Chapter 334: Pacify
"That's what everyone thinks? That being the case, then I, Chang Yuan, can't lag behind, and when this plague subsides, I will prepare for the emperor ceremony."
There was some silence from the people below.
"General, can this plague really be quelled?"
Many of these people came from outside, if it weren't for Chang Yuan's urgent call, they wouldn't be willing to get close to Taixi County, it would be a plague, whoever touches it will die!
On the way here, everyone was terrified, and when they approached the city, they found that the city was not as terrifying as they imagined, not full of mourning, except for the tighter defense, there seemed to be no corpses everywhere they imagined.
When the plague broke out, everyone persuaded Chang Yuan to move out of Taixi County, believing that Chang Yuan should not stand under a dangerous wall, which would affect the morale of their rebel team.
But Chang Yuan refused, and Ning Changrong temporarily controlled the plague, if he left, the people in the city would learn that it would be even more chaotic, and they would definitely lose the hearts of the people.
If there is no way to treat it, it doesn't matter, but Ning Changrong proposed a method of control, and the prescription that Wang Xiujuan took out was indeed effective after verification, and some patients were slowly recovering, and at this time, as soon as he left, not only did his prestige greatly decrease, but his reputation in the hearts of the people was also unworthy of his name.
"Let Mr. Ning answer this question." Chang Yuan said with a smile.
Everyone looked at Ning Changrong suspiciously, Ning Changrong stood up with his hands, and said calmly, "The plague can naturally be quelled, thanks to my mother's plague treatment prescription, now the patients who have the plague are slowly improving, if you don't believe it, you can go and see for yourself."
He turned to look at the crowd, "Everyone should have observed when they came to the county through the east gate, although the city is not as prosperous as before, there are no casualties, everyone has a fixed time for activities, activity routes, no shortage of food, no shortage of drink, just wait for the plague to subside and the law and order will be restored again to resume freedom of travel."
"Think about it, if the plague can't be quelled, will the people in the city be so obedient and wait for the arrangement?"
After a pause, Ning Changrong turned to Chang Yuan and said, "General, this proposal is very good, after the plague subsides, he will be the emperor, which means that the general loves the people and makes way for the people, which is the destiny of heaven, and will be more supported by the people at that time."
Most of their team are ordinary people, unlike other forces that are mixed with families and local powers, they are more dependent on the people, and the people are their roots.
If Ning Changrong can quell the plague and then become emperor again, Chang Yuan's prestige will indeed be as high among the people.
Since ancient times, plagues can only dissipate on their own, and those who get the plague either burn to death or die of disease, but they can cure the plague, what is this not destiny?
The ancients all said that the son was silent and the strange power was chaotic, but at the same time, they believed in ghosts and gods very much, and Chang Yuan, who could cure the plague, was destined to return in their eyes, and the gold content of Chang Yuan, the emperor, could directly overwhelm everyone.
After figuring out the key to the matter, everyone was excited.
"Mr. Ning is right, this can really be so, we are a team that is destined to return."
"Hahaha, if only that were the case, it means that God approves of us! What those people who read is a piece of, no matter how big they are, can they be as big as God? If they have the ability, they will also cure a plague!"
"It's still Mr. Ning who has the ability, first broke their plan to use the people to drag us down, and then controlled the plague strictly, and now he can treat the patient well, Mr. Ning is very talented."
Ning Changrong waved his hand, "You praise me and I will accept the others with a cheeky face, but the rules for controlling the plague and the prescriptions for treating plague patients are all passed down by my mother, and these praises for me as a son dare not accept them."
"Haha, yes, yes, Mr. Ning has the ability, and Aunt Wang is also a capable person! If we don't have Aunt Wang this time, maybe we will be sad."
At present, everyone can still sit here and talk and laugh, and most of the credit depends on Wang Xiujuan, which is the consensus of everyone's psychology.
When it was reported that the plague had broken out in Taixi County, everyone was panicked and thought they were finished.
At that time, Chang Yuan's family was in Taixi County
Surrounded by the people infected with the plague, once something happens to Chang Yuan, their team led by Chang Yuan will not be long before they fall apart.
Don't look at everyone as old brothers who fight the world together, they can fight and joke on weekdays, but in fact, everyone has arrogance in their hearts, and no one obeys anyone, except for Chang Yuan, no one can suppress everyone, and it is normal to be torn apart when the time comes.
In this way, they will lose the opportunity to seize the world.
"Okay, since you have agreed, then please ask Mr. Ning and Mr. Bai and you gentlemen to help out a specific process, just wait for the plague to subside and start, now in the city, the situation is special, so I will not leave you, and on the day of the enthronement ceremony, Yuan will feast with you and celebrate with you."
When the meeting was over, everyone went back and forth, and the steps of the people returned in a hurry, as if there were wild beasts behind them with their mouths open and ready to devour them.
Although Ning Changrong was very sure that the plague had slowly subsided, none of them dared to be 100% sure, so it was better to go first.
Before going home, I went to the city wall of Xicheng to take a look, and the bottom was still in order, and Ning Changrong, who was relieved, went down the city wall to detoxify himself and returned home.
"Dad, are you discussing the matter of becoming emperor today?"
"How do you know?" Ning Changrong looked at his daughter curiously, "This news hasn't started to spread yet, has it?"
Ning Qingxi said with a smile, "General Chang summoned so many people into the city at once, and it was after Liu Jianxing and several people became emperor one after another, plus it was the juncture of this plague, not for the sake of being the emperor, how could General Chang suddenly summon people over?" But I'll just guess, look at your expression, I'm right."
Ning Changrong nodded, "You little girl, that's right, you guessed right, then you can guess what the outcome of the meeting will be?"
Ning Qingxi was silent for a while, and then said, "It should be decided to become emperor, but it will wait until the plague subsides."
At this time, Ning Changrong was really a little surprised, "You can also guess this? Looks like you've been making up a lot of lessons lately."
Ning Qingxi sat directly on the side of the stool, "Dad, you deal with political affairs every day, and you come back to tell me and grandma every day, no matter what, I have cultivated a little political consciousness, right?" Can't you guess?"
"Dad, have you ever thought about a question? Will the enemy sit back and wait for us to slowly cure the plague? Now they feel that we can't cure it, so they stand by and watch, and when they find out that we can cure it, will they take advantage of your illness to kill you? Most of our energy is focused on fighting the plague, and there are probably some people in other places who are panicking, will they take the opportunity to attack other towns and join forces to annex us?"
