Qin Zhou's eyes swept over lightly and sneered!
Zian ignored her and took Lin Dan into the West District.
The next day, three people died, all of whom were carried out after Lin Dan entered.
He shed tears as he watched the cremation.
Zian didn't expect his mental endurance to be so poor, "Doctor Lin, are you okay?"
Lin Dan wiped the corners of his eyes, "I'm sorry, I just... thought of my family."
"Your family? Where are they now?" Zian asked.
"Dead. My wife and daughter-in-law both died in the earthquake. My son and grandson were infected with the epidemic and died. I am the only one in the whole family." Lin Dan took a deep breath. Under his gray hair, his frightened and miserable face became more and more vicissitudes of life. .
Zian didn't expect that he was from the disaster area. Seeing the sadness on his face, Zian didn't know how to comfort him, so he just stayed silent with him.
After a long time, Lin Dan asked: "Dr. Xia, can this epidemic be cured?"
Zian suddenly remembered that he was a barefoot doctor, and he might know the golden key after traveling many places, so he quickly asked: "Doctor Lin, do you know what the golden key is?"
"Golden Key?" Lin Dan thought for a moment, "I know, this is another name for money grass."
"Ah?" Zian's eyes almost fell out, "Money grass?"
"Yes, but it's called money grass here, and it's called golden key over there in Daliang. This kind of herb is rare in the Northern Desert because the climate in the Northern Desert is cold, but it's found all over the mountains and plains in Daliang."
Zian didn't expect it to be Desmodium. She remembered that Desmodium has the effects of clearing away heat and diuresis, dispelling wind and relieving pain, stopping bleeding and promoting muscle growth, anti-inflammatory, detoxifying, and killing insects. Furthermore, Desmodium's anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects are very significant. Yes, modern applications of Desmodium are mostly used for stones and urethral inflammation.
She was so stupid, how could she ignore the antibacterial effects of money plant
This is the same as Houttuynia cordata, a natural antibiotic. Moreover, Houttuynia cordata can cooperate with each other and complement each other.
Zian has been trapped in the haze these days and is very anxious. This recipe is right in front of her and she is clearly at her fingertips, but she doesn't know what it is. Now that Lin Dan has guided her through the fog, she just feels a sweet spring pouring in, and she jumps with joy. She hugged Lin Dan and kissed him on the forehead, "Old man, I'm so grateful to you. Thank you so much. You saved many people."
After saying that, he ran back to the east room like flying.
Lin Dan was petrified. He looked back at Zian's back and his lips trembled, "Princess...are you crazy?"
Qin Zhou saw this scene from a distance, and his face became petrified.
She was about to step forward and ask Lin Dan why Xia Zian was so happy when she saw the guard step forward and whisper something in her ear. Qin Zhou's face suddenly changed, "What? Who spread the word?"
"I don't know. The old general asked you to return home immediately." The guard said.
"Let's go!" Qin Zhou raised his robe and left quickly.
A rumor spread in many places in the epidemic area and the Northern Desert.
Rumors say that this epidemic is very dangerous and will spread significantly, even to other countries. If the epidemic cannot be contained, most people in the Northern Desert will die from this plague.
Moreover, rumors also say that the emperor has no intention of continuing to provide disaster relief. He has not delivered supplies and food to the disaster area for two or three days. All the food raised has been transported to the border because there is still a war.
Moreover, the emperor failed to fulfill his promise to Dazhou and did not send the prince to Dazhou as a hostage. This might cause trouble for the emperor of Dazhou and summon the regent princess back to Dazhou.
The Northern Desert has experienced wars, earthquakes, and plagues, and is already physically and mentally exhausted. The only thing that persists is counting on the imperial court to provide disaster relief and counting on the Princess Regent to come up with treatment prescriptions.
However, the food supply for disaster relief has been insufficient, and there is no clothing. Even after the regent princess arrived, not a single prescription was given. The people's patience has gradually worn away, and their anger and resentment have become deeper and deeper.
As soon as this rumor came out, it was like throwing a drop of flame into 10,000 tons of explosives, and it exploded with a "bang".
Countless victims poured into the capital in large numbers.
After Qin Zhou came down from the mountain, he found out what the emperor was doing with the 70,000 soldiers and horses he had left behind, which was to drive away the victims.
She saw with her own eyes that the soldiers under her command had built a thick human wall, and when victims came up, they would wave their spears to drive them away.
More than a dozen victims have been injured by their spears.
These people are her soldiers. Although they are not killing anyone now, once the situation becomes serious, killing is certain.
Qin Zhou was furious and rode on his horse, "Stop it, stop it!"
However, how could she control this situation alone? Even though she came on horseback, she was quickly lost in the crowd. The victims surged forward and the soldiers resisted, but no one heard her voice.
Qin Zhou didn't expect that the situation would get out of control after only a day or two in Muzhai.
She was burning with anxiety. Seeing her soldiers hurt her own people, her heart felt as if it was being roasted by fire.
"General, please go back to the palace first. The old general said that he wants you to come into the palace with him," the guard said.
"Where is the King of Zhen?" Qin Zhou turned around and asked loudly.
"The prince is sick. He has been sick since yesterday." The guard said.
"Let's go back first!" Qin Zhou knew that she could not control the situation and she had to enter the palace immediately.
Only the emperor's decree can quell this commotion.
The soldier guarding the gate saw her coming and took a quick look. Seeing that the human wall had not been broken through by the victims, he quickly opened the city gate. After she rushed in, the gate was closed.
After entering the city, she climbed the mountain and dismounted, and quickly climbed up to the city tower. Looking down, she saw more and more victims coming. These were just nearby victims. As expected, the peak period would be reached in the next two days.
Who is it? Who spread the rumors
She clenched her fists, her face furious.
Suddenly, she saw a man standing on the city wall on the left, wearing a white robe, with his clothes turned up. He was extremely handsome and majestic, with a half-smile but not a smile on his face.
Murong Jie!
She was furious, flew over, drew out a long sword, and pointed it directly at the past, "Is it you?"
Murong Jie reached out and pinched the tip of her sword. With a flick, her sword moved a few inches and pointed at the air.
Murong Jie hummed, "My king? What have I done?"
Qin Zhou said angrily: "It's you who spread the rumors. You deliberately disturbed our Bei Desert so that you could invade in a big way, right?"
"Rumors? Which sentence is a rumor? How serious is the epidemic? Or is your Northern Desert Emperor not caring about the lives of the people by not providing disaster relief? How many of the 100,000 soldiers you brought back went to provide disaster relief?"
"You..." Qin Zhou couldn't argue. She didn't believe the seriousness of the epidemic. She didn't believe it in the first place. However, she had visited the epidemic area and stayed in Muzhai. She knew that even if the epidemic was not as terrible as the rumors outside, it would still be serious. It must be more than the understatement the emperor said.
"Qin Zhou, you violated the covenant, deceived me, and tricked me and my princess into coming to Bei Desert. I will settle this debt with you slowly!" Murong Jie said coldly.
