Chapter 119 Those who know medical skills should go
Under the gaze of everyone, the third prince had no choice but to nod.
The danger here is real, but so are the opportunities.
As long as the epidemic in the county can be brought under control, he can not only win over the old tutor, but also increase his prestige among the people.
Soon, everyone divided the work.
The county magistrate was responsible for public security and material transportation in the city, the old tutor was responsible for providing medicines, Xie Mubai was responsible for disinfecting the entire city, the treatment was left to Shen Wan, and the handsome third prince was responsible for being his mascot.
Shen Wan asked the county magistrate to find all the people in the city who knew medicine. She divided the city into four areas, and each area had a person in charge.
I chose the eastern part of the city where the epidemic was most serious.
"I have a batch of towels here. Let's distribute them to everyone." Shen Wan carried a few boxes of towels and said apologetically, "Because the quantity is too small, these can only be distributed to the doctors. The rest of you will have to find a way on your own."
In fact, the masks in the space can be provided continuously, but if he takes them out in public, the third prince will definitely be the first to see through his identity.
After all, masks are not something that should exist in this era.
After the division of labor was completed, a group of doctors with varying medical skills rushed to every corner of the county.
"Where are we going?" The third prince sat in the carriage and looked outside with some uneasiness.
Shen Wan smiled and said, “Of course we’re going to the east of the city.”
"You know, the eastern part of the city was given to me."
Upon hearing this, the Third Prince was so angry that his lungs almost exploded.
It was intentional, this ugly girl definitely did it on purpose!
The epidemic in the east of the city is the most serious. It’s okay if she is asking for trouble, but why does she have to drag others into it?
He finally got a script for the male lead, and he doesn't want to be a cannon fodder!
No, he doesn't want to go!
"Okay!" He pondered for a moment and said with a smile, "But Xiao Wang is in a hurry, can we stop by the roadside?
Only the devil would go there.
He is going to be the emperor in the future, so how can he put himself in danger!
Seeing that this child of destiny wanted to escape, Shen Wan smiled and handed over a bamboo tube: “You’d better make do with it.”
"Honestly, you are a prince, so you must be careful."
"People are so unsettled right now, it's inevitable that some people with ulterior motives will take advantage of the situation. I'm afraid it would be dangerous for you to go out alone."
Looking at the bamboo tube in his hand, the third prince couldn't help but feel a little confused.
What the ugly woman said seemed to make some sense. Safety issues were more likely to arise during times like this.
But is he sure he wants to use this thing in his hand?
"Xiao Wang...I suddenly don't want to go anymore." He said a little unnaturally.
A breeze blew, and the half-worn curtains rolled up.
At this moment, Shen Wan suddenly saw Shen Yan walking around like a headless fly with a cane.
Hu Dahai and others had already taken all the prisoners to the post station, but only left her behind.
She was penniless and was from the capital, so no one in the huge county was willing to take her in.
"By the way, doesn't she know medical skills?" Shen Wan's eyes lit up and she immediately looked at the Third Prince. "I heard that your face was cured by my elder sister."
"There's a shortage of doctors in the east of the city right now, so why not take her there?"
Looking at Shen Yan's pretty little face, the Third Prince agreed.
Regardless of whether she is the heroine or not, as long as this woman does not have any bad intentions, he does not mind having more women in his harem.
After hearing this, Shen Wan immediately ordered the accompanying officers to arrest Shen Yan.
"What are you going to do?" Shen Yan asked in horror.
The officer casually said, "Let me find you a place to stay."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yan couldn't help but feel happy.
As expected, it’s good to be beautiful. As soon as you feel sleepy, someone comes to give you a pillow!
Soon, the group arrived at the east of the city.
The east city intersection was already full of soldiers guarding the intersection. They had received orders long ago and did not conduct any inspection when they saw a carriage coming in.
The wide road was empty, without a single person in sight.
The sound of horse hooves hitting the ground sounded particularly clear at this moment.
The third prince stretched out his big hand and quietly opened the curtain a little.
Looking at the empty streets, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems the epidemic is not as serious as we thought."
Before he could finish his words, several officials came towards him, carrying corpses out.
When the third prince saw this, his face turned pale with fright.
"No, I don't want to come here!" Chen Yan took one look and immediately wanted to run out, "I'm the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Xiangyang, I don't want to come to such a place!"
Seeing this, the police immediately grabbed her.
No matter whether she is a legitimate daughter or an illegitimate daughter, who dares to disobey the order of the Third Prince?
After walking forward for a while, I saw several patients lying in a mess on the roadside.
They were listless, their faces were covered with pustules, and their dull eyes had long since lost the will to live.
Not far away was the medicine-making and porridge-distributing place set up by the county magistrate.
Several doctors with white cloths on their faces were squatting in front of the stove, lighting a fire. The pungent smell of Chinese medicine filled the stuffy air.
After the medicine was ready, an official filled a few bowls and gave them to the patients on the roadside.
The patients' eyes moved slightly, but they did not take it.
"Auntie, why don't you take your medicine?" Shen Wan got out of the car and asked when she saw this.
The old lady glanced at her and said weakly, "It's no use. I've already drunk several bowls."
“It’s not like the condition has gotten any better, it’s just getting worse.”
After hearing this, Shen Wan went to the stove to check the medicine residue.
The medicines prescribed by those doctors were standard and there was nothing wrong with them.
However, people are now in a panic, and patients give up after taking medicine several times without seeing any effect.
She thought about it and said to several doctors, "Let's add a detoxifying herb."
"How can that be?" the doctor retorted immediately, "This prescription was set by Boss He, and it cannot be changed at will."
"Even if we really want to change it, we have to get his consent!"
Boss He is the head of the doctors in the east district of the city. It is said that he has superb medical skills and is good at treating various difficult and complicated diseases.
Shen Wan knew that her weight was not enough, so she waved her hand and summoned the "mascot".
The third prince refused to get off the car.
He sat upright in the car and cleared his throat: "This is also what the king meant. You should do as this lady said."
Upon hearing this, several doctors were shocked.
I had heard that the third prince was coming to inspect, but I didn’t expect that he would actually come!
Since he has given the order, they have to add not only flavored detoxifying herbs, but even arsenic!
Seeing this, Shen Wan nodded and looked at the Third Prince: "Let's go forward."
"Aren't we going back?" The third prince's face darkened.
He really didn't know what made this girl so courageous. The epidemic here was so serious, but she still wanted to move forward.
But it didn't seem to matter that she was infected with smallpox. She was already so ugly, and disfigurement was equivalent to plastic surgery.
"You're leaving right after arriving?" Shen Wan said with a smile, "You haven't even spoken to the people yet."
"Well...it doesn't need to be long. Just tell us the time it takes to stick up an incense stick, and we'll be gone!"
The duration of an incense stick was neither long nor short, which made the third prince a little troubled.
Seeing his hesitation, Shen Wan smiled and said, “If you are afraid, go back first.”
When the third prince heard this, he immediately became angry.
He was afraid of death, but he absolutely could not bear the reputation of being afraid of death.
"If the young lady isn't afraid, why should I be afraid too?" The Third Prince said with a smile, "Let's go."
They ignored Shen Yan who was crying there, and the two of them wandered around the east of the city for a while.
Calculating that it was about time, the two of them walked out.
"I'm sorry, you can't leave," the guard said. "We have regulations. No one can leave, or they will be killed."
