"stop!"
donkey!
The carriage arrived at the city gate.
He was stopped by a soldier raising his hand.
Qinglong tightened the reins, and with a donkey's bray, the carriage came to a stop.
The soldier looked at the blue dragon, then at the carriage.
"Where are you from? What are you doing in the city? Who's in the car?"
Listening to the soldier's question.
Qinglong did not answer immediately, but turned to the carriage and spoke.
"Master, shall we reveal our identities?"
Inside the train carriage.
Qin Mohan shook his head: "No need, just say we're visiting relatives."
"yes."
After Qinglong finished speaking, he turned to the soldier and said, "We've come to visit relatives."
"Visiting relatives?"
"That's right."
"Where did you come from?"
"The capital city."
What? The capital city?
Upon hearing that the soldier had come from the capital, he frowned slightly, first sized up Qinglong, and then spoke again.
"Then your men come down, I'll check them out."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan and Ye Qingcheng both stepped out of the carriage.
The officer looked Qin Mohan, Ye Qingcheng, and Xiao Tao up and down.
They were dressed in fine clothes and didn't seem like ordinary people.
Then he looked at the carriages carrying the other thirteen and Leng Yi.
"What's in that carriage behind us?"
Qin Mohan said calmly, "Two of my brothers have caught a cold and are unable to come out."
"What? You caught a cold?"
Upon hearing this, the officers and soldiers, along with the other guards, immediately panicked.
"Hurry...hurry...speed up the process of entering and leaving the city gates."
And at this moment.
Passersby didn't need the soldiers to shout at them.
At this moment, they were also filled with panic. There were still a few people standing there, watching Qin Mohan and his group.
They all seemed to avoid the word "cold" at the mere mention of it.
Some rushed into the city, while others rushed out, not daring to linger any longer.
And at this time.
The officer led all the guards to retreat into the city gate and made a gesture as if to close it.
Qin Mohan, Ye Qingcheng, Qinglong, and the others all looked puzzled upon seeing this.
While the city gates were half closed.
Ye Qingcheng jumped off her horse and looked at the soldier with a slight frown.
"Sir, wait a minute, may I ask what has happened that has caused such a panic?"
Upon hearing this, the officer signaled to his men to stop.
Then he answered, "Recently, several neighboring cities have experienced outbreaks of plague. Did anyone in your car catch a cold?"
"plague?"
"That's right, quite a few people have already died in several neighboring cities."
"What? Quite a few people died?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng quickly asked, "Has anyone in the city been infected?"
"Yes, but not many. They've already been quarantined."
"So, you're checking people here to prevent outsiders from entering the city?"
"That's right."
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng frowned slightly: "Sir, I am a physician. Could you please allow us into the city and take me to see those infected with the plague?"
"Are you a doctor?"
Ye Qingcheng nodded.
After hearing this, the soldier thought for a moment and said, "Alright, wait here for a moment while I go and inform our superior."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
The soldier also nodded politely to Ye Qingcheng.
Originally, he didn't want to pay any attention to Ye Qingcheng, but seeing their gorgeous clothes and the fact that they came from the capital, he was afraid that they were high-ranking officials he couldn't afford to offend, so he said a few more words to Ye Qingcheng.
However, after saying that...
He still gestured to his men to close the city gates completely.
Upon seeing this, Ye Qingcheng frowned, but said nothing. She returned to the carriage and waited for the soldier's report.
Qin Mohan frowned slightly, looked at Ye Qingcheng, and asked, "Qing'er, do you really want to go see those people infected with the plague?"
Ye Qingcheng nodded: "Yes! If it really is a plague, if it is not stopped in time, I'm afraid even more people will die."
"Stop it? You mean you can cure the plague?"
"Pretty much! Actually, this plague isn't that scary. It's just like catching a cold, except it's highly contagious."
"Since you know it's highly contagious, why did you still go to see it?"
"It's alright, I have a way to suppress the spread."
After hearing this, Qin Mohan nodded and said nothing more.
After all, he knew Ye Qingcheng's abilities, and as a prince, he should take the well-being of the people as his responsibility.
Meanwhile, on this side...
The soldier hurriedly headed towards the government office.
At this moment, in the government office.
Governor-General of Liangjiang, Richard.
Chen Tai'an, Governor of Jiangnan.
Provincial Surveillance Commissioner, Wu Sanzhong.
The prefects of each city, along with several minor officials, were sitting together, seemingly discussing something.
"My lord, in my humble opinion, it would be better to simply expel all those infected with the plague from the city."
"That's right. Right now, in our Jiangnan region, only Jinling is relatively safe. If it gets infected again, then our entire Jiangnan region will be wiped out."
"Yes, sir."
"Damn it, what kind of idea is this? If we kick out those who are infected, won't that just make more people infected?"
"But if we don't do this, I'm afraid we won't be able to save Nanjing!"
"Hmph, if that's really the case, I think we're the ones who are truly doomed."
"this…"
"By the way, sir, didn't you say that someone had been sent over from above? Why haven't they arrived yet, even after several days?"
