Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 528 The Emperor Has Two Kinds of Sons

After the fall, there was a burst of rain and a burst of coolness, but the rain of this day was more like a madness that was finally confirmed after several days of brewing.

Therefore, it was no surprise that the downpour engulfed the entire Daxing City.

When they finished dealing with the matter in front of them for the time being and returned to the Duke's Mansion, it was already late at night, and the news of the plague had already spread here. A strong smell of burning moxa.

It was Aunt Hui who was instructing everyone in the family to burn Ai Liaoxun.

It was raining heavily, and the air was full of the fishy smell of rainwater, mixed with the smell of burning moxa, which made people almost breathless, but Aunt Hui was not sloppy, and ordered everyone to hold umbrellas, even in the corners. To be smoked.

Not only that, she also closed several side doors of the house in advance, and also restricted the actions of the servants. Earlier, she prepared hot water boiled with herbs for the several masters to use for bathing.

Seeing her so powerful, Yu Wenyuan nodded with satisfaction, and still ordered: "People in the family, don't go out of the house for a few days. Once you find a patient, report it immediately and send it to Yanzuofang for treatment. Don't favoritism. .”

Aunt Hui hurriedly replied, "Yes."

Hearing the words Yan Zuo Fang, Shang Ruyi's eyes flickered slightly.

But she didn't say anything, and Yu Wenyuan had already turned his head, facing Yu Wenzhen, Yu Wenye said to her: "Okay, I've been busy for a day today, you go down and rest—tonight, it may be your next one." It's the only night I can sleep well."

Several people immediately leaned over and said, "Yes."

So, everyone split up and went back to their respective rooms.

Pushing open the door, a puff of smoke, wrapped in a strong smell of medicine, rushed towards the face, and Shang Ruyi, who had been accustomed to smelling the smell of medicine along the way, coughed lightly twice, and the two blurred figures immediately Jumped out from the room: "Miss, Uncle, you are back!"

It was Tusher and Wo Xue.

The faces of the two were also covered with a veil, and they were holding wormwood that was still glowing with sparks. Their eyes were also red, obviously suffocated by the smoke.

Shang Ruyi said, "Why does the smell here smell so much better than outside?"

Walking in while talking, reaching out to wipe the tip of the nose from time to time, Tushe'er and the others hurriedly extinguished the wormwood, and said: "Aunt Hui and the others had someone fumigate them once, but the slaves were worried, so they did it again. once."

Wo Xue also nodded: "The residence of the Second Young Master and Young Madam can't be sloppy."

"Where's Chang Wan?"

"The servant also gave her some wormwood, and she went to smoke the human room."

Because I used to do this thing every day when I was in Fufeng, but now I am familiar with it. Shang Ruyi knew that they could not trust Aunt Hui, but they were too careful in doing so. Things are different, if something really happens in the mansion, how can the rest of the people not be in danger?
So Shang Ruyi waved his hand and told them to back off.

She and Yu Wenye only rested and sat for a while, and then went to the bathroom to take a bath respectively. After washing off the dust and fatigue from their bodies, and returning to the room, most of the lights in the Duke's Mansion were also extinguished.The night was dark, and a little residual medicinal fragrance permeated the heavy rain, and the sound of the rain was like a waterfall, adding a bit of worry to people's hearts invisible.

Shang Ruyi sat in front of the dressing table and asked Tusheer to comb her long wet hair neatly, while Yu Wenye sat in front of the couch beside him, drinking the tea brought by Chang Wan, frowning slightly, if there was any Thoughts.

Obviously, neither of them planned to go to bed immediately.

After a while, I heard footsteps in the rain outside, and it was Mu who came to report today's affairs.

He stood at the door and took off his heavy coir raincoat, then walked into the room with a wet body, bowed to Yu Wenye and Shang Ruyi, and said, "Second son, young lady, those who are guarding outside the city now The sick villagers have all entered the city, some of them were taken to Changlefang for temporary resettlement, there are nearly 200 people, and they are all in serious condition."

Yu Wenye said: "Changle Square has been emptied, how is the situation in the workshop?"

Mu Xiandao: "Changle Square is close to the city gate, and the epidemic situation is relatively serious. When the subordinates send people to clear the city, there are already many sick people inside, but not many people have been cleared out."

"Where are these people placed?"

"The subordinates placed them in Da'an Square. If there are any more patients, they can be sent back immediately."

"Hmm. What about the situation in other cities in the West City?"

"The people from Youweiwei have gathered patients from all the squares and cities in Xicheng together, but their subordinates and Cheng Qiao were worried, so they sent more people to search again. Now, except for Changle Square, no other patients have been seen in Xicheng for the time being. Suffering."

"How many patients are accommodated in Changle Square now?"

"Two thousand one hundred and fifty four people."

"..."

Yu Wenye frowned, but said nothing, but Shang Ruyi's breathing couldn't help but sink.

She made a rough estimate in the Tai Chi Hall today. It is estimated that there should be 3000 to 2000 patients in the city this time. Unexpectedly, the actual situation is even worse. There are more than [-] patients in the west city alone.

She subconsciously wanted to ask, but it was not easy to ask directly, but Mu Xian was very knowledgeable, so he said, "The number in Dongcheng is unknown, but I sent someone to inquire, and it seems that there are more than 2000 people."

Yu Wenye's complexion was heavy, and he waved his hand: "Okay, I understand."

Mu Xian saluted and was about to step back when Shang Ruyi immediately stopped him and asked, "Mu Xian, do you know the origin of those people who went to the city to seek medical treatment?"

Mu Xian immediately said: "My subordinates also asked, most of them are from the villagers in the southwest of Daxing City, but there are also some from farther places."

"Further away? Where?"

"It's west of Daxing, near Fufeng County."

Speaking of this, he took a heavy tone, looked up at Shang Ruyi and Yu Wenye, and said, "That is, the deserted village we found on the way back from Fufeng."

Yu Wenye's eyes flashed: "Where is it?"

"Yes,"

Mu Xian continued: "I heard from those people that some people in their village began to fall ill and died. It was during the Fufeng War, but they couldn't figure out the reason. They only knew that the people who drank the water from the river They all contracted the wind and cold, and the medicine didn't help, but the condition became more serious. In the end, the patient had a headache, abdominal pain and diarrhea, until he vomited blood and died."

"..."

"These people thought that they would be punished for provoking some god. In order to survive, they had to relocate and left the village."

"..."

"Later, they drifted to the villages in the southwest of Daxing City, and even infected the people there with the plague. Some of them went to the city to seek medical treatment - the diseases in the city should be infected by them; People outside the city have died a lot in the past few days, they have nothing to do but burn their bodies every night..."

Hearing this, Shang Ruyi took a deep breath.

Yu Wenye turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"

Shang Ruyi said sadly: "Two nights ago, I had been vaguely seeing a red light outside the window. At that time, I thought I was wrong. It turned out that people outside the city were burning corpses."

When she thought that they only cared about their own success or failure, but the people outside the city had been tortured like that by the epidemic, and even burned their bodies every night, her heart felt like a needle prick.

In fact, since she heard the Golden Dragon Drum today and knew that the plague had spread in Daxing City, she had completely pieced together the truth of the whole incident, but now that she really heard the truth, she still couldn't help but feel a little sad and painful in her heart.

The plague, the disease that almost killed Yu Wenye, finally spread.

And the source is the Jingguan built by Xue Xian.

The Jingguan built by the corpses of [-] Fufeng guards was so tragic that it was unbearable to look directly at it. At the same time, it polluted the water of Xiaolin River. The plague was not diluted, and it flowed to that village, causing the plague to be infected by those who drank the water. These people were so terrified that they could only leave their homes, but they also brought the disease to Daxing City and beyond.

Now, it is even more in line with the sentence - when the stars appear, disasters arise.

A battle of Fufeng had killed and injured so many people, but it was unexpected that after the tragic war, there would be a terrible epidemic waiting for these innocent people.

In troubled times, don't be human...

Yu Wenye also sighed softly, but he didn't indulge in that emotion, he just quietly listened to Mu Xian's report, and then asked: "How is the situation in the barracks outside the city?"

Mu Xian immediately said: "Second Young Master, you can rest assured that there is no epidemic disease in the army yet."

Yu Wenye nodded, and then ordered: "Strict guards, they are not allowed to go out of the barracks these days, but they must not relax in daily drills, and I will send someone else to deliver food and water."

Mu Xiandao: "This subordinate understands. This subordinate should go and spread the word."

Seeing that he was about to leave after saluting, Shang Ruyi immediately said, "Mu Xian, wait a moment."

Mu Xian hurriedly stopped: "What else can you order, Young Madam?"

Shang Ruyi winked at Tusheer, Tusheer nodded, and immediately went down to get a bag of things and handed it to him, Mu Xian opened it to see, inside were several items that Yu Wenzhen gave to him when he was in Fufeng before. Shang Ruyi's veil that covers the mouth and nose.

Mu Xian was startled: "This is—"

Tusheer smiled and said, "Miss ordered me to rush out last night, because it was too urgent, so there are not many. Brother Mu, you and Brother Cheng, as well as Shan Tong'er, Brother Shen, Nie Chong and the others all Share it first, wait for us to make more in the mansion, and then send it to you, so that all your subordinates can use it."

Shang Ruyi also nodded, and said, "If your subordinates want to guard Changle Square, they must also protect themselves."

Mu Xian immediately said: "Thank you, Young Madam."

After speaking, he took the burden and left.

Tu She'er had finished trimming Shang Ruyi's hair, and she wanted to leave, but Shang Ruyi asked again: "Last night, I asked you to sort out the herbs that I bought earlier, have you finished it?"

Tushe'er hurriedly said: "The maidservant has sorted it out. Those medicinal materials are well kept without any loss."

Shang Ruyi nodded, and said: "Let Jiang Kesheng and the others send more people to guard the batch of medicinal materials. Loss is the second priority. The most important thing is to prevent theft and theft, understand?"

Tusheer's eyes lit up, she came back to her senses immediately, and said immediately: "Your servant understands."

After speaking, he turned around and hurried down.

It's past midnight, but the heavy rain outside has not stopped, but is falling like crazy. The bean-sized raindrops hit the windows and the roof, and the crackling sound is endless, which seems to indicate that there is nothing they can do this night. Spend peacefully.

Amidst the messy sound of rain, Yu Wenye said: "The medicines you mentioned are—"

Shang Ruyi turned her head: "It's the medicine that I asked Tusheer to take Jiang Kesheng and the others out of Tongguan before."

"..."

"At that time, Tushe'er brought a pack to Fufeng and cured your illness. Although the remaining medicine is temporarily useless, I still let them keep it."

"..."

"I didn't expect it to come in handy."

She spoke very plainly, as if she was really just doing a simple thing, but who would have imagined how powerful this seemingly ordinary arrangement would be!
Yu Wenye said: "It turns out that you have already prepared."

Shang Ruyi sighed, and said, "Actually, I was in Fufeng before. After you recovered from your illness, I have been worrying about this matter—the plague. I have never heard of only one person getting sick."

"..."

"But later, I didn't hear that the epidemic was spreading wildly. I thought it was God's kindness."

"..."

"But I didn't expect that the real disaster is here."

Hearing this, Yu Wenye couldn't help but frowned, and said: "If it's true that the water of Xiaolin River was polluted by that Jingguan, causing the villagers in the downstream to contract the disease, then, the people downstream—"

Shang Ruyi immediately said: "You don't need to worry about this."

"Oh why?"

"At that time, the disease in the river was too severe, because it was very close to Jingguan, and there was a month of drought in Fufeng, and there was no rain. I think that the disease should also be diluted."

"..."

"Otherwise, the downstream villages and towns should have reported the epidemic long ago."

Yu Wenye nodded: "That's true."

"..."

"so now--"

Shang Ruyi looked up at him and said, "So right now, our most important thing is the immediate problem, the disease and patients in West City."

"..."

The light in Yu Wenye's eyes suddenly flashed.

However, both he and Shang Ruyi understood that there was one more thing she didn't say, that is, they needed to get rid of the epidemic faster and earlier than Dongcheng.

Today in front of the Tai Chi Hall, Yu Wenyuan's last words seemed to be an understatement, but they were more earth-shattering than the thunder that exploded above his head. You must know that as soon as this plague is over, he will be able to take over the imperial power logically and ascend the throne as emperor. As for his sons, their status naturally changed with his changes, almost reaching the sky in one step.

In this case, the words "heavy rewards" have no deep meaning.

After all, the emperor's son is already rich and powerful, almost sitting on the world, especially Yu Wenjian and Yu Wenye are not ordinary playboys, the "heavy reward" for them is to go further in status!
Because, the emperor has two kinds of sons——

One is the prince.

One is the prince!
