Why do you always rush to join me after awakening?

Chapter 116 The calm before the storm

"I don't know how my mother is doing. The nanny hasn't sent any letters for a while."

"Wow, you're still in contact with your mother. I thought the rest of us were pathetic wretches no one wanted."

At this moment, someone excitedly waved at the young eunuch and shouted, "There's a letter for you!"

The young eunuch immediately picked up the envelope and ran happily to find Jinzhong.

After all, his master knows more characters than he does.

-

"When did this happen?"

"If we calculate it based on the time it took to deliver the letter, it would have been about a month."

When Wei Yanwan heard Jinzhong's words, she felt a little uneasy.

"Jinzhong, this gold bracelet..."

Jinzhong understood Wei Yanwan's intention, so he didn't want her to feel any psychological burden. He smiled and said, "Master Ling, do you know why I like to give you gold jewelry the most?"

"why?"

"Of course, gold is the most valuable when you need money. Other things can be exchanged for a few coins, so I give these to you, and you have the right to use them."

Since Jinzhong could not stay for long and had to return to serve Ruyi, he had to leave immediately after delivering this information.

Wei Yanwan looked at the gold bracelet on her wrist, gritted her teeth, and said, "Chun Chan, go call Doctor Jiang later and tell him I have something important to discuss with him and ask him to come over."

"Yes."

Lan Cui realized that something big was about to happen and quickly asked, "Master, what exactly happened? You look very anxious."

"Lan Cui, I'm afraid the smallpox epidemic is coming soon."

"What? This hasn't happened in a long time, how could it happen!"

In the letter that Jinzhong had just delivered to her, there was a mention of the death of an elderly person. After his death, people found red blisters the size of beans on his body.

Because the place was remote and backward, and there was a lack of doctors, no one knew what it was.

Even getting that letter in might have been a hassle.

Jiang Yebin quickly got the news and hurried over with a medicine box.

"My dear, are you feeling unwell somewhere?"

Wei Yanwan looked at the breathless Jiang Yebi and immediately realized that she had asked Chunchan to pass on the message, but this girl must not have conveyed it clearly.

"Doctor Jiang, I'm not the one who's sick. Do you remember the smallpox epidemic I mentioned to you a few months ago? Someone has already gotten it."

Jiang Yebin was horrified and said in shock, "What! Is what the young lady said absolutely true!?"

Wei Yanwan nodded, then handed the letter in her hand to Jiang Yebin.

Even though the handwriting is crooked and not very nice, we can tell from the brief description that this person died of smallpox without a doubt.

"Oh my God, this matter must be reported to the Emperor. Where did this letter come from, young master?"

"It was a letter from a young eunuch. He couldn't read, so he wanted someone to read it for him, so it ended up in my hands."

Jiang Yebin lowered his head as if thinking about something, and analyzed, "My dear, the capital has not received any news about this matter until now. There are only two possibilities. Either the situation has been controlled and has not spread, or someone has deliberately blocked the news."

Obviously, Jiang Yebin's idea is more inclined towards the latter.

"I called you here for no other reason than to take preventative measures before the smallpox epidemic spreads into the palace, minimizing casualties."

The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics.

But Wei Yanwan's action has already passed.

Jiang Yebin is a kind-hearted doctor, but he can't do it alone.

"My Lord, this matter is of great importance, and I cannot accomplish it alone."

"I will find a way to disclose this matter to the Emperor. In the meantime, you can research preventive medicine and prepare for a rainy day."

Wei Yanwan then left only the necessary expenses and handed all her jewelry and money to Jiang Yebin.

He even took off the gold bracelet on his hand and put it in there.

"This is all I have now. As for the money, I will continue to find a way."

The medicinal materials in the pharmacy are strictly controlled, and the amount used must be recorded.

Therefore, Jiang Yebin has to spend money to develop new drugs.

Seeing that Wei Yanwan was so righteous, Jiang Yebi no longer refused.

"In that case, I am willing to give it a try. Please let the Emperor know as soon as possible."

"it is good."

[Yan Wan, don't take it lightly. Smallpox has appeared at the delivery point. This letter is definitely contaminated with the virus. It's just a matter of how long the incubation period will last. The palace must be disinfected.]

"Jinzhong was in charge of delivering it just now. Although Jinzhong in the previous life was fine, we can't let our guard down. I have to send him some alcohol later."

Having witnessed the smallpox epidemic in the palace in her previous life, Wei Yanwan knew how serious the harm was. She acted decisively, carefully wiped the letter with alcohol, and disinfected herself before heading to Changchun Palace.

-

"Jiang Yubin, what's wrong with you?"

"惢心? Why are you here alone? Aren't you with Concubine Xian?"

惢心 curled her lips, and was speechless when she thought about that guy Ling Yunche and Concubine Xian having fun in there.

But she couldn't tell Jiang Yebin, so she could only smile and cover up, "The Queen allowed me to go out for a walk, and I didn't expect to run into you. Why do you look so uneasy? Did something happen?"

When Jiang Yebi heard that惢心 was concerned about him, his face lit up with joy, but as if he thought of something, he immediately took out a can of alcohol from his medicine box and stuffed it into惢心's hand.

Because his whole action was a bit sudden,惢心 didn't react for a moment what he was doing.

"惢心, this alcohol is for you to disinfect. Apply some every day, don't forget."

"Okay, I'll apply it."

"I might be very busy these days. If you need anything, just come to the Imperial Hospital directly."

"Oh, I see."

Jiang Yubi didn't say what happened, and惢心 didn't continue to ask.

On the other side, Wei Yanwan had also arrived at Changchun Palace.

Fu Cha Langya frowned and looked at Wei Yanwan, covering her mouth and nose, and said speechlessly, "Have you been drinking? Why do you smell so strongly of alcohol?"

Wei Yanwan stood at the doorway, as far away as possible, and said, "Your Majesty, the smallpox epidemic is about to come. The symptoms described in a letter from a young eunuch are very similar to those of the smallpox epidemic."

"What did you say? Is the letter still there?"

"It's still there, but I left it in Yongshou Palace. I was afraid that if this story was true, the letter would be contaminated with the virus, so I didn't bring it with me."

Even she herself had to wipe herself thoroughly from head to toe with alcohol several times before she dared to come over.

Don’t be afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of what happens.

Fucha Langya stood still, looked directly at Wei Yanwan and asked, "Where did the letter come from?"

"Nanpi, Hebei."

"Sounds familiar. If I remember correctly, the person in charge of that place now is—broken!"
