"The epidemic situation is severe right now. The sick people are quarantined outside the city. Don't worry. Ninth Brother, Lord Anjia and Afan are surrounded by many doctors and imperial physicians. They will be fine. Moreover, Afan is very experienced in controlling the epidemic and has put forward many useful suggestions. The epidemic outside the city has been gradually brought under control," the Fourteenth Prince comforted Jiang Ranli slowly.
"But, the Fourth Master just said that the epidemic has not been brought under control yet." Jiang Ranli has not forgotten Yinzhen's silence when he talked about the epidemic. Now she can't tell whether the Fourteenth Prince was telling the truth or Yinzhen's silence was true.
Upon hearing this, the Fourteenth Prince looked at Yinzhen unhappily, then pulled Jiang Ranli aside.
Yinzhen turned his head to look at Jiang Ranli who was being pulled away by the Fourteenth Prince, his face slightly pale.
"Li'er, listen to me. The disaster outside is gradually under control, but it has not been completely controlled. However, things are not as bad as you think. Those doctors are extremely capable doctors, and the imperial physicians have faced such epidemics many times. So, listen to me and don't worry, okay?" said the Fourteenth Prince.
Looking at his eyes as bright as the stars, Jiang Ranli nodded. She believed that the Fourteenth Prince would not lie to her, and she also believed in the strength of the imperial doctors and physicians of the Qing Dynasty. She believed even more in Yinzhen, Anjia Oren, and Jiang Fan. She believed that they would be fine.
Seeing her nod, Fourteenth Prince breathed a sigh of relief. No one knew how much he was afraid that Jiang Ranli would not believe him, and no one knew how much he was afraid that she would rush out of the city gate.
"Fourteenth Master, now that the city gates are closed, how can the victims inside the city make a living? How can the victims outside the city make a living?"
After calming herself down, Jiang Ranli asked. She had not left the house in the past few days, and the Tenth Prince, the Fourteenth Prince, and Wu Yanqing had not allowed her to worry about things outside, so now she was completely in the dark and knew nothing about the current relief situation.
"There are porridge stalls outside the city and there are also porridge stalls inside the city," replied the Fourteenth Prince.
Jiang Ranli nodded and looked into the distance, where many disaster victims were sitting or standing in fear. Looking at them, Jiang Ranli remembered some disaster movies he had seen in modern times. Famine broke out and people could hardly make a living. In the end, they ate grass, tree bark, soil and even cannibalism.
Fortunately, fortunately the disaster has not yet reached that serious level, fortunately.
Jiang Ranli felt bitter. Although she had not reconciled with Yinzhen before, she had Jiang Fan by her side. Now Yinzhen was gone, Jiang Fan was gone, and Anjia Oren was gone too. She seemed to have lost all her strength and felt very confused.
The Fourteenth Prince looked at her and raised his hand to hug her and comfort her, but when he raised his hand, he put it down again.
In the following time, Jiang Ranli no longer stayed in the mansion every day, but rushed around to provide relief to the victims as before. Whenever she had free time, she would go to the city wall and look outside the city, hoping to see Yinzhen, but she always returned disappointed.
The Tenth Prince, the Fourteenth Prince, and Wu Yanqing told her many times to have a good rest and not to run around so as not to exhaust herself, but she didn't listen and always found various excuses to run away, which made the Tenth Prince, the Fourteenth Prince, and Wu Yanqing very helpless.
Yinzhen stood at the foot of the city wall, looked up at the figure on the wall, and clenched his hands.
"Does she still come here every day?"
"In response to the Fourth Master, Madam Jiang comes here every day," the soldier guarding the city replied.
Yinzhen nodded and asked, "Is there any news about the Ninth Master?"
"To answer the Fourth Master's question, not yet."
