The situation in the village was worse than Huang Fuchen had imagined. There were at least hundreds of people in the two villages. Apart from those who had taken refuge in the city for treatment, there were now only more than 200 people in the village. At least 80% of them were infected with typhoid. ♀
Huang Fuchen selected all the people who were not sick and let them drink medicine to prevent typhoid first. Originally, he wanted to let these people leave first, but Xu Ji felt that these people had been with the patients for a few days. He couldn't let them leave the village, lest they get sick after coming out and infect others.
Ye Zhen had no objection to Xu Ji's reason. She continued to boil medicine in the pavilion at the entrance of the village. Yesterday, she had put all the spirit spring water in a porcelain bottle. It should be enough for today.
"What is this?" Xu Ji had been observing Ye Zhen. Seeing that she deliberately added water from the porcelain bottle when boiling the medicine, he asked in confusion.
"Refined medicine soup." Ye Zhen replied faintly.
Xu Ji looked at the two large pots of medicine soup she had cooked, and a touch of disdain flashed in his eyes. "You don't think that you can save those people inside with this, do you?"
Ye Zhen asked without even raising her head. "If not, does Lord Xu have any other way?"
"When you are at your wit's end, you will naturally use my method." Xu Ji said confidently.
Apart from curing those patients, was there any better way?
Ye Zhen smiled faintly and no longer paid attention to Xu Ji. ♀
On the first day, Huang Fuchen and Qi Jin took some people in to feed the medicine to those who were not sick and let them find another place to live, so as not to be infected. In the evening, Huang Fuchen and the others did not leave the village. They had already been exposed to typhoid patients. If they came out of the village, they might infect others, so they simply rested in the village.
"Miss, you should also go back and rest." Dai Mei persuaded Ye Zhen who still refused to leave.
Ye Zhen nodded gently. For some reason, she suddenly felt a little uneasy. "I don't know how Master is. He has been running around these days. He must be very tired."
"Mr. Huang Fuchen is a doctor. He will take good care of himself." Dai Mei said.
She put the extra spirit spring water in a water bag and gave it to her master. She didn't know if he remembered to drink it.
"Let's come back tomorrow!" Ye Zhen said. Now that her master and Doctor Qi were in the village, it was useless for them to stay here.
Back in the city, Ye Zhen looked at the quiet road. The moonlight shone softly on the ground. She could see that the silt left by the water on the road had not been cleaned. The rain had stopped, and the people of Huaijiang City had begun to clean their houses. They had not yet reacted. Although there would be water at this time in the past, it had never been like this year. Not only was the city sealed for a few days, but people were also in a panic because of the typhoid epidemic.
"Is the dam already under construction?" Ye Zhen asked in a low voice.
Dai Mei said, "This servant heard that the dam is already under construction today. Lord Zheng personally led some people to build it."
Ye Zhen didn't know how the court would punish the responsible officials after the disaster. Now, she just wanted to find out who had embezzled the medicinal herbs and where they had gone. "Uncle" s Ye "Fut" s the words. "Hut from Hut from the Futian."
"Miss, we've arrived." She didn't know when the carriage had stopped, but the butler stood outside the door to welcome her.
The servants here were all arranged by Mo Rongzhan. They took good care of Ye Zhen. If it weren't for her own insistence, these people would not have let her go to the clinic.
"Princess, someone sent you a letter today." The housekeeper took the letter and said to Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen was stunned. "What letter?"
The butler took out a letter from his pocket. "Princess, it's here."
Even the Lu Family in Huaijiang City didn't know about her. Was it Mo Rongzhan? Impossible! If it was him, there was no need to send a letter to her through the housekeeper. Ye Zhen opened the envelope doubtfully. There was only one sentence in the letter. It seemed to be an old friend. See you tomorrow morning at Jiang Lou.
What does that mean? Who else knew that she was in Huaijiang City?
"Where is Jiang Lou?" Ye Zhen asked the housekeeper curiously.
The housekeeper said, "It's near the city gate. The River Tower is two stories higher than the city wall, and you can see the river. In fact, it's called River Tower."
Ye Zhen nodded gently. "Who is the person who delivered the letter?"
"It's a maid, about fifteen or sixteen years old." The housekeeper replied.
Ye Zhen really didn't know who it was. The more she listened, the more confused she became. Since it was an old friend and he knew that she was in Huaijiang, she should go and see him.
The next day, Ye Zhen got up early in the morning. She didn't know what time the so-called old friend wanted to meet her, but she still had to go out of the city to cook medicine. She didn't have much time to stay in the city. After breakfast, the sun had not yet appeared in the east, but she had already arrived at Jiang Lou.
Jiang Lou was three rooms wide and five stories high. There was no guest in the lobby. Probably because of the flood, the tables and chairs in the lobby seemed to have just been cleaned, and some water stains were not completely dry.
Where was she going to find her old friend?
"Are you Miss Lu?" The shopkeeper came out of the inside and looked at Ye Zhen with a smile.
"How do you know my surname is Lu?" Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows and asked.
The innkeeper smiled and said, "A customer upstairs said that if a girl as beautiful as a fairy came this morning, it would definitely be Miss Lu."
Ye Zhen's eyebrows wrinkled. "Shopkeeper, take me to see the guest first."
"Miss Lu, go straight to the top floor and you will see him." The shopkeeper bowed and asked Ye Zhen to go upstairs.
It seemed that the other party knew that she would come at this time. Ye Zhen was puzzled and went to the top floor. The top floor was different from the other floors. It was only used to look at the river. The scenery was beautiful and ordinary people could not easily go up.
Ye Zhen came out of the stairs and saw the figure sitting outside the corridor. She recognized him at a glance.
"Zhao Tianji? How could it be you! "She and Zhao Tianji had been together for at least half a month. Naturally, she could recognize his figure.
"Why can't it be me?" Zhao Tianji turned back and smiled at her. "Do you think that I will run away like a stray dog and not dare to appear in the Jin Kingdom again just because I lost my iron mine?" Zhao Tianji snorted unhappily. He was very unhappy to be looked down upon by Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen said, "I don't mean that, but your iron mine is gone and your villa is gone. Aren't you afraid of the imperial court arresting you?"
"There is no arrest notice on the street, not even an image of me. What should I be afraid of?" Zhao Tianji asked. "If I hadn't heard that you were here to save people, I wouldn't have come to this damn place."
"Then why did you come to this damn place now?" Ye Zhen asked helplessly. "Don't tell me you want to catch up with us? We don't have time."
Zhao Tianji curled his lips. "I just happened to pass by. I thought I was looking for you."
"I have other things to do. Let's talk when I'm done." Knowing that the so-called old friend was Zhao Tianji, Ye Zhen felt relieved and left the city.
