Chapter 41 Heartbreak



But the little prince didn't even blink.

This tube of solvent was stolen by 1002. In order to increase credibility, 1002 also added a layer of golden special effects.

After the little man finished speaking, he looked at the tube of golden liquid. The officials were in an uproar, and even Emperor Mingxi fell into deep thought.

"May I ask Your Majesty, what is contagion?"

"Contagion, as the name suggests, means smallpox can infect those who are close to you. What a clever word."

"It's truly divine! Is this transparent appearance also something from heaven?"

"But what is the meaning of this free willpower?"

An old minister asked the young prince eagerly.

Yan Chengyu couldn't explain it either, and looked at 1002 eagerly.

"No more worrying about hair growth, and no more itching."

The man was horrified. If this method really worked, then smallpox, which had caused so many people to suffer from heartbreak, would be a piece of cake.

His mother gave birth to six children, four of whom died of smallpox. He contracted the disease but was lucky enough to survive.

He just had a face full of pockmarks, and because of this, even though he had a very high ranking in the imperial examination, he could only get a seventh-rank official position.

If it weren't for the fact that people only look at ability nowadays, he might be a county magistrate in some remote corner of the country.

"Your Highness, please accept my bow!" Although it was just a bow, the minister actually performed the grand ceremony of three kneelings and nine kowtows, and the little prince couldn't pull it up even with all his strength.

With the title of the little god backing him up, who would suspect that this golden liquid was fake and that the cowpox treatment method was ineffective?

Emperor Mingxi immediately issued an edict, not only to collect many sick cows infected with smallpox to vaccinate people from all over the country, but also to concentrate medical resources and tilt them towards Jinghuai County.

This move is intended to tell the world that Dazhao has not given up on his people!

All the civil and military officials started to move and spontaneously did what the young prince said.

Jinghuai County.

"Mom, wake up. The county is distributing grain today, and I've brought it for you." Yue Tangning lightly touched his skinny mother.

The woman's face and neck were covered with dense rashes. She opened her eyes and said, "Ning'er, hurry up."

She was so weak that she had no strength left, but her daughter was only sixteen years old. How could she let such a flower-like girl wither away here?

Tears appeared on Yue Tangning's face. "I won't leave, mother. You are still alive. Everything will be fine."

These words were just to comfort her mother and herself. Now the county was under the guard of soldiers, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Countless people had died there.

Yue Tangning lifted her sleeves, looked at the red spots, smiled bitterly, and knew that she was going to die too.

It would be better to die with my mother.

The same scene was happening all over Jinghuai County. Everyone knew they were dead, but they still hoped for life.

Even if it's slim.
