In the afternoon, after Yun Ruoyue treated the last patient, Chu Xuanchen and Magistrate Fang and others returned from the next county.
As soon as the county magistrate walked in, he hugged his stomach and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I have a stomachache, so I'll come back as soon as I can."
With that said, he hurriedly ran towards the toilet.
Seeing Magistrate Fang¡¯s appearance, Yun Ruoyue felt that he must have drank unclean water and contracted a disease such as dysentery.
At this time, Chu Xuanchen had already seen her after walking in.
He hurriedly walked towards her and said, "Yue'er, are you done with your work today?"
"Well, Xuan Chen, you came back just in time. Let me tell you, I received a lot of dysentery patients today." Yun Ruoyue said worriedly.
"Dentery patients? There are so many? What is going on?" Chu Xuanchen asked.
Yun Ruoyue said: "I suspect they drank unclean water. By the way, Magistrate Fang also had a stomachache just now. Could he also have dysentery?"
"It seems that when he went out with me to do errands, he had diarrhea many times. I thought he had a bad stomach!" Chu Xuanchen said.
Yun Ruoyue frowned, "Even County Magistrate Fang is suffering from dysentery, so it seems that things have become serious!"
"Princess, what's dysentery? What are you talking about?" At this moment, Magistrate Fang had fastened his belt and ran towards the two of them quickly.
Yun Ruoyue looked at him and found that his face was pale and his whole body was weak, so she said: "County Magistrate Fang, did you drink unclean water while you were outside today?"
Magistrate Fang said: "Unclean water? There shouldn't be. I only drank some mountain spring water outside today. This mountain spring water should be the cleanest."
"Not necessarily. If this mountain spring water has been polluted by livestock and human garbage, then it will be equally unhygienic." Yun Ruoyue said.
"Ah? I thought that as long as it was mountain spring water, it must be the most hygienic. I drank a lot just now, no wonder I have a stomachache." Magistrate Fang regretted.
Yun Ruoyue said: "County Magistrate Fang, you must have dysentery, because I received many patients today. They all have dysentery and have the same symptoms as you."
"Dysentery? Oh my god, Princess, what should I do now?" When Magistrate Fang heard this, his face suddenly turned pale.
Yun Ruoyue hurriedly reassured her: "Don't worry, I have medicine here that can cure dysentery. However, you must be temporarily isolated for the next few days."
"Okay, I understand, thank you Princess." Magistrate Fang said hurriedly.
Yun Ruoyue said: "Xuanchen, even County Magistrate Fang has been infected with dysentery, which shows that the health situation in Longxing County is very worrying. We need to go to the streets immediately to see what is going on."
"Okay, that's what I meant." Chu Xuanchen said, looking at Magistrate Fang, "Magistrate Fang, after you take the medicine, take a good rest first, and the princess and I will go take a look on the street first. "
"Okay, then I'll ask Zhou Qing to accompany you." Magistrate Fang said.
"Yeah." Chu Xuanchen nodded-
Then, after Yun Ruoyue gave the medicine to treat dysentery to Magistrate Fang, she and Chu Xuanchen and others went to the streets of Longxing County and began to find out the reasons why the people got dysentery.
When she walked to the street, she realized that the street was very dirty. The villagers always drained water randomly and discharged all the dirty water into the street.
Once this sewage flows into the wells, it will pollute the wells. People who drink the dirty water from the wells will naturally become sick easily.
Then, Yun Ruoyue and Chu Xuanchen came to a reservoir specially designed to store water.
As soon as they walked to the reservoir, they saw many people washing clothes in the reservoir, and many villagers even let their cows and horses bathe in the reservoir.
At this time, the livestock were having fun in the reservoir. Seeing such a scene, Yun Ruoyue was very shocked.
"Oh my god! This is everyone's source of drinking water. How can these people let their animals bathe in it?" Yun Ruoyue said angrily.
Chu Xuanchen also looked sulky, "No wonder everyone gets dysentery. It turns out that even the water sources are polluted. Don't these people even understand the simple truth of protecting water sources?"
Yun Ruoyue's eyes deepened. No wonder everyone said this was a barbaric land. It turned out that everyone's behavior was so barbaric.
She said: "No, Xuan Chen, we can't let them continue, otherwise more people will get sick."
"Yes, if we don't want everyone to get sick, we must have a clean water source. If we want this water source to be clean, we must formulate laws to protect the water source so that they don't dare to mess around." Chu Xuanchen said.
"Well, in addition to protecting water sources, we also need to separate clean water from sewage, so that people can drain dirty water where it should be drained, instead of dumping it on the street and polluting wells. Not only So, during this period of time, we have to send people to protect these water sources and not let anyone get close, lest they dirty the water again." Yun Ruoyue said.
"Okay, let's go back first." Chu Xuanchen said-
After returning to the county government office, Chu Xuanchen quickly summoned the officials and told everyone about the matter.
After everyone heard that the people contracted dysentery because the water source was contaminated, they were very worried.
Chief Liu said: "Your Majesty, so many people are suffering from dysentery. This situation is very serious and can kill people. So how should we change the water source and make it clean?"
Chu Xuanchen said: "Sewage is the primary cause of disease. In order to prevent the water source from being polluted, the princess and I have thought of several ways. First, we must legislate to protect the water source. We must let the people know that the water source can only be protected. No pollution, and violators will be severely punished. Secondly, we must send people to guard water sources or wells, prohibit people from going into the river to wash their clothes, and prohibit livestock and people from bathing in the river. Thirdly, we must do a good job in zoning water sources. Clean water sources cannot Mixed with dirty water, we need to legislate to prevent people from discharging dirty water into the streets, and build a special drainage channel for people to use. Finally, we need to use quicklime or alum to adjust the water quality. There are many methods With concerted efforts, I believe that in a short time we will be able to drink clean water and everyone will no longer get sick."
"Okay, Your Majesty said it well, then I will quickly draft the law and then implement the law so that the people will abide by it." Zhou Qing said.
Chu Xuanchen nodded, "Okay, these laws must be implemented not only in Longxing County, but also in the other six counties, so that everyone knows the importance of protecting water sources."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Zhou Qing said.
Chu Xuanchen said: "Okay, it's not too late to do that. You guys should do it quickly."
"Yes." After Zhou Qing finished speaking, he quickly went to draft a decree.
The next day, Zhou Qing drafted a law to protect water sources.
Then, he ordered people to copy these laws many times and post them on the streets to attract people to see them. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
