Chapter 95 The Plague
After a catastrophe, there will be a catastrophe. This is the same principle throughout the ages, and it has always been like this. If the plague spreads rapidly in Chang'an City, then Chang'an will be full of bones.

Old man Lu was also given a white cloth, which was hung on his face to cover his mouth and nose. Jiang Yunqing also hung a white cloth to cover his mouth and nose, and they went to Chen Wu's house.

Now here in Chen Wu's house, there are still many farmers in Jiangjiazhuang outside the yard, and everyone is not talking about it deeply, but they are all concerned about what is going on with Chen Wu now.

The folk customs in Jiangjiazhuang are simple and simple, mainly because Jiang Yunqing and Li Huan'er take the lead. If there is something wrong with sleeping, everyone will help.

"Go away, go away, you just have a high fever, what's there to see." After Old Man Lu came, everyone consciously gave way to Old Man Lu.

As soon as he entered, he saw Chen Wu's daughter-in-law and Chen Wu's old lady crying out of breath. Jiang Yunqing hurriedly asked the doctor next to him what was going on now.

"It's too hot, and there are a lot of little red spots on my body." After the doctor saw Jiang Yunqing, he shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, "There was something wrong the day before yesterday, and then it kept burning last night, and the soup was poured down. If it’s less, it’s useless at all.”

Then the doctor put aside the clothes on Chen Wu's body, and saw that many red spots on Chen Wu's body had turned into blisters, and many blisters burst and turned into pus flowing on his body.

"God!" The doctor immediately yelled, and the whole person collapsed on the ground, shouting in panic: "This, this is smallpox, smallpox, hell, hell, I just touched him!" People, will encounter smallpox, ah, "

smallpox?

Upon hearing that it was a fatal disease, Chen Wu's daughter-in-law and Chen Wu's mother cried louder, and those people outside also panicked.

In this era of backward medical treatment, if you want to cure smallpox, you have to depend on the destiny of God. There is no magic medicine. According to historical records, from October of the fourth year of Zhenguan to autumn of the fifth year of Zhenguan, millions of people died because of smallpox. .

"Uncle Lu, since it's smallpox, there are three of us in our family, we accept our fate." Chen Wu's daughter-in-law cried in despair.

Chen Wu's old lady also cried in despair: "I'm afraid we can't avoid it, we can't go out and harm everyone, let's go, let's go, you all go, seal this door, it's God who wants to kill us Ah, our family accepts their fate."

"Ah..." Old man Lu didn't know what to say at this moment. There is also such a tradition that if someone has smallpox in any house, the door of that house should be sealed and set on fire. But if he is allowed to go He couldn't do this, but he couldn't do it. This is three lives.

"Find someone who is quick-witted, and immediately go to the Chang'an County Government to report that someone in Jiangjiazhuang has the plague, and then go find a few powerful doctors. Tell the truth, see if anyone is willing to come to Jiangjiazhuang to help. Thank you very much.

People who have no infection and have never touched them will go to my house to get white cloths. After wetting the white cloths, they hang them on their faces to cover their mouths and noses. Also, Jiangjiazhuang can only enter and is not allowed to exit. Farm households are not allowed to go out, and are not allowed to visit. If anyone finds a high fever that persists, they will be sent to Chen Wujia for centralized treatment immediately. "

Then Jiang Yunqing looked at Chen Wu's daughter-in-law and old lady and said, "It's not that far yet, if you think about it, don't always think about dying, you'll be alive."

Then those farmers also went back one by one.

Looking at these terrified farmers, Jiang Yunqing could only sigh helplessly.

Everyone understands that if the smallpox really spreads, not only Chen Wu, but also many other families will be ruined by the plague. In the end, only the mass graves will be left, without even a ranking. There will be.

........................

Li Er has been sleeping very poorly recently, very badly. He always dreams about his eldest brother Li Jiancheng and his third brother Li Yuanji. He dreams that the two of them are explaining to him that they have also gone to the Hall of Hell to complain to the King of Hell and enumerate their "evil deeds". OK".

And when I was sleeping at night, I always felt that the souls of Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were floating around my dragon bed and looking at me, wanting to come over and pinch my neck at any time, so scared that Li Er didn't dare to shut up at all.

After such a few days, Li Er became a little listless, and he was in a trance, and he was worried when he went to sleep.

Huizhen of the Tai Hospital visited her several times, and also prescribed some soothing decoctions, but they had no effect at all.

British Duke Li Ji, formerly known as Xu Maogong, was born as a Taoist priest. It is a psychological effect, His Majesty scares himself, and the two of them think, can there be some good way to help His Majesty relieve his heart problems.

But after thinking about it for several days, the good solution was that he didn't think of it at all, but there was a huge crisis unfolding in Chang'an City.

In the [-] counties and [-] counties around Chang'an City, there are now six villages that have been reported about the plague.

This little bit of spread is like a single spark that can start a prairie fire, and the control is basically uncontrollable. The new Chang'an County Magistrate Chen An can only do it in a hurry, and there is nothing he can do if he gets angry.

Originally, I thought that my new official took office three fires, so that I could change the atmosphere in Chang'an City and make some achievements. Finally, the heavy rain stopped, but in the end there was a big epidemic, or a plague.

Now that the people's hearts are unstable, the court is also shocked by this.

But the imperial court also quickly arranged the Imperial Medical Office, let alone whether it is contagious or not, the medicinal materials are continuously sent from the Imperial Medical Office to the centralized treatment point for the plague.

Among the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty, more than 6000 people from Youwuwei, under the arrangement of General Guide Li Yueniang, strictly guarded the various traffic fortresses, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

But what affects people more than the plague is the gossip these days.

The five surnames and seven sects finally waited for the right time, and one by one began to add fuel to the fire, and counted this incident as the retribution of the Xuanwumen incident, plus Li Shimin's spirit is not good now, and he has no sleep at night. It was also rumored that Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji were dissatisfied with Li Shimin sitting on the throne, and those who died at Xuanwumen came back to seek revenge on Li Shimin.

The common people wanted to escape from Chang'an, but there were people stationed at every major traffic road, and the soldiers were armed with swords. Chen An was so eager to kneel down, begging the common people to stop making trouble, and go home first.

After the natural disaster, at this moment all human nature is exposed nakedly. There is sadness, sadness, helplessness, and a helping hand...
