Dad, we are so stable, should we do something?

Master Xia, it's almost midnight, we can start our move." Li Er stood outside the carriage and quietly reminded Master Xia who was sleeping inside.

"Yeah, okay, ha." After yawning, Xia Ye got off the carriage carefully, holding a box in his hand. "Li Er, take this box. You saw the things inside this afternoon. Take two brothers with you. Use a wooden stick to push it more towards the center of the river. Be careful too. Use wormwood to remove the smell after handling it. We will wait for you inside. When you come back, I will give each of you a bowl of medicine. Don't get everyone into trouble."

"Yes, Master Xia, you understand with a smile." After saying that, Li Er took the box and called two of his men to go upstream.

"Let's go inside. The two of you go find some dry branches to start a fire. Come over to me later to get this medicine bag and boil it. Boil two bowls of water into one bowl. Boil more so that it's enough for all of us. Otherwise, by the time this is done, we'll be left with no one." Grandpa Xia casually pointed at the two people beside him and asked them to find firewood to start a fire and boil the medicine.

"Yes, Master Xia." The two of them quickly went down to work.

"Everyone else is watching outside in case anyone comes."

"It's Master Xia."

The medicine was ready after about half an hour. Master Xia asked everyone to drink it, and then waited for Li Er and others to come back.

After a while, Li Er came back with his men, "Master Xia, we are back."

"Don't come over yet. Each of you drink a bowl of the medicine in the jar on the ground. You can take a carriage tonight and rest for a while. We will leave immediately.

Soon Li Er and his men finished drinking the medicine, and the rest of the people waited for them to finish their work before getting on the carriage and heading towards the capital. On the way, they sent one person to the prefectural city.

In Hu County, Magistrate Tian started vomiting in the second half of the night, and his body ached and he had a high fever. Mrs. Tian sent someone to invite a doctor to her house. When the doctor arrived, Tian Xing'er and the others realized that Magistrate Tian was in trouble, so they hurried over.

"Madam, Doctor Ge is here." The servant invited Doctor Ge to the mansion. Doctor Ge was one of the best doctors in the county, and he was a kind-hearted doctor.

"Doctor Ge, please come here quickly. My husband started vomiting for some reason in the second half of the night. He then developed a high fever and is now talking nonsense. Doctor, please save my husband."

Doctor Ge entered the bedroom and went to the bedside. After listening to Mrs. Tian's description, he began to check County Magistrate Tian's symptoms. After the examination, Doctor Ge's face became a little ugly, and he confirmed the pulse again.

At this moment, several children from the Tian family came in.

"Don't come in yet, just stand outside." Doctor Ge suddenly spoke.

They didn't know what was going on for a moment, so they had to do as they were told.

"Doctor, how is my father?" Tian Xing'er was feeling uneasy at this time. Ever since Jiu Ye started yelling at Guozi in the evening, she always felt that something was going to happen.

"Lord Tian should have been infected with smallpox. Because he has been overworked recently and has not had enough rest, his energy and spirit are unstable, and the smallpox symptoms have directly broken out. Although it is in the early stages, Lord Tian is weak now, and I am afraid it is a bit dangerous."

"What? It's smallpox!" The Tian family was all shocked.

"Doctor, how come my father suddenly got infected with smallpox? Please think of a solution." Tian Xing'er was confused for a moment. Smallpox was the plague of this era and it could be fatal. Her father was so healthy and would definitely be fine.

"There's nothing I can do at the moment. It all depends on Lord Tian's fate. In addition, several people in our room have come into contact with Lord Tian and may be infected. Madam, please quarantine all those who have had direct contact with him today. I may also have to be quarantined here with you for a few days to see how he gets. I had it when I was young, so I'm not afraid. But you, madam, need to be careful. You have to wear a face towel when you take care of County Magistrate Tian these days." Doctor Ge sighed.

"Okay, we will listen to you, doctor. Fortunately, my husband came back late today, and the children didn't get to see him. He also came just now. Just tell us what you want us to do, and we will do it."

"We need to isolate Lord Tian here, find someone to serve him, and isolate the others separately."

"Okay, I'll give the order right now."

Then, as requested by Doctor Ge, Mrs. Tian brought several people who had direct contact with County Magistrate Tian today to the courtyard here for isolation. Mrs. Tian was worried about Lord Tian, ​​so she stayed to take care of him personally, and left all the matters outside to Tian Yuheng to handle.

Tian Xing'er's mind was blank at this time and she didn't know what to do. Tian Yuze had already started to help his second brother Tian Yuheng.

Tian Fuer suddenly burst into tears. "Dad, wuwuwu."

"Fu'er, don't cry. Come back with your second brother first. Let's go." Tian Yuheng looked at his two sisters, suppressed the grief in his heart, and took the two sisters back to the room. Tian Xing'er and Tian Yuze followed their second brother quietly all the way.

He came to Aunt Liu first, "Aunt, please take good care of Fu'er. She is emotionally unstable now."

"What's wrong with Fu'er? Why are you crying like this after coming back? My dear Fu'er, what's wrong with you?" Aunt Liu asked worriedly.

"Aunt, calm down first. Take care of Fu'er first. I'll send Xing'er and the others back first, and then I'll talk to you."

"Okay, you guys send Xing'er back first."

After saying this, they left and went all the way to Xing'er's courtyard. Xing'er didn't say anything either.

"Xing'er, how are you? Say something. If you feel upset, tell your second brother or younger brother." Seeing that Xing'er was completely different from usual, Tian Yuheng was very worried.

"Brother, I'm fine. You and I should go back quickly. I'll go back to my room when I get there. I'm just having a hard time accepting it. I'm tired. I'll be fine tomorrow after I go back to sleep. You should go back and rest early, too. You've been tired all night and you have to get up early tomorrow."

"Okay, let's go back first." Tian Yuheng said and left with Tian Yuze. After sending Tian Yuze back, Tian Yuheng didn't say anything, but patted him on the shoulder and said, "It will be fine. Believe in second brother, believe in father, he will be blessed by heaven."

"Well, second brother, I also believe in father. I'm fine. You should go back and rest early."

After the two brothers separated, Tian Yuheng returned to the small courtyard of Tian Fuer and Aunt Liu. At this time, Aunt Liu almost knew what had happened. Tian Yuheng comforted Aunt Liu with a few words, telling her not to worry and not to go to the lady's courtyard, as it was now isolated and she should not go there.

An hour earlier tonight,

"Young Master, Uncle Fu's men are here to see you." Tian Ping suddenly knocked on Tian Yuyu's door at 12:00 p.m.

"Okay, call him over." Tian Yuyu had just laid down to sleep when he heard a knock on the door.

Soon Tian Ping brought people to Tian Yuyu's room.

"Hello, young master. I am Li Gui, a subordinate of Uncle Fu. I came to see you tonight because I have something important to tell you."

"If anything happens, just tell me."

"Yes, Master. Because the city has been closed recently, I couldn't contact Uncle Fu and the others, so I sent a few people to guard the city gates. They just came back to report that the South Gate suddenly opened tonight, and several trucks came in. They followed all the way and found that they arrived at a warehouse at the South Gate of the He Mansion. Our people secretly went in to check and found that they were all medicinal herbs. The total amount of these medicinal herbs is more than double that of all the medical clinics in the city. I think this matter is a bit strange, so I came to inform you."
