in Shengjing City is afraid that it will make His Royal Highness the King of Jin angry, don't talk to him, otherwise, I can give you a crime that is not serious." ā
A silver building gambling house is not worth it.
Lu Yixing, it seems that Jiang Weihang's words really stunned her, she has been so busy during this time that people are so busy that she is full of flesh and blood or sickness, and the whole person is trembling and nervous and does not dare to relax the slightest bit, but the three words "Feng Ming Evil" suddenly fell into her mind from the clouds outside the clouds because of Jiang Weihang's words - who is the little prince for?
Lu Yixuan's head didn't turn around, and her heart was suddenly suffocated by countless silk threads like bandages, she didn't understand, didn't understand, or rather, Feng Mingxi's teasing and teasing that she never cared about and even felt shameless and ridiculous had become ambiguous with unknown meaning.
Jiang Weihang coughed lightly, and the girl came back to her senses.
"IāI'm going to help them transport the bodies." Lu Yixuan's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly flashed into the soldier team on the side.
Not only the Gu family medicine store, but also the other medical centers that treat patients and the nearby medical camps are also dying all the time, and now with an order, the piled up corpses are transported to Yuehuazhai from all directions.
Plank carriages go from one carriage to another, and I can't count how many there are.
Lu Yixuan accompanied the transport of the board to Yuehua Zhai, this treasure building gold carved jade, at first glance feel beautiful, don't just look at the eaves outside the angular beast carving, inside is even more jewelry, magnificent, dizzying, but now, all the beauties are swept away.
Yes, it's empty, only the wind, passing through the hall.
The corpses of men, women, and children were piled up in the middle of the building, and the carved windows were sealed with wood, and the final blockade was being carried out, as if they were afraid that the ghosts in the house would crawl out of the ground in the middle of the night.
Incubus.
Although the control of the epidemic has been effective, death is still close at hand, and the orphans, widows, the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled who have lost their relatives are still embarrassing.
Lu Yixing's body is petite, and his strength is not small, pushing the cart and lifting his shoulders and leaning inside, looking at the corpses rolling down as if they were abandoned and then piled up in a random pile, the soldiers are all covering their mouths and noses and hurriedly throwing them down and running, not wanting to stay in this dead man's building for a moment.
Lu Yixuan sighed, dragged the upside-down corpse in, only to find that there was a child's body on the cart, small, about seven or eight years old, gray-headed, the faint tear stains divided the traces of dust has not subsided, the back of the hand and arm are full of scratched red marks, maybe it is a mother who is unwilling to let go until death.
Lu Yixuan's heart was sour, in the face of such a disaster, everyone seemed too small, for the dead, for the high power, for the thousands of holes you saw when you opened your eyes, they were all extremely depressed and powerless.
She gently dragged the child's body out and put it on top, and even the heart of the stone would tremble and tremble.
It's bustling and extravagant, and it's full of corpses.
Difficulty breathing is like a dull cage squeezed in the heart of the chest, making it difficult to express, when the military service came back to his senses, the soldiers took the cart early and went to the empty building, and soon, the most beautiful nightless sky in Shengjing City was about to turn into ashes.
Lu Yixuan slowly turned around and gently pushed the door downstairs, but found that the door did not move at all.
She pushed again, "Boom", and the door tightened.
Lu Yixing's brain suddenly exploded, and someone locked her and these corpses in Yuehua Zhai!
