The plan was to set off in three days, but unexpectedly the next day at noon, three carriages and a convoy left the northern city.

Just as Cheng Xue was worried, the epidemic not only appeared in the garrison in the northern military camp, but also in Wadalu City. The county magistrate of Wadalu immediately decided to seal off the city together with the city defenders, otherwise the neighboring Pote County would hardly be spared.

When Magistrate Tao of Wadalu heard that Li Hui and his wife were coming, he was so happy that he burst into tears.

The high pressure of the past few days has made him exhausted. Now that the backbone has arrived, he can completely relax and vent.

When Li Hui and his party came to the door of the government office and heard the crying inside, they all stood there with a tacit understanding and did not enter the house.

The dignified county magistrate also wanted to save face, so how could he just rush in regardless.

After a long time, when he heard the crying inside subsided, Li Hui waved his hand for his servant to push the door open.

After venting his anger, Magistrate Tao also calmed down. He quickly stood up and responded, cupping his hands and saluting——

"Master Li, Mrs. Li, you are here. Thirty percent of the infected people in the city are now located in the north of the city. Dr. Gao arrived last night and confirmed that the lesions are the same as those of the soldiers at the guard station."

When Cheng Xue heard about Doctor Gao, she raised her head and glanced at Li Hui. After getting permission, she took the five girls and Bai Wei into the car. Changing into a mugwort face towel, Cheng Xue told them five things they needed to pay attention to in the car. Bai Wei didn't need to tell her, she had experienced it once and was rich in experience.

"...In short, all actions must be obeyed. Since you choose to come out with me, you must be obedient. Do you understand?"

"Yes, ma'am."

The little girls all have firm eyes, which makes people feel at ease.

When they came to the north of the city, the carriage stopped. When they got off, they saw a plaque with the name "Jishan Hall" hanging on the door. It can't be compared with the one in Fucheng. This place was renovated using a dilapidated ancestral hall. The location is facing east and west, a typical wing room with cold winters and hot summers.

Before entering, I heard the sound of coughing coming from inside. There were also some doctors, but they were obviously short of manpower.

"Zhu Xuan, sprinkle the medicinal powder you brought in a circle around Jishan Hall. Diao Xiulan, add the realgar powder to the mugwort you brought, and burn it at the door and in the courtyard..."

Cheng Xue skillfully distributed the tasks to the five girls, and she led Bai Wei in.

When I saw the crowded scene in the house and yard, I couldn't help but frown and called the person in charge here.

"What's going on? Why are so many people crowded here? Did Magistrate Tao only give them this place?"

The county official who was in charge here was about to get angry when he heard this, but Bai Wei directly reported her family name, so that he did not dare to take any arrogance.

"The little man Ding Sheng pays his respects to Mrs. Li. It's not that there is no room, but there are really not enough doctors. All the doctors in the city who are willing to take the responsibility are here, and you can't force others to do so."

"Are you getting paid for coming?"

"Yes, yes. Two coins per person per day, all according to the rules set by the government."

Cheng Xue nodded understandingly, scanned the circle, and said:

"Where else? I will be responsible for taking some of the people there. Where is Dr. Gao Jun?"

Ding Sheng asked someone to arrange for the triage of patients, and he personally took Cheng Xue to the backyard to find Dr. Gao.

"...The entire backyard is full of seriously ill people. Mr. Lin was in charge before. Dr. Gao came here yesterday and treated them together with Mr. Lin."

"Does Mr. Lin have his own medicine hall? Are we from Liangyan?"

Seeing Ding Sheng nodding, Cheng Yao understood immediately.

In order to integrate the living habits of people from the two dynasties, Li Hui specially sent a group of doctors over. Not only did they provide land and houses, but they also contributed funds to help open a medicine hall, just to keep them here.

After questioning, it was found that the doctors who came to help were basically the same batch of doctors who were sent. The doctors who did not come were the original people in the city, that is, the Beiqi people who had recovered.

Being big-hearted and uneven is Beiqi's Achilles' heel, so the integration here is not easy, even more difficult than that of Port. When he entered the room, he saw the busy figure of Dr. Gao. He walked over and said softly:

"Military doctor Gao, you're fine."

The person who turned around after hearing the sound saw Cheng Xue, smiled relievedly, and said:

"Every time at this time, Mrs. Li will appear, which is really good news for the people in the north."

"Doctor Gao Jun is serious. You are the good news for the people in the north. What's the situation like? Can you tell what it is?"

"Fever, and it's coming fiercely. Although there are no deaths yet, if you can't control your body temperature, you won't be able to control it in three days. When I came, the coach had received the letter you sent, but there was another What pills?"

Without Cheng Xue's instructions, Bai Wei put down the bottles and jars she had brought, took out one of the brown porcelain bottles and handed it over.

"This is the antipyretic pill made by Madam."

Dr. Gao took it, poured out a pill, put it in his hand, smelled it, and nodded.

"Okay, I'll give them a try. Mrs. Li should take care of herself. We doctors are the most precious."

Cheng Xue said "hmm" and followed to help.

There was a separation and scoring for a while, and she helped here first to avoid wasting time. All the pills should be fed, the house should be lit with mugwort, and then all the doors and windows should be opened.

After a long time, the doors and windows were closed, and people were ordered to bathe, change clothes and bedding for the patients in the room.

After struggling for a long time, the air in the room was finally fresh, and the patients who had changed into dry and comfortable clothes fell asleep from exhaustion. Whether he can get better depends on these few days. What she brought is not a panacea. If there is no effect, the patient has changed into clean clothes and can go on the road safely.

In the evening, Ding Sheng came over and said that Zhu Xuan and other doctors had divided the patients into three places according to their severity.

Among them, mild cases are very close to those in contact, and then there are fevers and coughs. Cheng Yao is responsible for the latter, and hands the former ones to the doctor in the city. All the medicines they brought were distributed without hesitation. The government office has ordered the medicine workshop to rush to the medicine king to deliver them. As for when they will arrive, it will depend on the degree of rush there.

Thinking about it, it shouldn't be too late. After all, Li Hui governs the northern state capital and he puts the people first.

Cheng Xue brought the five girls to the place they were responsible for. As usual, they first burned mugwort to disperse the smell in the room, and then began to give medicine and diagnose the pulse. How I took care of the interns back then is how I take care of five girls now.

Let them take their pulse first, then each write a prescription, and then she will summarize it before taking the pulse.

This busy schedule lasted until late at night. Although it was tedious and a waste of time, her dictation and their own practice were obviously two different things.

Just after midnight, Bai Wei hurriedly came in from outside, curtsied and saluted——

"Madam, the master is here."

"Don't let him in."

"The master asked you to go to the door. He said he brought something for you."

Cheng Xue felt sweet after hearing this. When she walked to the door, she saw Li Hui standing there covered with a scarf and said with a smile:

"Go back, I can take care of myself."

Li Hui nodded and put the cloth bag on his shoulder on the ground.

"I brought some candied fruits and plums. It will make my mouth feel better when my mouth is bitter. I have sent scouts over there. I believe they will be able to trust you in the next few days. What else are you missing here?"

"There is no shortage. Magistrate Tao has prepared everything, and I have brought a lot of things."
