Uncle Huang loves me to the bone

Chapter 88 Sudden Accidents

Wei Shu stretched out his hand and slowly retracted his fingers, as if doing so would keep that smile.

It's a pity that in the end I only caught a wisp of wind coming in from the skylight.

"Little fox, I take back what I said. You have never been clever. You are really smart."

After walking out of the cell, Yu Qinghuan quickly went to find Liu Tingye.

"Princess, why are you here again?" Liu Tingye raised his head from a pile of documents, stood up, and saluted with his hands in hand.

Yu Qinghuan even skipped greetings and asked straight to the point: "Let me ask you, who are the people living in the south of the city?"

Liu Tingye said: "There are people from all three religions and nine streams. The poorer families in Pingcheng are all concentrated in the south of the city."

Yu Qinghuan asked again: "So, where do the rich and powerful families live?"

Liu Tingye said: "They are all concentrated in the east of the city."

Yu Qinghuan asked: "How is the epidemic situation in the east of the city?"

Liu Tingye said: "There is no one infected in the east of the city for the time being."

Yu Qinghuan's eyes lit up: "That's it."

Liu Tingye said in surprise: "Princess, do you have an idea?"

Yu Qinghuan said: "Well! Go and prepare these things immediately and distribute them to healthy people."

Yu Qinghuan explained everything to Liu Tingye in detail, and then returned to Jinglan Courtyard.When she arrived, Changsun Tao was sleeping soundly. She just sat by the bed and waited for several hours before Changsun Tao woke up leisurely.

"Princess, do you still dare to come to see me? It seems that you have already made up your mind." The first thing Chang Sun Tao did when he opened his eyes was to accuse her.

Yu Qinghuan quickly accompanied her with a smile and admitted her mistake with a very sincere attitude: "It was a last resort. Next time, try to be more thoughtful and avoid such a sudden attack."

"Do you still want a next time?!" Changsun Tao rubbed his temples, but obviously, his condition was much better at this time.

"King Qi, don't be upset yet, I have something important to say." Yu Qinghuan said, "I have found the source of the epidemic."

Changsun Tao showed a hint of joy on his face: "Really?"

Yu Qinghuan nodded: "People's memories sometimes make mistakes. I was misled by my own memory. It wasn't until just now that I figured everything out. Previously, I always felt that the tricky thing about this poison is that as long as the poisoned person is close to others, With close contact, the toxicity will spread like a plague, and even poultry and livestock are not immune. But this is not the case.”

Changsun Tao stood up, sat on the couch and said, "Don't be anxious, speak slowly. Could it be that it's not the kind of poison your grandfather said?"

"It is indeed that abominable poison!" Yu Qinghuan said, "But because I was still young when my grandfather died, I didn't remember many clues." Changsun Tao said: "Please tell me in detail."

Yu Qinghuan said: "This poison is not spread through contact, but through mosquitoes. On the way to Pingcheng, Wei Shu and I slept in the wilderness for several nights. At that time, Wei Shu often threw some anti-mosquito plants to I, but because I was always on guard against Wei Shu, I refused to use the things he gave me. As a result, I was often bitten by mosquitoes. However, even though Wei Shu was in the same environment as me, I was not able to use the things he gave me because of the mosquito repellent. It was done properly, so there was no infection.”

Changsun Tao said: "You mean that Wei Shu knew from the beginning that mosquitoes were the real culprits in spreading this epidemic?"

"I think so." Yu Qinghuan continued to tell Chang Sun Tao the conclusions of his investigation, "I just asked Mr. Liu and learned about the distribution of the epidemic. The places where the epidemic is most serious are the areas where poor farmers live. , I think the reason for this problem is that ordinary people do not pay much attention to hygiene and are not able to prevent mosquitoes, which leads to the breeding of mosquitoes, and the mosquitoes fly around among them, spreading the poison everywhere. As for Those richer families must be very particular about their daily lives, and the places they live in are specially treated to be free of mosquitoes and other things, so no one has been infected with the disease so far."

Changsun Tao said: "It is late May at this time, and the epidemic broke out more than a month ago, but Qizhou is located in the north, and the weather is not too hot in April. There must not be many mosquitoes. How could it be?"

Yu Qinghuan said: "Yes or no, you can determine the authenticity by giving it a try."

"If this is the case, I may know some information about this poison." Changsun Tao said, "In the early years, I once guarded Southern Xinjiang for a period of time. I heard that the climate in the south of Southern Xinjiang is hot and humid, and it rains all year round, so the trees are abnormal. The lush greenery has led to rampant mosquitoes and widespread miasma. Local people also often suffer from a disease called 'water poisoning' or 'bone-breaking fever'. This disease is spread through mosquitoes."

Yu Qinghuan said: "Jingzhou is located in the north and is extremely dry. How was this 'water poison' discovered by my grandfather? And why did it break out in Qizhou?"

Changsun Tao's expression was full of anger. After a while, he raised his eyes and looked at Yu Qinghuan: "I will find out about this matter. I want you to prepare an effective antidote as soon as possible. Can you do it?"

Yu Qinghuan said: "As long as we understand the crux of the problem, the prescription is not difficult to solve. I have previously ordered Mr. Liu to distribute some mosquito repellent drugs to healthy people. However, there are too many people who are sick. Even if we recruit the entire Pingcheng Herbal medicine is not enough."

Changsun Tao said: "As for the medicinal materials, I have ordered people to rush to other states and cities to purchase them. If nothing happens, they will be transported to Qizhou soon."

Yu Qinghuan asked: "Where is the food?"

Changsun Tao said: "I have also sent people to buy it."

Yu Qinghuan said: "King Qi, I know that you must have thought about the countermeasures for post-disaster reconstruction, but if this epidemic is not a natural disaster but a man-made disaster, will those people have any plans? For example, in terms of medicinal materials and Tampering with food."

Changsun Tao said: "If it was done by one of our own, we should not take the next step. The nature of this behavior is already more serious than rebellion. If we do it again, we may be exposed. If it is an outsider, they have not yet cooperated with Daqin." This king has the ability to compete with others."

What if it was the person on the throne who did it?He has the power and the ability to do whatever he wants, doesn't he?
If he is really so crazy and crazy, he has thousands of people, so what does it mean to sacrifice some of them?
But these are not issues she should care about, nor are they issues she is capable of caring about.

These are things that Changsun Tao, a king, should worry about.And she just needs to do her own thing well.

"Since you have a plan, I will cooperate with you." Finally, Yu Qinghuan said this.

Liu Tingye was extremely efficient in his work. He had distributed mosquito repellent medicine to the people within one day. Cang He and Cang Wu also led their men to separate the sick and healthy people. In just a few days, the land was devastated and mourned. The scene no longer exists.

Due to the effect of mosquito repellent drugs, the speed of the spread of the epidemic has also been greatly reduced, and the momentum has been curbed.

Everything is getting better. If the heavy rain after the summer had not set off waves in the Qishui River and overturned the ships carrying food and medicinal materials, perhaps they would have been able to lead the people out of this disaster soon.
