No matter how much you ask, it is better to see it with your own eyes.
Jiangzhou has seven subordinate counties, Qingping, Qingning, Qing'an, Qingxuan, Qingluan, Qingyuan, and Qingqiu, and a main city, where the prefectural government is located.
Of course, Liu Rengui would not let a case in the place where he lived endanger him. He had already issued a strict order. During these days, all the people who wanted to go to the city to seek medical treatment were driven back, and the people of Qingping County were not sick or not. Access. If you want to go to other states for help, you have to go through the main city. This move can be said to block people's life.
However, this order was hit by mistake, but it did the right thing - there was no patient in the main city, and the disease did not spread to Qingzhou or even further afield, and was controlled within a few counties in Jiangzhou.
Of course, this cannot hide the fact that Liu Rengui was guilty of heinous crimes. His original intention was that he was greedy for life and feared death, so he wanted to lock up the people in several counties to die, and he did not have the consciousness to control the spread of the epidemic.
Qingping County was the place where the plague first broke out, so they naturally had to go there to find out. Before leaving, Wei Lian gave an order to let everyone cover their faces with cloth, cover their mouths and noses tightly, don't touch them all the way, and wash them immediately after returning.
Zhou Mingli was puzzled: "Why is this?" What's wrong with a big man, and he has to wear a veil like a woman
The doctors didn't quite understand it either. In their opinion, Wei Lian is just a young man who has just reached the crown. Maybe he is very skilled in martial arts and capable of doing things, but he specializes in surgery. In terms of medical skills, these imperial physicians are the top leaders of the Qin state.
If you don't give a reason, how can you be convincing
Wei Lian was speechless. Today, we only know that the plague can be transmitted from person to person, but the medium of transmission is unknown. He has read in medical books that the virus spreads in various ways, perhaps through close contact, or through droplets in the air.
But no one can understand these words. Wei Lian had long known that the master's origin was mysterious, and the books he gave him were different from those in the world.
If you say it hastily, people will only regard it as a fantasy, and even more disbelieve it.
Since it didn't make sense, he didn't plan to explain it.
"Do as I say." Wei Lian ordered, "Wear the face scarf from the moment you leave the city. You are not allowed to take it off all the way. Violators will be dealt with according to military orders."
Zhou Mingli, who wanted to ask for an explanation: "..."
Forget it, just wear a face towel, it's not a big deal.
Mother, take it easy.
There is also a distance from the main city to Qingping County, because the place is remote and the road is narrow, everyone dismounts and walks. The guards have been busy all the way, carrying food and other relief materials, and they are wearing face towels, which are really airtight, and many people are extremely tired.
When a person is tired and cannot get an answer, he will inevitably feel resentful. Wei Lian is not Ji Yue, he has no achievements in the Qin state, he does not have such a high reputation, and he is not popular. Although no one said anything because of his identity, his face was obviously dissatisfied.
To be precise, as early as after Wei Lian replaced Zhou Mingli as the highest imperial envoy in this trip, many people regarded him as an unpleasant person, thinking that he was an airborne meritorious seeker.
They came here to save the people in danger, but Young Master Lian seemed to be making a fool of himself. It is the people below who are tired of saying a word, and they only issue some strange and strange orders, and they are not in tune at all.
This dissatisfaction has spread in the team for a long time, and any little thing can aggravate it.
But as soon as they entered Qingping County, their grievances were instantly occupied by another emotion.
…is fear.
with pathos.
Compared with the main city, which was calm, as if nothing had happened, and indeed nothing had happened, the situation in Qingping County could be described as tragic.
As soon as you enter the county, you can smell a strong smell of flames. Every household is burning paper money. A mother was holding her child's corpse with her eyes blank. When she saw a group of strangers in the county, she just stared numbly, and then she looked away.
On the other side, it was just the opposite. Two young children were crying over their mother's body, shouting hoarsely: "Mother!"
And this heart-piercing cry can't move anyone here. Because every day, such a tragedy will be staged in many homes.
This scene can be seen everywhere.
In the past, people in Qingping County were very xenophobic. But now no one cares about the entry of this group of people, and they have long been heartbroken.
Coffins, coffins, white flags. There is also the mournful joy that is intertwined with mournful cries.
Zhou Mingli was shocked, watching all this in disbelief and pain.
… What the hell did that dog officer do! It's not a pity to kill a thousand swords!
An imperial doctor looked sad and wanted to check the corpse on the ground, but Wei Lian stopped him: "Don't touch it."
The imperial doctor raised his head in confusion.
Wei Lian said in a low voice, "Corps can also infect people."
The imperial doctor was so frightened that he immediately retracted his hand.
In retrospect, it feels wrong again, does Young Master Lian understand medical skills? Why should he listen to him
But the team has long gone.
Zhou Yushan was clearly aware of the situation in the county, and said angrily: "Our Qingping County has become like this, and that dog official is still whitewashing Taiping, and he doesn't take our life as his life!"
Zhou Mingli answered with a sullen face: "Don't worry, His Majesty will definitely cut off that dog's head."
Zhou Yushan couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Thank you, Lord Imperial Commissioner, Caomin heard someone call you Lord Zhou just now. We are still our own family! Hey, Caomin is not dating you, Caomin wants to take the liberty to ask... Which Zhou are you?"
A guard smiled and said, "This is our Zhou Mingli, Lord Zhou."
Lord Tingwei is a well-known and good official, and he has always been in harmony with their subordinates and is deeply loved. Otherwise, they wouldn't reject the airborne Young Master Lianxin, and they were all grievances against Zhou Mingli.
"It turned out to be Zhou Ming..." Zhou Yushan was suddenly startled, knelt down and kowtowed, "It's actually you! Caomin's eyes are clumsy, but he didn't know it was Lord Zhou. We have heard of you in this mountainous area. You are the one who is not afraid of power and decides cases fairly. , the real Master Qingtian!"
In such a remote place in Qingping County, Zhou Ming's name has been heard, which shows how his fame spread far and wide.
Zhou Mingli helped him: "Get up."
Zhou Yushan was so excited that he was incoherent: "Zhou, Lord Zhou! Caomin has admired you for a long time! Earlier, I told my little sister that if our magistrate was Lord Zhou, how could the situation develop to such a degree? But a good official like Lord Zhou must be How can you be a sesame official in our small place?"
Qingping County can be so miserable, and the magistrate has contributed greatly. I didn't pay attention to it at first, and I didn't report it until I couldn't hide it. I didn't want to solve the epidemic.
In contrast, the magistrate of Qingqiu County really tried his best and worked hard, but he was still imprisoned by Liu Rengui on the grounds of "falsely reporting the epidemic". As the so-called do not solve the problem, but to solve the problem of the people. Jiangzhou Zhizhou is obviously doing a good job at this point.
After Wei Lian heard the news, he sent people to release the people, and then divided the troops into seven different routes to send relief supplies to seven counties, but they only went through Qingping County.
Although there was no plague in Qingqiu County, rice grains were indispensable. After being self-sufficient for a month, it has almost reached its limit.
The most important thing today is the epidemic, and I have no time to control those small fish and shrimp. When the dust settles, and the balance is settled in the autumn, it is natural that the reward should be rewarded, and the punishment should be punished.
It took Zhou Yushan a long time to calm down his excitement and bring people into his house: "Xiaoshan, I'm back!"
The girl sitting in the chair shouted in surprise, "Brother."
But when she saw the stranger following Zhou Yushan, the girl shrank back in fear.
"Xiao Shan, don't be afraid, the imperial court sent someone to rescue us!" Zhou Yushan comforted her, "This is the Lord Zhou Mingli Zhou I told you before!"
Zhou Xiaoshan was stunned for a moment, and timidly called out, "Hello, Lord Zhou."
A young man suddenly walked out of the crowd, and said bluntly to Zhou Xiaoshan: "Stand out your arm and take a look."
Zhou Xiaoshan was so frightened that he quickly retracted his hands into his sleeves.
How can a girl's arm be seen casually? Besides, she's sick now... so ugly.
Xu Wenqing frowned when she saw the resistance. Fascinated by medical skills, he only sees patients regardless of gender, and does not understand Zhou Xiaoshan's resistance very well.
Imperial Physician Xu immediately said: "Stinky boy, don't leave it here to make trouble. Let the old man come. Little girl, stretch out your hand to have a look." His tone was kind, and the old face was almost wrinkled into a chrysanthemum.
Zhou Xiaoshan shook his head frantically.
Xu Wenqing said: "Father, it's easy to get this disease when you get older, so I'll do it."
Wei Lian couldn't help but look sideways.
When he looked at those materials before, people from Taiyuan Hospital were also learning about the epidemic. Teenagers have a very careful heart and can notice vulnerable people.
… the temperament is also really straight.
"Who are you saying is older!" Xu Taiyi's face darkened.
Wei Lian said, "Everyone step back."
Doctor Xu: "..."
Xu Wenqing looked at Wei Lian curiously, and was very interested in this young man who could restrain his father.
The legendary son Lian, the noble prince favored by His Majesty, is only three years older than him.
But the clear eyes are not ignorant of the world, but rather like the transparency after the glitz.
Xu Wenqing, who was preoccupied with medical skills, couldn't fully understand Young Master Lian's eyes, but that look was enough to soothe people's hearts.
At least Zhou Xiaoshan relaxed the moment he heard Wei Lian speak.
Wei Lian approached and said warmly, "Girl, give me your hand."
His voice is good enough.
Eyebrows are also gentle enough.
Even if she covered the lower half of her face with a face towel, Zhou Xiaoshan knew that this was probably the most beautiful man she had ever seen in her life.
Zhou Xiaoshan pursed her lips. She had never seen outsiders since she was a child because of her leg disease. She was always very vigilant against strangers, but at this moment she reached out her hand cautiously and willingly.
Wei Lian became more and more gentle: "Roll up your sleeves and let me see, okay?"
Zhou Xiaoshan trembled: "But... Ugly."
Zhou Yushan hurriedly said, "The hill is not ugly, but the hill is the most beautiful."
Wei Lianwen smiled and said, "This house is ugly in my eyes, not worse than you."
Zhou Yushan: "..."
A room of ugly people: "… "
Are you so comforting!
Is your way of comforting people by belittling us!
Although it's true that none of them look better than Wei Lian...
However, Zhou Xiaoshan was amused by this sentence, and said "um" in a low voice, and while gathering courage to roll up his sleeves, he didn't dare to look directly away.
Many people took a deep breath.
The girl's face and other parts are still the same as ordinary people, but the entire right arm is completely rotten from bottom to top, and you can even see maggots squirming.
This is the second day.
The infection rate of this plague is actually not high. Compared with several major plagues recorded in history, millions of people were infected and died at every turn. The infection caused by this plague only spread among tens of thousands of people in Jiangzhou, and almost all of those infected later were close relatives.
Because the symptoms are too obvious, patients from other homes are far away when they see them, and they die too quickly.
You can see the horror of this plague.
Wei Lian's expression remained the same: "Open your mouth, stretch your tongue."
Zhou Xiaoshan opened his mouth obediently: "Ah—"
The imperial physicians began to whisper, discussing what disease this was.
"The skin is festering, and it can be contagious. It may be snake coil sore. The main therapy should be to clear away heat and relieve dampness, promote qi and relieve pain, and use herbs such as gentian, raw land, scutellaria baicalensis, and mountain gardenia to suffer..."
"Don't talk nonsense. Snake coil sore is not a serious disease, how can it cause death? Festering pus, red tongue with little coating, this old man thinks it is a sign of heat toxin invagination..."
"You're talking nonsense too!"
The imperial physicians have their own opinions, and they are about to fight, and they have not been able to discuss the results. After all, this disease is beyond their existing cognition, and they are helpless at the moment.
Wei Lian turned a deaf ear to those speculations, looked at Zhou Xiaoshan's complexion and tongue coating, and asked about some other symptoms.
An imperial doctor couldn't help but ask, "Young Master, why don't you check your pulse?"
Wei Lian asked for a long time, but didn't touch Zhou Xiaoshan's wrist.
Could it be that there is no real ability, and you will not be able to diagnose
No wonder they questioned, they had never heard of Young Master Lianhui's medical skills. Even if you know a little about fur, how can you compare with an imperial physician.
People always have confidence in their profession. Even if I can't judge it by myself, I don't think other "laymen" can see it.
Wei Lian lowered his eyes: "I don't touch her."
He can't guarantee whether he will get sick after touching the patient's skin, and whether he will be able to develop a prescription within the six-day death period.
Although Zhou Yushan can prove that not everyone who has been in contact with a patient will get sick, and Wei Lian's own foundation is good enough... But as a person who is at risk of death, he must be foolproof.
He came with the determination to die, but it didn't mean that he really accepted his life and waited for death.
He has to fight for it.
As soon as Wei Lian said these words, everyone's expressions were different.
There is anger and there is contempt.
More of a questioning.
People's lives are at stake. At this time, what are men and women talking about
Xu Wenqing was not to be outdone: "Then I will come."
Wei Lian said, "You are useless."
This robbery, only he can resolve it.
It's not that he wasn't listening when the imperial physicians were discussing just now. After listening to it, he knew how unreliable it was.
The symptoms of this plague were similar to a symptom he had seen in medical books. At that time, he still thought, is there really such a strange disease in the world? There are things that are not in ordinary medical books, what the master gives him.
The master said that he was destined to have a master-disciple relationship with him. I wonder if it was because of his fate that he was destined to save this plague.
Xu Wenqing's eyes widened.
He has been called a medical prodigy since he was a child, and this is the first time he has been called useless!
An imperial doctor's tone was a little bad: "Then ask the son to step aside and let the minister diagnose it."
Wei Lian didn't answer, and said calmly, "Prepare me a silk thread."
Zhou Mingli couldn't help but ask, "What do you want silk thread for?"
Wei Lian lowered his eyelashes.
"Diagnosing the pulse by hanging wire."
