Chapter 139: The Plague Strikes

After a few people chatted, Yang Ling suddenly spoke,

"Although Mr. Zhongjing is old, he has a ruddy complexion and good health, why did he resign in the first place?"

"Everyone has their own ambitions, and they can't be forced."

Zhang Ji waved his hand and smiled faintly.

Although he didn't say it, Yang Ling also knew the reason.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was turbulent, the government was chaotic, and it was successively controlled by eunuchs and princes.

First, it was to avoid trouble, and secondly, he didn't want to be in the same stream, so Zhang Ji chose to resign.

Yang Ling smiled and said slowly,

"Under the governance of today's son and the general, now that the government is becoming clearer and clearer, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, it is a good time for Mr. to be an official."

After several contacts with Zhang Ji, Yang Ling found that he was not only proficient in medicine, but also had a lot of experience in government affairs.

It's no wonder, after all, Zhang Ji deals with poor people every day.

"I just want to see the people now, and I have no plans to go out again."

Zhang Ji shook his head, his attitude was extremely resolute.

"Sir, how many people can you heal with your own strength?"

"If the gentleman is willing to go out, I will make up my mind to suggest that the general let him establish a medical school."

"Mr. Yu serves as the dean of the college, teaches students, and trains a large number of doctors!"

"Isn't it beautiful that all patients in the world can be treated?"

Yang Ling said with a smile.

"Hiss......"

Zhang Ji gasped, and his pupils shrank sharply.

He never thought that Yang Ling proposed him to be out of office, but it was for such a purpose!

At that time, medicine was underdeveloped, mainly because of two points.

The first is that the information is blocked, and the information transmission is difficult, and the second is that the ancients taught the apprentices to hide their hands, so as not to have the situation that the disciples of the church would starve the master to death.

Because of this, it will lead to the gradual decline of traditional Chinese medicine!

Zhang Ji has a deep understanding of this.

When he was young, he learned from his teachers and improved his medical skills, but he traveled almost all over the world.

If you really do what Yang Ling said, you will be able to go down in history!

It is even possible to become a medical saint of doctors like Confucius!

Zhang Ji's breathing became rapid.

Although he is pure and noble, he is also a scholar.

Since he was born as a scholar, how can he not care about leaving a name in history?

"This matter is not trivial, I hope that Mr. will let me think about it for a few days."

Zhang Ji took a deep breath and suppressed the excitement in his heart.

"It's fine."

Yang Ling nodded, but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

If you throw out such a condition, you don't believe that Zhang Ji is not fooled!

The reason why Yang Ling wooed Zhang Ji is also very simple.

Zhang Ji is quite talented, and letting him live among the people will only waste talents in vain.

It's better to put him in the right position and let him play to his abilities.

In this way, not only can the research of Chinese medicine be accelerated, but also the decline of Chinese medicine can be avoided!

When a few people were talking, suddenly Xu Chu hurriedly rushed in,

"Big brother, Childe has something to ask you over."

Seeing that his face was nervous, Yang Ling knew that something important was going on.

So he didn't delay any longer, stood up, and bowed to Zhang Ji.

"Mr. Zhongjing, take the next step ahead, and come back another day."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"

Zhang Ji stood up and personally sent Yang Ling and his party out the door.

Yang Ling hurried towards the county government and asked Xu Chu,

"But what happened?"

"In the past few days, there have been people in the city who have died violently, and after an investigation, I am afraid that it will be a plague outbreak!"

Xu Chu's expression was solemn.

Yang Ling's face also changed!

In ancient times, when medicine was not developed, once a plague broke out, it was not known how many people would die!

It's no wonder that Xu Chu's expression is so nervous!

He didn't dare to slack off, quickened his pace, and quickly rushed back to the county office.

Cao Ang is like an ant on a hot pot, so anxious.

Seeing Yang Ling returning, he seemed to have a backbone, and hurriedly stepped forward.

"Teacher, you're back!"

"Without further ado, what's going on?"

Yang Ling asked solemnly.

"The recent hot weather, combined with the fighting in the past few days, has led to an outbreak of the plague."

Cao Ang introduced the situation,

"Now there are not a few people in the city who have high fever and cold heat, and even in our army, a similar situation has appeared!"

Oh my boy, this is so serious!

Yang Ling pondered for a moment and looked at Jia Xu on the side,

"What is Mr. Wenhe's good plan?"

Jia Xu looked inexplicable, and he didn't know why Yang Ling asked himself.

But after thinking about it, he still said honestly,

"I don't really know much about epidemics. However, the epidemic is dangerous, so Childe might as well leave Wancheng first and then make plans? ”

Are you worried about Cao Ang, or are you worried about yourself?

Yang Ling pursed his lips.

Yes, asking Jia Xu is also asking in vain, and you still have to rely on yourself.

He was thinking about countermeasures, and his eyes inadvertently fell on Huang Zhong.

That's right, how did I forget Zhang Ji!

He had written "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases" and had studied plague quite a bit!

Thinking of this, Yang Ling no longer hesitated, and immediately said to Xu Chu,

"Zhong Kang, go and bring Mr. Zhong Jing here!"

"Yes!"

Xu Chu gave up his hand and left quickly.

"Who is Mr. Zhongjing?"

Cao Ang said with a blank expression.

"He's a doctor in the city, and he's a very skilled doctor."

Yang Ling said with a smile,

"If he is in charge, he will be able to eradicate the plague!"

"If that's the case, that's great!"

Cao Ang was very happy when he heard this.

He has only captured Wancheng not long ago, if the plague breaks out completely and the people suffer heavy casualties, then he will not have the face to see his father!

After a while, Xu Chu turned back.

Although he took Zhang Ji with him, he was tied up by Wuhua and forcibly brought back.

Yang Ling was dumbfounded,

"Zhong Kang, why did you tie up Mr. Zhong Jing!"

"He didn't want to come back with me, so I tied him up!"

Xu Chu is rightfully authentic.

Yang Ling couldn't cry or laugh, and hurriedly said,

"Hurry up and untie Mr. Zhongjing!"

After waiting to be released, Zhang Ji was obviously a little unhappy,

"Mr. Yang Ling, what we said clearly is that let me think about it for a few days. Why do you have to order someone to tie me up at this moment? ”

"Mr. Zhongjing misunderstood, I have something important to ask you to come over to discuss. This brother of mine has a reckless personality and misunderstands what I mean. I'm here to apologize to you! ”

Yang Ling said and apologized to him.

Zhang Ji's expression eased at this time, and he said slowly,

"I wonder what Mr. asked me to discuss?"

"The plague has broken out in the city in the last few days, does Mr. Zhongjing know?"

"What? There is an outbreak of the plague?! ”

Zhang Ji's expression instantly became serious,

"What's going on?"

Yang Ling didn't dare to slack off, so he said it one by one,

"The reason why I invited Mr. over is that I hope Mr. can take action and quell the plague!"

"It is my duty to do this!"

Zhang Ji didn't think about it, so he agreed.
