The quick travel journey of the cold heroine

Chapter 132: A Commoner Woman's Revenge on the Powerful (4)

In Shui Zhizi's opinion, County Magistrate Chen was a good county magistrate, even though what he did for this epidemic was minimal.

But Shui Zhizi noticed one thing: the county magistrate's office was not in Liujia Town, and County Magistrate Chen himself knew that the current situation in Liujia Town was not optimistic.

But he has been living in Liujia Town during this period and has also been visiting various clinics to see doctors.

It was only after Shui Zhizi saw the person today that she realized that County Magistrate Chen was the one who hung around the entrance of Jishiditang every day.

If County Magistrate Chen had not looked so distressed while walking around, Shui Zhizi would have thought that County Magistrate Chen was someone with ulterior motives.

However, Magistrate Chen was of low status and had too many concerns, so he hesitated to announce the epidemic to the people, making everyone work together to treat the epidemic, which wasted a lot of time.

Shui Banzi even believed that if the time was pushed back a few days, County Magistrate Chen would have ignored the requests of the officials above and ordered the treatment of the epidemic on his own initiative.

But Shui Zhizi couldn't wait any longer. The medicine to treat the epidemic had not yet been developed, and a doctor in Jishidiang had already fallen ill.

If we delay for a few more days, the consequences will be disastrous.

So Shui Zhizi decided to give County Magistrate Chen a hand. No matter what, the whole town should work together to cure the disease first.

In fact, Shui Zhizi didn't say anything, but for County Magistrate Chen, who had begun to waver, she was a great support.

The female doctor in front of her said that as long as the epidemic could be controlled, she would be able to save her life.

If the epidemic is allowed to continue like this, even if the governor does not kill him, the court will not let him go in the end.

County Magistrate Chen decided to take a gamble.

"I will issue an order tomorrow. Each household will separate all the people according to the severity of their illness. Then, we will distribute medicine to each household according to their different situations, and assign people to guard them so that no one can do anything wrong."

"I will also gather all the doctors in the town and have them listen to Jishidiang's instructions."

"No! County Magistrate Chen, you should come in person to make the doctor's arrangements. People may not be willing to listen to Jishidiang. This is a waste of time."

In fact, it was because Shui Zhizi didn’t know whether the epidemic could be completely controlled this time, and she couldn’t put Jishidiang in the spotlight.

"But I don't know how to treat illnesses." County Magistrate Chen was a little embarrassed.

"But what Lord Chen just said he would do proves that Lord Chen has long understood the prevention and treatment of epidemics. I believe Lord Chen can do it.

Doctor Liu is very experienced, you can ask him for advice, but forget about deploying other people."

Finally, County Magistrate Chen accepted Shui Zhizi's proposal and on the second day, he placed the entire town of Liujia under martial law and made every effort to treat the epidemic.

The news that there was an epidemic in Liujia Town was also announced to the public, asking people from other places not to come to Liujia Town.

The order was issued in the morning, and at noon the governor's men arrived at Liujia Town.

Everyone who entered Liujia Town was wrapped up tightly, but they said that County Magistrate Chen exaggerated and lied about government affairs, causing unrest among the people. At that time, County Magistrate Chen was to be taken away for punishment.

After giving the order, County Magistrate Chen has been staying in Liujia Town. When the governor's men came to deliver the message, Lord Chen happened to be in Jishidiang watching the situation.

Shui Zhizi watched as Lord Chen was about to be taken away, and the orders issued by County Magistrate Chen were about to be abolished. Shui Zhizi was so angry that her head was dizzy.

The people were already very panicked when they heard these orders, and many of them were unwilling to cooperate.

Their task was already difficult to accomplish, and now that the governor's men had caused such a scene in public, all their previous efforts had been wasted.

Not only Shui Zhizi, but all the doctors at Jishidiang who were already prepared were extremely angry. Doctor Liu even shouted that God wanted to destroy Liujia Town.

Looking at the chaotic scene in front of her, Shui Zhizi gritted her teeth, took out the things she received last night from her pocket and showed them to him.

"We are following the emperor's orders to treat the disease. I don't know who dares to touch Master Chen."

The guards brought by Shui Zhizi came in handy at this moment. "Yuan Shi, anyone who dares to interfere with the treatment of the epidemic today will be arrested."

The noisy voices began to quiet down, "Who are you to dare to go against the governor?"

Shui Zhizi closed her eyes. She knew that in such a small place, few people recognized King Rui's token.

So when Shui Zhizi received the letter and token from King Rui last night, she had no intention of showing up herself. She had no intention of using King Rui's token to bully others. A tall tree attracts the wind, and Shui Zhizi did not want to put herself in the spotlight.

Anyway, the people sent by the court will arrive in two or three days, so they just need to hold on for two or three days.

But the problem now is that they can't even last a day. If County Magistrate Chen's order is stopped today, it will be even more difficult for them to continue doing things next time.

So Shui Zhizi had no choice but to go ahead with it.

"Going against the governor? So when it comes to matters of life and death, is this all you guys see? Can't you see that someone has died around you?"

A few more people died from the epidemic today.

"You may as well come forward and take a look at what I have in my hand. If you still want to take County Magistrate Chen away after seeing what I have, don't blame me for being rude."

Perhaps frightened by Shui Zhizi's aura or something else, one of the governor's men walked hesitantly in front of Shui Zhizi.

"This is?"

"How come you don't recognize what I have in my hand? Why not let your governor come and take a look for himself?"

"How do you have King Rui's token?"

Shui Zhizi loosened her grip on the token and realized she recognized it. That would be easy.

"Release County Magistrate Chen, and you guys can stay here. Liu Jiaren can only come in now, but not leave. You guys better not go against me. The guards trained by the people in the Rui Palace are not pushovers."

While Shui Zhizi was speaking, Yuan Shi had already brought his guards to surround the five men of the governor.

Shui Zhizi raised the token and shouted in a louder voice: "Master Chen, all the orders issued today are the will of the court. In a few days, the court will directly send people to take over here and do their best to treat the epidemic.

There is no need to panic, just cooperate well. Only if you can cooperate well with the doctor can the epidemic be controlled as quickly as possible.

If everyone continues to disobey orders like before, go against the doctor, deliberately create chaos, or still want to escape.

I can only let the guards take action, and I will not be responsible if anyone loses their life."

"We are not taking Magistrate Chen with us. Please let us go."

The person who came to see the token in Shui Zhizi's hand said.

Shui Zhizi looked at the man's guilty expression and understood what was going on.

They were afraid that when they wanted to go back and report the situation to the so-called governor, the imperial court took direct action and they panicked.

"This morning, County Magistrate Chen has issued an order that only people are allowed to enter Liujia Town, but not leave. What if you are infected and go out, affecting people in other places?"

It is not certain that they will be infected with the disease in such a long time, but if they go back, they will tell the governor about the situation.
