Chapter 44 Career Unexpectedly Inherited Edict (3)

Zhu Cihong returned to the outer mansion, distributed the desserts to everyone, retreated left and right, and wrote the diary of the day. In the next few days, the prince seemed to be fine, and even such a major event as the door number of the Quanjing Division was customized, he only responded lightly "I know".

The season is fast into July.

The fall of Mars to the west in July is a sign of cooler weather. July here is the seventh month of the weekly calendar, and August of the summer calendar. Then at this time, because of the Xiaoice River period, it coincided with the proverbs of the Zhou Dynasty again.

"Your Highness, according to the budget, if you don't have an income of 20,000 taels of silver this month, you will have a deficit next month." Yao Tao carefully sent the report of the second department to Zhu Cihong's desk, and reminded him loudly.

I have to buy winter clothes next month. A complete set of winter clothes and a tael of silver, the prince wants to buy two sets for each of the soldiers, which alone is 10,000 taels. At the beginning of August, the treasury would allocate 5,000 taels to the prince, which was considered the cost of maintaining the guard. However, Zhu Cihong's food expenses for the guards were far higher than the inner palace imagined, so the money was consumed just for eating.

There is also the firewood salary after the weather turns colder.

The people of the martial arts left guard still have to pay money to support them.

Yao Tao just thought about it, and he felt like a mountain was on top.

However, the prince had a good time and didn't care at all.

"Got it." The prince stamped the audited report and handed it back to Yao Tao: "Take it for archiving." ”

"Your Highness...... This money and food ......"

"Someone will deliver it in a few days." Prince Road.

Since the prince said so, Yao Tao couldn't say anything. She has been holding meetings with foreign officials and central officials these days, and although she never said a word, she never left a word. She is well aware that the development of the epidemic is directly related to the enthusiasm of the powerful and wealthy businessmen to donate, and although the prince issued a warning that the epidemic will be repeated in July, the reality is that fewer and fewer people die every day.

Anyone who has the heart can draw this conclusion from the side of the human field.

And this is still the merit of the crown prince. He sent people to distribute lime from house to house, gave masks and gloves according to the size of the population, repeatedly emphasized the importance of hygiene and cleanliness, banned the killing of cats and dogs, and encouraged rodent extermination. Anyone who had a plague would be immediately quarantined by the neighborhood, and the well-dressed guards of the East Palace would go in and spray lime and spirits, and burn everything that could be burned.

Under such a series of measures, even the displaced people on the road have been sent to the quarantine area outside the city, and this menacing epidemic seems to be extinguished in the blink of an eye.

However, just entering July, the epidemic broke out again like the prince's warning.

Overnight, more than a dozen households showed symptoms of plague, and the fire shop immediately sounded the alarm. People who heard the bell closed their doors one after another, steamed and washed their clothes and bedding, and washed their hands with garlic juice.

The guards of the East Palace came out when they heard the alarm, covering themselves in leather clothes from head to toe, with a gauze on their heads and masks inside, and they were well prepared. Armed with four-foot knives at their waists and long-legged spears of one foot and four feet, they surrounded the homes of those who had broken out of the plague and shouted, "No entry or exit!" Kill around! ”

"Sir! I'm fine! I really don't have the plague! Someone in the house ran out crying.

"Those who have not been infected are squatting at the door! No one is allowed to touch anyone! Xiao Tugeng shouted loudly. He was originally in good health, he has eaten and slept well these days, and he is more comfortable than in the past, and the muscles on his body are gradually rising, and at first glance it makes people think that he is a Han general.

With his physical advantage and bold spirit, Xiao Tugeng has become the general manager of the Second Bureau of the First Division of the Central Military Department, with more than 100 people under his command and two personal guards. In the martial arts system of the Ming Dynasty, this belongs to the eight-rank petty official, but for a bitter child born in mining, it has been a earth-shaking change.

Under such encouragement, Xiao Tugeng became more and more serious in his work, and even a little strict, acting in accordance with the "Code of Conduct" and "Regulations" at a glance, and did not give any truth to the military judges who accompanied the bureau.

Military judges can take credit by finding faults.

"Sir! I'm really fine, I've got silver! Let me out! Someone wailed.

The nearby Chief A stood at a distance and glanced at him, and said to Xiao Tugeng: "This is the head of the Chen family, and his son is the governor of the General Administration Department. ”

Xiao Tugeng didn't even raise his eyelids, and shouted: "Kill those who dare to go out!" Stay where you are! Don't touch it! ”

The foyer of the Chen family was quickly filled with people, and everyone didn't even dare to breathe.

"Weishenme without a mask!" Xiao Tugeng stepped forward with his own soldiers and shouted.

"Sir...... There aren't enough masks to be issued...... "The housekeeper of the Chen family cried.

"Nonsense! The crown prince is distributed in real numbers of the population! We all have accounts! Of course, Xiao Tugeng knew that it was impossible for these big households to report the population according to real numbers, but this kind of transition filled him with a happy feeling of schadenfreude.

A mask is not worth much, and if a large family really attaches importance to immunization, it will be better to make it themselves. The reason why he didn't do it was because he didn't take the prince's warning to heart. On the contrary, those at the bottom of the population pay more attention to this, they have a natural spirit of obedience, even if someone hides the population, they will make a mask and wear it afterwards.

"Get out of the way, wait!" Xiao Tugeng stepped into the gate, and the soldiers on the left and right used spears to clear the way through the crowd.

The archery team, led by the captain, followed Xiao Tugeng into the house and established a second cordon, and once the patient came up with it, it would attract a volley. The archery skills of these archers did not satisfy Zhu Cihong, but ten bows were still enough to kill the people of Buyi at a short distance.

Xiao Tugeng's side has not yet opened, and suddenly there is a scream outside the door.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Tugeng frowned.

After a while, someone came to report: "Report! Wuqi found that someone had come out of the dog hole and had corrected the Fa. ”

The old man of the Chen family was stunned when he heard this, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Garbo! Boa! Seeing that no one agreed, he looked hideous: "You killed my son!" Do you know that he is an official of the court? You ...... have to die."

"Go back!" Xiao Tugeng shouted violently.

The old man of the Chen family staggered, howled and rushed towards Xiao Tugeng.

"Shoot!" Xiao Tugeng took a step back and ordered loudly.

The bowstring sounded twice, and two sharp arrows pierced the Chen family's master, and the huge momentum pushed him into the crowd, and he slowly fell down with his eyes open unwillingly.

No one dared to touch his corpse, and they all avoided it.

The prince had long explained the route and medium of the spread of the plague, but more people were still skeptical. Some of them are still more receptive to the saying that "the plague god descends to earth", but there are more people who would rather believe in it than believe in it. Washing their hands more often does not prevent them from worshipping God and seeking Buddha, so they often take a multi-pronged approach.

"Whoever dares to stand up will be killed!" Xiao Tugeng shouted loudly, looking at the pool of blood gradually accumulating on the ground without any compassion.

Think about the first time I saw a dead person last month, almost everyone looked away. Now that I've seen a lot, I don't think it's anything, it's just a piece of rotten meat.

"Here, here, here!" The chief outside shouted loudly when he saw the military doctor shrouded in blue, as if he had been pardoned.

The uniform of the military doctor is different from the red fat jacket of the Ming soldiers, but the blue clothes and pants. They wrapped their bodies tightly, and ordered the handymen to carry the garlic juice solution and lime, rush into the epidemic house, ask where the patients were, demarcate the quarantine area on the spot, and let people scrub with garlic juice.

In order to let people who did not get sick survive as much as possible, Zhu Cihong also set up a kind of wrapping cloth, which allows people to wrap themselves in cloth after stripping naked to prevent lice and fleas from remaining.

The military doctors acted swiftly and quickly completed the preliminary clean-up work. Only time will come after that. As a virulent infectious disease, the plague can be sent to a quarantine camp outside the city as long as there are no symptoms within three hours. If there is no seizure after 10 days of isolation, it can be regarded as free from infection and let it go.

However, if one person in each quarantine area becomes ill, the others will have to be transferred and the number of quarantine days will have to be recalculated.

In the absence of modern medical equipment, this time-consuming and laborious method can only be used. In any case, this is the maximum number of survivors to be preserved. During the Great Plague in Europe, there were no such humane epidemic prevention measures, just killing contacts as quickly as possible.

When the military doctor began to disinfect the entire mansion, the soldiers of the second bureau also moved from external alert to internal alert to ensure that the people in the mansion did not escape. When the full set of work is completed, the people will be taken to the quarantine camp, and these East Palace guards will also go to the isolation camp for disinfection and isolation.
