Empress, she doesn't want to fight

Chapter 223 An Epidemic Occurs
Yu Rong glanced at Xie Liangcai who was looking forward to it, nodded, and said, "The princess likes it very much, and she also said that she would wear the hairpin to show the emperor."

Xie Liangcai laughed happily when he heard the words, "It's as long as the princess likes it. I've been picking out the hairpin for a long time, but I'm afraid the princess won't like it."

Seeing that he was happy, Yu Rong continued: "Master Xie, go back quickly. The princess is busy copying Buddhist scriptures for the emperor these days. I guess I won't have time to see Mr. Xie for a while."

Xie Liangcai nodded, "Thank you Miss Yurong for reminding me, then I will not bother Miss Yurong to go to work."

Yu Rong smiled, "Master Xie, go slowly."

Seeing Xie Liangcai walking away, Yu Rong turned her gaze away and went to her own business.

The terracotta figurine doll that Xie Liangcai gave to the third princess was sent to the second prince on the same day.

The second prince was very happy to receive the terracotta figurine doll sent by the third princess on his way from school, and he carried it all the way back to Yunhua Palace.

"Mother!" The second prince ran towards Jiang Man's room as soon as he entered Yunhua Palace.

Jiang Man put down the book in her hand, looked up at the second prince, and said with a smile, "You're back? What are you talking about in your hand, Nuo'er and the others didn't come today?"

The second prince smiled and said: "Mother forgot, we don't have to go to school tomorrow, my cousin and Zhou Zhen have gone home."

After speaking, the second prince showed Jiang Man the terracotta figurine doll in his hand, "Mother, is it good-looking? Miss Sanhuang gave it to me, and she said it was given to her by Mrs. Xie. She thought I would like it, so she deliberately gave it to me. Someone brought it to me."

Jiang Man's eyebrows moved slightly, "Who told you that this was given to you by Mrs. Xie?"

The second prince said: "The little maid next to the third sister said so."

"Oh." Jiang Man nodded, and said: "Since it was given to you by your third sister, then you should put it away carefully, are you hungry?"

The second prince nodded heavily, "Hungry... Mom, I want to eat some snacks."

Jiang Man tapped the second prince's head lightly, shook her head and said, "Don't even think about it, wash your hands and eat when you're hungry."

"Okay." The second prince lowered his head in disappointment.

But when he finished washing his hands, he was happy again when he saw several dishes he liked on the table.

After the meal, the second prince teased the third prince who was quietly eating his own food. The third prince was so annoyed that he finally called him "Brother" before going back to do his homework.

After entering June, there have been several heavy rains in the capital, and the temperature has not been too high, but the air is very humid, which does not make people feel very comfortable.

The originally planned summer vacation was completely ruined by the continuous heavy rain.

Jiang Man sat by the window and looked at the stagnant water on the ground outside, feeling a little worried in her heart.

Wan Dong handed the brewed tea to Jiang Man's hand, looked at Jiang Man's frowning brows, and asked, "Is the master in a bad mood?"

Jiang Man took a sip of the hot tea in Wan Dong's hand, and said: "The imperial palace is already on a relatively high ground in Beijing, and now even the stagnant water in the palace is so deep, you can imagine it elsewhere. "

Wan Dong said: "It rains a little more this summer, and it has been raining for more than half of this month."

"Yeah." Jiang Man glanced at the gray sky and sighed. The most important thing is that the day doesn't look like it's going to be sunny at all.

Emperor Yong'an has been frowning all this time, and he has endless political affairs to deal with every day. Jiang Man feels that Emperor Yong'an should be as worried as she is. If the sky continues like this, sooner or later Something will happen.

But even if they knew that something would happen sooner or later if the sky went down like this, Emperor Yong'an and Jiang Man couldn't block the sky, they could only let the sky keep pattering down.

It rained until July and it still didn't clear up. What Jiang Man was worried about happened. Many counties and counties around the capital had collapsed houses and flooded farmland. Withstood the continuous rain.

There are relatively few people whose houses collapsed in the capital, and there are large shelters, so the people will not be displaced.However, most of the houses in the prefectures and counties around the capital collapsed and the farmland was flooded. Although the government came forward in time, there were too many people and the government was too busy for a while. This caused the people around the capital to complain, and a large number of displaced victims went to The capital is coming.

Emperor Yong'an ordered people to build a refugee center outside the capital city to accommodate the refugees in the surrounding area, and sent troops and officials from central Beijing to help the counties and counties around the capital city. Finally, the situation was temporarily stabilized, but the continuous heavy rain made many The refugees were all infected with the disease, and a large number of people began to have symptoms such as fever, vomiting and diarrhea.

The person in charge of the refugee center immediately reported it as soon as they found out. Emperor Yong'an ordered famous doctors in Beijing to be summoned, even the imperial physicians in the palace were dispatched, but so many famous doctors were helpless against this epidemic.

The only thing that is certain is that this epidemic is highly contagious, and the most important thing now is to isolate these people who have the epidemic and those who have been in contact with them.

The outbreak of the epidemic made the victims of the refugee center very panic. Many people who were afraid of death ignored the obstruction and wanted to drill into the capital. They thought that the capital was where the emperor was, and as long as they entered the capital, they would be safe.

The people in Beijing are also panicked, for fear that some victims of the epidemic will run into the capital. Many people choose to stay behind closed doors. The streets in Beijing, where there were few people due to the continuous heavy rain, are nothing. People are crowded, many shops are closed, and the prices of many daily necessities such as rice, noodles, and vegetables have increased. However, with the control of the government, the price increase of rice, noodles, and grains is not outrageous, just because of the food outside the city. Meat and other things can't come in, and things like vegetables and meat can't be bought even if money is available for a while.

Jiang Man and the second prince were in the palace, but they did not lack a bite of vegetables and meat, but compared to their usual meals, their daily food standards had indeed dropped a lot.Jiang Man knew the situation outside, so she didn't have the trouble of saying anything or finding a dining room. Even the second prince took the initiative to tell Jiang Man to eat less food after Mr. Mei told them the current situation, and put the rest Something for those in need.

But there are some people in the palace who are not even as good as children like the second prince. At this juncture, there is someone who can't figure it out because of the reduced diet. Their due salary was deducted.

Lianqiu saw that Jiang Man was not in a good mood these days, so she deliberately told Jiang Man about it, "Concubine Xian is not a vegetarian either, she directly had Xia Baolin tied up and sent to Qianning Palace .”
