Zhang Yue stayed in Nanling for three days, mainly to arrange the repair of the ancestral tomb and the establishment of the ancestral shrine.

Then, it was time to have a big feast and entertain guests from all over the world.

This is also the basic operation of the Han people after they have achieved fame.

By the way, Zhang Yue also went to the manor and arranged the future ceramic firing work.

Then, Zhang Yue took Zhao Rouniang, said goodbye to her sister-in-law, and embarked on a trip back to Beijing.

When he returned to Chang'an City, it was already autumn and August Renshen (twenty-eighth), and the willows in Chang'an City had already lost their leaves.

Chang'an City, which was once prosperous and lively, has also entered a season of depression.

Pedestrians in the market have become sparse.

This made Zhang Yue very surprised.

You know, Chang'an City is a super city with a population of almost 300,000!

On this planet, there is no doubt that it is a supercity.

Although the weather is getting colder now, it's not winter yet!

Why did the market become like this?

And when he returned to Jianzhang Palace, he found that the situation might be even worse than he imagined!

The road at the entrance of the palace has been sprinkled with lime.

And the palace guards are even more veiled.

"What's going on?" Zhang Yue couldn't help but step forward, found the palace gate guarding the door, and asked Sima Hou.

"In the return service, it is Chang'an that has a typhoid fever epidemic...... this Sima replied very cautiously: "Jingzhao Yin reported to the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven ordered the whole palace to carry out the epidemic eradication ......"

"Where did the typhoid epidemic occur?" When Zhang Yue heard this, he immediately asked with a stern expression.

Typhoid!

The greatest enemy of human health before the Common Era!

In the concept of traditional Chinese medicine, it is a kind of epidemic infectious disease caused by epidemic virus cold, typhoid bacillus, and various diseases caused by stroke and other factors.

The only infectious diseases caused by influenza or typhoid bacilli that are highly contagious and highly pathogenic are needed to eradicate the epidemic and make the Han court like a great enemy.

An outbreak of either of these two diseases is bound to cause devastating damage!

Because, in the current Han Dynasty, or the whole earth, there is no medicine that can effectively treat it!

Whether it is an infectious disease caused by influenza or typhoid bacillus, it is a terminal illness today!

"Hui Yu Zhonggong, it is a few Luli ...... south of the monk Guanli in Penny Street," the Sima officer also replied tremblingly: "It is said that hundreds of cases have been discovered...... Jing Zhaoyin has sealed off all the local and nearby Luli, and the prince of the Jinwu Guard has also ordered that the people are forbidden to go out at will......"

To the people of this era, typhoid fever, especially the contagious typhoid fever, was almost indistinguishable from the devil.

Once it appears, it means dead.

And it's a lot of deaths, lots of people!

Especially in a megacity like Chang'an City.

Highly pathogenic infectious diseases can ravage the whole city in a short period of time.

Its high fatality rate is terrifying!

Not to mention, the flu virus that swept the world during World War I killed more people than died in the war!

As for now?

Fear......

Zhang Yue didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately entered the palace.

He first settled Zhao Rouniang in the small building, instructed his subordinates to take care of it, and then immediately went to the jade hall.

When he arrived at the Jade Hall, he clearly noticed that the level of vigilance in the Jade Hall had increased.

Under the wall door, there are already three steps and one post, and the steps are sprinkled with lime and realgar and even a lot of burning wormwood.

This is also the experience summed up by the ancestors of Zhuxia in the long-term struggle against influenza and infectious diseases.

But......

Zhang Yue knew very well that only high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen could have the conditions to do so.

Ordinary Shengdou small people are now almost all exposed to the virus.

Epidemic prevention work is not just something that can be done by simply isolating the epidemic area.

Not to mention, in this day and age, almost no one knows the difference between influenza and typhoid bacillus viruses.

The former can be spread through the air, saliva, and other things on the body of patients, even fleas and rats.

And the latter is essential for the purification of water sources!

What's more serious is that Zhang Yue still doesn't know, did the epidemic only break out in Chang'an City or was brought in by people from outside the city?

So, time is of the essence!

He directly raised his seal, passed through the strictly guarded wall door, and walked up the steps of the jade hall, just in time, Shangguan Ji came out of the jade hall.

Zhang Yue immediately stepped forward and asked, "Brother Shangguan, where is Your Majesty now?" ”

"Zhang Shizhong is back......" Shangguan Ji was surprised, and said, "Your Majesty is discussing with Jing Zhaoyin and Prime Minister Shi Meifu......

"But you're talking about the epidemic?" Zhang Yue asked.

"It's ......" Shangguan Ji sighed and said, "Now, the ministers are helpless, Your Majesty is furious, and even Shang Shuling has been reprimanded......"

He looked at Zhang Yue and said, "Zhang Shizhong might as well avoid this matter for the time being......

In Shangguan Ji's view, this disaster is already unstoppable.

There is simply no way to turn things around with human power.

The only thing you can do is to protect yourself.

This is also the consensus of the current ministers of the government and the opposition, except for Jing Zhaoyin, who is directly responsible for the security of Chang'an, and Shi Shi, the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who is unavoidable, everyone else is avoided.

But this time, the Son of Heaven didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong.

He actually asked the ministers to come up with a way to control and even eliminate the disaster!

It's simply ......

Force somebody's hand!

Zhang Yue listened, but shook his head and said: "There is something in the country, and my generation is deeply favored by the country, how can we ignore it?" ”

"Besides, this matter is related to the safety of the people and all the people, how can it be avoided?"

He directly took Shangguan Ji's hand, ignored his objections and protests, and said with a smile: "Brother Shangguan, you and I will go to meet the Son of Heaven together, how about asking Ying to take charge of this matter?" ”

Shangguan Ji was about to cry.

He struggled desperately, trying to resist.

But......

However, all his strength, in front of Zhang Yue, like a three-year-old child, could be completely ignored.

He directly pulled Shangguan Ji and walked towards the top of the jade hall.

Shangguan Ji was helpless.

There is no way, does he dare to refuse this colleague's 'kindness' in front of everyone.

This must be known by the Son of Heaven, let alone fight for the position of the servant.

I'm afraid it's this waiter, and it's the end of it!

He had no choice but to smile bitterly and whispered to Zhang Yue: "Zhang Shizhong...... Why are you bothered?

In his opinion, Zhang Yue wanted to pull him into the pit!

Is it because I'm more honest and easy to bully?

After thinking about it carefully, Shangguan Ji had to admit that in front of this colleague, he might indeed be an honest man!

Zhang Yue chuckled lightly and said, "Brother Shangguan, rest assured, the foolish brother will not harm the elder brother's ......."

Epidemic prevention work is the easiest to achieve.

Especially in the current situation.

Zhang Yue believed that Shangguan Ji would definitely be grateful afterwards.
