Chapter 781 Plague

Outside Liangzhou City, a large number of patrol cars set out to set off, with the Kowloon Emperor flag that was unique to Zhou Chengxuan holding powerlessly.

This hot weather makes everything in the world feel a little listless.

The team of thousands of people arrived with loud gongs and drums and a jubilant momentum, but when they left, they were a bit hurried and a little nervous.

After receiving the urgent news from the capital, it was supposed to take two days to return to the capital.

However, there were so many people and so much luggage and supplies that it was impossible to pack them all in a short period of time. Liangzhou City also had to prepare some medicine for the Holy Driver and bring food on the road in case of unexpected events, so the large group of people did not leave until the fifth day.

.

"I finally left. Without this plague, I'm afraid this saint would have to stay in Beiliang for two or three more months." Chu Yucheng said with a chuckle.

These generals have been put through a lot of trouble these days. Zhou Chengxuan always brings a group of generals with him wherever he goes, and he wields swords from time to time.

"This plague is difficult to deal with, and it might cause big trouble." Chen Yue said with narrowed eyes.

He always had an ominous feeling. The imperial war on the frontier had just ended a year ago, the treasury was empty, and now another plague had come.

The year of great disaster~

"Brother Chen! Let's go back. The sun is too hot here." Xue Qianqian poked her head out from behind Chen Yue, shielding the dazzling sunlight with her palms and said, her big black eyes blinking.

It turns out that Xue Chengyi specially left Xue Qianqian behind when he left Beiliang.

The epidemic broke out in Jiangnan, and it was a bit dangerous to send Xue Qianqian back to Qingzhou. Xue Chengyi was worried. But he would be very busy after returning to Beijing, and he would not have time to take care of Xue Qianqian.

So Chenyue suggested that Xue Qianqian should be left in Liangdi first. With him and Xue Leihan here, he would definitely be able to take good care of Xue Qianqian.

Xue Chengyi naturally agreed without hesitation. Of course, the inexplicable smile on the corner of the Minister of Justice's lips when they parted made Chen Yue feel a little flustered.

The iron-faced judge smiled, not sure whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

"Little girl, don't make trouble, so many people are unworthy." Chen Yue had a straight face and imitated Xue Chengyi's tone.

"Let's go, let's go, it's too hot, I'll get tanned soon." Xue Qianqian pouted and kept shaking Chen Yue's arm.

This lady from the south of the Yangtze River was not embarrassed at all, but got closer to Chenyue.

Chen Yue's face instantly turned a little red, and Chu Yucheng and others around him winked insidiously and showed meaningful smiles.

All of them are human beings, no one can see Xue Qianqian’s attitude towards Chen Yue.

"Ahem, Chu Yucheng, is everyone here?" Chen Yue turned his head and ignored Xue Qianqian hanging on his arm.

"Back to your lord, the two governors of Youzhou and Shuozhou have arrived and are discussing countermeasures with Mr. Song."

When he first learned about the plague, Chenyue sent people to summon the governors of various states to discuss matters. After a few days, these people finally arrived, hurriedly and slowly.

As for Liaodong, they only sent Xue Leihan because the journey was relatively far and they were still on the way.

"Okay, generals, please return to your camps. Chu Yucheng and Xue Tian will follow me back to the city to discuss matters!"

"promise!"

Chenyue finally looked at Xue Qianqian, touched her head and said: "Okay, don't hang around with me, go find your sister Ling'er, your brother will be here in a few days. If you don't obey me,

Let your brother take you to Liaodong."

"No, no, I won't go with him! Can't I just be obedient?"

This trick was obviously very effective. Xue Qianqian muttered, became much more honest, and walked peacefully to Prince Liang's Mansion under the protection of several personal guards.



In the meeting hall of the Liangzhou City Economic and Strategic Envoy's Office, a large group of civil servants gathered together. In addition to the two chief and deputy economic and strategic envoys from Beiliang Dao, the governors of the three states were also present.

Yu Yanbai and Wen Yuan were tired from the journey, and their eyes were a little bloodshot. Youzhou was okay, it was closer to Liangzhou.

But Yu Yanbai, who came from Shuofeng City, really hadn't slept much for two or three days. His clothes were stained with dust and his lips were a little chapped.

"What happened?" Chen Yue frowned and said, "The sky is not falling. Come, prepare two meals for Mr. Wen and Mr. Yu. Let's chat while eating."

"promise!"

"You can't disable your lord, what are you talking about?" Wen Yuan and the two waved their hands repeatedly.

"Hey, it doesn't matter. Only when you're full can you have the strength to work. These are all our own. There's nothing to be embarrassed about. At most, we can eat together." Chen Yue said with a smile.

The two of them could only nodded helplessly.

Chenyue waved his hand and said: "Master Song, please tell everyone first."

Song Zhilu, who was dressed in a bright red official robe, stood up immediately without saying much polite words. He walked to the map and said: "Taian Road is located south of Canglong River and southwest of Qingzhou. It is far away from our Liangdi, but it is not impossible.

possible spread.

According to the Beijing Emergency Report, the plague has spread to the Qingzhou area, and there have been deaths from the disease in the counties below Qingzhou. Judging from this rate of spread, the epidemic will occur in Jiangbei in less than half a month!"

"I'm afraid it won't take more than half a month~"

Chu Yucheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "In the years when I was studying at Yuelu Academy, I often traveled to both sides of the Canglong River. As spring turned to summer, caravans came and went very frequently, almost day and night.

The news of the plague was suppressed by those idiots, which resulted in the Canglong River not being blocked for such a long time. It is possible that the plague has spread to the north of the Yangtze River, but the local governments have not discovered it yet."

"This is going to be troublesome. This plague is coming with great force." Zhou Jingyao said with some worry: "More than twenty years ago, there was a plague near the capital. It lasted for half a year, and seven or eight thousand people died.

Talent is over.”

"This plague has just begun. I'm afraid thousands of people have already died." Song Zhilu clapped his hands anxiously: "Judging from this, the scale of this plague is much larger than the last one."

"Beiliang and Liaodong are located in the northern border, which just gives us time to react. We should set up checkpoints at the border as soon as possible to keep the plague out as much as possible." Xue Tian said in a deep voice.

"That makes sense, I agree!"

Chenyue didn't talk much and listened to the discussions of several adults. He had not experienced a large-scale plague yet, so he only heard what he heard and had little experience.

Everyone chatted while eating, pointing around the map, and quickly discussed a rough response strategy.

Chenyue said loudly: "Since everyone agrees, Liangdi will mainly do the following things:

First, barracks were set up at the main entrances to Liang. Refugees entering Liang would first stay in the barracks for five days and then be released if they were in good health.

Second: Each county immediately recruits medical officers and reserves medicines to deal with possible plagues.

Third: In the year of plague, people are prone to riots. Governments in various places should reserve food, grass and daily necessities for the people. In order to prevent thieves and bandits from taking advantage of the fire, 10,000 garrison troops from the Liangshan Camp were immediately dispatched to the main road into Liang to maintain order!"

"promise!"
