Chapter 219 Where does the epidemic come from?
"It's a huge expense..." Zhu Su touched Dongba.
"It's not too late for the Emperor of the Palace to take back his life," Wei Guan advised. "Please ask Ming Yue to be an extra favor to the Emperor of the Palace, so that the hungry people can have a full meal, and Mingyue will resume normal rations."
"Veteran, please mobilize more officers to prevent anyone from making noise and causing chaos. In this way, you don't have to waste food..."
"No." Zhu Su shook his head and interrupted Wei Guan's persuasion.
"Do not deny this king's capriciousness. Keeping the people full is imperative and must be done."
"Master Wei, let me take a look... is that place a place where people should live?"
Zhu Su pointed around with a serious look on his face.
"That……"
Looking at the road with sewage flowing across it and the crumbling shacks, Wei Guan's face turned red. "Can the Emperor of the Palace blame the old minister for being helpless? As I said just now, Suzhou Prefecture has done its best..."
"They are better than me. There are tens of thousands of people living here, and it is rare for the police officers of Suzhou Prefecture to maintain public order. Naturally, they can no longer provide good hygiene, build houses and build roads for the victims."
"If we can continue to barely maintain it, then it's not a success. No, the population here is dense, but the conditions are so difficult."
"Under the current conditions, if we don't clean up in time, after some time, the epidemic will definitely spread!"
"Epidemic...epidemic?" Wei Guan was surprised.
"Why is the master of the palace so sure?" Dai Sigong, who had been following Wei Guan silently without saying a word, suddenly said. Although his face was old, his peaceful eyes were indeed very lively. "Could it be that the master of the palace knew about the outbreak of the epidemic?
The reason?"
"Don't you know, Mr. Dai?" Zhu Su asked strangely when he saw him speaking. "It is said that 'disease enters from the mouth'. If this place is so dirty, won't there be epidemic diseases?"
Dai Sigong shook his head, "It is said in Ge Hongzhi's "Emergency Prescriptions": 'In his years, there is malaria and ghost poison.' The epidemic is probably brought by malaria and ghost poison. But what exactly causes the so-called malaria? Old age
Or don’t you know?”
"It's hard to imagine how she was born. It's just because the living environment is too dirty and the body's immunity has declined, leading to infection with the virus." Zhu Su said seriously.
"Immunity...Immunity? What is that? What is the virus?" Dai Sigong was slightly startled, with confusion on his face.
Zhu Su hesitated for a moment, but he didn't know how to explain it. After thinking for a while, he said: "Well, viruses can be understood as so-called 'disease and ghost poisons'. In fact, they exist in all kinds of dirt and
Among snakes, insects, rats and ants.”
"If you want to avoid contracting epidemic diseases, on the one hand, you need to be physically strong so that you can be resistant to epidemic diseases. This will destroy your immunity."
"Secondly, those dirty places also need to be thoroughly cleaned up, and regulations should be established to teach people not to drink raw water, wash their legs and bathe frequently, etc."
"Both of these require the people to have strength before they can do it. If their stomachs are not full, how can they get immunity? If they don't have strength, how can they contribute to completely cleaning up this place?"
Wei Guan was stunned for a moment after hearing what Zhu Su said. Although he wanted to refute, he didn't know where to start. Dai Sigong was thoughtful, and there seemed to be a light flashing in his eyes, but he remained the same.
Doubtful.
At that moment, Gou'er, the accompanying eunuch behind Zhu Su, said: "When we were in the capital, did the master of his family beg the villagers of Bifeng Imperial Manor like that and do what he asked for?"
"In previous years in Zhuangzi, during autumn and winter, people often suffered from abdominal pain and epidemic fever. Since the implementation of this method in the east of the palace, the number of sick people in the village has dropped sharply."
"The people in Bifeng Imperial Villa rarely suffer from the epidemic. It is already known to everyone in Tiancheng. If you two don't believe it, you can find someone to inquire about it."
"Really?" Dai Sigong looked shocked, "I heard that the east of the palace was taught knowledge by strangers. Could it be that there is also medical skill in it?"
"Diandong's medical skills are indeed exquisite, and the poor monk can prove it." Yao Guangxiao also clasped his legs together. "Old Duke Cao had a sore in his mouth, and it was difficult for him to eat, and the imperial doctor couldn't cure it. Diandong made frosting from watermelon and gave it to him, and the medicine healed the disease.
remove."
Did Yao Guangxiao say what happened before Zhu Su left Beijing? When Zhu Su first left the palace in the past month, he made many medicinal materials that he can remember the production methods. Among them was watermelon frost. Li Wenzhong’s father Li Zhen suffered from ulcers in his mouth, and his food
Without thinking, they ended up lingering on the sick bed for a long time. Li Wenzhong and Li Jinglong, father and son, were so worried that they had to return home to take care of their illness.
Zhu Su went to Cao Guogong's mansion to visit, and after seeing whether Li Zhen had a mouth ulcer, he took out the watermelon cream he made. Sure enough, the medicine cured the disease. Li Wenzhong and Li Jinglong were both overjoyed.
Combined with the previous methods of willow bark, fetal anatomy, and alcohol disinfection used to treat sword wounds "stabbed by Zhu Xian", Zhu Su's "barefoot doctor" medical skills have gained a reputation among a small group of people.
.At least, Yao Guangxiao and other people who lived in the imperial village praised him highly.
"Is that so?" Dai Sigong was even more delighted, looking at Zhu Su with an expression eager to ask.
Zhu Su smiled at him. He had originally wanted to tell Dai Sigong about his half-hearted medical skills, and let's see if he could improve the famous doctor's medical skills to the next level.
It was not the right time for Bu Nao to appear in the east. He turned to Wei Guan and said: "I know that if you ask the Suzhou government to change its established policy, there will be many dangers..."
"The old minister was entrusted by His Majesty the Emperor to lead the government, so he should have devoted himself to his work..." Wei Guan shook his head. "Is it true that the Emperor can teach the rich households in the city to open warehouses and stockpile grain? If he does not rely on his own strength, he may cause trouble again.
…”
"It's okay. I have my own clever plan..." Zhu Su smiled kindly. "Don't forget, I also studied under the great Confucian Song Shizuodong."
"I understand how to persuade people with virtue, I understand it very well!"
"Don't worry, Prefect Wei."
"That's good..." Wei Guan was half-convinced.
…
The officials from Suzhou Prefecture did indeed bring the food, and they set up pots to cook it in the open space. The victims were immediately excited. What's more, they went into groups to worship Zhu Su and others in the middle. If it weren't for Zhu Su,
The guards around Su helped the officers maintain order, and the situation even got out of control for a time.
Zhu Su looked at the grateful people and was touched in his heart. He was even more aware that the people would be grateful if they had an extra mouthful of food. The people would also riot in anger because they had no food to eat.
There is nothing wrong with that. Life is busy, and all you want is to have a full meal and live in the east.
There are many things that need to be done. Now is not the time to be complacent, but rather to take action to completely ensure the subsequent supply of food.
When Zhu Su returned to Shen Garden, he immediately summoned the two brothers Shen Rong and Shen Wang. Shen Wang went to the glass shop in the city, but the head of the family, Shen Rong, still stayed in the garden. After hearing Zhu Su's summons, Shen Rong couldn't help but
Dare to neglect, he came to Zhu Su on crutches.
"The east of the palace has urgently summoned the old man. What are your orders?" Shen Rong saw Zhu Su's expression of hesitation and felt anxious in his heart. He said cautiously and solemnly.
"Mr. Shen, this king is asking me."
"How much grain is stored in our Shen family's granary?"
