Cub Nursery

When one person says this, others may not believe it, but when many people say this, three people become tigers, until everyone becomes suspicious, feeling that everyone around them is infected with smallpox, and it will soon spread to themselves .

"Master Wu is here." The war rabbit cub strode forward with a rare serious expression on his face.

Yan Xun hurriedly stood up and went to the door.

The situation outside was getting worse and worse, some people were yelling, Yan Xun could hear it clearly in the shopping mall.At this time, except for some shops, the shopping mall was still open, and there were no customers at all. When the customers heard the movement, they left the shopping mall immediately.

Wu Hongsong's expression was solemn. Originally, he should have directly led the guards to surround the place, but there were too many people in the square, and the Reading Festival also involved scholars, the Thirteenth Prince, and officials such as Zhao Yuanting.

No matter how capable the guard is, he can't stop so many people, so he can only come to see Yan Xun to see if he can do anything.

"Master Wu." Yan Xun cupped his hands.

In Yan Xun's view, Wu Hongsong can come to see him now, which represents his attitude.

Wu Hongsong didn't draw a clear line with Yan Xun, otherwise he could have entered the palace to borrow soldiers and asked the Taoist soldiers to help surround the place, and he didn't need to come to see Yan Xun at all.

"Master Yan, do you have a solution?" Wu Hongsong asked, he looked at Yan Xun anxiously, he was under pressure this time, if he couldn't, then he had no choice but to enter the palace.

"A lot of troublemakers have been arrested, but the news has already spread, and now we can only maintain it as much as possible." Yan Xun said, "Many people don't know about it, they were just incited, and now we need to appease them. Master Wu, are you willing to cooperate with me?" I go out together?"

Wu Hongsong was taken aback for a moment, not understanding Yan Xun's meaning, "Master Yan is saying?"

"The common people are being misled, and they need someone to guide them." Yan Xun said calmly, "Mr. Huo has seen those old people, and they did have smallpox. As for whether other people have smallpox, it is not yet certain. Master Wu, you Would you like to go out with me?"

I asked this question again.

Yan Xun's meaning is very clear. This incident is a double-edged sword. It may destroy an official, but it can also make an official.Wu Hongsong was able to become the governor of the capital, naturally he had means and eyesight, at this moment he suddenly understood, and couldn't help being shocked.

He didn't expect Yan Xun to plan to do this.

Looking at Yan Xun's young face, if he also contracted smallpox this time, it would definitely be a disaster. Ordinary people would have tried to avoid it, but he had to rush out.

Wu Hongsong's heart was shaken, and he bowed deeply to Yan Xun, "I would like to be with Master Yan."

"Okay." Yan Xun nodded, then turned to Jing Fengye and said, "You protect the cubs, don't let them get hurt."

The noise outside became louder and louder, and many people showed panic, and began to curse the monster at Honglu Temple, and even began to curse Jing Fengye.

The little cubs had already returned, and they all stood behind Yan Xun, looking at him eagerly.

"My lord." Jing Fengye took a step forward, looking at Yan Xun quietly.

He understood Yan Xun's meaning, now the people outside are cursing the cubs and monsters under the guidance of caring people, thinking that smallpox was brought by them.Now Yan Xun has to go out and face it by himself, let him and the cubs hide in the house.

He was unwilling, and he was even more afraid of Yan Xun getting hurt.

He put his hands behind his back and gently raised his fingers towards the back. The little fingers and thumbs met to form a circle.

"Father." Seeing Jing Fengye's hand, the baby stepped forward, looked up at Yan Xun, "Can I go out?"

The smallest cub was only a little bigger than a slap, looking at Yan Xun pitifully.His eyebrows and eyes are very similar to Yan Xun's, and there are dragon scale marks on his ears. He is Yan Xun's son and Jing Fengye's son.

Yan Xun squatted down, looked down at the baby, and said softly, "Little Dan, now is not the time for you to go out. Father goes out to block them, you stay here and take care of the brothers, okay?"

The little cubs all looked at him eagerly, they also wanted to go out and face those people.

The cubs now are different from before. They understand the laws of the Qin Dynasty, and they can tell them evidence and facts, and they can clarify bit by bit. They have a clear conscience, so they are not afraid.

But Yan Xun didn't let them go out.

The baby looked up at Yan Xun, and gradually understood.

He nodded emphatically, "Don't worry, father, I will protect my brothers well. Brother Shaanshan..."

The Shaking Mountain cub was also standing among the cubs, and he wanted to refute upon hearing this.Judging from his age, he should be the baby's older brother.

"He is also an older brother." Yan Xun gently touched the baby's head and said softly, "Go."

"En." The baby turned around, ran to stand in front of the little cubs.

The little cub opened its arms and stopped in the front.

The war rabbit cub can step over the baby's head as long as it raises its feet. The little cub can't stop him at all, but he doesn't.He looked up at Yan Xun, "Go ahead, my lord, we will be obedient."

Between willfulness and obedience, the war rabbit cub chose to be obedient.

The other cubs also nodded silently.

"I will be back soon." Yan Xun said.

He turned around and went out with Wu Hongsong. The door closed and his figure gradually disappeared.

In the room, the baby looked at the cubs very seriously, and he understood something in his heart.He is Yan Xun's son, and he is actually a little different from the cubs. At this time, he acted as Yan Xun's usual role, patted his chest and said in a milky voice, "Don't worry, my father is very powerful Yes, it never suffers."

After comforting the little cubs, the baby turned his head and saw Jing Fengye standing by the wall.

Jing Fengye couldn't go out either, he stood against the wall with his head down, looking extremely depressed.

The baby bit his lower lip, walked over, and patted Jing Fengye's shoes, "Father, cheer up! No difficulty can defeat us, nor my father!"

"En." Jing Fengye nodded, feeling a little better.

Outside, the people arranged by Yan Xun surrounded the place, the rest of the people couldn't escape at all, so they gathered at the gate of the shopping mall and cursed inside.

Seeing Yan Xun come out, everyone fell silent.

Taking advantage of this short time, Qin Shisan squeezed through the crowd and stood beside Yan Xun.

"My lord, why did you come out?" Qin Shisan was a little worried, "I sent people into the palace, and I asked my father to borrow troops, and everything will be fine here soon."

"I have to come out." Yan Xun said in a low voice, "Stay with me, don't wander around, it's not safe anywhere now."

"En." Qin Shisan nodded.

Regarding Yan Xun, Qin Shisan felt very complicated. Sometimes he envied the cubs, and sometimes he envied Yan Xun. Standing beside him now, the anxiety in his heart gradually calmed down, as if Yan Xun would help solve everything. of.

"Master Yan, is the smallpox caused by those baby monsters? Tell me something." Someone in the crowd shouted.

When everyone heard the voice and looked over, the person had already hidden and could not be found at all.

Yan Xun smiled, raised his foot and walked forward, Wu Hongsong hurriedly followed.

"When there was smallpox in the past, did monsters appear? You said that smallpox was caused by the baby monsters, so what is the evidence? The loudest one is now infected with smallpox? With so many of you gathered here, is there any evidence?" Have you seen people around you get smallpox?" Yan Xun asked as he walked forward.

Those who stood in front automatically parted ways, allowing Yan Xun to pass through unimpeded.

Yan Xun had no one to protect him, only Wu Hongsong and Qin Shisan, surrounded by crowds of people, most of them were strong men, all staring at Yan Xun, but no one dared to rush out.

He just walked forward step by step like this, and no one answered his questions.

"Everything is based on evidence. Maybe the situation is urgent now, and there is no time to find evidence, so don't spit blood on people." Yan Xun said, "If it is really a monster cub who brought smallpox, I will not be the first to spare them, but if someone splashes it Dirty water, then when I find the evidence, I will definitely not spare him!"

"Master Yan, what about the Reading Festival? Can it continue?" No one dared to answer the question, and someone began to ask about the Reading Festival.

Yan Xun glanced at the direction of the voice, "Why can't it go on? Could it be that what happened today is a big one? Has anyone died?"

"However, someone saw smallpox with their own eyes...the person was taken away by Mr. Yan, you won't deny it?" Someone shouted again.

This time Yan Xun didn't answer because he had already walked to the stage.

The people behind did not dare to follow, so Yan Xun stepped forward step by step, walked to the front of the stage, looked at the scholars who hadn't left yet, and some panic-stricken commoners, and said loudly: "I'm standing here today. Here, until the smallpox problem is resolved, I will not leave for a day. Even if there is smallpox, I will be the first to catch it!"

"I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?" Yan Xun shouted loudly.

Qin Shisan stepped forward, "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

Wu Hongsong stepped forward, "I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"

Except for Yan Xun, a prince and a court official stood at the front.

They are the ones who cherish their lives the most. After all, there are gold and silver treasures in the family and the emperor in the palace, but they are all standing at the front fearlessly at this time, threatening that they will be the first to be infected with smallpox.

The people below heard it clearly, and they all looked at the stage in a daze.

"Hey, I don't have anything at home, so I'm dying. I'm still alive and kicking, so what are you afraid of! I'm also waiting here to see who got the flowers that day."

"It's useless to go home now. Maybe it will be passed on to family members. Why don't we just wait here quietly for the results, maybe nothing will happen."

"But someone saw it with their own eyes..."

"Speaking from the facts, everyone feels fine now. What else can I do besides waiting?"

Many people realized that even if smallpox really started to spread, they could only find a way to solve it instead of making troubles, because it would be useless to make troubles.

There were still a few people who were jumping up and down and wanted to talk, when suddenly a big man appeared beside them, and took them away with their mouths covered.

Yan Xun could see clearly from the stage that someone really caused trouble on purpose.

On the stage, Zhao Yuanting had already left with his people, but Si Ping and Shi Yuanshou were still there, and they also came to stand at the front.

"It's getting dark, Si Ping, go to the shopping mall and ask them to take out all the oil lamps. Also, take out all the food in the warehouse of the shopping mall and share it with everyone. Make more gruel and bring it out for serving. They drink." Yan Xun said in a low voice, "If someone asks you for questions, don't say anything."

"Yes, my lord." Si Ping agreed and left quickly.

On the way to the shopping mall, sure enough, someone from the Ministry of Industry who doesn't talk to Si Ping very much on weekdays appeared and talked to him.Si Ping cupped his hands with a sullen face, and went straight into the shopping mall without saying a word.

The man didn't find out anything, and stood there stomping his feet angrily.

Soon, the gate of the shopping mall opened again, and the men came out carrying food.

All people can eat steaming food and drink hot porridge.Except for a small number of people who refused to eat, most people were hungry and did not refuse these foods.

Si Ping took a few big buns to the stage and handed them to Yan Xun, "My lord, eat some."

"No, I'm not hungry." Yan Xun said calmly, "there are not many things in the warehouse of the shopping mall, you go there again and ask them to send someone to the river to bring food. It's cold at night, give everyone some bedding and wraps Warm up. Tell them, the seaside remains the same.”

Si Ping hurriedly agreed, put the bun aside, and left in a hurry.

At night, the people on the other side of the river began to get busy, bringing over carts of bedding and food.

A small group of people crossed the bridge in the dark and followed the wide concrete road to the seaside. Before they approached halfway, Taoist soldiers rushed out and stopped them.

"who?"

"Everyone, everyone, we have come to the seaside to call for help under the orders of Master Yan. Something happened in the capital, so hurry up and call the master, otherwise the Lord Yan will be in trouble!"

Several Taoist soldiers looked at each other with smiles on their faces, "Yeah, something happened. Grab it, shut it down for today, and wait until the matter is over."

"Hey? What do you mean? Didn't you hear what I said?"

"It's because I heard what you said that I locked you up. We know better than you what Mr. Yan is doing. You are late."

A few Taoist soldiers arrested him without hesitation and locked him directly in a windowless concrete room.

At this time, oil lamps are lit everywhere on the beach, and the lights are brightly lit.

Guarding the city was wearing armor and leading a team to patrol outside. Jia Qing ran out and said in a panic, "General, Shashan is still in the capital! Are you going to rescue him?"

"Lord Yan will make arrangements for himself." Guard City said in a deep voice, "The seaside cannot be messed up."

Jia Qing stomped her feet angrily, "Okay, if you don't go, I will!"

The Shanshan cub is now very close to those cubs. Although he still remembers Jiaqing, he has gradually become less close to him.He is still afraid of Weishoucheng, the father and son basically don't speak, and rarely see each other, and now that Ziweishoucheng doesn't show up, Jiaqing feels that he has to go there.

Watching Jiaqing go away, Wei Shoucheng suddenly said: "If you see him, let him not worry."

Jiaqing paused, nodded, and walked away quickly.

Wave after wave of people went to the beach, but they were all caught.

Because Yan Xun let people talk a little earlier, if the seaside doesn’t change, then it won’t change, no one can say it.

Beijing.

Many people got quilts, some covered their bodies to doze off, some spread straw mats on the ground, and simply lay down to sleep.Some people still gathered around the table, their eyes rolled wildly, looking at Yan Xun from time to time.

On the stage, Yan Xun stood still, like a stone monument.

With him, Qin Shisan, and Wu Hongsong standing there, many people calmed down, knowing that it would be useless to make trouble, and it would be better to wait for the result.

At this time, the common people finally remembered that those cubs are actually very powerful, maybe they can really think of a way.

Qin Shisan sent people into the palace to borrow soldiers, and the Taoist soldiers didn't arrive until midnight.

Instead of surrounding the common people, they surrounded Yan Xun.

"My lord, they..." Qin Shisan took a look and hurriedly said, "I didn't let them... There are still some people who want to sneak away at night. The more people there, the better."

"It's okay." Yan Xun said, "It's a good thing that they can still protect us while watching us."

How could this be a good thing, these people obviously took advantage of the situation to rob Yan Xun.

Now I just think that there are many people from Yan Xun here, and there are also many Taoist soldiers, and these Taoist soldiers from the palace dare not act rashly.If there is real evidence, I am afraid they will do it immediately.

These Dao soldiers represent the attitude of the emperor, Yan Xun knows it well.

When the sky was getting dark, Si Ping came to the stage again, leaned into Yan Xun's ear and whispered, "Someone came from the palace and said two words to me, 'evidence'."

"I know." Yan Xun understood instantly.

The one in the palace is really looking for evidence, and the one who can still send the news now should be Empress Xian.

In a place that no one had seen, Bei Qi flew over the eaves and went to the home of Mrs. Zhang.

He took out his magnifying glass, put on his gloves, and began to search carefully.

After hearing the movement outside, he immediately hid quietly.

Its daybreak.

Yan Xun stayed up all night, standing on the stage.

All the troublemakers were resolved, and although the rest of the people were still a little terrified, they had already calmed down.

When they looked at Yan Xun, Wu Hongsong and Qin Shisan, they felt much more at ease.Thinking that those adults are also at risk of contracting smallpox, just like them, it seems that there is nothing uncomfortable.

"Master Yan, can there be any results today?" Xu Liangzheng walked to the front and cupped his hands at Yan Xun.

He had no intention of leaving. He ate and drank enough last night, so he asked for two beddings. One was spread out and the other was covered. Apart from his face being a little cold while sleeping, he didn't feel any discomfort.

When it was just dawn, another hot porridge was brought out, Xu Liangzheng drank some porridge, saw Yan Xun still on the stage, rolled his eyes, and came over to ask questions.

It was very quiet in the early morning, many people heard Xu Liangzheng talking, and gathered around, wanting to know what Yan Xun had to say.

Since yesterday, Si Ping has been running around spreading the word, everyone has seen this, and naturally knows that Yan Xun must have arrangements.

"It's not up to me when the result will come out, but to the evidence." Yan Xun said calmly, "Besides... Daqin has had smallpox for so many years, has he found a good medicine? If I can find a good medicine one day, I definitely won't Keep it hidden, everyone can rest assured."

"Then we still have to wait?" Xu Liangzheng raised his eyebrows.

After yesterday's accident, before Zhao Yuanting took him away, he sent the servants around him to look for him and ask him to do something.

Listening to what Yan Xun said at this time, knowing that he could not control smallpox, Xu Liangzheng knew that his opportunity had come, and he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to do something.

"Waiting, how long are we going to wait?" Seeing that Yan Xun was silent, Xu Liangzheng said again, "Are we going to wait? What if Mr. Yan can't find a good medicine? Are we all waiting to get sick? ?”

Smallpox does not necessarily lead to death, but it may leave scars on the body, unattractive appearance, and no one likes it.

Xu Liangzheng was a little excited when he saw some people gathered, and said, "Master Yan, you can find a good medicine, and you said that?"

"Master Yan really said that?" someone asked.

"Master Yan didn't say that, he made it up himself." Brother Liao said loudly, "The medicine for smallpox is hard to find, how could it be so easy to find?"

Brother Liao didn't leave either. Yesterday he personally escorted the claw cubs into the shopping mall.

Early in the morning, Brother Liao was still helping the men to distribute food. At this time, seeing Xu Liangzheng talking to himself here, he hurried over to help Yan Xun speak.In his opinion, Yan Xun gave him food and drink, which is already very good.

In previous years, if smallpox occurred anywhere, that place would be cut off. It was impossible for the imperial court to send food and bedding.

"How do you know Master Yan didn't say anything?" Xu Liangzheng asked back.

"Master Yan didn't say anything, I know." Brother Liao retorted.

Xu Liangzheng sneered, "I think you're lying. Lord Yan just said... he can find a good medicine for smallpox, and he will give us a share when the time comes. Everyone has it."

While talking, he looked at Yan Xun on the stage, waiting for Yan Xun to reply.

Yan Xun didn't speak, he looked at the rising sun in the distance with some ecstasy.

Everyone now is like the darkness under the sun, unable to receive light, and is gradually becoming rotten and withered.He once said to the cubs that everything in the world depends on light to survive.

At that time, the little cubs didn't understand, even the most powerful Jing Fengye couldn't figure it out.Yan Xun explained to them that with light, trees can eat enough and grow big.

Even human beings will get sick without light.

The sun gradually rose, and the light found the huge cement floor of the shopping mall.

Through the glass windows, the light enters into a concrete house.

"My lord, I don't know what's going on..." The snake-bodied cub got up early, rubbed his eyes with the tip of his tail, ran to the window, looked up and looked outside.

The sun was so dazzling that the little cub couldn't open his eyes.

For the first time, the cubs didn't go back to the nursery hall to sleep, didn't sleep with Yan Xun for the first time, and slept outside alone for the first time.In fact, everyone couldn't sleep last night, but the baby kept making the cubs close their eyes and sleep with a stern face.

There is no kang in the room, but a simple small bed made of some benches, covered with a quilt, on which the cubs fold their clothes and use them as pillows.

The baby is like a little adult, sitting on the edge and telling stories to everyone.

It was the story Yan Xun told, but the baby told it very well, and the cubs listened very attentively.It seemed that the noisy sounds outside, and those doubts about the baby monster disappeared, leaving only the baby's voice.

Everyone was finally too sleepy to keep their eyes open and fell asleep.

The baby found that Jing Fengye hadn't slept, he couldn't close it, so he just ignored it, lay down on the edge, covered with a small quilt corner, and fell asleep in a daze.

Then it seemed that I woke up in the blink of an eye. Before dawn, everyone lay still and pretended to be asleep.

Finally, it was dawn, and when it was time for everyone to get up, the cubs hurriedly got up to pack their bedding, packed themselves, and ran to the window to look outside.
