Looking at Li Zian's face that darkened instantly, Shen Tianshu could only bite the bullet and explain: "Your Majesty, the Qingming Festival is in a few days, and every family has to worship their ancestors. It is inconvenient for my daughter to leave home at this time, so it is not as good as your Majesty." I will go back to my house first, and my daughter will leave immediately after Qingming."
Li Zian was not drunk enough to lose his mind. He raised his hand to rub his forehead, vaguely feeling that something was wrong.
Just when he was frowning and thinking, Fan Yuru's slightly urgent voice suddenly came from outside: "Your Majesty, I would like to see you."
"We can discuss this later!" Li Zian said to Shen Tianshu, then rushed out the door and said, "Come in!"
Before he finished speaking, Fan Yuru had already pushed the door open and entered with a very serious look on his face.
"Since Mr. Fan has something to do with the Crown Prince, I would like to retire first."
Shen Tianshu just wanted to take the opportunity to say goodbye and go out, but Fan Yuru said: "Miss Shen, please stay. I may need Miss Shen's help in this matter."
"What happened?" Shen Tianshu was keenly aware that things seemed not simple.
"There seems to be signs of an epidemic in the city now." Fan Yuru said in a very serious tone, "It is understood that dozens of people are suffering from vomiting and diarrhea."
Shen Tianshu was shocked when he heard this, frowned and retorted: "Vomiting and diarrhea may not necessarily be an epidemic."
"Miss Shen is right." Fan Yuru nodded, but changed the subject and continued, "But these people have been getting sick one after another since morning, and the disease develops very rapidly and is difficult to control. Nowadays, most of the patients are still concentrated in the southwest. It is a slum area in the corner, but at the current rate of development, it may soon spread to the whole city."
Hearing this, Shen Tianshu stood up and said, "Does my father know the news?"
Fan Yuru shook his head and said: "The news came to me from the secret guards of the palace. Now that the matter has not spread, Lord Shen probably doesn't know yet."
"Mr. Fan just said that the condition is developing rapidly and is difficult to control. Does this mean that a doctor has already gone to treat it?"
"Some people who got sick early asked doctors. It is reported that they have not improved even after taking medicine." Fan Yuru said, "This matter has probably been spread among various medical clinics. Now there is no doctor to come to the southwest corner anymore." patients, some hospitals have even closed their doors."
Shen Tianshu's brows furrowed even more tightly and he said: "Magic Doctor Jiang once made statistics. From the previous dynasty to the present, the epidemic in Huguang has been more common in winter, followed by summer, and even worse in spring and autumn.
"It's spring now, which should be the time when epidemics are least likely to occur in Huguang. What's more, the weather has been smooth since the beginning of spring this year, with no abnormal weather or famine. How could an epidemic break out? This really doesn't make sense..."
Fan Yu couldn't think about this at this time. What he was most concerned about at this time was Li Zian's safety.
"Whether it's an epidemic or not, the Crown Prince must leave Yongzhou Mansion as soon as possible."
Shen Tianshu also nodded in approval and said: "After you take people out of the city, it is best to go straight to the nearest inn. Everyone should take a shower and change clothes. If there are new clothes, it is best to replace them. If not, you can boil the original clothes and dry them before wearing them. .
"Have little contact with outsiders on the way back. Don't drink raw water or eat raw food. Everything you want must be cooked before eating.
"After returning to Wuchang Prefecture, don't go into the city yet. Stay in a hospital outside the city for a while. It won't be too late to go back to the city after no one gets sick."
Fan Yuru listened carefully, making sure that she missed every word before nodding: "I remember, thank you Miss Shen, and I hope Miss Shen will take care of you."
Shen Tianshu nodded and turned to leave.
Li Zian was still a little confused just now, but when he saw Shen Tianshu about to leave, he suddenly came to his senses, grabbed her and asked, "What do you want to do?"
"Your Majesty, please go back and change your clothes. Let's go take a look at the southwest corner."
Li Zian confirmed his suspicion that Shen Tianshu was indeed going to save people as Mrs. Tong.
"Don't go!" he said sternly, "I'm going to ask someone to arrange a doctor, but you can't do that!"
"I am also a doctor, why not!"
Shen Tianshu's attitude was a hundred times tougher than before. He shook off Li Zian's hand and stared at him.
"You..." Li Zian originally wanted to say, if something happens to you, what will my father do?
But looking at Shen Tianshu's firm eyes, I suddenly remembered what she had said before.
In her eyes, there is no distinction between high and low patients.
Then, Li Zian remembered the epidemic that broke out in Wuchang Mansion seven years ago.
His father sent his grandmother, mother and himself out of the city, but he stayed and took charge of the overall situation despite everyone's objections. In the end, he successfully stabilized the people's hearts and controlled the epidemic at an extremely fast speed.
He has always known that the reason why his father is loved by the people is because he loves the people like a son and exchanges heart for heart.
If his father had not been in a coma today, he would not have stopped Shen Tianshu from seeing a doctor for the sake of his own health.
"You can't go like this!" Li Zian said quickly, "First ask someone to cook a decoction to prevent the epidemic. Daily clothes are not acceptable either. Your hands, feet and collar must be wrapped tightly, and your mouth and nose must be covered with gauze. .”
After hearing this, Shen Tianshu's eyes warmed up slightly and he said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, I will be careful."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Looking at Shen Tianshu's back without any hesitation, Li Zian felt that he had a new understanding of her.
Fan Yuru looked at Shen Tianshu with worry in his eyes, but his top priority was to ensure that Li Zian was not infected.
"Your Majesty, it's not too late, my subordinates have gathered all the people, let's leave the city immediately!"
Unexpectedly, Li Zian shook his head and said: "No, I won't leave!"
"Your Majesty..." Fan Yuru became anxious after hearing this, "Think about the Dowager Empress and the Princess, and think about Prince Rui's Mansion. If you make any mistakes, then..."
Li Zian raised his hand to stop him and said: "An epidemic breaks out in Yongzhou Mansion, and Prince Wang escapes before the battle? If such words spread, will it be of any benefit to the palace? What's more, Miss Shen also said that it may not be an epidemic."
Fan Yuru said anxiously: "My lord, the son of a rich man cannot sit down in court. Your safety is the most important thing. If you are worried about the situation in Yongzhou Mansion, I am willing to stay."
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid enough to commit suicide." Li Zian said, "I will stay here until there is news from Miss Shen."
"Sir..." Fan Yuru wanted to persuade him again, but was stopped by Li Zian's look and had to shut up angrily.
Seeing that he couldn't convince Li Zian, he had to make some arrangements.
First, someone was sent to invite Shen Zhonglei to come over to discuss matters.
Immediately afterwards, the secret guards were ordered to seal off the Magnolia Hall and no one was allowed to enter or exit.
Finally, someone was sent to pay close attention to the epidemic situation in the city. If the situation went wrong, they would rather knock Li Zian out than take him away.
