Gao Yi followed Feng Ling Xi to the slums. Watching Feng Ling Xi attend to the sick here, personally asking about their ailments, with no trace of disgust, even though the patients' food and supplies were provided for free by the government.

All the doctors in this city are orderly and work with discipline, making everything here clean and tidy.

"Your Majesty, that man from Gao Yi is still watching us."

Let him watch.

This Gao Yi simply wants her to agree to treat his son, and what she needs is the grain he has. Since Gao Yi only has one son, he will definitely compromise.

"Your Highness, he's here."

Xiaoli looked at Gao Yi walking towards Feng Lingxi, and whispered a reminder.

Feng Lingxi responded, bringing the medicine in her hand to Xiao Li. "Pass it out and have the patients take their medicine promptly, and continue recording."

"Lady of the Chen Wang."

Gao Yi walked to Feng Ling Xi's presence, looking at everyone here wearing face masks, he covered his mouth and asked, "Since there are so many patients here anyway, can you also send my son here After all, it doesn't make much difference whether there is one more patient or not."

“That won’t do, Young Master Gao is of noble status and cannot be compared to these commoners.”

Hearing this from Gao Yi, Feng Ling Xi really felt that Gao Yi was not a human being. His own son, he actually wanted to abandon him here This man must be incredibly stingy.

"If he's not honorable, just treat him as a patient here."

"That won't do! The patients here are all treated for free by the government. Someone like Young Master Gao is not suitable to be here. He should stay at his own home. Also, I want to remind Master Gao that this illness is contagious. With Young Master Gao in the manor, you have to be careful yourselves and don't blame me for not warning you. If anyone gets infected, it will cause a lot of trouble."

Feng Lingxi finished speaking, Gao Yi was frightened and hurriedly took two steps back. Looking at the yamen servants and maidservants walking around, he felt as if they were all infected with a plague.

Feng Lingxi's eyes swept over, "Mr. Gao should still go back quickly, it's not safe here."

Gao Yi pointed at the mask on her face.

"Could I have one of these, please"

Feng Lingxi looked at the maidservant beside her, "Give Master Gao one, just calculate it as one tael of silver."

"This, it costs money too" Gao Yi instantly became unwilling.

Of course, and especially expensive. Unless Master Gao works here as a volunteer for free, you can wear it for free like them.

Gao Yi glanced at the face mask the maid brought, but he still couldn't bear to spend a few silver coins. He turned and left.

"This Gao Yi is really stingy, he can't even bear to spend money on this."

Lu Nian walked over from there, watching Gao Yi walk away, "This child doesn't care about his life, he doesn't even care about his own safety. I really don't know what he wants the money for."

"You'll regret this sooner or later. Forget about him, go record the other patients first and come back later."

This has been going on for several days. Lu Nian has helped her quite a bit. Now that I think about it, it's a good thing Lu Nian came along at the beginning. Otherwise, she would have had enough trouble with these medicinal materials.

"Young master Gao, you really won't treat him"

Lu Nian curiously looked at her younger sister. Since she knew her, she had never seen her so fierce. She must have just been scaring Gao Yi, right

“He didn’t say he wouldn’t treat him, only that if the other party was willing to provide food, then it would depend on whether he wanted to treat his son.”

Lu Nian raised an eyebrow, "If this gets out, people might say you're not competent."

"They have mouths, and when I healed them they all praised me. Besides, this Gao Yi is hoarding grain in the granary and won't release it. Doesn't he know that Tumu Town is short of food He doesn't care about his people starving, so why should I care about his son"

Seeing Lu Nian frown, Feng Lingxi added, "I'm just like this by nature. Whether I get used to it or not, I won't treat him if he doesn't provide supplies."

Lu Nian gave her a thumbs-up. "That's well said, you have personality, I like it."

Feng Lingxi rolled her eyes. "Let's not talk about this. I'll ask Li Su later and see if there are any improvements in the critical care unit. It's been two days of medication, and we need to report the condition promptly so I know what's going on."

"I'll be right there."

"Be careful."

Lu Nian turned his head and made a gesture to her before passing by.

Feng Lingxi was just finishing reading yesterday's medical report when she heard a commotion. She looked up curiously and saw someone rushing over in a panic.

"Your Highness, someone is dead."

Feng Lingxi's expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly walked over. "Take me there quickly."

In the critical care ward, a corpse lay on the ground, its mouth full of blood, and it was lifeless. Lu Nian stood not far away. Just as he checked, the man suddenly vomited blood. He turned his head and saw the man twitch a few times before becoming motionless. When he walked forward, he discovered that the man was dead.

Feng Ling rushed over and saw Lu Nian standing there, staring at the corpse. He quickly stepped forward and tugged on his sleeve, asking, "You didn't touch him, did you"

Lu Nian shook her head. "No, as soon as I got there, he vomited blood, twitched a few times and died. He didn't move, so I went over to check his pulse, but he was already gone."

Feng Lingxi couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, "It's good you didn't touch it, go wash your hands quickly."

Lu Nian nodded, seeing Feng Lingxi worried about him, he didn't dare to worry her, so he went to wash his hands first.

Feng Lingxi checked the deceased, looking at the blood on the ground, still mixed with phlegm. It seemed he died from chest tightness and coughing up blood.

"Aren't we going to die too" Someone said, and the patients began to panic. Some became agitated, their emotions running high, even coughing up blood from fear, which caused the surrounding patients to panic even more.

What are you doing

Feng Lingxi stood up and sternly rebuked, "This disease can be fatal, but if you continue to panic like this, even if I give you medicine to treat it, it will be useless."

The patients were so frightened that they burst into tears, scrambling to grab Feng Lingxi, but they were scared back by the guards who drew their swords.

“All of you, keep your spirits up. This disease can be fatal, but you must believe in yourselves. After taking the medicine, tell the doctor about your symptoms. I will prescribe medication based on your condition. As long as you take the medicine obediently, this plague can be cured.”

"Really can cure it"

Patients stared at the corpse on the ground, their eyes filled with fear.

"Yes, as long as you believe and obediently take your medicine while maintaining a positive attitude, you will definitely recover."

The patients looked at Feng Lingxi's eyes full of confidence and nodded, "Listen to the Princess."

Now, everyone get back to your positions and adjust your mindset. We'll take the medicine shortly.

Feng Ling comforted them, watching as they all lay back down. The blood stains on the ground were so glaring that it made her feel uneasy. This was the first death she had encountered since arriving here. If such an incident happened again, she feared that before she could solve this plague, the patients' mental state would completely collapse.

>g, not daring to speak another word."Fourth Princess, here's the heater for you."Tian Xiaomi wove a portable stove out of bamboo for Feng Ling Xi. Inside, there were some charcoal briquettes, convenie...
