The Fourth Lady

Chapter 277 Pestilence (Ⅱ)

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yvzhen raised his hand and rubbed Qingyan's head. "Yanyan, we can't force

that.

Seeing Xuanyuan Yvzhen's expression, Qingyan could tell what he was thinking. Maybe Xuanyuan

Yvzhen was cold and cruel, but for Qingyan, it was good to have an elder brother like him.

Besides, he was the only son of her aunt. How could she turn a blind eye to him.

"fourth brother, you can rest assured. We will solve the problem caused by the pestilence in a proper

way." Qingyan stared at Xuanyuan Yvzhen and asked him with a smile.

Xuanyuan Yvzhen stared at the serious expression on Qingyan's face and nodded earnestly.

After reporting all of the things, Wu Keshan came over and told them what had happened recently.

What he said was very similar to what they had just heard. The key point was that the plague was

caused by people.

"We are going to the place where people are being quarantined. Can you bring us there, Wu Keshan?"

Xuanyuan Yvzhen asked in a low voice.

After hearing what Xuanyuan Yvzhen had said, Wu Keshan lost his confidence. To tell the truth, he did

not agree with everyone to go there. After all, that place was the source of the rabbit pestilence. If they

were infected with the rabbit pestilence, the whole Mao City would die with them.

He knew how much Emperor Hongjia used to dote on Xuanyuan Yvzhen, and he also knew the image

of Xuanyuan Yvzhen in common people.

But now as he heard this request from Xuanyuan Yvzhen, he did not know how to say.

"Cadre Wu." Murong Jingxuan patted on his shoulder. "You need to trust me."

Hearing his words, Cadre Wu looked up at him and said, "Your Highness, I'm just worried that you may

be infected with the rabbit pestilence. It's not that I don't trust you."

Xuanyuan Yvzhen surely understood Wu Keshan's good intentions, but since he had already arrived in

the Mao City, what was the point of them coming to this city if they didn't find out this matter?

"Cadre Wu, you can rest assured. If we are really infected with the plague, you can kill us on the spot

with those innocent people." Xuanyuan Yvzhen asked calmly as he stared at Wu Keshan.

Seeing Xuanyuan Yvzhen's unflinching expression, Wu Keshan looked at them and nodded earnestly.

"Since your Highness has asked, I'll take you there." When Wu Keshan thought of this, he clenched his

fists. His only hope now was that both of them could come back alive.

"By the way, if a man in black comes to look for you, you just take him to us." Murong Jingxuan

reminded of Chonglou, who was on his way here.

"Please don't worry, your highness." Wu Keshan greeted Murong Jingxuan respectfully.

Wu Keshan took them to the place where the people were quarantined. The men were black and blue

as if they hadn't eaten anything for a long time. Perhaps they didn't have anything to eat at all, so they

could only endure the hunger until now.

Yaochi wanted to get inside, but Qingyan stopped him. She looked at them and said earnestly, "Yaochi,

ask your men have send us some food. The people here haven't eaten anything for a long time.

Apparently, these officers and soldiers don't bring any food to them."

"They'd better starve to death, so that they won't be infected with the rabbit pestilence. If this hadn't

happened, we would never have been infected with the rabbit pestilence in the city..." The soldier fell

down on the ground before he could finish his words. There was a silver willow leaf flying knife at his

throat.

"Let me tell you, if you dare to mistreat these people, you will end up just like him." Qingyan looked at

those officers and said, "you are raised by your parents too. Imagine it. What will you think if your

parents were trapped here and refused to give them food?"

All the people remained silent when they heard Qingyan's words. Then, they opened the door made of

bamboo for Qingyan and others with respect. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Miss, you must take care of yourself." Standing outside, Yaochi looked at her with a worried face and

said, "I'll do as you said."

Seeing Yaochi and others, Qingyan nodded earnestly, then she turned around and left with Murong

Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yvzhen.

The quarantined area consisted of hundreds of people, or even hundreds of people living in the same

village were all besieged again, or in other words, all the people with the symptoms of the rabbit

pestilence would be sent here.

And before they went deep into, a burst of stinky smell came, presumably the smell of those rotten

corpses.

When they came in, they found that the villagers had already built a big crater, and inside the crater

were all the bodies of the dead. It was just because they didn't know how many bodies they had

accumulated that they had such a stinking smell.

"fourth brother, I have fire starter. Burn these bodies," Seeing the expression on Xuanyuan Yvzhen's

face, Qingyan asked indifferently.

Someone retorted, "they are our family! According to our rules, they must be buried through celestial

ritual, or we will receive retribution from god. "

"Yes! We have already received retribution. If we don't do it, the whole Mao City will be doomed. "

The so-called the celestial ritual was to leave the dead body on an open space, allowing those snakes

and ants to gnaw the dead body, and complete its ultimate mission.

This was probably the reason why they didn't cremate those corpses.

"Listen to me, the rabbit pestilence in the even city was caused by people, not god." "If you don't bury

these bodies now, there will be no peace after they die," said Qingyan indifferently, looking at those

people.

"Yes, these people all died of illness. If you don't want more people to be sent here, you have to burn

these corpses right now. Otherwise, if the rabbit pestilence spread, more people will lose their lives."

Xuanyuan Yvzhen stared at them and calmly stated.

One of the people recognized who was speaking. He was Xuanyuan Yvzhen, the Fourth Prince of the

Donghe Kingdom. That person knew that Xuanyuan Yvzhen cared about people. Otherwise, he would

not have volunteered to come to this place.

So he turned to Xuanyuan Yvzhen and said, "he is the Fourth Prince of the Donghe Kingdom, a

Bodhisattva! Let's listen to his words, burn the corpses of these people. Think about it. If more people

come here, we will suffer worse! "
