Chapter 65: Plague (3)
Zuo Yu left, and Zhou Yan was left alone to bury himself in government affairs. This was the only thing he could do now. If he went to see Yin Yin, he would be turned away. It would be better to keep himself busy than to be upset alone. At least when he was busy, he could forget about those annoying things.
In the past, Zhou Yan would only do things that interested him, and would not care about the lives of others. But now it is different. He has something he wants to protect, so he will change. In order to implement the new concept, and to make Yin Yin look at him more, and more importantly, to win Yin Yin's heart, he began to care about everything around him that would affect him, and work was also inevitable. As long as he could get Yin Yin's favor, he would change. Maybe he himself didn't know it, but unknowingly, because of his belief, he gradually looked like a competent prince. Those who had heard the rumors and were afraid of him gradually began to have a good evaluation of him...
Located in a remote village near Weicheng.
Not long ago, this place was just like any other village, where people worked from sunrise to sunset and returned home from sunset. Because it was a village bordering Weicheng, the harvest from crops was pretty good. The villagers were not rich, but they had enough food and clothing and lived a happy life... However, man proposes, God disposes. A sudden disaster began to befall, starting with the first infected person. Gradually, the villagers began to be infected. Upon hearing the news, Zhou Yan immediately dispatched a famous doctor from Weicheng. After diagnosing it as "plague", Zhou Yan immediately ordered a blockade of the village area.
After sealing off the infected villages, Zhou Yan did not give up on treating them directly. Although there are no signs of plague, once infected, there is no cure. This is just a traditional saying. According to the current situation in the world, Zhou Yan believed that the possibility of a plague breaking out in this period was quite high and that it would be the same as those places where it had broken out before, so he quickly took action. His calmness in the face of danger and his approach to things were recognized by everyone, because isolating people and areas infected with the plague was the right choice. However, Zhou Yan did not give up on the villagers infected with the plague. He sent famous doctors and provided various herbs, which was equivalent to giving the best medicine to those infected people, letting them know that the government had not given up on them, which could more or less increase their desire to survive.
【Xinzhu Garden】.
Feng Qinghan, who had just arrived, met Xiuying who was coming out of Yinyin's room, holding a meal that had turned cold without being touched...
"Is Yinyin eating again?"
"Mr. Feng?"
Feng Qinghan walked up to Xiuying, who looked worried.
"Is she better?"
"It's still the same. She always looks absent-minded and absent-minded. She won't say anything when asked. I advise her to eat only occasionally. I'm really afraid that if she continues like this, she will fall ill again."
"Okay, I'll go in and see her."
"Yes, then I'll send the things down first."
Xiuying has always had no objection to Feng Qinghan's arrival, because sometimes after Feng Qinghan came, Yinyin would become more energetic. Only this time was special, and Yinyin did not say that she did not want to see Feng Qinghan. Feng Qinghan came back every day since Yinyin became dull. Even if he could not relieve her worries, Xiuying felt that it was enough to have someone to accompany Yinyin at this time. After all, there might be some things that Yinyin could not say to her, but she could say to Feng Qinghan.
Xiuying left, and Feng Qinghan entered the room. There was a table full of hot food, which was obviously what Xiuying had just changed. Yinyin was sitting by the window, leaning against the wall, looking out the window. I don't know if she was looking at the scenery, but from her expression, she was probably in a daze. The bracelet on her right wrist was particularly eye-catching and bright. Seeing the bracelet, Feng Qinghan felt happy...
"Don't you think it's a waste of the effort put into making such delicious food just to be displayed for your enjoyment?"
Feng Qinghan's words did not cause Yinyin to react. Yinyin was still staring out the window in a daze. Feng Qinghan knew that saying these words to Yinyin was meaningless, otherwise Yinyin would not be like this. Feeling a little helpless, he walked up to Yinyin and looked out the window like Yinyin...
"cold!"
"What's up?"
"Can I hear you play a song?"
“It’s my honor.”
Yin Yin's sudden opening of the mouth was a request. Feng Qinghan nodded readily and immediately turned to the table where the piano was placed. After a while, the sound of the piano had echoed throughout the [Xinzhu Garden].
Listening to Feng Qinghan's piano music, Yin Yin thought of the first time she heard Zhou Yan playing not long ago. She could still hear that melody. She knew Zhou Yan was not lying. Perhaps Ma Feng's death was just an accident, but his death from excessive torture was of course related to Zhou Yan. A life was simply dispensable in Zhou Yan's eyes. Yin Yin could not understand it. However, in the final analysis, everything was caused by herself. While blaming Zhou Yan, she might blame herself more... If Ma Feng was executed directly, Yin Yin might feel less She wanted to make sure that she didn't feel any less guilty, but that was not the case. He died after suffering endless torture. It seemed that Zhou Yan's order was correct, but she was the real murderer. She couldn't blame others, but only herself for being willful at the moment. She knew that Zhou Yan valued her deeply, and even a small injury would make Zhou Yan do cruel things for it. She was the one who made Zhou Yan, who was always very calm in front of her, become cruel. She could not deny that the word "cruel" flashed through Yin Yin's mind, as if something similar had happened before?
