Chapter 364 Rumours Renew
  The next morning.

Ying Tianfu was officially released and everything returned to normal.

In addition, Fu Yin led many policemen, government officials, etc. to guide people to go out for normal activities, resume markets and transactions, etc.

After struggling for such a long time, those people who had been locked up and had not been out for a long time cheered with excitement when they walked out of the closed area, and walked out of their homes one after another to meet their friends.

The sound of cheers echoed everywhere in the city.

Many shops are opening their doors one after another and can finally reopen.

The people walked around the city excitedly. Those who went to the Qinhuai River went to the Qinhuai River, those who set up stalls, those who went out of the city, and the farmers outside the city picked up their hoes and went to the fields.

Now that the ice and snow have melted, it is already spring. Farming must officially begin and the fields must be loosened first, otherwise they will go hungry in the second half of the year.

In addition, the imperial court has long spread the news that this year they will be given a batch of seeds for high-yielding crops, as well as something called chemical fertilizer, which can be used to replace farmyard manure and can also greatly increase production.

The farmers were quite interested in these things and looked forward to them. Not long after they went to work in the fields, the government distributed new high-yielding seeds and taught them how to cultivate and plant them.

Farming is being carried out with great enthusiasm.

However, the people of Yingtian still had a certain fear of smallpox.

After all, the isolation camp is right next to them. There are still many seriously ill patients who have not recovered, and the smallpox virus is still there. Many people who are afraid of death now regret why they were taken into custody at that time.

Now I want to buy cowpox, but the free ones are no longer available. I have no choice but to pay for it myself. Ordinary people spend 100 Hongwu Tongbao to buy a serving of cowpox. I don’t know how distressed it is.

As for merchants and dignitaries, they don't believe in cowpox for one hundred pennies. They are more afraid of death, so they buy the kind that costs one hundred taels.

After all, they have money and can afford it.

Those rhythmic words had long been forgotten by them, because they saw hospital doctors and ordinary soldiers dared to walk into the isolation camp without any protection, which showed that cowpox was definitely effective.

However, while spending money to make an appointment for cowpox, some less harmonious sounds appeared.

"Have you ever heard of something?"

"what's up?"

"It is said that the little emperor's grandson asked people from the hospital to bring back those smallpox viruses. The purpose was to spread the virus so that they could sell their cowpox and make money."

"The emergence of smallpox was a man-made disaster, not a natural disaster."

"Isn't it? I think that little emperor's grandson is very kind to us!"

"He's such a fart!"

"They are all just nice on the surface. They are secretly watching our money. If they are nice to you, they will make you pay for cowpox. It is not easy for him to earn back the money he paid."

"That imperial grandson is actually such a person?"

"Who says otherwise? Master Hongwu was a good man. He drove away the Tatars and made us Han people live a good life, but his grandson is definitely not a good thing. The little emperor's grandson is very bad."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Cowpox was originally free, but I only charged money when you made a fuss and made the little grandson angry."

"That's not the case! The little emperor's grandson gave us food and clothing. Like Master Hong Wu, he is also a good person."

"Good guy? Pull him down!"

"If he was a good person, he shouldn't charge so much money."

"I heard that the virus was really brought back by the little emperor's grandson. It was a smallpox patient's clothes. He brought it back to the hospital from the grassland and then deliberately leaked it out in order to steal money."

"You don't want your life? If the Jin Yiwei hears it, they will all be sent to prison!"

……

They talked a lot.

But when they heard the words "Jinyiwei", they all became frightened, shut up and did not dare to speak anymore.

Everyone present knew how terrifying Jin Yiwei was.

It's just that the relevant rumors are spreading not only here, but also starting to spread widely to the outside world, and more and more people know about it.

The people sent by Wang Du and others to inquire about the news heard this and hurried back to report it.

The civil servants immediately became excited after hearing this.

The opportunity has come again.

They're OK again. At this time, Zhu Xuan was not aware of the rumors that were detrimental to him.

Lao Zhu asked him to stay in the palace and not go out, fearing that the White Lotus Sect really had other plans.

-

Zhu Song now has a headache.

The merchants who had been forced to confiscate food by the imperial court all came to the Daming Bookstore to ask for an explanation.

If he were just an ordinary businessman, Zhu Song wouldn't have a headache.

But there are also some businessmen below the rank of nobles who are not so easy to deal with.

At that time, prices were soaring, and Zhu Song levied food and other goods at the original price. They were not convinced.

Some of them are Zhu Song's eldest sisters.

Lao Zhu's daughter.

It's even harder to deal with.

They used their identities to suppress Zhu Song.

"Everyone, please stop making noise and be quiet!"

Zhu Song was really impatient and roared: "Yin Chengwen, go tell Yan Guan and bring the Jin Yiwei over. Whoever dares to cause trouble next will be captured and taken to the imperial prison."

"Zhu Song, how dare you!"

Princess Lin'an was the first to shout angrily.

She married Li Qi, Li Shanchang's son.

Li Shanchang has long since disappeared, and Li Qi has been exiled. Of course Princess Lin'an will not follow her to those places where birds don't shit, and she will stay in Yingtian.

She owns a grain store.

All the food inside was taken away by Zhu Song.

"My sister, I don't want to either!"

Zhu Song said helplessly: "My father feels guilty. He has always been very kind to you and given you a lot of preferential treatment. If you don't want to suffer a loss, you can go to your father. As long as your father speaks, you can do whatever you want, but without my father's permission The will, I have the final say here.”

"Okay, just wait for me!"

Princess Lin'an was suppressed by Zhu Yuanzhang, but she was still unconvinced.

She would not just let this matter go. She had to find someone to help her seek justice. She would definitely not dare to go to Lao Zhu.

Seeing her leaving, the others hesitated and dispersed one after another. In fact, they were afraid of the Jinyiwei. If they were captured and sent to prison, even if they could come out, they would still have to lose a layer of skin.

After driving away the merchants, Zhu Song wiped the sweat from his forehead.

The pressure is still quite high, but the next pressure will be on Zhu Xuan. With the support of his father, there should be no problem.

During the epidemic prevention period, they invested so much.

Now that he has settled down, Zhu Song still needs to figure out how much the factory and Daming Bookstore have lost.

It's not easy to make money back.

-

Wang Du and the others got all kinds of news, compiled them, and then went to the palace to see Zhu Yunzhen.

"What His Highness said is indeed spreading outside."

Wang Du said with confidence: "Your Highness, please rest assured, we all know what to do next, and we promise not to disappoint Your Highness."

Zhu Yunwen sighed: "I can only rely on you now."

Wang Du solemnly said: "We will definitely help His Highness regain everything we have lost. This time, we will first deprive the little emperor's grandson of his contribution. But I still have a question. How true is the news spread outside?"

Zhu Yunwen said: "As long as you confront Liu Chun, you will know that it is true that they really brought back clothes with smallpox virus."

In this way, everything is stable.
