"Sun Simiao is worthy of the name of King of Medicine."

Li Ke sighed.

On the table, there is a vaccination plan handwritten by Sun Simiao. It is detailed and covers all aspects.

Although Li Ke was the one who proposed vaccination with cowpox, he had never learned this.

Clearly half-assed.

You can only tell what you know.

And now all of this has been summarized in this handwritten plan.

"Zhao Ming, take this plan and rush to the capital as fast as possible and ask the people from the palace to present it to you."

Li Ke said immediately.

"yes!"

After a while, a fast horse came out of the city and galloped towards Chang'an.

After Zhao Ming left, Li Ke was not idle, but rushed to the county government again.

In the past few days of taking care of Sun Simiao, he had already asked people to divide the basic areas.

They are isolation area, treatment area, infection area, and treatment area.

With the arrival of smallpox, many people lost their houses and fled the city to avoid the epidemic. Nowadays, a large number of vacant houses can be used for resettlement.

The establishment of four major areas has eased the chaos in the city, and the people belonging to each category are classified into the corresponding areas.

After Sun Simiao learned about it, he naturally praised it greatly.

"Daozhang Sun, how is the situation?"

Li Ke took precautions and walked into the county government office.

Compared with the past few days, in addition to patients, there are several more busy people in the county government office.

"His Royal Highness King Wu."

Sun Simiao saw him and asked a doctor next to him to take over his work.

"The situation is still very serious!"

During the few days he took a rest, Li Ke was not idle either.

But since he didn’t know medical skills, there was nothing he could do.

As a result, the condition of some patients with early symptoms worsens, delaying treatment time.

Sun Simiao felt quite guilty about this.

If I hadn't insisted on going my own way, the situation might have been much better.

But now is not the time to talk about this.

"Your Highness King Wu, the top priority is to raise manpower as soon as possible. Our doctors are far from enough now."

Sun Simiao frowned, with a look of exhaustion on his face.

The five or six people busy behind him are the only remaining doctors in the city.

"Don't worry, Daozhang Sun, I have sent someone back to the capital, bringing with them the cowpox vaccination draft."

"Beijing should be preparing for disaster relief."

Li Ke said to Sun Simiao.

However, he was actually quite confused about this matter.

It has been almost half a month since the epidemic started, and I have been here for a week.

Disaster relief, but still no trace.

What on earth is Li Er doing!

"Is there any problem with the draft?"

"It's no problem. As long as you follow the steps, ordinary doctors can complete it."

After hearing this, the fatigue on Sun Simiao's face dissipated a lot, but soon a trace of worry appeared again.

Cowpox vaccination can only prevent smallpox, but there is no other way for people who have been infected with smallpox.

Now that the epidemic has been going on for half a month, I don’t know how many people have been infected again.

All this made him extremely heartbroken.

"Your Highness King Wu, is there really no cure for smallpox?"

Sun Simiao looked at Li Ke and asked again.

Li Ke smiled bitterly and shook his head.

If this were modern times, various advanced medical solutions might be available.

But this is Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty.

The only method doctors can use is traditional Chinese medicine.

Perhaps there was some kind of medicine that could cure smallpox.

But Li Ke didn't know.



"Snapped!"

In the Imperial Study Room, Li Shimin looked a little ugly and slammed the memorial in his hand on the table.

This Qinghe Cui family really needs to be dealt with.

Ever since the news of the smallpox outbreak in Hebei came, he began to write letters criticizing himself.

As the news of the disaster relief spread and personnel began to be mobilized, there was a pause for a day or two.

But it seemed as if he was afraid that he would forget. Before the effectiveness of the disaster relief efforts began to show, they wrote another letter to scold him.

There is not a single swear word, but the whole article is more irritating than swearing at you.

"Ms. Cui, don't let me catch you."

Li Shimin thought.

That's when.

Wang Meng came over, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the news about the disaster area has been responded to."

Li Shimin's expression perked up.

"read!"

"After investigation, the smallpox epidemic in Hebei has affected Texas, Beizhou...Cangzhou, a total of ten states."

"The estimated number of people affected by the disaster is 1.5 million..."

"Among them, Cangzhou was the source of this smallpox outbreak and was the most severely affected..."

As Wang Meng read out the contents of the memorial one by one, Li Shimin's face gradually darkened.

During the Zhenguan period, the total population of the Tang Dynasty was about 30 million, of which the total population in Hebei, Henan, and Huaibei regions was close to 20 million.

Although the smallpox outbreak occurred in Hebei this time, the population was not as dense as in Henan, but Cangzhou itself had a large population, and smallpox was a highly infectious disease.

Spreads extremely quickly.

Therefore, in less than half a month, it quickly spread to other states around Cangzhou.

But as the data emerged, Li Shimin still felt heartbroken.

"Where is Cangzhou Mu?"

"It's been almost half a month, and I haven't even seen him make a single move!"

Li Shimin said coldly.

"Your Majesty, Cangzhou Shepherd Chen He returned to Chang'an half a month ago on the grounds of visiting relatives."

Half a month ago?

It has only been less than half a month since the outbreak of smallpox. How could it be such a coincidence?

"This bitch is not trying to save relatives. I'm afraid he couldn't hold himself back and escaped."

"Even if you run away, you still know what you know and don't report it!"

"Damn it!"

Li Shimin was so angry that he slapped the table, causing the tea cup to overturn and the tea to flow all over the floor.

Wang Meng did not answer, but sighed in his heart.

Cangzhou Mu’s operation is really hard to understand.

Natural disasters such as smallpox can disappear without human intervention.

You might as well have run away on your own, but you still didn't report the incident, so that the disease would spread to other states and cause a catastrophe.

His Majesty was chased and scolded by those guys for three days, and he was suffocating in his heart.

Now it's good. It's probably light to dismember the five horses.

Indispensable is to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan.

"Chen Han, go catch this bitch right away and let Dali Temple punish him!"

"yes!"

Chen Han walked out of the darkness, received the order and left quickly.

Watching the other party leave, Li Shimin felt that his lungs were about to explode.

After all the trouble, it turns out that it was such a bastard who caused the trouble.

Natural disasters are certainly unpredictable and difficult to prevent.

But as long as it is handled properly after it occurs, it will not cause a serious problem.

Early detection leads to early disaster relief.

Nothing happened.

"Where's the news about disaster relief?" Li Shimin asked again.

"Back to Your Majesty, one hundred thousand taels of silver have been basically arrived, and personnel from all parties have also entered the disaster area."

"only……"

Wang Meng hesitated slightly when he said this.

Li Shimin frowned immediately.

"Just what?"
