Seeing Mu Jin run towards the disaster victims, Su Yuntian and Su Yi said nothing more and turned to follow in the direction Mu Jin went.
After the officers and soldiers quickly dealt with the troublemakers, the chaotic scene was brought under control, and the disaster victims gradually regained their composure.
Not far away, soldiers and some rescue workers were carrying filth and dead victims from outside the city onto carts, which were then taken to designated locations for burning and burying.
Temporary tents were quickly erected, and at the same time, a soup kitchen was set up opposite the tents. Large pots were set up by rescue workers, who began cooking rice porridge.
Following Mu Jin's instructions, they registered the sick and the unseen people separately, then placed them in the corresponding resettlement tents, and quickly distributed quilts and winter clothes to those disaster victims who complied with the regulations.
By evening, rescue workers had finally completed the resettlement of several thousand disaster victims.
Because Mu Jin knew medicine, she and the medical officers were busy moving between the tents today, diagnosing the illnesses of the disaster victims.
They also distributed medicine tags of different colors based on whether the victims were asymptomatic or had mild to severe symptoms. The victims took their medicine tags to the medicine stalls on November 11th to collect their herbal medicine.
Today, Shiyi has been simmering medicine in the herbal medicine shed. Six earthenware jars have been set up in front of him, and different amounts of medicine are used to simmer in each pair of jars according to the symptoms of asymptomatic, mild, and severe cases.
After a busy day, Mu Jin left the tent for the seriously ill patients, her back aching. Seeing the long queue still forming in front of the medicine tent not far away, she couldn't help but walk over.
Outside the medicine shed, the clinic was distributing herbal decoctions to patients. Mu Jin lifted the curtain of the medicine shed and saw Eleven with his back to her, intently putting herbs into the medicine vat.
Mu Jin called out "Eleven," and only then did Eleven turn around. Upon seeing that it was Mu Jin, she smiled and greeted her as "Miss," before busily adding water and medicine to the medicine vat.
Seeing that Eleven's face was unusually pale, Mu Jin asked, "Hasn't he eaten yet? Go out and find something to eat. I'll take over for you here."
When Eleven heard Mu Jin ask this, his back stiffened involuntarily. He then turned to Mu Jin and said, "I'll eat after I finish distributing the medicinal herbs. Miss, you must be tired after a long day. Let's go back to the camp and rest."
When Mu Jin heard that Shiyi insisted on finishing the decoction of the medicinal herbs before eating, she didn't try to persuade him further. After all, there were still many disaster victims queuing outside the medicine shed waiting to receive their medicine.
Before leaving the medicine tent, Mu Jin reminded Eleven to eat, and then left the tent.
Mu Jin and the disaster relief personnel who went out of the city need to wait until the plague is under control before they can return to the city, so they need to stay in the camp outside the city during this period.
It was already 9 PM, the time for Mu Jin's daily meeting with some disaster relief officials to discuss the day's relief work. From afar, Mu Jin could see that the meeting tent was already full of people, so she quickened her pace and walked towards the tent.
As soon as Mu Jin stepped outside the council tent, she heard people inside talking about her.
One of the officials said to Su Yuntian, "Prince Yun usually hides his princess too well. If it weren't for this plague, we wouldn't have known that Princess Yun has such abilities. If the princess were a man, I believe we would all choose our official positions according to her."
After the physician finished speaking, everyone else present echoed his sentiments, expressing their heartfelt admiration for Mu Jin.
Today, at the disaster relief site, Mu Jin not only comforted the victims with patience and kindness, but also did her best to help treat critically ill patients, demonstrating her dedication and professionalism.
At first, both the disaster relief workers and the affected people believed that Mu Jin's appearance as the Princess Consort of Yun outside the plague-stricken city was merely a formality to appease the people and win over Su Yuntian, who was vying for the throne. After all, winning the hearts of the people would bring them one step closer to the throne.
Not wanting to spend the entire day comforting the people, Mu Jin also went deep into the most severely ill patients' tents to personally treat each critically ill patient, clear their phlegm, and administer acupuncture.
One critically ill patient coughed so badly that she sprayed bloody phlegm all over herself. When the doctor next to her saw the patient uncontrollably spraying bloody phlegm, he instinctively moved away, fearing that the blood, which carried plague germs, would contaminate him in any way.
Mu Jin was unaffected by the patient's bloody sputum. She simply helped the patient cough up phlegm while instructing the doctor behind her to fetch medicine from the pharmacy. After the doctor brought the medicine, Mu Jin personally fed it to the patient before getting up to change out of her dirty clothes outside the tent. Once she had changed, she turned back to treat the other seriously ill patients.
Throughout this process, Mu Jin displayed neither the airs of a princess nor complained of hardship or fatigue, truly overturning the world's perception of this princess who was not favored by the Prince of Yun.
Only then did people truly realize that Princess Yun, born into the General's Mansion, was just like her father and brothers, dedicating herself to the Dongyue Kingdom and its people without complaint or regret. Mu Jin's spirit of protecting the people in times of crisis brought warmth and hope to everyone present.
Su Yuntian was busy with other disaster relief matters today and could not stay by Mu Jin's side all the time. When the people he sent to protect Mu Jin reported Mu Jin's movements today, they were also shocked by Mu Jin's actions.
Hearing everyone praising Mu Jin, Su Yuntian couldn't help but feel happy.
"I am also reluctant to let her suffer like this, but since he has such good intentions, I cannot restrain her. To have such a queen is truly my great fortune. On behalf of my wife, I thank you all for your kind words."
Hearing the others praise her, Mu Jin raised an eyebrow, not feeling anything was wrong. But when she heard Su Yuntian thank the others on her behalf, she felt extremely uncomfortable. So Mu Jin lifted the curtain and went inside.
When Mu Jin entered, she found that Su Yuntian and Su Yi were sitting in the main seats of the council tent, and all the other people were present.
When everyone saw Mu Jin enter the tent, they all stood up and bowed to her, saying, "You've worked hard, Princess Yun!"
Mu Jin returned the greeting to the people who bowed to her and said "Thank you for your hard work" to them.
Seeing Mu Jin enter the account, Su Yuntian walked to Mu Jin's side with a smile and said affectionately, "Why did it take so long? Come and sit down and rest."
Watching Su Yuntian pretend to be affectionate with her in front of others, she couldn't help but roll her eyes. She ignored Su Yuntian and went to sit down in her seat.
Seeing that Mu Jin ignored him in front of everyone, Su Yuntian coughed to cover his embarrassment. He followed Mu Jin back to the main seat and took a sip of tea.
Seeing Su Yuntian getting the short end of the stick with Mu Jin, Su Yi couldn't help but chuckle mischievously.
Su Yi poured a cup of tea and handed it to Mu Jin. "You've worked hard. Have some tea to soothe your throat."
Mu Jin was indeed tired and thirsty after a busy day. Without being coy, she thanked Su Yi and picked up the teacup to drink.
Seeing Mu Jin drink the tea he offered, he casually met Su Yuntian's gaze, a playful smile playing on his lips.
