Even though they had all been injected with streptomycin and had some protective ability, Zheng Ye must have carried some germs with him when he came out of the city.
Taking the opportunity, Ning Xi'er taught her four maids and the remaining three guards about prevention and disinfection.
Ning Xi'er took out a pile of men's clothing from the carriage and handed it to the guards. The maids were with her, so they didn't need to be given separate clothing.
Ning Xi'er instructed them that regardless of whether they entered or left the city, or whether they came into contact with patients, they must change their clothes every day and burn the changed clothes.
Ning Xi'er took out a sealed porcelain bottle from her space, poured in alcohol, changed the packaging, and instructed the others that they should disinfect their hands and any objects they handled after touching the patient with alcohol.
Ning Xi'er explained to them that alcohol is a highly purified form of grain liquor that they usually drink, and it can effectively kill germs.
Haitang, Baizhi, and several guards all nodded in agreement.
Ning Xier further explained that although the plague was terrible, it was not incurable even if it was discovered, isolated, and treated in time.
Ning Xi'er told them that the plague was mainly spread through the air, food, insects, or by items such as towels and blankets used by the sick...
The first priority is to isolate infected patients, disinfect their environment with alcohol, kill the rats that cause the plague, and dispose of the items used by the patients...
This will block the source of infection.
Patients infected with the virus should receive timely and effective treatment.
After Ning Xi'er finished explaining, Haitang seemed to understand, "Miss said that the reason for isolating patients is because the plague spreads very quickly."
"If we only focus on saving lives, the speed of saving lives might not even keep up with the speed of the spread..."
Ning Xi'er nodded in satisfaction.
Ao Xue analyzed, "The disinfection that Miss mentioned refers to killing the rats in the patient's environment, and using alcohol to treat the diseases carried by the rats to reduce airborne transmission..."
"Handling away trash, washing our hands with alcohol daily, and burning clothes that have come into contact with patients are all ways to prevent the spread of disease to others..."
Ning Xi'er smiled, it seemed that Haitang and Aoxue did indeed have some aptitude for studying medicine and nursing.
After her explanation, the serious expressions on their faces eased slightly.
People are prone to fear of the unknown, but once they know the reason, they can be more at ease.
Half an hour later, Zheng Ye and two guards brought over a middle-aged, thin man.
After walking about ten meters away, Zheng Ye and the others stopped.
Just like when Ning Xi'er left to save Qin Yuan that day.
Maintain a certain distance.
Ning Xi'er felt a warmth in her heart. This impetuous and reckless young general had finally made progress and become more careful.
"princess!"
Zheng Ye called out to Ning Xi'er from afar.
The man beside her seemed a little dazed. Upon hearing Zheng Ye address her in that way, he immediately looked at Ning Xi'er.
He bowed deeply.
Ning Xi'er nodded, signaling them to come over and talk.
Zheng Ye hesitated, and the middle-aged man immediately waved his hand, fearing that he might infect Ning Xi'er with the disease.
At this moment, Ning Xi'er and her four maids and three guards were fully armed, with handkerchiefs covering their ears and noses and cotton gloves on their hands.
Following Professor Ning Xier's instructions, Haitang took the alcohol and sprayed it all over the four people.
Seeing that the person had arrived, Zheng Ye trusted Ning Xi'er's arrangement and helped the middle-aged man forward.
The middle-aged man gratefully thanked Zheng Ye.
As they approached, Zheng Ye introduced him to Ning Xi'er, "Your Highness, this is Magistrate Xue Lin of Yongning County."
After saying that, she introduced him to Xue Lin, "Lord Xue, this is Consort Fei of Prince Cheng."
"We were originally on our way to exile in the wilderness when we discovered that some people along the way had fallen ill. The Queen, skilled in medicine, successfully cured one of the infected patients during the journey..."
"The Princess Consort has come all this way to do her part for the people of Yongning. Please give us a briefing on the situation in Yongning!"
Unexpectedly, the county magistrate, Xue Lin, knelt down before Ning Xi'er with a thud!
"princess!"
He was helped up by Zheng Ye and the guards, his eyes already red-rimmed.
Ning Xi'er explained, "Originally, the Prince was also going to come, but his health..."
"As you have probably heard, Your Highness is of a special status and is currently in exile, so it is really inconvenient for you to come."
"I came here as instructed by the Prince to see if I could be of any help..."
At the meeting, Xue Lin bowed deeply again, saying, "Under these circumstances, you still came to help. Regardless of the outcome, on behalf of the people of Changning, I thank Your Highness and Your Highness for their compassion!"
Zheng Ye looked at Ning Xi'er, his eyes filled with gratitude and emotion.
The princess took the lead, not only for the sake of the people of the city, but also to build a good reputation for the prince.
