Chapter 307: good thing

Chapter 307 Good thing

"That's pretty good!" Xie Zhiwei was very pleasantly surprised, "Mom, you are so smart!"

Yuan smiled, "I'm not so smart, Bailing bought it from the outside, saying that there are shops in the city selling this kind of 'mask'. I bought two and came back. I heard You go to the epidemic area, thinking that the ones bought outside are not clean, and the cotton cloth is not breathable, so you boil and dry the gauze and make it yourself.”

"I don't know what kind of shop it is? It's such an ingenuity, but how much money is it?" Xie Zhiwei asked.

"It's not cheap. It costs a penny each. How much effort does it take? Two pieces of gauze or cotton cloth the size of a palm, three or two stitches, cost a penny." Yuan said dissatisfiedly, pointing to the needlework skip There are a dozen or so masks in the box, "Look, I've made so many for you in just a short while."

Xie Zhiwei looked at these masks and thought for a while. After thinking about it, she asked for a pen and paper, sat in front of the lamp and began to write quickly.

After about a cup of tea, Xie Zhiwei finished writing. She put away the paper, put on her cloak, and returned to Qijianzhai.

The old man was still awake and was looking through books under the lamp. When he heard that Xie Zhiwei was here, there was no reason why he should not be there, so he hurriedly asked Shen Shuang to invite her in.

"Grandfather, my granddaughter has a few ideas about this anti-epidemic relief, and I want to discuss it with my grandfather." Xie Zhiwei said, and handed over the paper in his hand.

The old lady said "Oh", and took it over. After reading a few lines, her expression froze, and the more she read, the more surprised she became. Finally, after reading it, she looked at Xie Zhiwei in shock, "Miss Wei, you figured this out by yourself. of?"

Xie Zhiwei shook his head, "Of course not, grandfather, our ancestors had many good ways to deal with these natural disasters. There are also many records of these in the books left by the Cui family. My granddaughter usually reads a lot of them. It came in handy."

"That's right, when the books are in use, you will hate less, so you must read more at ordinary times." Xie Tiao pointed to the stacks of books on the table, "Grandpa is holding Buddha's feet temporarily, so it is not as useful as you usually accumulate."

Xie Tiao shook the note in his hand, "These strategies of yours are just right now, and they will be presented to the emperor by my grandfather tomorrow morning."

The next day happened to be the Great Court Meeting, and the plague was rampant in Juzhou, and there were already rumors outside. Yesterday, the eldest daughter of the Xie family asked for an order to go to Juzhou, and the king of Chenjun was going to Juzhou first. These outsiders didn't know about it, but the court already knew about it.

The news about the plague in Juzhou was first reported by Xiao Changxuan to the emperor. It came from the Ning family. The young master of the Ning family came back from the south and passed through Juzhou. Sending it to the capital can be regarded as a meritorious service.

Although at this time, Ning Wenji, the young master of the Ning family, was walking outside the city gate of Juzhou, it did not prevent Xiao Changxuan from being qualified to stand in the court and listen to the government.

Xiao Changxuan was dressed in a bright yellow prince's court dress, and there was a hint of color hidden in his expression. He clenched his fists involuntarily. This time, he must take down the job of defense and relief.

You don’t need to take risks to enter the city, you only need to lead troops to guard the gates of Juzhou and the passages leading to various places, and make contributions easily. Naturally, such a good thing cannot be taken by Xiao Xun.

The emperor was enthroned, all the officials saluted, and after shouting Long Live, Li Baozhen raised his male duck voice, "Excuse me, I have something to do, and I have nothing to do!"

"I have a memorial!" Xie Tiao, who has never liked to be in the limelight, stood up, holding a memorial in both hands, and raised it above his head, "Your Majesty, last night, after my granddaughter returned home, I drew up a few reports. For this anti-epidemic disaster relief."

I don't know when, the word "anti-epidemic", like "mask", has become a word on everyone's lips.

The emperor gave Lu Yan a wink, and Lu Yan hurriedly stepped down, took the memorial from Xie Tiao, and presented it to the emperor with both hands.

The emperor did not answer, and said, "Ah Yan, read it!"

Lu Yan unfolded the memorial and saw the beautiful pavilion body. He couldn't help but glanced at Xie Tiao. His soft voice sounded in the hall, "...the following four things must be done in the fight against the epidemic and disaster relief: First, the people who suffer from the disease, Shekong Mansion is for medicine. If one or more people in the family are sick and infected sometimes, even if they are healthy, they are not allowed to go out for a hundred days. The imperial court will give them grain and rice; Evil, those who are fumigated, those who discard ashes on the road, must be punished; the imperial court sent people to clear the canals, dredge the canals, prevent the accumulation of pollution, dig wells and springs widely, do not make drinking turbid, and drive away diseases thirdly, the imperial court organized clothing shops in the city, and those who served in the army and those who had nothing to do, stepped up to make 'masks', and sprinkled Qingwen detoxification powder into the masks to prevent the epidemic; fourthly, the corpses in Juzhou, etc. Take measures such as incineration, deep burial..."

Lu Yan recited two cups of tea time before finishing the memorial. After the emperor heard it, his heart relaxed, "Xie Aiqing, as the minister of Dali Temple, is able to do his best to deal with this plague. I am deeply gratified."

"Your Majesty, these are all drawn up by the granddaughter of the minister, not the credit of the minister. The emperor, the minister and the granddaughter have a conversation, and they are deeply inspired. I ask the order to lead this errand of epidemic prevention and disaster relief, and do my best for Dayong."

The emperor was deeply surprised. Xie Tiao was not the kind of person who took the initiative. He couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at Lu Yan. The emperor can sit back and relax."

Yeah, Xie Tiao is not a hospital person, why is he so proactive? The emperor laughed immediately, "I'm sure!"

"Father!" Xiao Changxuan really hated Xie Tiao to death, this old man jumped out at this time, didn't he just want to miss this opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune? ruined his good deed.

"Father, my son is willing to go!"

"Nonsense, what are you going to do?" The emperor said dissatisfiedly, "You have never run an errand alone, this time is not a trivial matter, if you want to go, you can also make such a charter for me!"

The emperor raised the memorial in his hand and threw it on the table in dissatisfaction.

"Father, my son, as a prince, eats jade grains and golden watermelon every day, wears silk and satin, and the people make offerings. Yu Dayong has no merits, and my son is ashamed. I also ask my father to fulfill me."

The emperor was stunned. Is his son sensible?

For a moment, he was very moved. Looking at his son kneeling under the jade steps, the emperor was filled with emotion for a moment, and asked, "Go, what can you do?"

Xiao Changxuan cast a sideways glance at Xie Tiao who was next to him, "Father, I have to learn how to do things. I can't do anything else. It's always okay to help Master Xie."

Xie Tiao also glanced at Xiao Changxuan, feeling as disgusted as eating a fly. He didn't know much about the princes, but he knew that Xiao Changxuan had always had trouble with his granddaughter, so why should he take Xiao Changxuan on business?

It's just that this is not up to him.
