May 20, the 20th year of Tai'an, was the third day after the governor's Yamen issued an order to close the city under martial law.
In Yuanyang City, within these three days, mutation events did occur. There were more than thirty cases in total, affecting hundreds of people.
It seems that there are a lot of mutation events, but compared with the population of 100,000 in Yuanyang City, this seems insignificant.
Fortunately, although there were many mutation events, with the cooperation of the Longyou dignitaries, every mutation was controlled in time.
There are a total of thirty-six squares in Yuanyang City, and there are separate walls between each square, which brings natural good conditions for isolating viruses.
Under the martial law, the doors between the houses were closed tightly, and households sat together to protect each other, which temporarily stabilized the situation.
On the outermost wall of the palace, Zhao Yanxun walked on the wall with the palace officials and the general banners of hundreds of households in the Guard Department.
Even within the palace, three mutations occurred, killing sixteen people in total.
The so-called loss means that these people will definitely die.
But some of them are still alive, and Zhao Yanxun will wait until they are completely mutated before harvesting experience points.
Standing on the "city wall", looking at the wall that was still being built overtime, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "Can it be all completed today?"
Worker Huang Zhongchang hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and said: "Your Majesty... we will finish the work within today!"
After nodding, Zhao Yanxun waved for him to leave.
Building a high wall is indeed a big project. The builders were able to complete this step within three days, which is already very fast.
But Zhao Yanxun still had to urge him to complete the construction of the palace earlier so that it would be truly safe.
Although all mutations in Yuanyang Mansion have been suppressed, as long as there is a flaw in one place, the zombie virus may break out in the city.
This is no joke. The speed of virus transmission is exponential. It is not impossible for thousands of people to be infected within a day.
There are thousands of zombies. Even if they do their duty and stop infecting other people, with the limited manpower of the governor and the government, they are simply unable to suppress them.
In addition to the people in the palace, even though Zhao Yanxun is powerful, he will only die of exhaustion if he is caught in the tide of corpses.
Turning around and looking at the civil and military officials behind him, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "I just took you to inspect the palace and found many problems during the process!"
Upon hearing this, all the officials bowed down to listen to the instructions.
"Internal and external treasury must ensure moisture-proof, fire-proof, insect-proof..."
Zhao Yanxun emphasized that Yu Chang would listen carefully and not dare to neglect at all.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yanxun called the names of various offices in the palace and gave instructions to them one by one.
The content includes the internal security of the palace, the creation of weapons and armor, food control and distribution, and the mutation inspection mechanism...
After these words, everyone has a clear goal. Under the guidance of Zhao Yanxun's thoughts, they will be able to firmly maintain the security of the palace.
"You all must keep what I said just now in mind and draw inferences from one instance to another!" Zhao Yanxun glanced at the crowd and said.
"Ministers, please remember this!" all ministers and workers said.
"Except for the two chief historians, everyone else should step aside and go on errands!"
Everyone saluted again and then left one by one.
After a temporary reconciliation with the governor's Yamen, Zhou Chengping and Guan Hetai were released, and they were in charge of the palace for the past two days.
"Your Highness, we didn't think carefully, so please punish me!"
I just went on a tour and found too many problems, and Zhou Chengping and I share some responsibility.
However, no one has ever experienced a zombie outbreak before, so it is normal to have things that cannot be considered.
After Zhao Yanxun signaled the two of them to excuse themselves, he said: "It doesn't matter... just think carefully from now on!"
Looking at the city wall in the distance, Zhao Yanxun asked slowly: "Monsters have appeared outside the city. It seems that the monster outbreak in Longyou is irreversible!"
This is a very cruel reality, which means that many good things in the world will be destroyed along with this disaster.
Lin Quan, who was following Zhao Yanxun, said: "Your Majesty, the news came back this morning. Traces of monsters have been found outside the city walls in the southeast, northwest and northwest!"
Nodding, Zhao Yanxun said in a deep voice: "Now we just found traces. In a few days...it might be monsters sieging the city!"
In fact, in addition to the threat of the zombies themselves, the supply of food rations for nearly 100,000 people in the city is also a troublesome matter.
In ten days and a half at most, the poorer families will run out of food, and by then there will be chaos in the city.
"I don't know how long it will take for such a catastrophe to be overthrown. I am thinking... about recruiting a group of slaves into the palace, and recruiting a group of craftsmen and doctors into the palace. What do the two chief ministers think?"
The effect of recruiting craftsmen and doctors into the palace is visible, but what is the use of recruiting slaves? Do you think there are too few people eating in the palace?
"Your Highness, there are so many servants in the palace now, it seems there is no need to recruit any more!" Zhou Chengping bowed.
"You also know that there are many guards and craftsmen in the palace, and there are many unmarried people. These problems must be solved, so that people's hearts can be stable... What do you think?"
Zhao Yanxun's words were full of humanistic care, leaving Zhou Chengping and Zhou Chengping speechless.
"Letting these people into the palace will at least protect them...that's good!" Guan Hetai nodded.
Zhou Chengping also nodded. The safety of the people outside was uncertain, and now every one could be saved.
"You must continue to keep an eye on all matters within the palace and make sure no mistakes are made..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Yanxun said in a particularly solemn tone: "If this catastrophe causes China to perish...if we can survive, we may be the only light of civilization!"
Although this was the first time Zhou and Guan had heard the word civilization, they could understand its profound connotation at this moment, and they immediately felt that they had a heavier responsibility on their shoulders.
What they did was not only to preserve their own lives, but also to preserve the flame of human civilization.
After dismissing Zhou Guan and others, Zhao Yanxun ordered Lin Quan to inform the guards that he would leave the palace in the afternoon.
He hasn't been outside for three days. Although it sounds like the overall prevention and control is in place, Zhao Yanxun still wants to go out and take a look.
Bureaucrats in this era are very good at writing paper articles, and deceiving superiors and concealing subordinates is a basic operation. I always feel uneasy if I don't look at Zhao Yanxun.
Lin Quan went to arrange the delivery of the order, while Zhao Yanxun himself walked down the high wall. Next, he was going to Xue Baoyun's place to take a nap. He didn't get a good rest at Huang Rongrong's place last night.
But when he entered from the east door of the palace and walked outside the gate of Yuqiong Garden, he met Lin Jingyu and two maids.
Lin Jingyu usually stayed in the room. When she appeared here at this time, she was obviously waiting for Zhao Yanxun.
"Jingyu, why are you here?" Zhao Yanxun stepped forward and said.
Lin Jingyu raised her head, bit her lip, and stopped talking.
Seeing the signs, Zhao Yanxun took another step forward, only half a step away from Lin Jingyu.
"Could it be that you have some grievance?"
Zhao Yanxun is still very patient with his woman.
"Your Majesty, I would like to..."
Under Zhao Yanxun's gentle gaze, Lin Jingyu mustered up the courage to say: "I want to ask the prince for something!"
With Lin Jingyu's character, it is rare for her to be able to ask for help.
"you say!"
"My maid, Yun'er, was taken away by the guards this morning. She was found to have scratches on her hands..."
After hearing this, Zhao Yanxun understood what was going on.
"I can testify that the injury on Yun'er's arm was scratched by my cat. Please take a closer look!" Lin Jingyu said eagerly.
Although Yun'er is a maid, she has been her playmate since childhood. She is a caring person that is rare in this foreign land, so Lin Jingyu intercedes for her.
