Chapter 486 Wen'an's illness is serious
Zhu Youlang attaches great importance to the epidemic, which highlights his usual style, which is stability, accuracy and ruthlessness.
Since the outbreak of the plague, although it is related to the stubbornness of the people in Nanjing, it is inseparable from Zhu Cixuan's improper handling.
Zhu Cixuan is still too young and too steadfast, but he doesn’t know that some people are more and more serious than you dare not care about.
With experience in epidemic prevention last time, Zhu Youlang is more comfortable to deal with.
First of all, masks have been mass-produced, which plays a great role in epidemic prevention.
Zhu Youlang issued an order to distribute masks to the people of the city for free. Even if they are not in the quarantine area, namely Dongcheng and Nancheng, they must wear masks throughout the journey when going out.
If you do not follow the measures to deal with the violation of epidemic prevention regulations, the minority of the situation will be imprisoned and the worst of the situation will be considered dead.
Those houses with key isolation must be strictly isolated, and those who dare to go out without authorization must be killed immediately.
Although Zhu Youlang is a benevolent king, he is also a ruthless person. After killing the chicken to warn the monkey last time, he never thought that anyone would dare to challenge the imperial power and challenge the epidemic prevention regulations.
Then Zhu Youlang sharpened the knife to see if it was his knife fast or the necks of those provocative people were hard.
Although the imperial court is not short of money now after taking over Susong, Yangzhou, no one will think that it is too much money.
These people are giving money with them, wouldn’t they be sorry for Zhu Youlang if he doesn’t accept them?
Taking advantage of this epidemic, we can not only make the right statement but also warn those unruly people who are the heaven of the Ming Dynasty.
If you dare to offend and provoke God, it will naturally be a dead end.
Of course, the hygiene habits of the people in this era are really bad.
This needs to be solved urgently.
After two years of hard work by Zhu Youlang, the Ming army had basically formed the habit of not urinating or defecating anywhere.
But that is because of the requirements of military discipline and military regulations.
But there is no such constraint for ordinary people.
The advice of the court and the government alone is of little use. After thinking about it, the legislation should be legislated. Only by writing these into the laws of the Ming Dynasty will the people be afraid of it from the bottom of their hearts.
The collapse of thousands of miles begins with an ant hole.
These small details seem to be unimportant, but if you don’t pay attention to the accumulation of them, it will be terrible.
The momentum of the Ming Dynasty is now very good, and Zhu Youlang does not want to fail due to the epidemic.
...
...
About two days later, the Ming army controlled the entire city of Nanjing.
Any place where the epidemic occurs is sealed, and any form of going out is strictly prohibited.
However, there have been more than a dozen times when wealthy families make trouble, and they are immediately stopped by the Jinyiwei and the Hu Ben Army. The person who makes trouble was taken to prison for crimes. For a moment, the wealthy families in the city were trembling, and the fear of being dominated by His Majesty the Emperor came back.
His Royal Highness has a very soft-working style, but His Majesty the Emperor is not soft-hearted.
All the rich children who were provoking trouble were asked to beheaded, and their heads were hung on the Nanjing city wall to display.
In this way, no one dared to violate the orders of the court again.
In any house where sealed houses are kept honestly at home and quarantine.
Anyway, someone will send them water and food on time. Since they can't starve to death, they will be isolated honestly.
Zhu Youlang also attaches great importance to the handling of the bodies of people who died of plague.
In the past, things were usually buried deep, but Zhu Youlang issued an order to cremate.
Only high temperatures can completely kill the virus to prevent future troubles.
The spreading ability of a strong infectious disease like plague is very strong, and deep burial may not be able to completely suppress the spread of the virus.
In this era, epidemic prevention mainly relies on mobilization and execution. Once it spreads, it will be basically impossible to make a comeback.
Zhu Youlang wrote an epidemic prevention manual and asked officials to learn it all, and the people should also provide them with popular science.
Preventing problems before they happen is the best strategy.
Overall, it is better to have an outbreak now than in winter. If a plague breaks out in winter, it will be easier for the virus to survive, and it will be difficult to eradicate it.
But now it is the turn of summer and autumn, and as long as you can make up your mind to sacrifice part of the economy, you will definitely be able to extinguish the epidemic.
Any large-scale gathering during the epidemic prevention period has been banned.
In order to set an example, Zhu Youlang also canceled the court meeting.
This kind of thing is originally a formality. Emperor Jiajing and Emperor Wanli have not attended court for more than ten years. The government can operate normally.
As long as you read the memorials and review them on time and be clear about the government, the world will be in chaos.
What's more, Zhu Youlang did not intend to not attend court for a long time. He just avoided large-scale gatherings during the epidemic.
When the epidemic is over, we will resume morning court.
During the epidemic, Zhu Youlang met with some important officials to discuss national policies alone, and if necessary, he might hold some small-scale meetings of less than ten people.
Having the truth means to do the best and the lower ones. The emperor sets an example, and there is no reason for others to gather people to cause trouble.
Just as the epidemic prevention work was steadily advancing, a bolt from the blue suddenly came.
Wen Anzhi fell ill.
In Zhu Youlang's impression, Wen Anzhi's body has always been very tough.
Although he is already in his seventies, Wen Anzhi is actually in good health and rarely suffers from diseases like wind and cold.
This time I suddenly fell ill. According to my family's reports, the condition was very fierce. I asked the doctor to treat him, but I asked him to prepare for the funeral directly.
This made Zhu Youlang unacceptable for the moment.
Wen Anzhi is very important to him, and such an important official should have seen the day when the Ming Dynasty revived.
Zhu Youlang immediately took the imperial physician with the prince and visited Wen'an's mansion despite the danger.
The eunuch led by Han Miao naturally tried his best to dissuade him.
The reason is nothing more than the fact that the emperor is a body of a thousand gold and cannot easily be taken into danger.
Now Master Wenge cannot rule out the infection of the plague. What if it is transmitted to the emperor, wouldn’t it be a nightmare for the Ming Dynasty?
But Zhu Youlang did not think that Wen Anzhi would be infected with the plague.
The reason is also very simple. First of all, Wen Anzhi has been entering the palace these days and has close contact with the prince.
If Wen Anzhi was infected with the plague, the prince would definitely be infected too.
The prince was infected, so Zhu Youlang would naturally not be spared.
Zhu Youlang and Zhu Cixuan are not at all now, which proves that Wen Anzhi's disease is not contagious.
If Zhu Youlang didn't go to visit him in person at this time, he would be a little ruthless.
Zhu Youlang repeatedly insisted that Han Miao was naturally not good at persuading him, so he had to order people to prepare the car, and the Jinyiwei and the Hu Ben Army led the way to protect the car.
Wen Anzhi's mansion is not far from the imperial city. In less than a stick of incense, the emperor's car arrived outside Wen's house.
Zhu Youlang got out of the car with a hurried look, and Han Miao hurriedly stepped forward and knocked on the door.
The housekeeper of the Wen family opened the door and saw that it was the emperor, and he was completely stunned.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
He fell to his knees and cried, "My master, he is almost out of reach."
Although Zhu Youlang was prepared in his heart, he was still a little uncomfortable when he heard this.
"Hurry, let me go and see it. Let the imperial doctor treat Wen Qing for a while, maybe there may be a turning point."
