Chapter 191 Princess Ling’s magical methods
Yue Jian especially likes to watch the princess heal patients. Whenever this happens, the princess' body seems to glow with a layer of light.
The monks in the temple plated the Buddha statue with gold, so that the Buddha's light would shine.
But the princess was not plated with gold. Even when she was treating illnesses and rescuing people, she wore special doctor's uniforms and dressed simply.
No gold or silver accessories were worn on the whole body, but there was a layer of radiant light.
This light made the people in the North District regard the princess as a living bodhisattva, and made Chen Xingyao, the prince's mortal enemy, obey the princess's words.
These thousand forbidden troops did not find it troublesome at all to travel south in the ice and snow. They were all overjoyed to be assigned by the emperor to escort Princess Ling.
Also let them, the personal guards of the palace, be willing to use their lives to protect the princess.
When Shen Dongsu was treating the wounded soldiers, the imperial army found a military letter from the clothes he took off.
Sure enough, he was the one delivering the letter!
Just at this time, officials from Sizhou arrived. When they opened the military book on the spot, they couldn't help but take a breath.
Without waiting for Shen Dongsu to ask, he said directly: "There is trouble again in Yangzhou." At the same time, he handed over the military letter.
Shen Dongsu took it and took a look and realized why the official showed it to her directly. The contents of this military book were also related to her.
The imperial doctors who set off earlier than her did arrive in Yangzhou City, but they were arrested before they started to treat the plague.
These people were the Lu family's retainers, tenants, tribesmen, and some rebels composed of small gentry members who were related to the Lu family. They spread rumors in Yangzhou.
He said that the imperial court had no specific medicine at all, and the imperial doctors sent were not here to save people, but to send them to hell.
If you don't believe it, go to Minzhou. The sick people were gathered together by the government to die. They were still breathing and were cremated.
Some people didn't believe it: "Didn't you say that Princess Ling would also come? Your majestic princess would come to harm ordinary people like us?"
The rebels laughed wildly: "Princess Ling will come! Do you really believe it? This is obviously a cover used by the imperial court to deceive people!"
"Just to deceive you, go to the restricted area of the government and wait for death!"
"If you want to survive, you can only have a chance by joining our team and going to the government to grab medicine."
The sick people were already desperate and ignorant of the government, but when they heard these people talk about the restricted area in Chang'an.
Carloads of patients are driven there to be cremated; ashes cannot be found after death and are dumped directly in the fields to be used as fertilizer; anyone who wants to escape will be captured and beheaded.
If you don’t believe me, go find out how many people were killed at Caishikou in Chang’an last year!
They introduced another Taoist priest and used the remaining power of the Lu family to get some medicinal materials. As long as they joined them, the Taoist priest would administer the medicine.
It really threatened some people in towns and villages where the plague was serious, and soon the number of this team exceeded 10,000.
At this time, it snowed heavily for many days in a row, and the evil people used this to deceive the people. This was a disaster sent by God.
Daxia is about to end. If you want to survive, you have to save yourself. You can’t rely on the court!
They found out that the imperial doctor was coming, and that they had brought a lot of food and medicinal materials, so they lurked on the road.
Before the imperial doctor's team arrived in Yangzhou City, they were kidnapped and taken to an old manor of the Lu family.
Then he wrote directly to the Yangzhou magistrate and asked him to give him food, medicinal materials and silver. Otherwise, these imperial doctors would be killed.
The prefect of Yangzhou was shocked. No wonder they waited outside the city for several days before the court's disaster relief team arrived.
I hurriedly sent people to clear out and rescue people, and then I discovered that there were many spies from the Lu family even in Yangzhou City.
And the people along the way regard the soldiers as enemies and only believe in those evil words.
The magistrate of Yangzhou called for reinforcements, but soon after the soldiers set off, heavy snow closed the mountains.
Now the Lu family rebels are becoming more and more emboldened, spreading rumors everywhere, and the only way to survive is to join them.
The Yangzhou government was unreliable, and the imperial court was even more unreliable.
They also snatched the special medicines brought by the imperial doctors. Only obedient patients would be given medicines to relieve their symptoms.
After verifying that the special medicine was real, they did not dare to kill the imperial doctor, but instead hijacked the imperial doctor to give them medicine.
The letter is short, but the chaos in Yangzhou and the fact that the imperial doctors are in crisis are very clear.
Sizhou officials hurriedly sent for troops to ask for reinforcements. This time they must uproot the Lu family's influence.
Shen Dongsu, on the other hand, was worried about the situation of the imperial doctors. She quickly found two blind spots in this letter.
First, the people were bewitched by the Lu family's evil ways, and the evil ways even made this rare heavy snow a punishment from heaven.
Only by showing that you are more like a god than an evil person will the people be convinced.
Second, the Lu family said that Princess Ling would not go, saying that the court did not really want to control the plague, but just wanted to kill the sick people.
So as long as she and the Forbidden Army appear, I believe some people who have been deceived will recognize the truth.
She looked at the design drawing of the hot air balloon. If she could fly to Yangzhou in a hot air balloon, what better way to appear as a god than this!
Of course she is not a fairy, but if she exposes the evil ways, the people will definitely believe her.
After a while, the frostbitten soldier woke up and told the situation in Yangzhou intermittently.
Hearing that there were rebel forces in Yangzhou City, Shen Dongsu felt that he could not delay.
If the rebels capture Yangzhou City, it will be useless if she arrives with a thousand imperial troops.
Only if she appears before the rebel forces develop, can she play a key role.
When she revealed her plan, Jia Si was a little surprised. He thought Shen Dongsu had heard about the chaos in Yangzhou City.
I will postpone going to Yangzhou until the Sizhou army suppresses the rebellion and Yangzhou is safe before going to control the plague.
Unexpectedly, the princess was more courageous and wanted to lead a thousand imperial troops to quell the rebellion!
She still has reasons and evidence, and the people believe in evil. As long as she comes down from the sky and breaks the lies of the evil, the people will naturally no longer be bewitched by the Lu family rebels.
The Lu family's rebels had no fighting power at all. She could kill three of those thin noble sons by herself, let alone these battle-hardened Imperial Guards!
Killing them is like killing baby chickens!
The most important thing is to wait for the Sizhou Army to slowly put down the rebellion, and watch the rebels become more and more powerful.
If they kill one or two more disobedient imperial doctors and sacrifice flags, what will they do?
She has a comradeship with those imperial doctors! We won the battle in the Chang'an restricted area together, so we couldn't watch them die!
She didn't dare to vouch for other imperial doctors, but Xu Yuanqing would never be obedient.
If the rebels kill the imperial doctor Jieqi, they will be the first to kill him!
Then Shen Dongsu gave another reason that Jia Si could not refuse:
"I am the royal concubine of Prince Ling, how can I be afraid of a few rebels?"
"It's not my face that gets spread out, but Prince Ling's face! If the prince were here, he would definitely support my decision!"
Seeing that Jia Si was still hesitating, he was such a cheerful young man. Since he followed her, he has almost turned into a rigid old man.
Shen Dongsu rolled his eyes and took out the pile of ten epidemic prevention taboos with the seal of King Ling on them: "I won't ride in the hot air balloon, okay!"
"But if these things are sent to the sky and sprinkled on the city of Yangzhou, do you think the people will trust the government or the rebels?"
Jia Si imagined that scene, flying into the sky, only the legendary gods could do it.
No matter how ordinary people fly to the sky, in the eyes of the people, they are undoubtedly gods!
And this person shouted from high in the sky, "Princess Ling went to Yangzhou to control the plague," and at the same time dropped these leaflets.
Let the people know that the court has not abandoned them, and the rumor that Princess Ling is coming is true!
No matter how loud the Lu family rebels shout, no matter how seductive the evil ways are, the people will understand who they can trust...
Jia Si became excited and nodded heavily: "Okay! Let's build this first..."
"Hot air balloon." Shen Dongsu reminded.
"Build a hot air balloon first, but the princess must not fly in it."
"My subordinates went to Yangzhou alone, dropped leaflets, and worked with the Yangzhou officials to meet the princess."
Shen Dongsu said instinctively: "No! It's not safe for a hot air balloon to fly for the first time!"
Jia Si smiled helplessly: "But just now the princess kept saying that she wanted to ride by herself."
Shen Dongsu choked, she made things by herself, tested by herself, and she was responsible for anything.
But when it comes to the safety of other people's lives, how can she take it for granted!
It was Yue Jian who reminded the two of them: "Well, should we wait until the hot air balloon is built before we discuss this issue."
Isn't it too early to think about the business of chicken laying eggs and eggs laying chickens before I buy the eggs?
Shen Dongsu and Jia Si looked at each other, and one of them said, "I'll draw the detailed design."
One said: "I'm buying materials."
I am not embarrassed if I focus on one person, but others are embarrassed.
Anyway, Yue Jian felt quite embarrassed. She touched her nose and said, "I'll make a pot of hot tea for the princess."
She is not good at cooking, but she is quite good at making tea.
Jia Si quickly bought back the materials, including a large amount of Huohuan cloth and Menghuo oil. He also brought the master whose family had been making Huohuan cloth for generations.
The owner's family name was Wei, and he said that this batch of cloth cost no money and was considered a gift from the Wei family to Princess Ling.
Shen Dongsu could tell at one glance why he was here. His eyes were red, his face was pale, and he was breathing heavily.
She didn't wait for the other party to ask, and said: "I, the princess, accept these gifts. You bring all your family members, and I will take their pulse together."
The head of the Wei family was overjoyed and believed the rumors in the world that Princess Ling was really a miracle doctor! Just one look and you knew he was here for medical treatment!
Shen Dongsu first inspected the fire cloth, and asked Yue Jian to take the maid to cut it into the size she wanted, and then sewed it into a huge hot air balloon.
It would be better to use the fierce fire oil after it is refined, but there is no time to refine it now, so I can only make do with it.
Then let A4 find craftsmen to make special items such as stoves with adjustable flames, baskets, pull ropes to control the direction, hemp ropes, sandbags and other special items.
Not long after, the Wei family arrived in a carriage. There were sixteen members of the family, and the oldest one was the head of the Wei family, thirty-eight.
Even Tsukimi noticed something was wrong. Is there no elderly person in this house?
Shen Dongsu once again brought up a fact that shocked the whole Wei family: "The Wei family has been making fire-alkane cloth for generations, and it is short-lived. Few people live to be forty years old, right?"
Upon hearing this, the head of the Wei family knelt down directly. As soon as he knelt down, the whole family followed him.
"Princess, please help me!"
Yue Jian, Jia Si and others were stunned. They didn't know there was such a thing, but the local post officials in Sizhou were very calm.
It seems that everyone in Sizhou City knows about the short life of the Wei family.
Judging from the clothes of this family, it seems that they are extremely wealthy, but both adults and children are not healthy.
This was a wealthy but short-lived family, which naturally aroused heated discussion among others in the local area.
Shen Dongsu let the whole family come in, and she felt their pulses one by one. She knew they had lung disease without even making a detailed diagnosis.
Burnt cloth of this era was woven from pure natural asbestos fibers.
If you stay in asbestos mines for many years, your skin will be injured, and if your lungs inhale asbestos dust, you will naturally develop lung diseases.
Not only in this era, but also in future generations, because the working environment is too simple and the protection is not in place.
Capitalists regard cheap labor as human beings. How many ordinary people work in such quarries are suffering from lung diseases.
She discovered that several of the Wei family's children under ten years old had lung disease, and she couldn't help but ask, "How can we add all the children to the mine?"
The head of the Wei family's eyes widened. This was their family's secret. The location of the mine and the production of the fire cloth were absolutely confidential!
In the past, it was passed on from son to daughter, and from daughter-in-law to son-in-law. However, in recent generations, the population has declined seriously, and daughters have also adopted husband-in-laws.
Only members of the family can enter the mine, not even the family's long-term workers.
Unexpectedly, Princess Ling revealed this secret that the Wei family had kept for hundreds of years!
If the Wei family could only be regarded as a local wealthy family, he would have doubted whether Prince Ling had already inquired about the situation of the Wei family.
The head of the Wei family once again sighed, Princess Ling is really a magician! Just by meeting them once and taking their pulse, I had a pretty good idea of the Wei family's situation.
When Mrs. Wei arrived, her eyes were filled with tears, and she asked in surprise: "Princess, do you mean that you contracted this disease from entering the mine?"
Shen Dongsu looked confused: "Otherwise, how do you think you got it?"
They looked at each other and said a little sheepishly: "According to our ancestors, making firewood cloth is blasphemy to Zhurong, the God of Fire, so the family has been cursed by it for generations."
Shen Dongsu:......
No wonder a Taoist priest can confuse the people of Jiangnan. In this era, not only are all the people medically illiterate, they are also extremely ignorant.
Think about what happened to the original owner when he was in Shenjia Village. A fate of God killed the original owner.
Alas, this is an era of cannibalism!
She carefully educated the Wei family on the dangers of asbestos mines, and children were absolutely not allowed to enter.
Even if you go to work, you must take precautions, protect your whole body, wear special masks, and drink lung-clearing medicinal soup all year round, etc.
"There is no curse at all! Think about it, is there dust in the asbestos mine? Is it red, swollen and itchy when the skin comes into contact?"
"Then when you inhale, the dust is sucked into your lungs, how can it not cause great harm to your body?"
"I will tell you the truth, the three brothers of the Wei family have been exposed to asbestos for many years. Even if there is a panacea, it can only extend their lives. It is impossible to live long."
Mrs. Wei quickly knelt down and said, "I just ask the princess to save my child!"
The head of the Wei family also knelt down and said: "I know that I am not going to die soon, but I beg the princess to save my children and grandchildren!"
Shen Dongsu raised his eyebrows, and Yue Jian said for her: "If you treat the disease, treat the disease. If you keep kneeling and crying, the princess will not be cured!"
She learned this in the forbidden area. The people there were more prone to kneeling and crying than the Wei family. When the princess was impatient, she was the one who stopped her.
The Wei family stood up hurriedly, and Shen Dongsu lowered his head to write the prescription: "This is for the children, and this is for you guys with mild symptoms."
"As for the three brothers of the Wei family, they are no longer allowed to enter the mines. If you drink this prescription for a long time, I cannot guarantee that it will not be a problem to live past the age of forty!"
The Wei family was overjoyed. They lived past the age of forty, which was longer than any previous family leader!
The Wei family members all died miserably. In the later stages, they coughed up black blood and could not lie down, but could only half-recline.
His whole body was skinny and skinny, his breathing sounded like a saw, and then he couldn't take a breath and died.
Not to mention living past forty, as long as he can make his death more uncomfortable, he will be his benefactor!
