Ning Que looked solemn.
The plague is not just talk.
These days it means mass death!
The term "plague" in ancient times is a rather general one.
It is usually caused by a virus or bacteria.
A highly contagious and fatal disease.
Plague, smallpox, cholera, malaria...
These are actually all included.
After all, medical technology is limited now.
Ning Que had also experienced this once.
At that time, a plague broke out in a border town, and my father made a last-minute decision to go there to provide disaster relief. He vividly remembered seeing nine out of ten houses empty, with many patients lying on the roadside.
Finally, the border town disappeared...
"Uncle Chang, are you sure?"
"It's basically confirmed." Chang Baicao nodded and whispered, "Since entering Daye Lake, the number of patients has increased dramatically. This afternoon alone, more than 30 more cases have been reported. The symptoms are almost the same: chills, body aches, and weakness, while others vomit. I've tried several prescriptions, but none of them worked. I've set up an isolation area as you suggested, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving. But..."
Chang Baicao sighed softly.
He and Ning Que would sometimes talk about medicine.
During this period, we talked about how to deal with the plague.
Ning Que specifically mentioned that whenever signs of the plague were discovered, an isolation zone must be set up as soon as possible. At the same time, areas were divided according to the severity of symptoms, and anyone suspected of having been exposed had to go inside.
Early detection, early prevention, early treatment!
This is all Ning Que’s instructions.
Chang Baicao still remembered it clearly and was very impressed by Ning Que's novel medical concept. After many experiments, he was convinced that it was effective.
"This matter cannot be publicized for the time being."
"King Lu will come to Dayeze tomorrow."
"If this gets out, it will affect the Fengshan ceremony."
"I know."
Chang Baicao nodded calmly.
Seeing that the Fengshan ceremony was about to take place, the plague broke out, which was bound to attract all kinds of criticism. It would even question the legitimacy of the Fengshan ceremony and cause all kinds of rumors to appear among the people.
Ning Que breathed a sigh of relief.
This journey to Fengshan is really not easy.
"The summer heat is a breeding ground for plagues."
"But even if there is a plague, it must be cured."
"Also, Uncle Chang should also pay attention to safety."
"You can take some heat-clearing and detoxifying soup in the next two days."
"good."
Chang Baicao nodded in understanding.
Of course he knew all these things.
Then lowered his voice.
"Also, the prince must pay attention too."
"You were injured a few days ago."
"Well, I'll go find my brother and report the situation first."
Ning Que raised his hand to say goodbye and headed towards the tent.
Plague is no small matter.
The medicinal materials we brought with us are simply not enough.
This matter must not be made public.
To calm down as quickly as possible.
You can’t say anything that is not conducive to Fengshan!
There were candles lit in the tent.
Emperor Feng was still reviewing documents.
When he saw Ning Que coming in, he put down the brush.
Then he raised a smile.
"Why are you here?"
"Something happened."
Ning Que lowered his voice.
Emperor Feng frowned upon seeing this.
He raised his hand to signal Jiang Quan and other ministers to leave.
"Tell me, what happened?"
"There may be a plague in the barracks." Ning Que lowered his voice and raised his hand. "The situation is still uncertain, but Divine Doctor Chang has set up an isolation area. I have asked him to suppress the news for the time being and discuss it after Prince Lu arrives tomorrow. In the meantime, he will be responsible for mobilizing medicinal materials and quelling the plague as much as possible."
"Okay." Emperor Feng nodded and whispered, "You will be responsible for this matter. I am about to go to Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to the gods. You should know how important this is. There must be no unfavorable news."
"I understand."
Ning Que also knew this and whispered, "However, my royal brother still needs to take some medicine first to avoid getting sick."
"Well, you arrange it."
Emperor Feng smiled and nodded.
He looked at Ning Que's back as he hurriedly left.
He didn't know when it started, but as long as Ning Que was by his side, he felt at ease. No matter what danger he faced, he could always turn it into a blessing. Perhaps, as the Grand Historian had said, Ning Que was his lucky star.
"Manager Hu."
"The old slave is here."
"Have the Ghost Guards found out?"
Emperor Feng raised his head, looking very indifferent.
There was a cold murderous aura from top to bottom.
"Yes." Steward Hu stood respectfully by the side and raised his hand, saying, "We've received news that Princess Changge was bewitched by the King of Qi. Over the years, she has been cultivated by the King of Qi, including the assassin Xiong Ke, who was also recruited by the King of Qi."
"good."
Emperor Feng waved his hand.
Manager Hu tactfully burned the document.
"Your Majesty, the King of Qi is so treasonous..."
"No rush."
Emperor Feng looked at the map and chuckled, "I want to eliminate not only the King of Qi, but also the other kings of different surnames. Even if I eliminate the King of Qi now, someone else will soon take the throne. This back-and-forth will not benefit Dafeng. Taking advantage of the eastern expedition to Goguryeo, we can eliminate them!"
"I understand."
"Stand back and keep an eye on the quarantine area." Emperor Feng raised his hand and said calmly, "If things get out of control, you know what to do."
"promise!"
Manager Hu took his leave voluntarily.
…
The next morning, it was just getting light.
Ning Que woke up early to check on the situation. If it was truly a plague, someone could be infected at any moment. Prince Lu would be visiting Daye Lake today, so he had to take precautions.
"Well, where's Wang Ergou?"
"He's sick too..."
"Are you sick?!"
