Qi Ning personally commanded, and there was the assistance of the Yulin Army in this matter, so all kinds of things were done smoothly, and it didn't take too long, in front of the door of the Tian family's medicine store, six cauldrons were erected, in order to prevent God from suddenly snowing, so a tent was specially set up, so that the six big iron pots would not be disturbed by the heavy snow. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At both ends of the street, there are already guards of Yulin elite soldiers.

The Tian family medicine store tried its best to cooperate, and sent all the medicinal materials needed by Qi Ning from the medicine warehouse, after all, the Tian family medicine store is the number one medicine store in the capital, and there are indeed not a few medicinal materials stored.

The iron pot was on fire, in order to avoid other accidents, Qi Ning asked several gentlemen and men who knew how to cook medicinal materials in the Tianjia Pharmacy to be responsible for boiling the medicine, and in addition, he sent more than 20 Yulin cavalry to notify the pesticide application points in various streets and alleys of Dongcheng.

Qi Ning knew very well in his heart that there were many high-ranking officials and gentry living in Dongcheng, and it was inevitable that there would be infected people in these deep mansion compounds, but they naturally would not easily send people to Nanhe Lane, but they were afraid that there would be many mansions that would lock people up in their homes and isolate them from others.

The epidemic spread very widely, although it started from the beggar gang, it seems to have nothing to do with the dignitaries and nobles, but the disciples of the beggar gang are already very mobile in the capital, and it happens that the Qinhuai River is also a place where people come and go, and many dignitaries and nobles have many lingering on the Qinhuai River, which makes the two classes who did not want to do it suffer from the invasion of the epidemic.

Before applying the medicine, Qi Ning even asked people to write the words "medicine on behalf of the sky" on a yellow brocade cloth, standing around the tent, no matter which direction it came from, you could see the banner waving in the wind.

The emperor is the Son of Heaven, and administering medicine on behalf of Heaven is naturally administering medicine on behalf of the Son of Heaven.

The flames were raging under the six large iron pots, and Qi Ning asked people to prepare buckets, but whenever there was a medicinal juice boiled out, it was put into the bucket.

As Qi Ning expected, as soon as the news came out, the infected people in Dongcheng immediately rushed to the Tianjia medicine store, and there were a lot of them, many of whom were family members, sending their own infected patients here.

Both ends of the street were blocked, and according to Qi Ning's instructions, people were not let in easily.

"Listen to it, if you are not infected, you will stand outside the bench and will not enter." The soldiers guarding at the street entrance pointed to the two benches in front of them, "Those who are infected, line up to come in, the Marquis of Jinyi has an order, each person has a bowl of antidote, and they cannot be brought out, this is given by the emperor, and the Hou Ye administers medicine on behalf of the sky." ”

"The old man is Shaoqing of Taichang Temple, let the old man in first." More and more people rushed over at the corner of the street, some were helped over, some were simply carried over, and the illness of the epidemic virus was also mild and severe, an old official in his 60s squeezed forward, and two young and strong people behind him carried a pair of stretchers, wrapped in brocade quilts, and one person curled up and covered his head inside.

"Wait a minute, let Lao Tzu go first." A burly man was squeezed in the back, the red spots on his face were as big as copper coins, it seemed that the epidemic was very serious, and his voice was still loud: "Lao Tzu is the former Yundu Lieutenant of the army, what are you a Shaoqing of Taichang Temple?" "Pushing and shoving to squeeze into the street.

That Taichang Shaoqing's face changed slightly, but he sneered: "Captain Yundu? The old man is rare, there must always be a first come, first come, the old man arrives before you, you have to be the back. ”

Yun Du Wei is indeed one level higher than Tai Chang Shaoqing, but Tai Chang Shaoqing does not deal with the army, and this Tai Chang Shaoqing does not give face to Yun Du Wei.

There was a commotion in all directions, but the elite soldiers of Yulin were all holding their sabers, watching coldly, and not letting people pass.

Suddenly, I heard a voice from behind: "Get out of the way, don't get in the way." In the crowd, five or six tall and strong men savagely opened the crowd, and forced one person to squeeze forward, and the Yundu Lieutenant was knocked out, and he didn't look at people, and turned around and scolded: "Which dog-mother doesn't have long eyes?" ”

But I only saw those big men escorting a boy brother in, the boy brother was dressed in brocade and jade belt, draped in a dark purple coat, and there were red spots on his face, but he was much smaller than that Yun Duwei, and stared at Yun Duwei coldly and said, "Who do you say is raised by a dog-mother?" Raising his foot, he kicked it over according to the Yundu Lieutenant, and scolded: "Are you fucking looking for death?" ”

The crowd was crowded, and Na Yun Duwei was kicked hard, but fortunately, he was strong and strong, but it didn't matter, this Yun Duwei was not angry, but smiled and said: "It turns out ...... It turned out to be Dou Gongzi, but I didn't have long eyes, Dou ...... Master Dou has a lot, don't be like me. ”

In the crowd, although many people didn't know who this son-in-law was, a small number of people still recognized it, and some people had already whispered: "It's the eldest son of Dou Shangshu of the household." ”

The person who came was Dou Lianzhong.

Hubu Shangshu is one of the six halls, is the second rank of the court official, although Dou Lianzhong has no honor, but he is the second rank of the dynasty, and his people are also notorious in Beijing, who dares to offend this person, crowded on the side have stepped back, just like Dou Lianzhong has dog shit on his body, no one wants to get into trouble.

Dou Lianzhong snorted coldly, and then squeezed forward, and the two Yulin elite soldiers stopped sideways, Dou Lianzhong said: "Is there an antidote here?" Hurry up and let me in. ”

"Master Hou has an order, and no one is allowed to trespass until he has an order." The Yulin soldier said expressionlessly.

Dou Lianzhong frowned and said, "Hou Ye, which Hou Ye?" Do you know who I am? My father is Dou Shangshu, you really ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, and you dare to stop me? ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard a burst of laughter, and a person walked over and said with a smile: "Isn't this Dou Gongzi?" Haven't you seen you in a while? Hey, Dou Gongzi, what's wrong with your face? Are you also poisoned? "One person carried his hands behind his back, and Shi Shiran came over, it was Qi Ning.

Dou Lianzhong was stunned when he saw Qi Ning, and couldn't help but say, "Yes....... Are you here to arrange the application? ”

Qi Ning stepped forward, didn't answer first, glanced at it, and found that most of the people who came were well-dressed, many of them were brocade robes, and a group of people in coarse cloth and ugly clothes were far behind, and they didn't rush forward to squeeze over, smiled, and then arched his hand to the sky, and said: "The emperor has a decree to give medicine to save the people, and this marquis is ordered to do an errand and take charge of this matter." ”

Dou Lianzhong immediately put on a smiling face and said with a smile: "It seems that the emperor is wise and knowledgeable, and the Marquis of Jinyi is shrewd and capable, and such a major event should be presided over by the Hou Ye." He leaned forward and said softly: "Master Hou, if you don't let me go in first, I will be grateful to Dou when I turn back." We are all acquaintances, how about Master Hou give me a thin noodle? ”

Qi Ning knew that this Dou Lianzhong often lingered on the Qinhuai River, and he was not surprised to see that he was also infected with the epidemic virus, and said with a smile: "It's easy to say, the emperor ordered to use medicine to save people, so naturally no one can be missed." He blinked his eyes and said with a smile: "Gongzi Dou, the antidote has been boiled, you can take the medicine when you go in, do you really want to be the first to come in?" ”

"Since it is the emperor who gives the medicine, of course it is the medicine to get rid of the disease." Dou Lianzhong hurriedly said: "Brother Qi, you let me in now, and I'll set the table and banquet when I turn around, thank you well." ”

Qi Ning laughed, and then said: "It's not impossible to let you come in first, but the ugly words are ahead, does Dou Gongzi know how much silver a bowl of this antidote is?" ”

Dou Lianzhong was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "No, just now...... Just now I heard that the emperor gives medicine for free, does not accept cash, and ......! He leaned closer to Qi Ning's ear and whispered: "Besides, these medicinal materials, it's not the household department to compensate for the silver, after all, it's my father who pays the silver." ”

"That's not right." Qi Ning shook his head and said: "One yard is one yard, now is the present, what to do with the future, it's not my turn to care." After thinking for a while, he stretched out five fingers and said, "This number, you go to take the medicine first, for the sake of us being acquaintances, others can only take one bowl, how much do you want to take!" ”

"Five taels of silver?" Dou Lianzhong was not verbose, turned around and said, "Take five taels of silver." ”

Qi Ning laughed and said, "Gongzi Dou, are you looking down on yourself, or are you looking down on me?" If it's five taels of silver, shall I speak to you? ”

Since Dou Lianzhong was infected, he knew that this epidemic virus could kill people, these two days were really distracted, and today he learned that there was an antidote here, so he ran over here without saying a word, Qi Ning stretched out his hand to ask for silver, Dou Lianzhong knew that this guy was deliberately ripping bamboo, but his life was at stake, where did he care about a little silver, and hurriedly asked: "How much does it cost?" Fifty taels? Won't you want me to have a bowl of antidote for five hundred taels? Then I'd rather not take the medicine. ”

Qi Ning said with a smile: "Turn around and leave immediately, Dou Gongzi, for the sake of our friendship, I won't hide it from you, there are thousands of people infected with the epidemic virus in the capital, but the medicinal materials for boiling the antidote are very scarce, but they are not all over the street, I estimate that in the end, I am afraid that there are still many people who do not understand the medicine." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Dou Lianzhong, but also the other people around the side also changed color, and they no longer cared about the others, and squeezed up one after another.

"Okay, five hundred taels of silver, I want it." Dou Lianzhong was suddenly a little flustered, and immediately said, "I'll get you the silver right away, and you let me in." ”

In fact, if you really want to talk about it, the cost of a bowl of antidote doesn't even cost a penny of silver, but Dou Lianzhong cares about his name, and five hundred taels of silver is not too big a lot for him, he can bear it, and compared to his life, five hundred taels of silver is really nothing.

Qi Ning shook his head and said, "I'll just say it directly, since Brother Dou wants to detoxify, he doesn't have five thousand taels of silver, this matter is really difficult to do." ”

"You're .......!" Dou Lianzhong gasped, "Qi Ning, are you selling antiques?" A bowl of broken medicine, do you want me 5,000 taels? ”

"Brother Dou, be cautious when you speak." Qi Ning sank his face, "This is the emperor's medicine, it is the emperor's hard work to find the prescription, you said this is a broken medicine, where is the emperor?" He said loudly: "You should not have heard it, Dou Gongzi just lost his words, and he is by no means sincere, so don't spread it." ”

Dou Lianzhong's face suddenly turned blue, and when he saw that Qi Ning was serious, he immediately clenched his fists, and he was extremely angry in his heart, and he couldn't wait to punch him.
