An Empire as a Betrothal Gift - Chapter 80

After all the patients in Qingning county were deceived successfully, the people below did the same thing and concentrated the patients from other counties to Qingping county.

The epidemic situation in Qingping county is very serious. The symptoms of the disease were obvious the next day, and the mortality rate was 100%. It should not have spread so fast. The bad thing is that before the arrival of the imperial court, the people of Qingping county did a stupid thing.

…… They gathered together and held a sacrifice ceremony of “sending the plague God”.

In the era when the whole world was in awe of ghosts and gods, the local people in the backward mountains were especially superstitious, and firmly believed that the plague was brought by the God of plague. As long as the God of plague is sent away, the disaster will naturally leave. As a result, people from all over the county gathered together with patients from all over the country, kneeling and kowtowing to the sacrificial altar, chanting words and praying.

When Wei Lian heard about this, his temple jumped violently.

…… In his eyes, this is simply the scene of large-scale droplet spread, large-scale gathering epidemic accident, and large-scale mortal death scene.

It is conceivable that the God of pestilence failed to send him away. More than half of the whole Qingping county was attacked, but almost all the troops were destroyed except some strong young people.

By the time the government relief team arrived, there were corpses everywhere and the dead were all over the sky.

After Weilian took over Qingping County, he quickly took isolation measures to separate patients from healthy people. All the patients were concentrated in the south, while the healthy people lived in the North temporarily. They did not contact each other. The patient is taken care of by the medical officer, and the whole body should be well protected. Taiyi is responsible for judging the severity of each patient’s symptoms to determine the dosage of medication.

Some family members were not willing to be separated from the patients at the beginning, and some patients were not willing to cooperate obediently, as if they felt that being isolated was a sentence of their own death. Others think that what the medical officer gave them was poison to kill them. They were killed by knocking over the medicine bowl on purpose.

All the doctors were in agony. We should know that there are so many patients, the medicinal materials are in short supply, and some people have to waste so much. Their heart aches and they have to drip blood.

It’s not easy to make medicine for so many people. There was not enough medicine for the children. These old doctors were watching the stove by themselves. Many of them were tired and dizzy for several days. Painstaking efforts to boil out of such a failed, do not care to die also angry.

After hearing this, Zhou Yushan took the initiative to propose a solution.

That day, Zhou Yushan pushed Zhou Xiaoshan in a wheelchair and appeared in front of the people in Qingping County, proving to the public that the imperial court had a way to save them.

“Father, fellow countrymen, I can testify! As you know, my mother died of this disease. Xiaoshan also got sick at the beginning. I’ve been running around Jiangzhou city these days to discuss with the dog officer. The dog officer has now been put into prison by the young master. They are different from the dog officials who persecuted us in the past! ” Zhou Yushan said in a high voice, “Xiaoshan is my sister. She also has this disease. The whole right arm was rotten some days ago, but now! Look at it! Hill, show them. ” When Zhou Yushan said this, he lowered his voice.

Zhou Xiaoshan has never been out of the house since he was a child. For the first time, he was a little nervous in the face of so many eyes, but he still obediently rolled up his sleeve and showed his arm.

It takes a lot of courage for a girl to expose her arms in front of outsiders, but in order to save so many lives in Qingping County, she volunteered.

The arms of the girls who grew up in civilian families were not as white and delicate as those of the daughters of the boudoir, but their heads were intact and there was no trace of decay.

The excited people were quiet for a moment, which made Zhou Yushan’s voice more clear: “do you see it! She’s OK! After drinking the medicine prescribed by the young master, she was no more serious that day. On the second day, she was much lighter. Now on the third day, she was completely well! Xiaoshan and I grew up with you. We won’t cheat you! ”

After a moment’s inaction, the people broke out into fierce looting. Originally, they avoided medicine, but now they are all flocking to it: “give me a bowl!”

“I want some medicine!”

“Does this medicine really guarantee that we can get rid of the disease?”

“No matter, give me a bowl too!”

“I want it too!”

When Zhou Yushan retreated, Wei Lian looked at him and said, “well done.”

Zhou Yushan shyly smile: “childe saved the life of Xiaoshan, grass people just moved a few words, just a little effort.”

Wei Lian looked down at Zhou Xiaoshan’s blanket covered legs and said, “I can cure her legs.”

Zhou Yushan.

“Save people to the end.” Wei Lian chuckled and said, “it’s a piece of cake.”

Zhou Yushan’s eyes trembled, and he knelt down immediately and kowtowed: “you are so kind, you should repay the grass people when they are cattle and horses!”

“No need.” Wei Lian droops his eyes.

“I said, it’s a piece of cake.”

After a few days, things began to get back on track. For the time being, the government affairs of Jiangzhou were left to Zhou Mingli, while Wei Lian gave Zhou Xiaoshan acupuncture and moxibustion every day, along with medication, so as to slowly restore her legs. In the rest of the time, she would also pay attention to the progress of the epidemic. The doctors and the doctors were busy with seeing, boiling and feeding the patients, and everyone was very busy.

However, the speed of treatment can not catch up with the speed of death. The medicinal materials are limited, it takes time to decoct them, and there are not enough people to take care of them.There are dead people every day in Qingping County, and there are mountains of corpses. It can only be said that the situation is much better than before the arrival of the court. But in the face of life and death, human resources are still small, and all they can do is try their best to save them.

The bodies were burned by Wei Lian to prevent them from becoming a new source of infection. However, this was also protested by the families of the dead, who believed that people should be buried in peace after death, and burning remains is a setback to the bones and ashes, and innocent people should not be treated in this way. Some family members gathered to take the body away and bury it.

Some soldiers could not understand this practice, but because of the prestige established by Wei Lian these days, they chose to obey the order unconditionally and intend to speak with the families of the dead who protested.

Wei Lian said, “let them take it.”

The soldiers were stunned and got out of the way.

A few days later, the news came that all the families who took the bodies were infected with the plague, while those who chose to leave the bodies were safe.

On the same day, some of the soldiers were found to be infected. The reason was that she had secretly picked off the towel and breathed.

At this point, no one dared to question Wei Lian’s order. He said he would burn the body, and no one stopped him.

All things have proved that the childe is right. He has become a myth in the hearts of the people.

Wei Lian sent the sick families and soldiers to the isolation area. Now, with drug treatment, mild patients can recover quickly.

However, due to the shortage of manpower and medicinal materials, many people have been dragged from mild illness to severe disease, and they have not been able to wait for the bowl of life-saving medicine until they die.

Driven by the desire to survive, people become selfish.

There was a drug rush in the quarantine area.

Xu Wenqing has become a little silent these days.

He’s a doctor, but he hasn’t seen much of life and death. He was born in the prosperous Yongping, the biggest disease he had ever seen was to treat people with headache and fever.

But now he’s facing life and death every day.

Looking at the separation of yin and Yang between husband and wife, parents with white hair send black hair, young children lose their parents, all of which are extremely painful. Anyone who has the ability to empathize will also feel sad.

Xu Wenqing has been taking care of patients for days. The patient who had spoken with him yesterday may be covered with white cloth and carried out to burn a handful of ashes today. Such things happen so much that he doesn’t even dare to talk to patients any more.

Tai doctors are people who are in close contact with patients. Even if there are thousands of preventive measures, there are still a lot of doctors who have become patients. Can have a certain position in the hospital, are elderly, the body resistance is not very good. Even though the doctor would take medicine the first time when he was ill, there was still an old doctor who left them.

Xu Wenqing called his grandfather, and he was also highly respected in Tai hospital.

On the day of his death, the whole hospital mourned for him for a moment, then suppressed his grief and continued to work to save his life.

Wei liansilent came to the scene, to the old doctor’s body gently bowed, and then ordered to be burned.

In the blaze of fire, Xu Wenqing stood aside for a long time.

It seemed to be the last straw that crushed him.

“Dad.” The 17-year-old turned to his father’s eyes and said, “I thought it would be very sad if I stayed in Yongping and couldn’t help. But I found that I came, but still can not save them, watching them die, it seems more sad

Doctor Xu touched his son’s head and said, “do you want to come again?”

Xu Wenqing nodded: “coming.”

“I can’t save so many people But at least it can save some people. ”

Xu Taiyi said happily: “we have a good offspring in the Xu family.”

Two days later, Dr. Xu contracted the plague while taking care of the patient.

Xu Wenqing took care of him in person.

Xu Taiyi is a mild disease, his body bone is also strong, as long as take a few doses of medicine can be great. However, when Xu Wenqing was going to serve Xu Taiyi, a middle-aged man who was almost half decayed ran to him, snatched away the medicine bowl with his last strength and drank it down: “give me the medicine!”

Xu Wenqing was stunned and said angrily, “what are you doing for robbing medicine! You are so sick that the dose of this medicine is of no use to you! ”

The man said grimly, “it’s better than that! Why can you drink medicine first? I didn’t see it when I was dying

Xu Wenqing choked: “now the medicinal materials are in short supply, it needs time to boil, and then wait –”

“wait for Laozi to die!” Han sneered, “what? Your life is your life, but ours is not? ”

Xu Wenqing’s face turned red with anger: “but my father is still going to save you when he is well! He got sick to save you

Since it’s not right for you to save my life? That’s what he should do! ”

Xu Wenqing was suddenly speechless.

Xu Wenqing shivered as he watched the big man go.

The innocent boy began to doubt the significance of learning medicine.He found out that he had saved lives.

But it can’t cure people.

The big man didn’t survive in the end. The mild medicine didn’t work for him. He still died.

Xu Wenqing went to boil another bowl of medicine and gave it to his father. After his recovery, Xu Taiyi put himself into the ranks of rescuing patients.

Xu Wenqing is more and more silent with a trace of indifference. He seems to have a knot in his heart.

Recently, there was another farce. A patient in Qingning county was sent back after being cured. However, her son was unwilling to accept the old mother. Instead, he yelled, “where is the gold?”! Who wants this old man? I want gold

“If you don’t give me the gold, I’ll make trouble! How can your court lackeys break their promises? ”

It’s sad and ridiculous that there’s more than one such thing.

“Childe, a lot of people outside gathered to make trouble and said they would give them gold. It was very serious…” The guard hesitated, “or Shall we give it to them? ”

After all, the childe did promise, and they didn’t lack those two gold

Xu Wenqing sneered at him. People are insatiable, they can be bad to what extent, he has seen these days.

Wei Lian asked, “do you really think it is reasonable to save people’s lives and give them gold?”

The bodyguard said, “nature is totally unreasonable! But so many of them are making trouble… ” More is better than less.

“You remember, no reason is no reason, not unreasonable people, should stand on their side.” Wei Lianwen said, “do you believe it or not, I’ll give them a ride today, and everyone will follow suit in the future. All of them are trying to drop pie in the sky. On the contrary, people with real duty will be hurt.”

“Although there is a lot of money for disaster relief, it will be used to appease the refugees. Jiangzhou now has a lot of business to do, but it should never be used here. ” Wei Lian’s tone was calm. “If you send orders, those who make trouble will be sent to prison for seven days. He that stirs the heart, the staff is thirty. There is no amnesty for those who do not mend their ways. ”

“Yes

Xu Wenqing was stunned.

He quietly looked at Wei Lian’s delicate eyebrows and eyes, and suddenly felt that the young man who was not much older than him had a kind of gentle and powerful breath.

Then Wei Lian looked at him with a smile.

“Doctor Xu said that you seem to have something on your mind recently.”

Xu Wenqing’s face changed slightly.

I didn’t expect that my father could see through his mind

Wei Lian turned and said, “follow me.”
