Chapter 291: Mess

The official in front of him didn't want to believe this fact in his heart, after all, the people in this city had gotten along with him day and night, and he still remembered that the tofu sold by Wang Po in the small courtyard in the east was tender and smooth, and the owner of the cold powder shop in the west courtyard would greet him warmly every time he saw him......

Let him watch the people in this city die one after another like this, how can he bear it!

But this is a natural disaster, and he has no choice, he can't just let the people in this city out, if there are a few people carrying the epidemic out of this city, then once the outbreak starts, I am afraid that the whole country will fall into the shadow of this epidemic.

His face couldn't help but turn pale, and he pursed his lips, "This is a method of controlling the epidemic that has been handed down through the dynasties, and there is no other way besides this method!" ”

He is just a master bookkeeper next to the prefect of Chenjiang Town, just to come up with ideas or something for the prefect, the prefect is gone, and the entire Chenjiang Town has become what it is now, if it weren't for the officials from the capital who needed him, he would have gone with the people in this city a long time ago, where would he still live here!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help crying bitterly, and the officials of Chenjiang Town around him and several squires who were temporarily brought over to take care of things couldn't help but cry.

At this time, I heard a commotion at the gate of the city, and dozens of people quickly poured out of the resting tent on the west side, and gathered directly at the gate to confront the soldiers with spears in their hands.

"We're going out, let us out!"

"Let's not wait here to die! Let us out! ”

At this time, the people gathered at the gate of the city were all in rags, men and women, old and young, but the expressions on their faces were the same, they were all numb and desperate, and they all stared at the soldiers in front of them and shouted.

Seeing that the victims below were making a little unseemly in front of the prince, Master Chen hurriedly wiped the tears on his face, and said loudly in his voice: "You all be quiet, the court will definitely settle everyone well, and it will definitely not ignore you, you see, this is His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness has come to visit us all on behalf of the emperorβ€”β€”"

However, after a moment of silence in the crowd below, it became even more chaotic.

"The prince didn't even enter the city when he came, he obviously wanted to lock us up in the city and let us wait for death! Let us out! ”

"Let us out! We're going to get out, we don't want to die here-"

All of a sudden, more and more people came out of the tent and rushed to the gate of the city, with the intention of rushing out of the gate.

Seeing that the appearance in front of him was out of control, Lu Chuan couldn't help but glared fiercely at Cui Shangshu, who proposed to go up to the city wall, and Master Chen, who attracted all the people below, and hurriedly opened his mouth to the prince and said, "Your Highness, you better go down the city wall first." ”

The prince looked at the appearance of the people below, and his eyes couldn't help but be gloomy, and he didn't answer, but stood quietly on the city wall.

At this time, the city gate was already in chaos, seeing that a man was about to break through the city gate and escape from this Chenjiang Town, the soldier who was sent by Changting Hou to guard the city gate finally couldn't bear it anymore, and directly picked up the spear and picked it up, and directly stabbed the man in the chest, screamed, and tilted his head directly.

This movement immediately calmed down the people who still wanted to flee outside, and the crowd was suddenly silent.

At this moment, only a burst of crying broke out in the crowd, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, and a woman with a boy about three years old in her arms stumbled towards the man who had just been impaled.

"Daddy, you can't die, how can our family live if you die?"

The child in her arms seemed to feel her mother's grief, and she also cried loudly, and at this time, the woman rushed directly to the city gate with the child in her arms, crying like crazy: "Please, I am really not sick, my child is not sick, you save my child, he can't stay in this city and wait for death, you have mercy to save himβ€”β€”"

Several spears stopped her in front of her, preventing her from taking any further step.

"You save my child, I won't go out, as long as you save my child, he's not sick, he's really not sick......," the woman reached out and pushed the child in her arms towards a soldier in front of her.

Although the woman's words and the grief all over the body made the soldiers a little unbearable, but the boss's order was not to let anyone out of the city, seeing the child being pushed over, he subconsciously stabbed the spear in his hand, and when he reacted and wanted to retract it, the child had been stabbed, and the child who felt the pain cried loudly.

"Child, my child!" Looking at the crying child in her arms, the woman finally collapsed, and rushed directly towards the spearhead that was still stained with her child's blood, "You beasts, you just kill me, and our family will be reunited!" ”

And at this time, when the soldier saw this scene, he hurriedly retracted his hand, and the woman in front of him staggered and fell directly to the ground.

The people around looked at the scene in front of them, and suddenly had an idea in their hearts, and hurriedly pushed the women and children around them to the front and rushed towards the front.

And at this time, only a "bang bang" drum sound was heard on the entire city wall, and the people and soldiers who were still pushing and shoving all stopped their movements at this time, froze in place, and unconsciously looked up in the direction of the war drum on the city wall.

I saw a young man in brocade standing in front of the war drum against the light at this time, raising the drum hammer in his hand, and striking it on the war drum again and again.

The ministers who were still arguing for a solution to the turmoil below just now couldn't help but look in that direction, and couldn't help but be stunned, wasn't the person standing in front of the war drum the prince?

And at this time, looking at the people around who were already stunned, they directly put the drum hammer in their hands next to the war drum, and then jumped directly from the city wall with a calm face.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Lu Chuan and Cui Shangshu, who were standing on the side before they had time to react, couldn't help but be shocked, and Yan Chengming, who didn't realize that the prince had gone to the war drums just now, also jumped directly from the city wall and landed in front of those people like the prince.
