MTL - Accidentally Married Miss Empress-Chapter 12

"Where did you learn these strange words?" Dai Ruyan said helplessly.

Gong Yu looked away, moved away from Dai Ruyan's arms, and half sat beside Dai Ruyan and replied, "Isn't this what is often said in drama texts?"

Dai Ruyan, who was beside him, stretched out his hand and took care of Li Gongyu's scattered clothes, and said softly, "I can't protect you when I leave the capital."

For some reason, since knowing that Dai Ruyan mentioned her sister, Gong Yu always felt that Dai Ruyan was hiding many secrets.

But no one could find out, and even outsiders never knew that Dai Ruyan had a younger sister. Why did the Dai family hide it from the outside world?

Gong Yu didn't understand, but she also knew that if you asked Dai Ruyan, you would probably not get an answer, so she looked at Dai Ruyan and replied, "Don't be afraid, I have a lot of guards accompanying me this time."

Suddenly the sound of birds chirping was heard in the pavilion, Dai Ruyan did not answer the words, and cleaned up the chessboard by herself.

This is probably the silent acquiescence of Dai Ruyan.

Three days later, the group came out of the capital, and Gong Yu, who had never left the capital before, rode a little red horse out of the city excitedly.

The anxious mood was exhausted by the day-to-day rush, and after walking on the official road of the capital for nearly half a month, Gong Yu felt that his bones were about to fall apart.

However, the grand master was still full of seriousness, and his brows never wrinkled. As a junior, Gong Yu could say anything.

Fortunately, after changing horses at the water, and going south by boat, Gong Yu felt a little more comfortable.

It's just that what has never been seen from the south is like a vast ocean, densely covered by floods, submerging villages and towns.

At this time, it was already the beginning of winter, and Gong Yu, who was standing on the deck, only felt cold and painful, but the victims were displaced, dressed in thin and worn clothes.

Taifu scolded the local officials for not reporting the information, but the local officials said that the matter was reported to the court, and the prime minister on behalf of the prime minister found out the reason.

There was a smell of rotting in the air.

"Nonsense!" Tai Fu frowned furiously and said to a group of local officials with their heads bowed: "Is this palace country surnamed Dai or Gong?"

"These matters concerning the life and death of the people of Limin should be reported directly to His Majesty to find out the cause of the flood."

"Back to Taifu, a few months of torrential rain washed away the newly built dam, causing tens of thousands of farmland tiles to be destroyed. The torrential rain has not stopped until now." It was a young official who said this.

Gong Yu looked at the official, and saw the Taifu say in a low voice, "This dam was only completed with funds from the state treasury. How can it be washed away so easily?"

Suddenly there was silence all around, the sound of thunder outside was deafening, and the sound of rain broke the silence.

"Report!"

A guard outside the door said in a panic, "Sir... the water can't be blocked."

Gong Yu listened carefully, and just realized that the thunder was mixed with messy sounds.

The officials were messing around one after another, but the Taifu said calmly: "What are you doing, retreat first, find a safe place elsewhere, rescue the victims, and find out what happened."

But the flood rushed too fast, and the original highland saw that there was no one left, and there were many sorrows. Gong Yu was escorted by an escort, and only got on the boat in an emergency.

"Help!"

"My son!"

"Who will save us!"

The screams were endless, but most of the victims were caught in the flood. Gong Yu hurriedly shouted: "Save people! Quick!"

"Ninth Highness, our ship can't stand it either."

The timid official only ordered people to row a boat to leave this area of ​​violent flooding. The scarlet flood water created a stench after another, and the discomfort caused by the abdomen caused many officials on the ship to cover their mouths.

The thunder and rain continued, and the boat fluttered in the middle of the night before meeting the pick-up team, and Gong Yu was already soaked.

The next day was clear, Gong Yu was holding **** tea, standing in the tower and looking at the flood like the sea in front of him.

As if the call for help from the victims was still in his ears, Gong Yu took a small sip and asked, "Master, hasn't the imperial court sent someone to provide relief?"

"The carrier pigeon still takes three days, and the fastest round trip takes six days." Although his face was tired, his eyes were bright.

Yes, it will take six days at the earliest, and the Prime Minister of that generation is still concealing the facts, and maybe he will block more.

However, the nearby small towns have run out of food, but there are more and more victims. What worries Gong Yu most is that there will be large-scale epidemics after the flood.

Gong Yu frowned tightly and said, "Master, can the victims be properly resettled immediately, especially if they experience vomiting and discomfort and are unconscious, they must ask a doctor for diagnosis and treatment."

"Why is your ninth highness?"

"Tai Fu's old saying doesn't often say that natural disasters often accompany plagues, so it's better for us to take precautions as soon as possible."

Otherwise, once the epidemic spreads, it will be a flood.

Tai Fu thought for a moment and said, "It's hard for His Highness Ninth to be so young, yet consider it so thoughtfully."

"Come here, immediately follow the instructions of His Royal Highness Ninth Highness to properly arrange the victims. If you feel unwell, please isolate them immediately and ask a doctor for diagnosis and treatment."

"Yes!"

The sky was twilight, Gong Yu drank a small bowl of gruel and wanted to go out to investigate the situation. The victims were lying in the streets and alleys, under the city tower, and could be seen everywhere.

The rotten smell that pervaded the air did not subside. Because there were too many victims, they could not be dispersed for a while, and the flood had not yet subsided, and a large number of soldiers were still carrying sand.

Gong Yu sent someone to ask the doctor to arrange herbal decoctions for the victims and distribute them to prevent the outbreak of the epidemic.

The flood did not recede, and the officers and soldiers were unable to move forward. The next day Gongyu determined that he was trapped in this small town.

Outside the flood and silt piled up to the height of a person, and people in the city were panicked. Even the local officials looked at the rapid flood and turned their mouths in panic and said, "It's incredible, we're afraid we're going to die here."

The Taifu on the side picked up the crutches in his hand and hit the noisy local official fiercely, saying, "You should kill for disturbing the military's heart!"

"You... dare to touch me?" The local official cursed in so much pain: "You are immortal, I am a member of the Dai family, you dare to touch me, be careful that the Prime Minister will not spare you."

"Delusional, you are the dog of the Dai family, and if you die, you are just a dead dog." Taifu got up and shouted, "Someone tied him up for me and hung it on the wall."

Gong Yu didn't understand the meaning of Taifu, but he saw the victims under the city wall besieged and looked around.

"Everyone who has suffered the scourge of the flood today is greedy for life and fear of death, and refuses to report to the imperial court as the lackey of the Dai clan."

"kill him!"

The screams kept on screaming, as if the victims who were as thin as dry wood seemed to be killing people.

This change was so fast that Gong Yu didn't even have time to react, only to see that the local official was strangled to death on the city wall, and his hands fell from struggling to weakness.

The cheers rang in his ears like thunder, and Gong Yu obviously heard the other officials on the side heaving a sigh of relief.

This is to appease, but also to suppress. Taifu is trying his best to appease the countless disaster victims in the city.

Although Gong Yu comforted herself like this, she couldn't help but vomit at night. The heavy rain fell on the roof tiles with a loud noise.

Another two days have passed, and this is the fifth day. Before Gong Yu had time to drink tea, a guard came to report urgently: "There is a plague."

"Isn't it obvious that some measures were taken?" Gong Yu looked at the guard in surprise.

The Taifu on the side said in a low voice: "Someone is hiding the plaguer, come and check it for me!"

Immediately, the city became more panicky. Gong Yu was holding an umbrella and felt a little dizzy in her head. She guessed that she probably hadn't slept peacefully in the past few days. When she checked the condition of the victims in the streets and houses, most of the doctors accompanying her shook their heads.

Gong Yu approached the corner of the little girl with pustules on her hands and feet, which was so hot that she was obviously unconscious.

Suddenly, in the corner of the wall, there was an old man with disheveled hair, and he was muttering something. He didn't look like a refugee, but he didn't look like it.

"What are you doing looking at me, little girl?" the old man turned his head and said.

The guard on the side said: "Bold, this is the Ninth Highness."

"Yo, I see how she looks tender and tender." The old man gave the little girl a pulse in front of Gong Yu.

Gong Yu was taken aback, this old man might really be a doctor, and he could tell at a glance that he was a woman, so he waved his hand to silence the guards, and when the old man left his hand, he asked, "Is the doctor a doctor?"

At that time, several doctors who were on the side said: "His Royal Highness, don't be blinded by this old man. He is a magic stick, and he talks about it all day."

The old man laughed in disapproval, and was about to turn around and leave when Gong Yu stepped forward and whispered, "I wonder if Mr. can find out the cause?"

"Sickness?" The old man laughed and said sideways, "This is poison."

Gong Yu suddenly felt a chill on his back, reached out to hold the old man and asked, "Is there a solution?"

"Do you believe my old man's words, Your Highness?"

"I believe." Gong Yu nodded.

The old man stopped laughing, and said solemnly, "The old man has a good grasp of the disease, but this antidote uses poison to fight poison.

"Why?"

"That little girl just tried the old man's antidote, but she is too weak, of course, the antidote may be too heavy." The old man said to himself.

He seemed to have no idea how indifferent this was.

Gong Yu let go of her hands in fear, but looking at the disaster victims everywhere, she had to say, "I can arrange for you what you need."

"Okay, the old man wants you to test the medicine for me, how about it?"

"I...?" Gong Yu stared at the old man and replied, "Okay."

"Xiaowa isn't just kidding. Once you take too much medicine, you'll be dead."

"It's okay, the big deal is that I'll have someone grab my husband and give me my life." Gong Yu responded half-jokingly.

The old man laughed and replied, "It's interesting, this old man will take this old life to play with you."

It's not that simple to test the medicine. Gong Yu had to get sick first and drink the old man's medicine, but after half a day, Gong Yu felt that she couldn't do it.

I was drowsy and filled with potions, only to hear the old man muttering that this is not enough, there is still a medicine.

Gong Yu suddenly regretted a little, what if this old man is really a magician?

In the half-dream and half-awake, Gong Yu only felt that she was roasting on the fire, but the next second she was thrown into the cold pool water, and suddenly fell into a drowsiness.

When he woke up again, there seemed to be a person beside him. Because it was very bright outside, Gong Yu couldn't see what this person looked like, but he just felt very kind. In my ears, I heard Dai Ruyan's voice clearly calling out:

"Little Jiu, don't sleep anymore."

Gong Yu felt that she was afraid that she was dreaming. Dai Ruyan was still in the capital, how could she have come to this remote town.
