Yipin Tang

Chapter 121 Smallpox!

"Master, let's go to Qianniu Mountain, and we will see Chang'an in a while!" Lai Fu's voice sounded a little excited.

Although he and Tie Dan switched cars all the way, it took almost a month to return to Chang'an from Xizhou. The Qianniu Mountain outside Chang'an City had long lost its former greenness, and the bare branches exuded a desolate atmosphere.

Wang Xiang put down the curtain of the carriage and frowned slightly, the closer he got to Chang'an, the more uneasy he felt in his heart.

Ju Yiya saw Wang Xiang's uneasiness, and obediently held his hand, leaning her head on his shoulder.

Li Huiming has regained his energy, and now he is excited. This guy is really heartless. He didn't want to go to Gaochang after living a life in Chang'an, and he didn't want to go back to Chang'an when he was happy in Gaochang. Get excited again.

"Brother Wang, how long have we been away from Chang'an?"

"It's been half a year."

"Half a year..."

Wang Xiang thought what this guy was going to say, but after holding back for a long time, he popped out a sentence: "I don't know if Miss Mo'er in Wanxianglou still remembers me, I spent the night at her place before leaving Chang'an. "

……

No one paid attention to the hopeless Li Huiming, perhaps because Laifu was eager to return home, the speed of the carriage seemed to be much faster.

The fast-running carriage stopped suddenly, and the people in the carriage couldn't help leaning forward. Wang Xiang frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Lai Fu, who was sitting in front driving the car, whispered: "Master, Chang'an seems to be closed."

Seal the city gate?How could the city gate be closed just after the late hour?
Wang Xiang lifted the curtain in front of the carriage suspiciously, and the vermilion gate of Yanping Gate was tightly closed. Even the guards guarding the gate were unmoved.

What disturbed Wang Xiang the most was that the guards guarding the gate were all covered with cloth scarves, which were obviously different from the face scarves that Ju Yiya was wearing.

"Get out of the way!"

The vermilion door suddenly opened slowly, and an urgent voice came from inside.

The guards and common people surrounding the door all stepped back a few steps with frightened expressions on their faces, as if they were afraid of being contaminated by something.

As soon as the city gate opened, Wang Xiang saw a few guards who also covered their mouths and noses with cloth scarves pushing out a wooden cart, and there were several motionless... dead people piled up on the cart.

Some people don't seem to be dead, but they are also dying.

As soon as the wooden cart was pushed out, the surrounding people retreated even further, followed by several wooden carts, on which were a few people tied up with ropes, with rags stuffed in their mouths, one of them was a sturdy woman She broke free from the rag in her mouth and cursed endlessly, but no one was willing to step forward and re-stuff her with the rag.

"I don't have smallpox at all. You people who kill thousands of swords are pushing me to die. Let me go! Let me go!"

smallpox!When Wang Xiang took a closer look at the appearance of the people on the wooden cart, he felt a chill in his heart.The faces of the people in the carriage also changed drastically upon hearing the word "smallpox".

It wasn't until the wooden cart was gone that the surrounding people gathered around again and tried to grab the door, but when the last wooden cart came out, the vermilion gate was quickly closed, and the guards guarding the gate all had their knives out of their sheaths. What was revealed was a real murderous look, and some people had already lost their lives because they forced their way into the city gate.

Laifu drove his carriage to Yanping Gate and was stopped by the guards. The carriage prepared by Ju Wenya was extremely luxurious. The guards knew that the people in the carriage were of unusual status. Although they stopped the carriage, their tone was much softer: "Your Majesty has an order. People are not allowed to enter Chang'an, please forgive me."

After hearing what the guard said, Lai Fu was unhappy, and raised his head and said, "Do you know who my young master is?"

The guard frowned, he didn't care who it was at this time.

Laifu said unknowingly: "My young master is Prince Xin of the Marquis of Jiayuan, and now he is Gaochang Concubine!" As Wang Xiang's status became more and more prominent, and his own vision became higher and higher, Laifu was a bit of a sham. fault.

Hearing Laifu's words, the guard's face changed slightly. Although Wang Xiang left Chang'an for half a year, his reputation has not diminished in the slightest. Yipin Winery and Dengxian Tower have long been popular in Chang'an. Gewuyuan is also flourishing now. Poor people only want to send their children to Gewuyuan, but now many wealthy families are trying to send their children to Gewuyuan.

Since Wang Xiang dedicated gunpowder to Li Er and said that gunpowder is also the result of Gewu, Li Er has paid more and more attention to Gewuyuan. Although Wang Xiang is still a judge of Gewuyuan, the official position of this judge has been promoted from fifth rank to third rank , and the same grade as the Yushi doctor, and then it is the third grade of Zhongshuling and Liubu Shangshu.

You can get a title by relying on your ancestors' shade, but you can't get an official position by relying on your ancestors' shade. Even the son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty mostly got a six or seven-rank idle position.It is unique in the Tang Dynasty that Wang Xiang became a third-rank member before he was 20 years old. It can be seen that Li Er attaches great importance to him and favors him. In addition, everyone knows that His Royal Highness King Jin and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are close to Wang Xiang, and the guards feel extremely headache .

Laifu looked triumphantly at the embarrassed guard, and was about to say something when he heard Wang Xiang's voice behind him.

"You don't have to be embarrassed, we won't go in first."

"Master!" Lai Fu looked back at Wang Xiang in surprise.

Wang Xiang ignored Lai Fu, and said to the guards with a serious face: "You go to Zhao Guogong's mansion to find Mr. Changsun, and tell him that I am back, and I have a solution for smallpox."

The tone was flat, but the guard froze for a moment.

This is smallpox!Smallpox is more terrible than any drought or locust plague!

Seeing the guards in a daze, Wang Xiang frowned and said, "Hurry up!" Although he was very calm, he was more anxious than anyone else in his heart. Know.

The guard nodded in response and said, "I'll go right away."

He didn't think what Wang Xiang said was true, he felt that he wanted Master Changsun to let them into the city.

The city gate opened a small opening, and the guards closed it immediately as soon as they entered.

After the guards left, Laifu parked the carriage aside and asked curiously: "Master, do you really have a solution?"

Wang Xiang had a gloomy face and didn't speak. Laifu didn't dare to ask more when he saw Wang Xiang's complexion. Everyone else was worried.

Not long after, the vermilion door opened again, and a fat figure walked out quickly.

It was a great joy for the Tang army to defeat the 30 Turkic army. When the news came back, the whole Chang'an was a sensation. However, the sudden smallpox was like a basin of cold water, which completely wiped out the enthusiasm of Chang'an, and the whole Chang'an was panicked. .

As soon as Changsun Wuji went out, he saw Wang Xiang who was standing outside quickly stepped forward, and said anxiously: "Nephew Wang Xian, do you really have a way to cure smallpox?"
