"You arrange for someone you trust to send some medicinal materials and get some news by the way." Mu Siyu warned.
Wen Wensong agreed.
"How are the people who suffered from smallpox not long ago now?" she asked again.
"I didn't ask any more about this."
"Then I'll pay you a return visit," Mu Siyu said. "After all, I just recovered not long ago. I don't know if there will be any sequelae in the future. It would be better to ask."
Wen Wensong quickly arranged for a batch of medicinal materials and supplies to be sent there.
Later, return visits to smallpox patients also came into effect.
"Madam." Zisu brought a bowl of bird's nest. "You should eat something! I have been exhausted during this period and have lost a lot of weight. If the master comes back and sees me, he will definitely feel bad."
"I'm sure I'm going to feel bad. I'm afraid that the master will think that we two are useless and can't serve the madam, so he will replace us in a rage. Madam, please do well, and we still want to follow you!" Ziyuan complained.
Mu Siyu touched the flesh on her waist and said, "Not to mention, my waist has become a little thinner. I didn't have to lose weight when I wanted to lose weight. I don't want to lose weight anymore. It's gone by itself."
There were many and complicated things in the yamen. With Lu Yi away, Wen Wensong became increasingly unable to do what he wanted to do. When he was at his wits' end several times, Wen Wensong got some wonderful ideas from Mu Siyu. After that, if he had anything he didn't understand, he would go to her. .
Dian Yucheng, Liujia Village.
Lu Yi, who was masked and dressed in gray clothes, just walked out of the room of a smallpox patient. Seeing Lu Xuan carrying a backpack, he asked: "Is there no medicine left?"
Lu Xuan nodded gently: "There is no medicine left."
"There's no movement over there in Dian Jade City?"
"We sent people there, and it was said that they were not even allowed to enter the city gate. When I heard that he was a villager from Liujia Village, they almost beat him to death." Lu Xuan sneered, "The gentleman from Dian Jade City is really afraid of death and stupid. "
"Don't they know that we have all taken the medicine, at least we will not be infected?" Lu Erniu said angrily.
"They know, but they don't believe it." Gao Yamen came over tiredly, "The disease is under control, but the smallpox patients here are obviously more serious than the patients here, and these medicines are far from enough."
"The news can't spread." Lu Xuan said, "Fortunately, there are some medicinal herbs on the mountain behind. I will look for them these days and I can survive for a few days. However, I still have to find a way to buy some medicinal materials."
"I'll go in person." Lu Yi said coldly, "I want to see if they dare to stop me."
A villager ran in from outside and said excitedly: "Sir, someone has brought medicine."
Lu Yi and others looked at each other.
They rushed to the entrance of the village.
"Master Lu." Wang Yamen handed over his hand. "Madam asked us to send some medicinal materials and supplies. I don't know if they will be used."
"Madam?" Lu Erniu asked, "Is this our Sister-in-law Yi?"
On weekdays, when facing Mu Siyu, they call her "Madam", but in private, they still call her Mrs. Yi as before.
Everyone in the yamen respected Mu Siyu very much, and the phrase "sister-in-law" was their respect for her.
"Yes." Wang Yamen said, "How many more wives can we have?"
"Madam is still so considerate." Xia Kun said, "This has solved our urgent need."
"Wang Yamen, how is Hubei City?" Lu Yi ordered them to move things first, and called Wang Yamen aside and asked about the situation in Hubei City.
Wang Yamen spoke vividly of Mu Siyu's dedication to Hubei City.
"Sir, Madam is really powerful. With her in charge in Hubei City, no matter how difficult the problem is, we can solve it. However, we still hope that you can go back early so that Madam can feel more relaxed."
"It's almost time. With this batch of goods you sent, I will definitely return within a month." Lu Yi said, "But since you are here, I need you to make a trip..."
Magistrate Zhang had just taken office not long ago. After dealing with the mess left by the previous magistrate, he was counting the gift lists sent from various places.
"Lu Yi..." He pointed to a gift list and said, "The Magistrate of Hubeicheng County..."
"Sir, what's the problem?" asked the confidant next to him.
"This man is somewhat famous." Magistrate Zhang said, "I have good relations with Mr. Qin. Mr. Qin recently mentioned Lu Yi to me in his letter and said that it was thanks to this person that he was promoted."
"Just a county magistrate..."
"There has been a lot of movement in Hubei City recently." Magistrate Zhang said, "This person is not simple!"
Yu Xian Cheng walked in from the outside, raised his hands to Magistrate Zhang and said, "Sir, there have been rumors in the city recently, and the people have spread them everywhere. When my subordinates heard about it, they came over and reported it to you. I don't know if this matter is important or not."
"Tell me and listen."
"The people in the city said that there was smallpox in Dian Yucheng, and the local county magistrate was timid and fearful of trouble. Instead, it was the magistrate of Lu County in the neighboring area who brought people here..."
Two days later, the county magistrate of Dian Yucheng just got out of bed, and a document came from Shangfeng, naming Dian Yucheng to fully cooperate with Lu Yi. If he did not cooperate, he would be severely punished according to the rules.
With the cooperation of everyone, the smallpox incident in Dian Yucheng finally came to an end.
"Master Lu, I have prepared some wine, why don't you go have a few drinks?" said the magistrate of Dian Yucheng.
"No need." Lu Yi looked tired. "To be honest, I have been away from Hubei City for too long. I am really worried about the things at hand. Now I just want to rush back."
"Even if you are in a hurry, you still have to eat and drink, right?"
"No need." Lu Yi handed over his hands and turned to leave.
The county magistrate of Dian Yucheng said worriedly: "Sir, it doesn't look good!"
"This Lu Yi... he must have harmed me." The county magistrate of Yucheng, Dian said fiercely, "He wanted to be a good person, but let me be a bad person. I will never let him go."
The county magistrate glanced at Shang Feng, disappointment flashing in his eyes.
He had persuaded him at the beginning that since Lu Yi had brought a doctor who could treat smallpox, he would take the opportunity to seek fame and work with Lu Yi to take care of those smallpox patients, but he refused to listen, saying that he did not want to take the risk. Now smallpox treatment
Well, Lu Yi's virtuous reputation spread, but he got a bad reputation for being afraid of death. He still wanted to 'not let' Lu Yi go, but he was afraid that this black gauze hat could no longer be worn, so what qualifications did he have?
Let the other side go?
Lu Yi rode on horseback and led his men to Hubei City.
The people of Dian Jade City gathered on both sides of the street, shouting to Lu Yi one by one.
"Sir, you are such a good official..."
"If you can become one of your subjects, it must be a blessing from God..."
"Can we come to Hubei City?"
Xia Kun rode up to Lu Yi's side and said calmly: "Sir, have you heard their voices? As long as you climb higher, you can become the guardian of more people. Their lives are hard and they need you.
Let’s add some sugar.”
Lu Yi glanced at Xia Kun: "I remember you hate the government."
"That was before." Xia Kun said without changing his expression, "Now, I believe you can help me."
A few days later, their team returned to Hubei City.
