After becoming the king of the subjugated country

The sun was just right, Ji Chen leaned on the recliner, and glanced at the memorial again. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't sort out Xia Guo's movements from a long distance with just these words, so he simply put it aside.

The sky is big and the earth is big, if Xia Guo insists on sending doctors and medicine, he doesn't have to stop him.

Anyway, it can also be used as a reference for You Han, no matter how they count, they are not at a loss.

Clearing up the interests, Ji Chen didn't think it was a big deal to eat melons. He didn't think about replying to Xia Guo's memorial at all. He threw the memorial in the corner, closed his eyes and covered it with a blanket, and started his lunch break.

In the end, after a short break, Ji Chen was called up again. This time, Ning Yuan, the chief assistant of the cabinet, came over in person.

He came over worriedly with another memorial, "Your Majesty, Xia Guo urgently reported that he sent [-] witch doctors and ten carts of medicinal materials directly to help our country. The two countries must work together to develop the prescription as soon as possible." Come."

Ji Chen had just woken up, still a little dazed, waited for Ning Yuan to repeat it again, before he cleared his mind.

With his slender fingers lightly touching the memorial, Ji Chen finally got serious and asked Ning Yuan, "Did you really send someone here?"

Ning Yuan nodded worriedly, "Indeed, Antai County near the border has already received people, and now we are resolutely escorting them to the vicinity of He'an County."

The sheriff of Antai County was full of bitterness. He used to guard the border on a daily basis and sent people to guard the city gate. As a result, he found a group of strangely dressed people near the gate. Lu led the review, but these people did not hesitate to admit that they were from the Xia Kingdom, and requested to enter the territory of the Yue Kingdom, saying that they were here to help the Yue Kingdom solve the plague.

Sheriff of Antai County: "..."

When he first received the news, he took a sip of tea and choked it down his throat.

No matter how dirty the two countries were in the past, at least now they have signed an armistice treaty, and they recognize each other as a country of brothers, and neighboring countries extend a helping hand. There were only more than twenty people, and there was really no one else. It can be said that their performance this time was extremely peaceful, and they were full of sincerity.

The sheriff of Antai County could neither refuse nor accept, so he sent someone to escort them and sent a letter to Kyoto in a hurry to explain the matter.

Of course, Ning Yuan said that the governor of Antai County is willing to take the blame, as long as there is any change in them, they will kill people on the road, and once Xia Guo pursues it, he will bear the responsibility.

"Let's say they are not acclimatized, or they were robbed by roadblocks." Ning Yuan also agreed with this idea.

Ji Chen: "..."

Despite Ning Yuan's anticipation, Ji Chen ruthlessly rejected the request, and asked Ning Yuan to inform the escorting army to send them over, hand them over to Bai Qi, and try their best to maximize their value.

Ji Chen raised his eyebrows, "Is there any more?"

Ning Yuan said embarrassingly: "There are five envoys who have been on the road day and night. They are sent by Xia Guo. It is said that they are the important ministers of the emperor. They are specially sent as envoys to ask His Majesty for advice."

Ji Chen's eyes lit up, and he became interested, "Is there something wrong?"

Ning Yuan nodded, he thought so.

Facts proved that both Ji Chen and Ning Yuan were overthinking.

These five envoys came to the capital through mountains and rivers. On the first day of the court meeting, they came to persuade Ji Chen that they must be close to gentlemen and far away from villains.

The envoy headed by the leader was eloquent, and he would show his shamelessness to the end, "The ministers and others passed through the flooded area, and saw that the surroundings were well managed and the people settled down. Those ministers worked so hard for the floods and plagues in your Majesty's territory, so they must be rewarded more, especially those who This Lord Bai Qi has performed perfectly, and he is worthy of being His Majesty's future pillow."

Xing Yi's face was ugly, and the faces of a series of courtiers who thought they were decent were not much better. What this man said seemed to be quite right, but no matter how he heard the last sentence, it was wrong!

An old minister took the lead to stand up, "Your Majesty, you have been quite generous to these ministers who have gone out. Now the court is busy up and down, and many ministers are loyal to their duties even if they are not sent abroad. Therefore-- "

The envoy of the State of Xia hurriedly said: "As the so-called flood is urgent, these people have to experience more pressure outside. It is better to give them more food and clothing, and then send food, grass and medicinal materials to He'an County and other places to appease the local people."

Quarrels belonged to quarrels, and defenses belonged to precautions. The envoys of the Xia Kingdom quickly reached an agreement with the officials of the Yue Kingdom to lay out a framework for the arrangement of He'an County and surrounding counties and counties, and make up for the gaps in each other.

Ji Chen accepts advice from the good, and responds with a smile. The minister next to him thinks that the Xia people are too enthusiastic, and only feels it is fraudulent. However, these suggestions are very practical, and it seems unnecessary to discard them.

After the court, Ji Chen hadn't rested for a quarter of an hour, when the envoy of Xia Guo came again.

The five envoys stood in a row and saluted Ji Chen, their manners were extremely appropriate, Eunuch Xin watched them intently, and stood beside Ji Chen with his two young eunuchs who knew martial arts, lest there was anything unusual about them.

In the end, under Eunuch Xin's angry glaring, the five envoys did not change their expressions, "I have three pieces of advice, one piece is to persuade Your Majesty to be diligent..."

Ji Chen swallowed a mouthful of snacks, quickly used another piece, held the teacup, took a sip, and then rested his chin to look at them with interest.

"Secondly, I advise Your Majesty to love the people like a child, so that the country can be kept safe; thirdly, I advise Your Majesty to take precautions before the plague spreads, and use all your strength to treat it. Now, with the strength of our two countries, we will surely be able to quickly develop a prescription..."

The historian who recorded the emperor's daily life next to him was writing hard, his eyes were bright, and he felt that people could see everything after living for a long time. For example, now he saw the friendly exchanges between the Xia Kingdom and the Yue Kingdom.

The more Eunuch Xin listened, the more confused he became. Why do these envoys of the Xia Kingdom care more about His Majesty's country than the officials of the Yue Kingdom? !

Did the emperor of the Xia Kingdom love the people like a son?Bah, bah, bah, the people of Yue country, it's not their turn to love the emperor of Xia country!

"Emperor Xia is dead." Ji Chen put down his teacup, said a few words casually, and saw the changes in the eyes of the envoys below, panic, fear, and anger that almost spewed fire, and changed his words: "I'm not dead." , still alive, still alive."

The expressions of the envoys below suddenly changed. Ji Chen carefully recalled what they said, looked at their expressions, and pondered again: "You must be infected with the plague."

"It seems that Xia Guo's palace is in chaos?"

"It seems to be both serious and not serious. It's no problem to suppress it for half a month, but you want Yue to provide a prescription to cure this plague."

The historian who was so excited finally stopped writing, swallowed hard, and finally realized the danger of people's hearts again.

The faces of the five envoys were extremely ugly, but Ji Chen said unhurriedly, "Everyone, since you are here, why don't you help me a little bit, anyway, you also want this plague to end quickly, don't you?"

They stalemate for a long time, after about a cup of tea, the two sides finally reached an agreement. When the five envoys left the study, their steps were fast, as if there were evil spirits chasing after them.

After all the envoys of the Xia Kingdom had left, Ji Chen picked up the teacup again, stroked the rim, and occasionally reviewed the memorial. After a quarter of an hour, when Ji Chen put down the teacup in his hand, Eunuch Xin stepped forward to pour the tea. Opening Ji Chen's teacup, he realized that the tea in it hadn't decreased at all, it was still [-]-[-]% full.

Quietly poured out the cooled tea and replaced it with a cup of hot tea. Eunuch Xin went back and forth to pack up his things again. It wasn't until the palace servants began to light the lamps that he realized that His Majesty had been sitting for a long time, earnestly correcting the memorial or calling the ministers to come Talking and dinner were only used a little, and I continued to be busy.

This is something that has never happened since ascension to the throne.

Eunuch Xin once also heard Qin Sheng say a few words, saying that virtuous emperors like Yao and Shun would spend the night worrying about the important affairs of their family and country, and hardly rested.

But Qin Sheng changed the subject, "Of course, it's good to be like His Majesty now."

He is not a perfect king, and they are not the best courtiers, but they met just right, and they can tolerate each other and understand each other, supporting them all the way to today.

Before the memorial of the book case, among the prepared materials, in the distant He'an County, everyone performed their duties and did their best, and no one ever relaxed.

His Majesty doesn't seem to have done much, but he is actually doing his best.

Lighting the candle closest to the desk, Eunuch Xin closed the door lightly. Before leaving, he subconsciously looked at the thick pile of memorials that had been corrected on the desk, and then looked away, praying secretly in his heart. All the best, everyone is safe.

Frankly speaking, the situation with the plague is not optimistic.

The main reason is that the flood has not receded. Now it is the end of April, and the season of spring plowing is coming to an end. The people are worried day and night, fearing that they will not be able to eat this year.

What's more, when the flood came, some people ran away after rolling up gold and silver, planning to buy grain at that time. The vicinity of He'an County is also considered a land of fish and rice, with rich soil, but the cellars dug by the people are almost It was submerged, and the food that could be salvaged was far less than expected, and the price of food in the surrounding counties had increased by a full five times compared to the beginning.

You Hanqian reminded Wanwan, saying that you can’t drink raw water, and you can’t eat small animals and fish carcasses in the flood. extremely difficult.

After being busy for a long time, Bi Xuan came to He'an County in a hurry, told You Han something about the quarantine area, and hurriedly took away a batch of materials, and decided to bomb a few more places and repair more areas.

Remote areas have not received so much attention, and some places have been severely affected by the disaster. Now the refugees are gradually gathering in groups and rushing towards He'an County. Everyone in the Imperial Hospital brought by You Han has to go to battle, picking out those who may be infected with the plague one by one. People were sent to the observation area and isolation area, the dead and wounded were cremated and buried, and the surrounding people gathered here.

The newly appointed magistrate of He'an County was a student of the last imperial examination. After all, he was the first to stand up to preside over the overall situation after the former magistrate ran away. Now, looking at the tragic scene in front of him, he felt that the word "sadness is everywhere" again, But when he saw the army that was struggling to maintain the team, and the doctors who were busy but not chaotic, he felt that there was still hope.

But in the invisible place behind, the imperial doctors are not in harmony, especially in the teams of Xia and Yue. You Han is arguing with one of the witch doctors.

"I think this place can use ginseng as medicine, and adding some ganoderma is also good."

"This recipe can be used by ordinary people? You should add some aloe vera and mung beans. The cheaper and more common the raw materials, the better."

The Xia Kingdom witch doctor felt that You Han was simply unreasonable. He had good methods and good medicinal materials but put them aside. Those people had nothing to save, and they would starve to death if they were saved. Can reduce the risk of other people being infected.

You Han also felt that Xia Guo's witch doctor was out of his mind, returning ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum, choosing whichever medicinal material was more expensive, even if these accounts were borne by the state treasury, it was impossible for the surrounding counties to save enough ginseng to treat thousands of people!Then where is she going to get this medicinal material!

The most important thing is that the prescriptions must be tested one by one to observe the curative effect on different patients. The envoy of the Xia Kingdom had long wanted to have a separate relationship with You Han. After trying out the best prescription, he would return to China. However, these patients all belonged to You Han. Han Guan, he can't go past You Han to find a patient to try medicine, he must get her consent.

You Han only wants to do her best to save people, even if she is not satisfied with Xia Guo's witch doctors, but now the number of doctors is small, and one more doctor is considered a good help.

The two sides endured for a long time, and discussed the plan while torturing each other. They finally came up with a good prescription, and then they focused on Zheng San, who had pretended to be sick at first and then was really infected with the plague.

You Han said lightly: "You are a doctor, and you are more sensitive to the curative effect. Don't worry, I will not let you die."

Xia Guo's witch doctor narrowed his eyes, "You are from Yue, so you don't mind making sacrifices, do you?"

Zheng San: "..."

He minds, why doesn't he mind!

The temporary imperial doctor's dormitory was bustling again, bowls of boiled medicine were sent to the refugee area, the sick were cured but not diseased, and the medicinal materials in the isolation area were indispensable every day. Bai Qi shook his head and continued to deal with various trivial matters. The medicinal materials were drawn from the surrounding counties, and those who refused to give them were forced to knock on the door. The second batch of food from Kyoto arrived on time, and various supplies from the surrounding counties also arrived in He'an County. Now these things are being distributed. The emotions of the refugees gradually rose, and they were no longer depressed.

With Bi Xuan and Ji Pei's various blasts, the river flowed smoothly again, the flood gradually receded, and the task of rebuilding He'an was in front of us. Five or six days later, the refugees were assigned tasks and began to repair the farmland. , clearing roads, rebuilding houses, etc.
