The little eunuch said quickly: "Your Highness, they are all fine. They are fine. With the imperial doctor and Mrs. Lu here, nothing serious will happen. It's just that the manpower there is limited. I hope your majesty will send more doctors this time."
Rong Zhao came to his senses in a daze, yes, with Shen Lan here, how could anything happen to them? Others didn't know it, but she had seen with her own eyes how powerful Shen Lansui's abilities were, so why was she still panicking?
The queen pressed her heart with trembling hands, almost crying, "As long as it's okay, it's okay!"
Rong Zhao quickly patted her on the back and said, "Don't worry, Queen Mother, Seventh Brother Jiren has his own destiny, everything will be fine."
But such comfort was too pale. Rong Zhao thought for a moment and then said: "My daughter went to the eminent monk to pray for a few peace charms and offered them to the Buddha for consecration. She planned to give them to her eldest brother, seventh brother, and the others during the Chinese New Year. Now..." She sighed He said, "If Wanguan City is like this, they will definitely not be able to come back a year ago. I will have someone send it to them."
The queen heard this and held her hand, "You are still thoughtful."
Although praying to gods and praying to Buddha may not necessarily be useful, isn’t it just peace of mind that you seek?
The mother and daughter discussed for a while, and the queen took out a lot of silver and medicinal materials from her warehouse and had them packed up and sent to Wan Guan City. She also called the wives of Yangdu into the palace and asked everyone to donate some money, no matter how much, for Wan Guan City. Guancheng contributes a little bit of your heart.
Rong Zhao also made a lot of money himself, and went to Emperor Hui'an again, hoping to open up donations to relieve the pressure on the treasury.
After all, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and there is another huge expenditure.
Emperor Hui'an followed his good deeds and opened a donation point among the people. Voluntary donations were not limited to money, but also medicinal materials, food and clothing. No matter how much, as long as the donation was registered, the taxes for the coming year could be reduced accordingly and some discounts would be given.
This point is mainly aimed at those wealthy businessmen.
Sure enough, after the edict was issued, there were hundreds of responses, and a lot of money and food were raised in less than half a day.
The princes also started to move one after another, looking for people one by one, and collecting medicinal materials.
When Emperor Hui'an found out, he sighed, closed the folded book and said to Cheng Jin who was beside him: "Rong Zhao took the initiative to invite Ying to go to Wanguan City. Do you think I will let her go or not?"
Cheng Jin was his confidant eunuch. He did not take sides and was only loyal to him. At this time, he was the only one who could talk to Emperor Hui'an.
Cheng Jin thought for a moment and said: "Princess Rong Zhao is brave and careful. She dares to stand up at this time, whether she goes or not. This courage is really rare."
Emperor Hui'an nodded in agreement, "Among my many children, I like Rong Zhao the most, not only because she is my legitimate daughter, but also because I can see many things in her that other princes do not have."
As he spoke, he sighed again, stared at the memorial on the case and murmured: "If she were a man, I would have saved myself a lot of worry."
Cheng Jin didn't dare to answer this.
Your Majesty has made it clear that he is dissatisfied with the prince!
Fortunately, Emperor Hui'an didn't expect him to answer. He picked up the memorial and read it again. He couldn't help laughing after reading it. He threw it in front of Cheng Jin and said, "Look, if there is one there are two. The fifth brother also wants to go." .”
Cheng Jin didn't look at it. He looked at Emperor Hui'an's face and said, "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince, wants to make some meritorious deeds and atone for his sins."
"He wants to? I don't want to." Emperor Hui'an smiled slightly, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "Princess Rong Zhao is responsible for escorting the relief supplies, and twenty Jinyi guards will be sent to accompany her to protect the safety of the princess."
"Yes!" Cheng Jin turned around to convey the order and sighed silently. The fifth prince had really lost the emperor's heart this time.
The battle for the heir is getting more and more intense. Your Majesty obviously doesn't trust the prince now. It's hard to say who will win in the future.
Rong Zhao accepted the order calmly and was not surprised by the result.
If the fifth prince had not recommended himself at a discount, the father might not have let her go, for fear that something would happen to her there. But when the fifth prince showed up, the father would choose her instead in order to defeat him.
Her wish came true and she went to bid farewell to the queen.
The queen was naturally reluctant to give up. She held her hand and gave a lot of instructions, wishing she could bring the entire palace with her. In the end, Rong Zhao persuaded her. She only brought some necessities and left with the twenty Jinyi guards. .
On the carriage, Rong Zhao took one last look at Yangdu City in the distance, and tightened the peace talisman in his hand, Liang Ci, wait for me.
*
After the isolation areas were re-divided, the people were still a little panicked, especially those in the severe disease areas. They were so anxious that they felt like they were not going to die soon every day when they opened their eyes.
I had repeated fevers, vomiting and diarrhea, and a rash on my body. The pain and itching were excruciating. I couldn't sleep at night. I didn't even need to get close. I could hear the moans and sobs coming one after another just by walking outside.
The big pot at the door was constantly simmering, and the white mist from the boiling medicinal soup gave people a headache.
A raging fire would be lit in the garbage dump outside the city every night. Inside it would be the underwear of the patients, and next to it would be the exhumed corpses, which would be burned together for most of the night.
There was not a single idle person in the whole city, and everyone who could move started to move.
The soldiers were whirling around, and the doctors couldn't even close their eyes.
After all, there were so many soldiers that they could rotate around, but there were only a few doctors. They only took a breather and drank water once in a while, which was considered a rest.
Shen Lansui came out of the isolation area, took off her mask and took a deep breath of fresh air. Just as she was about to wipe the sweat from her forehead, a person suddenly came up from behind and pressed the handkerchief to her forehead. She wiped the sweat away.
She turned around and saw that it was Lu Xingyue.
I don't know if this person has eyes on her. As long as she is alone, he will appear immediately. She never sees him when she is busy.
Lu Xingyue wiped her sweat and was about to put the handkerchief away. Shen Lansui shook his head and said, "We can't keep this thing. The quarantine area is full of germs. I'm not clean either. Throw it into the laundry pile over there and we'll get it together later." Go cook and disinfect."
"good."
Lu Xingyue obediently obeyed, threw away the handkerchief and came back with a food box in his hand.
He squatted on the roadside and opened it, taking out a plate of steaming steamed buns. "Eat something, you've been busy all morning."
"Have you eaten?" Shen Lansui took one of the chopsticks and brought it to Lu Xingyue's lips, "How is the house being built?"
Lu Xingyue took a bite and whispered: "The frame of the house is almost complete. Once the windows and beds are built, people can live in it. However, the charcoal and firewood in the city are not enough, and it is cold to live in."
Shen Lansui sighed, gnawing the buns numbly and said, "There is still a lot of food now, but the medicinal materials have been exhausted. I don't know when the next batch will come."
During this period of time, Dr. Zhang and Dr. Xue have been doing a lot of research together. They have tried various prescriptions, including folk secret recipes. Although the effect of the medicine they have come up with is not very good, at least it can control the pain. If it gets worse, if it is improved, they will definitely be able to find a symptomatic prescription. However, without enough medicinal materials to support it, they dare not try it easily.
So now we are at an impasse.
Just as Lu Xingyue was about to say something, he suddenly heard something. His eyebrows moved and he looked up.
