There are three checkpoints in the Emperor's Manor, and at the last one, no one other than the people from the Imperial Hospital is allowed to enter or exit. Once someone enters to undergo the smallpox inoculation, unless it is confirmed that the pox has erupted and healed, they cannot leave.
Inside, rooms have been built, but it's not for individual accommodation. Each room houses six people, and there are about fifty newly built rooms.
Currently, half of them are occupied, not only by selected inoculation test subjects but also by servants waiting for orders.
The Imperial Hospital has set up a courtyard here. The main hall is for meetings, with the pharmacy and consultation rooms on either side. Everything inside is well-prepared, with most necessities ready.
The western and eastern wings are for accommodation. When Director Xiao and the others come to inspect, they must also change their clothes here before entering.
