Shannan Road

When Yu Zhigan entered Shannan Road and walked forward three miles to a pass, he met officials from Shannan Road.

"I have seen Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

An Shannan Road official with a thick cloth wrapped in his mouth and nose immediately saluted after seeing Yu Zhigan.

"What are you doing?"

"Your Highness, an epidemic has occurred on Shannan Road. We are arresting refugees who fled to prevent refugees from spreading smallpox!"

"Whose order?"

"Go back to Your Highness, it was the order issued by Zhong Biezhu!"

"Don't drive Zhong?"

"Your Highness, it's Shannan who said goodbye to the horse, Zhongnan, Zhongnan, and Zhongnan!"

"Well done, you can continue to guard. If you find refugees, first identify them. Isolate the sick patients, and isolated those who are not sick. If you have not developed any illness for fourteen days, you can let them go!"

Hearing Yu Zhigan's words, the official quickly wrote down: "But Your Highness, our prince, we don't have enough staff. Now even if we arrest the refugees who fled, we don't have enough food here, your highness..."

"I will leave a thousand people for you, and there is no need to worry about food, I will leave enough food for you!"

After saying that, Yu Zhigan led the team to prepare to enter the level.

The official who was not worthy of his name immediately stopped Yu Zhigan: "Your Highness, there are patients in the checkpoint. You have a noble status, so don't go in!"

Yu Zhi smiled dryly: "Don't worry, we have been vaccinated and will not be infected. You and the soldiers around you are not infected. You can find some vaccines to Dr. Hua Tuohua. You don't have to worry about being infected in the future!"

Hearing Yu Zhigan's words, the official was stunned for a moment and knelt on the ground: "Thank you for your life-saving grace, thank you for your highness!"

"Let's go!"

When Yu Zhigan entered the level, there was a pungent smell of lime in the whole city. No one could be seen on the road. Occasionally, some people could be seen staring at Yu Zhigan and others through the cracks in the door.

The level is better. Even if someone dies, someone will collect the body. However, when Yu Zhigan and others leave the level and go deep into Shannan Road, some corpses can be seen everywhere on the roadside, lying on the ground and struggling to move forward.

"Your Highness, after checking, they all died of smallpox!"

"Damn Wang Dong!"

When I entered Shannan Road and then went to Xiangyang, Yu Zhigan was almost silent all the way. The sentence "Ninety-Nine-Empty" of "Nine-Nine-Empty" Yu Zhigan always thought it was a sentence in an idiom, but when he arrived at Shannan Road, Yu Zhigan found that what was even more terrifying than "Nine-Nine-Empty" was that there was no one in a hundred miles and there were corpses everywhere.

Xiangyang City is the capital of Xiangyang County, Shannan Road, with seven counties under its jurisdiction. The original population was about 500,000, but now it may not even have 300,000.

Xiangyang is also the most severe area in the entire epidemic. When Yu Zhigan's army entered the city, there was no one who could be seen on the street. Only Shannan said goodbye Zhong Nan and a few people were waiting at the city gate.

"Weichen Shannan said goodbye to him and met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Thank you for your hard work, what's going on now!"

"Your Highness..."

Zhong Nan briefly reported the situation to Yu Zhigan. The more Yu Zhigan listened, the darker his face became: "Where is Wang Dong now?"

"I don't know!"

"Issuing a wanted order, spread across the country, and those who find Wang Dong will be rewarded with a reward of tens of thousands of taels!"

"Here!"

Three months later, Yu Zhigan sat on the chair tiredly and looked at Zhong Shan below: "Has the statistics been made?"

"Your Highness, it's already counted!"

After saying that, he handed the memorial in his hand to Yu Zhigan. Yu Zhigan looked at the memorial in his hand, frowned, took a deep breath, slowly opened it, and glanced at the numbers on it.

"One,300,000 people? Three hundred thousand households?"

Zhong Nan nodded: "Your Highness, this is the number of people who have been counted in preliminary quantities!"

"Six hundred thousand households and two million. Seven million people, which is half the loss?"

Yu Zhigan's hands trembled and put the memorial on the table.

"Your Highness, thanks to Your Highness's vaccine, otherwise more people might have died in Shannan Road. However, Your Highness may not have so many people died, and some people have escaped, and perhaps more people have escaped..."

"I get it, step back, I want to be alone and quiet!"

"I'm going to leave!"

In three months, millions of people died. This number is not the final number. The number of people may fluctuate. If Yu Zhigan and others had not sent six guards to blockade them in time, it might have spread more widely.

"Your Highness, Wang Dong may have found it!"

At this time, Jing Ke appeared beside Yu Zhigan. Jing Ke was sent to Lingnan Road two months ago to investigate the plague in Lingnan Road.

“Where?”

"Maybe in the palace of the Prince of Yidu County!"

"Prince of Yidu? Who?"

When Yu Zhigan heard this name, he didn't expect that his uncle or relative was the Prince of Yidu!

"Your Highness the Second Prince!"

After hearing this, Yu Zhigan was stunned and looked at Jing Ke: "Are you sure you are the second child?"

"Confirm that the second prince's concubine is Wang Dong's second daughter. When the Prince of Yidu was in Chang'an City, the two had close relationships. We found out that Wang Dong raised prices this time, and a large amount of food was transported from the Prince of Yidu. We found out that Wang Dong was still secretly training the dead soldiers. When Wang Dong disappeared in Xiangyang, the witness finally found that he was also rushing to the Prince of Yidu's fiefdom!"

After hearing this, Yu Zhigan slowly closed his eyes: "What do you mean is that Wang Dong and the second brother united to achieve what happened today!"

"Yes, we have arrested many of Wang Dong's confidants. The place where the plague broke out this time is not far from where Wang Dong trained the dead soldiers. Wang Dong concealed the reason because he was worried that the place where he trained the dead soldiers was too close, so..."

“Is the message accurate?”

"Accurately, the secret spy from the Jinyiwei came to report that some strangers came to the Prince of Yidu's house and lived in seclusion. It has been confirmed that it was Wang Dong himself!"

"Damn it, damn it!"

Yu Zhigan clenched his fists slowly. If he could fly to the second child now, Yu Zhigan would definitely grab the second child's head and ask, is his mind full of mud? At this time, he dared to make money from the national crisis? Why do you really think he is famous?

"Your Highness, do you want to report to Your Majesty?"

Yu Zhigan closed his eyes and thought, how to deal with this matter? Millions of people died because of their second child...

"Report all to my father, and add a sentence. I want to kill the second child to report to the millions of people in heaven!"

"Your Highness, the Prince of Yidu is His Majesty's son, your younger brother..."

"You can't stay! If you stay, he will do something evil!" Yu Zhigan said gritting his teeth.

"Your Highness..."

"Report it truthfully!"

"Here!"
