The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 372 Chun Boren’s shock
The plague suddenly broke out in Chang'an. After the government intervened, people became more panicked.

In the Han Dynasty, where medical treatment was backward, every plague could rob too many people of their lives. The only thing humans could rely on was the protection of the gods. Even the emperor had to sacrifice to heaven and earth in person. All sins were added to me, so as not to harm the people. if.

It's useless, natural disasters will not stop just because you are the emperor.

However, the chiefs of the three provinces and six ministries still expected Weining to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth on behalf of the entire court.

Naturally, Weining didn't have the time to spare. He knew that these fussy things were useless and would only waste time.

When the government intervened in Chang'an, the people were in chaos, all workshops and businesses went out of business, thieves began to increase, and the prices of daily necessities continued to rise.

A plague is not just a simple plague problem. There are more and more chain reactions, and it is increasingly testing the government's ability to govern.

The six ministries coordinated, and the Ministry of War dispatched soldiers to arrest thieves and criminals and stabilize order in Chang'an.

The Ministry of Household Affairs focused on punishing those unscrupulous businessmen who increased the prices of rice, grain, oil and other daily necessities during the plague.

All the prisoners in the government prison in Sanfu, Chang'an, are human beings.

The imperial court was in dire straits, and the top officials of the three provinces and six ministries stayed up all night, working together to deal with this widespread plague.

However, the great epidemic not only occurred in places such as Guanzhong Hedong, but the same plague also appeared in southern Xinjiang.

The people even began to accuse the imperial court, and various rumors spread among the people.

Early in the morning, Wei Ning summoned Chun Boren.

Chun Boren was not idle either. He ordered officials from the Imperial Medical Office to go to the private sector for treatment, but with little success.

During this period, Chun Boren had also been observing the condition of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

"Back to Your Highness, I have been observing for two days. Your Majesty's body has a combination of cold and heat..."

Listening to Chun Boren's description, Wei Ning suddenly felt that this plague was very similar to malaria in later generations.

He wasn't sure if it was malaria.

Wei Ning opened the system and redeemed the golden chicken first. As for whether it would be useful, Wei Ning didn't know, so let's give it a try first.

"I have found a medicine, you should try it first."

Chun Boren was stunned for a moment, but he still hurriedly and respectfully took the Golden Rooster from Weining.

Naturally, he did not dare to use Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to test the medicine. If it had no effect or had the opposite effect, it would be a big sin.

Chun Boren first went to the people, found a seriously ill commoner, and fed him Golden Rooster and Nashuang.

The next thing was to wait and observe the effect. Chun Boren didn't take much rest in the past two days. He was really overworked, so he asked his disciple to observe it for him.

After Weining finished handling the memorial, he first went to Huo Qubing's residence with his hands behind his back.

Huo Zhongru had already rushed over from Pingyang. His son was infected with the plague. Although he knew that he would be infected, he still came resolutely. He was worried about others taking care of Huo Qubing, so he had to take care of him himself.

Wei Ning immediately went to Wei Qing's mansion again. When her grandmother saw Wei Ning, she burst into tears. Wei Qing was the backbone of the family. If he fell, she really didn't know what the Wei family would do in the future.

The old lady cried heartbrokenly, and Wei Ning could only offer words of comfort.

Wei Qing's situation was relatively good, but the most serious situation was Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Wei Ning said a few words to Wei Qing, comforted him and was about to leave. Wei Qing suddenly stopped Wei Ning and asked, "Is your Majesty also infected with the plague?"

Wei Ning didn't hide anything from Wei Qing and nodded: "Yes."

Wei Qing was silent for a moment and said to Wei Ning: "If His Majesty cannot survive, you need to take over the empire quickly. The regime will change. Be careful in everything."

Wei Ning said to Wei Qing: "It will get better, you all will get better."

He was not sure what kind of plague it was, so he could only exchange it for cinchona first. If it wasn't malaria, it would be troublesome.

Wei Ning could only pray secretly.

……

Dozens of plague patients were housed in a shanty town in the east of Chang'an City.

Song Yi, Chun Boren's eldest disciple, was observing the situation here.

Early this morning, Chun Boren gave medicine to one of the patients and then went back to rest. It was now time to turn on the lamp.

Song Yi was checking the conditions of the patients one by one. When he checked the last patient, he suddenly froze.

He asked the other party in shock: "When did you get rid of your fever?"

The patient said: "Noon."

"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?" The patient said, "I, I see that everyone is here, and we can still get some food rations..."

Song Yi: "..."

He really wanted to slap this bastard to death!

In such a big matter, he actually wants to take advantage of it and get an extra bowl of rice?

Song Yi ran towards the Imperial Medical Office in shock and anxiously found Chun Boren.

"Teacher, teacher."

Chun Boren was awakened and asked Song Yi with sleepy eyes: "Why are you so alarmed?"

"But is there another place infected with the plague?"

Song Yi said excitedly: "No, no, that's not the case. The plague patient that the teacher treated this morning has reduced his fever."

Chun Boren, who was still a little dazed just now, was completely awakened by Song Yi's words, and said in shock: "What did you say?"

"Fever gone?"

Song Yi said: "Yes! We will retreat at noon."

Chun Boren said angrily: "Why do you say it now?"

Song Yi simply told the story of the future, and Chun Boren said angrily: "I'll shoot that bastard to death!"

Having said that, Chun Boren immediately ran towards the palace and soon found Wei Ning in the Qilin Hall. He panted and said, "Your Highness! It's useful!"

"The medicine you gave me worked!"

Wei Ning was also stunned for a moment and said: "Okay!"

"You wait here first."

The next moment, he hurried to Jiaofang Hall.

Wei Zifu and Zhao Jieyu stood on both sides of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. When Wei Ning arrived, they saluted him.

Weining fed the exchanged golden pheasant to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Zhao Jieyu said: "Your Highness, what kind of medicine is this?"

"Do you want me to stay up for a while?"

Wei Ning said: "No need."

Zhao Jieyu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's dragon body is very important. What if the doctors got the wrong medicine and aggravated the condition?"

Wei Ning glanced at him and said, "My own medicine!"

Zhao Jieyu said: "Will Your Highness still treat me with medicine?"

Wei Ning said indifferently: "Come here, pull her out and take her back to Gouyi Palace!"

Zhao Jieyu was waiting for his words. If there is any problem with His Majesty, then you will be suspected of regicide!

She originally wanted Weining to deliver the medicine to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. The pill in Weining's hand was the same as the elixir and was obviously not a serious Chinese herbal medicine.

She has never seen someone who can eat the elixir!

Although Gongsun Qing was also a Taoist priest and knew how to make alchemy, Zhao Jieyu knew very well how he deceived him.

If anything goes wrong with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Weining cannot afford it!

Eat well, eat well!
Wei Zifu also asked Wei Ning nervously: "Ning'er, is this... elixir?"

Wei Ning shook his head and said, "Fourth Yiniang, don't you trust me too?"

Wei Zifu said: "Of course not. No one would dare to have the courage to give His Majesty the medicine indiscriminately."

"You've taken such risks, how can I not trust you?"

Wei Ning said: "I have found someone to try it, and it can cure the plague."

Wei Zifu said in shock: "Is it true?"

Weining nodded: "Yes!"
