Su Muer looked at these imperial doctors who were over seventy years old and nodded slightly. She glanced at Ye Shihan, and after receiving his affirmative look, she continued:
"Most pulmonary tuberculosis starts slowly. As the disease progresses, the patient may develop symptoms such as cough, sputum, blood in the sputum, or hemoptysis. However, when the patient has such symptoms, it means that his disease has reached the open stage. This
It is most likely to infect others during this period. If you come into contact with someone during this period, you will be infected even if you touch a piece of his clothes."
Her words made these people confused. Seeing that no one said anything, Su Muer continued:
"So you need to do three things now. The first is to separate these severe cases and mild cases when you arrive at the places under your respective jurisdictions, and you must not let them come into contact with outsiders, and you must completely control them.
In the range."
She paused and continued:
"The second thing is to distinguish between people with severe, mild and no symptoms, and treat them according to different prescriptions. Treat those who are sick, and prevent those who are not sick."
"The third thing is, don't let strangers, especially unknown strangers, enter the area under your jurisdiction in a short period of time. Now that the virus has appeared across the country, it is really hard to guard against it, so we have to fight ten
With all my spirit, I will ask the emperor to issue a decree later, prohibiting people from other neighboring countries from entering the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and prohibiting people from the Eastern Jin Dynasty from leaving. If it is controlled well, I believe that we can completely control this virus within half a year.
live."
After hearing what she said, one of the Ministry of Household Officials looked at her with some confusion and asked:
"Half a year is a long time!"
Su Muer frowned and asked, "If the disease cannot be controlled, it will not take half a year. If we don't take measures, the entire Eastern Jin Kingdom may be paralyzed. However, there are viruses everywhere, and it is difficult for us to do so."
Guaranteed that some of us will survive? So half a year is a long time?"
Her words caused everyone present to fall into silence, and everyone frowned and pondered.
At this moment, Eunuch Liu, who was beside the emperor, came with an imperial edict in his hand. Before he arrived, a voice sounded,
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Hearing this, everyone except Ye Shihan and Su Muer knelt down one after another.
Ye Shihan and Su Muer were exempted from saluting in front of the emperor. This was a rule set by the emperor on the day he ascended the throne. They were also the only two people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who did not need to salute when they saw the emperor.
Eunuch Liu spread out the imperial edict, glanced at everyone, and then read:
"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict. Today, 12 officials from the Ministry of Revenue and 12 imperial doctors are going to the 12 provinces of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to take charge of the epidemic situation in each place. I specially confer the title of Seventh Princess Su Mu'er.
In order to overcome the plague this time, all officials must obey the princess's dispatch and arrangements. If they disobey, they will not be forgiven. I appreciate this!"
"I'm waiting for the order!"
After everyone knelt and kowtowed, Eunuch Liu respectfully handed the imperial edict to Su Muer, "Princess, please accept the edict."
Su Mu'er raised her hands to receive the imperial edict, bowed and saluted, "I accept the edict and thank the Emperor for his grace."
Eunuch Liu looked at her and Ye Shihan with a serious face, and sighed helplessly,
"The emperor is a little worried about this matter this time. He specially asked the old slave to tell you that if there is any need in the fight against the plague, the princess can just go to the Ministry of Household Affairs to get it. The emperor has already explained to the officials of the Ministry of Household, what the princess wants
, we must cooperate fully.”
Su Mu'er gave Ye Shihan a helpless look, then nodded, "Please, father-in-law, please go back and report back to the emperor. Thank you for your trust. I will do my best to eliminate this virus as soon as possible."
This is what Su Muer thought and did.
She allocated one thousand taels of silver to each of the twelve officials. In order for them to use it to appease the people after they went to various cities, those who were sick and those who might be sick were isolated separately. The expenses were borne by the court, and they were distributed to the people.
The cost of medicinal materials is also borne by the common people.
After arranging for these officials to go on their way, Su Muer and Ye Shihan returned to the palace exhausted, and Ziru hurriedly greeted them.
"Mom, Dad, why are you back here? There are guests at home. They are two beautiful sisters. They bought me a lot of good things."
Su Muer and Ye Shihan looked at each other, then frowned and looked at Ziru, "Which beautiful sister is she? Have you been to the house before?"
Ziru shook his head directly, "Ziru has never seen it, but they said they have hugged Ziru."
Have you ever held a child?
Su Muer and Ye Shihan said in unison:
"Xiaoqian and Princess Yongping?"
Thinking of this, Su Muer felt her head getting bigger, and Ye Shihan shook his head helplessly,
"According to time, they should have arrived."
"Yes! Let's go, they must be waiting for us too, let's go to the hall and have a look!"
After saying that, each of them took one of Ziru's hands and walked quickly towards the hall.
Both Xiaoqian and Princess Yongping seemed to have changed. Xiaoqian's face had lost its previous tenderness, and her face had become round and shiny. Her big eyes flashed from time to time, exuding a look that made people fall in love with her.
The spirit comes.
Princess Yongping is even more like a fairy walking out of a painting. Her smile is like spring breeze, her makeup is like catkins, her brows are lightly swept, no makeup is applied, and her light red cheeks reveal a bit of playfulness.
When the two of them saw Su Muer and Ye Shihan coming in, they hurriedly stood up and curtsied.
"Good luck to the prince, good luck to the princess."
Su Muer hurriedly waved her hand, "Get up, long time no see."
Princess Yongping took the lead and said:
"Yes, we haven't seen each other for about five years. I didn't expect that the princess's beauty is still the same, and the prince's vigor is still the same as before."
Who doesn't like to hear good words? Even if you know that the words are false and are compliments, they are still very comfortable to hear.
Qian'er timidly stepped forward and curtsied, "Princess, we haven't seen you for a few years. My sister-in-law asked me to say hello to the princess. She said she would come back this summer to visit her relatives."
Speaking of Qing'er, Su Muer felt her eyes heat up. She hadn't seen Qing'er for five or six years. If Liu Jin hadn't taken care of her, she would have missed her very much.
"Your sister-in-law is under the care of your brother, and I feel relieved. The plague is raging here in the Eastern Jin Kingdom. It might as well not come back for now. If you were not on the way here, I would advise you to go back."
Princess Yongping saw that she and Xiaoqian were chatting happily, so she hurriedly went over to talk to her.
"What happened to the Eastern Jin Kingdom? Is there a plague? Is it terrible? Are we in danger?"
Xiaoqian pursed her lips and glanced at her, then whispered:
"It's very dangerous, you'd better go back..."
Princess Yongping pinched her nose and glared at her, looking at her dissatisfied.
"Now that I'm here, I'm not afraid of danger. I have no intention of going back this time. We also brought my father's marriage notice together. Now the people from the Fuyang State Rites Department have gone to petition the emperor, so I'm here
I even brought my own betrothal gift this time.”
Hearing this, Xiaoqian frowned slightly, "Going for business is not a business. Besides, Doudou likes me, so it doesn't matter how much dowry you bring."
"How old is Su Liyang, and you still call me by your nickname? I really don't understand him. He will be unhappy after hearing this. Besides, after so many years, he may not like you anymore."
After saying this, she lowered her head and glanced at herself with a confident face.
Xiaoqian pursed her lips and lowered her head in displeasure. Seeing this, Su Muer hurriedly stretched out her hand to signal,
"You two haven't been here for several years. Sit down quickly. Liu, let the kitchen cook more dishes for lunch. We have guests at home."
Upon seeing this, Princess Yongping waved her hand directly,
"Princess, you don't have to be polite. Just treat me as one of your own family members when I come here. By the way, I put my things in the west wing. Is it suitable for me to live there?"
Su Muer glanced at Ye Shihan helplessly, and then said:
"Isn't this inappropriate? Regardless of whether the emperor grants marriage in the end, it's not appropriate for you to live in now. Why don't you first live in the post house specially arranged by the royal family for envoys from various countries?"
"How can that be done?" Princess Yongping's face was full of displeasure. "The princess just said that the Eastern Jin Kingdom is now full of plague. If I live in a post house now, what if I get infected with the virus? Or in the palace.
Safety."
Her words made Su Muer speechless. What she said made some sense. Now the Eastern Jin Kingdom really doesn’t know where the plague will appear. Now the Changping Kingdom is enough to keep the Eastern Jin Kingdom busy. If she is offended by Princess Yongping again,
Fuyang Country, that is really a tricky thing.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Ye Shihan, but Ye Shihan looked back at her with helplessness on his face.
"In this case, Princess Yongping will stay in the palace for the time being. However, there are many people in the palace and the children are quite naughty. If you bump into the princess somewhere, don't take it personally."
Princess Yongping grinned and waved her hands,
"Don't worry, Princess. Ziru is very cute. I like to play with him. Starting tomorrow, the task of taking care of Ziru will be left to me."
Xiaoqian looked away displeasedly,
"Ziru obviously doesn't like you, why do you tell lies?"
Princess Yongping turned back and glared at Xiaoqian, "How do you know he doesn't like me? He likes the good things I brought him. If you don't believe me, go and ask him."
"The things you carry are not as good as mine at all. Besides, Ziru has always been mentioned in the letters between Doudou and I. He has long known about me, Sister Xiaoqian, so he and I are particularly close."
Seeing the two people starting to quarrel over the child, Su Muer shook her head helplessly.
"You guys should go back to your room and rest for a while. I have something to deal with."
Now the raging plague in the Eastern Jin Dynasty has made her worried, and the arrival of two more chattering women is really annoying.
But this is really something that people have no choice about. Who told them to belong to two countries respectively.
Princess Yongping shook her head reluctantly,
"No, I have to wait here for Su Liyang to come back. I haven't seen him in five years, and I don't know what he looks like anymore."
Xiaoqian glared at her contemptuously, raised her head and said proudly:
"You will naturally meet me when you get back. I'm tired, so I'm going back to my room first."
After leaving these words, she waved the handkerchief in her hand, bowed to Su Muer and Ye Shihan, turned around and left.
Looking at her back, Princess Yongping glared fiercely, and then sat back on the chair. It seemed that she really wanted to wait here for Doudou to come back.
Naturally, Su Mu'er couldn't stop her from doing what she did, and she still had things to do, so she and Ye Shihan walked out of the hall together.
More and more people are suffering from the plague in the capital, and Liu Hai comes with a face full of resentment.
Judging from his expression, Su Muer had probably guessed it.
She looked at her bangs and asked:
"Is there bad news?"
Liu Hai nodded helplessly, "Yes, there are now a total of 43 severe patients and 245 mild patients in the capital, but there are no deaths, and this number is on the rise. What should we do? How to control it?
I am really worried, and the number of patients is not only on the rise in the capital, but also in other places. If this continues, the Eastern Jin Kingdom will be in danger."
The more she listened to Liu Hai's words, the more nervous Su Muer became. What she was most worried about had happened. Although the prescription she prescribed was effective, it was only for prevention of people who were not yet sick. As for those who were seriously ill, this prescription was effective.
Very slowly, if the patient is in a bad mood, it will make the condition worse.
It seems that she needs to develop new medicines.
She frowned and nodded,
"Well, I understand. Give me some time and I will come up with a new prescription. Now you ask people in Shuntian Mansion to collect medicinal materials from various places. As long as they are medicinal, we need all kinds of medicinal materials."
Liu Hai nodded, "I understand, I'll do it now."
After saying that, Liu Hai quickly turned around and walked out the door.
At this moment, Ye Shihan hurried back. He came directly to the chair opposite her and sat down. He grabbed the teacup and took a sip of water.
"Mu'er, something happened."
These words made Su Muer's heart tremble. She frowned and looked at him and asked doubtfully:
"What happened?"
"There is something going on over there in the Changping Kingdom. Someone from the front came to report just now. They have started training aggressively in the past few days. It seems that there is a possibility of marching into the Eastern Jin Kingdom at any time."
Su Mu'er's heart tightened. Now this damn tuberculosis has made her angry. If the people from Changping Kingdom take the opportunity to attack again, it will be a disaster.
She pondered for a while, then shook her head,
"I don't think the people from Changping will invade in the short term, at least within half a year. They must be waiting for the opportunity now. They must be waiting for this plague to completely defeat the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and then take the opportunity to invade.
So I think they are just training new recruits now."
Her words made Ye Shihan silent for a long time, and then he nodded slightly,
"What you said makes sense. It seems I was too impatient."
"How could I not be anxious? I thought we could finally live a peaceful life for a few days, but I didn't expect so many things to happen suddenly. This is really unpredictable."
Seeing that her face was not pretty, Ye Shihan reached across the table and took her hand, looking at her affectionately,
"Mu'er, I'm sorry. I originally thought about letting you live a good life with me for a few days, but I didn't expect that all these burdens would fall on you in the end. There were many times when I was thinking that if I could share the burden for you, I would definitely not
It will make you so tired, but I really can’t help you at all regarding the plague, so I am very anxious and feel sorry for you."
Su Muer pursed her lips and looked at him, raised her hand and patted his hand, saying softly:
"No one wants to see something like this happen, but now that it has happened, what can we do? We can only try our best to solve it now. In the past few days, I have figured out a new prescription. First, in the capital
It can be applied to severely ill patients, and if it is effective, it can be distributed to various places."
"Mu'er, you're too tired and too busy during this period. We haven't sat together and chatted for a long time. Can we not mention these annoying things today? Let's have a good chat or go and spend some time with you.
Accompanying the children?"
His words made Su Muer's heart sink. She remembered that she hadn't seen Ziru for three days. Fortunately, the child was obedient and had been focusing on learning to write with her husband. But thinking about it, she still felt sorry for him.
So he whispered:
"Okay, let's go spend some time with Zi Ru. I don't know how he's been practicing the word lately."
Speaking of Ziru, she suddenly asked:
"Are you coming back Doudou?"
Ye Shihan nodded, "He's back. As soon as he entered the gate of the palace, he was called to the west wing by Yongping and Xiaoqian. He must also have a headache at this time."
Mentioning these things, Ye Shihan's eyes were full of helplessness. What he experienced back then was now being experienced by Doudou. He understood Doudou's mood at this time, so he also understood Doudou.
Caught between two women, and no one can be offended, everyone will have a headache.
At this time, Doudou was sitting in the hall of the west wing. He looked up at Xiaoqian on the left, and then at Princess Yongping on the right, feeling happy but helpless at the same time.
He was happy that he finally met Xiao Fu, who had been thinking about him day and night, but he was worried that Princess Yongping was also here.
Moreover, these two women also want to be his legal wives, what should he do?
Princess Yongping narrowed her eyes at him. She never thought that in five years, Doudou would become a handsome man like the Seventh Prince. Not only was he extraordinary in bearing, but he was also very heroic. She wished she could get married to him now and take him with her.
Enter the bridal chamber so that no one will compete with her.
But Xiaoqian's sharp and smart eyes were also looking at Doudou. There was a faint smile on her lips. When she looked at Doudou, her eyes were full of love.
Doudou saw her looking at him, and his face turned red.
"Xiaoqian..."
Before he could speak, Princess Yongping interrupted directly, "Su Liyang, I haven't seen you for a few years, you have changed."
Doudou turned his head to look at her, frowned and said:
"Of course I will change, people will always change, just like you, you have become whiter and more beautiful, like a hibiscus."
His two words of praise instantly made Princess Yongping's face light up with joy. She squinted at him and drew a perfect arc from the corner of her mouth.
Xiaoqian muttered unhappily at the side,
"I came all the way here for you, and you haven't even said a complete sentence to me, but now you are carefully observing their appearance. In this case, I won't disturb you anymore."
After saying this, she turned around and said to the girl beside her:
"Cui Zhu, help me back to my room."
When Doudou saw this, he quickly spoke to stop him.
"Xiaoqian, are you tired? I still have a lot to say to you."
Xiaoqian glared at him and Princess Yongping displeasedly, and then said coldly:
