Chapter 804 - 804: Scared



In order to facilitate the doctors’ observation and treatment, Xuanyuan Ziming asked the soldiers to separate a large area in the east of the city as an isolation area and arranged for all the infected patients to stay there.

It was also divided into several small areas according to the seriousness of the illness.

There was also a checkpoint in front of the epidemic area. He had specially arranged for someone to guard it. Whether it was a doctor or the family of the sick, they had to be strictly disinfected to enter and leave. They had to drink a bowl of epidemic prevention medicine.

As soon as they approached the quarantine area, coughs and wails could be heard.

There should have been a lot of lime water sprinkled around. Even through the gauze soaked in medicinal juice, one could still smell the pungent smell of lime water.

Xuanyuan Ziming came out with a few doctors. When he saw them coming, his eyes lit up. “Madam, Jiajia, you’re here.”

Ji Luo nodded. After hearing his arrangements, he nodded and said, “Not bad.”

“I did everything according to the methods left behind by my predecessors.” Xuanyuan Ziming scratched his head in embarrassment. His eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that he had not slept.

Shen Yijia looked around and didn’t see Song Jingchen. She quickly asked, “Do you know where my husband went?”

When everyone left the city yesterday, it was already the second half of the night. She was extremely sleepy. Ji Luo and MO Yuan joined forces and forcefully threw her into the bathtub to take a medicinal bath before falling asleep. She didn’t see him when she woke up this morning.

Xuanyuan Ziming said, “Brother Song brought people to burn the corpses.”

Fortunately, they were discovered in time. No one had time to mourn their relatives who had died of illness. Otherwise, they would have to get the people outside the city to dig up the graves. At that time, who knew how many people would be infected.

“Look, it’s over there.” Xuanyuan Ziming pointed.

Shen Yijia looked in the direction he was pointing. Half a city away, she immediately saw thick smoke rising.

“Don’t worry, he’ll be back soon,” Xuanyuan Ziming said.

Shen Yijia nodded.

“Madam Ji.” The imperial physician was walking out and calling out anxiously, “Come in and take a look. A patient is about to die.”

“Jiajia, wait for Mother outside.” Ji Luo hurriedly reminded her and quickly entered the quarantine area with MO Yuan.

In less than ten minutes, a desperate roar came from inside.

“Mother, wake up. Hurry up and save my mother. Aren’t you doctors? Hurry up and save her!”

“Please save my mother. Save her!”

Shen Yijia’s fingertips trembled.

Xuanyuan Ziming’s face turned pale. This plague was fierce and acted quickly. The patients who could still move yesterday were already lying down on their last breaths today.

Seeing the lives disappear in front of him, Xuanyuan Ziming felt powerless.

He waved his hand, and the two soldiers immediately rushed in. Soon, they carried out a corpse covered in a white cloth.

A ten-year-old youth chased after him, but he was held down by the soldiers.

“Where are you taking my mother? My mother isn’t dead yet. Let go of her quickly!”

The young man was pressed to the ground and could not move. He could only stare at the person being carried out of the quarantine area with red eyes.

A gust of wind blew past, blowing up a corner of the white cloth. A hand with pus and rot was unexpectedly exposed to Shen Yijia.

Her pupils constricted. She tried her best to suppress the nausea in her heart so that she wouldn’t vomit.

No matter how terrifying and tragic the plague she saw in the book was, it was only words. It was far less impactful than this sight.

“Don’t look.” A gentle voice sounded behind her. At the same time, a wide hand covered her eyes, cutting off her vision from the outside world.

“Hubby.” Shen Yijia’s voice trembled. This was the first time she felt afraid and wanted to retreat.

She was afraid that her mother, her husband, the scumbag, Xuanyuan Ziming, and everyone she knew would contract this terrifying illness.

She wanted to knock them out and throw them out of Phoenix City.

Sensing that her body was trembling slightly, Song Jingchen blamed himself. However, because he had just moved the corpse and hadn’t had time to change his clothes, he didn’t dare to pull her into his arms. He could only comfort her as softly as possible. “It’s fine, it’s fine. It’ll be over soon.”

His voice seemed to have some kind of magic that drilled into her ears. Shen Yijia’s heart gradually calmed down.

“Actually, there’s no need for you to stay in the city.” Xuanyuan Ziming pursed his lips and suggested, “Why don’t I get someone to send you out?”

Song Jingchen wasn’t from the Xuanyuan Kingdom. Although Shen Yijia had the blood of the Xuanyuan family flowing in her veins, she had never enjoyed the benefits of her status as a member of the Xuanyuan family. Instead, she had been secretly harmed because of this.

They had no need or obligation to stay and do this.

“Now that the city gate has been sealed, how are you going to send us out?” Shen Yijia’s emotions came and went quickly, and she instantly perked up.

Although Song Jingchen didn’t say it, she wasn’t stupid. During Emperor Chong’an’s years in power, anyone with any prestige was treated as a threat by him. They were killed or exiled. Great Xia had long been riddled with holes in his hands.

Shangguan Han had just ascended the throne and his foundation was still unstable. How could they fight the Wu Kingdom?

Even if they could barely resist it, it would take many years for them to rebuild their foundations. The citizens of Great Xia would be displaced and their families would be separated.

If not for that, Song Jingchen wouldn’t have wanted the help of the Xuanyuan Kingdom.

Therefore, they couldn’t leave. To put it bluntly, they wanted Xuanyuan Qi to owe them a favor.

As for her identity as Xuanyuan Ce’s daughter, Shen Yijia did not think that Xuanyuan Qi would risk the lives of thousands of soldiers of the Xuanyuan Kingdom because of this.

After all, war was as cruel as the plague.

It could be seen from the history books that there were so many emperors who sent their daughters out for marriage to prevent war.

As the ruler of a country, Xuanyuan Qi had to be responsible for his people.

Song Jingchen understood this, so he had never thought of getting anything from her status.

Xuanyuan Ziming thought that she had agreed to leave and said seriously, “I can get someone to lower you down from the city tower with a sling.”

The sling was their only way to communicate with the outside world now.

They tied the basket with ropes and put it down. The people outside would put the supplies and medicinal herbs they needed inside.

“You want us to sit in the vegetable basket?” Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “We’re not leaving. I believe mv mother can definitelv find a cure.”

Xuanyuan Ziming was speechless.

Song Jingchen saw the change in her expression and his heart ached. He opened his mouth to say something.

Shen Yijia waved her fist. “Don’t ask me to wait for you outside. Otherwise, I’ll be angry.”

Song Jingchen was stunned and said helplessly, “Alright.”

Shen Yijia leaned over and whispered, “Fifteen days. If we can’t find a solution in fifteen days, we’ll leave.”

“Alright.’

Satisfied, Shen Yijia raised her voice and instructed, “Thirty Thousand, quickly bring your master home to wash up and rest.”

“Where are you going?” Song Jingchen frowned.

Shen Yijia smiled. “I’m going to look for the most respected princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom. Since she’s staying, I have to do something. I can’t let her gain a good reputation for no reason.”

Alright, she was just that bad. She had been frightened just now, so she wanted to scare Xuanyuan Ye too.

Xuanyuan Ziming silently lit an incense stick for Xuanyuan Ye..
