The carriage was faster than it came, and it stopped in about a while, and Huizhu looked out the window to see that this place was an old and dark bluestone deep alley, and on both sides of the alley was a brick yard side by side. didn't wait to look at it more, a courtyard door creaked open, and Xiao Luzi entered the courtyard openly.

The furnishings in the courtyard are very simple, only one bright and two dark three rooms facing the courtyard gate, a hundred-step square courtyard paved with bluestone slabs, an old locust tree, a well, and a grass-roofed stove room on the east side.

Xu Shi noticed Huizhu's scrutiny, and greeted the middle-aged woman outside the door and cowered: "Madam, the woman's house is shabby, and I have wronged you." Hearing the voice, the few people who were walking in front turned around, and the woman couldn't help but be even more timid, and a Hanchen who followed behind Yinzhen touched his forehead and reprimanded in a low voice: "Go to the stove room and make tea." The woman was in a panic and hurried back to the east stove room.

From this episode, Huizhu was a little apologetic, and in the next few hours, she was all supported by Xiaojuan, and she watched her nose and nose and heart to the side. Until I saw an old man in half-worn clothes pouring vinegar on the leech's body, and the leech's round body shrunk, and took a thin wooden strip to scrape down the leech, but no longer treated the wound, I couldn't help but say: "The blood has not stopped, and the wound has not been disinfected, what if the wound is stained by stolen goods?" When the words fell, everyone in the room was obviously uneasy, and their eyes looked at Huizhu in fear.

The flood has not receded, and in the disaster area, it is not as particular as in the palace. Huizhu self-examined her speechlessness, and then thought about it, the leech that bites Yinzhen grows from the bad water, and the bad water floats dead corpses and livestock corpses, which are very susceptible to epidemics, and she has not forgotten the epidemic in the 50th year of Kangxi. So he said: "Be careful to sail the Ten Thousand Year Ship, here can be equipped with potions to disinfect wounds?" ”

Everyone looked embarrassed, Huizhu thought for a while, and then asked, "What about the spirits?" ”…… I asked again about the disinfectant, but I found nothing, and said helplessly: "Vinegar, there is always the vinegar I just took." Everyone was still silent, and the old man stepped forward and sighed: "The flood is all flooded, and the road is not passable, since the flood has been flooded, the road was dredged only the day before yesterday, you are still a group of people, how can you have these spirits, salt and other things." The vinegar is the only one. After saying that, the old man shook his head and walked out of the house.

Huizhu looked at the old man's rickety back, and for a while she had mixed tastes, and she was ashamed. The woman hesitated for a long time, glanced at her man's face, stirred her clothes and stared at her feet: "The woman actually has a little rice wine, I don't know if it will be successful." Blood oozed from the wound on the leg of the noble man, and the woman's hometown had a local method, so she took the bamboo leaves and smashed them and touched them, which was to go to the leech bite to clear the blood. ”

Yin Zhen was worried about the flood, nodded casually, and Xiao Luzi hurriedly answered: "So, if you are tired, come over by pounding some bamboo leaves." As he spoke, he looked at the hour again and added, "See if you can eat something?" It's noon. "The woman had already gotten the words of her own man, and she had prepared the ingredients last night, and she answered smoothly. Huizhu knew that Yinzhen still had political affairs to discuss. He stopped and said, "Auntie, my master and servant will also go with you." The woman did not dare to disobey, and led Huizhu's master and servant to the outside of the house

Bamboo leaves are easy to find, there are bamboo leaves in the yard next door, Huizhu picked some, washed them with water, smashed them into two parts, and brought a copy of the warm water and rice wine prepared by the woman to the main house with Xiaojuan, and cleaned the wounds of the Yinzhen brothers. In the main room, the Yinzhen brothers and the three Hanchen were discussing the flood around a somewhat dilapidated table of eight immortals.

During the discussion, Yinzhen didn't say much, most of them were talked by three Hanchen, at most from time to time to interject half a sentence, or put forward opinions. Huizhu Judging from the expressions of the three Hanchen who specialize in paddy fields and river dam farming, they have a lot of respect for Yinzhen, which shows that Yinzhen is telling the truth, and he has put a lot of effort in advance.

For a while, Yin Zhen subconsciously knocked the "tuk tuk" on the table twice, and said: "The area around Kifu is the area of the well field during the three generations, but before the rain falls for half a month this year, the crops in the field have been submerged in water, is this not as favorable as before?" No, there are quite a few reasons for the people. The four of them listened attentively, and Yinzhen said: "Zhili, Baoding and other places are thousands of miles of flat land, mostly low-lying land, but there are few ditches for drainage. Yunxiang hurriedly said: "It is precisely because of these two points that this year's heavy rain has caused a serious disaster and too many displaced people." If you build a ditch or store water, you may be able to benefit it. ”

Yin Zhen was not annoyed by the defendant's words, nodded and said: "Husband water, gathering it is harmful, and scattering it is beneficial; If you use it, you will benefit it, and if you discard it, it will be harmful. In my opinion, if you use this water, it will also be a benefit. Because Yinzhen, the only person in the house who knew about it, did not hide his identity, he pondered for a while, and said: "Seven or eight years ago, I began to understand the paddy fields in Jiangnan and other places. I believe that since paddy fields can be built in the south of the Yangtze River to prevent floods and ensure harvests in drought and flood, the same can be done in the north. Thirteenth brother, I plan to take this opportunity to start water conservancy farming around Gyeonggi, and then spread it to the entire north. ”

It turns out that Yin Zhen had a plan many years ago, she always knew that he attached great importance to farming, but she didn't expect it to be prepared for many years. This reminded her of the last years of Kangxi, she accompanied him to recuperate in the Old Summer Palace, and he was bent on making up water conservancy and farming. This is often extremely difficult, and it is a time-consuming, laborious and cost-intensive task. Another Hanchen continued: "There are many floods, and the emperor also went to the river dam to see with his own eyes, and many places have been damaged and changed. If you really want to water conservancy and farmland, you need to get all parts of the capital to investigate the origin of the river, the characteristics of the water potential, the degree of water damage, and the causes of water damage, and then control the river. ”

Han Chen, who belongs to the owner of the courtyard, said: "The land of the capital is Zhili. And the water of Zhili is confluent with Tianjin, in order to reach the sea. As for the specifics, it needs to be visited on the spot. But now that the rain has not stopped, the floods may hit again, and the top priority is to appease the displaced people for disaster relief! Yinzhen appreciated it in his eyes and agreed: "When the flood season is over, the flood waters will all recede, and it is also a matter of winter to be able to do my best to cultivate fields with water conservancy." Now it is imperative to resolve the displaced people. ”

At the mention of this matter, everyone's faces were gloomy, and Yun Xiang said with a sad face: "The place where the homeless and hungry people gather happens to be around the capital. After every natural disaster, there is a literary meaning, that is, preparations are made in advance, and there are many casualties. And born on the outskirts of the imperial city this year, the epidemic is very likely to spread to the capital. In this way, only the gate of the capital is closed, but the political affairs of each province need to be conveyed every month. Halfway through the words, he sighed again and again.

Hearing this, Yin Zhen's eyes were cold, and his heart was furious. He has only been on the throne for three years, not to mention the emptiness of the treasury, first there were continuous wars such as the Qinghai Mutiny, then there were shanty riots, and now the Gyeonggi capital is almost completely destroyed, if the epidemic is allowed to spread to the Forbidden City, what face will he have to be this emperor! Thinking of this, he said in a cold voice: "All matters must be properly handled after the flood, and the epidemic must not spread to the capital!" Everyone was terrified, and even Yunxiang knelt on the ground together.

Yinzhen Yin Owl's gaze swept over a few people, and said in a deep voice: "First transfer grain from all over the country, and then count the grain stored in the imperial court, and the grain will be immediately from tomorrow." Herbs and the like are also indispensable, summer is the season of diseases, and all kinds of prevention and control herbs must arrive in the capital as soon as possible. As for those dead bodies, or those suspected of being ill," his voice dropped suddenly, and he said coldly: "All of them are burned, and not a single one is left!" ”

The crowd was astonished and shouted; Yun Xiang took the lead in saying: "This time there are heavy casualties, and most of the people in Gyeonggi are local tyrants and inferior gentry, they have dealings with dignitaries and dignitaries from all over the country, if the dead bodies and sick people are all burned, it will definitely cause opposition from the general trend, even if they are eight, they will also grasp this point and oppose the emperor!" Besides, public opinion is together, and it is around the capital, so I am afraid that it will lose the support of the people, and please think twice. ”

Huizhu had already cleared Yinzhen's wound and was about to put down her trouser legs, but suddenly felt a strong tension on Yinzhen's legs, and the blood that had just stopped was faintly coming out. Huizhu was extremely angry, hating Yinzhen for not paying attention to herself, but she understood what Yunxiang said. The ancients often said that the dead are great, if Yinzhen insists on burning the dead body, it is conceivable that he will be slandered by the people, I am afraid that at that time, it is not to lose the hearts of the people and stop working.

Thinking of this, Huizhu suddenly felt unfair, and her heart was uneven. Since Yinzhen ascended the throne, he has been conscientious in the court, not to mention how he is a husband, father, and brother, but as an emperor, he is undoubtedly admirable! However, how fair is it that he thinks about the homeless people with all his heart, but he wants to be forced to do so? But if you don't use this method to prevent the post-disaster epidemic, if you are not careful, the epidemic will spread to the capital......

Why are the flooded people in Gyeonggi? Huizhu asked herself silently.

When she was at a loss, a thought flashed in her mind, Huizhu suddenly raised her head, and saw Yinzhen with a calm face, her brows were deeply locked, and she couldn't bear it after all, she put down the cotton cloth in her hand, got up and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine has seen the handling of the flood in the books, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not." Yin Zhen squinted dangerously, and his gaze did not let go, until Huizhu's body couldn't help trembling slightly, and then he said indifferently: "Say it." ”

Huizhu reflexively stroked his chest, breathed a sigh of relief, avoided Yinzhen's line of sight, turned his back and said: "After the flood, the most important thing to prevent is the epidemic caused by rodents and mosquitoes and flies, in fact, the dead body is not so serious, it is not necessary to burn to death." Yinzhen's eyes flashed slightly, his face tensed, and he stared at Huizhu for a moment, and said, "Go on." Huizhu was a little hesitant, not knowing that vague memories were useful, but when she heard Yinzhen ask, she had to say honestly: "Gather all the dead bodies together, and then find the mountains that have not been flooded, dig the ground, six feet down, bury the corpses in it, and you will not suffer from the epidemic." ”

After speaking, when he turned around, he saw that everyone was suspicious, and said: "In fact, the epidemic after the flood, that is, rats, mosquitoes and flies are derived from dead corpses and animal corpses, and the evil disease is transmitted to people. As long as the corpse is buried in unflooded high ground, and rats and flies cannot touch it, it is not related to the dead body. After a pause, Fu met Yinzhen's gaze through the yarn, and said: "The concubine believes that vigorously killing mosquitoes and rodents is the key to preventing and controlling the epidemic. ”
