"Whew......" Xiao Yuexi let out a long breath.

Although the situation on her side has not yet been completely stabilized, His Majesty the Emperor's side seems to have stabilized.

Xiao Yuexi unconsciously hooked the corners of her mouth, raised her eyes and asked, "How are the patients who took the medicine last night?" ”

Li Ran: "After the second pair of drugs went down, it was controlled, but most of the poisoning was too serious, and the damage to the organs could not be raised in a moment and a half, and it was ......."

Xiao Yuexi looked at him with a complicated expression, and said in her heart: "The medicine for recuperation is not cheap, right?" ”

This is a bit difficult, some medicinal materials are expensive because they are really rare, grow slowly, or do not grow at all in China...... It is true that silver is needed to turn around, these are ordinary people, after this battle, not to mention medicine, they can't afford to eat, and they can only rely on the conscience of the court to live.

Perhaps some officials of the previous dynasty had anticipated this situation a long time ago, so they wrote a letter asking for the so-called "once and for all" method, right? It's a pity that Mu Yun's light temperament can't do it even when he sees the people die, let alone send them on the road with his own hands.

Li Ran gritted his teeth a little unwillingly, and then said with emotion: "My Yelan country is vast and rich, and the national strength is at its peak, but in terms of medicinal materials, it is indeed not as good as the tortoiseshell country. ”

Xiao Yuexi smiled a little bitterly, and muttered: "Everything has pros and cons......"

The country of tortoiseshell, at best, is only a little stronger than the small border countries in the north and south, with not many countries and fewer people, in addition to the myth that the lord of the country is not corrupt, but also the medical techniques and medicinal materials can be famous all over the world. Legend has it that the lords of the past dynasties have the ability of the living dead, flesh and bones, and although the ordinary people are poor, they are all unparalleled medical masters outside. Tortoiseshell has a lot of herbs in the mountains of China, and many medicinal herbs that don't grow outside can be seen everywhere in them like cabbage, which also lays the foundation for their wealth.

Wouldn't such a small country be remembered?

Of course, from Yelan to various small countries, there is no one who is not worried.

However, the most amazing place is here, there is a circle of natural smoke miasma outside the country of tortoiseshell, which wraps the tortoiseshell country into it, and from a distance, the tortoiseshell country is like an overture located in a fairyland, ethereal and sacred. But the smoke miasma didn't want to look so harmless, as long as it walked in, no one was spared, and within three steps, it would definitely bleed and die of poison.

For many years, no one from the outside world has developed an antidote to deal with it, but the people of the tortoiseshell country can come and go freely in this natural barrier, and regularly come out to sell some rare herbs from the outside world, because some things are too precious, and the outside world cannot offend this mysterious country because of a little petty profit, and over time, a faint peace has been reached.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Yuexi suddenly said, "I'm going to help with you, isn't there not enough manpower?" ”

There weren't many volunteers, and Chengfeng detained a few more interrogations, and there were even fewer left. Huang Lian sent a few maids, but they didn't look very old, and it was no problem to boil medicine and clean, but it was a little embarrassing to take care of the patient who vomited blood.

Thinking of Huang Lian, Xiao Yuexi couldn't help but say again: "That Lord Huang, you have done this step, the suspicion should be cleared, right?" ”

"Not really! I heard from the people on Chengfeng's side that he went to the garrison camp to borrow people this time, and he was not less crowded. Li Ran paused, and then said, "Let's go, aren't you going to help?" At this time, you can shake in front of them a little longer, and then you can also block the mouths of those people in the court. ”

Xiao Yuexi did not follow directly to the epidemic center, but turned around to find Chengfeng.

He was still worried about the volunteers, and when he saw her coming, he hurriedly saluted and greeted her.

Xiao Yuexi waved her hand, and where her eyes swept over, there was a complaint.

"We're just here to help, we don't know anything else, why are you holding on to us?"

"That's it! When Lord Huang transferred us, he didn't say that there was such a tiring job. ”

"Waiting, sleepless, and ending up like this, is there still a royal law?"

……

Xiao Yuexi was so noisy by them, looking at it this way, these people clearly had a little bit of everything, and they simply didn't bother to talk nonsense with them, and said directly to Chengfeng: "Don't talk nonsense with them, let people send them to Lord Huang's mansion, and together with that scholar, they can be used as bait and bait, and if they can't be bait, they will wait for the epidemic situation here to stabilize." ”

Chengfeng nodded, he didn't want to spend it with these people for a long time, and raised his hand to let these people tie up and take them away, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xiao Yuexi: "Madam, I heard Mr. Li say that you were poisoned because Ling Zhengzhi took the wine from me?" ”

"Hmm," Xiao Yuexi nodded. "I'm here to ask you this, is the flask still there?"

Chengfeng: "It's strange to say, my subordinates remember that Ling Zhengzhi did return it to me, but I couldn't find it when I looked for it later." However, the wine in it is often drunk by subordinates, I found a wine jug and filled some of it, you see, is there any difference? ”

As he spoke, he handed Xiao Yuexi a wine jug. Xiao Yuexi pulled out the stopper and smelled it, the familiar spicy fragrance spread, it was the wine that night, yes, there was no difference at first glance. As for what is the difference between the two, it is necessary to bring both things to the front and compare.

Xiao Yuexi hadn't encountered this situation for a long time, and when she returned the wine jug to Chengfeng, her face was very ugly.

After a while, Xiao Yuexi sneered: "Now his suspicion is even more unclear......

Chengfeng didn't hear clearly: "Madam, what did you say?" ”

"It's fine!" Xiao Yuexi came back to her senses and said calmly: "Go and settle those people, and then transfer all the people who can be mobilized to help control the epidemic." ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it!"

After explaining, Xiao Yuexi did not dare to waste a moment into the volunteer team.

The condition of the first patients who took the medication stabilized, and finally gave the disheartened patients a glimmer of hope, and the patients cooperated a lot in the subsequent treatment.

"Auntie, this medicine may be a little uncomfortable to drink, don't be afraid, we are all here to guard, it will be fine." Xiao Yuexi said as she lifted the old woman.

The old woman was frightened and muttered, "I can't help it, Mrs. Xiao, this is this...... How can you do this yourself, woman, this ......?"

Xiao Yuexi smiled at her, and said indifferently: "I didn't come all the way to play, I really wanted to do something for the emperor, just because I was afraid of you like this, so I didn't dare to confess my identity to everyone before." Come, auntie, you drink the medicine first. ”

Chengfeng quickly sent all the volunteers from last night back to Hoang Lien Mansion to be locked up, and the idle people came to help and began to treat the second batch of patients.

Another day passed, and the twenty patients survived unharmed, and everyone cheered together with the sick people, as if they had finally found the light and found the direction in the middle of the day.

At the same time, the news that the epidemic had been solved spread everywhere, from the capital to the various epidemic areas. Li Ran's prescription was also sent to various places, and the aimless group of people finally had the strength to rescue with the prescription, and a few days later, the epidemic was fully stabilized, and people continued to turn the crisis into safety.

The people behind the poison are quietly hiding and nowhere to be found, and the epidemic can be stabilized so quickly, and they also have the credit for their sudden withdrawal.

Xiao Yuexi's premonition was not very good, and she instinctively felt that they would not be so kind, and suddenly stopped, perhaps holding back a bigger bad idea. As soon as there was some easing here, she sent all of them out to pay attention to the wind, and the rest is easy to say, but the people in the epidemic area can't withstand any more wind and waves.

On this day, Xiao Yuexi was helping Li Ran pick herbs, when she suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, and looked back.

A few days have passed, although she is busy, her body has recovered quickly, although she can't eat and sleep well, she is still very energetic. Her cold gaze showed a hint of relief when she saw the person coming: "Ling Zhengzhi." ”

Ling Suihan slowly approached, gave a salute, and said, "Mrs. Xiao, can you take a step to speak?" ”

Li Ran raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, but he didn't say anything. But the eyes are naked, and he complains: Which onion do you dare to let her borrow a step from you?

No one paid attention to his provocative gaze, Xiao Yuexi looked down at her female appearance, looked up at him, and said with a smile: "Do you think the current situation is convenient?" ”

Ling Suihan glanced at the small pile of cleanly trimmed herbs on the table in front of her, and said nothing. Since she revealed her identity, the people around her have been respecting her, consciously or unconsciously, Rao is now doing the work of a medicine boy, and she is also sitting on the main seat, Li Ran and Su Su can only be reduced to sitting on a small bench.

Su Su is a woman who is okay, Li Ran is tall after all, and the picture of sitting on a small bench and trimming herbs is not to mention how aggrieved she is.

After a long time, Ling Suihan said: "It's Weichen who has trespassed." ”

Xiao Yuexi shrugged her shoulders indifferently, lowered her head again and was busy with the work in her hands, and said slowly: "If you have something to say, it just so happens that there are too many medicinal materials sent today to clean up, so you can also help." ”

Li Ran immediately gave him a small bench.

Ling Suihan's gaze moved away from the pile of medicinal herbs and fell on Xiao Yuexi's hand. Her hands are very beautiful, ten fingers are pointed, slender and fair, and at this time she is pasted by the juice of medicinal herbs mixed with soil, she is not too dirty, her face continues to fiddle without changing color, looking at the skillful technique, it is obvious that she has become accustomed to doing it these days.

Ling Suihan did it and got a bunch of medicinal materials from Li Ran, Su Su said a little trivial on the side: "Ling Zheng must be careful, these medicines are not easy to come by, and they can't be wasted." ”

Ling Suihan: "......"

After a while, Ling Suihan seemed to remember the purpose of this trip, and said lightly: "Mrs. Xiao, Wei Chen has not asked before, what did Ye Wanxiao say after returning to Beijing?" ”

"It was said that he received your secret letter, and there were officials here in Binzhou who colluded with mountain bandits to embezzle disaster relief funds and asked for support." Xiao Yuexi didn't lift her eyelids, and answered quickly.
