Supreme peasant girl to turn over

Chapter 470 Discuss Prescription
After entering the county government office, the first thing that caught Yang Fengxian's eyes was the upright plaque. Yang Fengxian stared at it, and then raised the corners of his mouth.

The magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture is so fat, but he doesn't know how much oil and water he has shaved.I don't know how much of this upright plaque is real.

Pass through the front hall, and behind it is the backyard of the county government.The main courtyard itself was the residence of the magistrate of Xishan County, but the magistrate of Xishan County gave up the county office on the grounds of the magistrate's arrival, and moved back to his wife's natal home.

Therefore, only Fang Shusi, the magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture, lives in the county government of Xishan County.

Fang Shusi chuckled and said: "I knew before that the princess and the nobles were coming, and my servant specially asked someone to vacate the main courtyard. Will the princess stay here, or go to the inn in the county?"

Yang Fengxian looked at Pei Xiaoyao, and Pei Xiaoyao said: "We are only staying for a few days, so don't bother Mr. Fang. Now we have sent someone to reserve a room at the inn in the county, but we don't know where Mr. Xia will stay. gone."

Although Xia Qing is not familiar with these people, but right now even Princess Jiahui is talking about staying in the inn, how dare he say that he wants to live in the county government office, so he can only say that he wants to live with them by the way Inn.

There was a flash of relaxation in Fang Shusi's eyes, he gave Xia Qing a look, and then said: "Does Your Highness need to take a break? The boat is tiring, and the officials have set up a banquet for everyone to welcome the wind. Please move, all the people who are invited are The chef of the Yellow Crane Tower..."

Yang Fengxian frowned and interrupted him: "No need."

She looked at Fang Shusi: "Nowadays Dongshan County next door is still plagued by plague, how can I bear to eat it. Forget it, I have nothing to do with coming here, you can discuss these plague control matters with the son-in-law and Mrs. Xia Right. I'm tired, so I'll go back and rest first."

Then Yang Fengxian took a few maidservants to the inn, and then Pei Xiaoyao said: "Master Fang, let's go in."

A trace of contempt flashed across Fang Shusi's expression, but he suppressed it quickly, but this trace of contempt was still caught by Pei Xiaoyao.But his expression didn't change at all, he just looked at Fang Shusi lightly.

Fang Shusi soon had a smile on his face again: "Okay, since the son-in-law said it, let's go in." His hand made a gesture of invitation, and they entered the main hall together.

After several people were seated, Pei Xiaoyao asked: "I wonder if Mr. Fang can describe how this plague started?" They sat down with the ten imperial doctors, waiting to hear what the cause was.

Fang Shusi said: "Of course. A few days ago, the imperial court sent people to deal with the locust plague. It was indeed very effective. The locust plague was quickly contained, but later I don't know if it was because the locust corpses were not handled properly, or because someone starved to death. The corpse was not disposed of in time. By the time we found it, the plague had already broken out in the entire Dongshan County."

"Almost all the people have been infected, only a few young and middle-aged adults who are in better health have not been infected, and those who are slightly weaker, old, weak, women and children are not spared, and then there will be another wave of dead people, and another wave of disease. The disease will soon spread to the surrounding area. So I sent people to seal up Dongshan County, and everyone can only enter but not leave, so the plague can be regarded as under control."

Pei Xiaoyao frowned and asked, "Are there any doctors and medicinal materials in Dongshan County?"

Fang Shusi sighed: "It turns out there are some, but the doctor in Dongshan County is old and a barefoot doctor, and his medical skills can only be said to be average. It can cure a headache and brain fever, but if it is such a serious disease like the plague, then it will It’s really out of reach.”

In other words, there is not even a doctor in the entire Dongshan County, and everyone is waiting to die in despair?Moreover, the situation inside is unclear right now, there is no doctor, and there is no way to send food in. Now that the entire Shuntian Mansion has been plagued by locusts, there must be no food to eat.

"How many days has the county been closed?" Pei Xiaoyao asked.

"It's been seven days." Fang Shusi answered easily.In order to deliberately exaggerate his achievements, he said with a bitter face: "For this matter, I deliberately moved from the government office to live here in Xishan County, just to find a solution. Right now, the imperial court is sending two adults down. , It's really timely rain!" His words were flattering and flattering, with obvious flattery.

Xia Qing also asked: "Does Master Fang know the characteristics of the person who got the plague?"

Mr. Fang had already prepared an answer to this question, so he specially sent someone into Dongshan County to find out such news - although that person stayed in Dongshan County like this, so what? As long as it is beneficial to his official career, what is the sacrifice of a person.

"At the beginning, it's just a high fever that doesn't subside, and then you will vomit and have diarrhea, and then the whole person will be dehydrated quickly, but you won't die immediately. People who have the plague will continue to vomit until they vomit out all the bile and intestinal juice, and then they will vomit. He will lose weight quickly and start vomiting blood, and when all the blood is vomited, the person will lose both energy and blood, and die from exhaustion.”

Pei Xiaoyao looked at the imperial doctor sitting at the bottom and asked, "Do you understand? Now is the time to find a solution. The imperial court will not give up on any common people. As long as there is hope for a cure, we can't speak lightly. give up."

His voice was calm but firm.The world is not his world, and the people are not his people, but everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world, and he will do his best to do whatever he can.The common people in the world really need to be saved starting from one person.

The head of the imperial physician nodded, and then took the lead in discussing the prescription.And Pei Xiaoyao himself is a national teacher, although he is not very proficient in medical skills, but he knows another skill - alchemy.Boiling medicine and alchemy sometimes have the same effect, so sometimes Pei Xiaoyao can give some suggestions for other ways.

After an afternoon of discussion, the ten imperial doctors discussed a preliminary prescription. Although Fang Shusi had been very patient during this period, Pei Xiaoyao saw the impatience in his eyes.

But no matter how impatient he is, as the magistrate of Shuntian Prefecture, this is his duty.

But now, although the prescription has come out, it is facing a more serious problem - how to deliver the medicine.

As we all know, the reason why the plague is a plague is because it is extremely contagious. If someone is sent in, that person will not be able to get out, but it is impossible to send the medicine once to catch a person. If the medicine has no effect, then It's even more troublesome.

Pei Xiaoyao suggested: "Why don't we ask someone to dig out a hole outside the city wall, put a bamboo tube in through that hole, put a big barrel in the hole and put a big barrel in the hole, put the boiled medicine in the outside, and empty the barrel in the inside. If the outer barrel is elevated, the medicine can flow in along the bamboo tube, so that the medicine can be delivered without anyone's hand."
