Chapter 523: Do you have any countermeasures?
Plague!
When these two words rang out, a louder thunder exploded above the heads of the Daxing Palace, shocking everyone's minds for a moment.
Chu Ruoyan, who was originally indifferent and only focused on struggling in the court hall, was also panicked at this moment.
“Why, how could this happen?”
Just as she was murmuring in disbelief, a clearer voice, with a heavier emotion than hers, said solemnly: "When the star appears, disaster begins... When the star appears, disaster begins..." < br>
The person who said this was none other than Wei Wenzhuo, the Taishi Ling who had been watching the stars at night and delivering prophecies to the emperor a few days ago. His face was solemn, as if he was mumbling to himself, but when he said those words again , better than thunder!
When the officials in the court heard the bad omen predicted by this astrology before, some were frightened, some did not believe it, and some even dismissed it. Even if it really came true, it would be nothing more than a disaster; but this time, it came true. What is happening is not only a disaster, but also a clear change of power in front of everyone's eyes!
Everyone knows one thing in their hearts -
The Daye Dynasty is over!
When the panicked Chu Ruoyan finally realized this, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning. She stood there stiffly. After a long while, she twisted her stiff neck and looked at Shang not far behind her. Ruyi's eyes were full of despair.
Yesterday, when Shang Ruyi made a "big bet" with them on the occurrence of disaster, she didn't think it was really a gamble, and she didn't even think there would be a win or loss, because that was simply not possible. It was Shang Ruyi's wishful thinking - God, how could such a catastrophe happen in such a short period of time?
However, this result happened, right in front of her eyes!
She lost, completely lost.
What she thought would never happen, everything she thought was a sure win, was completely defeated today. At this moment, she didn’t even understand whether it was Shang Ruyi who was better than her, or whether it was Shang Ruyi who was still sending out the words at this moment. The rumbling and roaring sound seemed to overwhelm her God.
As if sensing her gaze, Shang Ruyi slowly raised his head.
However, she only glanced at Chu Ruoyan lightly, and there was not even the slightest joy after victory in her eyes. Instead, she was filled with even more worry. She looked outside the hall, and the gloomy sky seemed to have been expected. She had experienced this dark moment, but as stupid as she was, she had only just thought of it yesterday.
Plague!
As for the terrible disease that only knocked down Yu Wenye in the Battle of Fufeng, she should have been vigilant earlier - how could this disease really knock out only one person?
From what I heard from the little eunuch, it was not even the discovery of individual cases, but a large number of patients in the city, crowding all the medical clinics in the inner and outer cities, and even in every village. There is an epidemic.
In this way, wouldn't it mean that the entire Daxing City——
Just thinking about it, Shang Ruyi didn't even have time to be happy about his "victory" just now, and his heart sank.
Everyone around him broke out in a cold sweat.
At this time, a thin, trembling voice came from Chu Ruoyan's arms, and whispered: "Sister Huang, what should I do?"
The one who spoke, It's Chu Chengfei.
The emperor of the Daye Dynasty, but at this moment, everyone looked at him and no longer regarded him as an emperor. The next moment after hearing these words, everyone turned their eyes to another person who had walked to the Taiji Hall. At the door, looking out at the gloomy sky that still echoed with the sound of drums and rumbling thunder, the tall and burly figure seemed to be resisting the pressure of the coming mountain rain at this moment.
The next moment, he said in a deep voice: "Inform the people from Taiyuan Hospital immediately!"
When the few chamberlains who were waiting in the main hall heard this, they didn't even have time to ask the emperor. As the eldest princess meant, she hurriedly turned around and left.
Yu Wenyuan immediately turned around and looked at the civil and military officials standing behind him, still separated on both sides, but the train was a little messy, and said in a deep voice: "Do you have any countermeasures? ”
Everyone was still in shock that the prophecy of "the star appears, disaster will arise" actually came true, and the fear of the spread of the plague. Moreover, no one here had any experience in dealing with epidemics. For a while, the entire Tai Chi Hall was silent.
At this moment, Shang Ruyi stepped forward and said, "Dad."
Yu Wenyuan immediately looked at her.
Shang Ruyi said: "Although Ruyi is not an imperial physician at the imperial hospital, he has encountered this kind of epidemic before during the Battle of Fufeng, so Ruyi would like to offer suggestions."
Yu Wen Yuan's eyes lit up.
He then remembered that his daughter-in-law told him in the study last night that she would "solve" today's matter, but it was Pei Shi and Ji Hong who had been talking, but she didn't say much. , Yu Wenyuan thought that Yu Wenye came forward to help her solve this matter.
But I didn't expect that what really needed to be "solved" turned out to be here.
And just now, under Ji Hong's questioning, Chu Ruoyan had already said that as long as the Yuwen family could solve the disaster caused by the appearance of Bixing, the emperor would abdicate.
So, all this is a matter of course!
Yu Wenyuan's eyes flickered, even under the dark sky behind him, they were still as bright as lights. He said to Shang Ruyi, "Say."
Shang Ruyi said immediately : "This disease spreads very quickly, and is easily transmitted to others through people's breath, mouth droplets, and even drinking water. Therefore, patients in the city need to be separated from ordinary people immediately to avoid the continued spread of the disease."< br>
Someone behind him immediately said: "Separation is easy, but where should the separated patients be put?"
Shang Ruyi thought for a while, and then faced the little eunuch who came to deliver the message. He said: "Now, do you have the specific number of patients?"
The little eunuch said: "This slave is in a hurry to come and report, but the following has not calculated it yet."
Yu Wenyuan twisted He frowned.
There is no specific number, making it difficult for them to make a decision now. Shang Ruyi also frowned, and murmured with his fingers: "There are eighteen large medical clinics in the inner city, and thirteen in the outer city. Judging from the number of patients they can treat, rough calculations There are six to seven hundred people, and the small medical center can treat two to three hundred people in total, so there are about a thousand people in total.”
"And the epidemic has appeared in every village. I'm afraid it's hard to count, at least there are thousands of people."
"And outside the city-"
She looked up He looked at the little eunuch and said, "There is someone outside the city. How many people and who are they?"
The young eunuch said hurriedly: "There are about two to three hundred people outside the city, and they are all seriously ill. It seems that they should be from the southwest side of the city. From the village.”
Shang Ruyi took a deep breath.
Yu Wenyuan said: "What, just say it, dad will think of a solution."
Shang Ruyi frowned and said: "Ruyi just made a rough calculation, there are at least one or two patients in the city. Thousands of people, so many people, I'm afraid it's difficult to place them casually, if Letting them wander around will easily aggravate the spread of the disease."
At this time, someone immediately said: "Let them go out of the city and find a village for them to live in. They will come back after they are cured."
“No!”
Shang Ruyi spoke almost subconsciously, but after saying these two words, she turned around and realized that the person speaking was Dr. Zhou Ying, a general practitioner who had "crossed hands" at the Dayan Temple Dharma Ceremony before.
Hearing her arrogant answer, Zhou Ying's face darkened. He was about to get angry, but he didn't dare to be really angry. He could only sneer and said: "Young lady is very decisive."
< br>Shang Ruyi opened his mouth and was about to say something, but was interrupted by another voice.
“This kind of thing requires a prompt decision.”
Zhou Ying frowned and turned around to see Yu Wenye slowly walking to Shang Ruyi’s side. He was calm and calm. He said: "Thousands of patients are sent out of the city. If the epidemic spreads and affects more states and counties, wouldn't it mean that the entire Guanzhong will be infected with the disease? Who will bear the consequences?"< br>
"..."
"Besides, the people outside the city asked to enter the city because they had no way to seek medical treatment. If we drive people out of the city, wouldn't we be telling them and leaving them to die? ”
“…”
"With so many people, are they really willing to wait for death? If they make trouble, who dares to calm them down?"
His words are well-founded and convincing. Although Zhou Ying is displeased, he also says Nothing came out, so he could only let out a deep breath and retreat.
Yu Wenye then coldly withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Shang Ruyi.
The two looked at each other. Although they said nothing, there was a tacit understanding in their eyes that did not require words.
At this time, Yu Wenyuan said: "Well, what do you think?"
Yu Wenye immediately said: "Father, I think they should be allowed to enter the city."
"..."
Yu Wenyuan didn't speak immediately, but his brows were already knitted into a knot.
This is indeed not an easy choice to make. After all, if patients are allowed to enter the city, and they are patients suffering from the plague, the city will bear several times the pressure. Once the epidemic cannot be controlled, Guanzhong may be able to keep the , but Daxing City may become a dead city.
What's more, this is not an ordinary city, but the capital of the country!
Here are not only the little emperor, the eldest princess, but also himself who has just reached the peak of power. What if at this time——
Yu Wenyuan almost immediately wanted to object, But the words couldn't come out.
He understands that victory comes from danger.
The debate in the court just now, whether it was Pei Shi's insinuations or Ji Hong's straight-to-the-point remarks, were all rebuking the little emperor for his incompetence. The reason why the Yuwen family was able to replace him in everyone's hearts was because The merits of the Yuwen family are even more due to Shang Ruyi saying those four words -
Relief for disasters and help the people!
This is the best way to get the emperor to abdicate and take over the imperial power in the name of benevolence!
Thinking of this, Yu Wenyuan took a deep breath and finally said: "You can't drive people out of the city, and you have to let people from outside the city enter the city, but you can't let them wander around. Then there is only one The method is to clear out two cities first, gather these patients, and go to those two cities for centralized treatment!”
Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall let out a low cry.
Not only was he surprised by Yu Wenyuan's vigorous and resolute actions, but he also sighed that the people of the Yuwen family really wanted to relieve disasters and help the people!
At this time, Shang Ruyi asked again: "But, Dad, which two markets should we clear out?"
"This——"
Yu Wenyuan also There is some hesitation. Clearing the market is not an easy task. Not only is it difficult to execute, but you also have to work hard on the selection. If the people inside do not cooperate and cause trouble, then the gain will outweigh the loss.
At this moment, a gentle voice said: "It is best to be Anlefang and Yanzuofang."
