Chapter 383: Volunteering (Part )

In fact, the four people present knew it in their hearts. These reasons were not important. The most important thing was that the three of Sun's father and son could not all go to Pingzhou. At least one of them had to stay in Nanyang County to avoid any unexpected accidents.

"Brother, stay in the barracks. I'll go to Pingzhou." Sun Zelan took a deep breath and said firmly, "Brother, you haven't married yet. If the Sun family wants to pass on the incense, it depends on you. I'm a girl, I don't have such troubles. I'll go to Pingzhou with my father."

Sun Guangbai responded without thinking: "You are wrong. Women can also inherit the family line. If anything happens to me in Pingzhou, you can find a son-in-law and give the child the surname Sun."

Sun Zelan: "..."

"It's settled!" Doctor Sun said without hesitation: "Guangbai will go with me, and Zelan will stay."

Jiang Shaohua nodded: "Okay, I'll listen to Doctor Sun."

Sun Zelan's eyes turned red and tears flashed in her eyes.

Sun Guangbai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and handed it over, but Sun Zelan turned her head away angrily and ignored him.

Jiang Shaohua walked forward, took out his handkerchief and handed it to Sun Zelan. Sun Zelan sniffed and wiped her face with the handkerchief.

"Since you are back, stay with Doctor Sun in the mansion for a few days." Jiang Shaohua said softly, "Doctor Sun needs to prepare some medicinal materials to take with him, as well as his personal guards and food supplies. It will take at least five or six days before he can set off."

Sun Zelan responded with a heavy nasal tone.

Now that things have come to this, there is no need to say more. In the face of justice and life and death, everyone has his or her own choice and persistence.

Doctor Sun took his two children and left. Jiang Shaohua sat alone for a long time, with complex and intense emotions flashing in his eyes. He murmured, "Grandfather, I hope I didn't make the wrong decision."

……

Doctor Sun lost his wife in middle age, and he raised his two children by himself, and taught them medical skills himself. Although he occasionally made a scene, he actually had a very deep relationship with his two children.

After returning to the yard, Sun Zelan could no longer hold back and started crying, covering her face with her sleeves.

Seeing his sister so sad, Sun Guangbai felt bad and whispered, "Sister, I am the eldest son in the family, a male. When encountering such a big event, I should be the one to go."

"I want to go too." Sun Zelan cried, "Can't the three of us go together? Curing the plague is a great achievement and will go down in history. If anything happens, our family can go to hell together..."

"Don't say such depressing words!" Imperial Physician Sun interrupted his daughter, "The princess is already in a difficult situation. If you hear this, how would you feel? You have grown up. You should be prudent in what you say and do. Don't act like a naughty child."

Sun Zelan still held the princess's handkerchief in her hand. She bit her lips hard, leaving a deep mark on her lower lip.

Doctor Sun sighed, slowed down his voice, and reached out to touch his daughter's hair: "It's settled, don't think about it anymore. Take advantage of these few days, let's have a good reunion. After we separate, I don't know how long it will take to reunite. Don't be angry with dad."

Sun Zelan responded with sobs.

Doctor Sun looked at Sun Guangbai again and said, "Guangbai, for so many years, I have always been strict with you and often beat and scolded you. Don't bear a grudge in your heart. This time when we go back to Pingzhou, we, father and son, will work together to develop a prescription as soon as possible."

Sun Guangbai's nose was also a little sour, but he couldn't help but sneer: "Father, please talk to me like you used to! I'm not used to you being so nice and gentle." Doctor Sun was so angry that he glared at him and said, "Go to the study and copy all the plague prescriptions recorded in the medical books. If you can't copy them well, you won't be able to sleep tonight."

Sun Guangbai's scalp tingled. He didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore and went to the study immediately.

Sun Zelan wiped her tears and went into the study with her brother to work.

The Sun family is a top medical family in Daliang, with a long history of family learning and a rich collection of medical books. In this generation, Doctor Sun followed the King of Nanyang to Nanyang County to settle down, and simply brought all the medical books with him. If he couldn't bring any, he copied one. He also collected a copy of any medical books that were circulated on weekdays.

Plagues have existed since ancient times, but proven effective prescriptions for preventing and treating plagues are rare. The brother and sister stayed up all night, flipping through a third of the medical book, and only found two prescriptions that might be useful.

Over the next few days, the brother and sister stayed in the study room looking for and copying prescriptions.

Doctor Sun was busy writing prescriptions and going to various pharmacies to count the medicinal materials. He took all the commonly used medicinal materials. He also took some rare and precious medicinal materials. He even took two hundred-year-old wild ginsengs that could prolong life. There were more than ten carriages loaded with medicinal materials.

Chen Changshi's memorials and letters have been sent to the capital.

Feng Changshi led the household department to work for several days and nights to prepare all the food and supplies needed for the trip. Tang Youyin was so busy that his eyes were red, his feet were weak when he walked, and he yawned every time he opened his mouth.

Before departure, there was a not-so-small accident.

Lin Huiniang, Shanxing and others also returned to the palace and wanted to go to Pingzhou with Dr. Sun and his son.

"Princess, Imperial Doctor Sun and Military Doctor Sun are going to Pingzhou to treat the plague, and they need help." Lin Hui Niang knelt in front of the princess, with an earnest look on her face: "I have been learning from Miss Sun for more than three years. I know all the medicinal herbs and can make medicine. They will definitely come in handy."

Shan Xing opened her big, clear eyes and said, "Princess, I can treat external injuries and boil medicine."

There were also several women who volunteered.

Sun Zelan's eyes were filled with tears. Half of the women who came out of the bandit's den that day followed her to learn medicine. After more than three years, they have more or less learned some skills and can be medicine boys. There are a total of six people in front of her, just half of them have come.

Without asking, I knew that they made this decision after discussion. Half of them were left in the military camp, and the others followed Dr. Sun and his son to Pingzhou.

Going to a place where the plague is prevalent means a life-or-death experience. They are risking their lives to repay the princess.

Jiang Shaohua's eyes also felt a little hot.

Since her rebirth, she has been working hard to change her fate. Life is like a journey, and during this journey, she saved some people. Now they want to repay her with their lives.

Should she refuse or agree?
Seeing that the princess remained silent, Lin Hui Niang immediately said, "We have made up our minds. Please agree to this, Princess."

"Princess, please let us go! I'm not afraid of death, let alone the plague." Shanxing opened her eyes wide and spoke in a serious tone.

Sun Zelan calmed down and even spoke up for them: "They have learned from me for a few years. They can treat simple injuries and boil medicine. Let them go! They will definitely be useful."

Jiang Shaohua's eyes swept across the familiar faces: "Okay, this princess allows you to go with me."
