Poison Doctor Roaming the Martial World

Chapter 259 An Epidemic Appears in Guning City

Seeing Mo Ye standing alone in the courtyard, looking extremely lonely, Hongfeng whispered to Hongyun, "When do you think the Prince will get married?"

Hongyun felt a pang of heartache as she looked at Moye's lonely figure.

"Your Highness doesn't even have a beloved woman yet; thinking about marriage is premature."

Hongfeng sighed, "Alas... I used to think that the Prince would be with Miss Yang, but now it's clear that it's impossible. What does it matter who becomes the Princess? It's just a matter of an imperial decree."

“That’s true, but the Seventh Prince already has a principal wife, and it’s really not right that our Prince is still unmarried…”

"His Majesty favors the Seventh Prince, everyone in the country knows that, what's so strange about that! The Seventh Prince has only been married for a few months, and soon he'll have another princess consort who doesn't care about rank, isn't he afraid of being overwhelmed!"

Hongyun glared at Hongfeng, "Keep your voice down!"

"What are you afraid of? It's just the two of us, no one will hear us..."

"I've been listening the whole time!"

Mo Yu's voice came from behind the two of them, and Hong Feng jumped, "Your...Your Highness..."

"Okay! Continue!"

Hongfeng knelt down with a thud, "Your Highness, I was wrong!"

"Go and accept your punishment!"

"Yes!"

Hongfeng retreated sheepishly. How did Hongdian's talkative habit get passed on to him after he left the team? The prince had caught him several times already... If he did it again, his time as captain would be over.

Hongyun was about to go down to receive his punishment when Moye stopped him, saying, "You stay here and continue to urge them to pack their things."

"Yes!"

Hongyun secretly made a face at Hongfeng, who hadn't gone far. See? The prince is very wise!

Hongfeng was indignant but helpless. Both of them had spoken, so why was only one punished?! He sulked and went to the secret hall alone.

Mo Ye was still figuring out what he needed to prepare when Hong Bei ran in to report.

"Your Highness, news has just come from the palace that the Seventh Prince will go to Guning City with you tomorrow to control the epidemic."

Mo Ye frowned slightly. Why was Mo Yu going to join in the fun? Was he afraid that Mo Ye would steal his credit?!

"His legs are his own, and no one can control him. If Father Emperor says to follow him, then so be it. As long as he doesn't interfere with my business, it's just a matter of feeding a few more people."

"Yes……"

----------

At the Anshun General's Mansion, Yang Jianwu had just returned from a stroll when she saw Hongnan riding towards her on horseback.

"Hongnan?!"

Hongnan had been worried all the way to the General's Mansion that he wouldn't be able to find anyone, but now that he had just arrived, he had run into them, and the weight on his heart had been lifted.

"Miss Yang! Your subordinate has come on the orders of the Prince!"

Seeing Hong Nan's haste, Yang Jianwu knew that Mo Ye must have sent Hong Nan from the capital to inform her of something important, so she decided not to waste any more time.

"Get up first, let's go inside and talk!"

"Yes, Miss Xie Yang!"

Hongnan followed Yang Jianwu directly to the study, where General Yang happened to be present and was quite surprised to see Hongnan.

What happened in the capital?

"Reporting to the General and Miss Yang, an epidemic has broken out in Guning City!"

"Guning City?! A plague! What exactly happened? Tell me quickly!"

General Yang was greatly alarmed. Guning City was the defensive line separating the eastern border from the barbarians. Once the defenses weakened, the barbarians would definitely take the opportunity to invade!

Yang Jianwu wasn't too surprised. In ancient times, medical care was backward, and sometimes the flu would become a "plague." The specific situation could only be determined when you arrived at the local area. It seemed that he could gain a lot of medical points again!

When people are happy, they are in a good mood! When they are in a good mood, they are more patient in their speech and actions.

"Come to Hongnan, have a snack, drink some water, and talk slowly."

"Yes, thank you, Ms. Yang!"

Hongnan had been traveling for a long time, and in order not to waste time, he only managed to sleep once every two days. He also ate whatever was available, and after running two fast horses to death, he was now truly starving and thirsty.

I felt so grateful to Yang Jianwu. Oh, Miss Yang is beautiful, kind-hearted and considerate!

After eating a few pastries and drinking two cups of tea, he began to recount the epidemic in Guning City.

Guning City, as a border town between Dongli and the barbarians, occasionally sees barbarians coming to barter for goods.

Half a month ago, the manager of Fumanlou restaurant received several roe deer sent by barbarians. He originally intended to make some signature dishes to sell, but the customers who ate the roe deer meat all developed symptoms such as fever, muscle pain, headache, general weakness, and diarrhea. Within a few days, many people began to have difficulty breathing, and many have already died!

Anyone who comes into contact with the patient will be infected. Local officials, fearing it would cause panic, have placed the patient in centralized treatment and separated them from healthy individuals.

Even with contact avoided, many healthy people are still getting sick...

The imperial court has already dispatched imperial physicians, and Prince Ning, who has experience in eliminating epidemics in Lucheng, has also been entrusted with this important task.

"His Highness instructed me to tell Miss Yang that in order to prevent the imperial physicians from being unable to control the epidemic, he would be very grateful if Miss Yang could make a trip there, as it concerns the safety of the entire Dongli!"

General Yang immediately made the decision, "Go, Wu'er, pack up now, the sooner the better, there can be no trouble in Guning City!"
