After finally seeing all the patients, Shen Yuerong returned to the commander's tent.
Even in the tent that Chi Mu had prepared himself, he could still feel the cold wind blowing in from outside on this autumn day.
Not to mention the windbreaks casually piled up by ordinary people.
"Now I think the more important thing is how to arrange their residence. There is no place to shelter from the wind in the suburbs. If I keep them here, even today, I can use medicine to control their condition, but I am afraid that it will affect them if they are exposed to the wind and rain all the time."
"Your Majesty has ordered that these people will never be allowed to enter the capital easily, so this suburb is their only place to go."
“Is it possible to temporarily organize a…?”
Chi Mu shook his head. "The Ministry of Industry will never send money. What you and I are doing now can only be subsidized by the money from the Shen family and the palace."
The emperor never said that these things could be reimbursed, so it means that these things are probably the responsibility of the two of them.
"You and I are not poor, so I am not afraid of wasting money. I am just afraid that what I have done is not good enough and these innocent people have been wronged."
"So what are your plans?"
Shen Yuerong thought about it and told him what was in her mind.
And he... there was some hesitation in his tone.
"Have you decided to do this?"
He has always supported Shen Yuerong, so no matter what happens, he will stand behind her.
"We have to find them a place that can temporarily shelter them from the wind and rain. Otherwise... we can only watch them get sick and die one by one."
Chi Mu knew there was no way to stop Shen Yuerong.
"Just do what you want to do. If there is anything missing, just tell my people and they will naturally help you prepare it."
Shen Yuerong nodded.
the next day.
Shen Yuerong found a few men among those people who were in good health and could do some heavy work.
Although there were about a hundred people, there were only a few adult men.
She had no choice but to gather these folks together again.
"Everyone... I know you have come from afar and are already exhausted, but there is one thing I would like to ask you to work with me to handle."
"Divine Doctor, tell us what you want to do... We are all willing to follow you."
"yes!"
Some people began to support Shen Yuerong, and she told them what she was thinking.
"Although you are now in the capital, the situation in Jiangnan is too complicated. Your Majesty and the Crown Prince are also trying to understand the situation. For the time being, they are really overwhelmed. You can't always sleep in the open air, otherwise your bodies will only feel worse. So I would like to ask those of you who can work to help me clean up the wild land in the suburbs and give you a real place to stay."
Now it is just a place surrounded by a few broken iron sheets and plastic fences, and all their heat sources come from those few fires.
But if a strong wind blew at night and the fire was extinguished, they would probably freeze to death in the autumn wind.
His expression was somewhat hesitant.
"Divine Doctor, it's not that we don't want to believe you, but we want to ask, if we really settle down in this wilderness, will the capital no longer care about us, and our vitality will never be saved?"
"You have settled down here, and the prince and I are here too. We will stay with you until this matter is resolved. I hope you can trust me and the prince."
Shen Yuerong knew that with her status, there was no way she could convince them, so she could only bring up Chi Mu.
"Prince? Is he the prince who went to Jiangnan and was willing to personally deal with the flood?"
Chi Mu didn't expect that his fame had spread so widely.
The reason why he showed up was because he was afraid that Shen Yuerong's plan would be blocked. He also wanted to use his identity to get some convenience, but he didn't expect that she had her own rhythm.
Just as Shen Yuerong was about to speak, she heard a man's voice, neither loud nor soft, coming from the door not far away.
"Everyone."
He held a jade pendant in his hand, which was a symbol that proved his status as a prince.
"I am the prince you are talking about, and now I am willing to testify for the miracle doctor. The miracle doctor and I will never ignore you no matter what happens. I also hope that everyone can follow the miracle doctor's footsteps, save their own lives first, and let the sick people return to health as soon as possible, so that... you can live a long life."
After hearing his words, naturally... many people began to agree, and some were even eager to try it.
"I can!"
“I’m coming too!”
“Let’s come too!”
At once, many people stood up to help Shen Yuerong achieve her wish.
She quickly assigned some tasks to them.
Just five days.
The place that originally relied on only a few pieces of iron sheets to block the wind has been rebuilt with high curtains, and the tent has achieved the most basic warmth.
Shen Yuerong. He also specially ordered people to prepare iron nets, but this time the sharp points of the iron nets were directed towards the outside instead of them.
Seeing that they were surrounded by iron nets again, their faces were filled with fear.
"Don't be afraid, everyone. These iron nets exist... to prevent wild beasts from entering the wild. Previously, you had been lighting torches at night. Those beasts are afraid of the light and naturally dare not approach. But now you have a tent that can accommodate you, so naturally... you can't light a fire day and night. Then, those beasts that have long regarded you as unsuitable food will actually come over."
Although there are soldiers guarding the area, humans are ultimately no match for wild beasts.
Those people finally felt relieved, and at this moment, those people who had caused trouble before spoke up again.
"You built us a house, fed us, gave us medicine, and even brought us warm clothes. It seems as if you want to keep us here for a long time. Have you never thought about redressing our grievances, but just want to keep us here?"
Once one person asks, another person will naturally start asking.
For a moment, everyone was asking relevant questions and waiting for responses.
Shen Yuerong. He looked at the noisy people with some disgust, and finally, he made a promise to the people of Jiangnan.
"We have already reported everything that happened in Jiangnan to your majesty, and your majesty has already sent people to Jiangnan to verify it. I hope you can believe me and your majesty."
