Xiao Qian returned to the yamen and leaned on the chair. After sniffing for a while, he vaguely heard Lu Zhaonan talking outside.

"Forget it, let Lord Xiao take a rest for a while. Anyway, this matter is not within the scope of Lord Xiao's responsibilities."

"Sir Lu, is it really messy outside the city?"

"Yes! Seeing that the people around you can't cure them, they die one by one. Maybe the next one to die may be the one who dies. It is understandable to want to escape, but the problem is that if you escape, you will harm others. General Feng from the Five City Military and Ma Si must not be anxious? He will kill someone in a hurry. Now, he will be in chaos."

Xiao Qian woke up with a sudden inspiration, got up and walked out.

"Zhaonan, what's the situation?"

Lu Zhaonan said: "Why are you awake? I'm talking very quietly."

"Don't talk nonsense, just say it."

Lu Zhaonan briefly explained the situation.

Last night, a few people in the quarantine center were crazy and wanted to run out. The doctors went to stop him. As a result, those people pulled the doctor's face shield and spit on the doctor and the officers and soldiers stationed there. The officers and soldiers were afraid that they would have viruses on them and dared not arrest them. General Feng happened to go over to inspect and ordered the killing when he saw this.

Then somehow, this matter spread. It changed. It said that the court saw that the epidemic could not be controlled and that everyone in the quarantine center was slaughtered. Everyone should not become irritable. Early in the morning, they held up their hoes, waved their sickles, and kitchen knives to rush to the card, with great casualties.

The five cities have added troops.

Xiao Qian supports his forehead. People are unstable during the epidemic and are most likely to cause trouble.

"Let's go and take a look."

"Xiao Qian, what are we going to do? It's too dangerous over there now."

"The danger must be gone. The people in the Five City Military and Ma Si are very determined to kill, but the more they kill the people, the stronger the resistance. In the end, it will really become a massacre." Xiao Qian walked out of the yamen.

Lu Zhaonan had no choice but to keep up.

When he arrived at the isolation center outside the city, Xiao Qian was stunned. He saw Mo Daozhe, a spearman from the five cities, surrounded a group of people, and even sent archers. The indignant people, holding hoes, brooms, and kitchen knives... and confronted each other with glaring eyes, dozens of corpses lay in front of them.

"What are you doing? Put away all the bows, arrows, swords and guns." Xiao Qian went up and scolded the officers and soldiers first.

General Feng, who led the troops, naturally recognized Xiao Qian, but he did not take this Tenth Highness seriously.

"Your Highness, you should not interfere in this matter. Maintaining public security in the isolation center is a task assigned by the court to this general."

Xiao Qian said coldly: "The court wants you to maintain public order, not to let you kill people. The swords and guns of Dasheng soldiers will only face foreign enemies, not their own people."

"The court has an order that before the epidemic is over, all people in the quarantine center are not allowed to leave. Now they want to get out of the card and run away. If the epidemic spreads and the court blames it, can your highness bear the responsibility?" General Feng said angrily. The tenth highness stood and spoke without a pain in his back, and ran to point fingers. He was the most annoying of such people.

If the above really blames it, the knife will only be placed on his neck, not on the prince's head.

"I'll take it." Xiao Qian was also forced.

The two of them had a confrontation, and General Feng was angry and angry: "Okay, everyone has heard it. If someone ran out from here today, the responsibility will be taken against the Tenth Highness."

General Feng waved his hand, and the officers and soldiers took away the weapons in their hands, but did not dare to retreat.

Xiao Qian then walked to the front of the people and kept a certain distance. He did not put down the weapons in his hands, but the anger in his eyes was no longer so strong.

They heard what His Highness said to General Feng. In their opinion, His Highness might not let them go, but at least he could reason.

"Everyone, I am the prefect of Shuntian and the tenth prince of the dynasty. I would like to ask you to listen to me."

"After the epidemic, the court isolated you as soon as possible. Why? In order to prevent the epidemic from spreading. The epidemic is as fierce as a tiger, no one has experienced it more deeply than you. I can watch the pain of the death of relatives and friends without hesitation, and I understand the fear that bad luck will fall on my head, but what can I do? We are already trapped in it. Is it because we have encountered misfortune that we have to bring misfortune to others? What is the difference between murder and committing life?"

"We don't want to die, but you have to give up on us." said a commoner.

"It's nonsense, this is a rumor. If the court wants to give up on you, why are the doctors still there?" Xiao Qian pointed to the direction of the medical center, where dozens of doctors stood.

"They are all doctors with the most skilled medical skills selected from the Imperial Hospital. They studied hard for many years and went through many assessments before entering the Imperial Hospital. They could have lived a safe life in the Imperial Hospital with a generous salary, but when they heard that there was a smallpox epidemic here, they came desperately. They are doctors and know more than anyone how terrible the epidemic is. But they are determined to risk being infected here, take care of patients day and night, and try every means to save your lives. So many of them have fallen, but have you seen one of them escape because they are afraid of escaping?"

"Don't tell me that doctors are responsible for treating diseases and saving people. Everyone's life is only once, and it is extremely precious. Your life is the same. They understand, so they don't retreat."

The doctors from the Medical Department and the Imperial Hospital were moved to tears.

When they could hear what the Tenth Highness said, they felt that the hardships and hardships of more than half a month were worth it.

They don’t want much, only the word “understanding” is enough!

Xiao Qian said, pointing to the other side: "There are also officials responsible for your food and clothing. For you, they work hard every day and cannot reunite with their families. If the epidemic is not eliminated, they cannot go home for a day. Don't they want to leave? But they know that in the epidemic, they have no choice but to give up their families for everyone. This is their responsibility."

The officials couldn't help but wiped their tears, and were moved by understanding and affirmation, and were still a little ashamed.

In fact, they complain every day, why is this unlucky errand on their turn?

Many people involuntarily put down their "weapons."

"There are also these officers and soldiers who are here every day, not to take you as prisoners, but to guard countless people behind you from the disease."

The officers and soldiers couldn't help but straighten their backs. Oh my god... After the Tenth Highness said this, he actually felt a little amazing!
