[Red Mansion] Princess Ji

It was another brightly lit night in Prince Ji's Mansion, after Daiyu came back from the front hall, she sat down at the table, took only two mouthfuls of food before being taken away, she had no appetite at all.

Zijuan, who had just had a rest, came and saw Daiyu dragging her chin and closing her eyes to rest. She stepped forward lightly and took a piece of clothing for Daiyu to put on.

From Xueyan fainted to now, Daiyu has hardly rested, either arranging things, or after arranging things, then arranging other things. Guanshi Zhang and Nanny Chang are not in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but there are still many things to do Busy, there are more than 100 people, it is not easy to arrange them one by one.

Fortunately, the symptoms of this disease can be seen within seven days at most, and if there are no symptoms after seven days, then it can be avoided.

"Hmm... I fell asleep?"

"Girl, you should have a good sleep. If you have to worry about things, you have to sleep, right?"

"... What time is it?"

"Just after a while."

Just passed away?Daiyu lowered her eyes for a long while before she slowly came back to her senses, and nodded, "Well, let someone fetch water in, by the way, how is the snow goose, have you woken up?"

Hearing this, Zicuckoo nodded, "I did wake up once, but I was seriously ill, and I was in a daze. I said a few words to her and she fell asleep again."

Ever since I stayed with Daiyu with Xueyan, this is the first time I have seen Xueyan look like an eggplant beaten by Shuang. The whole person is wilting. I don’t know if this disease can be controlled. Now it’s scary. It's a lot to make Xueyan fall asleep so groggyly, but it's also good, so as not to wake up in pain.

Daiyu twisted the handkerchief, wiped her face, and immediately became more awake, and her sleepiness also dissipated.

Glancing out of the window, "How is the situation in each yard?"

"It's written on the note sent in, everything is arranged, and everything is done according to the girl's order." Zijuan took the handkerchief from Daiyu, and suddenly thought of something, "Girl——"

Seeing Zijuan hesitate to speak, Daiyu stared at her and couldn't help asking, "What's the matter? Do you want to tell me something?"

Zijuan stared at Daiyu, "Seven days later, the girl will move out of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion and live in another courtyard. Here in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, I'll just keep it!"

"...Zicuckoo."

"girl."

Daiyu shook her head, walked to the bed, reached out and took off the hairpin on her head, and said: "I understand what you mean, I am worried that I am weak and easy to be infected, but let me move out of Xiaoxiang Pavilion, leaving you and Xue The geese are here, impossible."

At the beginning, the two of them were crying in front of her window and almost died. Although Daiyu stared in a daze and nearly died, she still remembered the appearance of the two of them, and remembered that they followed her to the Lin Mansion, to the Wang Mansion, and all the way to the north. Come, come to Liangzhou.

How could it be possible to let Xueyan and Zijuan stay alone in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion at this time.

"I'm begging you, girl, you answered me this time, just this time, after you confirm that you have no symptoms of infection, move out from the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and wait until Xueyan recovers and the epidemic passes. I’ll move back when I’m done!” Zijuan stood by the bed, saw that Daiyu’s hair had been loosened, knelt down suddenly, and stretched out her hand to hold Daiyu’s hand, “Girl, just accept me this time, okay?”

Staring at Zijuan, Daiyu suddenly asked: "If you can stay, why can't I stay? You know Xueyan better than I knew her earlier, why can't I stay?"

"Girl, it's about time, I—"

"Zijuan, do you believe me?" Daiyu held Zijuan's hand, "The last time you knelt in front of me like this was when I just came out of the Grand View Garden. The whole house, after I found out, I was angry with you, but I was also angry with myself, and now you are like this, what do you want me to do?"

Hearing this, Zicuckoo was startled and stared at Daiyu, not knowing what to say for a while.

Sighed softly, "Okay, the three of us are the same, even though you never said it and didn't want to, you were the closest to me in the Grand View Garden, so I also treat you as my family. In this Liangzhou, I only know you two well, if you argue with me about the Xueyan matter, you will really tell me not to be a human being."

"I didn't mean that, girl, I just—"

"I'm just worried that I will be infected. Because of my weak body, even Hua Tuo will be unable to return to heaven when he comes back to life?"

Seeing Zijuan's expression after saying this, Daiyu knew that she had guessed right, but she also knew what she was worried about.

He stretched out his hand to help Zicuckoo stand up, "You're not sleepy, I'm sleepy, I'll go see how Xueyan is doing tomorrow, don't really get sick, I thought my weak body couldn't hold it, why is it?" She can't hold on anymore, with her temper, I'm afraid that Lord Yan won't accept her even if she sees her."

Hearing this, Zicuckoo felt a little more at ease, but couldn't help but feel worried.

When a snow goose fell, she was already flustered and worried. If Daiyu also fell, she would probably fall too.Seeing that Daiyu had already got under the quilt, with her back turned to her, she lowered her voice, "Miss, rest early, I'll go and see the snow geese, otherwise I won't be able to sleep."

I just hope that it won't burn up at night. If it burns up now, I will definitely not be able to sleep all night.

Daiyu didn't respond, she was so sleepy that she didn't even have the strength to agree, the moment her head touched the pillow, Daiyu felt her eyelids were heavy and she didn't have the strength to speak again.

too tired.

Gently pulling the door, Zijuan turned around and saw Ding An coming in the moonlight, the two stood facing each other, Ding An glanced at the door behind Zijuan, and winked at Zijuan.

Zicuckoo nodded, and the two of them went to another place.

"The princess just took a rest and refused to move out from the Xiaoxiang Hall."

"Wang Concubine looks weak, but she is actually strong. She has the same temperament, but she is not forced. If you insist on letting her move out, she might be angry with you." Ding An nodded and said, "How is Xueyan doing?"

"When I came out of her room just now, she didn't have a fever. It's better than watching it during the day, but I'm afraid it will recur at night. I've heard of the epidemic. , people are gone." Zijuan lowered her eyes after finishing speaking, "You said... can she survive the snow geese?"

For a long time in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Xueyan and Zijuan were always together, not to mention the rest of the time, and now seeing Xueyan lying there sick like a frosted eggplant, unconscious and lethargic , she only felt uncomfortable.

Ding An was taken aback when he heard the words, and thought it was inappropriate to reach out to comfort him. People would think that the two of them had a private tryst, which would damage Zijuan's reputation, so he said: "Don't worry, the epidemic this time has not been received yet Those who went to emergencies were still getting medicine for treatment in the clinic, but I searched for a whole day, but I didn’t get much.”

Hearing this, he diverted his attention and couldn't help but said, "What did you find? Is it the plague or—"

"Probably the plague."

"what!"

Zijuan exhaled softly, and quickly covered her mouth, "It turned out to be the plague. Doesn't that mean that the wells in the city can't be used? But if this continues, most of the wells in the city have the same source, and only a few wells come from other sources." , Now is the time for water, and every family uses a lot of water, how many wells are enough."

Once there is a shortage of water, there will be a fight near the wellhead because of how much water is fetched. If one person starts, the rest will definitely follow suit.

If someone makes trouble, the government will have officers and soldiers to persuade them, and it is time to make the trouble even bigger. By then, the epidemic may cause chaos in the entire Liangzhou city.

"I have already gone to the government overnight and asked the people in the government to guard the other wells so that there will be no more problems. This place in Liangzhou is different from other places. It is very hot. Although it is almost early autumn, once there is a water supply situation, the people It will definitely be affected, once the people are in turmoil and the government and military camps intervene, I am afraid it will be another disaster."

"Does the barracks know about this matter?"

Zijuan originally wanted to ask Ji Yuanlan if he knew, but on second thought, it would be safer to ask the military camp. If the military camp already knew, then Ji Yuanlan must have known.

"The military camp knew it earlier than ours. The military doctors are old doctors with many years of experience and wandering around the rivers and lakes for many years. They have seen a lot and responded quickly. They quickly isolated the infected person in a tent. In addition to treating him Except for the military doctor, the rest are all within three feet away." After Ding An finished speaking, he thought for a while, "It's getting late, you go back and rest first."

"...I don't worry about the snow geese, I plan to go see it again."

Zijuan shook her head, "I don't know if she's awake now or—"

Before he finished speaking, he heard a faint weeping sound, Zijuan was stunned, stopped talking, and listened carefully, suddenly felt that the voice was familiar, he was startled, suddenly looked at Xueyan's room, and took three steps. Take two steps to go there.

The snow geese must have woken up!

Pushing open the door and walking to the bed, I hurriedly lit another lamp, "You scared me and the girl, luckily you woke up, you woke up when you woke up, why are you still crying, isn't it good?"

Seeing Zijuan, Xueyan, who was sobbing and crying, couldn't help but burst into tears, "I, am I going to die? But I don't want to die yet. I still have a lot of things to worry about." I didn’t do it, I can’t even see whether the girl gave birth to a younger brother or a younger girl, I—”

"What nonsense! You are still alive and well, let you talk nonsense, what if you really let God hear that it has come true? Who are you going to cry to when you arrive at the Palace of the King of Hell!" Zijuan said angrily: "You just fell ill at the moment Now, my body is a little weak, take the medicine with peace of mind, follow what the doctor said, and you will be fine in a few days."

Ding An, who had been standing at the door, watched Zijuan patiently coaxing the snow geese, and a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes—I used to know that Zijuan was a measured and gentle person. How to speak.

Shaking his head and walking into the room, seeing Xueyan's expression of seeing a ghost, he rarely opened his mouth and said: "This time the epidemic should not be serious, it's just that more people are infected—"

"Why did you come in? Are you - aren't you afraid that I'll be infected? Sister Zijuan and the girl treat me like family members. You, you and I are just acquaintances. Don't blame me when you get sick." Xueyan hurriedly said: "Oh, you don't have to wait here if you want to wait for Zijuan. You two, Zijuan, go out quickly and don't stay in front of me."

Just as Zijuan was about to say something, Ding An shook his head to stop him, and immediately realized Xueyan's intention, but he didn't want her to stay here, for fear of passing on the disease to her.

As soon as she got up, she saw Xueyan's face suddenly changed, she seemed to be in a bad mood, she frowned tearfully, and suddenly twitched, so frightened that Zijuan was in a hurry, and directly pressed her down with the quilt.

"what happened!"

"No, it seems that the condition is getting worse!"

what?

Zijuan's heart tightened, wishing she could hug Xueyan right now, but she could only wrap Xueyan up with a quilt to keep her from convulsing too much and hurting herself.

"I'll invite the doctor." Ding made a decisive decision and immediately turned around and walked out. He walked faster than the people in the house came and went. Who would have thought that as soon as he crossed the threshold, he saw Daiyu casually wearing a coat. The clothes came out of the room in a hurry, and even the hair was casually loose.

The two bumped into each other. Normally, Ding's case would be taboo, but the matter was urgent, so he had time to say: "Xueyan's condition is getting worse, I'll go find a doctor first."

Daiyu felt a chill coming over her body, she tightened her clothes and nodded, "Hurry up and come back, don't delay."

No delay, really no delay.

Seeing Ding'an leave, Daiyu quickly grabbed her clothes and ran to Xueyan's room. Smelling the strong smell of vinegar, Daiyu walked to the bed and saw Zijuan bending over and pressing Xueyan with the quilt, her nose twitched. Sour, glanced at the medicine bowl that was still on the side, and immediately reached out to bring it over.

"You press her down, I'll take the medicine for her to drink first, it will last for a while."

"Girl, why did you come in!"

Daiyu, who was holding a medicine bowl, ignored Zijuan's words, just sat down beside the bed and carefully fed the medicine to the snow geese with a spoon. Come.

Seeing this, Zijuan sighed softly, and moved to the side, "Xueyan, she..."

"I will definitely be able to carry it through. She has been fine since she was a child. This time it is just a trick played by God. It will be fine in a few days. In a few days——" Daiyu finished softly, looking at the medicine in the bowl. There was not much left, so he put down the bowl and wiped Xueyan's face with a handkerchief, "Why did the disease suddenly get worse?"

Zicuckoo shook her head, "When she came in, she was still talking to me normally. She was worried about infecting me and Guard Ding. Let us go outside instead of staying here all the time. I just got up to go out, and I saw her like this."

Daiyu frowned, suddenly a thought popped up in her heart, she shook her head quickly.

No, you can't scare yourself.

You must not scare yourself.

When Ding An brought the doctor in, the doctor looked terrified, but after seeing Xueyan's condition, he quickly put down the medicine box and sat by the bed to diagnose Xueyan's pulse.

The three of them stood by, and Daiyu held her hands, trying to see something from the expression on the doctor's face from time to time, but except for the frown that was always frowning, there was almost nothing there.

"The disease is worsening, and now I can only increase the dosage so that she can sleep for a while, but I don't know the disease yet... the specific prescription can be suppressed, and the princess wants the medicine to cure her disease, and I'm afraid it will take a while. time."

Daiyu nodded, looking apologetic at the doctor, "I invited you directly to the palace in the middle of the night, because I was so frightened by the sudden illness, thinking that you were the one who came to make a diagnosis in the morning, so now I can only invite you to come again. "

The doctor nodded, "You don't need to thank the princess, this is what should be done. Doctors are benevolent, and they must do benevolent things."

Ding An went to take the doctor back to the hospital, while Daiyu and Zijuan were busy decocting medicine and keeping an eye on the snow geese, lest the snow geese get sick again. If no one is watching, something will happen.

I took a few more doses of medicine from the doctor, and the increased dose was almost half of the previous dose. Daiyu looked at the medicine on the stove, sighed softly, and continued to fan the fan.

Snow Goose's convulsions improved a lot when the sky was approaching dawn, except for occasional convulsions, the rest of the time it was considered stable.

Zijuan, who came back from fetching water, saw Daiyu sitting on a small stool, not forgetting to pay attention to the condition of the snow geese while decocting the medicine. Every wind and grass would scare Daiyu into thinking that something happened again.

Daiyu yawned and watched the rest of the people get up with the first crowing of the rooster. When she took the basin to the yard, she found that everyone was the same, and the well water was not usable. , but people in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion are not allowed to go out, where to fetch water.

"This kind of job is still for me, Princess—"

Seeing that Daiyu had been decocting the medicine, a little servant girl was afraid she hadn't closed her eyes all night, so she hurriedly asked to help, but just as soon as she opened her mouth, she heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the courtyard.

Daiyu suddenly woke up, got up and hurriedly looked up, and saw that it was Zhang Guanshi who came in person.

"What happened?"

"...Princess, five people died of the epidemic last night."

The fan in Daiyu's hand fell along with Zhang Guanshi's voice, and the fan fell to her feet, and Daiyu's heart sank to the bottom - dead?Overnight, five people died of the epidemic.
