"I do not deserve?"

Chang Ning pointed at himself, really not sure if the words he heard came from Yan Mu's mouth, but looking at his disgusted expression, there seemed to be nothing to disbelieve.

"I am the princess of Changning County in Beijin, and my father is the king. I was ordered to come to DaRong, and I will receive your DaRong courtesy. I... I am not worthy?"

Yan Mu held the hilt of the sword and asked impatiently, "Who is the person behind you?"

"What if I don't tell you?" Chang Ning put her index finger against the blade of the sword. The blade was really sharp and instantly cut her finger. The blood stung her eyes. "Kill me. I will die in your hands." , I am considered stupid to the end.”

Yan Mu took a deep look at Chang Ning, but put away his sword the next moment.

"I have already guessed who the person behind you is." He stood up and looked at Chang Ning condescendingly. "I would like to advise you one last time, leave Da Rong and return to Beijin immediately. If you don't listen, you will do it again next time." I, this sword will cut off your throat, and you will die in my hands. Huh, for you, it is indeed quite stupid."

After saying that, Yan Mu turned around and walked outside.

Chang Ning looked at Yan Mu's decisive departure, with hatred more than love, eroding her heart bit by bit.

The next day, Liu Yunxiang and his two children had breakfast, and Qu Moran came with Qu Yi. The three children didn't care that it was cold outside and started playing in the yard excitedly.

Liu Yunxiang poured a cup of hot tea for Qu Moran, "Li Zhu is alone in the medicine hall, is it okay?"

Qu Moran nodded, "He can treat some minor ailments, including headaches and fever. Besides, it's chaotic outside now. People don't go out as much as possible. Minor ailments are taken care of at home, and there's no one in the medicine hall."

"How is Quxing?"

"I'm getting more and more confused." Qu Moran said and sighed, "Thanks to Li Zhu, otherwise I would have to take care of the medicine hall and the old and the young by myself, and I would be really powerless."

"This guy Li Zhu is capable and sincere."

"I taught him medical skills, and I am also very grateful to him."

While the two were talking, the old prince hurried over. He was wearing that cotton coat, which was actually not thick. He was indeed sweating profusely at the moment.

"What is this, old man?"

The old prince opened his mouth. He couldn't bear it anymore, so he poured a cup of tea to moisten his throat. "This is indeed wrong!"

Liu Yunxiang didn't understand this sentence that came out of nowhere.

The old prince told Liu Yunxiang what happened yesterday. He met a family of three in an alley and advised them to go back to Shannian Camp and wait until night to see them. All three of their family were dead.

"They said that this family of three died due to a sudden epidemic. But when I saw them, the child was indeed dying of hunger, but the two adults were still fine. Why did he... just die!"

When Liu Yunxiang heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "You didn't feel something was wrong last night, but you feel something is wrong now?"

The old prince came over and said mysteriously: "I went to Shan Nian Camp this morning and saw the officers and soldiers of the camp on the outskirts of Beijing carrying out many corpses from Shan Nian Camp. There was also a commotion inside. There was a lot of commotion."

"How many?"

"There are dozens of them."

Liu Yunxiang frowned, "It stands to reason that the Imperial Hospital has given prescriptions and the imperial court has also distributed medicinal materials. After so many days, the epidemic should be under control. Why is it getting worse and worse? It is really strange."

Liu Yunxiang glanced at Qu Moran as he spoke, "Okay, Sister Qu, come with us to find out what the disease is and give you a useful prescription."

Qu Moran nodded, "Okay, I haven't treated anyone with this disease, but I'm really curious."

Liu Yunxiang asked Jinyan and Zijin to stay at home to take care of their three children. She took Qu Moran with her and went to the Shannian Camp with the old prince.

When we arrived outside the camp, we could see steaming white steam from a distance. Rice porridge was boiling in several large pots, and steamed buns were also coming in baskets.

"Mom, if you just hold on a little longer, we'll have food to eat soon!"

"I'm hungry……"

"Come on, come on, we're saved!"

A young man ran towards the Shan Nian camp from outside carrying an old woman who was so thin that only her skeleton was left on her back.

There are many people rushing here on this road. They are all those poor people who tried their best to escape outside, but still couldn't find a way to survive outside. Now they heard that they could have food when they went back, so they were willing to get into the cage. people.

Walking further, you can see a long queue outside the porridge shed, waiting to receive porridge and steamed buns.

"I'm not here to cause trouble, I just want to see those children!"

"Get away quickly, don't hinder us!"

"Just call those kids out and let me take a look!"

"If you make trouble again, I'll send you to jail!"

"You are unreasonable!"

"Someone, get rid of her!"

Hearing the noise, Liu Yunxiang followed the sound and saw Xi'er who was challenging some officers and soldiers.

She smiled helplessly and hurriedly pulled the old prince over.

"What's going on?" the old prince asked.

Because he always came to Shan Nian Camp, the officers and soldiers all knew him and did not dare to be rude. He quickly replied: "Reporting to the prince, this woman is clamoring to see some children inside, but His Highness has ordered that no one is allowed to approach Shan Nian Camp. , and you are not allowed to see people inside to prevent the spread of the disease."

This makes sense. The old prince looked at Xi'er, waved his hand and said, "You little girl, please stop causing trouble."

"I didn't cause trouble. When I first came here, I saw them carrying the body of a boy. I know this boy. He was the one they took away from the alley a few days ago. I suspect that other children also suffered. Oh, they must have been cruel!"

"There is no proof, stop talking nonsense!"

"Otherwise, how could a good person die? Sister Liu gave them cotton clothes and dry food when they left!"

"In short, we dare not disobey His Highness the Fourth Prince's order."

Seeing that Xi'er was still arguing, Liu Yunxiang pulled her and asked her if she could see clearly that he was indeed one of the dozen children they had taken in.

Xi'er stamped her feet anxiously, "I have been with them day and night for many days, how can I admit my mistake!"

Liu Yunxiang frowned when he heard this. Those children were not sick, and they had been raised by her for a few days, and their health had improved a lot. How could it be...

At this time, another corpse was brought out. Liu Yunxiang gave the old prince a look. The old prince understood and immediately stepped forward to stop him.

"He also died of a sudden epidemic?" the old prince asked.

The person carrying the corpse replied: "Yes, he died of illness."

The old prince looked at the corpse. He was still a young man. His face was pale and there were no external injuries. He looked like he had died of illness.

While the old prince was blocking him, Liu Yunxiang pulled Qu Moran forward and said, "Sister Qu, look at this, does this person seem to have died of illness?"

Qu Moran couldn't confirm it just by looking at it, so he took two steps forward, wanting to lift up the corpse's top to see what symptoms were left on the skin surface.

"His Royal Highness has given an order that no one is allowed to approach the Shannian Camp!" The fourth prince Qin Shengrui came over. When he saw the old prince, he hurriedly showed respect, saluted, and then said: "It's my uncle, you have nothing to do. You’re here for nothing, it’s great to take the dog for a walk, why do you always come here!”
