Chapter 59: Plague in Suiyang "Junior Sister! Be careful, be careful!"...
However, the person who came was Song Chen who came in a hurry.
"Your Highness, Master, something terrible has happened." Song Chen saluted hastily and said quickly, "Shortly after you two left, someone in the crowd fell unconscious."
"The rest of the people just thought he had fainted from hunger, so there wasn't much panic."
"But when Chuntao first met that person, she felt something was wrong."
Min Shian's heart suddenly tightened, fearing that the thing she was most worried about would happen.
"That person's skin was burning hot. Chuntao held her breath and took him away. He is now being kept alone in the carriage. The young doctor is on his way."
"There are about two to three hundred people present. I have found an excuse to keep them all here for now."
Song Chen spoke very quickly, and in a short while he explained the whole story clearly.
"Give orders! Martial law is in effect throughout the city. No one is allowed to enter or leave." Song Sheng's face turned even paler. He continued in a calm voice, "Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy."
"Yes, Master."
After receiving the order, Song Chen left the place like a flash.
If it really is an epidemic...
Min Shi'an's fingertips trembled, fearing that the entire people of Suiyang City would suffer.
The two looked at each other and hurried towards the porridge stall.
I don't know what excuse Song Chen used, but the people were all quietly drinking the hot porridge in big gulps, and as he said, there was no unrest.
Min Shian and Song Sheng were waiting outside the carriage. They did not disturb them, but instead stood a little further away and discussed countermeasures in a low voice.
After hearing the noise, they both turned around. Min Shian looked at the serious-looking young doctor and thought to himself that something was not good.
"It's the plague."
"The plague is highly contagious. The remaining people present must be separated immediately. I will check each one individually."
Min Shian gave Chuntao a look beside him, and Chuntao immediately understood, bent slightly, and then quickly walked towards the porridge stall.
Although plague is highly contagious, not everyone will be infected.
"Give me a prescription for treating the plague, and I'll send someone to buy the herbs."
As soon as Min Shian finished speaking, the young doctor took out a prescription from his sleeve and handed it to her, saying, "I still have some herbs, enough to make twenty-eight doses of medicine. Little Junior Sister, hurry up."
She nodded and put the prescription away. She then looked at Song Sheng, who had remained silent, and said worriedly, "Song Yanxuan, you're still seriously injured. Go back to the tent and recuperate. I'll take care of everything here."
"Yeah, just don't make things more complicated." The young doctor also echoed.
“Hey!”
"Song Yanxuan!"
Min Shian was quick to act and held Song Sheng, who had collapsed without any warning, firmly in her arms. She lightly touched his forehead with her other hand, but shrank back because of the heat.
Fortunately, there were two carriages parked here. Min Shian held the unconscious Song Sheng in his arms and strode towards the remaining carriage.
The stunned young doctor hurriedly followed, shouting, "Little Junior Sister! Be careful, be careful!"
Min Shian was extremely anxious. The outbreak of the epidemic was enough to give her a headache. Now Song Yanxuan was already seriously injured and had a high fever at the time of the epidemic outbreak.
What if it's...
She quickened her pace, and in a moment she had placed Song Yanxuan in the carriage and even put a soft pillow under him.
Song Sheng lay there, letting her do whatever she wanted, with a pale face and bloodless lips, just like a porcelain doll.
"Junior sister, please get out of the way. Get out quickly. We still rely on you to take charge of the situation. What will we do if anything happens to you? Go, go, go."
Min Shian was pushed and shoved out of the carriage by the young doctor, and had to pace anxiously outside the carriage again, waiting.
She did not attempt to enter the carriage again. If she did, she would still be driven out by the young doctor. As a result, she would only waste the time to diagnose Song Yanxuan.
Min Shian remembered that he had a high fever and fell into a coma due to an inflamed wound not long ago. She was no longer so nervous, thinking that maybe there was something wrong with the wound this time.
After all, the Suiyang area is humid and hot, and wounds are most likely to ulcerate and become inflamed.
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Min Shian saw the young doctor's evasive expression, and her heart skipped a beat. She asked in a trembling voice, "How is it?"
"yes……"
The young doctor breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's the inflammation of the wound that caused the high fever. Junior sister, I will take good care of him this time. You can go and do your own thing!"
"Then you take good care of him."
Min Shian felt relieved after hearing this, and left in a hurry after leaving this sentence.
Now is the busiest time, and she can't choose to stay and take care of Song Yanxuan for her own selfish desires.
She took the prescription and took people to various major pharmacies to purchase medicinal materials in large quantities. However, due to heavy rain and floods, there were very few available medicinal materials.
Min Shi'an didn't waste any time. He immediately copied the prescription and sent someone to deliver it to Xiao Shi, leaving a message saying that the more the better.
The letter was sent out, but she was not idle either. She took her people running around all day and collected the required amount of medicine for about a hundred doses.
Min Shian felt helpless. These were far from enough. If the epidemic broke out on a large scale, these would not even be enough for half a day. But she had already run all over Suiyang City today.
I'll go to the nearby city to look for it tomorrow.
As soon as Min Shian arrived at the command center, several people knelt on the ground and bowed deeply to greet her, repeatedly shouting, "Thank you, Princess, for saving my life! Thank you, Princess, for saving my life!"
She recognized the people whose fevers persisted and whose organs were failing. She hurried over and helped them up herself, saying, "You don't have to do this."
"It was the little doctor who saved you. I was also powerless at the time. You should go and thank the little doctor."
Those people turned a deaf ear to him, and after a while of expressing their gratitude with tears in their eyes, they said, "Thanks to Her Royal Highness the Princess for her great magical powers, please send for the little miracle doctor!"
"Otherwise, I'm afraid we would have gone to look for Yama long ago."
The smile on Min Shian's lips deepened a little, and she finally understood what Song Yanxuan was planning.
She wanted fame and prestige, so he would go along with it and do her a huge favor.
After all, people who hold great power generally don't care much about these illusory reputations.
"Everyone, please take a good rest. I will feel more at ease when I see that you are safe and sound."
"Yes, yes, it's all at the Princess' command."
Min Shian strode to the tent where Song Yanxuan was, but was stopped by the little doctor with a smile.
She raised an eyebrow, moved the little doctor's arm away, and asked, "What does this mean?"
"Oh, little junior sister, why are you so anxious to see our Lord Song? It's a pity that our Lord Song hasn't woken up yet. You shouldn't disturb him." The little doctor winked and smiled.
Min Shian stopped and said thoughtfully, "Can't I even take a look?"
"no!"
A strange feeling flashed through her mind, and she asked, "When will his high fever subside?"
"Seven or eight days at most, tomorrow at least."
Min Shian continued, "Did he get the plague?"
"yes……"
The young doctor's smug expression froze, and he changed the subject and said, "Is that so?"
"Haha, of course not!"
Min Shian glared at the awkwardly smiling young doctor, and ignoring his obstruction, he raised his foot to walk in, his palms already covered in sticky sweat.
In the end, she was stopped by Song Chen's words.
He said, "The master would not want you to go in."
Min Shian felt so upset and aggrieved. She knew why Song Chen said that. If it was her lying inside, she would not want Song Yanxuan to act impulsively at this critical moment.
She said nothing and walked away.
"Master, everyone has been arranged. I have asked them to temporarily settle down in a village that has been evacuated."
"The doctor is now checking the physical condition of everyone present. If anyone shows signs of high fever, they will be sent to the tent immediately."
"The remaining doctors will examine all the remaining people one by one."
Min Shian nodded and replied, "You and the other doctors should keep your veils on. Even if you are in good health, you should not underestimate the power of the epidemic!"
"Also, let those who are cleaning up the sewage and clearing up the mess move faster and make sure everyone wears their veils securely."
"Yes, Master."
After Chuntao left, Min Shian rubbed his forehead, took a short rest for half an hour, and then left the tent again.
She wants to nip the epidemic in the bud before it breaks out completely, and she can't rest now.
However, things don't always go as planned.
The hundreds of people who were placed in that village by Chuntao broke out with high fever symptoms one after another, causing panic among the people. Many people who had not yet fallen ill insisted on leaving and quarreled with the guards.
More or less people in various parts of Suiyang City have developed high fever and coma.
Although many doctors were transferred from other places, it was still far from enough.
By the time Min Shian received the news and went to the village, it was already too late. The high fever had burned more than ten people to death, and the medicine they had taken had not yet taken effect.
The remaining people were either unconscious or burned to a pulp. The few healthy people were all at the entrance of the village, crying and clamoring to leave.
Min Shian first calmed the emotions of several people. Chuntao happened to arrive at this time, so they took these people back to the command center and stayed there temporarily.
"Xiao Tao, take people to clean up the bodies of those who died of the plague."
Min Shian paused, then continued, "Keep away from people and make sure to hide it from all the people."
"Yes, Master."
"Also, inform Song Chen and have him tighten martial law. Not a single bird is allowed to escape."
Chuntao agreed and left quickly.
She went to Song Yanxuan's tent to look for the young doctor and asked in a deep voice, "Can this prescription be improved?"
"What's wrong, Junior Sister?"
Min Shian frowned and continued, "Several people just died before the drug took effect. Can you speed up the onset of the drug's effects?"
Hearing this, the young doctor rubbed his chin and thought for a moment before replying, "It's feasible."
"But an ordinary person's body might not be able to withstand such a strong drug."
Min Shian thought of those people who died with their eyes wide open, and even had residual medicine stains at the corners of their mouths. It was obvious that they would be rescued soon.
She weighed the pros and cons again and again, and finally said, "I want to see the new prescription in an hour."
Then she continued, "How is Song Yanxuan?"
