Xiao Yanchu didn't want Su Ruojin to come; the journey was long and the conditions were harsh, and he didn't want Ajin to suffer.
But Su Ruojin insisted on coming along.
“Yanchu, I have to go. Apart from the epidemic, I always feel that there is something strange about the defense map.”
And have you noticed that, whether it's Da Chu, Xiao Yue, or Yun Qi, the places where the epidemic first broke out were all villages adjacent to Bei Li? I suspect that this matter is inseparable from Bei Li.
If it were just smallpox, I wouldn't mind not going. But I'm afraid the Northern Li might have other tricks up its sleeve, so I'll go along as a precaution.
I know you worry about me, but how could I ever worry about you? We promised each other we'd never separate again.
Everyone was vaccinated with cowpox. Subsequently, Xiao Chenyi sent two people to the epidemic area closest to the capital to verify that being vaccinated with cowpox would indeed prevent smallpox infection. He then sent people to the epidemic area in batches to begin large-scale cowpox vaccination.
Mohan is arguably the farthest place from the capital. Xiao Yanchu had said he would come to Mohan, so of course he couldn't go back on his word.
Faced with Su Ruojin's insistence, he finally chose to compromise.
Upon arriving at the camp, everyone immediately began vaccinating all the soldiers against smallpox, without even taking a break.
Wei Xuebin was stunned when he saw it.
He only learned from Bei Li that smallpox vaccination could protect against the disease, which explains why Xiao Yanchu and the others also knew this.
Could it be that someone in Bei Li told them?
However, Lin Wanqing had repeatedly assured that no one except Bei Li knew about this matter.
With so many people in Bei Li, it's possible that someone else said it.
But... why do Su Ruojin and the others call it smallpox?
Bei Li has always called it "Pox Scar".
If it were spread from Bei Li, it should also be called "Pox Injury".
Su Ruojin and the others didn't care what Wei Xuebin was thinking; they were already doing their jobs and starting to inoculate people with smallpox.
There were many soldiers in the military camp, and it was unclear how long it would take them to finish planting.
The only option is to bring in people who have already been vaccinated with smallpox and have had milder reactions, to explain their situation, and to add them to the vaccination army.
The imperial physician originally wanted to vaccinate Wei Xuebin first, but Wei Xuebin insisted on giving priority to the other soldiers and insisted on being vaccinated last.
Many soldiers were deeply moved upon hearing this, feeling that the general was thinking of them. Only Su Ruojin glanced at Wei Xuebin thoughtfully.
When did the Wei family become so righteous?
However, now is not the time to think about these things. Some people in the military have already been infected with the disease, and if we don't speed things up, the number of infected people will only increase.
Su Ruojin and Yan Luo also joined the smallpox vaccination campaign, and even Su Muyao came to help.
There were just too many people in the army. After continuously inoculating people with smallpox for three hours, Su Ruojin was about to stand up to get a drink of water when she suddenly felt dizzy and her whole body swayed. Her vision went black and she fell to the ground.
Xiao Yanchu, who had been by Su Ruojin's side and helping her, saw this and immediately helped Su Ruojin up, his eyes filled with panic.
"Yanluo! Imperial Physician!" Xiao Yanchu roared, picked up the unconscious Su Ruojin, and rushed into the tent.
When Yanluo saw the princess fall, her face turned pale, and she rushed over. Wu Tidian also hurriedly followed her into the tent.
"Quick, see what's wrong with the princess?"
Xiao Yanchu felt a chill run down his spine, just like when A Jin was poisoned and her life hung by a thread.
In the past few days, he has witnessed firsthand how terrible it is to be infected with smallpox, watching helplessly as people die from the disease.
None of the people who came were infected, which proved that cowpox was effective.
But in this world, there's always a chance of something going wrong.
Ah Jin was vaccinated against smallpox many years ago. What if Ah Jin gets infected with this disease...?
Xiao Yanchu dared not think any further. He stood aside watching Yanluo and the imperial physician take turns taking his pulse, his body beginning to tremble.
Ah Jin, you absolutely cannot be hurt!!!
