Chapter 118 The city is closed, no entry is allowed, no exit is allowed
Originally, the epidemic in the two cities had been brought under control, but for some reason, a large number of epidemic patients suddenly appeared again.
Moreover, the patient's illness was particularly acute this time, and only a few hours passed between the time he contracted the disease and his death.
Suddenly, corpses appeared everywhere in the city, and wailing could be heard everywhere.
Ye Yining felt extremely uncomfortable. She didn't know what went wrong.
It stands to reason that a cured patient is unlikely to relapse.
After visiting for a long time, the judge from Rongyuan returned to the government office with a look of helplessness and regret on his face.
"We can cure the disease, but we cannot cure people's greed!"
Ye Yining had just stepped forward to comfort her master when she saw her father had returned.
"Dad, how is the situation in the city?"
General Ye sighed, "Someone brought a large number of infected poultry and vegetables contaminated with the virus into the city, and sold them to the people in the city at super low prices. Now the number of infected people in the city is more than before. Alas! Some time ago
God, our efforts have been in vain. Ning'er, you go to Nanze City today! I received a message from King Ji, saying that your eldest brother's condition is not very good. He will arrive in Nanze City tomorrow, so you can pick him up."
Ye Yining nodded, "Okay, I'll be there soon."
"Bring more medicinal materials to Nanze City. I heard that the situation there is worse." The judge from Rongyuan came over and warned.
Ye Yining was also a little worried, "The medicinal materials collected in the city have almost been used. This time the ingredients and poultry were transported into the city infected with the epidemic virus. It is very likely that someone did it deliberately. Now I am worried that someone will tamper with the medicinal materials.
."
Judge Rong Yuan nodded, "You are right. Now it seems that someone is indeed causing harm behind the scenes. The epidemic in the capital was initially under control, but it rebounded when it was about to recover. After that, it became more serious.
.So, it is easy to heal people, but it is more difficult to heal the heart.”
Ye Yining pondered for a moment and then said: "Let's close the city! No one is allowed in, no one is allowed out. Food is strictly controlled. Otherwise, if it really gets out of control, the whole city may have to be closed down."
If this plague develops like it did in the fishing villages more than a hundred years ago, countless people will die.
"Father is going to discuss this matter with Magistrate Xu. Ning'er, please pay attention to your own safety." General Ye ordered and left quickly.
The situation in the city is not optimistic now, and he still has too much to do.
Ye Yining did not waste any time. After leaving some medicinal materials for her master, she took Yunlai and Xingfu to Nanze City.
…
Nanze City.
As soon as Ye Yining appeared in Nanze City, Gu Ze, the prefect of Nanze City, rushed over immediately.
"Princess, I have a request, I don't know whether to honor it or not..."
Ye Yining raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard Gu Zhifu's address, "What do you mean?"
"It's like this. I want to ask the princess and His Highness Prince Ji to come forward and order the merchants in the city to operate normally and keep everything as usual. They are not allowed to close stores or inflate prices... Nowadays, cities are autonomous, and most cities have closed their gates. This way
The result is that everyone in the wealthy family closes their doors to protect themselves, but the common people move around because their normal needs are not met, and even eat food contaminated with epidemic sources. If this continues, the epidemic may be uncontrollable, and the common people will not be able to control the epidemic.
Sometimes he will either die of illness or starve to death..."
After Ye Yining was silent for a while, he came up with a new proposal.
"Then, with the government office as the center, establish an epidemic-free commercial street and a safety zone. Only healthy and epidemic-free people can enter the area and obtain entry and exit credentials, and then the safety zone will slowly expand outward depending on the situation. You
What do you think?"
After hearing this, Magistrate Gu's eyes lit up, "It's feasible, it's very feasible."
In this way, having a safe zone is very convenient, and it also avoids friction with those merchants.
"Then you divide the area. The safe area must be thoroughly cleaned to ensure that all places are clean and people and food are safe. People infected with the epidemic in the safe area must find another place to stay. In addition, set up roadblocks in the safe area and set up
Someone still needs to be on duty at the entrance and exit. Then ask the doctor in the city to inspect and issue a health certificate..."
"Yes. I will order someone to implement it immediately." Magistrate Gu's eyes were filled with surprise and he left full of energy.
Ye Yining looked at his retreating back thoughtfully, "This Master Gu is more accomplished than I thought."
Ye Ze, who was guarding the side, heard what the princess said and immediately said: "Master Gu is a good official with good abilities."
Ye Yining looked at Ye Ze curiously, "What about Magistrate Xu of Lianze City?"
"Prefect Xu is a more moderate person, while Lord Gu is more understanding of the world and has his own opinions."
Seeing that Ye Ze knew something about them, Ye Yining asked casually, "Is there any reason for the feud between the two of them?"
"There are political differences, and in addition, I liked the same woman when I was young, so it is a bit of a personal feud. But they don't dare to mix their personal emotions to create opposition in this epidemic control operation. Don't worry, Princess!"
Ye Yining nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Magistrate Gu's ability to do things was pretty good, but within an hour, a safe zone in the city was divided.
Immediately afterwards, a thorough cleaning began in the safety zone. Whether it was the streets or the houses, everything was cleaned, and the floors were even washed with water.
Ye Yining took Yun Lai around the safe area, and then went back to prepare medicine.
My eldest brother will arrive in Nanze City tomorrow, and I don’t know what his condition is like.
And Jun Jiuji, he must have put a lot of effort into helping her bring her eldest brother back!
I don't know if they were in danger.
That night, she stayed in a quiet and elegant courtyard in the safe zone, but she did not sleep peacefully.
The next day, as soon as Ye Yining got up, she saw Cihun kneeling outside. He was dressed in black, kneeling straight, with a cold and solemn expression on his face, which shocked her.
"What happened? Where is my eldest brother?"
Ye Yining looked around nervously, but there was only one person in the courtyard.
When Xihun saw that the young lady had woken up, he kowtowed heavily before saying, "Miss, my subordinate has disobeyed the young lady's trust and caused the eldest young master to be injured."
This is his shame. There has never been a person he wanted to kill that he couldn't kill. This was the first time he failed to protect the person he wanted to protect.
Ye Yining was stunned for a moment, then patted her frightened little heart.
"You scared me to death. I thought something was wrong. Get up. It's none of your business that my eldest brother is injured. As long as he's not dead, you're not neglecting your duty."
The eldest brother was punished with five hundred military sticks. This was a military regulation and an order from the emperor. No matter how powerful the stabbing was, he could not be rescued openly. Otherwise, it would be rebellion.
For her, she only wants her eldest brother to be alive.
Because there is hope only if she is alive. If she is injured, she is confident that she can cure her brother.
When Cihun saw that the lady didn't blame him, he blamed himself even more.
The first time the lady asked him to do something, he didn't do it well.
