After I got into the drama, I led the plot astray

Chen Yin glanced at Gongsun Wen, who nodded. Chen Yin then said, "There are currently 186 cows, 217 pigs, 436 sheep, and horses on the ranch..."

I quickly said, "Stop, stop, stop. I just need to know how many cows there are. Tomorrow you drive ten cows out to the grazing area. After I infect these ten cows with the smallpox virus, you drive another ten over. Drive ten over every other day until there are a hundred cows. Also, dig a big pit in the grazing area and burn the infected cows. Cows infected with smallpox cannot be eaten and must be burned. This step must be done well, otherwise not only the entire ranch, but also all the livestock in the world will suffer."

Of course Chen Yin knew how serious smallpox was. Even if a person was cured of smallpox, his face would be covered with pockmarks and he would be despised and feared by others.

Chen Yin nodded and said, "I understand. We will arrange to drive the cattle to the grazing area and dig pits tomorrow."

I thought about it and asked, "Did you send anyone to protect the two imperial doctors?"

Chen Yin said, "The palace sent twenty guards to escort them here, but they did not leave, saying they were staying to protect the two doctors, so I did not send anyone."

Since the people of Xihe thought of using the smallpox virus to harm the Dayu Kingdom, they will definitely not sit idly by and watch someone cure smallpox. As long as the news that we are planting cowpox vaccine spreads, there will be more than one person who wants to take our lives.

I said, "You should secretly send people to protect the grazing area and not allow anyone to approach. If you don't have enough manpower, you should ask His Majesty for reinforcements. This matter concerns the safety of the people of the whole country and you must not be careless."

Chen Yin looked at Gongsun Wen, who nodded slightly before saying, "Yes, I'll arrange it right away."

After Chen Yin left, a soldier came in and said he would take us to rest.

This ranch is equivalent to a royal palace. There is a very spacious and beautiful house built on the back mountain, but this is His Majesty's palace. Without His Majesty's permission, it cannot be allowed to be lived in by outsiders, so Chen Yin just arranged us in this camp.

The houses in this camp were built for the officers and soldiers who guard the ranch. The conditions are of course very ordinary. In the small wooden house of ten square meters, there is a long pit. This long pit can sleep at least seven or eight people. Although the pit is burned and warm, they won't let the four of us squeeze into one pit, right?

Gongsun Wen had the same idea as me. We looked at each other, panic in our eyes.

The soldier who led us here saw our embarrassment and said quickly: "This room is for these two brothers. Your room is still in front. Please follow me."

Gongsun Wen and I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed the soldier to another room. The soldier opened the door and said, "This is your room."

This room is the same size as the previous one, but it does not have a long pit. Instead, it has two kangs of about 1.5 meters in height. Although the two kangs are separate, they are very close to each other, less than half a meter apart. If the person sleeping next door has smelly feet, he will definitely be able to smell it clearly.

I never thought about how good the accommodation conditions on the ranch would be. It's only going to be for about a month anyway, so I'll just make do with it.

I saw Gongsun Wen frowned and refused to go in, so I walked in sideways and said, "Then I'll sleep in this room."

The soldier said with some embarrassment: "This, this is a shared room for two adults."

"What?!" Gongsun Wen and I shouted at the same time.

The soldier said with some embarrassment: "Our accommodation is already very tight, and with so many people coming here tonight, these rooms were vacated temporarily, and there are no more rooms available."

Gongsun Wen and I couldn't help but look at each other again, disgust in both of our eyes, and then we turned our heads away at the same time.

I said, "No, I don't want to share a room with him."

But I am a woman. If others knew that I had lived in the same room with a man, in this ancient feudal society, I would definitely be thrown into a pig cage.

Gongsun Wen was quite resistant at first, but after hearing what I said, he suddenly smiled coquettishly and said, "Okay, let's just stay in one room, don't embarrass them."

When the soldier heard this, he said happily, "Thank you, sir. If you two need anything, just call us."

After the soldier finished speaking, he retreated and considerately closed the door for us.

I got anxious when I saw it, and quickly chased after him and said, "Hey, no, I mean..."

Before I even got to the door, Gongsun Wen grabbed my wrist and said, "I'm not afraid of you coveting my beauty, so what are you afraid of?"

I was so annoyed that I couldn't help but say, "Stop making sarcastic remarks. You are a man and I am a woman. Who is the one who is at a disadvantage? Don't you know what's going on?"

Gongsun Wen chuckled and said, "Aren't you a eunuch? How did you become a woman?"

Chen Yin, who happened to be walking to the door, heard this. Eunuch?! Eunuch from the palace?

Chen Yin touched his chin and thought: No wonder this Master Aman looks weird, he seems to be neither male nor female, it turns out he is a eunuch!

Gongsun Wen's words made me so angry that I opened the door with a bang and saw Chen Yin tilting his head in reverie. I was about to explain, but when Chen Yin saw Gongsun Wen holding my hand, his head seemed to be struck by lightning. All of a sudden, all those inappropriate thoughts popped out of his head, and he said in a strange way, "I, I will leave first, you guys continue, you guys continue."

After Chen Yin finished speaking, he turned around and left in a hurry. Unexpectedly, he walked in such a hurry that he bumped his head against the pillar beside the door. He became dizzy and could not tell the directions. Gongsun Wen even "kindly" kicked him and threw him onto the snow.

Chen Yin staggered away, Gongsun Wen closed the door, smiled maliciously and said to me: "The night is long and the spring night is short, why don't we do something easy to kill time?"

I was so scared that I pushed Gongsun Wen away, jumped onto the kang like a monkey, pulled a quilt over me and wrapped myself tightly, and said in a trembling voice, "What do you want to do?"

Gongsun Wen waved his sleeves, then took out a book from a cloth bag on the ground, walked to the table and sat down, adjusted the wick of the oil lamp, and said, "What do you want to do? Of course I want to read to kill time, otherwise what do you think I want to do?"

Seeing his face full of success, I wanted to get up and kick him twice.

I was so angry that I kicked my boots off to the ground and said through gritted teeth: "Gongsun Wen, were you sent by His Majesty to spy on me?"

Gongsun Wen paused, then turned his head and rolled his eyes at me, saying, "Do you think I have nothing to do?"

I said unhappily, "I don't know whether you are free or not, but I see that you look like one. His Majesty is suspicious by nature, and he certainly won't believe what I said about the cowpox vaccine being able to cure smallpox, so he sent you here to keep an eye on me. No matter what, Gongsun Wen, you can't bully me, or I'll never let you go."
