Across the heavens in the Red Mansion

Chapter 44 Counting the Plagues of the Ming Dynasty
Jia Lang was frightened to death by Sun Chuanting, and he relaxed after hearing Sun Chuanting say that he was scared just now.

After Sun Chuanting smiled at Jia Lang and said that he was no longer joking, he restrained his smile and said to the other soldiers in the tent, "You all should step back, just keep Vice-General Qiao and me here."

The rest of the soldiers in the camp hesitated after hearing what their supervisor said, and one of them, who looked like a small captain, stood up and said to Sun Chuanting submissively, "Supervisor, this, this is because of your Safety comes first!"

The person at the level of the team leader said, and looked at Sun Chuanting to signal Jia Lang, who lowered his head.

Seeing this, Sun Chuanting didn't blame them. These soldiers were sent to his side to protect his safety, and they were dedicated to their duties. How could Sun Chuanting blame them!

However, Sun Chuanting had his own considerations at this time. It was better for as few people as possible to know about the plague. It would be better for Jia Lang and the others to rot in the next conversation.

Immediately, Sun Chuanting said patiently to the captain-level person who kindly reminded him: "You all step back, I have important matters to discuss with this junior, it is not suitable for you to listen to, besides, there is General Qiao What will happen to me here."

"You just need to retreat outside the tent, I will call out to you if anything happens."

After hearing Sun Chuanting's words, the team leader looked at Jia Lang who was at the bottom. In the eyes of the team leader, Jia Lang was white and tender, and he didn't look like someone who could fight at all, and assassins wouldn't look for him like this.

The captain looked at his deputy, Joe, and he had nothing to say.With the stature of Lieutenant General Qiao, can Jia Lang's boyish face threaten the supervisor?impossible.

In the eyes of the team leader, a pretty boy like Jia Lang was someone who was hanged and beaten by Vice General Qiao, not to mention that Vice General Qiao still carried weapons with him, Jia Lang couldn't see anything that could be hidden.

So the team leader quickly replied to Sun Chuanting: "Yes, supervisor, this subordinate will obey."

Immediately, he waved to the rest of the soldiers, and led the rest of the soldiers in the camp out to guard outside the camp.

Jia Lang looked at the soldiers striding out, especially the one in the lead. Jia Lang felt a serious sense of offense from his gaze wandering between him and Qiao Qian before he returned "yes" to Sun Chuanting For some reason, Jia Lang could only watch him leave step by step.

Sun Chuanting saw that all the people in the camp went out, and he, Qiaoqian and Jia Lang were the only ones left in the camp.

At this moment, Sun Chuanting only opened his mouth to signal Qiaoqian: "Qiaoqian, you go to the door of the tent and lock this door, and don't let the news leak out."

After listening to Sun Chuanting's order, Qiaoqian immediately stood outside the tent and guarded it.

Jia Lang was not surprised when he saw Sun Chuanting's series of actions. The fewer people in the army who knew about the plague, the better.

Immediately Jia Lang saw Sun Chuanting sitting at the head, and said to Jia Lang, "Master Jia, now, there is no one else in the camp, so you can talk about the plague in detail."

"Are you sure about the plague?"

"What solution do you have?"

"And tell me everything one by one."

Listening to Sun Chuanting's series of questions, Jia Lang's troubled mind turned around on his own, and then Jia Lang said to Sun Chuanting: "Senior Sun, I dare not be 100% sure about the plague. .”

"But the probability of the plague in this army is very high. There is some basis for this late learning."

Sun Chuanting became a little interested after hearing Jia Lang's words, and asked Jia Lang with great interest: "There is still a basis for this plague, are you a medical student?"

The plague in ancient times was a serious disease, almost no cure was successful, and most of them came inexplicably, without any evidence. When Sun Chuanting met Jia Lang, he said that he had evidence for the plague. How could he not be curious nowadays? stand up.

Jia Lang heard Sun Chuanting asking him, and quickly replied: "Senior Sun was joking, late school is not for studying medicine, but for serious scholars."

Sun Chuanting was still waiting for Jia Lang to reply, "I'm a medical student" and then explain how to judge the symptoms of the plague before a large-scale outbreak. Jia Lang gave him an answer of "not a medical student".

But since Jia Lang didn't study medicine, Sun Chuanting became even more curious, so he asked Jia Lang suspiciously, "Since you didn't study medicine, where did you come from to affirm that what this sergeant got is Plague, don’t talk nonsense with me, it’s useless.”

Sun Chuanting, who said the last sentence, looked at Jia Lang with a sense of oppression and curiosity about what Jia Lang was based on.

Jia Lang listened to Sun Chuanting's half-questioning and half-pressing question to him, and immediately said what he had prepared to say. Jia Lang asked Sun Chuanting back: "Dare to ask Senior Sun if you know the number of plagues in the Ming Dynasty?" ?”

Sun Chuanting was waiting for Jia Lang to reply, but unexpectedly Jia Lang asked him, but at this time he didn't care about these things, and replied to Jia Lang: "How many plagues have come from the Ming Dynasty? I don’t know, but it’s possible that you know all about it.”

Listening to Sun Chuanting's rhetorical question, Jia Lang smiled and said to Sun Chuanting, "Senior Sun doesn't know, but this junior knows a little."

While talking, Jia Lang continued the previous topic: "Counting the history of our Ming Dynasty, the number of plagues can be said to be not too many."

"The great epidemic in Shaowu during the Yongle period, the epidemic in five counties of Ningbo, and the epidemic in three counties of Huzhou."

"The great epidemics in Shaoxing, Ningbo, and Taizhou during the orthodox years."

"The Great Epidemic in Guilin during the Jingtai Period."

"The Great Plague in Fujian and the Great Epidemic in the New Wild Plague during the Chenghua Period."

"During the Zhengde period, Huguang, Pingxi, Qingliang, Zhenyuan, Pianqiao, and Siwei were plagued by major epidemics, and many died. Jingzhou was plagued by epidemics from July to December, and Jianning and Shaowu were also severely affected from August. "

"There was also the plague in the capital during the Wanli period. Bazhou, Wen'an, Dacheng, and Bao'an all suffered from the plague. The plague in Daliang and Datong plagued it."

At this time, Sun Chuanting heard Jia Lang's detailed counting, his complexion gradually turned pale, Jia Lang didn't say anything, Sun Chuanting didn't know that the Guangda Ming Dynasty suffered from so many major epidemics.

Thinking of the King Chuang's army that is close at hand, thinking that the soldiers in the army may be suffering from the plague, could it be that the sky is dead for my Ming Dynasty, Sun Chuanting thought with a livid face, at this time, Sun Chuanting roared in his heart: No, my Ming Dynasty can't just let it go Death.

Jia Lang looked at Sun Chuanting's livid face, but he could feel the sadness on Sun Chuanting's body. The courtiers are loyal, so what can they do!
