Chapter 200 Treatment
In just one night, Mother Xu and Chunxi were too sick to get up. Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao were really panicked. If they had been hoping for luck before, now they were sure that it was really a plague.
Ye Xiaoxiao was afraid that her mother would worry, so she comforted her,
"Mother, don't panic. Even if it is really a plague, don't be afraid. I have a way."
Liu Yunniang's face was pale, her body was trembling slightly, and her eyes were full of fear and worry.
"What should we do? Xiaoxiao, what should we do?"
Mother Xu is the wet nurse who has taken care of Liu Yunniang since she was a child. For so many years, she has been by her side and has always taken care of her like a mother.
But if it is a plague, Mother Xu is old and it might be difficult to deal with it!
Seeing her mother panicking, Ye Xiaoxiao was also very nervous, not as calm as she appeared. This was ancient times, where a plague was said to have wiped out a city. How could she not be afraid? But she tried to calm herself down.
"Don't be afraid, mother. There will be a way. Have you forgotten that we still have our baby?"
Ye Xiaoxiao's mind was working rapidly. In the space, there were all kinds of precious medicinal herbs and treasures, including the Qingxin Pill.
It is said that Qingxin Dan has the effect of detoxifying, removing toxins from the body and strengthening the physical constitution, and it should also play a certain role in the plague.
Ye Xiaoxiao waved her hand, and a medicine bottle with the words "Qingxin Dan" written on it fell steadily into her hand.
She looked at the crystal clear pill in her hand and prayed silently in her heart that it would work.
The two hurried to Qiulin Courtyard where Xu Mama and Chunxi were. Liu Yunniang wanted to persuade Ye Xiaoxiao not to go in, but Ye Xiaoxiao said to Liu Yunniang,
"Mother, I once saw a method to cure the plague in an ancient book. Maybe we can give it a try. You forgot that I have the elixirs in the space to protect my body. Even the plague can't hurt me."
Liu Yunniang knew Ye Xiaoxiao's ability. Seeing her determined look, she felt relieved and said quickly, "What's the solution? Xiaoxiao, tell me quickly."
Ye Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and said slowly,
"First, we need to isolate the patients to prevent the plague from spreading further. Then, we need to keep the environment where the patients live clean and tidy and ventilate it frequently. At the same time, we give the patients some heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs to strengthen their physical fitness."
Liu Yunniang nodded.
"We can do all of these, but where can we find the medicines that can clear away heat and detoxify?"
Ye Xiaoxiao took out the Qingxin Pill,
"Mother, this is a kind of elixir I found. It may have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. We can give it to Mother Xu and Cui Xi first to see the effect."
Liu Yunniang looked at the pill, feeling a little hesitant.
"Can this pill really cure the plague?"
Ye Xiaoxiao said firmly,
"Mother, we have no other choice but to give it a try. I believe it will work. Also, mother, if it is really a plague, I'm afraid we have to report it to His Majesty as soon as possible. Otherwise, once it spreads, the consequences will be disastrous. However, we have a patient in our house, so I'm afraid the general's people will have to find a solution for this matter."
Liu Yunniang thought for a moment: That's right, now, she might not be suitable to enter the palace. Xiao Mu is not here, and she doesn't have any other familiar people in the capital. Oh, there is one more person, Mo Feng? Mo Feng is someone close to Xiao Mu, he must have a way to report to His Majesty.
Liu Yunniang hurriedly called Mo Feng over to discuss how to report the matter to Emperor Jingxuan.
After a while, Mo Feng, who received the message from Liu Yunniang, hurried over. When he heard that it was a plague, Mo Feng was shocked.
He looked solemn, and said with a folded hand.
"Madam, this matter is of great importance. If it is really a plague as the young lady said, His Majesty must be informed as soon as possible so that countermeasures can be taken."
Liu Yunniang frowned slightly.
"I also know that this matter is urgent, but there is a patient in our house now, so it is inconvenient for me to report to the palace. Do you have any way to convey this matter to His Majesty?"
Mo Feng thought for a moment, a little hesitant.
"Madam, the general has a way to pass on the message to His Majesty, but if this letter from me reaches the palace, I'm afraid that the matter between you and the general will not be hidden from His Majesty."
The message about the lady was sent to the palace through the general's secret letter. Doesn't that confirm the affair between the general and the lady? Mo Feng was a little undecided for a moment, worried that it would be inconvenient for Madam Liu.
Liu Yunniang frowned slightly, knowing that Mo Feng meant well, but at the moment, none of this mattered. Besides, His Majesty must have known about it long ago, otherwise he would not have thought of granting the marriage.
"Don't worry about that. It's more important to pass on the message first. The refugees outside the city will probably arrive in the capital soon. Let His Majesty make arrangements early!"
Mo Feng replied, "I understand. Madam, rest assured, I will handle this matter carefully."
He was also panicked. How could a plague suddenly break out? He hadn't heard any news of the plague in the surrounding towns.
So Mo Feng took action immediately and ordered someone to deliver the letter to the palace.
At the same time, Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao took good care of Mother Xu and Chunxi in Qiulin Courtyard.
They followed Ye Xiaoxiao's method to isolate the patients and keep the room clean, tidy and ventilated.
Ye Xiaoxiao personally fed Xu Mama and Chunxi the Qingxin Pills and kept an eye on their conditions.
As time went by, the conditions of Xu's mother and Chunxi did not improve significantly, which made Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao even more anxious.
They kept pacing around the room, their eyes full of worry. Liu Yunniang held Mother Xu's hand tightly, silently praying that she would get better soon.
"Xiaoxiao, is this Qingxin Pill really useful? Why haven't Mother Xu and Chunxi's conditions improved at all?"
Liu Yunniang's voice was filled with anxiety.
Ye Xiaoxiao was also very anxious, but she still tried to stay calm.
"Mother, let's wait and see. This Qingxin Pill is said to have the effect of detoxification, and it may take some time to work. Besides, we can't just rely on this one kind of pill, we have to think of other ways."
Liu Yunniang nodded, but her heart was still filled with uneasiness.
She looked at Mother Xu's haggard face, and her heart was full of heartache. Mother Xu was one of her closest people, and she couldn't bear to watch her suffer.
Imperial Palace, Yangxin Hall.
In the palace, after leaving court, Emperor Jingxuan received news about the plague from Mo Feng. His face suddenly darkened and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.
He was well aware of the horror of the plague. Once it spread in the capital, the consequences would be disastrous.
There is no conclusion on this matter yet, so it is not appropriate to publicize it.
He immediately ordered people to summon Song Ben'an, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and the prince of Anbohou into the palace.
Before the two of them left the palace, they were summoned back by His Majesty, and they were extremely panicked.
"See Your Majesty."
Emperor Jingxuan looked at Song Ben'an, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and the prince of Anbohou, who were kneeling on the bluestone slabs, with an unpredictable expression.
"There is a suspected plague outside the city. This is related to the safety of the people in the capital. Do you know about this?"
Emperor Jingxuan asked with a serious look.
Song Ben'an, the governor of Shuntian Prefecture, and the prince of Anbohou were both shocked.
Song Ben'an hurriedly stepped forward. He was the prefect of Shuntian Prefecture. If this really happened, he would be the one who had overlooked it. He bowed and said,
"Your Majesty, I am guilty of this. I have never heard of this before. If there is indeed a plague, we must take countermeasures quickly to prevent the spread of the epidemic."
Song Yiyun, the son of Marquis Anbo, looked at his majesty's expression and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, there was still a chance to salvage the matter.
Emperor Jingxuan nodded slightly and said in a deep voice,
"There is no conclusion on this matter yet, so it is not appropriate to publicize it so as not to cause panic among the people. Song Ben'an, you should immediately send people to investigate outside the city. There are a large number of refugees in the suburbs of Beijing. Be sure to confirm whether there is really a plague and the severity of the epidemic. If there is any situation, report it immediately. You should know the importance of this matter."
Song Benan responded respectfully,
"I obey your command. Your Majesty, rest assured that I will do my best."
Emperor Jingxuan looked at the Prince of Anbo again.
"Prince Anbo, you must immediately organize personnel to strengthen the guard of the capital and strictly prohibit any suspicious persons from entering the capital. If you find anything unusual, immediately move them to the suburbs. At the same time, prepare an isolation facility that can be used at any time if the plague is confirmed."
Prince Anbo said solemnly,
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will do my best."
The two men took the order and left. Emperor Jingxuan sat on the dragon throne with a frown on his face, filled with worry.
He was well aware of the destructive power of the plague. If it could not be controlled in time, the capital would fall into chaos.
Song Benan quickly gathered his men and led the team out of the city.
Along the way, he was feeling uneasy, praying that it was just a false alarm.
However, when they arrived at the place where refugees gathered outside the city, they saw the haggard and sickly people, and a bad premonition arose in their hearts.
Song Ben'an carefully observed the symptoms of the refugees and asked about some of their situations, which made him feel that the matter was not simple. He saw some refugees coughing constantly, looking pale and weak.
Some people have even fallen into a coma and their condition is very critical.
He did not dare to delay and immediately sent someone back to the palace to report to Emperor Jingxuan.
Ben'an's heart was filled with worry. He knew that if this was really a plague, the capital would face a huge crisis.
In the palace, Emperor Jingxuan was anxiously waiting for news from Song Benan.
He kept pacing in the imperial study, feeling full of uneasiness.
He knew that once the plague broke out in the capital, it would bring great disaster to the people. He had to take measures as soon as possible to control the development of the epidemic.
Back at the Liu residence, Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao were still worried about the health of Mother Xu and Chunxi.
They kept trying various methods, hoping to find a cure for the plague. Ye Xiaoxiao remembered some folk remedies she had seen in ancient books and decided to give it a try.
She asked someone to find some herbs and boiled them into a medicinal soup according to the methods in ancient books.
Then, she carefully fed it to Mother Xu and Chunxi. Liu Yunniang watched nervously, her heart full of anticipation.
However, the conditions of Xu's mother and Chunxi did not improve.
Their bodies became weaker and weaker, and their coughs became more and more severe. Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao's hearts sank to the bottom, and they didn't know what to do.
Just then, Mo Feng brought a piece of news.
He said that the court had already begun taking measures to strengthen the guard of the capital and prepare quarantine facilities. At the same time, they were also looking for a cure for the plague.
After hearing this, Liu Yunniang and Ye Xiaoxiao felt a little relieved.
Fortunately, His Majesty has taken action, so there should be no more chaos in the capital.
The only solution now is to find a way to treat the plague as soon as possible. Ye Xiaoxiao does not dare to rely on ancient epidemic prevention measures, so she can only study it bit by bit from the knowledge she has learned from space and modern times.
So, Ye Xiaoxiao decided to enter her own space again to look for more medicinal herbs and treasures.
She hopes to find a truly effective way to cure the plague and save Mother Xu, Chunxi, and the people of the capital.
Ye Xiaoxiao searched carefully in the space. Even Tuan Tuan, who was always naughty, seemed to sense the danger these days and followed Ye Xiaoxiao obediently.
Ye Xiaoxiao believed in the wisdom of the ancients. She searched through Linlang Pavilion, hoping to find a magical medicine or method that could cure the plague.
She searched every corner and finally found an ancient medical book in a corner.
There is a method of treating plague recorded in medical books, which is said to be very effective.
Ye Xiaoxiao picked up the medical book excitedly. The ancient pages seemed to carry countless hopes.
Her eyes were focused and eager as she read carefully.
She was pleasantly surprised to find that the medicinal herbs needed for this method were not difficult for her to prepare.
Although the various precious medicinal herbs in her space are not inexhaustible, they are enough to meet temporary needs.
However, the joy was short-lived, and her thoughts were soon pulled back by the heavy reality.
However, one of the important reasons why ancient plagues were difficult to treat quickly was the extreme shortage of medical resources.
In this era, the output of medicinal materials is really limited and the distribution is extremely uneven.
Many precious medicinal materials are often firmly in the hands of a few powerful people, making it difficult to prepare and use them on a large scale.
Once a plague breaks out on a large scale, ordinary people will simply not be able to afford these expensive medicinal materials.
They can only struggle under the double torture of poverty and disease.
And those rich people who can afford to buy medicinal herbs may not be able to find a good doctor to treat them in time.
After all, when the plague was raging, the doctors could hardly protect themselves, and their numbers were far from enough to cope with such a large group of patients.
Furthermore, people’s understanding of the plague is seriously insufficient, which is also a key issue.
In this era, everyone was terrified when hearing about the plague. When the plague broke out, people would often fall into extreme panic and instinctively flee in all directions. They did not know how the plague spread, nor did they know how to protect themselves.
This blind escape behavior will not only accelerate the spread of the plague, making the epidemic more difficult to control, but also bring great chaos to society.
In order to control the situation, the imperial court often took some tough measures to control the people who were fleeing everywhere.
In extreme cases, tragedies may even occur in order to prevent the plague from spreading further.
When Ye Xiaoxiao thought about this, her heart ached.
She seemed to see those helpless people struggling under the shadow of the plague and families being torn apart by the disease.
If possible, she wished she could cure these people and free them from the pain. However, she also knew clearly that her own strength was not enough.
She needs more people to join in fighting this terrible plague.
She needs the support of the court, the cooperation of doctors, and the understanding and cooperation of the people.
