The medical concubine is blessed with good fortune and her husband's life is prosperous. The mo

When I first entered the North District, apart from the air being different from the East District, there was also the road, which was very narrow and could barely pass two carriages.

The snow on the road is very thin, unlike in the East District, where it snows all night, and the world seems to be in a world of glass.

It snowed all night, and the snow on the road had not been trampled by anyone, but the white snow was only a thin layer, and when the wheels turned, they brought up black mud.

It's not that the snow here is thin, but that the ground here is too dirty. Even when the pure white snow falls, it becomes dirty snow.

The muddy water in the street ditches is even more dirty and seeping. It has not yet frozen, and the snow has been washed away by sewage. There is excrement flowing through, including dead cats and dogs, and some incomprehensible garbage.

Except for the two-story houses along the street, which look quite tall, the houses in the back row are all very low, like old people bent down by the snow.

The alleys inside are twists and turns, as if people will disappear when they walk in.

The entire North District was silent, except for the clatter of horse hooves, and even the cries of children seemed so weak and desperate.

It's like someone is strangling a child's neck and covering their mouth and nose. As long as they make a sound, they are immediately stopped.

In the same city of Chang'an, the difference between the East District and the North District is just like the people living in the two districts, one is above the clouds and the other is in the mud.

This is where the untouchables of Chang'an City live, the North District!

Speaking of Chang'an, it is prosperous and beautiful. But that has nothing to do with the North District!

The North End is like the city's garbage dump, synonymous with dirt, chaos, and lowliness.

Most of the residents here have lowly or merchant status, and the smaller half are ordinary people with good citizenship. There are also sin slaves, beggars, and low-life people.

They all huddled in the North District. The nobles in the East District could not see them and regarded them as nothing.

And they themselves, in the eyes of outsiders, were born in the imperial city.

Only they themselves know that in this majestic and prosperous city of Chang'an, they are no different from rats crossing the street.

The imperial guards cleared the way, but the people did not dare to come out and look around. They all peeked through the cracks in the doors and windows, naturally looking at Shen Dongsu.

Who is this woman protected by the Imperial Army? This is obviously a noble person, why did she come to the North District?

Before Shen Dongsu reached the restricted area, she felt heavy in her heart. The situation in the North District was worse than she expected.

She originally planned to ask the Imperial Guard to send leaflets about the ten anti-epidemic restrictions to every household, but suddenly she realized that 90% of the people here were illiterate.

What's the use of sending it to them?

When it comes to low-level propaganda, the Forbidden Army is not good at it. This is the job of the yamen servants. Compared with the cold-faced imperial guards, yamen servants who often deal with the lower class are more suitable for propaganda.

The government officials in this era are integrated with grassroots police forces such as urban management, public security, traffic police, and fire police.

She said to Jiasi: "Go and ask the commander of the North District to send two hundred government officials."

I also thought that if it was just official business, and if there were princelings blocking it, and the weather was freezing, I'm afraid those government officials wouldn't be willing to come, and even if they came, they wouldn't be able to do their jobs properly.

She added: "Tell the commander that if the errand is done, I will be rewarded heavily."

The biggest difference between her and the superior ladies is that she understands the sufferings of the people at the bottom and the human etiquette of the people at the bottom.

Just like the matter of government officials, if you give a thousand gold to the Chang'an order, it is better to reward a government official with two taels of silver, which will make the government officials do a good job.

The imperial doctors who came with her could use fame and fortune to motivate them to work hard, but the yamen servants could not use fame and fortune. Money was their best motivation.

Two hundred government officials were quickly in place, and with them was the Northern District Commander. As she expected, the commander appeared to be at the mercy of the princess.

But whenever she gave an order, the other party would shirk it. He also said that the prince just sent a message asking them to wait for orders. I wonder what the prince has to do?

Shen Dongsu sneered in his heart, but at the same time he did not bother with this man and asked him to keep the two hundred government servants.

The Northern District Ling left with a smile. He would rather spend hundreds of taels of silver to show his face in front of the prince than listen to Princess Ling's orders here.

But you can't be too perfunctory. After all, Princess Ling went to the North District on the emperor's orders.

Fortunately, she only wanted 200 yamen servants, so the magistrate happily sent 200 people over to enjoy the cold breeze. After seeing Princess Ling, who was said to be the most beautiful woman in Chang'an, she resigned.

As soon as the government officials arrived, the first order Shen Dongsu issued was that each person should be responsible for one workshop and publicize the ten prohibitions on epidemic prevention.

The imperial army inspects every day, and the ten houses that do the best are rewarded with two taels of silver by the yamen servants, and one tael of silver by the principals.

In unqualified districts, all employees will be responsible for cleaning streets and cleaning rivers and ditches.

The second is to count the population of each village. Regardless of men, women, old or young, including the beggars living in abandoned houses in the village, they must also be counted.

To prevent the common people from not cooperating, she said directly: "I will give porridge and herbal tea from now on. Only the registered common people can receive free porridge and herbal tea."

Once they heard that they would be rewarded with money if they did well, but if they didn't do well it would just be hard work. The government officials no longer felt downcast, and they received the leaflets with great energy and went to promote the work themselves.

Although the government officials find it a little troublesome to count the population, they will definitely cooperate fully if the people can receive porridge and medicine after registration!

There are only one hundred and twenty squares in the North District, and there are still eighty government officials left to enter the restricted area with her.

If the North District is dirty and chaotic, then this restricted area is a complete hell on earth.

She, the imperial physician, government officials, and the guards from the Fourth Band put on the linen clothes from the Imperial Hospital, put on masks, and entered the makeshift restricted area.

There is no trace of snow here anymore, only the lime spread by the Imperial Army.

In the temporary houses made of wood and straw, those who could still move around were locked.

There were shouts scratching at the door: "I'm not sick! I'm not sick! Let me out!"

Patients who have lost the ability to move are lying on the ground or lying on the ground, moaning weakly and unable to even cry.

As long as they find someone walking in front of the door, they will crawl out, squat on the threshold, and beg: "Help me, help me..."

There are more than a thousand patients, but the doctors are only a dozen civilian doctors who were forcibly recruited by the imperial army.

Their own situation is similar to that of patients. Their task is not to prescribe medicine, but to confirm whether the patient is alive or dead.

Every hour they were inspected one by one. If a patient was found dead, they were wrapped in straw rolls and dragged away by the Forbidden Army.

A layer of white lime was spread on the room, and new patients were admitted.

Although she was wearing a cotton mask, Shen Dongsu still felt that her breath smelled of blood and dead bodies.

If the plague was really spread by the queen in Chang'an City, she hoped that God would open her eyes and allow the queen to be infected with the plague and imprisoned in a restricted area.

Have a taste of this miserable death.

The only good thing is that Chang'an City is rich in materials. This restricted area is built in the city, not like it is built in the mountains, and the mold is quite large.

A maximum of five patients can live in a room, not 180 people together. That way the infection will spread faster.

Now she only needs to instruct the imperial guards to classify the patients into mild and severe cases, and then improve the sanitary conditions and disinfect them, which saves a lot of things.

To be honest, before she stepped into the forbidden area, both the imperial doctor and the forbidden army still felt that this petite Princess Ling was in trouble.

He came to gain fame and reputation for King Ling.

She must have walked around the North District, and then found a clean place to live in. She sent the imperial army to escort the imperial doctor to see patients every day.

The plague was cured, and she had done a great job. If it can't be cured, she has come to the North District in person, who can find fault with her?

Until she actually stepped into the forbidden area in person, she even ignored the objections of the officials and allowed her to rest first and be examined by the imperial doctors.

Instead, someone prepares a clean room, sprinkles quicklime, boils medicinal tea, takes out the medicine box, and then someone brings the patient.

At the same time, thirty-two imperial doctors consulted at the same time, and each one was assigned a royal guard to protect the safety of the imperial doctors and write down the cases of the patients in detail.

What these imperial doctors didn't expect was that Princess Ling gave each of them a medical box and taught them how to use the tools inside.

They were amazed by the first piece, a round object that hung on both ears and could be held in hand.

Princess Ling introduced: "This is called a stethoscope, which is designed to listen to heart and lung murmurs. The most important thing in this epidemic is cough, and this is the most suitable for listening to the condition of the lungs."

There was also something with a thread needle on the front of the bamboo tube, and the princess said: "This is a syringe, which can extract pus from the body. There are big and small ones. Even if there is water in the abdomen, it can be extracted."

There is also a round crystal piece surrounded by a silver ring. This is obviously the most valuable of all items, because there are only three of them.

One for Princess Ling, one for Xu Yuanqing, and one for the eldest Dr. Xuan.

Dr. Xuan looked down instinctively and almost fell down in surprise. Xu Yuanqing quickly picked it up with quick eyes and hands.

Princess Ling said: "This thing is called a magnifying glass. It can not only see clearly the symptoms of the patient. It can also see clearly the lesions of the patient's blood, excrement and other things."

There are not many magnifying glasses at present, and the craftsmen of Prince Ling's Mansion are making them overnight. We take turns using these three.

In addition, Princess Ling also issued a strange order, which was to send people to prepare fruits and vegetables that were infected with penicillium, and to collect old mustard juice pickled by ordinary people.

Her arrangement actually made these imperial doctors feel a little more at ease.

I don’t know whether it was because Princess Ling entered the restricted area with them, or because Princess Ling looked confident.

In short, the imperial doctors were no longer lifeless, but devoted themselves to their work seriously. Suddenly, they had the idea that they might be able to find a cure for the plague.

He cured the plague in Chang'an and became famous in history!

After Shen Dongsu made arrangements, he formally examined the patients, bringing in patients with milder symptoms first.

Even if the symptoms are mild, the face is sallow and the muscles are thin, and the mouth is sore and yellow water flows.

The initial symptom is diarrhea, followed by cough. Everyone's symptoms are different, and some may lead to prolapse and dehydration.

Some coughed so hard that they coughed up blood. No matter what the symptoms are, after being pulled into the restricted area, they enter vertically and exit horizontally.

Before developing a specific medicine, Shen Dongsu first prescribed several prescriptions to treat coughs, diarrhea, and sores based on the different conditions of the patients.

Then he discussed the prescriptions with the imperial doctors and checked the records of plagues in this dynasty to see if the prescriptions at that time could be used.

She also issued a new order, that is, people who died of illness could no longer be taken to mass graves and buried casually, but cremated.

From the moment she entered the North District, it felt like she had returned to the epidemic prevention battlefield in her previous life. She was so busy that she wished she had a clone.

Tsukimi went from protecting the princess's safety to being responsible for the princess's diet and daily life.

Because Shen Dongsu always forgets to eat, and eating soup and water is a waste of time.

Yue Jian, a girl who only knows how to wield a knife and a gun, was forced to learn how to steam steamed buns and make nutritious porridge.

After the food is warmed, the princess is urged to eat at regular intervals. As for sleeping, Shen Dongsu sleeps up to two hours a day.

The lights in her house stayed on all night, and she devoted herself to fighting the plague in the North District.

Ling Moxiao was her strongest backer in the East District, providing whatever supplies Princess Ling asked for, including medicine, food, money, manpower, and all kinds of supplies.

If the court dared to delay, he would personally go to the Ministry of Household Affairs. The Ministry of Finance was too slow, so he used the power of Prince Ling's Mansion to buy and acquire.

And Mrs. Jiang, who knew that Princess Ling had gone to the North District to treat the epidemic, sent someone to tell Nanny Ji before Prince Ling could find her.

She had listened to Princess Ling's instructions and stocked up on a lot of medicinal materials. If Prince Ling needed them, she could send them over.

In addition to providing support to Shen Dongsu, Ling Moxiao also wanted to investigate the source of the plague. He had no clue before.

After Shen Dongsu's reminder, he followed the water route and checked the Lu family's slave ship. The results were really accurate once checked.

The first few infected patients indeed entered the capital by water and on the Lu family's slave ship.

In this way, it proved the two people's guess that the person behind this was the Queen!

Ling Mo Xiao did not tell the emperor about this immediately because he had no evidence. There is no evidence to accuse the queen of spreading the plague in Chang'an.

I'm afraid even the emperor thought that this was a crazy move he made because Princess Ling went to the restricted area.

He couldn't alert the snake. The Queen must have thought that he didn't have a clue if he told the Emperor.

The emperor will definitely interrogate the queen, and then the evidence will be gone.

At the same time, Ling Moxiao thought about something, if the queen wanted to trap Dong Su in the North District, so as to force out the family behind Dong Su.

The queen must have made preparations in the North District a long time ago. If she goes crazy, the entire North District will be buried with her.

Then Dongsu is in danger! There must be a way to keep the Queen from going crazy.

Soon Ling Moxiao thought of one person, and that was Chen Xingzhen.

Chen Xingzhen did indeed escape from Youzhou. The reason for his escape was more shameless and ridiculous than fleeing in the face of battle.

The first time he climbed onto the city tower, the Tatars provoked him, and shot long arrows tied to the scalps of Daxia soldiers at the city tower.

The scalp happened to fall on Chen Xingzhen, and at the same time he also saw the body picked up by the Tatars with their spears.

It is said that Chen Xingzhen was so frightened that he peed on the spot. By this time, the reputation of him and the prince as ‘brothers with the same head’ had spread to Youzhou.

The soldiers called him directly from behind, and Chen Xingzhen discussed his escape with the personal guards sent by the Chen family that night.

At this time, Mr. Pang had arrived in Youzhou, and under his instruction, Chen Xingzhen was allowed to escape.

Mr. Pang's original plan was to spread Chen Xingzhen's name as a deserter throughout the world. The Chen family's reputation plummeted.

But Ling Moxiao now feels that he has other uses.

What's even more fortunate is that due to the closure of Chang'an, Chen Xingzhen has not been able to contact the Chen family until today.

Instead, it fell into the hands of Ling Mo Xiao.

Immediately, Ling Moxiao sent people to secretly send Chen Xingzhen to the North District.
