Like a child who has been wronged and has endured it alone for a long time, suddenly someone cares...
I couldn't hold it in any longer.
Such a serious matter as a plague was ignored by the prefectural government, and neighboring counties avoided it like the plague...
Even in such a difficult situation as Yongning, he did not order the city gates to be opened to relieve the pressure inside the city.
Many residents, trapped in the city and unable to receive timely medical treatment for their families and friends, and prevented from leaving, became enraged.
The government office was vacated, and many people rushed into his residence, frightening his daughter to tears.
But when they saw that the magistrate's wife was also lying in bed, barely breathing, and the magistrate's only daughter was burning with fever, her face flushed, and vomiting incessantly...
Shouting and threatening to hit people, the people gradually stopped.
The magistrate is not by his wife's side at this moment, but is still inspecting the entire city, disregarding his ailing health...
Some people said that seeing the magistrate's pale face was also a symptom of illness, and the crowd's anger gradually subsided...
Xue Lin patiently explained the reasons for closing the city gates to them, his voice almost hoarse, and the people were in an uproar.
Faced with life and death, who would willingly wait to die in the city just to save Linxian County?!
They weren't malicious people; they just stayed because they saw no hope...
The county magistrate was also seriously infected. Despite his illness, he, along with the county clerk and the registrar, persuaded the people to leave Xue Lin's house.
The crowd surrounding Xue Lin on the street lingered for a long time...
Finally, Zheng Ye suddenly arrived, drew his sword, and the crowd dispersed...
Xue Lin had never felt that four days could be so long.
When he left the manor, Madam was nearly unconscious, but she still supported Xue Lin and told him to go out without worry.
But how could he possibly feel at ease?!
When he left, his daughter also started to have a fever, but he didn't care at all...
Only when Ning Xi'er asked did he have the time and energy to think about his wife and daughter, and the countless grievances and helplessness he felt...
I couldn't help but feel a deep sadness.
Zheng Ye isn't one to fuss over trivial matters and didn't know how to comfort her.
But seeing Xue Lin, who was only a few years younger than his father, and thinking of how he had struggled to support himself...
I have great respect for them for not deserting their posts and for putting the overall situation first.
So she patted Xue Lin on the shoulder, "Lord Xue, it's alright! We'll face this together. With the Princess Consort here, everything will turn out alright!"
Xue Lin's eyes welled up with tears, but he finally managed a slight smile.
Oral administration of streptomycin can affect its efficacy.
Ning Xi'er turned around and took out two water bags filled with spiritual spring liquid from the carriage, which contained glucose solution and electrolyte water.
Ning Xi'er then gave Xue Lin two more medicines: one package of oral penicillin and the other package of multivitamins.
Ning Xi'er instructed him on how to use it and comforted him, saying that as long as he took it according to the instructions, he would be safe.
Xue Lin was overwhelmed with gratitude, but to avoid wasting time, Zheng Ye dragged him along at a jog, leaping over the city wall...
After Xue Lin and Zheng Ye left, Ning Xi'er, Haitang, and the others ate a simple meal and then immediately told them to go to bed...
Next, there's still a tough battle ahead.
Angelica dahurica and licorice took turns keeping watch, and after only two hours of sleep, dawn broke.
Zheng Ye had already rushed back, dozed off for an hour, and then returned to the city to bring Xue Lin out.
The guards returned one after another, and Zheng Ye and Xue Lin were checking the statistics they had compiled.
Hearing the commotion, Ning Xi'er instructed Haitang to prepare food for them, and also distributed water bags filled with spiritual spring water and electrolytes, as well as vitamin tablets, for them to take.
We need manpower right now, and no one can afford to fall behind.
Ning Xi'er came over, and Zheng Ye and Xue Lin immediately reported the situation.
After an all-night investigation, suspected cases were found in four out of ten villages in Yongning County, with a total of about nine hundred people.
No suspected cases have been found in the other six villages, and no one has been in contact with the other suspected cases in the city.
"very good!"
After a short rest, Ning Xi'er was in great spirits.
She confirmed this, then asked, "Were any of the people we met at the city gate yesterday missed?"
Zheng Ye looked at the guards, one of whom replied, "We specifically reminded the village headman to make sure nothing was missed."
Ning Xi'er nodded approvingly, then looked at Zheng Ye and Xue Lin, "Next, let's sort out the important matters one by one..."
Zheng Ye and Xue Lin looked at each other and saw the determination in each other's eyes.
Ao Xue deftly fetched paper and pen, which Xue Lin readily accepted.
"From now on, Lord Xue will be in charge of the overall planning, and I will provide supplementary information."
Ning Xi'er smiled, her eyes filled with unwavering certainty.
Inspired by her imposing manner, Zheng Ye cheerfully replied, "I will carry it out!"
Xue Lin hesitated for a moment, "Your Highness, I..."
Ning Xi'er interrupted, "Lord Xue, you can!"
“You were doing a great job before we arrived. What you lacked was simply knowledge of this infectious disease and how to deal with it.”
Seeing that the princess trusted him so much, and that the princess and General Zheng were personally backing him up, Xue Lin had no more worries!
He was originally the chief official of Yongning, and he sacrificed himself to save the people of Chengcheng!
Ning Xi'er nodded in satisfaction, feeling fortunate for the people of Yongning.
"Your Highness, then I shall refrain from presumptuous teachings..."
Ning Xi'er coughed lightly, and Xue Lin immediately changed his tone, which was much more relaxed than yesterday.
"Dr. Ning..."
