Before Bi Yan left, everyone in the Feng family, including Guan Jinglin, Ma Xiaoyun and others, also came to see them off.

This time, Bi Yan let Chai Zhu'er, who came over, stay at the Feng family.

All of his party rode on horseback.

Bai Zi was also surprised when his young lady learned to ride a horse, but at this time, Bi Yan would not explain too much.

Because Bai Zi couldn't ride a horse, he was left behind by Biyan.

Even Shen Zhang ignored his old age and rode on horseback.

Shen Zhang first copied a copy of Biyan's piece of paper, passed it on to the flying pigeon, and handed it to Mo Ziting.

However, it is not certain whether Mo Ziting will adopt the described strategy, so he can only rush back in person.

Because it was a race against time, everyone raced against time and rushed desperately.

has been riding horses and hurrying, even a well-trained sergeant can't bear it for a long time, let alone Biyan, a delicate woman and a person of Shen Zhang's age.

Biyan's thighs have long been worn out, but she still gritted her teeth and insisted on hurrying.

Shen Zhang held on even harder.

When you are extremely tired, you will find a place to rest for a while.

Along the way, I also heard a lot of news.

It is said that the gate of the capital has been under martial law, and it is strictly forbidden to enter and exit.

Quite a few people have fallen ill.

And many more continue to fall.

Bi Yan was very anxious after hearing this, she only hoped that Mo Ziting could believe what they said and make some measures first, so that many lives could be saved.

Hurrying slowly, it still took five days to arrive at the gate of the capital.

Sure enough, the gate of the capital has been under martial law, and the gate is heavily guarded. No one is in or out.

As soon as Shen Zhang and the others arrived at the door, they were stopped by the leader of the heavily armed soldiers.

"The gates of the city are under martial law and no entry is permitted. Those who come quickly retreat, otherwise there will be no eyes under the knife. ”

Shen Zhangzi was not afraid, and asked Shen Kuan to take out the token of the Shen family and report his identity.

"It turned out to be Lord Shen, please forgive the rude general, it's just that Your Majesty issued an order. It is strictly forbidden to enter and exit, this. The soldier secretly looked embarrassed.

"The old man understands your difficulties, but the old man is here for the plague in Beijing at the moment. There is something important to report to Your Majesty, and a delay of a while will cost you a few lives, presumably you can't afford such a heavy responsibility, and the old man will explain everything to Your Majesty. I will not blame you. Hurry up and let it go. ”

The leader groaned slightly, and then ordered the soldiers to let them go.

Shen Zhang and the others hurriedly entered the city gate.

In the past, the capital was prosperous and lively, and people came and went, but now it is lonely.

There are few pedestrians on the road, and they all walk in a hurry.

Shen Zhang asked Biyan to go back to the Shen Mansion first, and then took Shen Kuan to the palace.

This matter is really huge, and it must be carried out with the support of Emperor Mo Qing.

Bi Yan naturally knew the severity, and hurried with Shen Kuan. Dumb went back to the Shen Mansion together.

The door of the Shen family was tightly closed, and they knocked for a long time. Someone opened it and was shocked to see them. Hurry up and open the door.

As soon as Bi Yan came in, he asked anxiously, "Is the house okay?" ”

"Hey, in the house, Young Master Yuan is sick, and there are a few of them."

Hearing that the little fat man A-Yuan was also sick, Bi Yan hurriedly walked to the house.

The Shen Mansion, which used to be full of laughter and laughter, is also in a sad atmosphere at the moment.

Before Bi Yan arrived at Ah Yuan's courtyard, she first met her mother-in-law Feng,

Feng couldn't help but shed tears when he saw Bi Yan.

"You stupid boy, why did you come back at this time, my mother was glad that you weren't in the capital, you are really."

"Mother, you are all in the capital, how can your daughter stay outside with confidence." Bi Yan looked worried.

"Why are you so stupid, you stupid boy, by the way, you're back, what about your grandfather?" Feng suddenly remembered Shen Zhang.

"Grandfather has gone to the palace to meet His Majesty."

"What, to meet Your Majesty, why do you want to meet Your Majesty?"

"For the sake of saving people, by the way, mother, I heard that A-Yuan is sick, how is he now, take me to see."

As soon as Ah Yuan was mentioned, the tears that Feng had just held back began to fall again.

"Ah Yuan is in his yard, and your grandmother doesn't let your mother in, and only lets a few maids and servants who have smallpox guard her."

Bi Yan couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately her grandmother stopped the Feng family, otherwise I am afraid that there will be one more sick person in the Shen Mansion, and the contagiousness of this smallpox is not a joke.

Fortunately, the grandmother, Mrs. Shen, and the eldest aunt, Cheng, managed it properly, and no one in the Shen Mansion was infected except for Ah Yuan, who was the first to become ill, and a few subordinates. This is a blessing in disguise.

Bi Yan went to the old lady's Baode Hall again.

The old lady also lost a lot of weight because she was worried about Ah Yuan's illness.

Seeing Bi Yan, she blamed herself again, and the same said that she shouldn't have come back at this time.

After sitting down and listening carefully to Feng and her grandmother for a while, Bi Yan finally had a general understanding of the situation in the capital.

The smallpox outbreak was sudden, and most of the families in the capital were sick.

Thinking that a family like their Shen Mansion isolates their own patients separately and is taken care of by people who have had smallpox.

But those ordinary people's homes don't have this condition.

The capital government and the Praetorian Guards were dispatched.

Collect patients from each household and manage them in a unified manner.

Hearing this, Bi Yan's heart was at ease, and the situation was better than she imagined.

In particular, I heard that Mo Ziting admonished His Majesty, made a large number of masks with cotton cloth, covered the mouth and nose, disinfected with lime and a series of effective measures, thus further preventing the spread of infection.

However, the most important thing at the moment is what Shen Zhang has to do.

That is to use "vaccinia" vaccination.

Time is very urgent, and if you find cowpox later, you don't know how many lives will be lost in between.

Bi Yan waited nervously in the house.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Shen Zhang to come back.

As soon as he came back, he was pestered by Biyan and asked.

"Well, did he listen to you?"

Shen Zhang rubbed his forehead and said a little tiredly: "Your Majesty has heard this, and has ordered people to find it as soon as possible, so that the people from the Tai Hospital will also follow." ”

"But, master, what kind of cowpox did you say really work?"

Bi Yan nodded affirmatively.

"Absolutely."

Shen Zhang immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good, Your Majesty is already worried about this matter, even many people in the palace are sick, if this continues, there will definitely be chaos in the DPRK and China, so it's better to solve it as soon as possible."

"So, hopefully they can find the cowpox soon." Biyan muttered to herself.

"Who's to say it isn't." Shen Zhang echoed.

"Okay, you're tired too, hurry up and rest." Bi Yan looked at Shen Zhang's extremely tired appearance and instructed.

"Master, let's rest quickly."

Biyan nodded and left.

Along the way, day and night, Biyan was so tired that she was about to fall apart, and she relied on her willpower to support it, and now, as soon as she returned to her yard, she washed her face and fell asleep.

The same is true for Shen Zhang. (To be continued......)
