With the decision made, the two counties in the capital posted announcements about the free clinic. County Magistrate Tang even went out of his way to inform the Land Officers in each ward and sent constables to the countryside to notify all the villages. To prevent them from coming in vain, he even arranged staggered times for their visits.
County Magistrate Guo initially only intended to post announcements, but upon hearing the thoroughness of County Magistrate Tang's efforts, he decided to follow suit.
Thus, on the morning of January 18th, as soon as the city gates opened, many people hurried into the city despite the cold, with some even carrying people on wooden boards.
The guards at the gate, seeing so many people carrying others into the city for the first time, couldn't help but ask more questions.
A man carrying a pale and frail woman explained, "I heard the Taiyi Bureau is hosting a free clinic with imperial doctors present, so I brought my wife to have a look."
