Chapter 276
Daya looked at Shangguan Ziling with tears in her eyes, her eyes full of expectation and anxiety. "Sister, is it true?" Her voice was trembling and weak, as if it would disappear at any time.
Shangguan Ziling nodded, smiled gently and said, "Well, so Daya don't cry."
Daya wiped her tears, and a resolute expression appeared on her face. "Don't cry, Daya, let your mother go in peace." Although her voice was still trembling, it was no longer as fragile as before.
Shangguan Ziling felt a pang of pain in her heart when she heard that. This girl looked like she was only eight or nine years old, but she was so young. She gently hugged Daya, giving her some comfort and support.
Shangguan Ziling looked around. The environment here was so bad that it had to be cleaned and disinfected as soon as possible.
Shangguan Ziling let go of Daya and stood up. She looked at Qiu Kui and ordered, "Qiu Kui, immediately arrange for someone to clean up this place with some strong liquor. The body must also be cremated as soon as possible to avoid infecting more people."
After Shangguan Ziling finished speaking, she blocked Daya's sight, took out a large jar of spiritual spring water from the space, and said: "Let everyone who comes in have a sip."
"Yes." Qiu Kui went away holding a large jar of spiritual spring water.
The little fat boy said in the space: "Master, please give the spiritual spring water to the victims infected with the plague to see if the spiritual spring water can cure the plague."
Shangguan Ziling responded: "Little Fatty, I think so too. During this period, the environment here is too bad. It is easy for more victims to be infected. We need some strong liquor to disinfect it."
……
At the same time, under the gloomy sky, the riverside was full of mud after the flood receded. Mo Shaoxie stepped on the mud, not caring at all about getting his boots dirty.
His figure seemed particularly lonely in the dim light. His eyes were fixed on the bodies floating on the river. Those once vibrant lives were now only cold and stiff bodies.
The officers and soldiers were busy rowing boats back and forth in the river, their faces filled with fatigue and grief. Every time a body was salvaged, the expressions of those present were very serious.
The floodwaters had receded considerably, but what was left behind was a scene of death and destruction.
At this moment, a yamen runner hurried over, with a look of embarrassment and panic on his face. He knelt in front of Mo Shaoxie, clasped his hands together, and said in a trembling voice: "Prince Regent, the area where the victims are seriously ill, the imperial doctor found that the victims have the plague, and the princess ignored the obstruction and entered the area where the victims are seriously ill."
Mo Shaoxie's face instantly turned ugly, and a trace of panic and worry flashed in his eyes. He clenched his fists, and his knuckles turned white due to the force.
He knew how terrible the power of the plague was. Once it got out of control, the consequences would be disastrous. How could Ling'er break in even though she knew there was a plague?
Mo Feng stood aside. He could feel the anger and worry in his master's heart.
Mo Feng looked up, but found that Mo Shaoxie had disappeared. He was startled and immediately chased after him, knowing that his master must have gone to look for the princess.
On the dim street, Mo Shaoxie walked quickly, his figure looming in the night. His heart was filled with anxiety and worry, he didn't know how Ling'er was doing now, whether she had been infected by the plague.
Guo Fusi was wandering around anxiously, his brows furrowed, his heart filled with worry and uneasiness.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence. Guo Fusi looked up and saw Mo Shaoxie appearing in the distance. He hurriedly went up to him and said anxiously, "Prince Regent, the princess is inside."
Mo Shaoxie did not pause for a moment, his eyes were firm and cold. He stepped forward, and Guo Fusi said anxiously: "No, Regent, the imperial physician found that the seriously ill victims inside had the plague."
However, Mo Shaoxie seemed not to have heard his words, and he continued to move forward. The icy voice sounded again, "Get out of the way."
Guo Fusi's body trembled involuntarily. He knew that this was Mo Shaoxie's order and it could not be questioned.
Qiu Kui also walked to the entrance at this time. She saw Mo Shaoxie coming and said, "My lord, the princess asked someone to bring some strong liquor."
Mo Shaoxie stopped and looked at Guo Fujita beside him, "Send someone to bring some strong liquor immediately." His voice was low and powerful, revealing an unquestionable majesty.
"Yes." Guo Fusi responded, turned around and hurriedly arranged for the yamen runners to do it.
Half an hour later, a group of yamen runners came hurriedly carrying strong liquor.
Mo Shaoxie's figure appeared exceptionally tall. He stood at the entrance of the disaster area, his eyes firm and deep.
Mo Feng asked Mo Feng, who had arrived later, to pick ten yamen runners and carry the liquor in.
Qiu Kui was holding a large jar of spiritual spring water on the opposite side, and her face was full of worry and uneasiness. She said softly, "My Lord, the princess said that everyone who enters must drink a bowl of this water."
Mo Shaoxie nodded slightly. He knew that the "water" Qiu Kui was talking about was the spiritual spring water that Shangguan Ziling had taken from the space. He turned to Mo Feng and said, "Bring me a bowl."
Mo Feng responded, turned around and took the bowls, filling them up with spiritual spring water one by one. He handed a bowl to Mo Shaoxie, and then to the other yamen runners and Qiu Kui.
Mo Shaoxie picked up the bowl and drank the spiritual spring water in it. His eyes revealed a kind of determination and confidence, as if he was ready to face everything.
Later, they walked into the disaster area together. It was already dark, and they saw heartbreaking scenes.
Those once vibrant lives are now reduced to cold and stiff bodies. Their faces are filled with pain and helplessness, which makes people feel heartbroken.
Mo Shaoxie's eyes became more determined and cold.
After a while, they came to a shabby tent. Mo Shaoxie strode in and saw Shangguan Ziling busy treating patients. Her face was full of fatigue and sweat, but her eyes were still firm and bright.
Seeing Mo Shaoxie coming in, Shangguan Ziling smiled slightly and said, "Mo Shaoxie, why are you here?"
Mo Shaoxie walked up to her, held her hand tightly, and said, "Ling'er, it's so dangerous, why are you here? Why don't you take a rest?"
Shangguan Ziling shook her head and said, "It's okay."
