Chapter 1486 Capital Plague
Qi Qi poked out half of her head from the other side of the red beans, smiled slightly at Croton from the air, then grabbed the fish in her small bucket and put them all in the bucket one by one.
"Oh Qiqi! You are the best little brother in the whole world! Boss, I told you that I would take you to eat and drink, and I will never break my promise!" Croton laughed until his eyebrows disappeared.
"Brother, you are only a little over five years old, and you will have to wait ten years before you grow up." Hongdou held the fishing rod in both hands, solemnly, "Ten years is a long time. Doesn't Qiqi have to honor you for ten years to be able to do it?" How about some delicious food and spicy food? Then it’s better to sell fish to save money, which will be enough to eat many spicy meals after ten years of saving.”
Croton said with a wooden face, "Hongdou, you were so cute when you were young, and you were so good when you followed your brother. Why did you talk back to your brother when you grew up?"
"I didn't talk back, I was speaking the truth." Hongdou pouted even higher, "Mother told me to convince people with reasoning."
My croton is the reason! Croton was stunned to say this, and nodded his head, "Yes, yes, we can convince people, mother said, if you can beep beep, don't do it, I understand, I understand. I just told daddy It is a truth to subdue the enemy without fighting, I understand, I understand."
He understands, he understands. When he grows up and goes out to roam the rivers and lakes by himself, whoever wants to reason with him like Hongdou, he will slap his fist and teach the other party not to beep for half a month.
As for a man, he shouldn't talk too much.
Like Uncle Hei Lian, who would dare to talk to him once he stood outside?
This is the real man.
All in all, all in all, he definitely can't live like Uncle Jin Zi, walking around the world with only one mouth.
On the river bank, there were two other people sitting on the clean stone ladder, smiling and listening to the laughter of the children below.
Although it has started to be hot in June, it is very comfortable to sit by the river bank in the evening.
At this time, the sun had already set, and the wind blowing from the river was cool, and the smell of the clear river water was blowing on the face, which made people feel comfortable physically and mentally.
"Tell me, is it time for the second brother and Qian Wanjin's child to be full moon?"
"It should be full moon."
"When we go back, the two children will probably be one or two years old."
"As soon as we meet, I can hear them calling aunt, so I should be happy."
The man's consolation is barely a pass.
It has been half a month since they came to this small fishing town. The town is not big, and they can go shopping in half a day.
The river at the east corner of the town is the family's favorite place to come after sunset.
"Do you feel bored after staying for so long?" Feng Qingbai asked the woman beside him with sideways eyes.
"No, it's very good here." Liu Yusheng smiled, "We will leave when the matter here is resolved, and we may not be able to come to this place again in the future."
"Well, in half a month at most, there will be chaos in the capital."
Speaking of the capital city, Liu Yusheng frowned, "The plague suddenly broke out over there. Although it was a small area, it was enough to cause panic. Has Duan Ting not found out the cause of the plague yet?"
"Not yet." Feng Qingbai shook his head.
Originally, they passed through this small town and stayed for two or three days before preparing to leave. They just received a letter from Prince Ting's Mansion, which said that a plague suddenly broke out in the capital. The reason is unknown. Hundreds of people have already suffered.
The only good thing is that no one died.
It's just that the people gathered in the capital city are all the dignitaries of Beicang, and if a plague occurs around them, they may also be infected at any time, which is absolutely intolerable for this group of dignitaries.
In order to save their lives, the rich and powerful are bound to take action.
And what they will choose to do...
Liu Yusheng frowned, "What will happen to those common people?"
"die."
That one word made Liu Yusheng's heart shrink severely. Although he knew how cruel the people in that circle were, Liu Yusheng still couldn't accept it when Feng Qingbai said that word lightly.
She is not a benevolent woman, but the disposition raised by her grandparents since she was a child will not become cold and ruthless because of seeing too much.
"Beicang has a population of tens of thousands, and the number of infected people is only a hundred. If we ignore it and allow the disease to spread, then not only a hundred people will be affected, but a thousand or one may be affected." 10,000, plus it is still the place where the rich and powerful of the dynasty live, they can't just ignore it."
Those people can't do nothing.
Compared with the lives of the common people, they care more about their own lives.
In their eyes, hundreds of ordinary people are nothing but ants.
Liu Yusheng sighed, raised her eyes to look at the setting sun that had already set in the sky, in this gorgeous setting sun scene, there was a bit of desolation for no reason.
This time and space is neither democratic nor free. If the interests of the people and the authorities conflict, only the people will suffer in the end.
Under imperial power, there are no human rights.
With a touch of warmth on the back of his hand, Liu Yusheng turned his eyes sideways and met the gentle eyes of the man, "Shengsheng, our home is in Nanling, in Xinghua Village. I will definitely protect it there."
"Hmm." Liu Yusheng smiled as he spread the corners of his lips.
She has always believed in him and believed that he would do what he said.
The sighs and sadness that came out before were just for the people on this land, but, after all, she could not intervene in those things.
"Feng Qingbai, if you can save someone, do your best."
"good."
Feng Qingbai responded, turned his head and looked at the sky with the woman.
They won't stay here for too long, and soon an order will fly from the capital, inviting them to return to the capital.
Due to the outbreak of the plague, the entire city of Beicang has been closed, and those infected with the disease have also been isolated. It's just that many doctors have failed to find out the source of the disease, and there is no cure. While they are still in Beicang, Beicang will not let go of this opportunity to drag them into the water.
Because Sheng Sheng is a miracle doctor who is well-known in Nanling and even in other countries.
Once they are gone, people can be cured, which is the work of Bei Cang.
If people can't cure them well, then they have to die along with the people.
The matter involved the plague, and Bei Canghuang could kill them silently as long as he could find any reason why they were infected. The world will only think that they died of the plague.
At night, when they returned to the inn where they lived temporarily, Liu Yusheng took the red beans to wash up.
At the age of seven, seven, four or five, Croton had already started to dislike letting his mother take a bath, so this matter was naturally handed over to Feng Qingbai.
After soaking in the tub to clean himself up, Croton giggled, put on his clothes and left the bathroom, leaving behind Qiqi who moved a little slower.
Taking a clean cloth towel to dry the baby's wet hair, Feng Qingbai opened his lips, "There is a plague in the capital, the reason is unknown, is it you?"
