Horse hooves sounded, and the wind outside also picked up.
I hurriedly hurriedly and slowly, but in the end I couldn't get to the guardhouse before the heavy rain came down.
After getting out of the carriage, Xie Songhua felt a little embarrassed when he saw his brother who was soaked in water.
He quickly asked someone to make ginger soup for him and several Jin Yiwei.
The fourth prince was waiting at the door to welcome them in.
He squinted his eyes and saw Xie Songhua and quickly pulled her inside, "Miss Xie, you're here. Go and have a look. These people don't know what's going on, but they just don't look good."
Before he could step out, he was grabbed.
The fourth prince turned around and realized it was Xiao Yu. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "Uncle Wang, why are you here..."
"Didn't you say you have something important to tell me?"
The fourth prince looked at him and then at Xie Songhua, "I'll deal with Miss Xie first..."
"Don't other people know this?" Xiao Yu frowned slightly, with a hint of impatience between his brows and eyes, "Can't you just find someone to take her there?"
As soon as he said these words, excited guards came over and respectfully led Xie Songhua to the tents of the sick soldiers.
Xiao Yu turned to the Jin Yiwei behind him and said, "Two of you will follow."
Jin Yiwei immediately took the order and followed him.
The fourth prince looked a little confused. After being confused for a while, he led Xiao Yu to his residence.
After Xie Songhua entered the big tent, he did not dare to delay and immediately started to check their situation.
After going around in a circle, what puzzled her was that the symptoms of these people were no different from those of the epidemic, and most of the people here had severe symptoms.
Moreover, there are quite a few cases where the symptoms are relieved and they are about to go out, but then they suddenly become sick again.
Xie Songhua had no choice but to record their conditions one by one, and then add or subtract to adjust the amounts of various medicinal materials as appropriate.
Xiaoqing and Cuiliu had been busy in the medicine hall over there. It was not until dark that Xiaoqing rushed over.
When Xie Songhua returned to the tent specially prepared for her, Xiaoqing had already packed all her things and put a bucket of hot water in the middle of the tent.
Seeing this bucket of hot water, Xie Songhua burst into tears. What could be happier than taking a comfortable hot bath?
After all, these days, she has been fighting for the bathroom with Xiao Yu. Although she is fighting unilaterally, she always thinks that the other party is waiting at the door, which makes her heart uneasy, and naturally she cannot wash up.
The sound of raindrops hitting the tent sounded very healing.
She didn't know what the tent was made of, but it was raining outside, but it wasn't damp inside at all, so she slept very comfortably.
Before dawn the next day, she went to the big tent where the patient was, but the situation was still not good.
Seeing that some of them were so feverish that they were about to die, Xie Songhua could only suppress them with silver needles first, and then quickly prepared several new prescriptions.
Fortunately, there are sufficient reserves of medicinal materials here, and after drinking the medicinal soup, the situation has eased.
Several military doctors were now sitting together with Xie Songhua. Xie Songhua could not help but frown deeply when he looked at the things they handed over.
Several prescriptions for treating epidemic diseases have been passed down long ago, and some daily protective measures have also been explained.
It can be seen that everything is done according to her request. From this point of view, it should be completely unethical for such a thing to happen.
After much thought, Xie Songhua decided to visit various places by himself.
It is still cloudy today, but it has not cleared up and looks a bit hazy.
Xie Songhua led a few people from the kitchen, to the purchasing office, then to the washing office, several wells in the guardhouse, and the cemetery where dead soldiers were buried.
After reading it, Xie Songhua felt more and more strange that there was no problem everywhere.
They were disinfected in strict accordance with the plan she had drawn up before. The remains of soldiers who died due to the epidemic were cremated and then buried, and all excrement was treated in lime pits.
So what exactly is the problem?
For ordinary non-aerosol-borne diseases, the most terrifying thing is not the treatment of the disease, but the lack of prevention and control of the source and route of infection.
The epidemic in Dengzhou is not spread through the air, but is spread from hand to mouth. Therefore, if protection is taken, even if a doctor comes in contact, the probability of infection is low.
Dengzhou City and those towns and villages quickly controlled the further spread of the disease through scientific management methods.
But now, the method that was effective before has obviously become unreasonable here.
The fourth prince heard about what happened and rushed over. Seeing her frown, he comforted her: "Fortunately, your newly prepared medicine is still effective so far. It will be stable for at least two days, so there is no need to rush.
"
Xie Songhua smiled at him, thanked him for his comfort, and only glanced behind him subconsciously.
The fourth prince seemed to know what she meant, "Uncle Wang went up to the mountain. He dealt with a few troublemakers last night, and now everyone has calmed down."
"What are you going to do in the mountains?" Hearing this, Xie Songhua looked at the mountains to the west of the guardhouse and was very puzzled.
The fourth prince pointed towards the other side, "I heard that you have been busy all day. The scenery here is not bad, why not take a walk?"
I have indeed been busy all day today, and now that I can't find the crux of the problem, I am really a little irritated.
It rained yesterday, but it is still cloudy today, but it is tending to clear up. The air smells moist and comfortable.
The fourth prince pointed to the mountain road not far away from them: "On the other side of the mountain is Dapan Town, which is where the commotion started. The situation there is not good, but the residents of the town have spontaneously established a self-defense force to fight against the government.
During this period, I have been trying to communicate with them, but I can't get their trust."
How can we gain trust when so many people have died?
Who knows whether this coming is a rescue or a butcher's knife?
Xie Songhua remained silent, and the fourth prince continued: "The matter of Zhao Qingshan and Qin Sheng has basically been confirmed, but in order to settle this case, properly appeasing and handling the affairs of Dapan Town is the only way to go.
Uncle Wang went up to check the terrain."
Hearing this, Xie Songhua couldn't help but be startled, "A hard attack? They are just a group of ordinary people. How can they resist the army's advance? Doesn't that mean more casualties?"
The fourth prince also frowned tightly, "Zhao Qingshan did not come out of nowhere to suppress the bandits. There are indeed several bandits in the deep mountains at the other end of Dapan Town, and their strength is not weak.
He came here with the emperor's order, but he brought people into the mountain several times without success. Instead, he lost his troops and generals. Over there in the capital..."
He paused and changed his words, "That's why I had such a crooked idea and caused such a huge disaster. If we hadn't sent people here to guard the entrance of the town, I really don't know what would have happened.
Which step."...
Xie Songhua listened to her words and after a moment's thought, he understood the meaning behind his words, "What the Fourth Prince means is that the people of Dapan Town will collude with those bandits?"
The fourth prince looked at her deeply, and then sighed for a long time: "I hope not!"
No matter how bad Zhao Qingshan was, the soldiers he brought with him were still soldiers from the imperial court. How could the bandits who had made him gain nothing several times be ordinary bandits?
Moreover, Dapan Town is just an ordinary town. If such a big thing happened, it is impossible that the news could not spread inside.
The fourth prince said so, I'm afraid there is direct evidence to prove this.
What about those innocent people inside?
"Okay, do you feel a little better after taking a walk? If you can't find it today, there will be tomorrow! Don't tire yourself out."
Smoke has risen over the guardhouse, and it's time to make dinner.
Xie Songhua was about to follow the fourth prince back when his eyes fell on a certain place and he immediately stopped.
