Chenyu's calculation was indeed true, and it didn't take long for a strange illness to break out in the border city.

However, in two or three days, the people on the border were infected with poisonous sores and festering wounds, and within one day, they were all over the internal organs, and more than 100 people died.

The border generals sent people to rush to the emperor for 800 miles, so that the emperor could send imperial doctors to the border to treat the victims.

Above the court, Chen Xian read the report and asked the ministers to express their opinions.

Lu Taifu said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is natural to send imperial doctors and recruit people of insight among the people to rush to the border as soon as possible, so as to reduce the number of victims who die of illness as soon as possible!"

The opinion of other old ministers is, "It is not yet possible to find out the source of the disease and the treatment method, so sending people to rush forward is afraid that it will 'lose the army and lose the general', and 'there is no return', it is better to think long-term, find out the cause of the disease and find out the treatment method, it is appropriate!"

Chen Xian knew that some old ministers were just afraid of being sent to the border, afraid that they would 'go and not return', so they said some excuses.

"What about the others?!" Chen Xian asked again.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Mencius has a cloud, 'the people are the most important, the society is secondary, and the monarch is light!' Your Majesty should take the people affected by the disaster on the border as the first priority, and immediately send a doctor with excellent medical skills, whether it is the imperial doctor in the palace or the barefoot Langzhong of the people, as long as they have the ability to cure the victims, Your Majesty should let them try their best! Fang will live up to the love of the border people for His Majesty, and in this way, he can also win the love of the people of the world!" Zhu Yushi said loudly.

As soon as these words came out, the ministers in the palace all talked about it.

Some think it is reasonable and support it; The other part of the old ministers still objected, and said mockingly: "Lord Zhu is right, he really doesn't have a backache when he stands and talks!" In just two days, there were more than 100 deaths and injuries, what a fierce disease, I am afraid that if the doctors arrive, before they find out the cause, they will die there!"

"As an official of the imperial court, the people of the world are our food and clothing parents. How can you ministers be so enlightened!" Zhu Yushi retorted.

"Oh? Since Zhu Yushi loves the people so much, why don't Zhu Yushi lead the imperial doctors to disaster relief? Heal the people?!" One of the old ministers teased.

"If Your Majesty agrees, what if I die at the border? The so-called 'man is inherently dead, or heavier than Mount Tai, or lighter than a feather!' Just like a few, greedy for life and afraid of death, death is also dross!" Zhu Yushi said sarcastically to several people.

"Hey! Who are you scolding......" An old minister pointed to Zhu Yushi and asked.

"Shut up! When is it, when people's lives are at stake, but you are here to quarrel? What is the crime?!" Chen Xian said angrily to everyone.

Everyone below was too frightened to say anything more.

"Since they have all spoken their opinions! And the widow means to first isolate the range of activities of the people on the border, and prevent them from fleeing in all directions, first, for their illness, and second, for the sake of other people. And it is also necessary for a brave and far-sighted person who recommended himself to go to the border to appease the victims and rescue them from fire and water!" Chen Xian said.

"Your Majesty is wise!" The crowd shouted.

"Since other people have worries, the widow will send Zhu Yushi to go, if the disaster relief is meritorious, after returning to the dynasty, the official will be promoted to two levels, and ten treasures will be given. Do other Aiqing have any objections?!"

Although the others were about to be promoted, they were afraid of illness and did not dare to go, so no one objected.

So, after retiring from the court that day, Zhu Yushi received the emperor's order, hurriedly returned to his mansion to get some close-fitting clothes and commonly used things, and was ordered to rush to the border.

This border is the southwest of Chen, the junction of Chen, Dangxiang, Jiaozhi, and Funan, near Nanzhao, and it is also the place where Chen Xian suppressed the rebellion.

It is also a transit point for trade and commerce between various countries, and it is hot all year round and humid all day long.

It was originally a person from a fishing village, and one of the fishermen who fished at sea all the year round was first infected, at first he thought that he had been poisoned by something in the water, and then more and more began to contract this disease, from the gray-haired old man to the newborn baby, once there were red sores on the body, within half a day, the whole body would definitely fester, and finally die in pain.

In two or three days, there were more than 100 people in this fishing village, and in the end only three or four people survived, and at the same time, other villages began to have this disease, there was no fixed group of people, no fixed range.

Some villagers even thought that they had inadvertently angered the gods of the sea, and that the gods had blamed them.

For a time, burn wormwood, boil decoction, dance the gods, and ask the Buddha to worship the gods...... Everything.

I invited many famous local doctors to take a look, but they couldn't tell what strange disease they had, and even a few doctors contracted this disease and died.

The villagers were even more frightened, living by the sea, and they all said that the disease came from the sea, and there was nowhere to hide, and some young and strong people wanted to flee inland, but were stopped by the officers and soldiers.

The villagers were crying and shouting, and they didn't know what to do!

Zhu Yushi traveled day and night to the most severely infected village near Nanzhao, and ordered all villagers to be blocked from entering and exiting, and all trade was suspended.

He also personally asked several doctors who had seen the illness of the victims and had a general understanding of the cause.

He immediately wrote a letter detailing the situation here, and sent someone to speed up to Jiankang and hand it over to the emperor.

He also asked the doctor who brought him to take a look, but the doctor had never seen such a strange disease, and shook his head and sighed, he had never got along, so he had to temporarily test one medicine after another!

After a day, the situation of the infection is still not optimistic, and even about a dozen local officers and soldiers have unfortunately contracted the disease.

Chen Xian received a letter from Zhu Yushi, and his brows tightened.

Previously, many ministers of the DPRK and China still suggested abandoning a few local villages, and instead of telling them to spread the disease, it was better to endure the pain and 'give up' them, "It is better to set a fire and burn all those people, and burn them completely, and this sudden plague will be gone!"

"It's so cruel, it's brutal! If it is not the inconspicuous border fishermen who are indecent, but your relatives and friends, is it possible that you also plan to be so cold-eyed? Mrs. Lu said.

Among them, there was a round field that said: "Master Taifu is kind, we are ashamed of ourselves...... Shame on yourself."

And Chen Xian ordered a heavy reward for famous doctors, who can cure this strange disease, if they can give a good prescription, they can give a thousand gold!

As a result, for a while, many folk Langzhong were willing to give prescriptions!

However, after being sent to the border, after being screened by the imperial doctor, he tried all the possible effects, but there was no cure.

Chen Xian summoned Chenyu to the Qinzheng Hall every day to ask him about the illness and if he knew the source and how to save people.

Chen Yu said that the only thing he could predict was that this disease would not hurt more people, it would be limited to the southern border, and there would be a large-scale outbreak of this disease in other places, and then it would be the key to cure!

Chen Xian also asked Chenyu to divinate the day and prepare to sacrifice to the heavens to pray to the gods.

Afterwards, Gonggong Zhao sent Chenyu out of the Qinzheng Palace.

went down the stairs and bumped into Xiao Mingyue and Amber who came to deliver osmanthus cakes.

Seeing that Chenyu was also frowning, Xiao Mingyue couldn't help asking, "Your Majesty called you here, or is it for the disease in the southern border?!"

"Don't hide it from the county lord, it's for this! Your Majesty is very sad, and the villain's ability is limited, so he can't always solve problems for His Majesty!" Chenyu said with some self-reproach.

"I think it's going to rain this day, and if it rains, everything will be fine!" Xiao Mingyue looked up at the sky and sighed.

"Your Majesty is planning to go to the sacrifice!" Chenyu said.

"You must have a way!" Xiao Mingyue said to Chenyu with a smile.

"Although I am a national teacher, I am not a god, but I can't do this thing of curing diseases and saving people. I'm ashamed!" Chenyu lowered his head and said.

"I want you to help me divination, I know my fate, I want to go to the southern land, I have read many medical books, know many good prescriptions, maybe I can help!" Xiao Mingyue said to Chenyu.

Chenyu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then raised his head and said to Xiao Mingyue: "That place is very dangerous, if the county lord goes, I'm afraid it won't be safe!" In short, the villain knows that this disaster will not affect more people, and the county lord can rest assured, why bother to go in person!"

Xiao Mingyue stopped, took a step forward and said, "Even if you can save someone, it's good, human life is at stake, I want to try!"

Chenyu nodded and said to Xiao Mingyue: "Since the county lord insists on this, then the villain will go back and divinate the good fortune for the county lord!"

"Thank you so much!" Xiao Mingyue said.

Then he said goodbye to Chenyu and went to the Qinzheng Palace.

Chen Yu returned to the astrology building, looked at the astrolabe in his hand, sighed and said, "Only this time, it doesn't matter if you don't interfere." It's just that if you insist on interfering, it will be a blessing and a curse! If something happens to you, what will happen to the world in the future? Who will stop the horse chaos in the future!"

Xiao Mingyue returned to her palace, and took out two medical books, "The Book of Materia Medica" and "Jin Kui (guì) Yaolu", and picked out some strange diseases and prescriptions to read.

Amber sat next to her and held the lamp for Xiao Mingyue and said, "Miss, are you really going to the south?" Wouldn't it be too dangerous? The slave and maid heard that even the doctors and soldiers were infected!"

Xiao Mingyue said to Amber: "This is called 'knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, and preferring to go to the tiger mountains'! As long as we are willing to work hard, there will definitely be a way!"

"That slave is going with the young lady!" Amber said.

"Aren't you afraid?!" Xiao Mingyue asked.

"With Miss, no matter how dangerous it is, I'm not afraid!" Amber said.

"And us! All with the county lord!"

I saw Qingwen, Yunzhu, and Caiwei all coming over.

"This must be dangerous, how can I affect everyone!"

"We are all the lady-in-waiting of the county lord. A person who is born as a county lord, and a ghost who dies is a county lord, 'swords, mountains and fires, not afraid!'" Yunzhu said.

"The slaves and maids are gone, so they can take care of the county master!" Qingwen said.

"I've heard that there are many rare and exotic fruits in the south, so it's time to try them!" Cai Wei said.
