Chapter 242 Insufficient success
After Zhu Zian said this, he got up and prepared to deal with the situation.

So, the troubles of the people came...

Originally, the plague was controlled very well, and it had already reached the end stage. The villages where the plague occurred were all sealed off to prevent it from spreading further.

As for the patients in the village, they are also isolated in a separate place, and there are special people who deliver medicinal materials and food, so there is no major trouble. As long as they are blocked for another half a month, and the last patient recovers, then this time the plague will be cured. You can also declare success.

But who knew, Zhu Zian lit several fires as soon as he took office, which completely disrupted the original direction.

First of all, on the basis of the original, an additional layer of blockade was added. Next, people who delivered medicinal materials and food were not allowed to enter the village.

After the food and medicinal materials were cut off, some people naturally protested, but how could the common people dare to confront the guards with real swords and guns in their hands?In the end, I could only swallow my breath.

But what happened next became more and more serious. In ten days, people in several villages died of illness directly due to the lack of doctors and medicinal materials.

The mood of the villagers became more and more tense and collapsed, until they started to run out of food and starved to death. The remaining villagers who were not sick or starved to death couldn't bear it anymore.

Everyone wanted to rush out. After being beaten up, it was obvious, so they came in the dark. Some villagers secretly ran out to find the doctor to find food.

It's fine if you don't get caught once or twice, but if you walk a lot at night, you will always run into ghosts, and you will still be found by the patrolling yamen servants.

These people were ordered by the third prince, and they were severely punished when they were caught. They were beaten violently on the spot, and several of them were even beaten to death.

The anger of the people was like a spark that was ignited in an instant. Everyone united and directly broke through the blockade, and rushed outside the Yuhuan County Government Office with hoes and farm tools to ask for an explanation.

As a result, the plague that was originally blocked began to spread outward again, because in addition to the common people who came to ask for explanations, there were also many people looking for food and medicinal materials.

Yuhuan County, which was originally peaceful, turned out to be even more chaotic than when the plague broke out.

Amidst the complaints, the county government was immediately surrounded by the common people, all of whom were condemning the third prince.

It was because the third prince was too high-profile when he came, so basically, everyone knew that these orders were given by the third prince.

As for Shen Xi and Shen Chenchen, who had been in the hearts of the people before, they did not know where to go.

At some point in the common people, it began to spread that Dr. Shen and Mr. Shen were under house arrest by the third prince, saying that the third prince wanted to take the credit for the control of the plague, and his methods were cruel, with no regard for the lives of the people.

Anyway, during this period of time, there were all kinds of opinions, and most of them were not good for the third prince.

And Shen Chenchen and Shen Xi have been doing their best to treat the people, and they have blocked the communication between the villages. They have indeed controlled the plague, and they still have a lot of status among the people.

Everyone heard that their beloved Dr. Shen and Mr. Shen were under house arrest, so they were naturally even more angry, and wanted to rush into the county government several times.

The guards brought by the third prince wanted to kill a few people to build their prestige, but they were stopped by the magistrate of the county government. After all, if they really killed people, what would happen would be unpredictable.

This is far away from the capital, and if something serious happens, it will be too late for the capital to help.

So Zhu Zian was blocked in the county office, throwing bowls and bottles all day long, but he didn't want to give in, so he invited Shen Chenchen and Shen Xi out, and the stalemate continued like this.

Before Zhu Zi'an could think of a solution, the news from Yuhuan County was rushed to the capital by Shen Chenchen. It only took seven days, but three horses ran away to death.

But the effect is remarkable.

"what!"

When Emperor Yeyun saw the bulletin delivered in his hand, he fell to his feet angrily.

Seeing His Majesty's furious appearance, all civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knelt down one after another: "The emperor calm down!"

Emperor Yeyun's face was livid with anger, and he said angrily: "Third prince, you bastard! Come, someone! Send me an imperial decree to call the third prince back from Yuhuan County in southern Hebei."

"There is also the county magistrate in Yuhuan County, who is ineffective in his work. He doesn't know how to persuade the third prince to give me his official position. Yuhuan County in the south of Hebei Province asked Shen Xi to continue to be the supervisor. I must calm down the plague and public grievances as soon as possible!"

This time, of course, he sent them there quickly. If it was really late, Emperor Yeyun was really afraid that a plague would turn into a riot.

Fortunately, it was time to go quickly. Although the people had tried to rush into the county office several times, no one died.

Shen Chenchen and Shen Xi have been observing everything in secret. They have long expected this situation, so when Zhu Zian came to southern Jinan, they had already made a lot of preparations.

It's just that no matter how good the preparation was, it was not enough for Zhu Zi'an's self-willed use, and a few people still died. However, fortunately, the news was sent out, and now the people have not really made a fuss. Although the plague has spread again, there are still people who will return it room.

Zhu Zian was a little bit unwilling to receive the imperial decree from the capital, and didn't want to go back at all. After all, this is a duck with its mouth flying, and even got kicked by the duck.

Losing his wife and losing his army, how could Zhu Zian be willing?

Shen Xi and Shen Chenchen had already been invited out at this time. Looking at Zhu Zian's livid face, Shen Chenchen was very happy in his heart, and couldn't help but said in a strange way.

"Your Highness, Third Prince, you should go back to the capital as soon as possible. Just leave the plague in southern Hebei to the little girl and Master Shen. I think His Majesty must miss you very much. It should be because you are worried about the safety of the Third Prince, that's why you want to go back quickly."

Zhu Zi'an narrowed his eyes, and Shen Chenchen said with a sneer: "Doctor Shen, don't be too happy, I'm going back to the capital, but this plague is not so easy to manage, you better be serious all the best."

Shen Xi heard Zhu Zian's threat, and didn't want Zhu Zian to make troubles. If the other party did something during the plague, it would be the common people who would suffer.

Shen Xi spoke directly, with a slight threat in his tone: "Your Highness, don't forget, you have already stumbled in the matter of the plague, do you want to do it again?"

"If that's the case, the next imperial edict from His Majesty may not simply recall you."

"you!"

Zhu Zian choked for a moment, and his thoughts of sabotage dissipated in an instant.

What Shen Xi said was right, she had already failed once in the matter of the plague, and if the emperor found out something, I am afraid that he would not forgive himself easily.

Shen Xi, a bastard, knows how to focus on the key points!

Zhu Zian sneered, after all, he didn't play tricks with Shen Xi and Shen Chenchen, he took his guards and left Ji Nan in a low-key manner.

Both Shen Chenchen and Shen Xi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and immediately arranged blockade and treatment again in full swing.
