[Comprehensive Classics] I crossed with the Daping layer

The funeral of the Supreme Emperor will soon be over, and then the emperor will deal with the loyal and obedient prince who rebelled.Prince Zhongshun and Concubine Zhen Gui were relegated to common people, and those who followed Prince Zhongshun to rebel naturally would not end well.The capital city has been bloody and rainy during this time, and the land in the vegetable market has never been dry.

Qiao Qiao is in charge of the princess's mansion, so he is naturally very clear about the news from the outside.

"Girl, the Zhen family has been ransacked." Lin Butler quietly stood behind Qiao Qiao, watching her water the flowers and plants in the greenhouse.

"Father's revenge can be regarded as revenge." Qiao Qiao knew that Lin Ruhai's death was related to the Zhen family, and of course the culprit was the Supreme Emperor who had been buried in the imperial mausoleum.

"Miss, the old slaves have already bought back some of our Zhuangzi's land." When the Lin family handled the family property, many good things were taken away by Zhen with various means.

Back then, Lin Ruhai was in danger, and she had just come to this world.In order to be able to survive, they had to give up these things.But she knew that the Zhen family would collapse sooner or later, and Jiangnan would usher in a huge cleansing both in the officialdom and in the business world.So in the past few years, she asked Lin Butler to make some arrangements in Yangzhou.

She wants to get back what belongs to the Lin family, and so far it seems that everything is going well.

"Now that we live in the capital, it is definitely inconvenient to take care of the property in Jiangnan. You still need to take care of the management over there." The transportation in ancient times was not developed, and Jiangnan was thousands of miles away, so how can we live far away in a shocking way? The servants of the master's house are also knowledgeable. "Miss, don't worry, the old slave knows what to do."

Fortunately, Butler Lin is very experienced in such things.Lin Ruhai didn't immediately go to the south of the Yangtze River to become an official when he was in high school in the capital.

"Girl, it's not good. I heard from the vendor who delivered the vegetables today that there are signs of disease on the West Street of the capital." Qiao Qiao had just dismissed Butler Lin when Ruoyun rushed in.Sweat all over my face.

"Ah, plague?" Qiao Qiao couldn't react for a while.

"What's going on? What kind of disease?" Mother Liu asked immediately.

"Say it's smallpox." Ruoyun trembled, this smallpox is a fatal disease.

"Smallpox!" Nanny Liu turned pale with shock, it was an extremely serious disease.I also encountered it once in the capital back then, but it was very empty.

"But it's true, this smallpox is an extremely serious epidemic, and many people will die every time." Madam Du obviously knew the seriousness of the matter.This smallpox does not depend on whether you are noble or not, as long as you are infected, you will be close to death.

"The servant also listened to what the vegetable dealer said, and the vegetable dealer has some friendship with the servant, so I don't think he would lie to the servant."

"It's also strange, why there is no news from the imperial court, this smallpox is not something that can be concealed." Madam Du still couldn't figure it out.

"Unless someone deliberately concealed it." Qiao Qiao thought for a while: "The matter of Prince Zhongshun's rebellion in the capital has not completely calmed down until now. If the smallpox incident is reported again at this time... it is not right. If the emperor knows, it will be fine. I don't want to make things big, but some measures will still be taken. And he is not so stupid today, but it will not be good for him if it is revealed later. Could it be that the people of the loyal prince are out for revenge? But there is a poor area on the West Street. What...wait, because it is a slum area, it is more prone to unrest. And the population of the slum area is more mobile. It may not be easy to achieve a complete blockade."

"girl?"

"Mother Liu, does our family have a servant who has experienced smallpox?" There is too little information now, and we still need to send someone to West Street to check.

"There are two, and the old slave also survived smallpox."

"Okay, Mammy, let those two go to West Street to investigate. We need more information. If it's really the worst, I'm afraid we won't be able to stay out of it."

"The old slave knows."

"Girl, do you mean this epidemic is man-made?" Ruoyu quickly figured out what Qiao Qiao meant.

"I don't know, there is too little information. What we can do now is to find out whether it is true smallpox. If it is true, then we must be prepared for epidemic prevention. Be prepared, mammy, go buy some lime and spirits. From today At the same time, people are not allowed to enter and leave the mansion at will. They also need to buy some food back.”

"Yes, county lord."

Qiao Qiao knew that since a vegetable vendor knew about the disease, it would not be long before it broke out.That day, Qiao Qiao looked at the large amount of lime and spirits he had bought back, and began to ask his servants to scatter these limes to every corner of the mansion.The spirits were taken out and distilled to get alcohol.

Fortunately, she ordered a set of glass products before.Originally, I wanted to do some experiments, but now I just use it.

"Nurse, you must pay attention to the personal hygiene of the servants, and you must be more cautious about the things you enter. If there is something wrong, you must immediately isolate the people."

"Yes, county lord."

"Everyone has to work harder during this period. The clothes that have been changed and the dishes and chopsticks that have been eaten have to be boiled in boiling water for a cup of tea."

"Yes, county lord."

"There is also the need to stabilize everyone's emotions and tell them that they will be fine. This month's monthly payment will be doubled. But if someone dares to deceive the public, then don't blame the princess for being unreasonable."

"Yes, county lord."

"We can't let go of the news from outside. We need to know about any disturbances, and we need to strengthen the guards in the mansion. I think the emperor will definitely send out guards to maintain order, but we must also have our own regulations."

"Yes, county lord."

The development of the matter was as expected by Qiao Qiao. After learning that it was really smallpox, the news of the epidemic spread quickly.In an instant, the entire capital city entered a state of martial law.

Jia's mother-in-law invited her, but Qiao Qiao didn't plan to go to Jia's.There are so many servants in the princess' mansion and Lin's mansion, if she is not there, I don't know what will happen, and she has to shoulder the responsibility of being the master, instead of going to Jia's house for refuge whenever there is a situation.

But for Jia Mu's peace of mind, Qiao Qiao will send someone to report her safety every day.

Jojo tries his best to ensure the safety of himself and others through the knowledge he has learned and the common sense he has seen.

Royal Palace

"You bastard! Lu Danghe, what do you do, Jingzhao Mansion, you don't even know that there is a disease under the feet of the dignified emperor." Situ Mingrui wanted to tear this dry-cooked corpse into pieces.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty forgives my sins, my humble minister..."

"Come on, suppress it." Situ Mingrui no longer wanted to listen to his nonsense. Back then, both he and the Supreme Emperor had their own candidates for the position of Governor of Jingzhao Prefecture.It's just that neither side will let the other. In the end, in order to prevent both sides from being hurt, they can only launch a puppet.Lu Danghe is that puppet.

"Su Qing's family, come and tell me what's going on? Why didn't Feng Zixuan notice such an important matter?" Feng Zixuan was the person Situ Mingrui arranged in Jingzhao Mansion.

"Back to the emperor, Feng Zixuan tracked down the remnants of the rebellion half a month ago, and has chased him out of the capital." Su Jiliang replied respectfully.

"Tune the tiger away from the mountain?" Situ Mingrui narrowed his eyes.

"At this time, the Imperial Guard's defense against the capital is the highest, but no one thought that these people would be so frenzied. And they chose to attack on West Street, which is the place where the Imperial Guard's defense is the lowest."

Situ Mingrui himself did not expect the other party to be so frenzied: "How is the specific situation?"

"The Guards have blocked the West Street, but this is not a long-term solution." The usual way to deal with the plague is to trap all the sick people together, and if necessary, burn them all with a fire.Although it is cruel to do so, it is not uncommon for the court to use it for more people.

But this is the capital city, where the emperor is under the watchful eye. If you do this, the spittle of the world may drown the emperor.

"Your Majesty, the disease is dangerous. Your Majesty's dragon body is related to the people of the world. Please move him to another courtyard." A senior official of the clan suggested.

Immediately, several important ministers who were summoned to discuss matters in the imperial study all asked Situ Mingrui to leave the capital.

"Okay, now what I need to know is how to solve this plague. The homes of all my lovers are also in the capital. I don't want the capital to be empty, right?"

Situ Mingrui was discussing with the courtiers, and Empress Cao in the harem also began to arrange things. This time she was taught a lesson, fearing that someone would take the opportunity to attack her son.The Seventh Prince was directly arranged in Kunning Palace.

When she saw her son, she thought of Qiao Qiao, and hurriedly sent someone to Princess Anmin's Mansion, and the nun brought back a bunch of epidemic prevention measures for her.I heard that Princess Anmin's mansion is following this method.Empress Cao immediately called the imperial physician to ask whether these measures were effective.

After research, the imperial physicians said that some methods are good for them, but they don't know the principle of other methods.But no harm is certain.

Empress Cao wanted this sentence, as long as there was no harm, she was just talking about it anyway.Because I don't know if it will be useful, Empress Cao didn't mean to force others to use it, but just sent the method to each palace. It's up to them to decide whether to follow the above.

As time goes by, the disease in the capital spreads faster and faster.The imperial guards were a little unstable, and the imperial doctors tried many methods, but they couldn't stop the spread of smallpox.Many honorable ministers in the capital have already left.

Of course, the price of doing this is demotion and dismissal.After all, the emperor, who is the son of heaven, has not left the capital, and you, as courtiers, have abandoned the emperor out of greed for life and fear of death.

Situ Mingrui also held his breath and was unwilling to leave, he believed that he was destined by destiny.It is absolutely impossible for those ghosts and monsters to subvert his country.Therefore, Situ Mingrui didn't save any face for those honorable ministers who wanted to leave the capital because they were greedy for life and afraid of death.

Situ Mingrui's actions naturally made some people dissatisfied, but the Supreme Emperor has passed away, and although the Emperor's power is not to the point of being unambiguous, there is really no one who can resist it.Moreover, in a society where the ruler is the ruler and the subject is the leader, no one would feel that it was inappropriate for Situ Mingrui to do so.
