Chapter 503

The so-called Guannei Circuit actually refers to Chang'an, the capital of the Great Tang!

Besides Chang'an City, it also includes Luoyang and a series of other important Great Tang towns.

More than half of the noble families and population resources of the Great Tang are gathered in the Guannei Circuit.

Calculated by population density, if a smallpox outbreak occurs, the death toll is estimated to reach hundreds of thousands!

This is not the most important thing!

Once smallpox breaks out in Chang'an City, it means the political situation will become even more turbulent.

The Great Tang was already in a precarious state, and now it is facing this kind of catastrophic disaster.

How could Li Er not be desperate?

"Mu'er, smallpox is a terrible plague; once infected, there is basically no cure. We must come up with a treatment plan quickly."

Zhangsun Wugou also looked tense.

As the Empress of the Great Tang, she naturally understood the severity of smallpox.

"Yes, husband. This is not a small matter; if smallpox is allowed to spread, the consequences will be unimaginable."

Li Xueyan on the side was also extremely anxious.

"It seems there are too many people in the north, and many corpses haven't been dealt with in time, and many have already started to rot. The source of the disease should have spread from these corpses."

Wu Meiniang analyzed calmly.

The Turkic cavalry went south and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of northern people!

Everywhere in the north, there were mountains of bones.

In many places, there was simply no way to deal with so many corpses, so they could only let them rot gradually.

These rotting corpses spread the virus slowly through rivers or the air, leading to the plague outbreak today!

"Brother-in-law, then we should deal with the corpses as soon as possible! Otherwise, wouldn't the plague be even harder to control?" Changle's small face was full of anxiety.

She knew she couldn't compare to the abilities of Zhangsun Wugou, Li Xueyan, and Wu Meiniang, but she also hoped to contribute.

"Go, return to the palace!"

Qin Mu waved his hand and led everyone toward Youzhou City.

However!

Li Er and Fang Xuanling did not want to follow them.

The two of them were guests of the Great Qin in name, but their actual identities were still envoys of the Great Tang.

When Li Er and Fang Xuanling first came to the Great Qin, they had already clearly told Qin Mu that they were here specifically to learn under the orders of the Great Tang Emperor.

That is to say.

When the Great Tang encounters any danger, the two of them can return at any time.
