When Zhao Hai saw Dongfang Bai coming, he naturally had a bottom in his heart, and immediately showed a smile on his face.

"Oriental Divine Doctor, don't come unharmed!" Zhao Hai said with a smile.

"I am in this Chengming Palace, in the future, you can enter and exit at will, without notification."

Dongfang Bai stroked his beard and smiled, and he also felt very respectful of Zhao Hai, the king, "Your Majesty said that it was funny, if it wasn't for the urgency of the situation this time, how could I, Dongfang Bai, be such a rude person?" ”

"Your Majesty, I'll talk about the important things first, and the chatter can be talked about later."

Zhao Hai nodded, "What the Oriental Divine Doctor said is right. ”

"In the case of the plague, I have issued an order to seal down the counties where the plague occurred, strictly control them, and prevent those who carry the pathogen from wandering around, so as to minimize the possibility and risk of transmission."

"Now, I have sent people to deal with these matters, and the first group of people to go are the imperial doctors in my palace, and I have dispatched half of the people to go."

"Still, I'm not worried about them, and I want to ask your opinion."

Dongfang Bai pondered for a moment, "Your Majesty, before I came, the old man already knew something about the plague situation along the Yangtze River. ”

"So far, although it is said to be the plague, no one knows exactly what caused it."

"It's not even the plague."

"The old man needs to go to the front line in person, and after seeing those sick patients, the old man can determine what the problem is, so that he can prescribe the right medicine."

"It's better for the old man to leave now, so as not to worsen the situation."

Dongfang Bai said, and wanted to leave.

When Zhao Hai heard this, he hurriedly grabbed Dongfang Bai's sleeve and said, "Dongfang Divine Doctor, don't worry. ”

"It's very dangerous for you to go, and I still have a few things to explain to you, and at the same time I want to give you horses and personnel for you to call on."

When Dongfang Bai heard this, he immediately arched his hand and said, "Since this is the case, then thank Your Majesty." ”

Zhao Hai returned to the place where he usually handled government affairs, and took out a letter from the large cabinet next to him.

"This letter, Oriental Divine Doctor, you take it, when the time comes, go to Jiangzuo, and go to the Zhang family, the most famous person in Jiangzuo."

"They are the big family with the most power in that place and the most people who can mobilize, when the time comes, you can show the letter to the Zhang family, and they will help you."

"At the same time, all your expenses along the way, as well as protective measures, will be reimbursed by me, so you can just do it."

When Dongfang Bai heard this, he also felt a burst of emotion in his heart, and immediately clasped his fists and said to Zhao Hai: "Your Majesty's grace, Dongfang Bai is toothless and unforgettable." ”

Zhao Hai nodded, and solemnly stepped forward and patted Dongfang Bai's shoulder, "In addition, I have one more thing." ”

Zhao Hai's face showed a touch of mystery and seriousness, "I suspect that this time the plague may have a human shadow in it." ”

"I hope that when you go to check this time, you can help me find out the real cause of this plague outbreak."

Dongfang Bai solemnly clenched his fists: "Please rest assured Your Majesty, Dongfang Bai has an unshirkable responsibility, and he will live up to His Majesty's trust." ”

"As for Lord Cao Jingchun, the old minister, he has already been arranged."

"If there are no more injuries in the future, I believe that he will be able to recover soon."

Zhao Hai also rarely clenched his fists, "Since that's the case, then I will thank you in advance." ”

"It is the duty of the old man to eat the king's fortune and worry about the king."

"Your Majesty has treated me with courtesy so far, and the East can't help but repay it." Dongfang Bai gave up again.

……

Three days later.

Soon, before sunset, Shi Zongzheng had sent more than 15,000 masks.

These masks were presented to Zhao Hai in advance, and Zhao Hai confirmed that the samples were correct, and then they were released for approval.

When the masks passed the inspection, Zhao Hai immediately sent people to send all these masks to the place where the plague was located.

Early the next morning, Zhao Hai continued to order to rush to work, so that Shi Zongzheng could make as many masks as he could.

And ordered that all localities cooperate, and at the same time manufacture, for use in the epidemic area.

Early morning hour.

One by one, like a carp crossing the river, it is constantly presented.

It's all about the epidemic along the Yangtze River, and for a while, after Zhao Hai read it, he only felt that his head was big.

In the land of the two rivers, as well as in the counties and counties in various places, the people are panicked and worried.

As the situation fermented, Zhao Hai knew that just sitting in the town no longer worked.

So he made the astonishing decision to personally go to the site of the plague and command on the front line!

At this moment, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were like a hot pot, boiling, and they were all opposed.

Everyone demanded that Zhao Hai not be allowed to go.

There are even civil officials who directly announced in the court that if Zhao Hai really goes, then they will hang themselves when they go home.

"Your Majesty! You are the son of heaven of a country, the king of the imperial court, how can you risk yourself and go to the epidemic place alone? ”

"If Your Majesty has the slightest problem, then Great Qin will be spilled."

At this moment, Wei Qian was already very excited, his face was red and his neck was thick, so he couldn't wait to tie Zhao Hai with a rope and stop Zhao Hai from going.

"The plague is so dangerous, if Your Majesty goes, the blessing and misfortune will be unpredictable! Why didn't Your Majesty command the overall situation in Xianyang? ”

Everyone was gossiping, and almost the entire Chengming Hall collapsed.

Zhao Hai saw Wei Qian and other loyal ministers, and at this moment, he no longer supported him, and he only felt depressed in his heart, and inexplicably surged with anger.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't be impatient." Zhao Hai waved his hand and motioned for everyone to stop first.

"Now the impact of the plague has exceeded our imagination."

"Two or three counties within the plague area affected seven, eight, or even ten counties around it."

"The people are panicking and trying to move and flee, and the officials are confused and don't know what to do."

"If I don't give them confidence, if I don't give them personal command, and let this plague develop, the plague will definitely be uncontrollable in the future."

"At that time, the grain business all over the country, as well as our water transportation, will be blocked, and the losses will be incalculable."

"Therefore, I must go to the land of Jiangzuo to give confidence to the officials and the people, and at the same time allocate manpower and material resources to achieve good isolation and treatment."

"Can't go! Your Majesty can't go! ”

Just as the ministers were about to refute, a woman's voice suddenly appeared above the Qilin Palace.

Everyone saw that it was the concubines of the harem, and they didn't know when they entered the Qilin Hall from the side.

The leader turned out to be Concubine Lan!

I don't know who went to the harem to inform Zhao Hai that he was going to the plague land to take command, and Concubine Lan and the others all knew about it.

When she heard that Zhao Hai had made this decision, she immediately became anxious, and she didn't care about the rules of the palace at all, so she ran here.

Seeing this, Zhao Hai immediately felt a headache in his head, this is something that the harem can't do politics since ancient times, Zhao Hai doesn't know how many times he told Concubine Lan.

I didn't expect Concubine Lan to be so stubborn, and she went directly to the Qilin Palace.
