That man was Dr. Li from the Huimin Department. Zian had already tied them up, but someone sneaked in and rescued him.
Dr. Li cried and said: "General, my surname is Li, and he is a doctor from the Huimin Administration. The king of the town sent this villain to Muzhai to assist the Princess Regent in treating the illness. Unexpectedly, the Princess Regent was not here to treat the illness at all. , She wants to harm our people in the Northern Desert, General, you must report it to the Emperor."
Qin Zhou helped him up and said, "Don't cry yet. You are safe now. Slowly tell me what happened."
Doctor Li stood up tremblingly, wiped his face, and said: "Returning to the general, a few days ago, I went to Muzhai to treat the plague on the order of the king of Zhenzhen. At that time, the regent and his wife of Da Zhou were also in Muzhai. In the village, I helped her treat for a few days. I found that not only did the patients not get better, but more and more people were infected. At that time, the villain felt it was strange, so he secretly studied the prescription with several other doctors and discovered her prescription. It was not a prescription for treating an epidemic, but a prescription for diarrhea that weakened the body and damaged the yang energy. At that time, the villain went to her with the medicine and argued with her, but was beaten by her people... "
"Her people? Did she bring many people there? Where are the people in Muzhai? Are they all infected? Didn't you say that Su Mu is in Muzhai? Why didn't you ask him for help?" Qin Zhou realized something was wrong and immediately interrupted his words.
Doctor Li said angrily: "The regent princess told the villagers that she is a disciple of Doctor Wen Yi. Her medical skills are very good. Most of her patients are because of the severe plague. If it weren't for her prescription, everyone would be infected. How could Mr. Su do it?" Help the villain? He is also sick, not only him, but many officers and soldiers in Muzhai are also sick. "
"Su Mu is also sick?" Qin Zhou's anger became even more intense. It seemed that what Zhou Yifei said was true, and Murong Jie and his wife had ulterior motives.
Doctor Li said: "Yes, that day she ordered someone to beat the villain and tie him up. Later, he had to be helped by a villager to escape. She also knew that the villain had escaped, so she sent someone to chase him, but he didn't. If she dared to return to Beijing, she was afraid that the people she sent would find her, so she went to join the villain's cousin. "
In the past, Dr. Li's words were full of errors and he might not have been able to deceive Qin Zhou. However, Empress Cao spoke up first, and then read Concubine Yi's letter. In addition, the official said that Xia Zian drank a lot of the medicine given by him. The people were all sick, so she decided that Xia Zi'an had a bad intention and wanted to murder the people of the Northern Desert.
She held back her anger and asked the guards to take Dr. Li back to the capital. She wanted to go to Muzhai in person
Find Xia Zian.
The guard advised: "General, it's too dangerous for you to go alone, so let the general take you there."
Qin Zhou said: "No need, this is the Northern Desert, not the Great Zhou Dynasty, what should I be afraid of?"
After saying that, after leaving the archway, he got on his horse and drove away.
Zian is busy experimenting with prescriptions. It can be said that he has been extremely busy these past two days.
Su Mu had a high fever yesterday, but after taking the new medicine, the high fever subsided. It can be seen that this prescription is effective for patients who have just started to suffer from the disease.
However, the same prescription has no obvious effect when used on seriously ill people.
At first I thought it was a problem with the dosage, so I increased the dosage, but the effect was still minimal.
It seems that we need to find the golden key.
"Zian, there is a flying pigeon delivering a message." Rouyao came in, holding a note in her hand and handed it over.
Zi'an was in a state of confusion when he heard Fei Ge's message and was startled for a moment. He reached out to take it, "Fei Ge's message? Is it Lao Qi?"
"No, it was given by Gao Fengtian and Lingli." Rouyao said.
Zian immediately opened it and took a look. Previously, she asked Gao Fengtian to go to Dazhou to see if the plague had spread to the border of Dazhou.
Gao Fengtian said that the plague has not been found in the border town and everything is calm.
No epidemic was found, which made Zian feel relieved.
"There is no epidemic in Dazhou, so we still have to stay here." Rouyao said.
Plague only exists here. If you want to observe the disease and develop prescriptions, you can only do it here.
Zian said: "It would be better if we didn't. Although it is more dangerous to stay here, at least Lao Qi can do things while we are here."
"Well, are there any new prescriptions coming out today?" Rouyao asked.
"How about tonight, the two of us in the West House?"
"The situation is not very good. The high fever has not subsided. She is talking nonsense and the skin is ulcerated." Rouyao took off her mask. "However, Mr. Su's condition is much better. I believe that if you take the medicine for a few more days, you should be fine. This prescription is useful. It can, at least, treat the onset of disease and prevent it.”
"Rou Yao, you send the prescription to Gao Fengtian using a flying pigeon, and ask him to send a copy to several small towns in the surrounding areas and make announcements at the government offices, making sure that the people take the prescription." Zian said.
"Okay!" Rouyao wrote a recipe herself, "I'll take it out to Lingli later."
Zian asked: "Is there any reply from Princess An?"
"No, there is no reply. The emperor of Beimo probably didn't distribute the prescription. I wonder if Princess An can think of a solution."
"Rouyao, we can't count on the Northern Desert Emperor and have to curb the spread of the epidemic ourselves." Zian put down the medicine in his hand and said.
"But, what can we do?" Rouyao looked very depressed. After all, this is not Dazhou, and everything they do is controlled by others. Especially, they are weak in power and lack of manpower.
"We want the Northern Desert to cooperate with us. Only a few countries are putting pressure on him. Who do you think can quickly spread this news to the countries surrounding the Northern Desert? Moreover, it must be convincing enough to make other countries believe this. The truth of the matter?" Zian asked.
"I'm going to find Lingli." Rouyao's eyes lit up and she turned around and went out.
After a while, Rouyao and Lingli came in. After listening to Zian's words, Lingli thought for a moment, "There is one person. This person is Old Prince An Ran."
"Old Prince An Ran?" Zi An was delighted. Yes, Old Prince An Ran's reputation was well-known in the seven countries. If he said that the epidemic would spread, then everyone would definitely believe it. "
"But isn't Prince An Ran missing? Who can find him?" Rouyao asked sadly.
"That's right. How easy is it to find him?" Zian couldn't help but feel discouraged again. If he was here, he probably knew what the golden key was.
Lingli didn't speak, but moved her lips, looked at Zian, and swallowed the words again.
Rouyao looked at her and asked, "Lingli, do you know his whereabouts?"
Lingli looked at Rouyao and hesitated for a while, but didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Zian said: "Lingli, if you know his whereabouts, tell him immediately. During this period of hesitation, many people died of the plague."
Lingli then said: "Actually, when we came to Bei Desert, the old prince was with us. He was in contact with me a few days ago, but these days, I don't know where he went."
"Ah?" Zian was shocked, "He followed? Then why didn't he go and heal himself?"
"I don't know about this, but I heard that there is some disagreement between Beimo and Daliang. As for what is involved, I don't know much about it."
Zian found it difficult to accept, "Why can't we let it go first? The people who died in this plague are ordinary people. There are so many lives, and he is a doctor... "
