Chapter 238 Plague 1

Chapter 238 Plague 1

She actually joked with him?!

Does she really not know how furious Dugu Juechen was to see her laughing and chatting with another man?!

Dugu Juechen's face was gloomy, but he was struggling with how to punish Liu Ruxuan...

Seeing Dugu Juechen's expression, Liu Ruxuan found it both amusing and infuriating. Feeling somewhat guilty, she specially brewed him a cup of flower tea.

"Master, I know I was wrong. Grand Preceptor Sikong is my savior. It's not wrong to be polite and give him a gift, is it?" Liu Ruxuan felt that if Dugu Juechen continued to get angry, he would freeze her.

Seeing that Liu Ruxuan knew she was wrong, Dugu Juechen's expression softened: "From now on, you are not allowed to have contact with any other men besides me."

Liu Ruxuan replied confidently, "Yes, sir."

"Reporting to the Night Emperor, General Sun reports that a plague has broken out on the southern border of Jiuze, resulting in the deaths and injuries of nearly three hundred civilians and soldiers. He requests reinforcements." A guard hurriedly reported.

Upon hearing this, Ye Li dropped the memorial in his hand to the ground: "How could this be?"

"I was unaware that the epidemic is still spreading," the guard said, his voice trembling.

"Xuanyuan Lang." Ye Li called out to his side, and Xuanyuan Lang stepped forward: "Your subject is here."

"Quickly lead the imperial physicians and a thousand soldiers to reinforce the area and prevent the epidemic from spreading." Although Ye Li was anxious, she remained calm and composed.

"Xuanyuan obeys." After saying this, Xuanyuan immediately left with the guard who had just reported the order.

In the palace, Ye Liuli was carrying a cage, which was wrapped in a black cloth.

Just as Ye Liuli was about to enter the imperial study, she saw Xuan Yuanlang rushing out without even having time to greet her.

Ye Liuli glanced at Xuan Yuanlang's back, but didn't mind too much, and carried the cage into the house.

"Brother, what happened?" Ye Liuli asked, placing the cage next to the table.

Ye Li sighed: "A plague has broken out on the southern border, killing nearly three hundred civilians and soldiers. I have sent Xuan Yuanlang there, but I don't know if he can contain the epidemic."

Upon hearing this, Ye Liuli's playful expression turned serious. Seeing Ye Liuli's reaction, Ye Li couldn't help but chuckle, "Royal sister, don't worry, I'm here for you."

Ye Liuli nodded without saying anything, but glanced at the door.

Xuanyuan Lang, accompanied by three pharmacists, traveled to the frontier.

Two days later, they finally arrived at the southern border, where everything was desolate.

"General Xuanyuan, I apologize for not greeting you sooner. General Sun is already waiting for you in his tent." The strategist came out to greet him from afar.

Xuanyuan Lang nodded and followed the strategist into the tent.

Fang Qi was the leader of the three pharmacists. He took out several masks and distributed them to the other two pharmacists. After they put them on, they got off the carriage.

Led by a local, the three pharmacists went to the place where the patients were being placed, where the sick people were lying haphazardly on the ground.

"It really is a plague." Fang Qi concluded after examining the area.

“Since ancient times, plagues have been a deadly threat. Physician Fang, why don’t we go back? If we stay here and are unfortunately infected, we will also die,” said one of the pharmacists, Antonsen.

“Pharmacist An, as a pharmacist, your job is to save lives and heal the wounded. How can you only think about running away in the face of battle?” Han Moyuan said righteously.

Pharmacist An was displeased and retorted with a stern face: "What do you mean I deserted my post? Tell me yourself, do you have a way to save them?"

Han Moyuan was speechless for a moment, as there is no record of a plague being completely solved from ancient times to the present.
