Li Beidou was still hesitating when he saw the butler Lai Fu walking in from the front door with a fair and tender eunuch.
Li Beidou recognized the identity of this eunuch from a distance. He was Li Gao, the eunuch beside Prince Li Zhi.
Li Derjian and his wife naturally recognized this person. When they saw him coming in, they immediately asked vigilantly: "Eunuch Gao, I wonder why you are here now?"
Li Gao replied with a smile: "We have followed the prince's instructions and come to invite Lieutenant Li to the palace to see him."
Mrs. Li said unhappily: "My son is still a child, why recruit him?"
Li Gao was a little embarrassed. The epidemic was only known to a small group of people at the moment. He didn't dare to say it openly. But if he didn't say it, it was obvious that these two nobles would not let Captain Li go.
After thinking about it, he randomly found a reason and said: "The prince wants to ask Captain Li something, so he sent me to ask for it."
Mrs. Li narrowed her eyes and sneered: "Humph, Eunuch Gao, although I am a woman, I am not easy to fool. My son is just a seventh-grade official. Why does Eunuch Gao need to personally come to summon my son?" ?”
Li Gao was speechless, and his face became increasingly ugly. Li Wang is a direct descendant of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Although she looks gentle and virtuous, she is also famous for her fiery temper in Chang'an City. Regardless of her origin, he would not dare to offend easily just because she is Li Jing's daughter-in-law.
There was a deadlock for a while.
Li Derjian's face was ashen, and he seemed to have made up his mind. He pulled Li Beidou aside and said, "Beidou, tell the truth to your father. Do you... have anything you can do?"
Li Derjian was very conflicted. He was a father on one side and a son on the other. Obviously, if this matter was not handled properly, his father would inevitably be held responsible. If not for other reasons, who would let him be in charge of the Ministry of War?
But the epidemic is so dangerous, and if his son doesn't have the same whimsical ideas as before, Li Derjian will not let his son get involved even if he risks his life. He has even thought of a way out and is ready to order someone to take Li Derjian immediately. Beidou left the city to take refuge.
Li Beidou understood everything in his father's changing expression. The feeling of licking the calf moved Li Beidou. He also thought of his grandfather's various protections. How could he just sit back and watch.
So he said solemnly: "Father, don't worry, my child can find a solution."
Unexpectedly, his son really had a solution. Li Derjian was confused for a moment, with a look of intolerance on his face.
Li Beidou nodded to his father, "Don't worry, father, the child will take good care of himself. The house is by no means safe, so I hope my parents will take care of themselves."
After speaking, he bowed to Li Derjian and his mother, turned around and followed Li Gaoyu.
Li Wangshi became angry immediately, grabbed Li Beidou and said angrily: "You are not allowed to go."
Li Derjian came over and patted Wang Li on the shoulder. Wang Li stiffened and tears fell down.
Li Beidou bowed deeply and left under the gaze of everyone.
…
Li Zhi was already impatient with waiting. As soon as he saw Li Beidou arriving, he immediately asked: "Colonel Li, do you know the reason why I came to you?"
Li Beidou didn't hide it and replied directly: "Back to Your Highness, I have been to the camp before and have a general understanding of the situation."
Li Zhi was very satisfied with Li Beidou's approach of not procrastinating, nodded and said: "What do you think?"
The reason why Li Zhi calls Li Beidou an official is because he wants Li Beidou to understand that this matter has reached a critical stage and he can no longer cherish feathers.
What he subconsciously talked about was ideas rather than methods. Although he was impatient, he did not lose sight of himself.
Li Beidou thought for a while and asked, "Are there really all infected people in other health centers?"
Li Zhi glanced at General Huang, who stepped forward and said, "Yes, currently only our guards are infected by the Japanese, and the other sergeants are not infected."
Li Beidou breathed a sigh of relief. The situation was not too bad, which meant that the disease was not transmitted through breathing. As a time traveler, he was a bug. As long as he told the methods of future generations, it would be a standard template for preventing epidemic diseases.
Under the expectant gazes of General Li Zhi and General Huang, Li Beidou said firmly: "My lord, there is a way."
…
Tai Chi Palace
The Imperial Hospital Department ordered Dr. Jin, along with the confused Dr. Hu and others, to come to see him.
Li Shimin had a clear mind and knew that even the hospital would not have any good solutions, but he still said: "Jin Aiqing, you should already understand the situation, right?"
Imperial Physician Jin quickly replied: "I already know, but I think the most important thing right now is to seal the forbidden palace so that no one can enter the palace."
Li Shimin's expression changed slightly, "Jin Aiqing, are you sure it's an epidemic?"
Imperial Physician Jin shook his head helplessly and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I have been diagnosed with an epidemic."
Li Shimin sighed in despair. He didn't know how many people would die this time, but as an emperor, he had to be cruel.
"Come here, here's the decree. From now on, the Forbidden Palace will be sealed off. No one can enter or leave without orders. Anyone who disobeys the order...will be killed."
"promise!"
After the death of Imperial Physician Jin, Imperial Physician Hu hesitated to speak, his old face turned red from holding back. Since ancient times, there has been no cure for epidemic diseases. We can only wait for them to disappear on their own, but this wait is accompanied by the disappearance of countless human lives.
At this moment, the eloquent young man appeared in front of his eyes, and his inspiring words echoed in his ears, "Medicine is progressing, otherwise we would still be like the ancients, drinking blood from their hair!"
Li Shimin was frowning when he suddenly saw Dr. Hu's expression and said, "Does Hu Aiqing have anything to say?"
Doctor Hu was stunned for a moment, and then said with difficulty: "I... think that maybe... my teacher can find a way."
Li Shimin was particularly concerned about the word "method" at this moment. Seeing the embarrassment on Doctor Hu's face, he said, "Hu Aiqing..."
Before Li Shimin finished speaking, the eunuch reported outside: "The prince has something to report!"
Li Shimin frowned, but still said: "Xuan!"
I saw Li Zhi and Li Beidou hurriedly entering the palace, "My son (I pay homage to your majesty) pays homage to my father."
Li Shimin glanced at the two of them and said, "Pingshen."
Li Jing was surprised at first when he saw Li Beidou, and then stared at him calmly.
When Dr. Hu saw Li Beidou approaching, his eyes widened and he bowed slightly, unnoticeably.
Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Father, Captain Li has a way to deal with the epidemic."
Li Shimin was shocked when he heard this. He knew his son well and was definitely not someone who told nonsense. He would not speak easily if he was not 100% sure.
He immediately said excitedly: "My dear, please tell me."
Li Beidou said confidently: "Your Majesty, I believe that first of all, the patients should be gathered together for isolation to avoid infecting other people, and at the same time, disinfection work should be done well."
"Second, the Dibao must be issued every day to publicize the epidemic control situation, let the people understand the progress of the epidemic, and let them know that the government has the ability to control the epidemic."
"Third, we must do our best to treat the patients. As long as one case can be cured, it will stabilize public sentiment."
Li Beidou's words were clear and well-founded, and everyone nodded.
