Under the impetus of Yang Yiqing and them, Zhengde finally asked hesitantly: "Duan Aiqing, if you don't want to go, I will never be reluctant, you tell me the truth now, do you go or not?" ”

Duan Fei replied without hesitation: "Weichen is willing to go to Shaanxi, but I don't know if Lord Qian is willing." ”

Qian Rujing replied stubbornly: "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to go to Shaanxi to prevent and control the epidemic with Lord Duan, please make an order from the emperor." ”

Zhengde sighed lightly and said: "Tribulation sees the truth, and the hearts of the people are seen over time, the two Qing families stepped forward when the national disaster was at the head, which can be described as loyal and brave, and on the day when your heroes return to Beijing, I will definitely celebrate for you, Yang Aiqing, Zhang Rui, you draft the holy decree to go." ”

After taking the will, Duan Fei said goodbye to Zhengde and returned to Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi first, the incident happened suddenly, there were many things to explain, and the matter of collecting military songs and opening a 'Public Security Detective University' had to be postponed again.

There is another big thing, that is, why did Shaanxi's Jinyiwei intelligence network not send back the news of the acne epidemic in advance? Could there be something else going on?

Duan Fei summoned the big leaders of Jinyiwei and held a meeting together, Duan Fei ordered Xie Zhijun to stay in Jinyiwei, and was fully responsible for the daily affairs of Jinyiwei and the affairs of reinforcing Shaanxi, Wang Zuo of the Ministry of Internal Intelligence was busy, he must first investigate the mystery of the failure of the Jinyiwei system in Shaanxi, Hua Ming and Jiao Xu stayed in the capital at any time to listen to the dispatch, this time Jiao Yang led the team to protect Duan Fei, and the twelve King Kong were still with the team to guard.

After arranging the itinerary and plan, Duan Fei returned home, and seeing that Guan Xiaohan was still not there, he stomped his feet and instructed Xiaohuan: "When I see your young lady, ask her to come to see me, and the others come back and ask them to wait in the flower hall." ”

Duan Fei plunged into the study, and after more than an hour, he finally came out of the study, holding a book in his hand, and walked towards the flower hall excitedly.

Everyone had been waiting for him in the flower hall for a while, except for Guan Xiaohan and Shi Bin, they all rushed back, and when they saw Duan Fei coming, they asked, "My lord, what is the matter?" In such a hurry to recruit us back? ”

Duan Fei ordered people to retreat left and right, and then said: "Something is wrong, there is a pox epidemic in Shaanxi, hundreds of people have died, the emperor sent me and Lord Qian Rujing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, to Shaanxi to sit in Shaanxi for disaster relief, if you are willing to go with me, raise your hand, and I will not be reluctant to go if you don't want to go." ”

"Ahh When everyone heard that it was smallpox, they were all stunned for a moment, this thing is not easy to handle, the invisible epidemic cannot be prevented, even if the army of millions goes, it is difficult to guarantee that the whole army will not be wiped out, Duan Fei asked them this, it was obviously a test for them, although they understood that this was a test, but at the moment of life and death, everyone still hesitated.

"Brother Fei, why did you receive such a troublesome task?" Shi Bin frowned.

"That's right, you don't have to wait for acne, even if your skills are world-beating, you will die if you get it, Brother Fei, my family is just such a single seedling, I have to discuss it with my grandfather before I can decide whether to go or not."

Duan Fei nodded and said, "Okay, anyway, it's not to investigate the case, anyone can choose not to go, but for the time being, everyone can't spread the news, and I believe your grandfather won't say it, but others can't be an exception, do you have a decision?" ”

"I'll go." Guo Wei said: "If adults dare to go, I dare to go, what about you?" ”

"I'll go too," Shi Bin said helplessly: "Brother Fei is so good to me, how can I be afraid of dying at this time?" Brother Fei, you are willing to take on this task, there should be a foolproof plan, right? ”

Duan Fei shook his head and said: "There is no perfect plan, you don't know yet, when the news came to the palace today, even the emperor and the six Shangshu were panicked, Shi Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, wanted to take the opportunity to rectify me, saying that I caused a disaster from the sky, so I gave him a few words, but I didn't expect the old man to be angry to death, and then Yang Yiqing grabbed the pigtail, I had to go out to Shaanxi to fight the disease and relieve the disaster, they clearly hoped that I would not come back in Shaanxi, you still have a choice, if you don't want to go, you can stay, I won't blame you." ”

"I'll go." Jiang Jun smiled and said: "When I traveled thousands of miles to Jiangxi, I had already made up my mind to follow the adult, and now it has not changed, since the adult is destined to go to Shaanxi, I naturally have to follow, Hong Bang, your choice should not be wrong, right?" ”

Hong Bang said: "Well, I'll go too, my lord, you can tell us the specific situation now." ”

Duan Fei nodded with satisfaction and said: "Very good, although the reasons for your agreement to go together are different, but I am very satisfied, the specific situation is that I have already had an idea to go to Shaanxi, and there will be no danger to everyone, of course, you must be strict with others, tomorrow morning the emperor will personally send us off, you all pretend to be sad on my face, go to death as home, and when we come back, the emperor's reward will be more generous." ”

Shi Bin smiled and said, "I knew that Brother Fei you must have a perfect plan, Brother Fei, can you reveal a little bit first?" ”

Duan Fei said with a smile: "My perfect strategy comes from the book in my hand, there is a cure for acne in the book, who told you not to read books, learn more." ”

Shi Bin and the others looked curiously at the book in Duan Fei's hand, but Duan Fei mysteriously put it in his pocket and ordered: "Everyone is not allowed to bring their female dependents here, you pack up and leave tomorrow morning, Yang Sen, you go back and discuss with your grandfather, if he agrees to let you go, you can pack up and leave together tomorrow morning." ”

"Huh? Don't bring your dependents? Brother Fei, don't you even bring a maid? Shi Bin was surprised.

Duan Fei said: "Of course I don't bring it, once I get smallpox, even if I survive, it's a pockmarked face, who wants to break the girl's face, I don't bring them is just to show the enemy to be weak, don't bring it, you must not bring it, it's useless for anyone to intercede." ”

Shi Bin and the others left in a daze, and then Menzi came to report: "My lord, Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Zhang Zilin, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Wang Shouren, the secretary of the Ministry of War, Fei Hong, the secretary of the Ministry of Households, and Qian Rujing, the secretary of the Criminal Department, came together, where did the Lord greet them?" ”

Duan Fei was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood why they came, and ordered: "Send someone to prepare tea and fruits, all of them are the best, just greet them in this flower hall." ”

Duan Fei personally greeted the five Shangshu to the flower hall, the tea and fruits were quickly brought out, and Yang Yiqing said: "Lord Duan, you should understand the reason why we came to your house, please don't be polite, hold back the people, we have something to explain." ”

Duan Fei said with a smile: "The five Shangshu came to the cold house together, Duan Fei is very honored, Xiaohuan, you all go down, guard the door, and no one is allowed to approach." ”

After the maid and servant retreated, Duan Fei smiled and said, "If you have any advice, please tell me, Duan Fei listened." ”

Yang Yiqing took a breath and said solemnly: "Lord Duan, no matter what you think, I have no intention of sending you to Shaanxi with the intention of harming me, if I am twenty years younger, I will definitely ask the order to go in person, although the acne is menacing, but since the Bianliang Battle of the Jin Kingdom more than a hundred years ago, the acne has rarely appeared, and even if it appears, it will be quickly extinguished, do you know why?" ”

Duan Fei said: "This is because there are already certain precautions, I just came back and flipped through the medical book, and found that there is a kind of 'pox' technique, which can prevent smallpox infection." ”

Yang Yiqing said approvingly: "Lord Duan is willing to work hard to turn the book, I am relieved, you are right, the technique of planting pox can indeed prevent and treat acne, but it is not a foolproof strategy, first of all, human pox is hard to find, there is usually no seed to plant, once the acne is found to spread, the number of patients is already thousands, and it is useless to plant people who have already fallen ill, and secondly, it is dangerous to plant pox, as far as I know, there are thousands of pox, there are always two or three who die of disease, and the dead will become a new pathogen, so this pox technique must be cautious. ”

The pox mentioned by Yang Yiqing is to use the concentrated water of a patient who has been infected with smallpox to dip it in a cotton swab and then stuff it into the nostrils of the pox person to infect the pox person, or grind the pox scab finely and blow it into the nose with a silver tube; Or take off the underwear of a person suffering from acne and put it on a healthy person to infect it. In short, the method of preventing smallpox by producing antibodies by the above method has been at least since the Song Dynasty.
