Chapter 128 I also want to go to the palace...
Soon after, Pei Yunjing appeared at the tent entrance. He calmly and methodically directed everyone to carefully carry boxes filled with mosquito repellent and anti-itch sprays and mosquito coils out of the room.
These supplies are undoubtedly a timely help for the people of Guangling who are suffering from malaria.
In this busy scene, a small figure, like a forest sprite, closely followed Pei Yunjing's steps.
That was Nian Nian. Her eyes sparkled with curiosity and excitement, her steps were light, and her face was filled with an innocent smile.
Her arrival seemed to bring a bright touch to this solemn scene.
The moment He Qiang saw Niannian, his originally serious face instantly relaxed, revealing a smile as bright as a flower blooming in spring.
He rushed forward impatiently, opened his arms, and hugged Niannian tightly, then happily lifted her up.
His voice was full of joy: "Oh my, my little goddess, what brings you here again? These amazing treasures must have been brought by you!"
He Qiang himself couldn't explain why he liked this innocent and carefree little girl so much;
Her appearance always filled him with overwhelming joy, as if she were an angel descended to earth, bringing hope and happiness.
Niannian, held aloft by He Qiang, giggled, her clear and melodious laughter echoing in the air like silver bells.
Her rosy cheeks looked like a ripe apple, making you want to kiss her.
Niannian replied sweetly, "Uncle He Qiang, I brought all of these, and Uncle Nanxing is back too!"
Just then, a steady footstep sound came, and Pei Nanxing walked quickly to He Qiang's side with a sullen face.
Without saying a word, he reached out and took Niannian from He Qiang's hands, gently pulling her into his warm embrace.
His tone carried a hint of seriousness and dissatisfaction:
"General He, this is not the time to tease children. These mosquito repellent sprays need to be distributed to the anxious people as soon as possible. You need to speed things up!"
Although Pei Nanxing's voice was gentle, the sense of urgency in it was clearly visible.
He Qiang shook his head helplessly, a hint of resentment on his face, but in the end he could only turn and leave with dissatisfaction.
With heavy steps, he silently returned to his original position and resumed helping to move the heavy cardboard boxes.
Time flies by so quickly, it seems like only a blink of an eye, and the time it takes for an incense stick to burn is gone in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, the streets and alleys of the capital city are bustling with people and teeming with activity.
People gathered in small groups around the makeshift distribution points, eagerly waiting to receive these novel and unprecedented items.
Standing in the center of the crowd, Pei Yunjing was explaining the uses and effects of these items with great enthusiasm.
His voice was clear and loud, and even in a noisy environment, it could be accurately heard by everyone.
The people listened intently to his words, their eyes sparkling with curiosity and anticipation.
All that could be heard were the whispers and discussions among the surrounding people.
Someone exclaimed excitedly, "Have you heard? Our sixth prince has come up with quite a few new and interesting things this time!"
Another person chimed in, "You bet! It's called something like a mosquito repellent and anti-itch spray. That name sounds pretty unusual. I've never even heard of it before!"
Just then, someone else chimed in: "Oh dear! The Sixth Prince said that the malaria we have is transmitted by mosquitoes, so we must take precautions against mosquitoes!"
However, some people remained skeptical, muttering:
"That's strange, really. Where would so many mosquitoes come from in Beijing at this time of year?"
………………
Although some people were initially skeptical, their strong curiosity eventually prevailed, driving them to want to try it for themselves.
So they all followed Pei Yunjing's example, carefully extending their index fingers, gently pressing the nozzle of the spray bottle, and spraying it lightly onto the areas where they had been bitten by mosquitoes.
In an instant, something amazing happened—the unbearable itching sensation vanished without a trace, just like ice and snow meeting the warm sun.
Their faces showed surprise and relief, and they all nodded in approval.
The news spread like wildfire throughout the capital.
More and more people are beginning to believe that these miraculous items can truly help them get rid of the torment of malaria.
They lined up to receive the supplies, exchanging their experiences and creating a lively scene.
The respect and gratitude people felt for the Sixth Prince, Pei Yunjing, grew stronger day by day.
They knew that if the Sixth Prince hadn't intervened personally, they might still be suffering from mosquito bites and disease.
Pei Yunjing not only brought supplies, but also hope and care, which made him even more respected by the people.
Pei Yunjing stood aside, looking at the satisfied smiles of the people, and felt a sense of relief in his heart.
He knew that his efforts had not been in vain; he was able to do practical things for the people, which was his greatest honor as a prince.
Under Pei Nanxing's protection, Niannian curiously observed everything around her.
Despite her young age, her keen senses are in no way inferior to those of an adult.
At this moment, that tender little face was like a flower blooming in spring, with a bright smile spreading freely.
Deep in her little heart, she was silently thinking: I must do my best to help more people in need in the future!
On the other side, He Qiang led the other soldiers to speed up the distribution of the supplies they had.
Because they know that even a minute or a second faster could save these people in distress from suffering.
In this fierce race against time, each of them is undoubtedly Pei Yunjing's most solid and reliable support.
With everyone working together, we strive towards the goal of ensuring peace and tranquility in the capital and the health of its people.
Seeing this scene, Pei Yunjing turned around, gazed tenderly at Nian Nian, and softly instructed her:
"After we're done here, I'll personally escort you back to the camp, okay, Niannian? Right now, I need to head to the palace to bring Xiao Ba back!"
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Nian Nian immediately began shaking her little head vigorously, just like a constantly swaying rattle, while urgently shouting:
"No! I don't want to go back, Brother Yun Jing! I really want to go and see the palace too!"
