Seeing such a chaotic scene, Chi Mu became more and more worried.
"Why don't I take you back to the capital first? The doctors in the capital will definitely be able to confirm whether you have..."
"Chi Mu, I am the daughter of a miracle doctor. Since I was born, I have been learning medicine from my father. I know exactly how I am now. Although I have not been infected, I cannot just let him go and watch these tragic past events with cold eyes."
A few days had passed, but apart from the fever, Shen Yuerong had no other discomfort, so we knew that she was not infected.
Despite this, Shen Yuerong did not want to give up these poor people.
"They have traveled thousands of miles from Jiangnan to the capital, not only to seek justice, but also to seek a way to survive. Now you and I are just throwing them here, leaving them alone. I'm afraid they will die here in the end."
No one in the capital would be willing to spend time treating them.
Chi Mu has never been able to get over Shen Yuerong.
"Are you really planning to stay?"
She nodded.
"Okay, I'll go back to the capital... I have some important matters to discuss with His Majesty. Once I've dealt with them, I'll come back to be with you."
…
Inside the palace, in the imperial study.
The emperor looked at Chi Mu who rushed in hurriedly and spoke with some confusion.
"You shouldn't be accompanying her to continue fooling around in the suburbs at this time. Why do you have to accompany those people from Jiangnan... How can you appear here?"
"I just want to ask your Majesty one question. Was the sudden outbreak of the epidemic the work of your Majesty or the Crown Prince?"
"You suspect... that the Crown Prince and I want those people to die?"
If it were someone else, he would have been dragged out and beaten to death by now.
He knew that he shouldn't have doubted the emperor so much, but when he thought of those innocent people, he felt even more that... these things were related to them.
"Your Majesty, just tell me yes or no!"
"no."
He looked up at him, "When you decided to do that, I also realized that what happened in Jiangnan might not be as simple as it seemed. Although I don't want to fall out with some clans because of them, I can't watch my people being humiliated like this."
Although I can’t…it doesn’t mean I can just stand by and watch.
"The reason why the Queen Mother didn't bother Shen Yuerong again is because I came forward and said some good things. I am helping you."
After hearing what the emperor said, he was a little hesitant and felt that he shouldn't have doubted His Majesty so much in the beginning.
If it is an epidemic...the subsequent treatment will become more difficult.
"Those people are now sick. Although it has not yet affected the capital, it does not mean that they can be stopped outside the city forever. Weicheng begs His Majesty to provide resources."
"I have asked people to prepare enough medicinal herbs and have sent them to the suburbs. I hope these can help Shen Yuerong and you."
As the king of a country, he still doesn't understand medicine.
"I have also instructed the Imperial Hospital to do their best to develop an antidote. As soon as there is a way, I will have them contact you immediately. I will never let the two of you... suffer like this."
He nodded.
At least it is certain that there is no instigator behind this, but all this is just a fact.
When I returned to the suburbs, the first batch of medicinal herbs had already been delivered.
Shen Yuerong was very surprised, after all, what she had used before were the ones that were left over from her hands.
"How come there are herbs?"
"Your Majesty sent it. He never thought that the people of Jiangnan would suffer such a disaster. He has also instructed the Imperial Hospital to speed up the development of an antidote. Let you and I... follow the prescription you wrote before and keep it in reserve. We will definitely try our best to get the antidote."
But such words are just consolation to them.
Especially Shen Yuerong.
I have been influenced by miracle doctors since I was a child. I can tell what diseases can be cured and what cannot be cured just by looking at them.
Although this epidemic does not seem to be serious.
Unfortunately, the disease was hidden for too long and broke out very quickly. For example, nearly twenty people have died in the past ten days.
If this continues, everyone's hearts will become more and more floating.
As usual, Shen Yuerong had someone boil a soup to prevent infection, and then she gathered the people and asked them to drink the soup with her.
At this moment, the few people hiding in the crowd couldn't help but speak again.
"Do you have any solution? Are those nobles in the capital just waiting for all of us to die, so that no one will mention the flood in Jiangnan without anyone to take charge?"
"Yes! We have been left here for such a long time and no one has cared about us. It was said before that the gentleman was the prince's subordinate, but we haven't seen him for a long time. He should have fled on his own. Only you two are left? I wonder if you are not valued by the court, so they treat you as sacrifices!"
"I heard that the prince and the crown prince have always been at odds with each other. Could it be that the crown prince wants to frame the prince and use us as sacrifices?"
Someone even knocked over the medicine bowl and looked at Shen Yuerong sharply, hoping to get an explanation.
Shen Yuerong looked at Chi Mu somewhat helplessly and quickly began to explain.
"These are all nonsense. No matter what happened between the Crown Prince and the Prince, you are living people. We will never ignore it. These medicines are to prevent you from getting infected. You see, since you drank this tea, you have rarely been infected."
But they didn't think it was Shen Yuerong's credit at all, and instead made sarcastic remarks.
"Is this your fault? It's because you separated us all. I haven't seen my husband for a long time. I would rather die than continue to be separated from my husband like this. I'm even afraid that I won't be able to see him for the last time before he dies."
"Yes, my husband was like that before. You said he got sick and took them away. Now so many days have passed, I don't even know if my husband is still alive."
Someone provoked a dispute, and even those innocent people, who were worried about whether their loved ones were still alive, also had a conflict.
Although Shen Yuerong wanted to talk to them properly, the situation was too chaotic at the moment, so Chi Mu immediately ordered someone to "Control the situation."
Fang Mu and his men quickly took control of the situation and even took under control all the people who said those words at the beginning.
Just when everyone was a little panicked, fearing that they would be caught in the next second, he spoke.
"Everything Miss Shen does now is for your own good. If you can't appreciate it, then just fend for yourself."
