Fortunately, Yu Cheng really couldn't say the word.
But the people smiled and nodded: "We are fine. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness."
Natural disasters cannot be resisted by human beings. When this happened, the court came to the rescue in time and Yu Cheng personally came to provide relief, which made them extremely grateful.
Moreover, even though he knew that the epidemic was about to break out, Yu Cheng did not retreat to Beijing, nor did he shrink into his mansion. Instead, he went on patrol every day without fear of hardships and dangers, which makes people sincerely admire him.
"Do you still have enough rice? Are you in good health?" Yu Cheng asked carefully.
This natural disaster has lasted for nearly two months. The people are barely surviving on gruel. They are all sallow, thin, weak, and extremely susceptible to diseases.
But at the moment, he has no better way. He can only let them live first, survive the epidemic, rebuild their houses, and return to normal life.
"It's enough, I can still eat for several days. I'm in good health and don't have any ailments. Your Highness the Crown Prince doesn't have to worry." The people replied with a smile, not letting Yu Cheng worry.
In fact, they only drink one or two meals of porridge every day, and they dare not put in an extra grain.
It's not that the court doesn't care about them, it's that there are too many victims and they are powerless.
"Okay, if you run out of food, report it to the government and supply it in time." Yu Cheng smiled at the child who woke up and rubbed his eyes, and moved away.
"Your Highness, take care of yourself." The people waved goodbye and asked with concern.
The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Now Yu Cheng is their sky and their hope.
Therefore, Yu Cheng cannot fall.
Under the warm sunshine, Yu Cheng and Shen Changze came to another shack, where people infected with the epidemic lived.
"Ahem..." You can hear coughing and wheezing one after another without getting closer.
Yu Cheng called the resident doctor to inquire about the situation.
"It's not bad, it's not getting worse, but it's not getting better either. This villain's medical skills are really limited..." The doctor bowed his head in shame.
Yu Cheng pursed his lips and said, "I don't blame you. The imperial doctor from Beijing will be here in a few days. I'll hold on for a few more days."
Hearing this, the doctor's eyes lit up, and his expectations instantly ignited.
While they were talking, a dispute broke out in the distant shed.
Yu Cheng looked up and saw several middle-aged men fighting and scolding with each other.
"What order? Damn it. I'm going crazy because I'm going crazy. No one can control me..."
"Ahem...even if I die, I still have to find a better land. It's better than dying here as a coward..."
The doctor shook his head and sighed: "These people are the villains in the city. They have been unwilling to cooperate since they were infected with the epidemic. They find the medicine too bitter to drink half and half, and they think of ways to make trouble every day."
"If we really let them go out and run around, they might bring the disease somewhere."
Yu Chengting frowned heavily.
Disaster relief is already difficult, and encountering such arrogant and unreasonable people makes it even worse.
In the silence, Yu Cheng heard the people's angry curses.
"This group of scourges should not be wasted on porridge and medicine. They should be allowed to die."
"That's right, it's not a good thing in the first place. It'll be clean after death..."
Shen Changze spied on Yu Cheng's expression and asked, "Your Highness, do you want to deal with it?"
Yu Cheng said in a deep voice: "We must keep them under strict supervision and never let them leave even a step."
They used to be villains, but now they are cancer. They must not be allowed to harm other people again.
"Yes." Shen Changze took the order and sent several soldiers with swords over.
Although the big men were burly, they were weak after contracting the epidemic, and the soldiers drove them back into the house without much effort.
Although they were still cursing, the villains still didn't dare to break in when they saw the shining knives and Shen Changze and Yu Cheng in the distance.
After solving this little episode, Yu Cheng and Shen Changze continued their inspection.
The sun moves slowly from east to west in the sky and sets quietly without anyone noticing.
Zhou Boxu sat in the car, and the team moved forward at dusk.
In summer, when the sun rises early and gets dark late, Zhou Boxu ordered his team to get up early and rush on the road late at night, resting for only three hours at night.
When the moon rose over the treetops, the team stopped in a valley and made a fire to cook.
After simply filling his stomach, Zhou Boxu led a few people to keep vigil while the others rested.
In order to have a wider view, Zhou Boxu sat on a big tree and used his sword to chop off the branches and leaves in front of him so that he could see the entire camp.
The moonlight is quiet and shining in the valley, and a few insects chirp occasionally in the quiet night to accompany Zhou Boxu.
Zhou Boxu worked hard and scanned the surroundings with his sharp eyes, not slacking off at all.
The moon moves across the zenith and sinks slowly.
In another hour or so, it will be dawn.
The guards keeping watch below yawned and stretched, looking forward to resting at dawn.
At this moment, Zhou Boxu heard the sound of rustling.
"Be on guard against the enemy!" Zhou Boxu ordered in a deep voice.
When the guard with a tired expression heard this, his mind was shaken immediately. He hurriedly woke up the sleeping guard with a loud voice and drew his sword to fight.
"kill!"
"Come on, the silver carriage is in front."
With the cry of killing, a group of fierce bandits emerged from the dark forest and rushed towards the camp brandishing gleaming knives.
Zhou Boxu did not get down from the tree immediately, but observed the battle situation.
Judging from what they just heard and the direction in which they were charging, it was to rob the silver.
Although these medicinal materials are valuable, they are huge in quantity and are very troublesome to deal with after the robbery is over. Naturally, they are not as convenient as the robbery of silver.
After seeing the situation clearly, Zhou Boxu flew down from the tree, found Lin Jun and said, "Take Mr. Du and the medicinal materials and leave first, leave the money, and I will break up the rear."
Lin Jun said anxiously: "Sir, this is too risky, I will stop you."
Zhou Boxu fought off a fierce bandit with his sword and said with a cold expression: "This is an order!"
"...Yes! I obey." Lin Jun agreed with difficulty, letting the carriage carrying Eucommia ulmoides and the doctor go first, and then led others to drive away the carriage carrying medicinal materials.
Zhou Boxu led a group of people to fight with the bandits and cover their evacuation. Seeing someone trying to catch up, Zhou Boxu kicked over the silver box and the white money instantly scattered to the floor.
"Silver, it's silver!" When they saw the silver, the gangsters' eyes lit up and they no longer cared about chasing. They just wanted to kill Zhou Boxu and others and get the silver.
The extremely vicious gangsters swarmed towards the silver car.
Zhou Bexu jumped into the car, stood on the silver box with a sword, and said in a cold tone: "If you want money, it depends on whether you have the fate."
"Hmph! Arrogant! Not to mention the money, even your life will be decided by me!" The bandit leader jumped onto the car and started fighting Zhou Boxu with his sword.
Sword versus sword, there is a disparity in strength, and it is not suitable for head-on confrontation.
Zhou Bexu used his sword to block the incoming knife, and at the same time kicked him out, forcing the five-strong and three-strong bandit leader out of the silver car.
"Ha, for a moment, I want to kill you even more." The bandit leader's eyes flashed with excitement, and he jumped on the car again and attacked Zhou Boxu with a knife.
Zhou Boxu ducked out of the way, stabbed the sword in his hand diagonally, and hit the bandit leader directly in the face.
The bandit leader retreated suddenly, his face trembling with anger. Just as he was about to raise his sword, the sword turned and stabbed him at an extremely tricky angle.
The bandit leader was forced to jump out of the car, and Zhou Boxu pressed forward without giving him any chance to breathe.
The bandit leader waved his sword and hid while blocking, and he was in a hurry.
But no matter how he dodges, the sword bites him tightly as if it has eyes.
Grandma’s! Why is this sword like a snake? No matter how you hide, you can't dodge it.
