Liu Zhang knew very well that if they were not given medicine, the epidemic spread rapidly.

A lot of people will die, and their diseases should have been cured.

If they are allowed to exchange what they are waiting for, they will be in their current state of poverty.

You can't take it out at all, but you can't save them from death.

On the tenth day of the first month of March, more than ten days have passed since the spread of the epidemic in Honghou Kingdom.

The red marquis fruit blight was effectively controlled, and those who were sick received free symptomatic medicines.

Due to the timely control measures, it did not spread to the periphery of the Red Marquis.

The spread of the epidemic caused more than 1,500 people in the Red Marquis Kingdom to die of illness.

Many of them were in their fifties, and children under the age of 10.

There were also people with weaker resistance, whose lives were claimed by plague and malaria.

Despite the timely distribution of medicines, the elderly and infirm children did not survive.

Wang Shuo and others also explained that because they are either too old or too young.

Their own resistance is not strong, and these two epidemics are fierce.

Don't question that the medicines dispensed don't work, and don't resent Honghou.

Most people can still understand, at least many survived.

The recovery of serious illnesses was slower, and the Honghou Mansion successively distributed food and medicine.

They obeyed the command of the Honghou Mansion and were a little skeptical at first.

But gradually, they found out that they listened to Honghou's arrangement.

Yes, some people who had malaria and plague recovered.

They were quarantined, and the recovered group was undoubtedly the happiest.

They were so grateful to the Red Marquis that they discussed crowdfunding to build a shrine for the Red Marquis.

From time to time, they go to burn incense and bow down to pray for the blessings of the Red Marquis, which is one of the ways they express their gratitude to the Red Marquis.

Honghou's selfless help, they feel that something should be reciprocated.

They wanted to surprise Liu Zhang, although everyone was not rich.

In order to repay the favor, they have the money to contribute and the power to contribute.

Liu Zhang didn't know that they built a shrine for him, and he didn't stop them.

This is also their intention, Liu Zhangke has been busy recently.

The epidemic in Honghou was well controlled, and all counties in Pei County sent people to ask Liu Zhang for help.

"The twenty-two counties of Pei County have sent people to ask you for help, and please make it clear."

Liu Zhang was laughed at angrily, and received a reply from those nobles and wealthy businessmen a few days ago.

They all had their own reasons, in short, they just didn't help him.

"Hehe, that's when you think of me. I didn't help Honghou Guo a few days ago, why help them. ”

As long as they manage their own feudal country, let them take care of the epidemic diseases in other counties and counties.

Liu Zhang had already blacklisted those nobles and wealthy businessmen, don't think he is very talkative.

Ignoring them, the Red Marquis gradually developed in a better direction. Recently, I have to keep an eye on those monks, if they dare to pretend to be ghosts, they will drive me out of the Red Marquis Country. ”

Recently, some alchemists were arrested and beaten with bamboo boards.

He was not afraid of offending those monks, he thought he was doing the right thing.

"Marquis, someone from Chang'an is here." Wang Shuo stood outside the study to report.

The imperial court has been paying attention to the Red Marquis and is very satisfied with the performance of the Red Marquis.

It must have come to reward the meritorious, which was expected by Liu Zhang.

"Your Majesty must have sent someone to reward everyone." Liu Zhang was looking forward to it.

Then go to greet the messenger from Chang'an, this is the first time Liu Zhang has met with the people from Chang'an since he crossed.

I was a little nervous, but I was also a little excited.

My efforts during this period of time have not been in vain.

Chen Yun and Xu Xuan walked over to Liu Zhang, and they were completely recovered.

In the first few days of their illness, they needed to be taken care of.

During the illness, it was particularly uncomfortable, and Liu Zhang took care of them personally.

The two of them have an infinite level of favorability towards Liu Zhang, and the two of them have been loyal to him and never abandon him in this life.

If Liu Zhang hadn't given them special medicine, they would have passed away long ago.

The other day the two of them were so moved that they cried, they thought they were going to die.

A small cold and fever can kill people, not to mention a terrible epidemic.

"Ah Lang, the two of us have recovered completely, and I can serve you again in the future." Xu Mian smiled excitedly.

If there was no one else here, she and Chen Yun really wanted to throw themselves into Liu Zhang's arms.

"Congratulations on your recovery, and we'll talk about the rest later, we're going to meet the angel sent by His Majesty."

Angels were envoys sent by the emperor, equivalent to ministers in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

The name of the angel appears in the Left Biography. Three Years of Xuan Gong", perhaps appeared in an earlier era.

The arrival of the messenger may bring a document to pardon Xu Mian as a maidservant.

More than half a month ago, Liu Zhang wrote a recital to Liu Che.

Asking for pardon for Xu Zhang's slave status, Liu Zhang offered the flawless piece of jade to Liu Che.

"We are also going to meet the angel, who must have brought with him an edict from His Majesty to reward you."

Chen Yun also wanted to see if the messenger seemed to know.

"Come with me, you two, and try to talk as little as you see the angel."

After all, the other party was sent by the emperor, so there are fewer words and fewer mistakes.

Liu Zhang led his group to the outside of the Honghou Mansion and saw a troika in front of him.

It can be seen that the other party's status in the DPRK is not low, and Liu Zhang's eyes fell on a young military attaché.

He did not wear armor, but he had an air of heroic might.

With a ring hand sword hanging from his waist and a leather belt on his head, it can be determined that the other party is a military attache with a high rank.

Out of the carriage came a middle-aged man dressed in black, holding a purple edict.

He wears a crown on his head and a blue ribbon on his body.

Carry a sac with a seal on it, which is a proof and symbol of identity.

Liu Zhang and the others greeted the envoy sent by the emperor, but he didn't know the middle-aged man in front of him very well.

"We welcome the angels!" Liu Zhang bowed to Gongsun Du.

Gongsun Du held the edict in both hands, and it was inconvenient to return the salute, so as not to be disrespectful.

"The Marquis personally greets him, and this envoy is the Imperial History Zhongcheng, Gongsun Du. This envoy is holding His Majesty's edict, and it is inconvenient to return the courtesy, so please forgive me. ”

"Please ask the angel to enter the Honghou Mansion to talk to you." Liu Zhang made a gesture of please.

Liu Zhang has to strictly follow etiquette at the moment, the ancient etiquette is really troublesome.

It is also a very serious matter, to complete the task of sending the Red Marquis State.

He also had to go to Nanyue to convey the emperor's edict.

"What is the name of the general on horseback?" Liu Zhang asked Gongsun Du.

"This is Li Kang, the captain of the light cavalry, and he is the son of Li Guang." Gongsun Du concisely introduced Li Kang.

Li Dang saluted Liu Zhang, this time escorting Gongsun Du to the Kingdom of Nanyue.

By the way, he received a letter from Liu Zhang.

One of his slaves escaped, and learned that Lan Xuan had escaped to the Red Marquis Kingdom.

This time it was to take Lan Xuan away, and Li Dang would give Liu Zhang some compensation.

"The lowly received a letter from the prince, and the lowly took the opportunity to take the fugitive slave with him."

"Can Captain Li sell him to me, the price is negotiable."

"The fugitive slave's name is Lan Xuan, and he is unruly. Staying with the lord may be harmful. ”

If it was an honest slave, Li Dang would naturally sell it to him.

If Liu Zhang was injured by Lan Xuan, Li Kang might be punished.

"Captain Li really won't sell him to me." Liu Zhang tried his best to convince Li Kang.

"Please also ask the Marquis for forgiveness, the humble position is not sold, please the Honorable Marquis hand him over to the humble position."

Li Dang's attitude is resolute, it seems that he can't buy it this time.

"Captain Li, can you give me face? Sell me the fugitive slave. ”

Liu Ling came to everyone, and she planned to buy Lan Xuan.

If you give it to Liu Zhang again, you don't believe that Li dares not to give her face.

"Lord Huainan Weng is also here, it's not that he doesn't give face. It's just that the Tao Nu is difficult to tame, whether it is to stay with the lord of Weng. It is very dangerous to stay with the Marquis. ”

Li Dang, in order to consider their safety, insisted on refusing to sell Lan Xuan to them.

Li Dang still knows Lan Xuan, and if he takes him back this time, he must punish him well in front of all the slaves.

Xu Mian was extremely nervous in his heart, once his younger brother was taken away.

That's also a life of nine deaths, and there will be no chance to see each other again in the future.

"Captain Li, he is the younger brother of the servant. also asked Captain Li to take pity on the servant and sell the servant's younger brother to Ah Lang. ”

Xu Jian asked Li Dang, and Li Dang's eyes fell on Xu Xuan.

Xu Jian is tall and delicate, which makes Li Kang's heart flutter.

Xu Xuan didn't dare to look directly at Li Kang's gaze, worried that Li Dang would take a fancy to her.

"You are also a Hunn, is he really your own brother?" Li dared to ask Xu Xuan.

The people present were a little shocked, they thought that Xu Jian was Han.

"The servant is indeed a Hun and a lowly person, and I ask Captain Li to take pity on the servant."

"If you don't sell it, it's like you haven't met him. Don't hurt the prince, you have to know who you are. ”

Li Dang still refused, of course he wouldn't buy Xu Xuan like Liu Zhang.
