The Prime Minister Seduced Me to Give Birth

Gu Yunjiao was also worried about heatstroke among the imperial guards, so as long as they stopped at the official post, she would make herbal tea for them.

The people in the flood discharge area have now moved to the vicinity of Yangzhou City, which is more than 500 miles away from Xiangcheng.

It took more than five hundred miles and five days to reach Yangzhou.

When we arrived outside Yangzhou City, we saw that the city gate was closed, and along the base of the city wall, there were shacks built by the common people everywhere. This was all because of the nearby villagers who had moved here because of the flood discharge.

The soldiers on the city wall saw officers and soldiers coming, and put down the hanging basket from above.

Gu Yunjiao handed the emperor's decree to the commander of the forbidden army, and the captain put the decree into the hanging basket.

Gu Yunjiao walked around and asked the people, "I'm a doctor, is there any one of you who is playing around?"

The people shook their heads.

Someone told Gu Yunjiao, "The sick people are concentrated at the Beicheng Gate, and our side is fine."

"On the way there, we cut down trees to stop them, and they couldn't get over."

Gu Yunjiao nodded and said nothing.

After a while, the city gate opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and the Imperial Army escorted Gu Yunjiao in two columns.

Some people near the city wall also rushed towards the city at this time.

The soldiers defending the city took up long spears and tried their best to drive the people away.

The people cried, "Sir, let's go in, we will get the disease even if we stay here."

The soldiers disregarded the crying people, drove the people away, retracted the drawbridge, and closed the gates of the city.

The Imperial Army first escorted Gu Yunjiao to the Yangzhou government office.

The prefect just got the news and hurriedly greeted him.

Gu Yunjiao and Wu Zhifu saw the ceremony, and she said straight to the point: "Find a few patients to come and show me, I want to determine what kind of disease they have."

Wu Zhifu said hesitantly: "I'm afraid this will not work."

"Doctor Gu doesn't know that this disease is contagious, and more and more people are infected. This official does not dare to open the city gate. If the people in this city also contract the disease, the situation will become more and more difficult to control."

At this time, Gu Yunjiao couldn't be 100% sure that these people were infected with malaria. She thought about it and asked, "Are all the people who are sick now outside the city?"

Wu Zhifu said: "The patients are all concentrated near the North City Gate and the West City Gate, and I haven't heard of anyone contracting the disease in the city."

Gu Yunjiao thought for a while, "Then I'll go out of the city to diagnose and treat patients."

The prefect of Wu knew the identity of Doctor Gu, and the officers and soldiers guarding the city had read the manual and had already reported it to him.

The prefect of Wu hesitated for a moment, "Here, Doctor Gu, once you leave the city, you won't be able to enter the city again. After all, if you bring the disease back to the city—"

Gu Yunjiao said, "If this disease is really what you said in your book, this disease is not contagious at all."

"No, I'm inaccurate, it's not through human-to-human contact."

"Because it's mosquitoes that spread the disease."

"Mosquitoes suck the blood of a sick person, and then bite a healthy person, and the healthy person will contract malaria."

Gu Yunjiao looked at Wu Zhifu with a half-smile, "Unless Lord Wu covers the entire Yangzhou with a mosquito net."

Wu Zhifu was a little anxious, "What should I do? Mosquitoes can fly when they grow wings. Maybe there are such mosquitoes in the city."

Gu Yunjiao pondered: "Everything will wait for me to see the patient first and then confirm it."

Wu Zhifu did not dare to take the risk himself, so he sent a cronie to take Gu Yunjiao out of the city through the north gate.

Gu Yunjiao left the color screen behind, and only brought two soldiers and Wu Zhifu's cronies out of the city.

She distributed homemade masks to several people, and instructed everyone to tie up their sleeves and trousers before leaving the North City Gate.
