Those people seemed to be inspired, and they all began to agree to let them remove these corpses, which might reduce some trivial matters later.

Qingyan watched as the people threw some thatch into the pit in order to burn the corpses in the pit as quickly as possible.

The last person lit a torch and threw it into the pit, and then the pit burst into flames.

"Fourth brother is more proud." Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen and said with a smile on her face, "If fourth brother ascends the throne and becomes emperor, it will definitely be a blessing for the people."

Xuanyuan Yuzhen shrugged helplessly, "I think I probably followed the temperament of my mother and concubine. I am not keen on the throne and just want to live casually. But I am the prince after all, so I can only help my eldest brother to stabilize the world as much as possible."

"The mother-in-law's temperament is indeed like this." Qingyan looked at Xuanyuan Yuzhen's side face and said with a smile.

At that time, if it was not for the sake of the people of Donghe Kingdom and Nanchen Kingdom not to endure the suffering of the war, Qilian Yuran would not have wanted to marry into Donghe Kingdom, even if she loved Hongjia so deeply. emperor.

She still remembers Qilian Yuran's expression when he saw Emperor Hongjia for the first time. It was the look of a young girl's first love. Unfortunately, she didn't know at that time that Xuanyuan Hong was Emperor Hongjia of Toga Kingdom.

Qilian Yuran was happy at that time, but now Qilian Yuran is also happy.

"Yan'er, how about we go and see how those people are doing?" Murong Jingxuan looked at Qing Yan and said seriously, "Some of them are in mild condition, let's see if there is any chance to save them."

Qingyan looked at Murong Jingxuan and nodded seriously, "I am the only one here who is good at medical skills. You'd better not go there, lest you get infected. By then none of us will be able to go back."

Murong Jingxuan and Xuanyuan Yuzhen were willing to let Qingyan go alone. Qingyan looked at the expressions on their faces and had no choice but to follow them.

Qingyan and the others passed by groups of people, but those people looked lifeless. Even if Hua Tuo was alive, he probably wouldn't be able to save them.

At this moment, a woman appeared in front of her holding a little girl, and immediately knelt down, "Please save my daughter, please save my daughter."

Qingyan looked at the look of the little girl in the woman's hands, and suddenly remembered that Xuanyuan Yuya once held her sick son in the rain and sought medical treatment in the rain. But in the end, the doctors told her that the baby could no longer survive. Later, Xuanyuan Yuya found him. Even though she was good at medicine, she couldn't snatch the child away from the hands of death.

"My husband-in-law, father-in-law, mother-in-law, father and mother all died in this plague. This child is my only hope. I hope you can save her. Please." The woman begged while holding the little girl. Kowtow to them repeatedly.

Qingyan looked at the woman's appearance and immediately helped her up, "Although I can't guarantee whether she can be saved, let me check the situation first."

After hearing Qingyan's words, the woman quickly kowtowed and thanked her. Then she took Qingyan and the others to a thatched house with the little girl in her arms. Qingyan asked the woman to put the little girl on the bed board.

When Qingyan walked to the bedside, she looked at the little girl's red cheeks and breathed a sigh of relief. This should be an early symptom of the plague. If the rescue was timely, the little girl should still be saved.

"Female Bodhisattva, my child can still be saved." The woman looked at Qingyan and knelt down.

Qingyan looked at the expression on the woman's face and immediately helped her up, "There is still hope. The girl must have just been infected with the plague. This child only has a mild fever. Now listen to me and prepare a basin of cold water." , and then those clean towels come.”

After hearing Qingyan's hope, the woman immediately went to prepare what Qingyan needed.

She walked up to Murong Jingxuan and looked at Fengqing and the others and said seriously, "Bring some heat-clearing and fire-removing medicine from the pharmacy in your city."

Fengqing listened to Qingyan's words, nodded seriously, and then turned around and disappeared.

"This child should be saved." Qingyan looked at the expression on Xuanyuan Yuzhen's face and said with a smile, "Fourth brother, this is something that you and I can't control. You don't have to blame yourself so much."

Xuanyuan Yuzhen listened to Qingyan's words, smiled and said, "Yan'er, I'm actually quite sad to see this scene."

The woman quickly brought over the things that needed to be prepared. Qingyan could only put the towels into the basin as she looked at the towels that had become blackened with use.

The village should use well water, so the water can be so warm in such a season. She walked to the bedside with a twisted towel and put the towel on the little girl's head.

"Just wait a minute and follow the method I just told you. I've already sent someone to get the medicinal ingredients. I'll boil the medicine for you when I get back. All you have to do now is stay by her bedside." Qingyan looked at her. The woman comforted her and said, "You have to remember to change the towel every once in a while, and the water in the basin is the same. If you feel that her forehead is no longer hot, you don't need to apply the towel anymore."

The woman listened to Qingyan's words very seriously. Finally, she looked at Qingyan and nodded seriously, "I will definitely do it, don't worry."

Qingyan looked at the woman and asked some more about the situation. They learned from the woman's mouth that not only had they not eaten for many days, but even if food was delivered, the officials blocking the outside would not give it to them, so Not only did they die of illness, but they also starved to death.

Qingyan looked at Fengqing who had returned from getting the medicinal materials. His identity followed Chonglou who had arrived in Wucheng. Chonglou seemed to be accompanied by a girl named Forsythia who was about the same age as Qingyan.

"Forsythia, you take Fengqing to make the medicine together. Just leave the matters here to me and the Crown Princess." Chonglou looked at the girl and said seriously.

"Yes." Forsythia said and took Fengqing and others down to boil the medicine.

"Master, this Forsythia insists on coming with me, so I can only bring it with me. She also said that she misses the master very much." Chonglou walked to Murong Jingxuan and said helplessly.

"It doesn't matter, we'll talk about this later. You and Xiao Yan'er go to see the situation of other villagers."

Qingyan followed Chonglou to see the situation of the villagers. It was the first time for them to encounter such a serious plague, especially a man-made plague.

"Chonglou, you may know what caused the plague?" Qingyan frowned helplessly as she looked at the groaning state of those people, "Although I am good at medicine, I am still better at poisoning and detoxification. For these Although we understand the plague, we don’t know how to deal with it.”
