After the princess entered the palace, the war god prince broke his back

Under Tingqin's guidance, the group came to Xiao Yihang's residence.

Because Xiao Yihang was a prince of the current dynasty, he was not isolated, but the environment was very bad. The courtyard where he lived was visibly dilapidated, and the situation was comparable to when they first arrived in Yanzhou.

Xiao Hanye clenched his fists: "Order the governor of Youzhou to come and pay his respects!"

Although he was wearing a veil, he could still see through his peripheral vision. Moreover, they were sent by the imperial court to deal with the plague, but the governor of Youzhou did not come to see them at the first moment. What did it mean? It was self-evident.

With him around, Chu Nanyue didn't have to worry about these dirty things in officialdom. She quickly followed Tingqin into the room.

The young man who was once full of vigor and vitality was now haggard, with sallow skin and closed eyes. He lay on the bed lonely and desperate. His chest rose and fell weakly, and every breath seemed to be finally taken out after a struggle with death.

It was miserable enough to see from a distance, but even more terrifying to see up close. His body was covered with shocking red spots and pustules, which were the most obvious external features of this plague...

Chu Nanyue ordered, "Open the windows quickly to ventilate the air!"

After she finished speaking, she walked straight towards Xiao Yihang. Xiao Hanye subconsciously reached out to pull her, but eventually he slowly withdrew his arm.

She is a doctor, so she knows how to protect herself...

His eyes darkened, and he strode to the bedside. Looking at Xiao Yihang who was on the verge of death, he felt a pang of sadness in his heart.

Tingqin saw Chu Nanyue was about to take Xiao Yihang's pulse, and hurriedly reminded him: "Princess Yan, this plague is highly contagious, you have to be careful... Zhiyin died like this at that time... Woo woo..."

She couldn't help sobbing again.

She was born as a secret guard and rarely showed emotions. However, she shed tears during the two months she was in the purgatory of Youzhou...

Zhiyin is her sister... Prince Chen is her master... and there are many brothers in the Dark Guard Camp...

Chu Nanyue put on her special gloves and spoke slowly: "The most terrifying thing is not the plague, but the panic and helplessness caused by it. As long as you take proper precautions and stay optimistic, you won't be infected!"

Her voice was not loud, but it was firm and was especially clear in this cramped room.

After putting on gloves, Chu Nanyue sat beside the bed, concentrating on taking Xiao Yihang's pulse and checking his condition. Then she asked Tingqin some detailed questions.

Ting Qin answered carefully. The panic and sadness in her heart had subsided a little. She knew that as long as Prince Yan and Princess Yan were there, there was hope.

At this time, an anxious voice came from outside: "Is the Princess of Yan here?"

Chu Nanyue looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Qin Qi. She hurriedly asked, "Miss Qin, are you okay? General Qin and A Ke are very worried about you!"

She looked at Qin Qi with eyes full of admiration.

At that time, Xiao Yihang was sent to Youzhou to control the plague, and she took the initiative to follow him. A friend in need is a friend indeed. During this period of time, she saw too many human hearts, so she deeply admired Qin Qi's precious qualities.

The King of Yan also took the initiative to call out, "Miss Qin, how are you?"

He was also very grateful to Qin Qi for his loyalty to Xiao Yihang.

Looking up and seeing the white veil on Prince Yan's eyes, Qin Qi was also startled for a moment, but she quickly composed herself and bowed her head and said: "Thank you Prince Yan and Princess Yan for your concern. I am fine."

Having said that, she did not move forward, but stood at the door, and even deliberately stayed away from Leng Jiu, Jiang Yan and others.

Tingqin just thought she was afraid. After all, there were too many people infected with the plague during this period, and everyone was in a panic. She couldn't stand on the moral high ground to criticize others. What's more, she had seen Qin Qi's previous care for King Chen.

enough!

Everyone is afraid, but they just hold on...

Chu Nanyue looked Qin Qi up and down, not missing the red spot on her wrist. She pursed her lips and said, "Ms. Qin, don't worry. You won't make Seventh Brother's condition worse!"

Hearing this, Qin Qi immediately asked in surprise: "Really? Can I really continue to take care of him?"

Chu Nanyue nodded: "Okay, but you also need to rest, and cooperate with my treatment!"

When everyone heard this, they realized that Miss Qin was also infected with the plague.

For a moment, everyone had different expressions, especially Tingqin. An indescribable feeling of guilt welled up in her eyes. It was in vain that she had thought of her like that just now.

She quickly bowed her head and said, "Miss Qin, you are not feeling well, so go back to your room and rest!"

Qin Qi carefully avoided everyone and came to the bedside, staring at Xiao Yihang without blinking, and asked in a low voice: "Princess Yan...will he die?"

She had seen too many people infected with the plague, and they all looked like Xiao Yihang before they died. It was rare that he could hold on until now.

Chu Nanyue shook her head and said firmly: "Don't worry, I will definitely get him back!"

Then, she told Xiao Hanye, "My Lord, I need to treat my seventh brother now. Please go out and help me understand the situation of the plague outside!"

Xiao Hanye knew that it was useless for him to stay here, so he said softly: "Be careful!"

Then, he took another deep look at Xiao Yihang lying on the couch, and then went his separate ways to deal with the matters outside.

After he left, Chu Nanyue immediately called the doctors outside in and said loudly, "Look, Prince Chen is a critically ill patient. His condition is very serious. We should first use the silver needle acupuncture method to save his life and prevent his condition from getting worse."

Since there were not enough imperial physicians in the palace, most of the people who came this time were medical children who could not practice medicine independently. Although they could not practice medicine independently, they were familiar with medical principles, so Chu Nanyue deliberately slowed down and demonstrated it to them carefully.

With the insertion of the silver needle, Xiao Yihang's originally weak breathing finally gradually calmed down a little.

Seeing this, Qin Qi's heart, which had been tense all the time, finally relaxed a little.

Afterwards, Chu Nanyue wrote another prescription and handed it to one of the medical boys, saying, "This is a prescription for strengthening the body's vitality. Prepare it according to my instructions, and then feed it to King Chen three times a day!"

Although she couldn't develop a formula to cure the plague for the time being, with the silver needles to seal the acupoints and the tonic medicine to maintain his life, she could at least keep Xiao Yihang alive for the time being.

"Okay, all of you go down and start the treatment in our yard first!"

After she finished all this, she turned to Qin Qi and said, "Miss Qin, it's your turn now!"

Qin Qi naturally cooperated with Chu Nanyue's treatment. After looking at Xiao Yihang, she slowly lay down on the bench beside her bed, opened her clothes, revealing her back which was gradually covered with red spots.

While Chu Nanyue was giving her acupuncture, he asked her in detail about the symptoms of the plague. This was a direct patient and his words were the most authoritative. After a round of acupuncture, Chu Nanyue had a general understanding of the disease.

Afterwards, she told Qin Qi to take the tonic medicine on time and left the room.

When they arrived at the government office, they saw a group of yamen runners kneeling on the ground tremblingly, while Prince Yan was sitting at the head with a sullen look on his face.

The prefect, Lord Zheng, cried, "Prince Yan, I am wronged. It's not that I don't cooperate, but the court has abandoned Youzhou. Now we can only enter Youzhou but not leave. There is a shortage of supplies and doctors, and even food is gradually running out. The people are already panic-stricken. Once they can't even solve the most basic food and clothing problems, what else can I use to convince them? Everything is in chaos now. The isolation area that Prince Chen had divided before also collapsed with his own infection. Anyway, everyone is going to die, and they have to die in their own homes! As the parent official of Youzhou, I naturally want to protect the safety of the people of Youzhou, but I really can't do anything. Even my old mother died of this plague!"

Prince Chen is about to die, what can a small prefect like him do?

If the imperial court wanted to control the plague, it would not have failed to send supplies, let alone send a blind prince.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the imperial court wants to let Youzhou fend for itself.

Chu Nanyue said, "It's only been two months. How come the huge Youzhou can't solve the problem of food and clothing?"

Seeing Chu Nanyue coming over, Xiao Hanye asked her to sit down.

Then, Lord Zheng recognized that this was the Princess of Yan. He quickly bowed his head and replied, "Princess of Yan, the people have missed this year's farming season in the past two months. The wealthy families with savings can survive, but the vast majority of the people cannot. Even if our government wants to open the warehouse to distribute food, we can't handle the large number of people. It's just a drop in the bucket!"

Chu Nanyue and Xiao Hanye looked at each other and understood in their hearts that no matter when, most of the wealth in society will always be in the hands of a small number of people.

Once most people encounter natural disasters or man-made disasters, they can only wait for relief, and the amount of relief often depends on their willingness and ability.

Chu Nanyue replied, "This plague is beyond imagination. If we can't even solve the problem of food and clothing, then we will have no energy and confidence to fight this disaster." After a pause, she continued, "Sir Zheng, you are the parent official of Youzhou, so you must take on the responsibility of pleading for the people. Now go and contact the wealthy businessmen to donate food and medicine!"

Upon hearing this, Lord Zheng looked embarrassed and said, "Princess Yan, this... I'm afraid you don't know. Youzhou is located in a remote area and has always been plagued by bandits. Especially when the plague broke out, they burned, killed, and looted wantonly, robbing the rich merchants' supplies and even attacking the yamen runners who were transporting medicinal materials. As a result, those rich merchants had already hidden away one by one. I am really powerless..."

Xiao Hanye stood up and slammed the table: "If you can't do such a small thing, then there is no need to keep you as the governor of this state. The court supports you officials not to let you sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor, but to stand up at the critical moment, seek benefits for the people, and help the country out of danger!

The court has not given up on Youzhou, otherwise why would they send me and the Princess of Yan to deal with the plague? I will immediately write to the court to send supplies, but before that, we can't panic. It's not right to ask those wealthy merchants to donate food, but if their families are gone, how can they talk about individuals? As the parent official of Youzhou, what you should do is to find a way to get through this difficult time, rather than complaining about the world and breaking the jar. You can promise them future benefits in exchange for their willingness to work for you. This is the means you should have as a prefecture government!

As for the bandit problem, I will send someone to solve it myself!"

Looking at the broken pear wood table, Lord Zheng was so scared that he swallowed his saliva repeatedly.

Speaking of which, the Prince of Yan is blind, so how come his aura hasn’t diminished at all?

He knew that the Prince of Yan in front of him had killed an official of the imperial court with his own hands. If he had been hit by that palm just now, all the bones in his body would have been broken, right?

Oh my god, he would never dare to underestimate this blind prince again.

What's more, what the blind prince said was right. As a prefect, how could he not be able to deal with a few wealthy businessmen?

Without his support, how can a wealthy businessman do business well?

Under the combination of kindness and severity used by King Yan, he suddenly realized his mistake, accepted his orders, and retreated in high spirits.

Looking at the departing figure of Zheng, Xiao Hanye spoke again in a deep voice: "Quickly report the situation in Youzhou to the court and request support from the court. At the same time, inform the surrounding counties and prefectures. When one side is in trouble, all sides will support it. Ensure that the people of Youzhou have sufficient supplies during the fight against the epidemic!

Also, what Lord Zheng just said about the bandits taking advantage of this opportunity to burn, kill and plunder, let's also deal with it. Leng Jiu, gather the remaining guards of Prince Yan's Mansion. If there are not enough, all the imperial guards and yamen runners will be sent to fill in. Anyone who dares to disobey orders at this moment will be killed!"

After these words were spoken, the hall fell silent for a long time.

In particular, the dozen or so imperial guards who were accompanying them and the yamen runners in the government office were all shocked.

This is the thundering method that their Beixiao Kingdom’s God of War Prince should have!

The aura he possessed was inadvertently developed through years of fighting on the battlefield, and this murderous aura would not disappear with his blindness.

Although the court had let him down, at this critical moment, he did not say a word against the court. Instead, he easily resolved such a difficult situation with his own strength and just a few words.

This made the imperial guards and yamen runners, who had originally looked down on him, look at him with admiration and fear.

This is what a war god should be like!

They all knelt down and bowed their heads, and replied in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Yes, Lord Yan!"

After everyone had done their job, Xiao Hanye said to Chu Nanyue in a deep voice: "Ayue, I will take care of these external factors, you just need to concentrate on treating the plague!"

Chu Nanyue added: "In addition, we also need to set up a new quarantine area. Although the seventh brother is infected, it does not mean that his previous efforts have been in vain. Only if everyone strictly abides by the quarantine policy will there be no new infections. In this way, our doctors can also better devote themselves to studying the plague formula!"

Xiao Hanye nodded: "Okay!"

When they returned home after their busy work, it was already midnight. As soon as they entered the courtyard, Tingqin came running to report: "My Lord, Princess, you are finally back. Prince Chen has woken up and has been shouting that he wants to see you."

Xiao Hanye and Chu Nanyue looked at each other and walked in together with big strides.
