Chapter 1352: Warclouds Rise 163
e could wait a few more days to go out, it would be best."My lord."Feng Lingxi came to Dugu City's study, looking at Dugu City who was studying a map with Ye Xi, "Are you free""Ye Xi, go out first."Fe..."Are you sure you said those things"
Ye Xi hurriedly swore, "How dare a subordinate deceive the Prince If Your Highness doesn't believe me, you can ask Lu Gongzi and the soldiers here, as well as Xiao Li and the others. They all heard it. I spoke very loudly at the time, and they all heard."
"Indeed, he said those words at the time and had his soldiers stand guard outside without saying anything else."
Lu Nian stood as a witness for Ye Xi, but the aura she exuded truly intimidated all the patients present.
"Your Majesty, I truly did nothing to them. When I arrived, these people were shouting loudly and seemed ready to fight the doctors. I was afraid the patients would harm the physicians, so I shouted at them to stop. They can all testify to this."
Ye Xi's explanation immediately drew agreement from Lu Nian standing beside her, "I can vouch for that, it's true."
These patients, having been misled by rumors, are understandably agitated. I don't blame you, but they're so frightened now that it's unlikely they can provide any useful information. "Feng Lingxi walked towards the doctor's tent, watching the busy figures of the doctors. They hadn't had a proper rest in ages, working tirelessly for these patients. Now with the death of some patients, everyone felt heavy-hearted.
"Li Su, I can't get them to explain the situation. Maybe later you can ask them to tell you about their own condition so I can prescribe medicine for them."
Feng Lingxi looked at Li Su. During this time, he had been following her, and he was basically familiar with all the prescriptions for these plagues. He understood how to use them, which had a great effect.
Li Su glanced at the patients over there, "Your Highness need not inquire personally. These patients fear death more than anyone. If they were truly unwell, they would have been crying and screaming long ago, afraid we wouldn't hear them. Their behavior is merely a pretense due to Your Highness's situation, designed to make you feel guilty. Don't pay any mind."
“They…”
Feng Lingxi glanced over there, somewhat incredulous. She treated these patients like this, and they were acting this way towards her because of Gao Yi
The guilt they once felt vanished instantly, replaced by a chill in their heart.
"Your Majesty, our medicine is actually effective. They have shown some improvement after taking it. It's just that they were agitated before and ran around everywhere. But rest assured, they didn't go to the area with critically ill patients. They are afraid of death; they just made a fuss. Please be at ease."
Li Su saw through everything and soothed Feng Ling Xi. Learning that the medicine was working, Feng Ling Xi's mind flashed with a prescription. She hurriedly said, "Li Su, I remember seeing a prescription in an ancient book. Let me write it down. You can decoct the medicine and have them take it to see the effect."
Feng Ling hurried over there, wrote down the prescription, and after finishing, carefully recalled it to make sure there were no mistakes before handing the prescription to Li Su.
"Please dispense the medication according to this prescription and let me know if there are any issues or changes in their condition."
Feng Lingxi finished her instructions and then entered the tent she had set up. Looking at the piles of ancient medical books, Feng Lingxi sat down and began to flip through them. Du Gu Cheng watched Feng Lingxi like this, frowned, and asked, "Xier, there's something this king has always been wondering about. Would you mind sharing it"
Feng Ling Xi responded and bowed her head, continuing to flip through the pages.
Inside the tent, there were only Dugu City and Feng Lingxi. After hesitating for a long time, Dugu City finally asked out his doubts.
"Did Xier learn her medical skills herself, or were they already common knowledge in your time"
Feng Ling's movements froze slightly in her hand. She looked up at Dugu Cheng, a question in her eyes. "Do you think my medical skills are real or fake"
"Of course it's true, Your Majesty is just curious. Does everything come naturally to you"
"I studied medicine, but it's not all Chinese medicine, so I need to make some adjustments."
Feng Lingxi hesitated for a moment before explaining, looking at Dugucheng's furrowed brows, she said lightly, "The medical skills are real, but they can't do everything."
This is the simplest explanation, and it's one that Dugu City can understand.
"Xier knows so much. In fact, this king has always been curious, in your time, were there many men who liked a woman like Xier"
"Man"
Feng Lingxi raised an eyebrow. She didn't have the time or inclination to fall in love. Didn't she come here because she finally had some free time
"You are my first man."
Feng Ling Xi's words caught Du Gu Cheng's attention, his eyes gleaming. "Really"
Wind Ling Xi looked at the joy in Du Gu Cheng's eyes, "Is there anything else you want to ask"
He didn't even care what time it was, and as he kept asking questions, they began to change.
Dugu Cheng shook his head, the smile in his eyes could be squeezed out of water. The first man, this means that Xi'er only loved him. It seems that Xi'er is like him, focusing on one relationship. It's good this way, so he won't worry about someone snatching her away.
Feng Lingxi's newly developed medicine had a very noticeable effect. Coupled with the fact that patients couldn't move around freely now and could take their medicine peacefully, although there were still deaths every day, the patients all followed Feng Lingxi's instructions and took the medicine. Those who were stronger physically and had milder symptoms saw improvement after a few days of taking the medicine, and gradually recovered.
With the patients showing improvement, they began to acknowledge Feng Lingxi's medical skills and cooperate more with her treatment. This brought relief to Feng Lingxi, who diligently prepared medicines for them, hoping for their complete recovery.
With the help of Dugucheng, Tumu Town came under his control. The people were all obedient, and those arrogant big families dared not provoke Dugucheng, the King of Border Guards. After the Gao Yi incident, even those connected to officials in the capital city became more restrained.
Feng Lingxi's research resulted in a medicine that significantly improved the prognosis of the plague. Patients with mild symptoms recovered after taking the medication for three days, showing no signs of illness. Moderate-symptom patients recovered within five days of treatment. For severe cases, it took ten to half a month to improve to moderate symptoms, and the mortality rate decreased considerably. The plague in Tumu Town gradually came under control.
"Xier, these patients just need to take their medicine here. Shouldn't we withdraw"
Lu Nian walked in and saw Feng Lingxi still staring at the medical books, frowning. He had just received news that their Western Ancient Country's princess had come to find Feng Lingxi. It was all his mother's fault for spreading word about Feng Lingxi's good qualities after returning home, making the palace both inside and out almost worship Feng Lingxi as a god. And he got the message from his father that the princess was too curious, so she came to seek Feng Lingxi.
"While the plague has subsided, patients are still present. We need to cure it completely and gradually return to normal."
Lu Nian walked to Feng Lingxi's side, her eyes full of apology.
"Xier, brother is sorry to you."
"What's wrong"
Hearing Lu Nian's voice full of guilt, Feng Lingxi looked up and saw Lu Nian's clouded eyes, feeling a little flustered.
"Won't your parents be here again"
"They didn't come, but a princess came to cause you trouble."
>identity, Xiao Li tugged at his sleeve, reminding him, which saved him."You all go down."Dugu City spoke, and the people guarding the door all stepped aside. Only then did Dugu City say, "Let's go tog...
