The medical concubine is blessed with good fortune and her husband's life is prosperous. The mo

Just when Shen Dongsu's carriage entered the palace, the air in the carriage suddenly became cold, followed by a rustling sound on the roof of the carriage.

Shen Dongsu opened the car window and took a look. There were dots of white dots in the sky. The first snow in Chang'an City started to fall in mid-September.

Shen Dongsu was frightened. Since ancient times, natural disasters and man-made disasters have always been blamed on the emperor.

This year it snows early and there is plague again. If someone is willing to provoke it, I wonder what the people will say about the emperor.

Maybe he would have to force the emperor to issue an edict to calm down the people's resentment.

But she quickly thought of something. The plague was most feared in summer, as it spread very quickly.

In winter, the spread slows down, and the contamination caused by corpses will also slow down.

While thinking, Eunuch Zhu reminded her to get off the carriage.

Under normal circumstances, no one except the emperor and the queen mother is qualified to enter the palace by carriage.

The carriage she took to the main palace this time was authorized by the emperor.

What surprised her even more was that when she got off the carriage, she saw Ling Mo Xiao standing next to her.

The little eunuch held a lantern, and under the orange light, Ling Moxiao stood there in the wind and snow.

It's not a feeling of deserted silence, but a feeling of returning home on a snowy night, but someone is waiting for you.

The moment she saw him, Shen Dongsu's uneasiness all the way disappeared.

He held a fox fur cloak in his hand, stepped forward to help her out of the carriage, then put the cloak on her and asked softly:

"Is it freezing?"

Shen Dongsu was under Guangxiu and held his hand. His hand was so warm.

He chuckled and shook his head: "No, it just started snowing halfway. Aunt Ji made me wear a cotton-padded jacket when I went out. It's not cold at all."

Ling Moxiao held her hand tightly, rubbed her fingers, led her to the palace, and whispered:

"All the doctors from the Imperial Hospital are here, don't worry, just tell me what you know about the condition."

"Even if nothing is found, no one can blame you."

Shen Dongsu asked in a low voice: "It's snowing again, and it's plague again. Will anyone talk about this matter about my father?"

Ling Moxiao sighed and didn't answer. The imperial court banned witchcraft and cupping, but the people still believed in the words of the alchemists, and many alchemists were supported by noble families.

In order to control public opinion, due to the successive losses of the Lu and Chen families this year, the gentry became more and more wary of the imperial court, for fear of being burned on their own heads.

He will definitely take advantage of this God-given opportunity to spread public opinion that is unfavorable to the imperial power among the people.

However, as long as the imperial court can solve the plague crisis as soon as possible, those public opinions will be self-defeating.

Shen Dongsu Xiangxiang said softly: "In fact, this first snow can exactly slow down the spread of plague in Chang'an City."

"If the imperial court can spread this news in advance, even if someone uses this matter to discuss the emperor, it will not stand."

Ling Moxiao's eyes lit up and he turned to ask her, "Seriously?"

Without waiting for her answer, she smiled and said to herself: "What the lady said is of course true."

"It seems that this first snowfall is not adding disaster to disaster, but God intends to help!"

Shen Dongsu laughed dryly, pulled back his hand, and reminded: "In front of the father, the prince, please don't talk like this."

Ling Moxiao felt that the dark clouds above his head had dissipated when the little girl came. His mood improved a lot, and he wanted to tease her:

"How do you speak? Madam, you are saying that I can't call you madam? Okay, I'll note it down for my husband."

Shen Dongsu pursed her lips and turned to stare at him, feeling that King Ling was letting himself go more and more! Have you forgotten your persona?

But because it was too cold, she glared. Snowflakes fell on her eyelashes, and she blinked several times because of the ice.

Ling Moxiao couldn't help but lean into her ear: "Are you flirting with your husband...?"

Shen Dongsu felt that if he didn't stop him, people would notice him like this when he entered the hall.

He asked in a deep voice: "My lord, can you be more serious?"

It's no use that I was so worried about you in the palace, but you ended up here smiling so playfully.

Unexpectedly, when she said this, Ling Moxiao instantly returned to his cold face state, but his eyes were full of tenderness.

He said seriously: "Dong Su, I'm very happy to see you."

For the first time, I experienced what the ancients said: not seeing something for one day is like three autumns.

Shen Dongsu was startled, feeling that these were his true words, and expressed his feelings in the same way:

"Me too. I'm very happy to know that the prince is well."

Before arriving at the main hall, Shen Dongsu took the time to whisper: "By the way, our guards are waiting for news outside the city."

"I heard someone say that something happened to Chen Xingzhen after returning from Youzhou."

Ling Mo raised his eyebrows. With Mr. Pang here, he didn't worry about that idiot missing the opportunity. They were afraid that he would flee in the face of battle, allowing Beijiang to seize the opportunity.

"I will send someone to investigate! The most important thing right now is the plague. How the infected person traveled from Minzhou to Chang'an has not yet been investigated clearly."

"There must be someone behind this who is causing trouble, intending to cause panic in Chang'an."

While they were talking, the main hall arrived, and the two of them looked at each other, feeling like they were not afraid of anything with the other person by their side.

After Shen Dongsu greeted the emperor, without saying a word, the emperor asked the imperial doctor to give her a copy of the patient's file.

So far, no one except Ling Mo Xiao took her medical skills seriously.

The emperor also held on to the glimmer of hope and began to recruit private doctors. Since King Ling repeatedly said that the princess had good medical skills, he asked her to participate and try it out.

As for those imperial doctors, they thought that Princess Ling wanted to take this opportunity to make a name for herself, which is understandable.

Many children of noble noble families would go into officialdom and battlefields to improve their political achievements. They would go to the battlefield without even mentioning a sword, and without killing any enemies, they could still get the title of "general" and return to Chang'an.

Princess Ling did not have a capable mother to back her up, so she could only rely on some unusual achievements to attract the emperor's attention.

As long as she is not too stubborn and makes arbitrary accusations, the imperial doctors will not reject her.

After all, except for Princess Ling, no other noble lady was interested in Xinglin, and it would be the light of their hospital to say so.

What the imperial doctors didn't expect was that Princess Ling read the files very carefully and asked very sharp questions.

At first, everyone was nonchalant about her questions, but in the end, even the dean of Taiyuan Hospital sat up straight and answered her questions seriously.

After discussing it for more than half an hour, after reading all the files. Shen Dongsu got a ridiculous and sad answer.

"You have not personally treated infected patients? You have not examined corpses? Are all the information recorded and transmitted by people below?"

The imperial doctors looked at each other, and the hospital director smiled bitterly and said: "The princess doesn't know something. The plague has not spread to the East District yet."

"If we go down to see patients, we can't go back to the East District. So, what if a nobleman from the East District has a headache and a fever and there is no imperial doctor?"

"As for the corpse, that is my job and has nothing to do with the hospital."

Shen Dongsu's expression did not change and he asked again: "How is the Imperial Hospital prepared to prevent the current plague in the city?"

The courtyard official looked troubled again: "Currently, a ban has been issued throughout the city. There are forbidden troops patrolling and people are strictly prohibited from going out."

Shen Dongsu handed him the ten prohibitions on epidemic prevention that he printed: "Sir, take a look at this. If it is promoted throughout the city, it will be of great benefit to epidemic prevention."

When Nayuan took it, he took a look, his thick half-white eyebrows trembled a few times, and he said a few good words:

"It's easy to understand and easy to convey to the people. It can indeed be promoted throughout the city."

"The old man and the princess will work together to present the Ten Bans for Epidemic Prevention to the Emperor and have the Forbidden Army publicize it throughout the city as soon as possible."

Shen Dongsu smiled and said: "Prince Ling should have discussed it with the emperor."

As soon as she said these words, she knew she had done something wrong. This hospital obviously wants to take some credit for the Ten Bans on Epidemic Prevention.

And when she said this, she refused to give the credit to Taiyuan Hospital. But this is indeed the case!

When Ling Moxiao picked him up, he saw the leaflet in Yue Jian's hand, took it and said that he wanted to discuss it with the emperor.

She wanted to ease the awkward atmosphere and said with a smile: "I don't think Prince Ling can explain it clearly, so why don't I and my wife go to see my father together?"

But the attitude of the hospital changed drastically, and he said with a fake smile: "There are still many cases to be seen here. Princess, please go and explain to the emperor!"

Shen Dongsu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly. In addition to being good at medical skills, the hospital work was also complicated in terms of human relations.

It can be said that as long as there is a group, there is a world.

At the same time, she could feel that these imperial doctors were repulsive to her joining.

Neither she nor Prince Ling had ever done anything to offend Taiyuan. Therefore, there was only one explanation for the fact that most of Taiyin's hospital were princelings.

If this is the case, she feels deeply powerless for Chang'an's epidemic prevention.

No wonder the emperor sealed off the city so forcefully. This is indeed the best way to prevent the epidemic.

At this time, the ten prohibitions on epidemic prevention spread among the imperial doctors, and everyone talked about it, with some praising and some scorning.

One of the young imperial doctors, completely ignoring the expression on the old man's face, stepped forward and smiled at Shen Dongsu:

"Princess Ling's ten prohibitions on epidemic prevention are very well written! And the things needed are common people's household items. I think it should be promoted as soon as possible."

Shen Dongsu looked at the first and only young imperial doctor who showed kindness to him, and asked with a chuckle: "I don't know your name, sir?"

He smiled and said: "My minister, Xu Yuanqing, has met Princess Ling."

"My lord, Xu is young and promising. My ten prohibitions on epidemic prevention are just scribbled down. Sir, could you come with me to talk to the emperor about publicity?"

"If you feel there is something to add, you can take the opportunity to write it down."

Xu Yuanqing smiled and said: "It's my honor!"

Without looking back, I knew that the director's face was almost as dark as the bottom of a pot. At the same time, he also commented in a moderately loud voice:

"Humph, the cure for the plague relies on real ability, not flattery."

Shen Dongsu and Xu Yuanqing both heard it, but neither of them looked back.

Huh, treating the plague does require real skills, but it’s not just talking on paper. You haven’t even seen the patient. Are you going to tell me how to cure it?

Before Shen Dongsu left the gate, Eunuch Zhu came and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Princess Xuanling, and the Chancellor are discussing the ten anti-epidemic restrictions."

Suddenly, the whole room fell silent, and Yuan Zheng's face turned red and green. He had rejected Princess Ling's show of kindness just now.

Unexpectedly, the emperor believed the ten anti-epidemic restrictions so quickly, and even asked him to discuss it together. If he didn't go, he would be resisting the order. If he went with him...

Xu Yuanqing was ridiculed for being a flatterer. What does it matter if he is gone?

At this time, Xu Yuanqing turned around and said with a smile: "Wei Yuanzheng, please come!"

Wei Yuanzheng glared at Xu Yuanqing, this kid should have been sent to the army to be a military doctor, instead of staying in Chang'an.

Wei Yuan was adjusting his clothes, and the three of them followed Eunuch Zhu to see the emperor.

The emperor looked at the ten anti-epidemic restrictions, his face improved a lot, and he asked: "Is this really useful?"

Wei Yuanzheng and Xu Yuanqing both looked at Shen Dongsu, and she answered openly: "Back to my father, this is just a precaution."

"It can certainly prevent the spread of plague, but it is useless if you are already infected."

The emperor immediately ordered: "Someone, please make ten thousand copies of this list and circulate it throughout the city."

He also praised Shen Dongsu: "Princess Ling is really good at medicine!"

Then he glared at the hospital director angrily: "Humph, it's been a day and a night, and the hospital has not yet come up with a charter!"

Wei Yuanzheng feels more and more that Princess Ling is extremely abominable. If you want to ask for reward in front of the emperor, there is no need to bring my entire hospital to serve as your foil!

He said hurriedly: "Back to the emperor, all the ministers are thinking of ways to cure the plague, but they have no time to think about prevention. I don't want to waste my time on this, Princess Ling."

Uh, why do these words sound so harsh?

Before Shen Dongsu could quarrel with him, the emperor said, "Then have you thought of any countermeasures?"

Wei Yuan was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "I really haven't thought of any countermeasures yet, but looking at Princess Ling's ten anti-epidemic measures, I should have some understanding of the plague."

"I wonder how the princess thinks it should be treated?"

Shen Dongsu felt a little tired. He didn't expect the situation in Taiyuan Hospital to be like this. This place was not a place dedicated to studying medical skills. It was just a small arena of overt and covert fighting!

Is it possible to cooperate with such a person? She thought she could cooperate with Tai Hospital to discuss a cure for the plague.

Unexpectedly, when Taiyin Hospital came up, she was beaten into the opposite camp, thinking that she was here to embarrass Taiyin Hospital and take the credit.

However, even if she was misunderstood, she still had to do what she should do.

The plague continues, and her family and friends may be infected.

Beyond that, she's a doctor and can't just sit back and do nothing.

So she said bluntly: "When I returned to my father's palace, I only saw the recorded cases. I had never personally diagnosed and treated a single patient, so I didn't dare to talk nonsense."

"My son asked my father for permission to allow me to diagnose and treat patients."

As soon as these words came out, the entire audience was stunned. The disgust on Imperial Physician Wei's face gradually faded and turned into admiration and ridicule.

It is true that the ignorant are fearless. If you go to diagnose and treat patients, then you cannot return to the East District. There is currently no cure for this plague.

If you are infected, you are certain to die. You are Princess Ling. Even if you hide in Prince Ling's mansion, no one will say anything to you.

Is this woman stupid, not afraid of death, or is she just trying to gain fame?

But the emperor felt that Shen Dongsu was brave and fearless. He had been waiting for an imperial doctor to propose that he go to the North District to diagnose and treat patients in person.

Instead of waiting for the imperial doctor sent to the North District to report back the cases.

Unexpectedly, after he waited for a whole day and night, no one of the imperial doctors present dared to raise the issue. Instead, it was his daughter-in-law, Princess Ling, who took the lead.

The emperor looked at Prince Ling and saw that his eyes were full of nervousness and surprise. It seemed that he did not know that Princess Ling had such a plan.

In other words, Princess Ling came up with this idea just after discussing it with the hospital staff.

The emperor looked at Shen Dongsu, his approval became more and more undisguised, but he did not intend to let Shen Dongsu go.

Too dangerous!

So the emperor said: "There are so many highly respected imperial doctors, why is there any need for a little girl like you to take risks?"

"Do you think so, Wei Yuanzheng?"
