Later in the evening, Zhou Tan divided the fifteen doctors hired into twelve groups, stationed in the pharmacy or pharmacy that had been vacated in Wancheng, began to sit for consultation, and left twenty palace guards to temporarily act as pharmacy men, assisting the doctors to assemble the medicine list, and pack them one by one in a course of three days.

After the doctors instructed this batch of "temporary guys" to sort and match, the pharmacies immediately started to boil, the pot stove was not enough, so the people brought out the tandoor from home, directly on the side of the street to light a fire, or take away the prepared herbs, go home to boil, for a while, Wancheng was smoky, the tip of the nose smelled, all the taste of herbs sweet and bitter, the whole Wancheng seemed to be bitter, alive.

Later, Zhou Tan divided Duanxue Tieqi into three teams, one team was responsible for taking care of more than ten restaurants, inns, and even two temples requisitioned by the Chengfu Yahe in Wancheng County, which was a severely epidemic quarantine area.

The second team, with the prepared medicine towels and the remaining five doctors, was led by the people who volunteered to help, to diagnose and treat patients living in remote areas, and then distinguish between severe and mild symptoms to prevent the spread of the epidemic.

The third team is simple, adhering to Zhou Tan's rough military order, "find someone earlier, and the hope of treatment is greater", beating the gong, erecting the king flag of the word "Ning", walking the streets and alleys, informing the people of Wancheng that the rescue soldiers of the Yongning Royal Mansion have arrived, and using the urn jar to fill the medicinal soup and distribute it to the household, and find out the plague infection situation by the way.

For a time, Wancheng gongs and drums were noisy, lively and extraordinary, and the people in the distance also heard the movement, and rushed to various medical halls, took pots and bowls, and took the decoction back. If there are people who are in good health, they will take the initiative to help them.

Wang Shaoyuan divided the imperial forest guard into two teams, one team followed himself with the geographical map of Wancheng found from the county mansion, and went to Linpei Mountain to search one well after another, chasing the clues of poisoning and the people who poisoned them.

The other team was responsible for cleaning up the corpses, transporting the corpses on the roadside to Yizhuang, and then looking for the family of the deceased, signing them, and then clearing the site at the mass grave near Yizhuang, setting up a bonfire, and burning the corpses.

Batches of corpses are disposed of, it is a hard work, and it is no wonder that the royal guards are resentful, and the glamorous work has been robbed by Duanxue Iron Cavalry, and now the city knows that the king of Yongning has sent soldiers to save the city, but few people know that there are still a hundred royal guards who are also working for the people of Wancheng.

Wang Shaoyuan didn't know that the Imperial Forest Guard was dissatisfied in his heart, but he only said that Duanxue Iron Cavalry was facing all living people, which was more contagious and more dangerous, and it was also done by the imperial court that Wancheng fell to its current state, and it was indeed the leader of Princess Mercy and Duanxue Iron Cavalry who entered the city to save people.

Before entering the city, Ye Xingcan thought that the Duanxue Iron Cavalry and the Royal Mansion Guards were the northwest troops, which had nothing to do with Wancheng, but the Imperial Forest Guards were different and had a wide range of troops. He checked the Wancheng people in the Royal Forest Army in advance, and found that there was only one person, so he called him in advance, and asked him that no matter what the situation at home was, he would not be in a mess, and it would be a big deal to solve the epidemic in Wancheng at the moment.

When the soldier entered the city, he found that the family was dead, and the corpses were still in the house and no one was restrained, and the seven-foot man was crying, thinking of what the princess had said before, he could only reluctantly sign the fire list and send the family to be burned with his own hands.

But looking at himself in a Royal Forest Guard uniform, and then looking at the miserable situation of the family, how could he not hate in his heart, so he went to find Zhou Tan that night, wanting to unload the Royal Forest Armor from the Snow Cavalry Army and serve the Yongning Palace, but was stopped by Zhou Tan, only let him continue to stay in the Royal Forest Guard, and when needed, someone would go to the imperial capital to find him.

At night, Ye Xingcan saw that everything was in order, and he was finally relieved.

Thinking about the plague in Wancheng for nearly two months, thinking that this poisoned person must have been stationed in Wancheng for at least two months, or he was originally from Wancheng, so in this way, Qiao Qianli, who only came from the Yongning Imperial Doctor's Department a month ago, would not be the thief, thinking that he was the person who knew the most about the epidemic in Wancheng today, so he asked Doctor Qiao to come over and talk.

Ye Xingcan was not verbose, he directly took out the Ganluo flower and handed it to Qiao Yizheng, and concisely told him that he met the old man outside the city a few days ago, and used this flower to combine with ordinary epidemic medicine, and the effect was remarkable.

Qiao Qianli looked at the Ganluo flower, and only felt strange, this flower is also clear, it should have nothing to do with the epidemic, but it has such a miraculous effect, seeing that the princess is conclusive, it is not easy to question. Out of prudence, the medicine was quickly prepared and sent to a serious family next door to try the medicine.

While waiting for the medicinal fruit, Ye Xingcan asked Qiao Qianli if he felt that there was something strange about this epidemic after coming to Wancheng for so long, or if it was unreasonable.

Qiao Qianli has been spinning continuously, and he has never had time to think about it carefully, and he was stunned when he suddenly heard this question, and he shook his head.

Ye Xingcan thought for a while, and then reminded, "Qiao Yizheng, have you noticed that the epidemic in the south of the city is particularly serious?" ”

A few days ago, when a patient came to seek medical treatment, he said that there was a crying mourning in the south room of the city, or the door was closed and died, or the family was mourned, and now, there are ten rooms and nine empty. At that time, it was strange that the south of the city was at the foot of Linpei Mountain, and it stands to reason that the people often go up the mountain, and their physical condition will only be better, how can they be so miserable, but they don't have time to check.

Ye Xingcan saw that he couldn't get much information from Qiao Qianli, so he had to take out the map of Wancheng with Lingxiang and think about it carefully.

Deeper in the evening, the weekly talks are for the sergeants to rest and recuperate in batches to ensure that the severely affected areas are always watched.

That night, Wancheng, which had not seen a fire for half a month, was brightly lit, and there were long queues to receive medicine at the entrance of each medical center, and snow riders were also stationed at various intersections, distributing medicine towels and teaching the people to cover their mouths and noses to avoid infection.

When Wang Shaoyuan returned to the city, he saw that Wancheng was already in order, and he couldn't stop admiring Ye Xingcan and Duanxue Tieqi, and only felt that King Yongning had this virtuous help, and what he planned in the future would be a success.

This time, along with Wang Shaoyuan, there were only 21 people who survived in the south of the city, or it should be said, 21 people who were still alive and still living at the foot of Linpei Mountain.

Thirteen of them already had symptoms and were directly sent to the county mansion for treatment, and the remaining eight were the key suspects of Wang Shaoyuan.

Wang Shaoyuan frowned slightly, thought about it and said, "Princess, this time the battle into the city is not small, it should have alarmed the poisoner, fortunately, he rushed to Linpei Mountain early in the morning to set up defenses. At noon, we found a suspicious man at a well in the mountains, but the man's martial arts were not weak, and there were hidden arrows in the forest, so we didn't pay attention to him, so we let the man escape. ”

As if feeling ashamed, Wang Shaoyuan knelt down at Ye Xingcan, "The last general was derelict in his duty and chased for a long time, but the two of them were not found." ”

Although Ye Xingcan thought of someone continuing to poison in the well of Linpei, so he asked Wang Shaoyuan to lead people to guard it, but he didn't expect that he had already encountered it on the first day, and he only said in a daze, "Please lead Wang to get up, the incident happened suddenly, and the other party is familiar with the terrain of mountains and forests, so it is normal that he is not caught, and at least one of these two people should be a local resident, otherwise how to seize the opportunity, Commander Wang has already brought people back, isn't it?" It's been a great job."

Wang Shaoyuan didn't feel hard, but hated that he had lost his hand, so he immediately ordered someone to bring the eight people he brought back to the hall.

Ye Xingcan moved to the hall of the inn and carefully examined the eight people: the first man was about twenty years old, only said that he was a woodcutter, with some strength, the second man was already more than forty, he was a hunter when he was young, and he knew some boxing and kicking, the three women ranged in age from seventeen to forty, and they were all taking care of the family at home, two old men who had passed the sixtieth year, their hands and feet were already inconvenient, and there was a girl who looked like she was in her teens.

Except for this little girl, Wang Shaoyuan has already made people try the martial arts and pulse power of the seven people one by one, none of them are like the master who escaped, as for the person who hid in the forest and released the dark arrow, he did not have high requirements for strength, it is difficult to say.

Ye Xingcan didn't know how to judge, so he could only arrange all eight of them to be in a nearby inn and monitor them during the day.

Wang Shaoyuan was about to take people away, but he saw the girl timidly come forward, tugged at the corner of his clothes, and said with a raised face: "Big brother, just now you saved my grandmother and took her to the doctor, and I still ...... I didn't thank you. ”

Wang Shaoyuan then remembered that when he found this family, the little girl's grandmother was already seriously ill and unconscious, and the little girl said at that time that her father and mother had the epidemic a few days ago, and there was only one grandmother left in the family. All the way, the little girl has been following carefully behind her.

Wang Shaoyuan felt sorry in his heart, couldn't help but lower his body, took out a silk handkerchief, reached out to help the girl wipe the little face that had been stained into a flower cat, and helped her brush her hair, and said gently: "What's your name?" ”

The little girl saw that although Wang Shaoyuan was masked with a medicine towel, her eyebrows were gentle and amiable, her black eyes were sharp and sharp, and she smiled at herself, like a warm spring, and felt that she had something to rely on, so she couldn't help but reach out and hug Wang Shaoyuan's thighs, and said with tears in her eyes: "Yan'er." ”

Ye Xingcan heard about the situation in Yan'er's family, felt that this child was also pitiful, and saw that she was so dependent on Wang Shaoyuan, so she asked Yan'er to live here with her to facilitate her care.

Yan'er looked up at the sister with the hat, knowing that she was in charge, and before Wang Shaoyuan could speak, she knelt on her knees and bowed deeply.

Ye Xingcan took off her hat, smiled at Yan'er, and only said that she should go with her eldest brother.

Yan'er looked at her sister in front of her blankly, stunned, how could someone be so good-looking.

Along the way, Wang Shaoyuan was accustomed to the reactions of men, women and children when they looked at Ye Xingcan, so he gently took Yan'er's hand and said, "Don't disturb the princess, I'll take you to rest." ”

Yan'er's little hand was wrapped by Wang Shaoyuan's hand, feeling warm and happy, and the small steps of the person were also small, so she jumped up and followed Wang Shaoyuan out of the door, with indescribable joy and joy.

Wang Shaoyuan took Yan'er to the room on the side of the second floor, and ordered someone to go to the street to see if there was still a shop open, and buy a few little girls' change of clothes.

Yan'er stood behind her, seeing Wang Shaoyuan busy, but there was a touch of coldness in her eyes, but it was only a flash in an instant, and she immediately regained her innocence.

When everyone left, Ye Xingcan stayed in the house alone, pacing slowly and thoughtfully.
