The epidemic in the city was finally under control. With the medicine sent by Xu Ji, the disaster relief envoy, Ye Zhen stored the spiritual spring water in a porcelain bottle in advance every night. The next day, she boiled a large pot of medicinal soup and let all the patients drink it. Probably because of the spiritual spring water, the fever of the patients in the city quickly subsided. Doctor Qi had recovered and could now help treat other patients in the medical bureau.
As more and more people recovered, Ye Zhen discovered another thing.
The amount of spirit spring water in her palm seemed to be increasing, and now, when she thought about it, an image would appear in her mind. She felt as though she was there, and she saw a golden fledgling pecking at something. That fledgling looked very much like a phoenix? Next to it, there was a bowl-like thing with complex golden lines on it. She couldn't see what was drawn, but there was a red liquid in the bowl.
Is that the spiritual spring water in my palm? Now there is not much liquid in it. What is going on?
Ye Zhen felt very strange. When she didn't want to see it, the picture disappeared from her mind. If she thought about it again, she would see the phoenix fledgling again. It seemed to be able to see her.
Ye Zhen was frightened and didn't know how it appeared.
She opened her palm and found that the red mark on her palm had disappeared. Was the golden fledgling in her mind the mark on her palm?
Unexpectedly, she was reborn into her sister's body, but there were so many things happening. She didn't know how the fledgling appeared in her mind. She had never seen it before.
Ye Zhen couldn't figure out this problem, so she had to put it aside for the time being. It was more important to solve the immediate problem first.
"Princess, this subordinate is back." Xue Lin stood outside the door and reported.
"Come in." Ye Zhen's eyes lit up. She didn't want to entangle herself with the little phoenix. What she had ordered Xue Lin to do before should have a result.
Xue Lin walked in with his head down and said to Ye Zhen, "Princess, what you ordered this subordinate to do has been completed. Now, rumors have spread outside Huaijiang City. This subordinate also found out that when Qiao Zebai transported the medicinal herbs, he sold them to a businessman surnamed Qiu. However, the businessman was not from Jin Kingdom. The medicinal herbs were transported to Jinkou City and sent directly to the ship."
"Jinkou City?" Ye Rou frowned. "What about the Disaster Silver?"
Xue Lin said, "In the past, most of the Disaster Silver went into Ye Yisong's hands, so Qiao Zebai didn't get much. This year, the imperial court didn't allocate any Disaster Silver, so the herbs were intercepted when they reached Huaijiang."
"The person who intercepted this batch of medicinal herbs must have been in contact with Qiao Zebai before. He must be someone who can cover the sky with one hand in the Huaijiang area. Otherwise, how could he dare to kill a few people and report it as a plague?" Ye Rou snorted. Her uncle had indeed raised a bunch of corrupt officials. Now that he was dead, those people still did not know how to restrain themselves.
Xue Lin said, "Princess, this subordinate will investigate this matter thoroughly."
Ye Zhen nodded gently, "Do you know who the special envoy who delivered the medicinal herbs this time is?"
He hoped that it wouldn't be another guy like Qiao Zebai.
"Princess, are you talking about Xu Ji?" Xue Lin asked.
"Yes, it's him." Ye Zhen nodded. She hadn't seen Xu Ji yet, but she felt that the name seemed familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere.
Xue Lin explained, "Xu Ji is Consort Xu Xian's elder brother."
Xu Huiru's elder brother? No wonder she felt that the name was familiar. It turned out that she had met him once before. Ye Zhen's mouth floated a slight smile. She had not only met Xu Ji before, but also had a grudge against him.
However, he probably didn't remember what she looked like. At that time, she was only seven or eight years old. She quarreled with Xu Huiru because of a poem. Xu Ji wanted to vent his sister's anger, but he was beaten by her brother.
Unexpectedly, he came to Huaijiang City.
"Let's go out of the city and have a look. Now the epidemic in the city is under control, but the people of the two villages outside the city are still not allowed to come out, nor are they allowed to enter." Ye Zhen said as she walked out of the house.
The city gate was no longer closed, but outsiders were still not allowed to come in. The people in the city were not allowed to go out for the time being. Ye Zhen had Xue Lin's token, so it was not difficult to get out of the city.
She went up the wall and met Huang Fuchen and Xu Ji.
"Master." Ye Zhen smiled and saluted Huang Fuchen.
Xu Ji, standing next to Huang Fuchen, looked at Ye Zhen sharply. Is this the Princess Furong that my sister told me about? She looks a little familiar, but this princess is really beautiful. No wonder my sister is so vigilant.
If I let her stay with the emperor, how could the emperor notice my sister?
"Didn't I tell you to rest today?" Huang Fuchen frowned, his tone a little displeased.
Ye Zhen smiled, "I have already rested, and I don't feel tired, so I came to have a look. Master, do you know how many people in the two villages are suffering from typhoid?"
Huang Fuchen stared at the soldiers not far away, who were guarding the intersection. A few miles away, there were more than a dozen soldiers guarding. "There are very few people in the two villages who are still safe and sound."
"Then what are we waiting here for? Hurry up and go in to treat them." Ye Zhen said hurriedly.
Xu Ji sneered and said, "That's easy for you to say. There are at least 200 people in the two villages. How many people do we need to go in to treat them? If we don't cure them by then, our people will be infected."
Ye Zhen looked back at him coldly, "Are you going to let them die in there?"
"This is a question of choice. One person dying or thousands dying, which will you choose?" Xu Ji asked.
"Master?" Ye Zhen didn't believe that Huang Fuchen would leave them to die. Now that the people in the city had recovered from typhoid, it proved that she was right to treat them according to the prescription of Qi's Medical Classic, not to mention that she had the spiritual spring water.
Huang Fuchen whispered, "Tomorrow, I will take people into the village to treat them. You don't have to go. Just cook the medicine outside the village entrance."
Ye Zhen frowned, "Master …"
"If you don't listen, then don't go out of the city." Huang Fuchen's voice became stern.
How could she do that! She still had to add the spiritual spring water to the medicine. Otherwise, how could the typhoid be cured faster? "Master, I will listen to you."
Xu Ji looked at Huang Fuchen unhappily, "Mr. Huang, I thought you just promised not to enter the village."
"I didn't promise you anything. There is no choice in human life. For a doctor, saving a life is a life." Huang Fuchen said faintly.
"Even if you go in, you may not be able to save them." Xu Ji said.
Huang Fuchen smiled, "Then I will try my best."
Ye Zhen immediately smiled, "Master, then I will go back now and ask someone to prepare the herbs."
