Chu Heng, neither humbly nor arrogantly, first explained the cause of the incident clearly and reported it to Emperor Xuanming. He then continued, "Although this accident was an unexpected event, it serves as a warning. Food poisoning is a dangerous matter. I humbly request that the Emperor have Imperial Physicians from the Imperial Hospital collaborate with civilian doctors to research food poisoning. They should then list in the official newspaper all the foodstuffs encountered in daily life, to inform the populace through the yamen, thereby preventing such unforeseen disasters from occurring again."
Emperor Xuanming, hearing how he did not mention official newspaper positions at all, but instead resolved the matter through meticulous details, felt a mix of emotions.
He looked towards Elder Zhong and asked, "Minister Zhong, what do you think?"
