Chapter 61: Don't dare to refuse
Chapter 61
Mo Feng couldn't care much, so he introduced the three of them into the east wing.
When Shang Yuyue saw Tang Ning, she was surprised and a little kind, and she said from a distance: "Don't come here while standing." ”
Tang Ning and the three of them paused.
Shang Yuyue smiled bitterly: "The situation in the Shang Mansion is not very good now. ”
Tang Ning glanced at Shang Yuyue deeply, removed the screen, sat down far away from her, and said to Du Ting, who was frowning, "Go and show her." ”
Du Ting nodded, sat opposite Shang Yuyue and took out a face towel to cover his face, he said, "I'm sorry." ”
Shang Yuyue did not take off the face towel on his face, nodded at Du Ting, and stretched out his wrist: "There is labor." ”
"Now there are thirteen people infected with the plague who have been quarantined outside, and we found out that there is a girl in the Shang Mansion who had a happy ...... with a man who was quarantined three days ago" Tang Ning frowned, "Now it seems that the Shang Mansion has been affected." ”
Shang Yueyue looked back at Tang Ning, "When did you discover the plague?" ”
"This morning."
Shang Yueyue's face was expressionless, Du Ting motioned for her to change her hand, and she listened as she said.
"Chen Shaoyou has now issued a notice, the whole city is under martial law, but anyone who comes from Jinzhou, Jinzhou, and Lanzhou will be checked."
"Jinju and Lanzhou are really ......"
Tang Ning glanced at Shang Yuyue and sighed: "The flood in Jinzhou has only receded a little, and there are private boats carrying people to flee around, and Jinzhou is now a plague state. ”
It is unbelievable that there could be such a large-scale plague in just one month!
"Jinzhou embankment bursts, flash floods erupt, houses collapse, mountain collapses, and serious casualties! Heavy rains in January, lack of food, people killed and grabbed food, or looked for those corpses that were thrown in mass graves to wrap their stomachs, and even some people even went to catch mice that ate the corpses to eat, for a time, the epidemic broke out, and all the towns and cities in Jinzhou were infected with the plague, even the most barren and remote town of Ju'an was not spared. ”
Hearing Ju'an Town, Shang Yue Meng got up, "There are tens of thousands of loads of grain there, how can it be?" No matter how hungry Jinzhou is, how can he be hungry to Ju'an Town! How did the plague get there? The mountain people there rarely go out of Ju'an Town, so how could they go out when they knew that there was a flood in Jinzhou? ”
Tang Ning looked at her and didn't speak.
"Because of greed!"
It was Ning Jinmo who spoke, and he said coldly: "Because I know that Jinzhou is short of food, some people can pay a sky-high price of ten taels of silver for a pound of rice." Those villagers in Ju'an Town, for the sake of silver, arrested a big grain merchant who had only come to the town for a short time, and robbed the grain merchant of grain.
After that, half of the grain was sold overnight, and the rest was snatched up by people from other villages. As a result, Ju'an Town became a corpse town, and later after the outbreak of the plague, Ju'an Town was not spared. ”
Shang Yuyue sat down abruptly, her face dead.
This was not her original intention, she hoped to transport the batch of grain that Shang Jinyan said, and wait to avoid the dam and burst the embankment to the state capital Yamen, with that batch of grain plus the state capital's grain stockpile, it is not difficult to alleviate the famine in Jinzhou.
She has already arranged, once the river in Jinzhou is cleared, she will transport the next batch of grain, she has prepared a large amount of grain with Tao Kite, just waiting to send it over, and she even told Shang Jinyan about the follow-up grain, Shang Jinyan will collect a large amount of grain and transport it to Jinzhou, in order to prevent foreign businessmen with a bad conscience from raising the price of rice to make black money......
She's already arranged!
But she didn't expect that the consequences of the levee burst would be so serious, so serious that there would be corpses and food grabbing before the food in Ju'an Town could be delivered.
"After the embankment broke, the people's food and clothing were washed away, there was no food, they ate the bark of the roots, the successive torrential rains caused flash floods, many towns in Jinzhou were flooded, and eating was even more imminent, but the prefect of Jinzhou did not open a warehouse to release the mother, so that a few days later, when the flash flood broke out again, the granary was washed away by the flood and submerged, and the grain particles were gone, and the whole Jinzhou was caught in the flood."
Tang Ning looked at Shang Yuyue in a complicated way, "I also arranged a lot of grain to enter Jinzhou before, but ...... All of them were taken away by the prefect of Jinzhou and sold at a sky-high price, so there was a matter of eating corpses and grabbing food. ”
Du Ting had been listening quietly, his hand had already left Shang Yueyue's wrist.
Seeing that Tang Ning and Shang Yueyue were no longer talking, Ning Jinmo opened his mouth and asked Du Ting: "How is she?" ”
The three of them looked at Du Ting in unison, Du Ting lowered his eyes and nodded solemnly, "Infected." ”
Tang Ning's face turned pale.
Shang Yuyue clenched his fists.
"You can save her!"
Tang Ninghuo got up and pulled up Du Ting, who was disinfecting his hands with spirits, "You save her, you must!" ”
Ning Jinmo looked at the silent Shang Yueyue in a complicated manner, Tang Ning told him everything about Shang Yueyue and him in his previous life, he took a special look at Shang Yueyue, he hugged Tang Ning and said to Du Ting: "What medicinal materials do you need, I ordered someone to send them from the capital quickly." ”
Du Ting hesitated slightly, then looked at Shang Yuyue, "Do you dare to gamble with your life?" ”
"Bet?" Shang Yuyue said self-deprecating and firm: "This kind of bet is really not small. Still, I didn't dare to refuse. ”
"Ning Bao'er ......"
Shang Jinyan and Mrs. Shang's Li both rushed into the house sweating profusely, "Let Dr. Zhao show you, now there is a plague in Jinzhou and the surrounding state cities, and it has spread to Liuzhou, do the people who are waiting for you have any symptoms of fever and cough?" Niannu just came to check my mother's pulse for some reason, and left in a hurry, do you also know about the plague outside? ”
Shang Jinyan's face was full of urgency, the old doctor Zhao behind him was panting, and the Shang lady Li on the side frowned and looked at the other three people in the room, Li raised his eyes again to look at Shang Yuyue, who pretended to be calm, Shang Jinyan didn't care about the back house, she didn't know what was happening in the kitchen now, but as a housemother, she knew.
The kitchen is controlled, and Niannu is checking the pulse one by one.
And another girl sent by Shang Yuyue locked up two hot people in the kitchen, and those who came into contact with the two were guarded.
Now, the house has been found from the backyard to the front yard.
There are more than twenty people under control and seven people under quarantine.
Li knew that the Shang Mansion was probably infected by the plague, and Shang Yuyue was cleaning up.
"Daddy," Shang Yuyue didn't get up, just smiled reluctantly: "I know about this, it's what I mean by Nian Nu to see you and your mother, since Nian Nu didn't come to report the situation of you and your mother, I want to come to your body is good, but, just in case, I still ask Dr. Du to take a look again." ”
Shang Jinyan noticed the other three people in the room, "Why is Miss Tang here?" ”
