Chapter 10: Arrival

It's not that she doesn't believe in Jun Lichen, it's that she can't be willful, she still has her family behind her, and those who follow her, she can't take their lives as a price.

"I believe in you, but...... Forget it, let's not talk about it for now. "It hasn't happened yet, so it's not fair to Jun Lichen, let it be.

The car suddenly became unusually quiet, Jun Lichen simply closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, at this moment he said that there are many, no matter how much assurance he makes, he will use practical actions to prove that he can hold up a piece of heaven for her.

Qiao Xi was holding the book in his hand, but he didn't read a word, and he didn't know if Jun Lichen was unhappy.

Although her intentions were good, she only thought of herself, and did not consider Jun Lichen's mood.

Think about it, if it were her, she would be unhappy.

It's really a person who thinks about the Celestial Empire, what can't she think of, it's not that she can't be separated here, if one day he really does something sorry for her in the future, it's a big deal to break up, and it's hard to live without anyone.

After figuring it out, don't get entangled, when you can be together, just enjoy the present, the future is still far away.

When they arrived in Fuyang County, they waited for a day, and the imperial doctors who set off from the capital also arrived, because the affairs in the upper counties were urgent, they did not rest, and set off directly towards the upper counties.

Along the way, the convoy did not dare to rest at all, and even slept wherever they went at night.

At this time, she missed the tent of the Celestial Empire, and she knew that there would be such a day, so she should have prepared a few of this, as well as sleeping bags, which were just right for use in winter.

Because Qiao Xi was dressed as a man outside, and he was with Jun Lichen, he gave them their original carriage, others didn't know, Lily and the people of the Qiao family knew it, these two were not big men, how could they sleep together, but they couldn't stop it, and the expression on their faces was blue and white.

Although Jun Lichen wanted to, he also knew that it was impossible, so he took the initiative to let the carriage out and let Qiao Xi rest inside.

Lily's face returned to normal.

It is very sinful to sleep in the open air on a winter night, but there is nothing that can be done.

The further south it goes, the more prosperous it becomes, but when it comes to the upper reaches of the county, the bustling city is gone, and there are people checking and guarding along the road from the beginning of the township, and they are not allowed to go out if they don't enter.

Of course, it is an extraordinary period now, and apart from them, no one will be stupid enough to run to the upper reaches of the county at this time.

Jun Lichen's soldiers had already arrived in the upper county first, because the pigeon was flying early in the morning to pass the book, and someone would wait for him at the city gate every day.

When he saw Jun Lichen appear, a soldier in armor came over and respectfully reported, "General, the city has been controlled, please go to the post station to rest, someone has been arranged to clean up there, and there are no rats and fleas." ”

"What's going on in the city right now?" Jun Lichen asked with a frown.

"The epidemic is getting worse and worse, and the number of people dying every day has been increasing." The soldier hesitated for a moment and replied honestly, "But my subordinates have already asked people to burn the corpses." ”

"What is the mood of the common people? Is there any trouble?! Jun Lichen went straight to the central problem.

Whether it is the town or the surrounding area, people are dying every day, and everywhere you can go is locked off, if there is no trouble, how can it be.

"Yes." The soldier's voice in reply was visibly weak. "Some people tried to escape, these people were arrested and beheaded directly to show the public, and some of them were not allowed to be burned because there were dead people in the family, and the quilts and mattresses at home were reluctant to be handed over as long as they were used, but they were all suppressed by the cold."

Qiao Xi has really seen the iron-blooded wrist of the ancients, and the psychology of those who want to escape and make trouble can actually be understood, but understanding is one thing, and this is also for the good of the living.

"Keep an eye on General Ben, where is the prefect?" Jun Lichen asked.

"The prefect patrols the city every day." When the soldier mentioned the prefect, there was a look of admiration on his face.

Jun Lichen was still quite satisfied with this news, but he was afraid that the people in the government would mess up first.

"Let's go to the inn first." Turned to Qiao Xi and said.

"Okay." Qiao Xi didn't object, he was a newcomer, and when he didn't know anything, it didn't make much use to go out rashly.

The brigade soon arrived at the inn outside the city.

"Xiaguan Zhang Lei has seen the general." The petty official in charge of the post station immediately came over to say goodbye when he got the news, and brushed up on his existence.

"Get up and take us to our room."

"Yes." In extraordinary times, there is nothing to pay attention to, just live there. Zhang Lei took them to the room.

Qiao Xi looked around the post house while walking, and found that there was a lot of quicklime in the corner, and nodded secretly, the sanitation work was still in place, and there was no perfunctory.

"I'll write a recipe, boil the decoction, everyone take it, do a prevention first, don't get infected yourself before you have researched the recipe."

"Yes, Childe." Lily is not disguised and is still dressed as a woman.

Only Lily is a woman brought out this time, and the others are men, it's not that she looks down on women, it's really that the women's minds here are difficult to change, many things are deeply ingrained in them, and she doesn't want to waste time on changing her minds.

What she brings is a medical skill, and she doesn't need to worry about it.

The amount of preventive medicine brought is not much, it is not that she is selfish, but she must first ensure that her own people will not be infected with the plague, and she will go out with the people she brought, and she will also give Jun Lichen and several of his subordinates. For the rest, she can only prevent it with decoctions.

Those imperial doctors who came with them, these people are usually pampered, and they only occasionally ask those people in the harem to ask for a peace pulse or something, how much can they do.

And if these people didn't come here because of the pressure of the holy decree, to be honest, they would definitely be unwilling, after all, a person's life is limited, and no one is not afraid of death.

But you can't overturn a boatload of people with a single rod, and there should be many compassionate people among them.

Along the way, Jun Lichen took special care of Qiao Xi, they actually had a lot of complaints, but because it was Jun Lichen, they didn't dare to make a mistake, the former little demon king, now he has become a god of war, and he has become an even more unprovoked existence, they dare to step forward to provoke, unless they are not afraid of death.

They know very well in their hearts, what kind of person Jun Lichen is, if anyone dares to doubt his decision, as long as someone dares to oppose him, he can slaughter people on the spot, there is no need for any reason, even if the emperor knows, he will not take it seriously, and may praise him for doing a good job.

When they arrived at the place where they lived, they tried their best to rub the people Qiao Xi brought and vent the evil anger in their hearts.

When they came, they traveled lightly, they couldn't bring anything, and when they came here, they had to do everything by themselves, and there was someone to command, of course, to command.

"You give Doctor Ben some decoction to soak your feet, these days, these feet are not your own." An old/bearded imperial doctor pointed to the people Qiao Xi had brought.

If someone takes the lead, there will be someone who follows the trend.

"Doctor Ben wants it too."

"And Imperial Doctor Ben, you come over and give me a beating on the back and pinching my shoulder."

The people from the Qiao family, although they were very reluctant in their hearts, had to do so at the moment, they didn't want to embarrass the girl, their identities were there, so they were commanded to turn around.

Lily boiled the decoction and distributed it to the soldiers guarding the outside, and then thought of these imperial doctors, so he came to them with the decoction.

As soon as he entered the house, he saw that the people brought by the girl were regarded as his own slaves by the imperial doctors, and they were directing them to serve him.

When Baihe saw this scene, she immediately became angry, she had never been angry with the girl for so many years, and the subordinates in the Qiao family had never been angry, and they were slaves in the Qiao family, but they were also respected by the girls and sons.

"What are you doing, let you come here to help Gongzi to heal the people, not to let you serve others."

"I'm sorry, Miss Lily, we just don't want to cause trouble for Childe."

"We won't do it again next time."

"I'm sorry, Lily girl."

The six teenagers bowed their heads and shamefully admitted their mistakes.

"Go out and turn right over there is the yard where you live, you go and clean up first, and you will start treatment tomorrow." Lily commanded with a serious face.

"Yes." After the teenagers answered loudly, no matter how ugly the faces of the doctors in the room were, they left directly.

"Presumptuous." Whitebeard was so angry that he slammed it on the table. Standby station

When have they been treated like this, although they can't compare to those ministers, but they are also regarded as well-known figures in the capital, how can they bear it when they are ridiculed by the little maidservants at this time.

"What a big courage, but a little maidservant, she dares to pose in front of adults, I don't know how many pounds and taels I have."

"Hmph, just your performance, tell the prince of the world, let the prince clean up well."

"It's just that such an uneducated person can be taken out of the house."

Six imperial doctors, three of them spoke with guns and sticks, and reprimanded Lily with their heads and faces.

The remaining two said it as human words, "Girl, I'm really sorry, Lord Wang is old, and he is really tired from the exhaustion of the journey, so he asked a few little brothers to help cook soup and soak their feet." ”

"I'm sorry, it's because we didn't think about it, but there are too few people in the inn, and we can arouse them without the consent of the host."

"Zhang Dayuan, Yang Chengdong, you two don't need to be bad people." Cai Zhenghua glared at them viciously.

Zhang Dayuan and Yang Chengdong's kindness, they didn't appreciate it, but they were scolded by the other party.

Lily glanced at Cai Zhenghua and them, and smiled coldly, "You two are not bad, these two bowls of preventive decoction will be given to you, those few must be big people, and their medical skills must be very clever, so don't give them." ”

Seeing this, the boy next to Lily smiled and handed over two bowls of steaming potions.

"Thank you, girl."

"Thank you, girl."

Zhang Dayuan and Yang Chengdong thanked them sincerely, took the decoction and drank it in one go.

Although they are noble doctors, in the face of the plague, they have no bottom in their hearts, and they have no idea where to start.

Seeing that they drank the decoction and medicine, they took the empty bowl, and regardless of the stinky faces of the three remaining imperial doctors, they left directly with the basket.

"Look at her arrogance, what kind of system has it become? What kind of system? Cai Zhenghua glared angrily at the two distant backs, but in fact, he was jealous of Zhang Dayuan and Yang Chengdong in his heart. Regardless of whether the decoction is useful or not, it is better to have something than not to come, and the dead girl actually didn't give it to them, angry with him, angry with him.

has been by Qiao Xi's side for so many years, Qiao Xi has not seen her angry, and she is just sending a decoction at this time, how can she still come back with a body of anger.

Even if Qiao Xi didn't ask, Lily wouldn't say a word, and told the girl what happened to the imperial doctor.

"You're doing the right thing." Qiao Xi sneered and approve, some people like to be self-righteous, and it is necessary to let them suffer some hardships.

I don't look at the situation in front of me, and I don't come to have fun, but I actually command others, what a big score!

"You remember, tomorrow you will be under my command, and here except for me and the general, no matter who the rest of the people are, they don't have to deal with them." She is the only one who has the right to control the people she brings, and the rest of the people want to have to agree with her or not.

"Yes, girl."

This was just a small episode, but it still reached Jun Lichen's ears, and Jun Lichen was directly furious, "Tell those few, give General Ben some points, otherwise General Ben doesn't mind letting them stay in the upper county forever." ”

"Yes, master." As soon as Liang Qi heard it, he knew that the master was murderous.

In the past few days, I have been by the master's side, and I know very well what kind of existence the disguised Qiao girl is to the master, those individuals, I really think that those people can be called at will, even the master will not easily call them, those people are good, on the first day, they made some moths, and they made themselves to death, and there is no one.

Let them come here to solve the plague, not let them come to have fun, one by one I don't know what to say.

He went to the courtyard where the imperial doctors lived, and conveyed Jun Lichen's words word for word, which frightened several imperial doctors into a cold sweat, how could they forget the little demon king, that person was brought by the little demon king, why did they go to call those people with a hot head.

Only Zhang Dayuan and Yang Chengdong were more fortunate that they did not join them, otherwise their fate can be imagined.

Think about it, the little demon king has grown up, but his ability is there, even the prince doesn't dare to clash with him head-on, what are they, in his eyes, there is probably not much difference between them and ants.

There are not many protective clothing on her side, except for one for each person she brought, there are only ten left, these protective clothing are intended to be used when opening a medical hall in the future, but I didn't expect to use it here first, this clothing is used here, and the final result is to burn, hey, I have to let people make such clothes when I go back.

This protective suit is the sterile suit of the previous life, which is used to isolate some unnecessary things from contaminating itself.

"I only have ten pieces of this dress here, you take one, and you look at the rest." Early the next morning, Jun Lichen came to Qiao Xi's yard, and Qiao Xi took out the protective suit, and he made the decision as to how to dispose of it.

"Do you have it yourself? You take care of yourself first. Jun Lichen didn't let people do it right away, but first made sure that she had it on her side.

"I have, you can rest assured. Approximate time of departure. ”

"Anytime."

"We'll do it here."

"Let's go, then."

When I was outside the city, the feeling was not so obvious, and when I entered the county seat of the upper county, everyone felt what kind of disaster this plague brought to the people of the upstream county.

There were no people in sight on the street, it was empty, nine out of ten shops were closed, and when I saw pedestrians on the street, my face was also hurried, with a sad atmosphere.

Looking at the empty street, Qiao Xi couldn't help but close his brows together, feeling that this phenomenon was a little wrong, and turned his head to ask Jun Lichen: "Jun Lichen, do you know where all the people here have gone?" ”

"Go to the county office and have a look." Jun Lichen thought for a moment and said.

A few people came to the county office, but unfortunately there was no officer, and the prefect of the county and the prefect were definitely not there.

"General." The captain of a patrol team saw their group, recognized Jun Lichen and a few people, and immediately stepped forward to salute.

"What about people?" Jun Lichen asked.

"It's all in Xicheng, and all the patients are concentrated in that area." The captain replied respectfully.

"Lead the way."

"Yes."

The once prosperous Xicheng has now become a purgatory on earth.

On the street, in every room and on the ground, there were sick people, a dozen doctors and a few imperial doctors who had come earlier were busy sweating profusely, and there were many soldiers guarding them.

Anyone who dies here is immediately dragged out and burned outside the city gates, and there is a foul smell in the air.

The appearance of Qiao Xi and his party caused a commotion among the people.

"The lower officer has seen the general." The prefect had just received the news and knew that the person who came over was the new war king, so he hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

The prefect's face looked dark gray, and at a glance, he knew that he didn't have a good rest, but also, if something so big happened, how could he rest well, it was already good to have no irresponsible escape, and it was already good to be an official to do his part, and it was worthy of admiration.

"Reach out." Qiao Xi had to judge whether he had contracted the plague or not.

"Huh?" The prefect was taken aback, not knowing what he meant by letting him stretch out his hand, and he couldn't react a little.

"He's a doctor, so he'll do whatever he wants?" Jun Lichen swept over with a cold eye.

"Yes, yes." The prefect trembled, didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi personally checked his pulse, but fortunately, the prefect's body was not infected with the plague, but he was too tired for several days, and he was basically healthy. "Eat this pill."

Lily cooperated and lowered the pill down.

The prefect was a little at a loss, but Jun Lichen's gaze kept falling on him, and he could only bite the bullet and swallow the pill gratefully.

Seeing that the prefect was taking a preventive pill as if he was taking poison, Qiao Xi kindly explained: "This is a pill to prevent plague." ”
