Chapter 361: Quell the Riot
Once the victims enter the city, the epidemic will not be able to be contained, and it will even spread to the entire capital.
If it is a small-scale painting of the ground as a prison, Xie Shiyun will think that there will be a way. But once it is a large-scale epidemic infection, not to mention the heavy casualties, it will also cause riots and cause people to live in poverty.
"Listen to me, now we have tried our best to isolate those who have contracted the epidemic and control the spread of the epidemic for the time being. So, there's no need to panic. Xie Shiyun stood at the top and shouted at them at the top of her voice, hoping to calm their emotions for the time being.
From the perspective of these victims, it is not unreasonable for them to panic.
Everyone lives reluctantly, just to live the rest of their lives in peace.
The victims were bent on rushing in, and no one could really hear her words.
As a result, she was inevitably anxious.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, it's not a way to go on like this." They don't know how many times they've heard those soothing words in the past two days, but they know very well in their hearts what it will mean if the epidemic breaks out.
"Please believe that the imperial court will definitely research a prescription in a short time."
They also need time, even if it's a few more days, to cherish for them.
The victims were talking in private, apparently hesitating about what to do next.
At this moment, I don't know who reported that the victims of the epidemic had unfortunately died.
In just one stick of incense, it once again triggered a large-scale riot.
Looking at the crowds of people struggling to squeeze forward, Xie Shiyun covered her forehead with a headache.
"Can you please stop and listen to me!"
Because Xie Shiyun was at the forefront, the victims desperately squeezed the fence, and some even wanted to climb over and sneak into the city.
Xie Shiyun was pushed and shoved by these people, and she almost couldn't stand firm.
She felt her throat screaming and no one paid attention.
If this continues, sooner or later, these victims will go into the city to cause trouble.
That kind of scene is unimaginable.
Just when Xie Shiyun was at a loss, Shen Sijun hurried over with a group of people and horses to control the situation at the scene in time.
A few victims who had managed to escape were picked up by the officers and soldiers and thrown back into the crowd.
Those officers and soldiers were holding spears, and they looked fierce and vicious, and with a general coming out to sit in town, everyone didn't dare to make a move, staring at Shen Sijun intently.
Xie Shiyun lifted the hem of her skirt and hurriedly ran to the city tower to look down at the victims below.
The position just now was not enough to pass on his words to them.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that you are in a anxious mood now, and you feel that only by entering the capital can you really survive. But don't forget, you still have a home to live outside the city, and if you enter the city, you will become a beggar! Is this what you want to live? ”
The question that rose slightly at the end made the victims below speechless.
Although they went to the city to survive, they did not want to become beggars, so they had to live on the streets.
"I sincerely consider you now, as the princess of a country, you must believe that the court will not give up its people."
"Saying all that, you always have to take action. Don't shrink your head as a turtle and hide in the city and don't see us! "Those who are still angry will inevitably refute it.
They don't see Xie Shiyun as a princess now, but as a channel to vent their dissatisfaction.
"Well, you don't believe it. Naturally, this princess will take action so that you can be truly convinced. ”
Xie Shiyun smiled slightly, and announced in public that during the period of the outbreak of the plague, he would always pay attention outside the city, and would develop a prescription as soon as possible.
"There is no evidence, from today onwards, you will see me in all corners of the city. If you don't believe me, you can meet me on the street. ”
What is said is the water that is spilled, Xie Shiyun has always been decisive in doing things, once he agrees, there is no reason to regret it.
The categorical remarks moved some of the victims present.
They know Xie Shiyun's character, and everyone praises her, and she is a princess of a country worthy of admiration.
"I'll stay here until the disaster is over."
Shen Sijun looked at Xie Shiyun's neither humble nor arrogant side, and suddenly felt that the woman in front of her was much stronger than she imagined.
"In the past two days, the emotions of the victims have been quite emotional. I'm now trying to make sure that these people don't rush into the city right away. ”
Seeing those victims pestle there without saying a word, Xie Shiyun knew that his words had a deterrent effect, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned her head sideways to discuss with Shen Sijun to see if there was a way to continue to delay time.
Researching prescriptions is not an easy task. The most important thing is that there must be enough time to do it.
"I've already sent a pair of men and horses to maintain order, and if the time comes, these victims still can't be controlled, and they will have to resort to illegal means."
Shen Sijun swept around the victims, most of them were old and weak, women and children, and they were powerless.
The most radical of these are none other than the young people.
"I won't make this decision unless I have to."
Xie Shiyun didn't want to be coercive, after all, backfire was the more terrible thing.
"We must convene the imperial doctor to discuss it later, and it is not a way to delay it again and again." She rubbed her brows worriedly, desperately hoping that some panacea could fall from the sky at this time, so that she could easily resolve the crisis.
Of course, thinking about it, she won't pin her on the good things that fall from the sky.
The people in the city were moved to learn that Xie Shiyun did not hesitate to sacrifice her life to live outside the city for them.
"Thanks to Her Royal Highness the Princess, who controlled the victims of the riot outside the city gates, otherwise the world would have been in chaos by now."
Due to the victims outside the city gate, the city gate has been closed for many days, and even if you want to go out, you have to go through a strict investigation.
They live in fear every day, for fear that one day these victims will suddenly rush in and snatch their things like crazy.
"We don't know how long this plague will last, and if we don't come up with an antidote as soon as possible, we will be affected sooner or later."
More people are worried about the spread of the plague, and this time it is menacing, and they don't know when they will be able to overcome the risk.
"If you have to believe in the princess, you will definitely turn evil into good fortune."
Some people regard Xie Shiyun as a believe, thinking that she is a living bodhisattva who can help them solve their problems.
"We can only pray silently now, these relatives are to hurry over, and the princess can come back safe and sound."
Others said yes and admired Xie Shiyun from the bottom of their hearts.
