Chapter 296: No regrets in this life to enter Yanhua, and in the next life, I will still be a Great Xia person
Looking at it, Liu Da suddenly found that among the three nobles, two were unusually familiar, and they seemed to have seen them somewhere.
His mind was groggy, he thought about it for a while, and only then did his mind gradually come up with the appearance of His Majesty and Grandpa Lu that he saw on the canopy during the Yuan Reform Ceremony last year.
In just a few moments, the picture in my mind and the reality coincide completely.
He was startled, and then before the others could speak, he hurriedly fell to his knees.
"Xiaomin. Meet Your Majesty! ”
"Meet Grandpa Lu!"
As soon as he spoke, the others quickly reacted.
After seeing Lu Chen and Jiang Chengwan's appearances clearly, they also knelt down one after another.
"No courtesy."
Jiang Chengwan responded indifferently.
Everyone hurriedly got up, and then all the patients, including Liu Da, looked at Lu Chen in unison, and their faces gradually showed excitement.
Although he was infected with the blood epidemic, it was almost equivalent to being sentenced to death, but seeing that Grandpa Lu actually risked being infected and came to the camp in person, and even His Majesty and other human supremes were in person, they still saw a glimmer of hope from the endless despair.
At least, the imperial court had no intention of abandoning them at all.
Otherwise, how could such a noble person as Grandpa Lu and His Majesty come to such a dangerous situation where they would get sick and die if they were not careful?
Lu Chen was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, and said:
"You don't want to go to the disposal point, but what are your concerns?"
As he spoke, without waiting for everyone to respond, he continued: "If this is the case, you might as well tell the official all your concerns, and the official can guarantee that as long as it is reasonable, the government will definitely facilitate it and help you solve your worries." ”
"However, no matter what, no matter what the reason, you must obey the arrangement of the imperial court, not only for you, but also to protect the people of the city, and you don't want to kill your compatriots, right?"
Hearing this, everyone was silent for a moment, and then among the seven patients, a middle-aged man trembled and said: "Back to Grandpa Lu, Xiaomin. The people are afraid."
Lu Chen's face was still indifferent.
"Afraid of what?"
The middle-aged man swallowed his saliva and said, "Xiaomin is afraid. I'm afraid that after the disposal point dies, no one will collect the bodies of the small people."
Speaking of this, thinking that he was inexplicably infected with the blood epidemic, he couldn't help but feel sad, and tears oozed from the corners of his eyes.
"Xiaomin knows that he will die if he is infected with the blood epidemic, and he does not dare to ask the government to save Xiaomin, but although Xiaomin's family is poor, he also pays attention to a place to settle for safety, if he goes to the resettlement point, after Xiaomin dies, can his family still collect Xiaomin's body."
"I can't."
Lu Chen answered categorically.
Hearing such an affirmative answer, everyone's expressions changed slightly.
"The blood epidemic is extremely dangerous, even if it is a dead person, it is not a small contagious, it must be dealt with immediately, it is difficult for ordinary people to resist the threat of the epidemic, rash contact with the dead, will only expand the harm of the blood epidemic, you don't want to harm people, right?"
The middle-aged man's eyes instantly dimmed.
"Grandpa Lu, we. Are you doomed to die without a place to be buried?"
Lu Chen shook his head again.
"Definitely."
He looked at the middle-aged man without flinching, and said slowly: "The official just said that ordinary people are not allowed to come into contact with the deceased, not that the deceased will be buried in peace. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and when they looked at Lu Chen, their eyes began to reveal a hint of hope.
"Grandpa Lu, what do you mean?"
Lu Chen didn't sell it, and said bluntly: "For all the victims of the blood epidemic, the government will be responsible for their funerals free of charge, and this official can assure you that there will never be any dead who will be exposed to the wilderness, even if the blood explodes and dies, the government will collect their remains and build tombs." ”
Although Xiao Yun is capable and willing to worry more for the people, there are regulations for the handling of spiritual disasters of this level of blood plague in all dynasties, and many scholars know how to deal with it, how to stop losses, and how to control the harm to a minimum.
This is especially true for people who have been infected with the blood plague.
While it sounds cruel to gather them and leave them to fend for themselves, it's the best solution that countless capable people have tried.
No matter how good Xiao Yun is, it is difficult to detach herself from her own cognition and make other choices.
At most, it is only optimized under the existing framework, and as for the aftermath of the victims, for the vast majority of scholars, it has no meaning at all, and naturally there will be no disposal plan.
Wasting the limited resources of the imperial court for the dead is a loss-making deal no matter how you look at it, and only Lu Chen dares to make such a proposal.
Hearing Lu Chen's assurance, Liu Da and the others felt a little relieved.
The so-called death is like life, in Great Xia, no matter who it is, from the supreme in the world to the peddlers and pawns, no one will not care about what is behind them, Lu Chen can give them this guarantee, and one of their major concerns will be solved in an instant.
Among them, there may be people who don't trust the government, but the people of Xingping County will never trust Lu Chen.
Since Lu Chen said so, the imperial court would never care about what was behind them.
As if he felt that his words were not convincing enough, Lu Chen added: "Even if the imperial court does not act, or no one is willing to deal with the aftermath of the victims of this blood epidemic, this official will personally collect the bodies of the victims and let them rest in peace." ”
Hearing this, everyone was immediately moved.
Liu Da knelt directly on the ground and bowed heavily to Lu Chen.
"Grandpa Lu is benevolent and righteous, Xiaomin believes in you, and is willing to accept all the arrangements of the government without complaints!"
As soon as he bowed, the others also reacted and bowed down one after another.
At this moment, they had only one thought.
In this life, I can meet Grandpa Lu who thinks about them everywhere, makes profits for them, and treats them as good officials, even if he only enjoys a little of his favor, it is worth it.
Jiang Chengwan looked at the people who were kneeling down, and then looked at Lu Chen, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.
Of course, she could see that what Lu Chen said just now was not just to appease people's hearts, but really intended to do so.
He always said he did it.
This is also what he admires the most.
As a king, it is undoubtedly a great blessing for the country to have such excellent courtiers in the court, but she can't be happy.
Lu Chen has the courage to do things and has a strong sense of responsibility, which is naturally excellent, but he is so hard that he doesn't know the truth of making a living, and always puts national affairs above everything.
"When will you learn to think of yourself?"
Jiang Chengwan muttered in her heart, so she didn't think about it anymore, but turned her head, looked at Zhang Yu who didn't know why he was fanatical not far away, and even pressed Lu Chen's face with admiration, and said softly: "Qing Ningwei commander knows where Zhang Yu is?" ”
"Humble duty!"
Zhang Yu subconsciously stood up straight and answered in a loud voice.
Jiang Chengwan looked at him and said indifferently: "Just now Lu Qing's words, you heard them, right?" ”
"Would you like to lead the army to Xipingfang to take charge of this matter?"
Zhang Yu arched his hand.
"If you return to Your Majesty, you are willing to go."
Without a hint of hesitation, he replied crisply.
Even the guards behind him didn't have much fear in their eyes.
Qingning Wei are all elites who were transferred to Beijing from Yuzhou Wei and Sui Zhouwei, and have experienced the floods in Yuzhou and the counterinsurgency in the three provinces, whether it is consciousness or execution ability, or combat power, they are far beyond ordinary armies.
Especially after Zhang Shiping and Su Shuang were trained by Lu Chen, they not only did not commit any crimes with the people, but also asked their subordinates to provide some help to the people from time to time during the march, and they took the lead in wartime and showed compassion for the soldiers.
Such an officer can often be feared by the soldiers.
Therefore, although it was a latecomer, Qingningwei, who completely quelled the rebellion in the three provinces in less than half a year, this guard army with a strong Lu Chen style, and its prestige in the Praetorian Guard was not inferior to the elite of the border army such as Canglingwei.
It's even better than a few points.
Cang Lingwei may retreat in the face of the blood epidemic, but Qing Ningwei will not.
What's more, Lu Chen, the actual founder of Qingningwei, was on the side, how could they hesitate for half a minute?
"Good!"
Jiang Chengwan smiled slightly.
"With such a responsibility, he is worthy of being the son of General Zhang, and sure enough, the tiger father has no dog."
In a few words, the matter was settled.
Moreover, Jiang Chengwan also specially instructed that this matter should be a regulation for dealing with the blood epidemic, rather than a special treatment for Liu Da and others.
Without worries, Liu Da and the others suddenly looked a lot more relaxed.
They did not resist any longer, but obediently followed behind the Qingningwei soldiers, preparing to leave the temporary camp.
Before leaving, Liu Da suddenly stopped, and then hesitated slightly, but still asked Lu Chen quite unwillingly: "Grandpa Lu, Xiaomin. Is there a chance to come back alive? ”
"Xiaomin's son was born, and his mother-in-law is still in confinement, and the vitality of the family is all counting on Xiaomin.
Speaking of this, he couldn't speak anymore, and he looked like he couldn't cry.
He is an ordinary person, and he is naturally afraid of death.
But what he is more afraid of is that after his death, his mother-in-law and newborn child will be cut off from cooking and have no livelihood, what will he do in the future?
If there was the slightest chance to live, he would definitely seize it desperately.
If nothing else, for the sake of his family, he also had to fight hard to survive.
However, Lu Chen shook his head.
"I'm sorry, but I don't know."
This time, however, he gave an ambiguous answer.
"How terrible the blood plague is, I don't think I need to be reminded by this official, and you are also clear, so this official can't guarantee that he can save every one of you."
Liu Da tugged at the corners of his mouth, his face full of bitterness.
"Still."
After being silent for a moment, Lu Chen spoke again.
"This official can guarantee that the imperial court will do its best to treat all those who are sick."
"No matter how precious the elixir is, or a large number of spirit stones and mythril, no matter how much it costs, as long as there are materials in the treasury that can come in handy, the imperial court will definitely take them all out to heal you, and you will never be stingy."
These words were like a heart booster, instantly planting a seed of hope in Liu Da's heart.
In other words, even if they go to Xipingfang, the disposal point, as long as they still have a breath of air, the imperial court will not ignore them
At this moment, including Liu Da, a strong desire to survive emerged in the depths of everyone's hearts.
"As long as it's my Great Xia people."
Lu Chen took his hands and said categorically: "The imperial court will not abandon it." ”
