The girl traveled through another world and forced the prince to take the imperial examination

Su Qingyan was also aware of this matter, but she knew who it was, but she couldn't say it.

That day, the Ning family came to apologize, which was expected. But the person who came was Ning Haochen, the third son of the Ning family.

Su Qingyan recognized this person.

Fang Xuyao ​​led a group of officials and just stepped out of the city gate when he saw the Sima of Jiangzhou rushing towards him like a gust of wind.

"Sir, sir, someone has sent an expedited letter from Yongkang County."

Fang Xuyao ​​hurriedly pulled the reins and asked, "Where's the person? Where is he?"

He dodged to the side, and a man in black armor stood behind him: "I am the prince's personal guard, and I have been ordered to deliver a letter to the governor."

The black-armored guard dismounted and respectfully presented a letter to Fang Xuyao. Fang Xuyao ​​didn't dare to be negligent and quickly dismounted, accepting the letter with great respect. It was indeed a letter from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and Fang Xuyao's heart finally settled.

The letter instructed him to gather all the herbs within two days and deliver them to Meng Yun in Yongkang County. It also contained a prescription, which undoubtedly indicated that His Royal Highness had successfully developed an effective formula.

Fang Xuyao ​​immediately led his men back to the city and redeployed people to prepare medicinal materials.

"You must prepare the medicine according to this prescription quickly. I will wait here."

The clerks in the yamen took action upon hearing the news, while Fang Xuyao ​​paced anxiously in the study like an ant on hot pan.

Soon a servant returned with a list of herbs: "Sir, we have searched all over Jiangzhou City, but we can't find three herbs, especially Lanshi."

Fang Xuyao ​​shouted angrily, "Nonsense! How could Jiangzhou, a city as huge as this, not even have a few herbs?"

The servant said in a low voice, "Sir, the doctor said these herbs are rarely used, and the quantity we need is too large to be gathered together!"

Fang Xuyao ​​was furious: "Why don't you go look somewhere else quickly? We only have two days."

At this time, an aide named Zhang came in and said, "Sir, I'm afraid we don't have enough time."

Fang Xuyao ​​asked as soon as he saw the person coming, "What should we do?"

Zhang Muliao said: "Why not ask the Ning family to help."

Fang Xuyao ​​clapped his hands, waking up as if from a dream: "How could I forget about the Ning family! Quick, go and invite the head of the Ning family."

The Ning family is the largest medicinal material dealer in Jiangzhou, and time is running out so they can only ask Ning Dechang for help.

Ning Dechang arrived at the government office quickly and was personally invited to the study by Fang Xuyao. He left in a hurry in less than half an hour.

Before dark, Ning Dechang had gathered all the medicinal materials for the prescription and personally delivered them to the government office. Fang Xuyao ​​valued the Ning family and Ning Dechang even more.

Not daring to delay, Fang Xuyao ​​immediately sent someone to Yongkang County to deliver the medicine.

Fang Xuyao ​​suddenly made a decision and asked Ning Dechang to go with him to Daxing Town, Yongkang County tomorrow.

After returning home, Ning Dechang first went to Wanfu Hall to see the old lady, who had just returned from Ning Haokun's courtyard. The old lady had been taking care of Ning Haokun personally during the past few days of his injury.

Ning Dechang looked at the old lady who was so tired that she didn't even want to eat, and felt angry. He advised: "Mom! Kun'er is not a child anymore. He has a wife and concubines. Why do you have to serve him yourself?"

"I'm happy to do that. None of you parents would feel bad for your sons, so why should I feel bad for my grandson? He's my only grandson!"

After saying that, she burst into tears again, and Ning Dechang frowned and felt a headache. He, Ning Dechang, had three sons, but this was the only grandson in his heart. Could it be that the other two sons were not her grandsons?

Alas! He left Wanfu Hall exhausted.

In the evening, Ning Dechang met Ning Haochen in the study.

He informed Ning Haochen about the epidemic in Yongkang County and mentioned a prominent nobleman in Daxing Town, Yongkang County.

Ning Dechang felt this was an opportunity: "Haochen, Dad wants to take you to Yongkang, what do you think?"

After Ning Dechang finished speaking, he waited for a long time but saw no reply from Ning Haochen. He looked up and found that Ning Haochen was in a daze, as if he was frozen.

"Haochen, Haochen..."

Ning Dechang called him several times before Ning Haochen came back to his senses: "What's the matter?"

Ning Dechang didn't blame him: "What are you thinking about? Can you tell me?"

Ning Haochen frowned and said, "Jin Yuhe Embroidery Workshop is also from Daxing Town, Yongkang County. Is this just a coincidence?"

"Jin Yuhe Embroidery Shop?" Ning Dechang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. His son had always been cautious, but this time he was probably being too cautious. "Your Highness the Crown Prince wouldn't open an embroidery shop just for a few bucks."

Ning Haochen didn't think so. This was definitely not a coincidence. If he hadn't known about the epidemic, he wouldn't have thought about it, but Jin Yuhe Embroidery Workshop had been acting strangely lately.

First, they stopped releasing new products and instead started selling a mysterious thing called a mask, claiming it could keep warm and prevent disease.

Nowadays, this mask is all the rage in Jiangzhou Prefecture. Many noble women like to wear it when they go out, just to add a touch of mystery. Gradually, girls from ordinary families also like to wear it, and later even students in academies wear masks when they go out.

What's even stranger recently is that Ning Haochen has discovered that Jin Yuhe Embroidery Workshop is secretly purchasing large quantities of medicinal materials.

"Whether they are the prince's men or not, I will immediately send someone to check with the prescription and we will know."

He shouted loudly: "Han Xing!"

The door opened and a person walked in quietly.

Ning Haochen handed him a prescription and asked him to check whether the herbs Jin Yuhe had purchased were the same.

Ning Dechang did not stop him. He also wanted to know. If it was true, then things would become difficult.

Only two sticks of incense had passed before Han Xing came back. The herbs Jin Yuhe had purchased were exactly the same as the prescription.

The father and son looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

At the same time, the night was as dark as ink, and everything was silent outside the quiet Yongkang County.

A group of ghostly men in black, like ghosts in the dark night, quietly lurked outside the city.

One of the tall men roared angrily, "Didn't they say there were countless disaster victims gathered outside the city? Why is there not a single person here?"

Someone stepped forward tremblingly and said, "Commander Lu, I did see many disaster victims here the other day."

"The day before yesterday? Where is he now?" The man's voice became increasingly sharp.

Seeing no one answering him, the man's anger surged, and he growled, "Why don't you go check what's going on?"

"Yes." Everyone scattered like frightened birds and beasts.

All the disaster victims outside Yongkang County were relocated to Donghu Village.

Meng Yun brought the yamen runners from Yongkang County and cordoned off an area in the center of Donghu Village. They set up an epidemic resettlement area, placed the patients inside, and kept those who were not sick outside the resettlement area.

People outside can move freely, but they cannot leave the village because they are suspected patients.

When the nearby villages heard that the imperial court was finally going to control the plague, they all sent their patients to Donghu Village.

Meng Yun also asked the yamen runners to go to each village to notify the villagers to stay at home and not move around casually, and to wear masks when going out. This is the most effective way to prevent infection.
