Chapter 392

"Husband, the plague is dangerous; you had better not take the risk."

Liu Bei shook his head.

"I am a physician myself; the common people of Yuzhang are suffering from the plague, and I cannot stand by and watch them die."

The Qiao sisters were moved to tears.

"Lord Xuande, you are too benevolent."

Lu Lingqi grabbed Liu Bei.

"Husband, I want to go with you!"

Liu Bei glared at her.

"I am a physician and naturally know how to protect myself. You stay here honestly with Miss Yuan and the Qiao sisters."

"Alright then."

Liu Bei's body had been strengthened by the system, so he was naturally not afraid of the plague.

He called Guo Jia and the others in to announce this.

Everyone naturally requested to go together!

Liu Bei waved his hand.

"I am going to treat illnesses, not to fight a war. Yide, you are clumsy and rough; why are you going! Continue training the troops for me."

Zhang Fei squatted on the ground, sulking!

"And Fengxiao, you have so many concubines, your health is average; stay in Jiangbei honestly."

Guo Jia sighed that he couldn't compare to the health-preserving Jia Xu!

"Others, protect the common people well; I will just take Chen Dao with me."

Liu Bei looked at Zhang Fei again.

"Yide, there are many bandits and chaotic troops in the Xunyang area. Take the troops to wipe them out, do something for the common people, and train the troops by the way!"

Zhang Fei's eyes lit up.

"Understood!"

That night, Liu Bei took 1,000 personal guards, boarded a warship, and crossed the river to Yuzhang.

The wind and waves on the river at night were a bit strong.

Liu Bei didn't feel much, but some of the personal guards he brought were already turning pale; most of these soldiers were from the north, and let alone naval warfare, they were landlubbers.

Liu Bei shook his head secretly. In the future, there would be many naval battles when fighting in the south, so the navy must be established as soon as possible.

A graceful-looking cabin boy on the ship attracted Liu Bei's attention.

"Come here."

The sailor turned around and smiled embarrassedly.

"Is Lord Xuande calling me?"

Liu Bei??

"Little Qiao? How did you get on the ship?"

Little Qiao smiled with lowered brows.

"When Lord Xuande goes out, how can there be no maid to accompany and take care of him? So I went back, put down the guqin, and got on the ship."

Liu Bei was speechless.

"Does your sister know?"

"I left a letter."

Little Qiao said pitifully,

"Lord Xuande, you wouldn't make this young lady jump into the river and swim back, would you?"

Liu Bei looked her up and down.

"I can't tell, your swimming is this good; we'll have a chance to communicate later."

Little Qiao??

Just like that, Little Qiao stayed on the ship. Little Qiao chattered all the way, making Liu Bei's journey not very boring.

"Lord Xuande, I heard that you and your wife forced a marriage on Cai Yong to be together?"

Liu Bei was surprised.

"You know about this?"

Little Qiao covered her mouth and chuckled.

"That's natural; I've researched you very deeply."

Immediately, Little Qiao blushed; this was the person involved.

Liu Bei laughed loudly. This Little Qiao was actually his little fan girl; sorry about that, Zhou Lang!

The ship sailed for half a day and docked at the Nanchang County pier.

Taishi Ci had been waiting here for a long time.

"The plague in Yuzhang is serious; how could my lord come in person?"

Liu Bei smiled.

"Ziyi, it's not like you don't know my medical skills. Since I have come to Yuzhang, I cannot stand by and watch the people suffer without saving them."

Taishi Ci was moved beyond measure.

"My lord is benevolent!"

A middle-aged scholar in his forties stepped out from the crowd.

"Lord Xuande's benevolence is unparalleled; I admire you greatly!"

Taishi Ci hurriedly introduced him.

"My lord, this is the Governor of Yuzhang, Hua Xin."

Liu Bei smiled.

"So it is Brother Ziyu; I have long admired your great name."

After the two chatted,

Liu Bei roughly understood the situation.

The plague in the Peng Ze area was quite serious, with thousands already dead, and the local physicians were at their wits' end.

Liu Bei didn't waste words. After examining several common people who had contracted the plague, he had a plan in mind.

"No wonder those physicians couldn't cure it; it turns out there is not only a plague but also malaria. With two severe illnesses, it must be difficult to treat."

Liu Bei wrote down several prescriptions and had Taishi Ci send people to prepare them; he wanted to test which prescription was the most effective.

"A handful of wormwood, soaked in two sheng of water, squeezed to get the juice, and taken in full."

"This is the method to treat malaria; collect wormwood as soon as possible!"

"Understood!"

Liu Bei also discussed with Hua Xin,

"To avoid the scale of the plague expanding, common people who have contracted the plague must be separated from healthy common people."

"Those who have contracted the plague must also be distinguished according to mild cases, severe cases, and those who have already recovered."

"The common people's drinking water must be boiled before drinking, kept clean, to prevent the plague from rebounding!"

One thing after another was ordered down.

Hua Xin was amazed.

"Lord Xuande is not only unparalleled in benevolence, but his medical skills are also comparable to Bian Que; I admire you to the extreme!"

Under his guidance, Liu Bei went to see the seriously ill Liu Yao.

"Lord Xuande actually came in person."

Liu Yao was moved to tears. Since being defeated by Sun Ce, he had seen much of the warmth and coldness of human relationships. Liu Bei was a complete stranger to him, yet he helped him so much.

Liu Bei took his pulse and wrote two prescriptions.

"Brother Zhengli, your condition is relatively serious; you need to rest in bed for ten days to recover. Do not get too excited."

Liu Yao cried again. He had thought he was going to die this time, but he didn't expect he only needed to rest in bed for ten days...

"The gap between physicians and physicians is truly large!"

Liu Bei remembered that Liu Yao had indeed died of illness at this time, which meant he had saved Liu Yao's life.

Liu Bei came to a house in the city again.

A youth came out to greet him and bowed deeply.
