Chapter 66: The Great Drought Rises, the Great Plague Arrives! (4000 words~~)
Yun Xiangrong's sudden fainting made Chu Er panic, and hurriedly called someone to help Yun Xiangrong to the bed, and asked someone to tell Zhou Mu and ask a doctor to treat Yun Xiangrong.
"Doctor, how is my wife's condition?" Zhou Mu stood by the bed, watched the old doctor withdraw his hand and stood up, and hurriedly asked.
He had just bought drunk in the Drunken Red Mansion and was having a good time, but he was rushed by someone from the house to tell Yun Xiangrong that he had fainted, and hurried back, and his body was full of fat powder at the moment.
The old doctor frowned obviously displeased, walked to the side of the table to write a list, and said: "Mrs. Zun is overly worried, she has not recuperated well, and her body and bones are not good, which hurts her heart, so she will suddenly faint." This disease is not big or small, and it mainly depends on nourishment. As long as you can take care of yourself, you will naturally get better faster. ”
"I see." Zhou Mu frowned and nodded, took two steps closer to the doctor, and asked, "Then how can I recuperate so that she can recover as soon as possible?" ”
"On weekdays, pay attention to let the lady not work, spend less energy, and eat again" The old doctor said this, and looked up at Zhou Mu again, his eyes seemed to be cold.
Zhou Mu didn't know that he was surprised, but when he looked closely, he no longer had the coolness of Fang Cai.
I heard the old doctor continue: "If the husband can go to the place of fireworks and willow lanes less, I believe that the lady will not get this disease." ”
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Mu was stunned. The maidservants and servants in the house lowered their heads one after another, and did not dare to look at him with a smile.
The old doctor's words are extremely serious, this is to say that Zhou Mu often goes to that kind of place, which makes Yun Xiangrong feel depressed, and he will worry too much.
Zhou Mu's face was red for a while and green for a while, so funny.
He held his breath and was about to speak, when the old doctor went to hand him the list and said, "According to this list, you need to take the medicine for seven consecutive days, and after seven days, it is best to ask the doctor to take a look, and then consider whether to stop the medicine." ”
"Thank you, doctor, I'll do this" Zhou Mu thanked him with a sigh of relief, and was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"Consultation fee." I saw that the doctor stretched out his hand and handed it to him, and asked for the consultation fee directly.
Zhou Mu stared at that hand, and always felt that something was wrong in his heart. The old doctor saw his appearance, withdrew his hand sharply, and said, "Forget it, you can go back and ask the maid to send it." ”
"Doctor Sun, wait a minute." Zhou Mu didn't think of anything wrong, and felt that he was too careful, so he called Xiaosi and gave the old doctor two silver taels. Sent him out the door.
Dr. Sun got into the carriage and left, but instead of going to any medical center, he went to Yunyi Pavilion.
Yunyi Pavilion has not yet opened, and Fu Feng and a few trustworthy subordinates are busy.
Seeing Dr. Sun enter the house, Fufeng hurriedly greeted him, "Madame, are you okay?" ”
As soon as Dr. Sun entered the door, he began to pull the beard off his face, and then cleaned his face with the water in the basin, revealing his true appearance.
It's Sun Yi.
"It's fine. Just keep it for a few days. Sun Yi shook his head and said.
His own identity is dead, at least he can't go back to the Sun Sheng Medical Hall in the slum now, after all, the realm outside Liang Yuan over there, as soon as he shows up, it will expose his fake death, he doesn't care about himself, if it involves Izumo Xiangrong, it won't be beautiful.
The left and right Yunyi Pavilion has not opened, the place is spacious enough, and he is not bad for a casual meal, so he lives here.
Today, Chu'er hurriedly entered the door, saying that Yun Xiangrong was unconscious, so he disguised himself and went to treat him.
"That's good." Fufeng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Yun Xiangrong is kind to him, he naturally doesn't want Yun Xiangrong to have something, and the same is true for Sun Yi, because of Yun Xiangrong, the same benefactor, the two are quite close and get along well.
Yun Xiangrong's illness is half a month.
A few days ago, Zhou Mu was busy with business, and Xiaosi said that she was recovering well, so she was also at ease.
When he wanted to visit Yun Xiangrong, he was told by Xiao Si that the doctor said that Yun Xiangrong needed to recuperate, which was a real recuperation, and refused all visitors.
When Zhou Mu heard this, he dispelled the idea of visiting.
The left and right people are in the house, and they can't run.
This year, there has been very little rain since the beginning of spring, and the farmers have planted their crops, but there is no water for irrigation, and they thought that it would always rain. However, the weather is not beautiful, the sun continues to shine, not to mention the rain, even the moat and the surrounding areas of the capital and the river have fallen, and the drinking water is even more stretched.
Nowadays, not to mention clean spring water, even undrinkable river water is extremely sought-after, resulting in the already low water level of the river water drying up.
The people complained, even for the officials and the rich, it was extremely difficult.
Don't talk about the side. Let's just say that fresh fruits and vegetables, without rain, farmers will not be able to grow them, there will be no supply, and they will eat some dry goods and smoked meat every day, which also makes these high-ranking people suffer a lot.
All of them had sallow faces, sores in their mouths, and a foul smell when they spoke.
Officials and wealthy businessmen are still like this. The people were even more miserable, all of them had yellow faces and thin muscles, their eyes were blank, and some even fell ill because of this.
This situation shook the government and the opposition, and the emperor was also very worried, so he ordered the relevant ministries to prepare for rain, so Zhou Mu was busy, and he was not in the mood to entangle Yun Xiangrong to recuperate and not see anyone.
When he was miserable outside, Yun Xiangrong lived a free and easy life in his yard.
She had already been prepared for this year's drought, not only asked Fufeng to prepare enough vegetables, fruits and clean water, but also prepared ice cubes and anti-epidemic medicinal materials, so no matter how bitter it was outside, Yun Xiangrong was not affected in the slightest.
At this moment, Yun Xiangrong was lying on the beauty chair obliquely, with chilled grapes in the basin on the side, and stuffed grapes into his mouth while reading a book.
"Young lady, you are really amazing, like an unpredictable prophet, you actually expected that there would be a big drought this year, and you prepared so many things. I heard that people outside couldn't drink a sip of clean water, and they didn't have vegetables or fruits to eat, and many people were sick. Chu'er sat on the side and said in a low voice.
These days, although Yun Xiangrong stays at home, Chu'er has to move around every day, and she can get the news outside.
Yun Xiangrong was stunned when he heard this, has anyone already started to get sick?
The long-term drought became a disease, and in the previous life, this great drought also caused an epidemic to rage, with countless deaths and injuries. In this life, is it going to be repeated?
Yun Xiangrong put the book to the side, sat up straight and asked, "Is the disaster serious?" ”
"Hmm." Chu Er nodded, she knew that Yun Xiangrong was concerned about these, and after thinking carefully about what she heard, she said: "Now the crops in the field have dried up, the river water and drinking water are decreasing, and the river level has dropped sharply. ”
"Got it. Tonight, when they bring something to Fufeng, you tell him that what I have told him to do will be done within five days. Yun Xiangrong frowned.
Yun Xiangrong remembered that in the previous life, the prayer for rain failed, the people fell into panic, and the matter of snatching grass root bark occurred under the restlessness, and then the people who were already weak were infected with diseases, but after five days, the epidemic broke out. Recalling the events of his previous life, Yun Xiangrong felt more and more pressed for time.
Two days later, the emperor began the long-awaited prayer for rain, and everyone waited in anticipation for the ceremony to be completed under the scorching sun, but the ending was destined to be disappointing.
Not a drop of rain fell.
In everyone's disappointment, everyone went home, and then people began to migrate south, and some people grabbed grass roots, bark, leaves, and other green things, but the consequence of this situation was that many people could not afford to get sick, and the disease was contagious.
Earlier, a medical hall of Sun Sheng Medical Center was opened in the west of the city, and the doctor in it was very young, but his temperament was extremely eccentric, and he was full of people and style, and sometimes he was sneering and cold.
This is simply cutting off one's own financial route.
Under this kind of drought, everyone is in danger and their hearts are bitter, and they are even more respectful of this strange medical center.
When the epidemic came, many people went to the good medical center in the city, but this strange medical center was not cared for.
"Doctor Sun, we don't have a single patient, so it's not okay to go on like this." The helper sighed and spoke.
Sun Yi flipped through the medical book casually and said indifferently: "It will be soon." ”
When the doctors in the city were diagnosed with a contagious disease, the nobles who were greedy for life and fear death would drive the poor people out of the city, and the hospitals in every direction would be overcrowded.
And he's prepared for it here. At that time, there will definitely be people flocking over, not afraid of no patients, but afraid of being too busy!
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of Yun Xiangrong. is like a god for her material, and I admire her from the bottom of my heart.
Just when he was a little distracted, someone rushed into the hospital with a yellow-skinned man and foaming at the mouth.
"Doctor, doctor. Save people, he's dying. Someone shouted in a hurry.
Sun Yi put down the medical book in his hand, and quickly stepped forward to diagnose the pulse, and then there was a series of treatments.
In the next few days, as Sun Yi said to the helper at the beginning, there were patients every day, and even they couldn't keep busy.
Even Yun Xiangrong took the opportunity to dress up as a man. Helping out in the infirmary with Chu'er.
The epidemic came unexpectedly, every hospital in the outer city was crowded with people, and even more so in the suburbs, however, not every hospital can cure the patient, most of them can only be controlled in a small area, and sometimes people will die if they are not controlled properly, but only the Sun Sheng medical hall on the edge of the old locust tree in the west of the city is really a cure for the disease.
This made everyone move when they heard the wind and went to Sun Sheng's medical hall to seek medical treatment.
Sun Sheng's medical hall is almost crowded!
In the imperial study, the emperor was furious.
"Didn't I say that I could move Heaven when I came to pray for rain? Now I pray for rain, what about the rain? The rain did not pray, but it caused a great epidemic, you say, how should this matter be handled? The Emperor rebuked loudly.
The ministers below lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
The emperor roared, feeling thirsty, and brought water to drink, and the imported water tasted some, which made him frown suddenly.
This natural disaster is so troublesome, not only is the name of the people boring, but even he, the emperor, is not much better, and the water he drinks still has a taste!
The ministers did not dare to touch his brow at this time, and looked at his nose and nose.
"Usually, one by one is not very powerful, but when it comes to employing people, they are all dumb." When the emperor saw that no one spoke, he became even more angry.
"Father, the top priority is to control the epidemic to prevent it from spreading. Erchen heard that there is a medical center in the west of the city that has been able to cure patients, and if he can get the prescription of this medical center, he will definitely be able to control the epidemic. As for the major drought, as long as the disaster is brought under control and a water source that can be drunk with peace of mind can be found, the emotions of the victims will be alleviated. Situ Yan stood up, bowed respectfully, and said.
"Your Highness is right." Suddenly, there was a large echo.
In fact, most of the people present at the news in the west of the city know that the epidemic will be contagious, and no one dares to guarantee that the news is true.
"There is such a thing!" The emperor was slightly surprised, and said: "In this case, the Imperial Hospital dispatched the imperial doctor out of the city to help with disaster relief, control the epidemic, and dispatched a team of soldiers to form a disaster relief team, so as not to take advantage of the small opportunity." Who wants to be responsible? ”
There was silence again, and there was no squeak from the imperial study.
The emperor was disappointed in his heart, his gaze swept over everyone calmly, and finally landed on Situ Yan's body.
Situ Yan stood in the middle, his posture was straight, and his overly beautiful face did not have the slightest expression of ordinary frivolity and laughter, and said lightly: "Erchen asks for his life." ”
The emperor looked at Situ Yan for a while before he said lightly: "Okay, I will appoint you as a special envoy for disaster relief, and later go to the treasury to allocate one million taels of silver for disaster relief." This Shang Fang sword is given to you, you can cut it first and then play it. ”
The ministers below gasped. but they all bowed their heads and said nothing.
"Thank you, Lord Longen, long live my emperor, long live, long live." Situ Yan hurriedly knelt down and raised his hands to take the sword.
After the dispersal of the dynasty, the ministers left separately, and not long after Situ Yan left the palace, he got into Huo Chen's carriage.
"Let's go, let's go to the medical hall in the west of the city and have a look first." Situ Yan said to Huo Chen.
Huo Chen hummed lightly, but what he was thinking about was Yun Xiangrong.
In the early days, he had a lot on his hands. couldn't be busy, it happened that she was recuperating, so she recruited Han Mi back, and now I don't know what her situation is.
When I arrived at the Sun Sheng Medical Hall in the west of the city, I couldn't help but be stunned when I saw people coming and going inside and outside, even if Situ Yan and Huo Chen had heard about it.
If you didn't know, you really thought it was a vegetable market!
Not only that. There are also many people who have built sheds outside and simply live here so that they can be treated in time.
"Let's let, let's let's go, there's a sick person coming." Someone shouted loudly, and the two turned sideways to avoid it.
Someone in the room immediately greeted him, slender but slightly petite, with a dark face, but a pair of eyes that were shining and so good-looking.
