Phoenix Reborn: The Peerless Fourth Lady

Chapter 277: Plague (Ⅱ)

With Qingyan's words, Xuanyuan Yuzhen raised her hand and rubbed her head, "Yan'er, you can't force such a thing."

Looking at the expression on Xuanyuan Yuzhen’s face, Qingyan knew what he was thinking about. Maybe Xuanyuan Yuzhen was cold and cruel, but for Qingyan, it would be nice to have such a brother. .

Besides, he is still her aunt's only son, how could she sit idly by.

"Four brother, don't worry, we can definitely solve the problems caused by this plague." Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen and smiled.

Xuanyuan Yuzhen nodded seriously looking at the serious expression on Qingyan's face.

After they reported everything, Wu Keshan came over and retelled what happened recently. The main thing was that it was not very similar to what they had just learned. The final point was that the plague was caused by man. That's why it became what it is now.

"Zhu Zhifu, we are going to the place where the people are besieged now, you take us along." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at Wu Keshan and said in a deep voice.

Listening to Xuanyuan Yuzhen’s cold attitude, Wu Keshan immediately lost his confidence. To be honest, he did not agree that everyone should go to that place. After all, that place is the source of the plague. If they are all infected with the plague, it is estimated that the whole Funeral in Wucheng is not an exaggeration.

He naturally knew how much Emperor Hongjia loved Xuanyuan Yuzhen, and he knew the image of Xuanyuan Yuzhen among the people.

But now when he heard Xuanyuan Yuzhen's request, he didn't know how to speak.

"Wu Zhifu." Murong Jingxuan said, patted the incomparable shoulder, "You should believe me and wait."

Listening to Murong Jingxuan's words, Wu Zhifu raised his head and looked at Murong Jingxuan, "His Royal Highness, the lower officials are just worried that you will be infected with the plague, not that they don't believe you."

Xuanyuan Yuzhen naturally understood Wu Keshan's good intentions, but now they have arrived in Wucheng. If they don't investigate this matter clearly, then what is the point of their visit to Wucheng?

"Zhifu Wu, you can rest assured, if we are all infected with the plague, then even I will be killed on the spot with the innocent people." Xuanyuan Yuzhen looked at Wu Keshan and said calmly.

Seeing the death-like expression on Xuanyuan Yuzhen's face, Wu Keshan looked at them and nodded seriously, "Since your Royal Highness has already spoken, then the next official will take you there." Wu Keshan held his hands tightly when he thought of this. His only hope now is that they can all come back alive.

"By the way, if a man in black comes to look for you at that time, you can take him directly to the people." Murong Jingxuan thought that Chonglou was also on the way, so he faced Wu Keshan. Seriously.

"Don't worry, Your Royal Highness." Wu Keshan looked at Murong Jingxuan and spoke respectfully.

Wu Keshan took them all to the place where the people were besieged. Those people were all thin and yellow, as if they hadn’t eaten all day long, or they could not find anything to eat at all, they could only endure hunger. Starved until now.

The demons and the others wanted to go in very much, but they were stopped by Qingyan. Qingyan watched them seriously and said, "Monsters, the people on your side send some food. I see the people here for a long time. I haven't eaten anything. Obviously, these officers and soldiers didn't give them food."

"It would be better for these people to starve them to death. They were infected with the plague in the province. If it weren't for such refugees, we would not be infected with the plague in Wucheng..." But the officer and soldier fell straight down without speaking. , And a silver lancet was stuck in his throat.

"This princess tells you, whoever dares to abuse these people will end up just like him." Qingyan looked at the officials and said in a deep voice, "You are also raised by your parents. Just imagine if your parents What do you think about being trapped here and not giving them food?"

All those people were silent when they heard Qingyan's words, and then they respectfully opened the bamboo door for Qingyan and the others.

"Miss, you must pay attention to your body." Yaoyan stood outside watching Qingyan and said with a worried expression, "I will do what you ordered."

Qingyan looked at the monsters and nodded earnestly, then followed Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yuzhen and turned and left.

There are hundreds of people besieged here. It can even be said that people in a village have been besieged again, or that only people with similar plague symptoms will be sent here.

And before they went deep into the depths, there were waves of stench, which should be the smell of rotting corpses.

When they walked in, they discovered that these villagers had dug a big pit, and the bodies of dead people had been thrown in the big pit. It was because the accumulated bodies no longer knew how many they were, so they issued Such a stench.

"Four brother, I have Huozhezi here, burn the bodies of these people." Qingyan looked at the expression on Xuanyuan Yuzhen's face and spoke lightly.

But as soon as Qingyan's words fell, someone in the room began to refute, "They are all our relatives! According to our rules, we must be buried in the sky, otherwise we will be retributed."

"Yes, yes! We have already suffered retribution. If we don't practice the celestial burial, our entire Wucheng will be buried."

The so-called sky burial is to place the corpse in an open space after death, and let the snakes, insects, rats and ants chew the corpse to complete their ultimate mission.

This is probably why they have not used cremation all the time.

"You heard me say that the plague in Wucheng was caused by man-made, not a natural disaster." Qingyan looked at the people indifferently and said, "If you don't cremate these people now, then these people will die after they die. Peaceful."

"Yes, these people have died of illness. If you don't want more people to be sent here, then you must burn these corpses now, otherwise once the plague spreads, more people will be sacrificed. Life." Xuanyuan Yuzhen watched them calmly and said.

Someone among them recognized that it was Xuanyuan Yuzhen, the fourth prince of Donghe Country, who knew that Xuanyuan Yuzhen cared about the people. If not, he would not take the initiative to invite Ying to this place.

He watched Xuanyuan Yuzhen take the lead and said, "He is the fourth prince of the living Bodhisattva of Donghe Kingdom! Let's listen to the words of the fourth prince and burn the corpses of these relatives. Think about it if more people come. At this point, it is our people who are suffering!"
