Before he finished speaking, the expression of the person who had previously complimented Su Xian and asked for credit for Su Xian suddenly changed slightly.
Yes, the only way to prevent the plague is to prevent it. The key is to suppress the plague before it breaks out, so that the plague will not appear at all.
But what if plague patients from Henan Province flooded into Hebei Province and were directly infected?
I'm afraid it will also "spread across several states in one night" and cause "more than 10,000 casualties"!
They were in Yingzhou, which was several states away from the north bank of the Yellow River. It should be impossible for the plague to spread to Yingzhou, but it was a plague!
Talking about plague has changed since ancient times.
They suddenly felt a chill coming out of their spines and spreading throughout their bodies instantly. Some even shivered and their fingertips were trembling.
The tent became quiet.
Wang Sima frowned, obviously thinking hard about countermeasures.
The expressions of Su Xian and Li Youqing did not change at all, and they seemed to have wisdom in their hands.
Wang You and other officials and generals were worried. They did not dare to blame Su Xian and had no reason to blame Su Xian. The method of preventing the plague was very good, but now they were facing another crisis.
So...who is to blame?
Weekly diary room!
Yes, that's him!
After Wang You was horrified for a while, he couldn't help but tell Li Youqing:
"Princess, the Zhou Ji Office is based in Bozhou. While leading the implementation of plague prevention methods, it also supervises disaster relief."
"However, Zhou Ji's office neglected its duties and actually caused plague patients from Henan Province to flood into our Hebei Province."
"Our Hebei Province should be prosperous and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. However, due to the Zhou Ji Office, the population of our Hebei Province has dropped sharply!"
"I would like to ask you to punish the Zhou Ji office supervisor for his lax supervision, as a warning to others!"
"..."
After Wang You finished speaking, a large group of people came out to second the proposal.
Zhou Ji's Office suddenly became the target of public criticism, and its reputation was extremely bad.
Just when the crowd was furious, Princess Lanling raised her hands and pressed them down gently, causing the heated discussion in the tent to stop abruptly.
"It seems that you still don't understand enough about Su Shen's method of preventing the plague."
Princess Lanling opened her red lips lightly, and the smile on her lips never disappeared. She said with a smile: "This method can not only prevent the plague, but it can also cure it!"
"Can it also cure the plague!?" Everyone was shocked. Wang Sima suddenly raised his head and stared at Princess Lanling who was sitting high up.
"That's right! In fact, when Zhou Ji's office set out for the disaster area that day, several imperial doctors followed him." Li Youqing took the time to look at Su Xian, and then said:
"Su Counselor gave long instructions to the imperial doctors and told them some directions for treating the plague."
"After the plague patients from Henan Province poured into our Hebei Province, in addition to isolation, the imperial doctors also began to try to treat them according to the directions given by Su Consultation."
"The result was an immediate success. Most of the plague patients who poured into Hebei Province have been treated...so you don't need to worry about the spread of the plague in Hebei Province."
"..."
After Princess Lanling finished speaking, everyone in the tent opened their mouths and fell into a daze.
They have suffered enough shocks today, from the civil strife in Liao in the morning to the success of the method to prevent the plague just now.
But now, they were still shocked beyond measure.
After a long time, Wang Sima finally understood and accepted the shocking news. He looked sideways at Su Xian, his eyes complex and appreciative and asked:
"Su Consultation...how can we guide the imperial doctors to treat plague patients?"
He was very curious. Although he did not doubt Su Xian, Su Xian was really too young. He had never seen Su Xian know medical skills before!
Everyone also turned to look, and Princess Lanling was no exception. They were all very curious.
Su Xian coughed, bent down and bowed, covered his face and said as if reading aloud:
"Actually, these are not my imagination, but they come from a lost ancient book - "Essential Art of Qi Min"! When Xiaguan was young, he was lucky enough to see half a volume of this book. Being able to get a glimpse of the whole book, and almost forgetting all the content I read when I was young, is really a pity in Xianguan's life."
"..."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other with understanding.
After all, the Central Plains has experienced several wars, and with every turmoil or dynasty change, part of various ancient books and techniques would be lost.
The most obvious example, why are the costumes different in each dynasty?
The new dynasty has a lot of things to do. One reason is that it is different from the previous dynasty in terms of clothing. There is another reason. Maybe the tailors of the current dynasty didn't know how to make the clothes of the previous dynasty and they were lost!
Another example is that some familiar classics were even re-introduced from abroad at the beginning of the new dynasty, because domestic books had long been burned to a pile of ashes...
War, especially war on the scale of a dynasty change, causes unimaginable damage.
Therefore, when Su Xian said that there was such an ancient lost book called "Essential Art of Qi Min", they had no doubt at all!
After all, the aristocratic families and royal families of the current world have some unique collections of copies passed down from ancient times. If they are lost, they will be lost in the long river of history.
Princess Lanling and everyone saw the regret on Su Xian's face and comforted him a few words. After that, no one mentioned the matter again and it was revealed.
"Su Jianyi has made two great achievements in succession, both of which have contributed to the country and benefited the people of the world. How can I sit back and ignore it?"
Princess Lanling looked at Qiu Dianjun and ordered:
"Later, I will write two copies of the memorial in my own hand. You can take it with you to the capital of the gods to meet His Majesty and explain the matter to His Majesty. There must be no mistakes!"
"I accept the order!" Qiu Dianjun happily accepted the job.
"..."
Wang Sima reported: "Your Highness, since we can cure the plague, why not send people across the Yellow River to treat the sick people in Henan Province?"
Su Xian continued: "Yes, we are fully prepared. In addition to the food for disaster relief, we have also stocked up on various medicinal materials, which can be used to save people in Henan Province."
Wang You and other subordinate officers and generals also seconded the proposal.
Everyone can see that going to Henan Province to save people is a good thing and it can save many lives. Why not do it?
Princess Lanling nodded and smiled:
"Although I am only the deposed envoy of Hebei Province and not responsible for disaster relief in Henan Province, I am also the Minister of Daliang. How can the princess of Daliang sit back and watch the plague spread across Henan Province."
"Immediately send people across the Yellow River to treat the people of Henan Province. Let Wang Sima handle this matter with full authority."
"..."
After Li Youqing finished her instructions, she got up and left the Chinese army tent. She had to rush to write a memorial.
Su Xian and others left the tent one by one, but he had just taken two steps when Qiu Dianjun stepped forward with a smile and said: "Please wait, Su Xian. The princess invites you to have dinner with us. Please come with me."
Su Xian followed Qiu Dianjun.
Wang Sima was slightly startled and said to himself, no wonder the princess left the matter of sending people to rescue people in Henan Road to him instead of to Su Xian. It turned out that she wanted to have dinner with Su Xian.
"Eh!"
Wang Sima shook his head. Naturally, he would not be jealous. He cheered up and summoned Wang You and other subordinate officials for a small meeting.
The matter of sending people to Henan Road to rescue people must be dealt with immediately. The plague will not wait for anyone.
