Gua Er smiled, neither refuted nor admitted, pretending to be stupid made Gu Qingzhang laugh when he saw it.

"Go," he did not want to get in the way of the eyes of the couple, so he sent them away, "and then pass my order, the woman's dowry is two hundred yuan, and the man's dowry is three hundred yuan." ”

"What chickens, ducks, and poultry, don't be stingy today, so that the people who come to the banquet can eat enough."

Now is the time when Lingzhou is in ruins and needs to regroup and recuperate, and the surrounding people and soldiers immediately cheered when they heard this.

Looking at the hopeful faces of the people, Gu Qingzhang felt both relieved and even more burdened with a heavy burden on his shoulders.

It's just that the little couples here are too sweet, so that he is really uncomfortable in his heart as a lonely man now, and Ning Anhou, who is empty in the boudoir, decisively chose to retreat.

He returned to the deserted mansion, but he somehow did not want to take care of official business on a day like today.

Gu Qingzhang saw that there was no one around, so he simply climbed onto the roof three or two times.

He lay down comfortably on the roof, and although there was no hazy and cold moon in the sky, there was a warm sun and a gentle breeze.

Gu Qingzhang put his hands and arms behind his head, he closed his eyes, although the person was still in Lingzhou City, his soul had already flown to Suzhou City.

I don't know what is happening to Chonghan now, and will the surrounding rebellion endanger Suzhou City? No, it shouldn't be, Lin Yizhou is still in Suzhou City, and he will never tolerate such a thing.

Will the outcasts outside the city affect her life, and will she feel sad to see them......

With such a question in his arms, Gu Qingzhang's thoughts drifted away unconsciously, and his breathing gradually became slower.

In such a light and gentle weather, Ning Anhou, who had been busy for a few days and nights and couldn't get a good night's sleep, fell asleep peacefully.

And meet his sweetheart in a dream.

*

At this time, Lin Chonghan, who was far away in Suzhou, seemed to feel it in her heart, she put down the pen in her hand, looked at the north from afar, and didn't know what it was like in her heart.

When she picked up the pen again, she slowly wrote on the paper: Qinglang personally opened.

Lin Chonghan relayed the horseshoe to him from beginning to end, and asked him about his situation in Lingzhou, and after thinking about it for a while, he added a sentence as if inadvertently: Jun has been away for a few days, when will he return?

Countless thoughts and lingering sorrows, tossing and turning, are all condensed in this short word "return".

After writing a letter, Lin Chonghan put down the pen again, and while waiting for the ink to dry, his eyes were aimless, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Miss," Haruga knocked softly, "someone from the government has come from the government, saying that the adults from the capital have come to transport grain for disaster relief." ”

Lin Chonghan said: "Push it." It's not a big deal, so let's just say that I'm very tired in the past two days and won't go. ”

Kasuga said yes and left.

After she said this, she did feel a little tired, so she came to the recliner where Lin Shijing used to lie in front of the small building, ready to take a nap here and take a good rest.

It's just that she hasn't finished sleeping yet, but she is woken up by the spring sun.

Opening his eyes to the anxious expression of the personal maid, Lin Chonghan was still a little dazed, and subconsciously asked, "What, what's wrong?" ”

Kasuga apparently trotted over from the front yard in a hurry, and his jewelry and clothes were a little messy.

She said, "Girl, there seems to be a plague out there!" ”

Lin Chonghan was frightened by her, she sat up suddenly, didn't care about the dizziness of getting up in a hurry, and asked, "Is this true or false?" ”

"It's Doctor Sun's men who sent the slave maid to you," Haruga said with a bitter face, sweat running down his cheeks, "let you hurry up and see—oh yes! He told you not to go outside the city for the time being, but to go to the Mystic Temple. ”

Lin Chonghan didn't care much when she heard this, she hurriedly sorted out her clothes, rode a horse and took people to the Taoist temple again.

When she arrived at the Taoist temple, Doctor Sun and Xiao Yongqi were sitting on the grass sighing, and when they saw her, they just beckoned her to come over.

Lin Chonghan walked over and heard Doctor Sun say, "...... Alas, I wonder how this disease came about? ”

"Listen to the tone of the divine doctor," Lin Chonghan also knelt on the grass, "You don't know the source of this disease?" ”

Doctor Sun shook his head.

He told Lin Chonghan that he had been outside the city to see a doctor before, and that although the homeless people were hungry, most of them still had a conscience.

A few days later, another group of homeless people came outside, all of them numb and abusive, and some of them were almost completely unconscious.

He could even see from afar that if someone fell, the rest would quickly rush up and eat him up without hesitation.

With such a homeless person, Doctor Sun didn't dare to let them approach rashly.

"The previous displaced people have been naturalized," Lin Chonghan agreed, "If you rashly approach these new displaced people, I am afraid it will cause a lot of trouble." ”

These days, Dr. Sun has also gained a lot of good reputation for free medical treatment outside, and some officers and soldiers who have old diseases or have sick people in their families invite him to see a doctor, and he will not refuse to come.

The officers and soldiers were willing to give him this face, so under his persuasion, they erected protective belts from afar, preventing the new refugees from approaching, and only receiving some food every day.

Doctor Sun continued: "The old man originally wanted to come and tell the county lord about this matter, but he didn't expect that this morning, one of them suddenly became ill. ”

Lin Chonghan's heart tightened, and he asked: "Do people who get sick die, and what are the symptoms of the disease?" ”

"The officers and men on patrol stood on the high platform and saw it clearly," said Dr. Sun, "according to them, the sick person had a high fever, unconsciousness, chills, vomiting and even vomiting blood." ”

He added: "One of the officers and soldiers told me that the disease seemed to be very contagious, and that many people had contracted it in a single day. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Yongqi and Lin Chonghan couldn't help but be silent.

Lin Chonghan shook his head: "The locusts in the fields have not been completely eradicated, and the government has sent people to hunt and kill batch after batch, but the effect is still not great. ”

"There is another great drought and famine in the Central Plains," Xiao Yongqi said slowly, his tone slightly gloomy, "Once this situation is not controlled, how long can the entire Suzhou City hold on?" ”

"How long can the entire Gusu Mansion last?"

The three of them fell silent for a long time.

"The divine doctor knows," Lin Chonghan cleared his throat and asked with difficulty, "What is this epidemic?" ”

Doctor Sun shook his head.

Even with his medical skills, if he did not observe the patient up close, he would not be able to determine what kind of disease it was.

"Since the contagion is strong, you can't find the root cause of the disease for the time being," Lin Chonghan stood up immediately and quickly made a decision, "Then what we have to do is to temporarily cut off the source of infection." ”

"We must not allow this disease to spread to the city of Suzhou."
