Chapter 503
The carriage and the imperial doctors left for Yi River City.
In the imperial hall, the officials' remonstrance paper flew into the palace like a snowflake.
The emperor seemed to have made up his mind. He didn't even glance at them as he ordered Xu Li to burn the books.
Grand Princess Yi De had the food brought out and placed in front of the Emperor. "Your Majesty, please eat some food. It is more important to take care of the dragon's body."
The emperor raised his eyes. He no longer had the cold and unyielding attitude he had when facing the officials. His tired face had traces of unease on it. "My royal sister, is Jun'er going to be okay?"
"Don't worry, he'll be fine. Yao`er will be fine as well. The two of them are both good kids, so they will definitely return safely."
When King Yu received the letter from the capital, he could not help but smile.
When the personal guard saw his expression, he relaxed slightly. "My lord, the Yishui City …"
"Imperial Father has already sent an imperial physician over. They will arrive in a few days to help control the situation in Yi River City." King Yu rubbed the gold medallion that Mu Yunyao had given him. Seeing the gold medallion as if it were a monarch, his imperial aunt felt really sorry for Yao'er. Fortunately, he had this gold medallion, making it much more convenient for him to do things.
With the support of King Yu and the help of Supervisor Qin, a camp was built on the mountainside.
Food and medicine were being sent up the mountain one after another. News from the outside also continued to spread.
After reading it, the space between Yue Zhong's eyebrows relaxed slightly, revealing a hint of joy: "Yao'er, Father sent all of the imperial physicians from the imperial physicians over to help stabilize the situation in Yishui City."
Mu Yunyao placed the medicine bowl beside King Yue and was very happy when she heard this. "It seems that the Emperor wants to protect Yi River City."
With Prince Jin around, the officials in the imperial court would definitely try their best to persuade the emperor to forbid Yan Yi City from becoming the second Yu City. Fortunately, he did not succeed, otherwise, they would have to find a way to escape right now.
"In here, the prescription that you gave me has been of great help. Once the plague abates, Royal Father will definitely heavily reward you."
Mu Yunyao had given the prescription to King Yu and stealthily sent it into the capital through his hands. She was doing this so that he could make a decision when he made it. As the ruler of a nation, his royal father had ordered the city gates to be closed, trapping all the citizens within. He looked calm and collected, but his heart must have been in extreme pain, because now that he had the chance to suppress the outbreak, regardless of what reason he had, he would try to find a way to keep Yi Shui city, because once he succeeded, he would have no chance of survival.
The prestige of the imperial government would be greatly boosted. If they failed, the consequences would be the same as destroying Yishui City.
Mu Yunyao recalled the medicinal formula's origins, and a faint look of nostalgia flashed in her eyes. "This formula came from the hands of a woman who has extraordinary medical skills. I don't dare to claim credit for it." Later, when he taught her his medical skills, he gave her the prescription so that she could take it from him. It was a pity that before she could give him the prescription, the Jin Emperor gave her away. As the time came for her to show up
If she was near enough and knew that the prescription had been seized by someone else, would she take the initiative to look for him? That person's character was the one that couldn't stand to be taken advantage of the the most.
"What is Yao'er thinking?" There was nostalgia on her face, and the smile on her face was especially gentle. It was as if she was missing someone. "I'm thinking of a friend. Who knows, she might come to find me soon. I'll introduce you two to her then." Mu Yunyao did not intentionally avoid him. She had already revealed many different things in front of King Yue. King Yue's unquestioning attitude made her a little wary.
Now that they had promised each other, there was no point in saying more.
"Alright." After the camp was built, more and more refugees rushed over. Mu Yunyao did not refuse anyone who came. No matter who it was, they would be accepted and settled in. It was just that before entering the camp, they had to go through a doctor's pulse examination. If they found out that there was an outbreak, they had to go to a tent that was isolated …
Residence.
Many of the victims found themselves in need of isolation, resisting and even wanting to turn around and flee.
Mu Yunyao had long since given the death order. Anyone who entered this campsite wouldn't be able to leave without permission, and anyone who didn't listen to her orders would be killed on the spot! Fortunately, there was no one who was determined to leave.
Mu Yunyao looked at the medicine bowl on the table and reminded King Yue, "Fourth Master, the medicine has cooled down enough. You can drink now."
King Yue turned his head and stared at the medicine bowl for a while before taking a big gulp. After that, his entire forehead unconsciously creased.
Mu Yunyao chuckled and took out a candied fruit, before raising her hand and stuffing it into his mouth. After getting along with Yue Yang for the past few days, she realised that Yue Yang had a lot of little habits. For example, he didn't like drinking soup medicine, so although he wouldn't show it, he would always stare at it for a while before drinking it, as if that was how he could stop staring at the medicine bowl. For example, although he had a cold personality, he was extremely shy.
When she was shy, her expression would be colder than usual, but her ears would become red.
She had never experienced this kind of relationship before, but she felt that it was incomparably sweet and beautiful.
With the candied fruit in his mouth, the Titan King raised his eyes to look at Mu Yunyao's smiling face. The tip of his ears had indeed turned red, and the warmth in his eyes gradually melted, transforming into a deep and shallow whirlpool that seemed to be able to pull a person's mind in.
Mu Yunyao suddenly wanted to reach out and touch his eyes to see if she could extract a star from them. The instant her fingertips touched his eyelashes, Si Qin's voice suddenly rang out outside the tent, "Prince, Princess, someone's causing a ruckus outside."
Mu Yunyao abruptly regained her senses and hurriedly retracted her movements. "Fourth Master is resting well, I'll take my people to take a look."
"I'll go with you." After recuperating for the past few days, his body had already recovered by more than half.
Mu Yunyao saw him stand up so quickly without a trace of reluctance, and she nodded her head in agreement.
Because it was located halfway up the mountain, there weren't many flat areas where tents could be built. Thus, the camp gradually extended towards the foot of the mountain, and the further you went, the closer you got to the Yi River inner city.
At this time, a man was being held captive on the ground, still shouting non-stop: "Let me leave, I want to leave … …" "Let me go …"
When the guards saw King Yue and Mu Yunyao walk over, they immediately bowed and greeted, "Greetings Your Highness King Yue, greetings Princess Wen Xian." Their identities had already spread throughout the camp, which was why many of the victims were willing to listen to the arrangements. Even though they were in isolation, they didn't fight with their lives on the line because with a prince and princess overseeing the camp, their lives were much safer.
