"What should we do?" By now, Feng Muyu had already realized what was going on.
"Looks like we can only seal the city." This kind of plague had to be dealt with cleanly. If there was even the slightest bit of hesitation, the outbreak of the disease would be out of control.
"Xuan Can!" Ride your horse to the city guards and inform my second brother to come over. Tell him to bring the pigeon that communicates to the palace. Hurry! "
"Yes sir!" After receiving the order, Xuan Can did not dare to delay. He mounted his horse and quickly ran off.
Now that the matter had just broken out, neither Wei Ziyao nor Feng Muyu made a big deal out of it.
Until Wei Xuan arrived.
"Little sister."
"Second brother, did you bring the pigeon?"
"Here." Wei Xuan handed the pigeon to Wei Ziyao.
"What is it? Why are you in such a hurry to find me?
"It was rare for him to come back, so the emperor ordered him to help train the city guards.
"Second brother, listen to me, this matter is very urgent, there is a plague spreading among the refugees, it is very fast, there was no abnormality yesterday, but today it is already showing signs of uncontrollable, the refugees are resting in groups, it is very likely that they are already seriously infected, so these people must not go near the water source outside the city, you take the army to protect the river, do not allow them to go near it, and do not allow them to bathe, if they are disobedient, violently drive them away, but do not imprison them!"
Wei Ziyao's order caused Wei Xuan to frown, "How can this be? If we don't let the refugees use the water, it will cause a riot. "
"Don't worry, it won't be chaotic. If the plague breaks out, these people won't have the energy to mess around. When the time comes, the people from the military camp will come to deliver water at a fixed time and distribute it together. I might even apply for a batch of tents to take in the patients who have already fallen ill."
"No problem, I'll get someone to get it for you right now!" Wei Xuan did not hesitate and directly believed his sister.
"Write another letter to the emperor and tell him to completely seal off the city gates here and control the flow of people entering the city. If there is no need, do not enter or leave for a short period of time. Also, give orders to the surrounding cities to control the number of people entering the capital."
This kind of thing might be difficult in modern times, but in ancient times where imperial power was supreme, as long as the emperor gave an order, no one would dare to go against it.
After a series of instructions, the refugees finally realized that something was wrong.
The reason for that was because there were simply too many people among them that had fallen in a single day.
Wei Ziyao finally stood up and explained the situation to them.
"Now, I suspect that the plague has a lot to do with your diet. Remember not to eat rodent meat, or else …"
"You're lying!" Someone suddenly shouted, "How can you say that it's caused by us eating meat? Why don't you say that there's something wrong with your porridge? "
"Exactly! I understand now! His Majesty said that our homes are being rebuilt and that the disaster relief funds will be distributed. These are all lies. He sent you to poison us! If you kill us, the money will go into your pockets! "
"Liar! Liar! "
With the outbreak of the plague, these people instantly began to riot.
Feng Muyu quickly shielded Wei Ziyao behind him. A broken porcelain bowl hit his forehead, and blood flowed down his cheek.
Wei Ziyao was furious. She grabbed Feng Muyu's wrist and pulled him away.
"You unruly people, Young Master Feng and I are the only ones who can save you right now. Who else do you want to count on? If the emperor really wanted to harm you, would he let you eat so many days of food for nothing? He would have poisoned you to death long ago! If the emperor wants to make a move, would he give you a chance to breathe? "
"I'm warning you, there are only two of us doctors here right now. We will do our best to save your lives. If you want to live, then listen to our arrangements. If anyone dares to hit you, we will immediately leave you behind and fend for yourselves!"
Feng Muyu looked at the skinny woman beside him. It was admirable that such a powerful aura could erupt from her body.
Even Wei Xuan was intimidated by her.
"Little sister, I'll be here to protect you these days. Don't worry, second brother won't let anyone hurt you."
