The words' scorching sun 'seemed to make everyone see a scene from hell.
After a natural disaster, the scorching sun would definitely cause an epidemic. Tianwu stared at Feng Yu Heng and asked her, "Is there any way to save them?"
Feng Yu Heng's beautiful eyebrows were tightly knitted together. After thinking for a while, she said, "I have already ordered people to move the corpses outside the city to a faraway place. In order to control the epidemic, the corpses must first be burned. The living people must also be on guard at all times. Any small wound on the body can cause an epidemic if not treated properly. The environment where the refugees live must also be constantly disinfected to isolate the germs to the greatest extent. The food they eat must be clean. If they have a fever or a cold, they must be treated as soon as possible. Under these conditions, a sneeze can kill a person. I … "She said a lot in one breath. When she finally stopped, she held Xuan Tianming's hand tightly. Then, she looked at Tianwu with a determined gaze and said," I'm going out of the city. "
"No!" Xuan Tianming reacted immediately. He held her small hand tightly and said seriously, "Definitely not."
Emperor Tianwu also nodded, "There are plenty of people to send. Heng Heng, you don't have to go."
Feng Yu Heng helplessly shook her head, "No, only I can save them. If I don't go, no matter how many doctors are sent, it will be useless. "
She persuaded Xuan Tianming, "You have to believe me. I have the ability to protect myself. I definitely won't be infected by the epidemic." She was afraid that Xuan Tianming wouldn't believe her, so she quickly said, "I can give myself an injection. As long as I take the injection, I won't get sick."
Xuan Tianming didn't know what she meant by the mysterious needle, but when he thought about Feng Yu Heng's previous actions and the strange items she used to save people, he knew that since this girl was so sure, she would definitely be able to protect herself. So he nodded and said, "Okay, I will go with you."
This sentence angered Tianwu. He slammed the table and loudly said, "No!"
Zhang Yuan also advised from the side, "Your Highness, please reconsider!"
Perhaps Emperor Tianwu could still accept Feng Yu Heng leaving the city, but he definitely couldn't accept Xuan Tianming leaving the city. He couldn't let anything happen to his son. Thus, he waved his hand and sealed the conversation. "I will not give in on this matter!"
Xuan Tianming stared at Tianwu and didn't speak for a long time. Just when Feng Yu Heng felt that the atmosphere was too awkward and wanted to persuade Xuan Tianming to give up on the idea of leaving the city, Xuan Tianming suddenly spoke. He said to Tianwu, "I finally understand why Imperial Mother doesn't want to see you."
With just one sentence, Tianwu's previous imposing manner completely disappeared. His hand was still in the state of waving, frozen in midair. The anger on his face had not faded, but it was suffused with traces of death. He seemed to have returned to many, many years ago, to the days when he lived freely in the mountains with Yun Pianpian. That girl could make him happy for a long time when she pounced on a butterfly, and when she fell into the water when she caught a fish, it made him, a seven-foot man, cry. But later, the plague spread, and so many people in the tribe died. The palace sent people to pick him up, telling him that he must return to the palace. He gritted his teeth and took Yun Pianpian away from the tribe where she was born and raised. He saved her life, but the plague spread uncontrollably. In the end, the entire tribe was destroyed in the long river of history. He hid it from Yun Pianpian for a few years until the matter was exposed. Yun Pianpian locked herself in the Winter Moon Palace and never saw him again.
Tianwu's entire body was lifeless. Zhang Yuan worriedly supported him and kept winking at Xuan Tianming, wanting him to say something nice. But Tianwu waved his hand, sighed heavily, and said, "Go! Come back alive. Save those refugees, just … just treat it as compensation for the Xiye Tribe. "
Feng Yu Heng didn't understand what Tianwu's words meant, nor did she understand what was going on with the Xiye Tribe. But she didn't have much curiosity. The natural disaster was already in front of her, so who still had the mood to explore the gossip?
It was already late at night. When the two came out of the palace, it was already past midnight. But there were still many soldiers running around on the street, making people panic.
Feng Yu Heng said to Xuan Tianming, "Actually, you don't have to go out of the city with me. After all, the capital is not stable, and the people need to be comforted."
Xuan Tianming patted her shoulder and comforted her, "In the capital, there is Imperial Father and Seventh Brother. In terms of comforting people, Seventh Brother has always been better than me. "
Feng Yu Heng also knew this truth, but when she was about to leave the palace, Emperor Tianwu's reluctant look kept circling in her mind. She said, "Imperial Father can't bear to part with you. I can go out. After all, I am not a member of the royal family. Even if something happens to me, he won't be too distressed. But you are different, Xuan Tianming. I can see that Imperial Father doesn't want you to go out. If something happens to you, he can't bear it. "
"You will let something happen to me?" Xuan Tianming asked her, "If something happens to me, then you will definitely not be safe. Heng Heng, we will enjoy blessings together, and we will bear hardships together. This is nothing, I am a man. "
With the words' I am a man ', Feng Yu Heng couldn't say anything more. She could understand Xuan Tianming's intention to bear the burden with her. If she was in his shoes, she would do the same.
The imperial carriage travelled all the way to the county princess' manor. Xuan Tianming advised her: "Have a good night's sleep tonight. Tomorrow morning, we will leave the city."
He said to have a good night's sleep, but who would be able to sleep. After Feng Yu Heng returned to her courtyard, she went straight into the medicine storage room. Then she entered her space and took out all of the antibiotic injections in her space. She picked out the ones that could be used and placed them in a box. She also found a large amount of disinfectant and took out many spray bottles. There were also many necessary medicines, cold medicine, diarrhea medicine. She prepared everything that she could think of beforehand and brought it out of her space. After doing this countless times, the medicine storage room was filled with the things that she brought out. Feng Yu Heng sat on the ground and looked at the medicine piled up around her. She didn't feel relaxed at all. Because she knew that just having medicine was not enough. She didn't know how Xuan Tiange's preparations were going. There was also clothing.
Thinking of clothing, Feng Yu Heng sighed and returned to her space to take out the raincoats one by one. Fortunately, the space would automatically replenish these non-consumable items as long as they were taken out. Otherwise, there really was nothing that she could do.
She worked for an entire night, filling the medicine storage room to the brim, but it was still not enough. But she could not take any more. There were too many things, and transporting them out of the city would be a problem. She called Wang Chuan in and ordered: "Quickly go prepare the carriage. Put all of the things in the carriage. Remember, the carriage must be sturdy. The waterproof cloth must be thick. "
Wang Chuan told her: "Young Miss, don't worry. Many of the raincoats that you gave to the servants were taken apart last night. The ones that were taken apart were used to supplement the carriage. Right now, the outside of the carriage is covered with raincoats. It definitely won't leak."
Only then did she calm down.
After quickly eating breakfast, Xuan Tianming's imperial carriage had already arrived in front of the county princess' manor. It was not just his carriage. There was also Xuan Tiange's carriage. Sitting in the carriage were Bai Fu Rong, Ren Xi Feng and Fung Tian Yu. There were also all of the food that she had bought. They were all waiting in front of the manor's entrance.
Feng Yu Heng left Qing Yu in the manor to take care of Yao shi. She then brought Wang Chuan, Huang Quan and the carriages filled with supplies to join the group of carriages.
Just as she was about to leave, Xiang Rong rushed out of the manor wearing a raincoat. She anxiously called out to her: "Second sister!"
Feng Yu Heng turned around and loudly said: "Stay in the manor. Don't go anywhere. Be good."
"It's not about that!" Xiang Rong anxiously said: "I am not going out of the city. It's just that I was thinking about how the people outside the city are wearing soaked clothes. Even if there are curtains to shelter them from the rain and congee to drink, wearing that sort of clothing will cause them to get sick! Second sister, there's definitely not enough time to make clothes right now. My courtyard has some old clothes that I have worn before, and they're all very clean. I have already sent someone back to get them. How about we find some more old clothes and send them over. We'll send them to as many people as we can! "
Feng Yu Heng's eyes lit up. This was something that she had indeed overlooked. Xiang Rong's idea was very good. Using old clothes would save a lot of effort compared to making new clothes, and it would not be wasteful. But with just a few people, how many old clothes could they gather?
At this time, Ren Xi Feng, who had come with Xuan Tiange, loudly said from the imperial carriage in the back: "How about this! Tian Yu and I will stay behind to help the third young miss collect clothes. If we don't have enough at home, we can go to other families to get some. There are so many large families in the capital. Regardless of whether it's the master's or the servants', as long as it's clean and dry, it's fine. It doesn't matter if it's good or bad. If we collect an entire carriage, we'll send an entire carriage. How about it? "
Feng Tianyu nodded, "That's a good idea." She then waved to Xiang Rong: "Third young miss, come over here."
Xiang Rong happily ran towards the back, and Xuan Tiange gave them another carriage. Feng Yu Heng saw that everything had been arranged properly and quickly urged the driver to hurry along.
Xuan Tianming told her: "The East and South gates have the most people gathered. The North and West gates have relatively fewer people. Soldiers have already been sent over, and the palace has sent some imperial physicians to follow along. There shouldn't be too many problems. The South has the most refugees because there's a lot of rain in the South, so there will naturally be a lot more refugees. Let's head South first. "
The group of carriages headed toward the South gate. When they finally stopped, they heard what seemed to be a rumbling sound ahead. She frowned: "Is there still thunder?"
Xuan Tianming furrowed his brow tightly, "I fear that it's not thunder."
Just as this was said, a voice came from outside: "Has his Highness and county princess arrived?"
They could tell that the person speaking was Wang Zhuo. Wang Chuan walked forward and lifted the curtain of the imperial carriage. They saw Wang Zhuo standing outside in the rain, loudly saying: "His Highness, it's not good. The refugees outside want to charge in. They are currently working together to ram into the city gates!"
The two felt their heads swell from hearing this and quickly got up to put on their raincoats. They then exited the imperial carriage together. While walking, Xuan Tianming asked: "Are there no tents set up outside the city?"
Wang Zhuo said: "There are, but there's no point in just setting up tents. The main thing is that they don't have anything to eat. Last night, many people died. The majority of them died from starvation. Early this morning, it was as though the refugees had discussed it. They all gathered together and did their best to ram into the city gates. "
Xuan Tianming angrily roared: "Nonsense! Will there be food once they come in? Are they fleeing or are they robbing? "
Seeing him become angry, Wang Zhuo did not dare say anything else, fearing that Xuan Tianming would give the order to kill them all in his anger.
But in truth, Xuan Tianming did not have that sort of thought. He just tightly held Feng Yu Heng's hand and walked up the city gate tower. Behind them, Xuan Tian Ge and Bai Fu Rong also followed. Everyone's expressions were gloomy, and their hearts were in a panic.
When everyone finally stood at the top of the city gate, Feng Yu Heng looked down and saw countless refugees gathered outside the city. There were those who were sick and hungry and could not move, thus they lay in the mud. There were those who were still strong and desperately banged their heads against the city gate. There were children that were crying endlessly. There were elderly and women that were kneeling on the ground and silently praying.
She made a rough estimate. There were at least tens of thousands of refugees outside.
The hand that was being held by Xuan Tianming gradually became cold. Even if it was Feng Yu Heng, she could not help but feel a sense of fear when faced with this sort of scene.
The sound of the refugees ramming into the city gates was deafening. From time to time, there would be people who were heavily injured and would be replaced. Cries of "Let us in" filled her ears, and the city gate tower beneath her feet seemed to tremble.
Xuan Tianming could feel her emotions and tightened his grip on her hand. He then leaned down and gently said into her ear: "Don't be afraid. With me here, the world will not fall into chaos."
