Seeing this, He Zhiran quickly explained: "Brother Meng, there is no need to worry. The master who taught me medical skills once gave me a prescription for treating the plague. Now those people have no life-threatening danger after taking the medicine.
What I want to remind you is that those villagers were infected with the plague before going up the mountain. Now the source of the plague is not clear, and we cannot rule out the possibility that people in the surrounding villages are also infected.
Therefore, I hope you will keep this matter in mind, increase your efforts to send people to investigate the situation, and take immediate measures if something is wrong."
Meng Huaining did not fully believe He Zhiran's statement that she had a prescription for treating the plague.
After all, plague is different from other diseases. He heard from his elders that during the plague in Dashun Dynasty, many doctors lost their lives but could not come up with a cure.
He believed in Mo Jiuye's character from the bottom of his heart and was willing to believe that his wife was a good person.
But Meng Huaining did not dare to be careless in such a big matter as treating the plague.
If things go wrong, tens of thousands of people will die...
"Sister-in-law, is your medicine really as effective as you say?"
Peng Wang can attest to this.
"Brother Meng, I saw with my own eyes a dying person being revived. There is no doubt about this."
With Peng Wang testifying, Meng Huaining really believed it.
At the same time, he also felt that it was very reasonable to cremate the body immediately.
In order to prevent the matter from becoming more serious, Meng Huaining immediately summoned people to cremate the corpses.
Last night, after Meng Huaining heard that there was flooding here, he wrote a memorial and reported it to the court overnight, hoping that the court would send an imperial envoy to resolve the crisis as soon as possible.
Less than a day later, he wrote another memorial and reported the plague.
As for Emperor Shunwu's arrangements, he can't interfere with his own decision at the moment.
If it were those who are timid, even if they deeply understand the importance of cremating corpses, they would not dare to implement it without receiving instructions from the court.
This shows Meng Huaining’s wisdom and courage.
Seeing Meng Huaining doing things in an orderly manner, Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran both admired him.
After all the corpses of the common people were salvaged and cremated, it was almost dark.
Meng Huaining showed hesitation for the first time in front of He Zhiran and others.
After thinking for a while, Meng Huaining spoke with difficulty.
"Brothers and sisters, I know this matter may be a little overwhelming, but as a parent and an official, I have to think about the people under my rule."
He Zhiran saw through his mind at a glance, and he was just thinking about a prescription to treat the plague.
If Emperor Shunwu came to her in person to ask for it, she would not be able to give away the prescription.
However, the person in front of me is different. Let’s not talk about Meng Huaining’s future achievements. Just look at the current situation. He is responsible and responsible.
What's more, this is the person she plans to let Mo Jiuye befriend.
With so many reasons, He Zhiran would naturally not be stingy.
Although He Zhiran spent a lot of effort in researching this prescription in his previous life.
But the goal of her hard work is to be able to save more people.
Now that he had the opportunity to treat more people and get a huge favor from Meng Huaining, He Zhiran would not feel any pressure to provide the prescription.
Meng Huaining saw that He Zhiran didn't respond for a long time and thought that the other party was unwilling.
"Brother and sister, I promise that the prescription will not be known to anyone other than me, nor will anyone know that it is from you. Also, I will allocate these types of medicinal materials to multiple people for purchase. When the crisis is resolved, I will
Do you think it’s feasible to destroy the prescription with your own hands?”
He Zhiran had no intention of rejecting Meng Huaining's request, but now that people are talking about it, she will naturally not be pretentious.
"Okay, I believe Brother Meng will do what he says."
Soon, Meng Huaining sent someone to get pen and paper.
He Zhiran was already familiar with the prescriptions she had developed. The only thing that made her a little embarrassed was that she didn't know if she could write the traditional Chinese characters here well.
Especially when it comes to using brushes. She didn't take any calligraphy classes in her previous life.
For this reason, she could only place her hope on the memories of the original owner.
He Zhiran hesitantly picked up the pen, then made two gestures on the paper, and then lowered the tip of the pen.
I don't know if it's because of the habit of this body or something else, but in short, He Zhiran used a brush to write the traditional Chinese characters of this era with ease.
Not only that, all the words she wrote were in regular silk regular script, which shows that the original owner put a lot of effort into this aspect.
After the prescription was written, He Zhiran dried the ink on it and handed it to Meng Huaining.
"Here is the prescription. If anyone asks about it, please ask Brother Meng to hide it for me."
We still don’t know what Mo Jiuye’s future will be like. As his wife, she must not make a name for herself to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
Meng Huaining took the prescription and put it away, then solemnly raised his fist towards He Zhiran.
"Don't worry, brothers and sisters, I will never reveal this matter. Likewise, I will definitely keep my promise."
"In that case, I'm relieved." He Zhiran replied with a smile.
Seeing that it was getting late, Peng Wang rushed back to the mountain and decided to rest for the night and set off early tomorrow morning.
As for the villagers on the mountain, Meng Huaining will send people to settle them early tomorrow morning.
They said goodbye and when they returned to the cave, it was completely dark.
The sisters-in-law have already roasted the remaining game meat and are waiting for He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye to come back and eat it together.
A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Peng Wang greeted everyone to continue setting off.
The villagers kowtowed sincerely to their savior, He Zhiran, and He Zhiran also warned them.
If you are grateful for her life-saving grace, don't tell the fact that it was her who saved his life.
Although the villagers didn't know why the goddess doctor didn't want to leave her name when saving people, they all agreed not to tell anyone at her request.
A sudden flood flooded not only Liu Lizheng's village, but also a mess towards the west.
It can be seen how many innocent people were harmed by this flood.
However, natural disasters and man-made disasters do not distinguish between ancient and modern times. When faced with such things, human beings are the most vulnerable group. No one can compete with God...
Including those official servants, everyone did not have any daily necessities with them. Although it was much easier to travel on the road, it also brought inconvenience to more things.
For example, they have three meals a day. Not only do they have no food, it is also difficult to find clean water.
Fortunately, they picked up some pots and other items that had been washed away by the flood on the road, which solved some of their urgent needs.
Even though we had pots and pans, the surrounding area was severely damaged and there was nowhere to buy ingredients.
In desperation, He Zhiran could only take everyone to dig some wild vegetables in the mountains passing by to survive.
Such days lasted for four consecutive days, and finally at noon on the fifth day, everyone arrived at Anning County.
