After walking forward for another day, I finally arrived at the first small town in the Northland, Caishi Town.

There were heavily armed soldiers guarding outside Caishi Town, and when they saw the mighty convoy, they hurried up to greet them, and they were overjoyed to see Xu Ji.

Xu Ji didn't have time to exchange pleasantries, so he said directly: "Who is in charge of the overall situation here? Let him come to see me!"

The soldiers ran back inside in response, and after a while, a commander hurried over and stopped ten steps away from Xu Ji. He greeted Xu Ji first, and said directly without waiting for Xu Ji to ask: "The plague here is very serious. serious.

"The doctors all said that the plague that broke out in winter is extremely rare, and the source has not been found yet, but after the doctors' non-stop diagnosis and treatment, they finally concluded a set of treatment methods, basically it will not spread anymore, and the death toll has also decreased. .”

Xu Ji's heart became a little more stable, and it was easy for the Northland to recover and show prosperity. If it was destroyed by such a plague, wouldn't her and Song Qingzhai's hard work be in vain?

Not long after, the military doctor in charge also rushed over. He was still Xu Ji's old acquaintance, Lu Ne.

Lu Ne's attitude was respectful. They didn't have the medicinal materials here before. If Xu Ji hadn't sent someone to send a batch first, they would have been in trouble.

He is an expert, so the introduction is of course more accurate and detailed.

The two imperial physicians also listened carefully and asked questions from time to time.

Lune couldn't help but look at them a few more times.

Xu Ji introduced: "These are the two imperial physicians of the imperial hospital, Tang Shi and Zheng Li, both of whom have done research on the treatment of plague. I hope they can help Lu Jun doctor."

The three of them exchanged a few words and began to study on the spot.

Xu Ji interrupted helplessly: "Doctor Lu, we have brought a lot of medicinal materials, and we have to discuss how to arrange them. In addition, I still need to trace the source of this plague."

Lu Jun's medical treatment was okay, but he didn't understand anything about military affairs, so he discussed with the commander again.

The commander said embarrassingly: "Princess, although the situation here has stabilized, it is not very safe after all, so you'd better not bring anyone in, just put the medicinal materials here, and send someone from the humble job to bring them in." .

"As for the other situations, I don't know much about the situation, but I have already sent someone to report to General Luo. I think General Luo will be here soon."

Xu Ji knew that this was also out of safety considerations, so he didn't mind, so he made the delivery immediately and asked someone to set up a tent outside.

The two imperial physicians entered the town together with the medicinal materials.

Because the ground was still frozen solid, Xu Ji asked someone to clear away the snow in the open space, and then picked up dry firewood to light a fire. One can keep warm, and the other can slowly melt the frozen soil, which is convenient for piling.

Fortunately, they still carry a lot of food, so they won't be hungry.

After they set up the tent, Luo Hongzhang rushed over with a few soldiers, but he didn't dare to get close to Xu Ji. There was a distance of about ten steps, and his face was covered with a face towel boiled with medicinal juice.

Xu Ji was very anxious: "General Luo, how is the situation here? Is the plague spreading in the army?"

"Princess, don't worry," Luo Hongzhang was still calm, "The plague has appeared since the middle of the twelfth lunar month. It is very strange. It was discovered from the post station in the north, and then spread to Wuyang City with the people entering and leaving the post station. .”

Luo Hongzhang made a decisive decision and ordered the blockade of Wuyang City. All soldiers and civilians could only enter but not exit without special permission.

The surrounding villages and towns were also blocked on the spot, and military doctors were urgently dispatched and bell doctors were recruited for centralized diagnosis and treatment.

Anyone who died from the plague was not allowed to be buried and had to be cremated; those who were infected with the plague and did not report it would be punished with capital punishment, and those who reported and exposed would be meritorious.
