Xue Wenyu nodded again. It was true. It was because he was not sure whether the increasing number of deaths in Yudong were caused by acute illness or deliberate poisoning.

"So, don't just blame yourself and take the blame on yourself. No one thought there was an epidemic at the time, and no one expected it to be so serious. If you knew, you would definitely bring me here.

In one's lifetime, one will encounter many things, many regrettable things, and irreversible weaknesses.

HB

It's not that I feel sorry for you, I'm just saying things against my will to comfort you.

Think about it, if you insist that such serious consequences are caused by you, you will feel guilty and blame yourself.

But have you ever thought about this, if this happens, will Brother Hui also feel guilty? And what about my grandfather, and the other people who teamed up with you to hide it from me? "Mu Yingbao said this, stretched out his hand and put it on his abdomen.

"And him, our child, should he also blame himself and feel guilty for this incident? Because you also said that if I wasn't pregnant, you wouldn't have kept it from me.

There are also those doctors in Yudong who should blame themselves. As doctors, they have been practicing medicine for most of their lives but they didn't know the cause of death of these people.

Also, the family of the first deceased should also blame themselves. If it wasn't for the fact that their family saw the half-dead mice and thought of cutting off their whiskers to make pens, maybe he wouldn't have been infected with the plague.

If he hadn't died, good neighbors and relatives would not have come to visit, attend the funeral, or help, and as a result, they would have contracted the disease and died.

However, the first person to die was also a victim. If he had known in advance that his actions would cause such a tragic outcome for Yudong City,

As a result, I think, even if a pen made of mouse whiskers could be sold for thousands of dollars, he would not do that.

Yes, it is undeniable that your decision at that time was closely related to the serious consequences here.

You can regret, feel guilty, and blame yourself, because this is a normal reaction of a person with a conscience. However, you cannot spend the rest of your life immersed in this guilt and self-blame. That would be meaningless except to torture yourself. What is meaningful is to remember the lesson of this time and to do something for those who are still alive.

Our Yan State is so big and has so many people. Now that the plague has broken out in Yudong, no one can guarantee when and where it will break out again.

Or perhaps, another epidemic occurred, one that had never occurred in history and could not be referenced or verified.

So, next, we still have a lot to do.

Brother Yu, have I said so much, is it useful to you?" Mu Yingbao asked, looking into his eyes.

To be honest, she was not sure she could enlighten him and resolve his worries this time.

After all, his decision at that time really caused bad consequences.

After waiting for a while, seeing that he didn't say anything, Mu Yingbao continued, "Look at it from another angle. If you hadn't stared at me and refused to let go, I wouldn't have become your wife. Now, she may not be somewhere in Yan State. It's possible that she has gone to another country.

Tears of Kindness

If that were the case, I wouldn't know about what happened to Yudong this time. By the time I knew about it, even if I wanted to rush over, maybe everything would be irreversible.

Not to mention that the epidemic spread to the entire Yan State and destroyed the country.

The best outcome is that tens of thousands of people in Yudong will be destroyed in accordance with Master Lu's last resort to protect the people in other towns of Yan State."

"If you put it that way, then not only am I not a sinner, but I've become a meritorious person?" Xue Wenyu could no longer remain silent.

It wasn't because of her earnest advice that I finally let it go. Rather, it was because I felt warmed by seeing how worried and distressed she was about me.

He knew her temper very well.

But she did not blame him, instead she tried every possible way to enlighten him. Xue Wenyu's heart warmed up, and the big stone that was pressing on his heart was suddenly removed. "Don't worry, I understand." Xue Wenyu said softly, and stretched out his hand to hug her. Mu Yingbao knew that he would not really let it go because of what she said. But at least he would not be so stubborn, and there would be a day when he would let go of this heavy burden.

If he can't let go, it doesn't matter, she will always be by his side.

But, to be honest, if she had not clearly sensed his inner remorse and guilt when she came here this time, she would definitely not have given up accusing him, criticizing him, complaining about him, and blaming him.

Mu Yingbao put her arms around his waist and gently rubbed his back. The two of them hugged each other quietly and didn't even notice that the carriage had stopped.

Outside, Tu Zi, the driver, and Nan Zhu, who came over, Lin Chuan and others waited for a long time but did not see the master coming out. They looked at Tu Zi anxiously, asking with their eyes what was going on?

Tuzi shrugged and spread his hands, indicating that he didn't know either.

"Chang, maybe Madam was too tired and fell asleep." Nanzhu reminded in a low voice, and the others quietly stepped back.

Nanzhu thought about it and whispered to Lin Chuan to get some ice and put it under the car.

It's really not a luxury or waste. There is actually enough ice. If we don't use it this way, it will melt anyway.

The group of people who came with the lady were very quiet and did their work quietly.

A truckload of ice arrived yesterday, and it hasn't melted yet, and another truckload just arrived. Truckloads of fresh ingredients are also being delivered here continuously.

In the temporary yamen tent not far away, Prefect Qian was worried about the lack of medicinal herbs, food and other supplies.

A yamen runner came into the tent excitedly, "Sir, sir, the herbs have arrived, five carts of them!" The prefect looked up in disbelief, "Hen, the herbs have arrived? Five carts? Didn't Xiao Wuzi and his men set out less than an hour ago?"

"Your Excellency, these are not our people. They were brought here by Lady Yipin's people. They said not to worry, as more herbs will be delivered soon." The bailiff said this excitedly while gesticulating.

"Really? That's great, that's great. But, it won't be enough if we only have herbs without other materials. There are tens of thousands of civilians and 18,000 soldiers." Lord Qian was happy for a moment, but then he became worried again.

There is food stored in the city, but at this rate of consumption, it won't last much longer, and we can't let the people fill their stomachs with medicinal soup!

"Sir, sir, thirty carts of grain, one cart of salt, and ten carts of cloth and robes have just arrived. The Duke's men asked you where they are." Another yamen runner ran in, sweating profusely.

When Prefect Qian heard this, he stood up quickly, walked to Master Lu, stretched out his hand and hit him, causing the master to hiss in pain.

"Does it hurt?" asked the prefect. Master Lu rubbed his arm and nodded with a grin. It should have been purple, how could it not hurt?

"It's right that it hurts. I'm not dreaming. God will not abandon Yudong." Prefect Qian raised his head and shouted excitedly with his hands raised.

When Prefect Qian heard this, he stood up quickly, walked to Master Lu, stretched out his hand and hit him, causing the master to hiss in pain.

"Does it hurt?" asked Prefect Yue.

Master Lu rubbed his arm that was being held, grinned and nodded, it should have turned purple, it wouldn't hurt for long.

"It's right that it hurts. I'm not dreaming. God will not abandon Yudong." Prefect Qian raised his head and shouted excitedly with his hands raised.

Suddenly, Prefect Qian stopped and asked the yamen runner who came later, "Who are the people who transported the grain, salt, clothes, and cloth? Whose people are they? Wait, let me guess, you just said that the Duke's people asked where to put them?

Also, with this amount of food, could it be that the people were sent by His Majesty from the capital...
