Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

"Lu Shangshu."

Jiang Chengdao stood up slowly, took back his hand, turned to look at Lu Chen, and shook his head.

"She's dead."

"Is it."

Lu Chen's eyes were a little downcast.

"Yes."

Jiang Chengdao sighed softly: "Lu Shangshu, please give me my condolences."

Lu Chen nodded slightly, and then looked at the smiling peasant woman on the hospital bed with a peaceful face. A trace of sadness flashed across her face, but it quickly disappeared, and she returned to her usual calmness in just a moment.

I don’t know whether it was after experiencing what happened to the common people in the city and getting used to life and death that I became unhappy in my heart, or because I realized that any of my emotions could not change the reality, so I forcibly restrained myself.

After a moment, he gently looked away, and then ordered the accompanying sergeant to bury the peasant woman properly, and then looked at the accompanying army doctor and craftsman who looked very excited.

"You did a great job."

He rarely spoke up and praised a few words.

"Having a benevolent heart and not afraid of life and death, he is worthy of being a soldier of our Great Xia."

Hearing Lu Chen's words of approval for him, the excitement on the military doctor's face became even more intense, inexplicably giving Lu Chen the feeling of a fan meeting.

"Thank you very much, Governor-General. I hope your humble position does not bring embarrassment to you."

Most of the Qingning Guards were members of the original Suizhou Guards and Yuzhou Guards, and a considerable number of them had been personally trained by Lu Chen.

He was one of them, and one of the first.

Only the thousands of Yuzhou guards who followed Lu Chen when he was governing Yuzhou would always call him Governor, even if Lu Chen had resigned. It seemed that in their hearts, only Lu Chen was worthy of being their Yuzhou native. Governor.

Lu Chen shook his head slightly and did not respond.

It seemed that he had completely transformed the two guards into a benevolent and righteous force that was invincible and had made many achievements for him. To him, it was just a trivial matter.

In fact, this was not his original intention, but the result was not that bad for him now.

Then he inspected several wards in succession.

Each ward has dedicated military doctors who are waiting dutifully to take care of the patients infected with the blood epidemic even at the risk of blood explosion. Although they are not without the intention of shrinking, they persevered in the end.

And the people who were infected finally felt completely at ease when they saw that the people in the court did not abandon them at all as rumored, but instead did this for them.

If the imperial court is willing to save them, they still have a glimmer of hope. Even if death is inevitable in the end, they will only complain about their bad fate and not the imperial court.

In any case, the court at least tried its best.

This is enough.

Therefore, there is no need to do unnecessary things, just follow God’s will.

Of course, Lu Chen's inspection of the ward was not just to check the government's actions. This was just incidental. His real purpose was to find out the specific symptoms of the blood epidemic and see if there was any solution.

Although there are rumors that ordinary people will die if they are infected with the blood plague, and once a blood explosion is caused, everyone around them is easily infected with the blood plague, and even cultivators may not be immune.

Furthermore, blood plague is a type of spiritual disaster, a horrific disaster that even cultivators have to avoid, so few people study its symptoms.

Even a monk like Liu Ruowei who is a minor in medicine can only study plague at most. After all, compared with blood plague, plague poses a much smaller threat to cultivators.

The world knows very little about the blood plague, let alone how to cure it.

But just because no one had researched a way to rescue him, it didn't mean it didn't exist. Lu Chen wanted to see if the modern knowledge in his mind could be put to use.

It's a long shot, but it's better than doing nothing.

There is naturally a risk in doing this, but for Lu Chen, who has a system, this risk is almost non-existent.

After asking for most of the day, Lu Chen finally got a general idea of ​​the blood epidemic.

What is certain is that the blood epidemic can be directly transmitted through droplets, blood, body fluids, etc., infecting the human respiratory system, causing people to cough incessantly, almost coughing out the lungs, and after finally recovering, they will become violent Panting, frantically sucking in the air around him.

From the current point of view, the blood epidemic mainly corrodes and damages the human respiratory system.

As for the reason for the blood explosion

"His Majesty."

Lu Chen suddenly raised his head and looked at Jiang Chengwan not far away in front of him.

"Wei Chen would like to request a decree."

Jiang Chengwan responded casually: "What's the purpose? It doesn't matter if Lu Qing says it."

While speaking, she took out the golden communication talisman from her arms, as if she would crush the communication and return to Beijing as soon as Lu Chen opened his mouth.

Jiang Chengdao on the side looked a little speechless.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but I always feel that my sister treats Lu Chen so well that she doesn't even look like a monarch.

Damn it, a monarch and his ministers must have a certain degree of respect for each other, right?

Lu Chen didn't think so much and said directly: "Your Majesty, please issue an order to summon Liu Ruowei, the head of the Qingnang Bureau, and all the officials to come here to study the cure and prevention of the blood epidemic."

At this point, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and added: "By the way, let Liyue come over too."

Hearing Lu Chen mention the name Liu Ruowei, Jiang Chengwan frowned subconsciously.

She was too familiar with Liu Ruowei.

To this day, she still remembers the scene when Liu Dongyang, Minister of the Ministry of War, proposed to marry Lu Chen at Gu Simiao's triumphal ceremony last year.

Although Lu Chen refused on the grounds that "the world is not at peace, how can we take care of our family", this matter will not go away so easily, especially in order to perfect Liu Ruowei's medical skills, Lu Chen later worked in the Tiangong Department. A Qingnang Bureau was set up

They were both in the same department, and Liu Ruowei would sit down and talk with Lu Chen from time to time on the grounds of asking for advice.

To be honest, Jiang Chengwan had been dissatisfied with Liu Ruowei for a long time. At this time, Lu Chen asked her to summon Liu Ruowei over, and she instinctively resisted.

As for Liyue?

She didn't really care about that stunted kid. It didn't matter no matter how much contact he had with Lu Chen. There was no need to ask.

"Cure the sick and save the lives."

She did not issue an order immediately, but pondered for a moment, and then said softly: "The Qingnang Bureau has only been established for a year, and the experience is still shallow. It is probably not of much help. It is better to call the imperial doctor with superb medical skills in the palace."

Lu Chen shook his head and rejected the proposal.

"Exquisite medical skills mean that they have gone far in the familiar field and have solid thinking, but the blood epidemic is a completely unfamiliar field to them. People who don't know how to work around can't help much. Although the qualifications of Qingnang Bureau are shallow, both Chief Liu and all the doctors are people who pursue the ultimate in medical knowledge. Wei Chen believes that they may be able to bring unexpected joy."

Hearing what Lu Chen said, Jiang Chengwan could only nod helplessly.

The decree was issued quickly.

Xingping County is not far from the capital, and it only takes one day for the Qingnang Bureau to arrive immediately after receiving the order.

Liu Ruowei and the others will probably arrive by this time tomorrow at the latest.

However, what Lu Chen didn't expect was that just after he returned to the inn after inspecting the epidemic prevention situation in Xipingfang, a petite figure walked towards him.

"Lord Governor!"

Looking at the figure that was less than his chest height, a question mark appeared on Lu Chen's forehead.

"Liyue? Why are you here?"

The person coming was none other than Liyue.

Lu Chen never expected that the decree issued more than an hour ago would now see Liyue herself.

Even if Liyue is one of the top experts in Xuanji Guards, she can't come here so quickly, right?

"Sister Fu, uh, the commander asked me to come here."

Liyue responded subconsciously.

Then she turned around again and bowed to the Jiang brothers and sisters.

"This is a humble post, Your Majesty."

"See His Royal Highness the Holy King."

Jiang Chengwan responded.

"No gift."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Jiang Chengwan glanced at her and said calmly: "Fu Hua sent you here, did you say anything?"

Liyue directly said the words Fu Huan had prepared for her before.

When Jiang Chengwan heard that it was entrusted by Luo Xiaoyu, Jiang Chengwan said nothing more.

Back in the inn lobby, Jiang Chengwan and Jiang Chengdao did not rush upstairs, but sat opposite Lu Chen Liyue.

"By the way, Liyue."

The situation was urgent, so Lu Chen didn't bother to be polite and got down to business.

"The endoscope, the spiritual pulse meter, the meridian meter, the spirit measuring talisman, these instruments and talismans developed according to the needs of the Qingnang Bureau and spiritual energy research, have you kept them in the airspace and haven't touched them, right?"

Although Liyue was a little confused as to why Lu Chen suddenly asked this, she still nodded and said, "They are all here. I have kept them well since you handed them to me, and haven't touched any of them."

Hearing this, Lu Chen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Very good, take them out and give them to me later."

"oh."

Liyue responded.

Airspace is her unique method, a miniature space that belongs to her alone.

Some dead objects can be stored inside.

Time completely stops in the space, and anything will look the same when it is put in, so some important objects and information of the Tiangong Division are kept by her.

After all, not only does she have an independent space, but she is also a cultivator in the Ruins Realm, Xuanji Guard Qianhu, and the top master of the Tiangong Division. With her in charge, everyone can rest assured.

Jiang Chengwan couldn't help but feel slightly stunned when he heard these messy terms.

As an emperor, she has a lot of things to do. Naturally, she cannot keep an eye on the Tiangong Division. What's more, Lu Chen is personally in charge of the Tiangong Division, and he can freely use internal funds. She, as the top leader, naturally has no need to interfere with everything.

Therefore, she actually doesn't understand many of Tiangong Division's technologies and projects, let alone how far Tiangong Division has developed.

All I know is that although most of the Tiangong Division's projects are extremely expensive, they are also extremely profitable. Due to Lu Chen's various operations, the internal funds are not only empty, but the money in the warehouse is almost too much to hold.

Listening to Lu Chen say this now, she had an inexplicable feeling that she was not keeping up with the times.

And she couldn't talk to him, which gave her an inexplicable sense of crisis.

So, after dinner, she called Liyue over and asked her to explain one by one what the instruments and talismans that Lu Chen mentioned just now were and what their functions were.

So as not to be unable to keep up with Lu Chen’s topics in the future. (End of chapter)
