Ye Zhen followed Xia Yaohua to the Pharmaceutical Storehouse. She wondered if she was mistaken. Not counting the medicinal herbs sent from the Medical Center this year, based on the number of medicinal herbs sent in previous years, it was impossible for the Huaijiang Medical Bureau's Pharmaceutical Storehouse to have so few medicinal herbs left.
"Are these all the medicinal herbs in the medical department?" Ye Zhen looked at the empty storehouse and the most common medicinal herbs. These were the most worthless common medicinal herbs. Most of them were used to clear heat and detoxify. There was not even a shadow of the medicinal herbs sent from the medical center before.
Compared with those sent by the medical center, these bags of medicinal herbs were not even a fraction.
Xia Yaohua whispered, "This is considered good. When we first came, there was not even a blade of grass in here."
Ye Zhen took a deep breath. "What about the medicinal herbs sent by the medical center?"
She liked to go to the medicine field when she was in the medical center, so she knew how many medicinal herbs the medical center sent to the Huaijiang Medical Department every year. Seeing this storehouse, she was speechless.
"The people here said that the imperial court never sent medicine at all. The storehouse has always been like this." Liu Yun whispered.
"Doesn't Doctor Qi think it's wrong?" Ye Zhen frowned. It seemed that there was something wrong with the Huaijiang Medical Department. She did not believe that Doctor Qi could not see it.
Xia Yaohua said, "How can Doctor Qi not see it? But even if he sees it, what can he do? The letter has been written, but there has been no reply so far. I only hope that there is nothing wrong. Otherwise, I don't know how to use these medicinal herbs. ()”
Ye Zhen walked into the storehouse to see the medicinal herbs. It was better not to look at them, but when she saw them, she felt a surge of anger. "Where did this come from? How could this be sent by the medical center? Did someone go to the mountain to pick it up temporarily? "
"This is still good. We have carefully selected them and they have been dried for a few days. When they were first sent, there were weeds in them." Liu Yun said.
"It seems that there are still people who can cover the sky in Huaijiang." Ye Zhen sneered coldly. Even the medicinal herbs sent by the imperial court dare to embezzle, not to mention the disaster silver for disaster relief.
"Burst the dam! Burst the dam! "
Suddenly there was a scream outside the medical center. A bolt of lightning in the sky seemed to split the world, and the rumbling thunder was louder than ever.
Ye Zhen was shocked and hurried out.
There were soldiers going in and out of the government office next door. The commoners who were hiding from the rain at home all came out to see what was going on.
"Quick, the dam has burst. Everyone, go to higher ground."
"The dam has burst! The dam has burst! "
The silent Huaijiang City seemed to wake up all of a sudden. Everyone was moving things into the attic. ♀
Huaijiang City's architecture might be different from that of the capital city. Most of the houses here were attics. Nowadays, most people were moving expensive things to high places.
"Oh no! Doctor Qi and the others are still on the other side of the dam. " Ye Zhen was shocked. Thinking of Huang Fuchen and Doctor Qi, she wondered if they could return safely.
"Xue Lin, I'm going to find Master and Doctor Qi." Ye Zhen said to Xue Lin, who had been guarding her.
"Princess, you mustn't! Right now, there must be chaos outside the city. The river bursting its banks is no small matter. You cannot leave the city. "Xue Lin immediately stopped her. How could he let the princess take such a risk?
Ye Zhen knew that it was dangerous outside the city, and the medical department in the city could not be short of manpower, but she was still worried about Huang Fuchen and the others.
Xue Lin immediately said, "Princess, it is better to let this subordinate go to them first. If there is any news, this subordinate will come back to report immediately."
"Yes, Princess."
By evening, the water on the street outside had reached their knees, and more and more people were taking refuge in the city. These people were from the villages outside the city. At first, the government would send people to settle them, but as the number of people increased, there was no place to settle them in the city, so they simply ignored them.
Ye Zhen stood under the eaves of the medical department, frowning at everything outside. The city was already flooded, and one could imagine what the villages around the dam had become. She was still very worried about her master and Doctor Qi, hoping that they could return safely.
"Help, help!" At this moment, Ye Zhen suddenly heard someone shouting for help.
It was a mother and son who had taken refuge in the city. The child looked seven or eight years old, but for some reason, he fainted in his mother's arms and did not move.
"Quan Fu, go and bring the child here." Ye Zhen said hurriedly.
Xia Yaohua and Liu Yun were bandaging the wounds of others. The medical department had taken in many people who were injured in the process of fleeing. Dai Mei and Quan Fu also came to the medical department to help.
Quan Fu brought the child over. The mother cried and cried, "Save my child, who can save my son?"
"Put him on the bed." Ye Zhen said to Quan Fu and immediately felt the child's pulse. As soon as she felt the pulse, she was a little shocked. She reached out and put her hand on the child's forehead. "Auntie, when did your child get sick?"
"I don't know, I don't know," the woman cried and shook her head. "I've been taking care of my husband these days. I just learned that the child is also sick."
Ye Zhen checked other parts of the child's body and had a bad feeling in her heart. "What's wrong with the child's father? Where is he? "
The woman cried and said, "I don't know. Many people in the vicinity of the family are sick. I don't know when he caught it. Doctor Qi went to see him but this morning he was not breathing. I wanted to hold a funeral for him but the flood rushed in. I had to leave with the child first."
Did Doctor Qi go out this morning to see a doctor in their village? This disease does not seem to be very easy to treat.
"Yaohua, is there a separate room in the medical department?" Ye Zhen asked Xia Yaohua in a low voice.
"Only the medicine storehouse is empty now. Some of the other rooms are flooded and some are already occupied." Xia Yaohua said.
Ye Zhen nodded gently and said to Dai Mei, "Go and clean up. Let the child live in the medicine storehouse first. You all put on masks."
Xia Yaohua was also a doctor. When she heard Ye Zhen's words, she immediately understood that the little boy's disease was different from others and may be contagious.
"I'll go and prescribe medicine first. You keep an eye on him." Ye Zhen said. She was worried that there were many refugees in the city who were sick like the little boy. If they had the same disease, she was afraid that it would spread faster.
There was also the village that the woman mentioned. If her husband was already dead and there was no time for him to be buried, now that he was washed away by the flood, she did not know where he would end up.
It was not until nightfall that Xue Lin came back with Huang Fuchen and Qi Jin. Huang Fuchen's clothes were soaked, but Qi Jin was unconscious. Her forehead was wrapped with a white cloth and stained with blood.
"Master, what happened to Doctor Qi?" Ye Zhen asked hurriedly.
"He was washed down when the embankment burst. He hit the corner of the wall and was almost washed away." Huang Fuchen whispered.
