Chapter 113 God will not let down those who work hard
"Your Majesty, I dare to say that you must not go to that place!"
Chen Yue knelt on one knee, his face was very ugly, "You are the emperor, you need to take care of yourself! This palace is the safest place, I beg you..."
"When is it your turn to interfere in my affairs?"
Jun Liluo interrupted him coldly, "Do you feel that your official rank is too high and want to go to a lower position?"
Chen Yue's face froze, but he still insisted on his opinion, "Even if you want to demote me, I have no complaints. I only ask Your Majesty to stay in the palace and don't go out."
Jun Liluo walked up to him and said, "Get up."
Chen Yue still knelt and could not get up.
"Didn't I tell you that I will go out after they have a way to prevent the plague? By that time, the risk of the plague will have been reduced a lot. I will let you and the secret guards go out with me in secret. Apart from you, no other outsiders are allowed to get close to me."
"Chen Yue, I have considered this carefully. You really don't need to be so anxious. As a king, you should take good care of yourself, but you can't be too afraid of death. Get up."
After hearing this, Shen Yue finally sighed and stood up.
Your Majesty cares so much about his people, if he continues to dissuade them... it seems inappropriate.
If Your Majesty must go, he will follow closely and protect Your Majesty to the best of his ability.
I hope everything goes well for Miss Jiang and the imperial doctors.
…
On the morning of the second day, the door of Jiang Rumin's room was finally opened.
When Song Yun first saw Jiang Rumin, he found that she looked much more tired than the day before.
"Sir Song, I have read the ancient books left by my mother, and there are indeed some methods of curing plague mentioned in them. Several decades ago, there was a plague with some similar symptoms to the plague today, both of which can cause fever and death. The herbs I asked you to find can be boiled into a potion with excellent heat-clearing and detoxifying effects. I need a group of test subjects. Can you help me find them?"
Jiang Rumin paused and said, "The two patients selected by General Zhao yesterday had very mild symptoms and are indeed good test subjects. However, the two children are still young, so I dare not test all the drugs on them. I need a group of brave and strong patients to serve as test subjects."
Song Yunchu thought for a while, and then said: "I have a way, I will find the person for you. I see that you are not in a good mood, maybe you didn't sleep much last night? Go and catch up on your sleep first, and then continue to work when you are fully rested."
Jiang Rumin nodded, "Okay, I'll go take a rest then."
Seeing Jiang Rumin went back to the house to rest, Song Yunchu asked Bai Zhu to find someone to test the drugs.
"Everyone has the instinct to survive. Drug testing is risky. If we force people with diseases to test the drugs, it will definitely cause fierce resistance from the public. Therefore, we will not consider those patients with better family conditions."
"You ask the brothers to go to the streets and alleys to look for those wandering beggars. They wander around and have a high chance of getting sick. Once they get sick, most of them just want to live one day at a time."
"After finding the people, gather them together and tell them that if they are willing to be drug testers, they will have no shortage of food and clothing in the last few days, and they can choose any delicacies from land and sea. Let them leave their last words. Once the drug to cure the plague is successfully developed, those who can survive will receive silver, and those who cannot survive can leave their share of silver to those who want to stay."
After listening to Song Yunchu's instructions, Bai Zhu gathered the guards, put on a scarf to cover his mouth and nose, and went out to look for someone.
In less than an hour, Bai Zhu found fifteen people who were willing to try the drug and arranged them in the backyard of the inn.
Chu Yuni and others lived up to Song Yunchu's instructions and came back carrying basket after basket of herbs.
After Jiang Rumin woke up, she found that everyone had prepared everything, so she immediately started to boil the medicine according to the prescription she found overnight.
Soon, fifteen bowls of potion were delivered to the fifteen drug testers in the backyard.
Bai Zhu watched those people drink the medicine outside the house, and then went back to report to Song Yunchu.
"Now we just have to wait until tomorrow." Song Yunchu said, "Let's see how their situation changes after this night."
The next day, Song Yunchu got up early. When he opened the door, Bai Zhu was already standing outside waiting for him.
"Sir, the medicine Miss Jiang brewed yesterday is very effective for those with mild symptoms! Among those patients, those with mild symptoms did not get worse after a night, and several even had their fevers subsided in the second half of the night. As for those with more severe symptoms, they developed more black spots on their bodies according to the common order of onset."
Song Yunchu was delighted when he heard this, and immediately ordered, "Quickly separate them and move the patients with mild symptoms to other rooms."
"Don't worry, sir. You don't need to remind me. I have already made the arrangements."
"Oh, sir, Miss Jiang said that she reduced the amount of herbs in yesterday's potion. Normal people who haven't been infected with the disease will probably be able to prevent it after drinking it. Someone among our guards has tried it. If there are no adverse reactions, we will also drink it from tonight."
Bai Zhu's words brought a smile to Song Yunchu's face. "Great! Since the potion from yesterday is effective for patients with mild symptoms, it must be popularized as soon as possible. Spread this good news so that the people in the west of the city can rest assured."
"yes."
"We'll need a lot of herbs next, and we don't have enough manpower. I'm going to meet General Zhao and ask him to send his men to go with us to the outskirts of the city to collect more herbs."
Song Yunchu went to see General Zhao, while Jiang Rumin gathered with the imperial doctors who were on this trip to discuss the treatment methods for the middle and late stages of the plague.
In less than a day, the prescription for treating mild plague spread throughout the west of the city.
Such good news naturally spread quickly to all parts of the imperial city.
"Your Majesty, are you relieved now? Miss Jiang should be fine."
Inside Prince Yi’s mansion, the secret guard reported the current situation in the west of the city to Jun Tianyi.
"Miss Jiang's prescription was widely praised, and the originally restless people became more peaceful. Miss Jiang will definitely return safely."
The secret guard's words made Jun Tianyi feel much more relaxed.
I originally thought that Jiang Rumin was in danger when she went to the west of the city, but I didn't expect that she had such ability to make a potion to cure mild plague in such a short time.
As expected, she is Minmin.
"Song the dog thief is really smart."
When mentioning Song Yunchu, Jun Tianyi sneered, "Because he is engaged to Minmin, he can get credit for nothing without doing any work. It's really too cheap for him."
Thinking of being beaten by Song Yunchu again in Ruihe Hall, a cold light flashed in Jun Tianyi's eyes.
He would never let Song Yunchu return to the court in glory.
So he ordered the secret guards, "Go and find Madam Du. I want to prepare a great gift for Song Yunchu."
