As for why Lan Bin chose Jinyiwei to transfer it, instead of letting Lan Yu transfer it, it was because there was a plague in Ying Tianfu, and Lan Yu was a general in the army, so he needed to sit in the army in case of accidents.

And Jinyiwei goes straight to Tianting, there is no intermediate link, and it is transferred by Jinyiwei, which is very suitable.

On Thursday, he received an order, didn't ask more, took the cowpox inoculation method, went out of the house, and went straight to the Jinyi Wei Yamen.

Arrived at the Jinyi Guard's Yamen, Thursday took a step ahead of the guards guarding the Yamen, and said: "I am the son of Yongchang Hou, the retinue of the emperor's eldest grandson and Lan Bin, I have something important to see your commander, please pass it on!" ”

"Walk, who are you and our commander? Is it your little slave who can see each other? The guard was stunned and drove away.

Thursday is the people of Yongchang Houfu, don't look at the honest friends in the Hou Mansion, but it is not like this outside, the fox fake tiger said: "Presumptuous, my young master is the companion of the emperor's eldest grandson, delay my young master's big event, you can't afford to bear the guilt!" ”

"This..."

The guard was frightened, he was not afraid of Lan Bin, with their Jinyi Guard's status as the Son of Heaven's pro-army, even if Lan Bin was the son of the Marquis, he was not a bird at all.

But Lan Bin's identity as the eldest grandson of the emperor made him very jealous.

Who doesn't know that the emperor loves the emperor's eldest grandson very much, if he sits against Lan Bin, let this Lan Bin say that Jinyiwei is not, and the emperor's eldest grandson said in front of the emperor, that...

Thursday may have seen the guard's hesitation, and immediately said: "You just pass the word, you can't see me, and you are free to command and decide!" ”

"Alright! You wait here, let me pass it on! ”

After weighing it, the guards still decided not to harm Lan Bin in this matter, hurriedly spoke, and let the other guards look at Thursday, then turned around and came to the yamen lobby.

At this time, not long after arranging the investigation of the source of smallpox in Jurong County, Mao Xiang, who was napping, heard the voice, opened his eyes and saw the guards, and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?" ”

"My lord, the son of Yongchang Hou, the eldest grandson of the emperor read Lan Bin's entourage, saying that he was ordered by Lan Bin and asked to see him on important matters!" The guard saluted.

Lan Bin's retinue?

A mere retinue who also wants to see this commander?

Mao Xiang almost subconsciously waved his hand and asked the guards to drive people away, but thinking of Zhu Yuanzhang's attitude towards Lan Bin, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Forget it, this Lan Bin is a saint, and it is not easy to offend!" Let him come in! ”

When the guard heard this, he was glad for a while, but fortunately, he read that Lan Bin was the eldest grandson of the emperor, and he came in to spread the word. Unexpectedly, Lan Bin was not only the companion of the emperor's eldest grandson, but also had a holy dependent, and even the commander did not want to offend.

Hurriedly said: "Yes, my lord! ”

The sound fell, turned around and hurried away.

A moment later, the guards went and returned, and took Thursday to the lobby of the Jinyi Guard's yamen.

Mao Xiang looked at Thursday, yawned and said, "What did your son-in-law ask you to find this official?" ”

"My young master knows that there is a smallpox plague in Jurong County, and he specially wrote a method to prevent smallpox plague, please command the adult to transfer it to the saint!" Thursday took out the cowpox inoculation and held aloft.

Mao Xiao thought that Lan Bin was looking for something important for him, but he didn't expect to let him run errands.

The most important thing is that he still ran errands to forward to the emperor the method he wrote to prevent smallpox plague.

Even those doctors in the Tai Hospital didn't dare to say that they could write a way to prevent smallpox plague, he Lan Bin was just a hairy boy, his hair hadn't grown yet, and after reading books for a few years, An dared to say that he could write a way to prevent smallpox plague?

Thinking about it, he wanted to refuse, but when he thought that someone sent it, it was a piece of heart, and it was inappropriate not to accept it, so he said lazily: "Leave it to me!" ”

"My young master also said that human life is at stake, please command the Lord to make sure that the method of preventing smallpox plague is presented to the Holy Lord!" Thursday handed the cowpox inoculation method to Mao Xiang, took two steps back, and said.

Mao Xiang said impatiently: "Got it! Step aside! ”

After the Thursday salute, he turned and walked out of the lobby.

After Mao Xiang saw Thursday leave, he sneered, didn't even look at it, and casually handed the cowpox inoculation method written by Lan Bin to the guard: "Take it and throw it away!" ”

"My lord, won't you take a look?" The guard took the cowpox inoculation and hesitated.

"What do you see? Do you think the smallpox plague prevention method written by a hairy boy who has read books for several years and may not have even read medical books will work? Mao Xiang asked rhetorically.

The guards didn't read much, but they also knew that the method of preventing smallpox plague written by people who hadn't even read much medical books would definitely be useless, so he shook his head and said, "Understood, my lord! ”

"Let's go down and do a good job!"

Mao Xiang waved his hand, suddenly remembered something, and advised: "By the way, everything has intelligence news from Jurong County, no matter when it is blocked, report it to me as soon as possible!" ”

"Yes, sir!" The guard saluted, took the vaccinia inoculation, and left the lobby.

………………

Jurong County is not far from Nanjing and the city, but it is not close. According to ancient traffic, it took at least more than a day to ride a horse, and three days to make a round trip.

However, Lan Bin waited in the house for four days, but he didn't see any news of the guards who went to Jurong County, and finally couldn't sit still, so he called the key Lan Wu to his study, and said with a solemn expression: "Don't wait, you hurry up and send someone to Jurong County, be sure to find the situation of the guards who went before." ”

"And you have to find the smallpox-infected cattle and send them back, understand?"

"Young master, are you still sending someone?" Lan Wu's brows tightened.

The last batch of guards sent to Jurong County has not heard any news so far. Nine times out of ten, there will be an accident, and it is even possible to lose your life.

Now that Lan Bin has to send someone to go, he is worried that it will be the same as the result of the last batch of guards, and there will be no news.

"Pie!"

Lan Bin knew Lan Wu's worries, gritted his teeth and said, "You also know the current situation in Nanjing and the urban area. Everyone is at risk of contracting smallpox, and if you can't get vaccinated against cowpox in time and get smallpox, it's over! ”

Speaking of this, Lan Wu was silent.

Although four days ago, Jinyiwei and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division jointly transferred a smallpox patient found in Nanjing and the urban area to a remote place outside the city for isolation and treatment. However, because it was discovered late, it still infected many people, making people panic in Nanjing and the city.

If it weren't for the imperial court closing the city gate and sending troops to guard it, I am afraid that the people in Nanjing and the city would have to flee.

After a while, Lan Wu said, "Okay! I'm going to gather the guards in the palace now..."

"I'm back, young master, the guards are back!"

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside the study, and a slave happily broke into Lan Bin's study.

Lan Bin was stunned for a moment, and then said happily: "Where is it?" ”

"It's in the front yard!" The servant hurriedly said.

Lan Bin and Lan Wu glanced at each other, and almost at the same time rushed out of the study, the small courtyard, and came to the front yard of the Lan Mansion, and saw at a glance that the three guards sent out were riding their horses, handing them over to the servants in the house, and leading them to the stables.

Lan Bin walked over and said with concern: "Why did you only come back now?" Are you alright? ”
