Three days later, the people who had been waiting to die in Luomei City had seen hope. They no longer had repeated fevers. They were stronger than before and were able to help clean up the ruins after the earthquake. Some shops on the street had reopened.
Luomei City ushered in sunny days again.
Ye Zhen didn't need to go to the doctor anymore, she asked every household to take the medicine back, and drink it for a few days.
The two carts of medicinal materials Zhao Tianji sent were almost used up, and Lu Tingzhi finally came to Luomei City with the medicinal materials and prescriptions.
Although with Ye Zhen's medicine, Shui Yichen's illness has been brought under control, but he has not completely recovered, and the recovery speed is relatively slow. Doctor Feng was puzzled. Two carts of medicinal materials came.
Because his surname was Lu, Shui Yichen personally met him.
After being ill for a few days, Shui Yichen looked weak and pale, sitting in the grand teacher's chair in a brocade robe, looking coldly at Lu Tingzhi standing in front.
"Who asked you to come?" Shui Yichen asked in a cold voice, he knew Lu Tingzhi, this person was Lu Yaoyao's cousin, who used to be in the Imperial Academy of Qi State.
"No one asked me to come. To accumulate blessings, I sent medicines and prescriptions to various disaster-stricken places." Lu Tingzhi said quietly.
"Where did you get the prescription?" Shui Yichen asked in a cold voice, he is not a doctor, so how could he have the prescription.
"I got it from Anping Town, where the epidemic has already been brought under control." Lu Tingzhi said.
Shui Yichen looked at Lu Tingzhi sharply, "Have you been injured?"
"Saving people in a flood, I accidentally got hurt." Lu Tingzhi looked calmly at Shui Yichen, "The emperor is worried because I come from the state of Jin, and I was in the Hanlin Academy of the State of Qi for two months. Before, when Marquis An Ning of Qi State passed away, I had already left Qi State and wandered all the time, passing by Anping Town, if Your Majesty doesn’t believe me, I can leave immediately.”
"Did you know that Lu Yaoyao is in Luomei City?" Shui Yichen asked in a deep voice.
Lu Tingzhi's whole body froze, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, "Luomeicheng? Isn't it already..."
"There was no massacre of the city because she was inside." Shui Yichen said coldly.
"I thought she had returned to the capital..." Lu Tingzhi said in a daze, "So she came to Luomei City."
Shui Yichen looked at Lu Tingzhi's face and saw that he did not seem to be lying, "Do you want me to send you to the city to find her?"
Lu Tingzhi smiled wryly and shook his head, "I'm afraid she doesn't want to see me. Since Yaoyao is here, the epidemic in Luomei City should be cured, so I'll go to another place and take my leave."
"Stop." Shui Yichen stopped Lu Tingzhi, "Are you sending medicine all the way to the Yuan Kingdom just to accumulate blessings?"
"My family... have done a lot of wrong things, and I am apologizing for them." Lu Tingzhi said in a low voice.
Shui Yichen looked at him mockingly, "Is that all? If you don't go to so many places, why do you come to Yuan Kingdom?"
"Your majesty is so bright-eyed. If I had a choice, I would rather stay in the country of Jin. However, the imperial envoys of the country of Jin are my cousins. I have no face to face them. Even if I go to the country of Jin, I'm afraid that I will be mediocre for the rest of my life. Qi Guo...because of Cheng Zheng's death, he won't reuse me, so I can only choose Yuan Guo." Lu Tingzhi said frankly.
"Why do you think Yuan Guo can accommodate you?" Shui Yichen asked lightly.
Lu Tingzhi smiled, "I heard that the emperor is very thirsty for talents and treats the capable people well. I'm just here to try."
"Are you sure I'll keep you?" Shui Yichen sneered, he really wanted to win over capable people in the world, he had just ascended the throne, and he didn't have many confidantes he could use.
However, this Lu Tingzhi, he was 30% skeptical.
"Not sure, I'm just here to try my luck." Lu Tingzhi said.
Shui Yichen looked at Lei Yingchun beside him, "Let Feng Chunsong come in and have a look at this prescription."
"Yes." Lei Yingchun glanced at Lu Ting. He had heard of this young man's name. He was considered talented in Qi State. He heard that Zhao Yong valued him very much before, but his status was really embarrassing in Qi State. Although he is Lu Yaoyao's cousin, because of Lu Lingzhi's relationship, I'm afraid Lu Yaoyao doesn't have much old affection for him.
Dr. Feng came in quickly, and he saluted Shui Yichen.
"Look at this prescription, is it for treating the epidemic?" Shui Yichen gave the prescription to Dr. Feng.
"This is..." Dr. Feng looked at the prescription in his hand in surprise. This prescription is actually the same as Tianfei's prescription, but there are some differences in dosage. "Your Majesty, this prescription is indeed for treating epidemic diseases."
Shui Yichen glanced at Lu Tingzhi, "If you can cure my illness with this prescription, I will let you follow me back to the capital city."
"Then we can only resign ourselves to fate." Lu Tingzhi said in a low voice.
Feng Chunsong looked back at Lu Tingzhi, bowed his head and remained silent.
"Go to decoction." Shui Yichen ordered quietly.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Feng Chunsong took the prescription and retreated with his head bowed.
Lu Tingzhi looked at Shui Yichen calmly, "Your Majesty, do you want to keep me here?"
"Place it here for the time being. Didn't you say to resign yourself to fate? Then let God decide whether I should take you back to the capital city or not." Shui Yichen said flatly.
"Yes." Lu Tingzhi was as good as he was, and he was really resigned to his fate indifferently.
Lei Yingchun ordered Lu Tingzhi to be taken down to rest.
"Your Majesty, this Lu Tingzhi..." Lei Yingchun pondered his thoughts impenetrably. Lu Tingzhi is Tianfei's cousin, no matter what grievances there are between them, this relationship will never change.
"He will appear here, still holding her prescription, it can't be by chance." Shui Yichen said softly, stood up and walked towards the bed, but his feet softened.
Lei Yingchun quickly supported him, "Your Majesty, take care."
"She didn't let me die because she wanted to torture me." Shui Yichen's tone was mixed with resentment that he didn't even notice. He would rather she didn't even send Feng Chunsong here, and let him die of illness directly, and she refused to come , She just didn't want to save him, she was punishing him.
"Tianfei, she...wouldn't think so, she is a soft-hearted person." Lei Yingchun said in a low voice.
Shui Yichen smiled sadly, she would soften her heart to everyone, but she would not soften her heart to him.
"Let people keep an eye on Lu Tingzhi." Shui Yichen said coldly.
"Yes." Lei Yingchun replied.
"What's the current situation in Luomei City?" Shui Yichen asked.
Lei Yingchun said, "I heard that the epidemic has been brought under control, and many people have been able to clean up the rubble by themselves."
"Send someone in to help, so there's no need to close Luomei City anymore." Shui Yichen said in a low voice, "Luomei City will be exempted from taxes for three years."
"Yes, Your Majesty is wise." This was the ending that Lei Yingchun guessed.
Shui Yichen didn't mention Ye Zhen, he lay down on the bed, closed his eyes and didn't speak anymore.
Lei Yingchun was silent for a while, then quietly retreated.
