Chapter 995: Chapter 996 Songlan Chapter 995: Chapter 996 Songlan Seeing the people kneeling and sincerely kowtowing below the city tower, Xiao Changyi declared resoundingly, “Rest assured, everyone, I will do my utmost.”
“Thank you, Prince! Thank you, Prince!” The people cried out in unison as they thanked him.
Xiao Changyi’s arrival gave them a leader to rely on and rekindled their hope, even though it was faint. They still chose to believe in Prince Yi, believing that he could help them survive and regain a peaceful life.
Once, Xiyun Kingdom was invaded by a foreign country, and there was no peace within the kingdom. It was Xiao Changyi who repelled the foreign invaders and restored peace to Xiyun Kingdom, freeing them from living daily in fear and dread of the country’s ruin. Now, they hoped and firmly believed that Xiao Changyi could once again keep them from living in daily fear and allow them to regain a peaceful life.
An Jing silently observed the profile of her husband, who was watching the citizens below. His profile was stern and resolute, like a towering mountain, inspiring trust and admiration.
And she was proud to have such a husband!
After comforting the citizens who wanted to leave the city, An Jing and Xiao Changyi walked toward the palace.
On the way back to the palace, An Jing and Xiao Changyi did not utter a word, each walking quietly, both weighed down by a solemn, oppressive mood.
This place now really made it impossible to feel joyful.
While walking back to the palace with Xiao Changyi, An Jing thought about how modern people would deal with an epidemic.
In fact, she had been thinking about this on the journey to Nan Shen. But the conditions and technological level here were limited, and since she wasn’t dically trained, she didn’t know how to treat an epidemic, leaving her at a complete loss.
In the palace, a room had already been arranged for them.
Once An Jing and Xiao Changyi were alone in the room assigned to them, without any outsiders present, An Jing said, “Husband, in my previous world, there was sothing called Isatis root. It has the effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, cooling blood, and relieving sore throats, and is commonly used for epidemics, fever, and throat pain. If we had Isatis root here, perhaps we could control the epidemic to so extent.”
“Isatis root?” Xiao Changyi frowned, pondered, and after a while, shook his head and said, “I’ve never heard of it.”
An Jing replied, “I also haven’t heard about Isatis root here, but I think it should exist, just undiscovered, or perhaps it is known by another na.”
Xiao Changyi said, “What does it look like? Tell , and we can send people to search for it.”
“It’s the root of Songlan… Oh!” An Jing suddenly slapped her head, “Songlan! That’s it! Because it looks very similar to a type of cabbage, but it’s distinctly different. The root is Isatis root, and its leaves can be extracted to make a dye to turn fabrics blue.”
Songlan referred to a family of cabbage-like vegetables in ancient language.
Here, Songlan ant the sa thing, and with An Jing’s description, Xiao Changyi got so idea of what Songlan might look like.
An Jing continued, “In my original world, anciently Songlan was initially used as a dye, and only later was it used dicinally. Maybe it is the sa here.”
At that mont, An Jing felt fortunate that she had thoroughly learned about Isatis root when there had been an epidemic in the modern world.
“Husband, let’s go to the dye workshop and ask how they obtain their blue dye; perhaps it really is extracted from the leaves of Songlan.”
