The Concubine of the Red Chamber is a little flower essence

The queen understands and sympathizes, but she is not fooled.

But the queen is very busy now.

His Majesty is not the only one staring at the prescription to cure the plague.

The queen also summoned the edicts to discuss the treatment plan.

After all, she is the concubine of the fourth prince.

The queen personally sent her out: "Sister Defei, your natal family has also been to the border.

The father-in-law of the fourth child works in Yungui.

There are many precious herbs in Yunnan Guizhou's [-] mountains.

It is said that many folk sages gather there, my sister might as well ask the fourth family if they recognize the Xinglin sages? "

Hearing this, Concubine De hurriedly shed her tears: "What the empress is thinking about is that the concubine was in a hurry and forgot about the important affairs of the court, and I hope the empress will forgive her."

The queen said: "It's too serious, let's go back, even if we can't share His Majesty's worries, we can't cause His Majesty trouble at this time."

Concubine De's back teeth were almost crushed, but she was about to smile.

Xiao Huajing was ordered to leave the palace again this day, but she returned home to deliver the decree.

Before that, the Rongning Second Mansion had been busy making the [-] sets of cotton clothes, trousers and quilts.

Therefore, the empress did not disturb the Rong family.

Now the cotton clothes and trousers have been successfully completed and handed over to the Ministry of Accounts.

Only then did the queen summon Mrs. Rong and Mrs. Shizi into the palace.

During this period, Xiao Huajing had a simple conversation with her grandfather.

Rong Mansion has been actively responding to the call of Shuntian Mansion, donating money and goods.

However, there has been no good news from the Huimin Administration.

Jia Daishan has a lot of prescriptions in his hands, all of which he obtained when he was marching and fighting abroad.

Most of the prescriptions have been recorded by imperial physicians.

A few folk remedies, but I don't know if they are effective.

Jia Daishan learned that the queen cared about the Huimin Department, and introduced the treatment and effects of the Huimin Department in detail.

Currently in the groping stage, the Huimin Department mainly uses Chen Aicorus, Prunella vulgaris, mulberry leaves and tangerine peel to boil water for drinking.

The method of disinfection is poplar water.

There are also people who copied the Diamond Sutra, burned it and swallowed it, in short, there are all kinds of things.

Jia Daishan has a pill in his hand, and he tried it in the army, but he dared not give it rashly.

One is fear of ineffectiveness.

Furthermore, the prescription contains valuable medicines such as bezoar, musk, pearl, cinnabar, realgar, berberine, and skullcap.

Great value.

Even if the treatment effect is very good, the imperial court may not be willing to use it.

At the beginning, Jia Daishan led troops into Yunnan and Guizhou to put down the rebellious Chieftain Annan coalition forces.

The soldiers did not adapt to the climate of Yunnan and Guizhou and suffered from the plague.

The military pay of the imperial court is a drop in the bucket.

Jia Daishan had to take extraordinary measures at that time.

Except that Rongfu paid its own money to purchase herbal medicines for emergency.

For the insufficient part, iron and blood suppressed some local tyrants and evil gentry who were hoarding strange things.Confiscated many drug dealers who were unwilling to donate, and wooed some drug dealers.

It was only then that the herbs were gathered and the army was saved.

These means are obviously not suitable for the situation in Kyoto.

Now it is not only Hu Guang's refugees, but also refugees from Jiangnan who have entered Beijing.

This requires a large amount of medicinal materials.

However, if we don't try to contain it, I'm afraid that the plague will spread into the palace.

Xiao Huajing understood the situation of the disaster and was very anxious: "Grandfather, you have been to many places, and your knowledge must be extraordinary. Could it be that you can't think of an effective way to contain it?"

Jia Daishan talked about his original methods: "Water and fire are ruthless, there are still places to escape, and the plague spreads, making it impossible for people to escape.

The method adopted by the army at the beginning was to send those sick soldiers to the deep mountains and old forests for isolation to prevent them from infecting more soldiers.

Of course, isolation is not abandonment.

I will personally build huts for them and deliver food and soup.

Whether they can recover or not depends entirely on their own good fortune.

However, the grandfather will give awards and pensions to these soldiers who died of the epidemic.

The imperial court can't arrange them, they are all arranged in our own farms to ensure the minimum living. "

Jia Daishan had reservations, and some soldiers committed suicide after breaking down.

Xiao Huajing's blood boiled with enthusiasm: "Is this the magic weapon of grandfather's invincibility?"

Jia Daishan smiled: "Children can be taught.

Leading troops to fight is not only to lead the way, but also to share joys and sorrows.

A general does not love soldiers, and sooner or later the army will fall apart and become scattered sand. "

At this time, Xiao Huajing put on an isolated aura: "Your Majesty does not sleep for three days and three nights, and the reason for urging the Tai Hospital is the same as yours, right?"

Jia Daishan nodded: "Emperor Jiahe can be regarded as a virtuous character in dealing with government affairs and the national economy and people's livelihood."

It's hard to say a word about his wife, children and courtiers.

Don't say it's a faint king, it can also be said that it's heartless and ungrateful.

Xiao Huajing smiled and said: "What do you mean, Emperor Jiahe is good at governing the country and calming the people, but he is just mean and ungrateful?"

Jia Daishan smiled and stared: "Don't tell the truth."

Only then did Xiao Huajing put away the spirit mask, and said loudly: "Now His Majesty has received hundreds of prescriptions, and there are not many prescriptions for you. You can just present it, and His Majesty will decide whether to use it or not."

Jia Daishan nodded: "Yuan'er has to take care of himself in the palace, don't contact outsiders, so as not to be infected by the epidemic."

Xiao Huajing got up and said goodbye: "You go to the city gate to check, and you must also take precautions to avoid contracting the epidemic."

He whispered again: "Add some water from the lotus lake to the decoction of the alms, save one more is one."

Jia Daishan said: "I have already added more, so I don't dare to add too much, for fear of backfire."

This is very true, many people have no roots.

Too much is a bad thing.

The conversation between Xiao Huajing and her grandfather soon reached the ears of Emperor Jiahe.

Jia Mu offered two prescriptions here.

One is suitable for the treatment of the early stage of the plague, and the other is used for pulling out the root of the disease in the later stage.

Musk must be used for both, and later recovery is more expensive.

Mother Jia told the Queen that the Rong Mansion had a decoction and medicine shed at the gate of the city, and it was this kind of prescription that was used.

It's just that people who drink it every day are different, and they don't know the effect.

Anyway, there are refugees queuing up in long lines every day to receive the decoction.

Jiahe Emperor and the Imperial Hospital decided to use ten sets of medical prescriptions after research.

Take the ten selected prescriptions to Zhili and use them in different villages.

Then, compare which prescription is the most effective, and then focus on treatment.

Three days later, Emperor Jiahe, who had been sitting in the Golden Luan Hall for six consecutive days without going to court, finally received the news from the imperial hospital: out of ten prescriptions, three of them had the best effect.

They asked for instructions whether to continue to study the three prescriptions and combine them into one, or to use all three prescriptions directly.

Emperor Jiahe said: "The three prescriptions were sent to Huguang at the same time, and they were used in isolated villages.

Then, choose the one with the best effect and promote it. "

Here, Jinyiwei rushed to send a letter to Huguang in eight hundred miles, and the three prescriptions also began to be promoted in Zhili.

The first snow fell in winter, and the disaster victims outside the city have already moved into the Huimin Bureau that has been built.

Although the victims wore all kinds of tattered clothes, they were finally settled down.

In the middle of the winter month, officials from Huguang Zhili all reported to Beijing, and the epidemic was basically under control.

Emperor Jiahe was in a good mood.

This year, due to the epidemic, the imperial court had neither autumn hunting nor winter hunting.

On the day of Laba, Emperor Jiahe presented Laba porridge to all the meritorious merchants who participated in the disaster relief donation.

At the same time, Emperor Jiahe also presented plaques to merchants who donated.

This is a golden sign.

The once low-key Kyoto, after Emperor Jiahe presented the Laba porridge, just now has a little taste of the New Year.

However, no one expected that at the moment when Emperor Jiahe was happily writing a banner to prepare for the new year, Huang Qingsi, the director of the imperial hospital, together with Jing Zhaoyin and the governor of Zhili, entered the palace together.

They kowtowed like they were mourning their wives, saying, "Your Majesty is not well."

Dai Quan scolded: "Masters, be careful, our Majesty will last forever, so it's okay."

Emperor Jiahe also felt that they were inappropriate.

He had just been at ease for a few days: "What happened to make you so panic-stricken?"

The governor of Zhili kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty is wise, please forgive me for being rude, the situation is really urgent.

Just in the early hours of this morning, Doctor Huang has confirmed the diagnosis. There have been more than a dozen cases of smallpox in the Zhili area. There are more refugees outside the city, and more than [-] people have developed acne..."

Emperor Jiahe was furious, and swept the things on the dragon table to the ground: "What are you doing? You shouted every day that the epidemic has been brought under control, and the number of sick people has dropped sharply.

Where did these smallpox cases come from? "

A box of cinnabar was thrown on Huang Qingsi's head, his forehead was stained red, but he didn't dare to raise his head: "My minister is guilty, because most people get better after taking the decoction.

The symptoms of these feverish people were relieved at that time, and there were only a few rashes on their bodies.

The guilty minister was ignorant of talent and learning, and felt that it was winter and there should be no smallpox.

Therefore, I thought it was caused by the bad living environment and mosquito bites..."

Emperor Jiahe was furious: "Fart, where do mosquito bites come from in winter?"

Doctor Huang said: "Forgive me, Your Majesty, this is an illness in October, my humble minister, my humble minister..."

Emperor Jiahe was furious again: "What happened in October, dragged on until now?

There is more than enough to die!

Come here..."

This is the rhythm of killing people.

Everyone in the main hall of the Hall of Mental Cultivation was so frightened that their legs limp and collapsed on the ground.

When the news reached Kunning Palace, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.

A plague, Huguang Zhili has killed and injured tens of thousands of victims, mass graves buried thousands of refugees indiscriminately.

This is the result of the timely rescue by Huimin Department.

Now there is smallpox again.

Historically, smallpox spread, ten out of ten.

The queen's body trembled, her lips trembled: "Retribution... Retribution..."

The queen couldn't help but think of the scene when the crown princess fell into a pillar and died that day.

That day was Zhengdan Day.

The prince was ordered to go to prison, and the princess was imprisoned in the prince's mansion to wait for processing.

In the afternoon of Zhengdan Day, Jin Yiwei came to arrest people, and the crown princess arranged two pregnant maids into the palace maids of the clothing distribution bureau.

The princess got in touch with the prince's old department and asked them to try to get people out.

As a result, it was reported.

The princess was taken to the Qianqing Palace.

At that time, the queen heard the news, regardless of life and death, rushed into the Hall of Mental Cultivation to intercede.

The crown princess pushed the queen who was kneeling on the ground to her back.

Her eyes were poisoned, and she spat on the Queen's face: "There is no need for you to be hypocritical."

The Crown Princess has pleaded not guilty.

Emperor Jiahe ordered the Prince's Mansion to be imprisoned up and down.

When the princess heard the news, she suddenly raised her head to the sky and howled:

God, you are blind!

Today, I sacrifice my life to heaven.

If you had eyes, you would send disasters and kill these unfaithful and unfilial people...

After saying that, she bumped her head to death on His Majesty's dragon case.

The blood stained the dragon case, and also the gold bricks.

Apart from His Majesty, only the Queen knows about this matter.

From then on, Emperor Jiahe moved to live in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

No longer resting in the Qianqing Palace.

Because of the tragic death of the crown princess, the crown prince never used torture, and the whole family was imprisoned in the clan mansion.

Xiao Huajing noticed that the queen seemed to be in a daze, so she hurriedly stepped forward to help her, and put her palm on the queen's brow Niwan Palace: "Your Majesty, are you uncomfortable?"

Xiaohuajing winked at the queen while using the mind-purifying technique.

The secret agents of the General Administration Department are everywhere. In order to confuse the public, Xiao Huajing said loudly: "Who do you want to bring here, the nineteenth prince?"

Under the effect of Xiaohuajing's mind-cleaning technique, the queen regained consciousness.

She made Xiao Huajing wink as if her eyes were cramping, and nodded along: "Go and see Ying'er, and tell Concubine Shu to take good care of Ying'er, and from today on, no outsiders are allowed to enter Yikun Palace."

Only then did Xiao Huajing feel relieved: "Your Majesty, do you want to pass the news to the empresses of the palaces, so that the empresses will not summon their natal family recently, nor send maids out of the palace?"

The queen is very wise: "Order Fu Shanggong to spread the epidemic to the East and West Zodiac. Let them pay attention to precautions and suspend the meeting before the year."

Years ago, it was the time when the imperial concubine entered the palace to pay his respects and the concubines kissed each other.

Some of the empress's family members all came from other places.

An inadvertent mistake may bring a serious disease into the palace.

Fu Shanggong led away, his voice trembling.

Since ancient times, people have been powerless against smallpox.

The only way is to resign to fate.

Anyone who puts it on will be afraid.

The queen said again at this time: "Yuan'er, you go and tell Shisan yourself, from now on, no matter who enters the palace, they will all be called back.

Furthermore, let him inform the princes and concubines of the prince's mansion that the epidemic has been serious recently, so that they don't have to go to the palace to pay their respects, keep the door and take care of their children. "

Xiao Huajing went to Donghua Gate and found the thirteenth prince who was sitting in the gate.

The thirteenth prince frowned: "The prince's concubine and concubine also want to fight back? Is this the order of the father, or is it?"

Xiao Huajing nodded: "Your Majesty is discussing the prescription with the imperial physician, and I can't care about other things at the moment. This is the empress's oral order, for the safety of the palace, and also for the safety of the prince's mansion.

There may be patients on the street, Master Thirteen, hurry up and spread the word.

The Queen Mother said, you must take care of the emperors and grandchildren, and don't go out to meet each other. "

Whether it is a prince or a princess, once they suffer from acne, they will be secretly sent out of Beijing to go to the palace to avoid acne.

Smallpox patients, narrowly escaped death.

Survivors will also be disfigured.

Children leave their parents and are but resigned to their fate.

The thirteenth prince's expression became serious, he cupped his hands and said, "Please Jia Siyan to report back to the queen mother, the sons and ministers would like to obey the mother's order."

When Emperor Jiahe learned of the queen's arrangement, he affirmed it.

He immediately issued an order to stop all celebrations in the palace, including the audience of local officials, including New Year's Eve celebrations.

However, Emperor Jiahe's reaction was still a few beats slower.

The eldest prince's side concubine, as well as the little emperor's grandson, were unfortunately infected with smallpox.

For the safety of the imperial city, the mother and son, together with the nanny and maid, were all detained and sent out of the imperial city.

It was originally planned to be sent to Nanyuan, which is relatively close to Kyoto, which is convenient for the preparation of medicinal materials.

The eldest prince and concubine cried at the gate of Qianqing, saying that the absence of the eldest prince and the coldness in Nanyuan was not conducive to recuperation, and she hoped that the child could be kept at her grandmother's house in the outer city to recuperate.

Otherwise, she will not be able to explain the eldest prince's return to Beijing.

In fact, these words also implicated Emperor Jiahe.

The eldest prince was out for disaster relief, his wife and children were sick, but he was expelled by his father.

Emperor Jiahe said: "For the sake of the safety of the imperial city, no matter whether the prince or the common people, once contracted a serious disease, they must be detained out of the city to ensure the safety of the imperial city.

I am the Son of Heaven, and there is no exception.

You are right, although Nanyuan is closer to Kyoto, it is really not suitable for winter.

So, you go to Tangquan Palace. "

Tangquan is the favorite palace of Emperor Jiahe, and it is usually there in winter.

This year is special, so I didn't go there.

That's all for the First Princess.

She has worked hard, but if His Majesty does not allow, she can explain to the First Prince.

However, misfortunes never come singly.

The one-year-old second son of the third prince's family also unfortunately contracted smallpox.

The third concubine, and the eldest daughter of the third prince, the nine-year-old Princess Shuiqing, also contracted smallpox because of close contact with the little emperor's grandson.

The third concubine, mother and son were personally escorted by the third prince to Tangquan Palace.

The third prince also stayed in the palace because he had contact with his wife and children.

Emperor Jiahe ordered him to take care of the palace.

That is to say, in the future, if there are any patients sent in the imperial city, the third prince will also be responsible.

Then, the little grandson of Prince Yu's family also got infected.

Prince Yu was in tears, and entered the palace to ask Emperor Jiahe if he could keep the child in the outer city.

They ensured isolation and treatment so that they would not infect others.

Emperor Jiahe sent the imperial physician to the outpatient clinic, but he did not agree to keep the child.

Moreover, Jin Yiwei quickly came to the door and detained all the people who had come into contact with Xiao Wangsun out of the city.

Prince Yu's Mansion, like the Third Prince's Mansion and the First Prince's Mansion, was closed.

Sad news came one after another, and the whole palace was plunged into fear.

Many empresses consciously live behind closed doors.

But some people were restless, saying that the third concubine had entered the palace to see Concubine Zhou before closing the palace.

The noble concubine, the concubine, the concubine, the concubine, and the concubine Zhen went to Kunning Palace together to put pressure on the empress.

He asked Concubine Zhou to be sent to the palace to avoid acne, so as not to spread the disease.

Palace to avoid acne?

This is to make Concubine Zhou infected.

The queen looked at them, but the princess's curse sounded in her ears: bring disaster...

The empress ordered tea to be served, and waited for everyone to drink the tea.

She suddenly smiled: "That day the third concubine also kowtowed to me, so should I also avoid acne?

You have come to Kunning Palace today, shouldn't you also leave the palace? "

Upon hearing this, Concubine Zhen and the others stood up together and retreated a foot.

The queen smiled again: "I've had tea, it's too late to back off."

The queen is not defending the concubine Zhou, but she can't bear to see them being overthrown by everyone.

This picture reminded her of the princess and her own difficult days.

However, Xiao Huajing knew that the empress would never contract smallpox.

These days, inside and outside Kunning Palace, Yangxin Palace, Qianqing Palace, Yikun Palace, and the six bureaus and one division, Xiaohuajing was disinfected with spiritual water.

Produced by the Sixth Bureau, everything the girls eat, drink, and use has been disinfected.

Unless someone deliberately poisons, there will be no virus in the palace.

However, Xiao Huajing underestimated the ugliness of the human heart.

Zhengdan day.

The Yikun Palace that Xiao Huajing guarded strictly, unexpectedly went wrong.

Shuiying and her nanny had a fever at the same time.

Shui Ying is more serious, and rashes appear on the body.

After hearing the imperial physician's diagnosis, Ma Shangxiang threw his head up and collapsed.
