Capital City, Imperial Palace.
"Greetings to your Majesty. May your Majesty be safe." Doctor Liu rushed in with a goggle in his hand.
"Liu Shan is your classmate, and he is now affiliated with the Royal Hospital. Where is he now?" Qi Xingyun asked eagerly.
Of course, Imperial Doctor Liu knew the priorities and said: "After Shaoqing learned about the incident in Ezhou, he wrote a letter to transfer Liu Shan to work beside him. He should be walking to Wuchao Lake now."
Qi Xingyun breathed a sigh of relief. With people like Liu Shan in charge, Ezhou would at least keep the people's minds stable. Only when the people's minds are not in chaos can they accomplish great things.
"I also plan to leave for Liaodong tomorrow." Liu Yuyi smiled with a hint of indifference.
The epidemic in Liaodong County is under control, but it does not mean that there is no need for alchemists or doctors. Daqi has nearly 130,000 elite soldiers, and nearly 500,000 civilians are still in Liaodong. If this spreads wantonly, it will be The misfortune of Daqi.
Qi Xingyun looked at Imperial Doctor Liu. This guy who was a little timid at first has now become more responsible.
When Qi Xingyun personally conquered the Hedong Road, the scene where Liu Yuyi was unwilling to follow him was still vivid in his mind. If it hadn't been for the explicit order, Liu Yuyi would not be anywhere now.
"Then go and be careful when you get there. When I go there next year, you will be waiting for me in Fangyang." Qi Xingyun nodded.
The post of director of the Royal Hospital should be handed over to Doctor Liu, who must have medical skills and be responsible.
Qi Xingyun's brows finally relaxed a little. Plague and plague are actually not terrible. As long as you have the correct awareness of prevention and appropriate means, you can prevent or even avoid infection.
The scary thing is that the magistrate of Ezhou deliberately concealed the report because of the winged hat on his head, causing the situation to be out of control.
Qi Xingyun felt a stone drop in his heart, and the other stone was also very heavy. He said to Wang Yun: "Ask Li Bangyan to mobilize the Di Bao tabloid to promote health and epidemic prevention. I asked Di Bao to do this before. Drink Hot water and frequent handwashing.”
Qi Xingyun suddenly remembered something and said: "Also, I remember last time that Concubine Xian said that the textile factory was in good shape. She asked the leader to come over and I asked him to produce something to be prepared."
He wanted to make masks. Of course, the effect of these cotton masks in Daqi is minimal for epidemic prevention, but they are better than nothing and are more than enough to prevent droplets.
Liu Yuyi suddenly came out and said: "Your Majesty, I am naturally well prepared when I go to Liaodong County. I have designed something."
"As for the plague, the most scary thing is that the doctor also got sick, and the doctor didn't dare to go there. Moreover, doctors frequently come into contact with patients and are extremely susceptible to illness. This thing I designed should still be of some use. .”
"Oh?" Qi Xingyun said with some interest, "Send it over."
Dr. Liu asked someone to wear a leather armor and a helmet with a long leather neck protector.
The leather armor is made of hard cowhide stitched together and layered so that it is airtight. The helmet has a long beak that is very sharp. Judging from the design, it should be hollow in the middle.
This helmet is also inlaid with two pieces of transparent glass to protect the eyes.
"The beak mask here is modified? Is the beak filled with cotton?" Qi Xingyun asked with great interest.
Liu Imperial Doctor nodded and said: "This is because after the doctors from Yajili learned about the plague in Liaodong, they ran to the Imperial Hospital to find me, and told me that Yajili had such a special tool to protect doctors, but In my opinion, the bird's beak mask is still a little less interesting."
"I made it into a fully enclosed helmet, wash it clean after use and dry it for repeated use."
"As for the hollow part, stuff it with wet cotton and activated carbon soaked in vinegar, as well as some mint leaves, styrax and other spices to prevent small worms." Wang Yun pointed to the hollow part and said.
"Can vinegar, mint leaves and styrax kill small worms?" Qi Xingyun asked doubtfully.
Microorganisms were the name used by Dr. Liu for bacteria and other microorganisms, and Qi Xingyun did not correct him.
The name of the bacteria is what Yang Ruoqing said, and the name of the microorganism is what Liu Yuyi said. They are both family names, and they have similar meanings.
Just spices and vinegar can be used to disinfect?
Dr. Liu shook his head and said helplessly: "I have tried vinegar, vinegar steam, or spices, but they can't kill the small worms. The only effect they can have is to wake them up." That’s it. But some people believed this, so I filled it in, and it didn’t smell very good.”
"This thing can only reduce the possibility of getting sick, but it cannot provide complete protection. The worms are too small and can penetrate everywhere." Dr. Liu shook his head helplessly.
Qi Xingyun nodded. Doctor Liu and Qi Xingyun behaved very similarly. They knew it was useless, but they still did it.
He previously agreed to Qin Tianjian's request and built a prayer platform, which is a typical example.
That's not to say that the eagle beak helmet has no protection at all, but if it does, it's better than nothing.
Doctor Liu said with determination: "I think the emperor is right. The most important thing right now is to publicize the importance of drinking hot water and washing hands frequently."
Qi Xingyun nodded, drinking hot water was one of the extremely important things Yang Ruoqing told him.
It seems very simple, but in this era of Daqi.
Firewood is salary, it is property.
It is difficult for everyone to accept this point of view.
After the textile leader came to the palace, Qi Xingyun briefly described his idea. He said it was very simple and the output could be large, which could at least satisfy the use of the doctors dispatched by the Imperial Hospital.
This made the huge rock in Qi Xingyun's heart finally fall to the ground, and Qi Xingyun also wrote letters to Liu Yu and Jiang Wulang, telling them to be careful.
"Ezhou Magistrate, Qi Shaoqing, I thought it would be better to just exile him to Lingnan." Qi Xingyun said through gritted teeth.
If it weren't for the Ezhou magistrate's concealment, could this matter be so violent?
When the Suzhou magistrate hid Qi Xingyun's flood problem before, he was only hiding it from the emperor. However, it was time to inform the capital and let the court handle and provide support.
Qi Xingyun can tolerate such unspoken rules. After all, it is unjustifiable for a place like the Chaotang that has existed for more than a thousand years to have no inhumane rules.
But he couldn't tolerate the concealment of the Ezhou magistrate. The refugees in Tanzhou revolted, which led to the state capital being breached. The Tanzhou magistrate had his head chopped off by the revolted people, and he couldn't retaliate.
Could it be that his Ezhou was also breached? !
"I think it would be more appropriate to go to the capital with a yoke." Qi Lingsu took out a book of "Da Qi Lv" and flipped through it.
"Found it, Section 32 of "Official Administration" in "Volume 3: Officials Department of Shangshu".
"Your Majesty, according to the laws of Daqi, the magistrate of Ezhou is guilty of dereliction of duty, and it is appropriate to issue an edict to reprimand him. However, the behavior of the magistrate of Ezhou is extremely bad and has caused a large-scale impact. According to the law, he is dismissed from his post and exiled with shackles. Lingnan.”
Qi Xingyun looked at the Da Qi Lu in Qi Lingsu's hand and really saw how the Ezhou prefect was going to deal with it.
"All officials who earn salary, middle and lower, will be deprived of salary for one season for each rank they retire. For public crimes, they will be demoted and relieved of their posts. If they are deprived of their current salary, they will be prosecuted. Public crimes are extremely heinous and they will be returned to the capital with the yoke."
