The widow becomes a fairy, and the time-traveling girl counterattacks and becomes the queen

Seeing Wang Xinyao busy in an orderly manner, Zhou Yunxi made a prompt decision and assigned the imperial physician he brought to her. Luo Qing also arranged for the guards to work together to assist in the distribution of the medicine.

It was late at night and the county government office was crowded with people. The conditions of those who had received the medicine had basically improved, and those who had been treated were also out of danger!

However, Nanhu County is vast, with a total population of about 180,000. The number of people gathered at the gate of the county government office is just a drop in the ocean!

At this time, a guard arrived to report the situation of the plague: "Your Excellency, there were three thousand people gathered at the county government gate, all of whom have been infected. Two hundred have unfortunately passed away. However, since Miss Wang's arrival, all the infected have recovered and are no longer in danger of death!"

When Luo Qing and Zhou Yunxi heard the news, they finally felt relieved and a little relieved.

Since the medicine brought by Miss Wang is so effective, there is a glimmer of hope for this plague!

After all the people were treated, Wang Xinyao, Luo Qing, Ouyang Ping, Zhou Yunxi and others all dragged their exhausted bodies to the inner hall of the county government office.

"Thank you, Miss Wang, for your generosity!" Luo Qing bowed deeply, cupped his hands, and asked anxiously, "Miss Wang, is there any hope that the infected people today will recover? Will the situation improve going forward?"

"As far as the current situation in Xiejia Village is concerned, the medicine I provide is definitely effective, and there is great hope for recovery!" Wang Xinyao replied.

Then, her expression grew serious. "The current situation is truly grim. The number of infections is likely to continue to rise, and the herbs we have are running low."

"What should we do then?" Zhou Yunxi asked anxiously.

Wang Xinyao pondered for a moment, then added, "We urgently need more medicinal herbs, but our top priority is to curb the spread of the epidemic. I suggest that we first have every household close their doors and strengthen protective measures in the county."

"Okay! I'll send more people to do it immediately." Luo Qing responded without hesitation.

"Lord Zhou, don't worry about the medicinal herbs. Before I came, I sent a guard team to collect them on the mountain. I expect someone to deliver them tomorrow morning!" Wang Xinyao said again.

"Miss Wang is really thoughtful. I admire her very much. On behalf of the people of Nanhu County, I would like to thank Miss Wang for her generosity!" After saying that, Zhou Yunxi bowed and saluted!

"Master Zhou, you're too kind!" Wang Xinyao had just finished speaking when she ordered, "There's still some medicine left outside. Everyone present should go and have a bowl!"

Ouyang Ping quickly stood up and said, "Sister Wang, we don't need it. Let's save the medicine for those who are already infected! We are still healthy!"

"Yes, Miss Wang, medicinal herbs are already scarce and should be left to those in urgent need!" Luo Qing echoed!

Zhou Yunxi and the officials he brought with him all declined. Perhaps in their eyes, the people always come first.

Such noble character made Wang Xinyao look at them with new eyes! What is a good official who speaks for the people? They are it!

Because of the incident between Zhao Haoxuan and Chen Jingyuan, Wang Xinyao had more or less some aversion to these ancient officials, especially those in high positions.

However, today, she has a new understanding. Perhaps there is a righteous army in every era.

Those who could come to this plague land were probably warriors who had put their own lives at risk! This really made Wang Xinyao feel relieved!

So, she continued, "Miss Ouyang, everyone, the subsequent epidemic prevention and control depends entirely on your support, so none of you must be infected. Only in this way can more people be treated! Do you understand this principle?"

"Yes, Miss Wang is right. It was I who was not considerate enough. I will arrange for everyone to receive a dose of medicine right away. Thank you, Miss Wang!" Zhou Yunxi thanked again.

Zhou Yunxi knew Wang Xinyao's identity, but with so many people around, it was not convenient for him to ask her about the prince.

Everyone bowed respectfully to Wang Xinyao. In their opinion, this trip to Nanhu County was undoubtedly a life-or-death journey. Now, judging from the current situation, they would definitely be able to return to the capital alive. In this case, Wang Xinyao was undoubtedly their savior.

Wang Xinyao gently waved her hand and continued, "While I was rescuing the patient just now, I told the imperial physicians present the formula and the process for boiling the medicine. Tomorrow morning, once the herbs arrive, everyone must prepare the medicine properly and then distribute it door to door to every infected person!"

Everyone nodded in agreement and decided to act separately tomorrow.

"The top priority right now is to control the spread of the epidemic. The protection team must be deployed. The plague must force every household to self-isolate and avoid moving around as much as possible." Wang Xinyao emphasized again with concern!

Then, Wang Xinyao frowned again, and said worriedly, "But if this happens, the people's daily necessities will become a huge problem!"

Her rice has not yet been planted, and the remaining grain she has is very little, which is only enough to cover the expenses of Xiejia Village!

Luo Qing hurriedly said, "Miss Wang, please rest assured. The Emperor has made all the necessary arrangements. I believe the supplies will arrive soon."

Wang Xinyao nodded slightly. "It's late today, and everyone is exhausted. Let's go and rest. Tomorrow we will work together and fight together. We will definitely defeat this plague!"

At daybreak, everyone who had taken a short rest woke up. At this time, the convoy led by Xie Xiaogang had already delivered the herbs.

Everyone immediately got busy, preparing the herbs according to the method Wang Xinyao had given.

At the same time, the protection team also began to take action, going door to door to publicize epidemic prevention knowledge and urging villagers to self-isolate.

Wang Xinyao, Hu Wei and others came to the salt field with the boiled herbs!

Because there were so many people at the salt field, the situation here was no better than what happened at the gate of the county government office last night. Those with weak constitutions had already died. By the time Wang Xinyao and others arrived, 20 workers at the salt field had already died.

Among those who died, 15 were beggars. They had just started to live a good life when they were ruthlessly killed by the plague!

Wang Xinyao suppressed her grief and asked Hu Wei and others to distribute the herbs while she treated the seriously ill patients.

Most of these people were physically weak and in poor mental state. Wang Xinyao constantly comforted them and told them to persevere.

The plague was too severe. Although she had a prescription, it could not keep up with the speed of its spread. Suddenly, she felt a deep sense of helplessness, as if she had returned to the year when the new coronavirus was the most serious in the 21st century.
