Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen

Chapter 111: After a great disaster there will be a great epidemic

"Go to the town right away to buy these herbs." Doctor Chen had a pen and paper with him, so she wrote the prescription to him, then gave him a dozen taels of silver and told him to go to Xuanhu Pavilion. She also told him that if anyone in Xuanhu Pavilion wanted the prescription, he could give it to them.

Doctor Chen didn't know what it meant, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just agreed and left in a hurry.

Ye Feng's eyes flickered slightly: "Are you worried that someone in the town has been infected?"

"Uncle Niu fell ill after returning home from the town. It's obvious that he contracted the disease from the town. There have been many refugees in Jinji Town recently. They all fled from King Chen's fiefdom. A great disaster will inevitably be followed by a great epidemic." Lu Ke'er looked worried. "I estimate that many people in the town should have been infected."

Ye Feng's heart trembled.

Not only Jinji Town, but also the Chen Wang fiefdom and the entire Luzhou...

"Ke'er, you stay here and treat Niu Wa's father. I'll go find the head of the village now." Ye Feng gave instructions and left in a hurry.

Lu Ke'er looked at his anxious back and thought to herself that Ye Feng had thought it through. Their strength was weak and they might not be able to save people in other areas, but at least the village where they lived could be saved.

But she didn't know that their strength was not weak, because Ye Feng was not an ordinary person.

…………

Ye Feng walked to a deserted place and stopped.

Zuo Yi, who had been protecting him secretly, immediately showed up.

"Your Highness!" He bowed respectfully.

"Have you seen and heard everything?" Ye Feng's face was cold. "Immediately send people to Pingzhou and Chongzhou to investigate the epidemic. In addition, immediately close the passages from Pingzhou and Chongzhou to other places. And report this matter to Grandpa Emperor immediately."

"Yes."

"Also, go find Luzhou Governor Lu Yiquan. He knows what to do. You should also go to Fang Xingzheng's place."

"Yes, Your Highness..."

"What else?"

"The two guards who are to guard the house have been arranged."

"Well done. Now is the time to use people. Let's do it tomorrow. I'll ask Ke'er to go to town and we'll see what happens tomorrow."

"Yes."

Lu Ke'er didn't know that the situation was quietly changing where she couldn't see.

………………

The head of the village stood up suddenly, causing the teacup on the table to fall to the ground, with the pieces scattered all over the floor.

"Epidemic...Epidemic?" He stared at Ye Feng, his face changing drastically in shock.

As far as he could remember, when he was a child, there was an epidemic in Qi State, killing millions of people across the country, including several members of the royal family.

Some elderly people still feel terrified when talking about that disaster.

"King Chen was unjust, so the heavens punished him. The epidemic started in King Chen's fiefdom and has now spread to the surrounding areas. One case has been found in our village."

"What?" The village head felt that he was having difficulty breathing.

"Uncle village head, don't panic. Ke'er knows medicine and is currently receiving treatment. She hopes that every household will close their doors and courtyards and stay at home as much as possible, and not visit other people, in order to reduce the chance of infection. But the villagers will not listen to her, so we have to trouble Uncle village head for this matter."

"But...but if they are all locked up in their homes, it will cut off the livelihood of every household." The village head was so anxious that he walked around the room in circles. "It's okay for one or two days, but if it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid it will be uncontrollable."

Ye Feng frowned deeply.

This is indeed a problem.

"How about...wait until the government issues a notice?"

After all, if a village is quarantined without an order from above, and there is no plague, what if the superiors investigate and accuse him of exaggerating and disturbing the people?

"Uncle Village Chief, time waits for no one. I believe the court will take action soon. Uncle Village Chief, we can't wait for the government to issue an order before taking action, it will be too late. The case in the village has been confirmed, you must immediately notify the villagers to isolate at home, otherwise, once the disease spreads..."

The head hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Master Xiao, I believe you! I'll do whatever you say!"

………………

An hour later, when Doctor Chen returned to the village sweating profusely, carrying a large bag of medicinal herbs, he was accompanied by Yu Qianjing and Qi Ming from Xuanhu Pavilion.

Yu Qianjing followed Doctor Chen to Niu Wazi's house to find Lu Ke'er, and at a glance he saw the tall figure standing beside her, as graceful as a jade tree.

He is known as the most handsome man in the world.

He was known as a child prodigy when he was a child, and when he grew up, he became the dream man of all the girls in the world.

Over the years, he had only seen him a few times from a distance, but had never talked.

Now, this god-like person who could only be admired from afar was actually standing in front of him.

In fact, a few days ago, Zuo Yi had already told them that His Highness had been found. He told them not to rush to meet him, saying that His Highness was staying in a safe place. When the time came, His Highness would naturally allow them to meet him.

He was both excited and expectant.

He looked at Ye Feng and walked step by step. Closer and closer, he stopped just a few steps away from Ye Feng and was about to bow when Ye Feng turned his head to look at him.

His dark and gentle eyes flickered slightly, and Ye Feng asked with a smile: "My surname is Xiao, may I ask who you are, sir? Who are you looking for?"

Yu Qianjing was stunned.

His Highness has a photographic memory, so it is impossible for him not to remember him. Then there is only one reason: His Highness does not want to reveal his identity. He suddenly understood.

Only then did Lu Ke'er notice Yu Qianjing.

"Master Yu, why are you here?" She asked in surprise. She looked around and was even more surprised. "Didn't Gao Yutang come with you this time?"

She addressed Gao Yutang by his name, but called him "Master Yu", and the difference between them was obvious at a glance.

Yu Qianjing couldn't explain what she felt inside. It felt a little sour, a little astringent, and a little bitter...

He perked up, looked at Ye Feng again, and answered respectfully: "Hello... Mr. Xiao. My surname is Yu, my name is Qian Jing, and I am... a friend of Miss Lu."

"Ke'er's friend?" Ye Feng raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Lu Ke'er with deep eyes.

When she met his eyes, Lu Ke'er felt a little puzzled.

Qi Ming looked a little anxious: "Miss Lu, we came to you this time because we have something urgent."

"What happened?"

"These days, more and more patients come to Xuanhu Pavilion to treat coughs. Some time ago, there were only a few sporadic cases. Now there is a long queue outside the clinic every day. My cousin said that something is wrong. The patients have similar symptoms and may have contracted the disease by infecting each other. My cousin said that this is not an ordinary cold, but most likely an epidemic, but he has tried several prescriptions in a row, with little effect. It happened that today, Doctor Chen came to the clinic to get medicine, and my cousin was ecstatic when he saw it. When he learned that the prescription was written by the young lady, he asked me and Master Yu to come and discuss it with the young lady." Qi Ming explained.

"Originally, he wanted to come here himself, but he had too many patients and he couldn't get away." Yu Qianjing felt scared when he thought of the current situation in Xuanhu Pavilion.

There are simply too many patients.

"Qi Ming, help Doctor Chen boil the medicine. Boil more. Those of us who have come into contact with the patient need to drink some to prevent infection." Lu Ke'er ordered in a cold voice.
