Yang Xu'er of the Prince of Lanling

Chapter 40: Xu'er Gets the Plague, Yu Wenyong Breaks into the Epidemic Area

It has been dozens of days since we arrived in the epidemic area.The investigation of the source of the plague has not made any progress.These days, with everyone's joint efforts, the epidemic has finally improved, and the spread of the plague has slowed down slightly.However, there are still people who continue to have epidemics every day.

I tried to investigate various possible sources of plague, such as water sources and food, but found nothing, and was at a loss for what to do for a while.

"My lord, my lord. I beg you to save my child, my lord."

Just when I was at a loss, I heard a woman's pleading cry outside the door. "Xiao Cui, what's the situation outside?"

"Back to Miss Xu'er, there is a woman holding a child and begging you to save her child. The soldiers tried to pull her away, but she refused to leave." Xiaocui frowned and replied.

"Go out and have a look!" I put down the things in my hands and walked out of the room.I saw a plainly dressed woman who could be regarded as somewhat shabby, holding a child in her arms, kneeling on the ground crying sadly, no matter how the guards pulled her away, she refused to leave.

"Master Tiannv, please save my child! He is the last Miao Miao of our old Li's family." Seeing me coming out, the woman picked up the child and ran over, pulling my clothes and pleading.

"What's the matter? Tell me slowly, auntie."

"I, our third baby, have been groggy since drinking my milk and started to have a fever. I didn't know that I had the plague. If I knew, I wouldn't let my third baby drink this milk. My lord, I beg you, save my child. He’s still so young. It’s okay for me to get the plague, but if he also… woo woo woo,” the woman began to cry as she spoke.

"Come on, let me take a look." I took the child and checked his pulse carefully. "Auntie, don't be sad. I'll check the pulse. Your child should not have the plague, but just a common cold. Maybe he caught a cold at night. Just take a couple of pills and everything will be fine."

"Really? But I have been breastfed two days ago. The doctor said, I have had the plague for at least 5 days. It's just that I was careless, and I didn't feel any discomfort at the beginning. Our third baby drank my milk, really Is it okay, I heard that the plague is contagious?" The woman was relieved when she heard that the child was fine, but she couldn't help but blame herself.

After I checked again, I was very sure: "Don't worry, auntie, the child is really fine."

"That's great, God bless. It must be the third baby's father, and the eldest and second baby are blessed in heaven, so the third baby is fine. Thank you, lord Tiannv, thank you, lord Tiannv."

"Get up!" I helped the woman up and said, "Since you have the plague, it is not suitable for you to keep the child by your side. If you can, you should give it to someone else temporarily."

"Okay, the woman will give the child to my mother-in-law, and then go to the epidemic area to receive treatment. Thank you, Lord Tiannv." After saying that, she took the child, kowtowed heavily, and left.

Back in the house again, I dismissed Xiaocui, and sat alone at the table thinking.Most plagues can be transmitted through breast milk. I saw that the woman had similar plaques on her face, neck, and hands. She really looked like she had the plague.So why didn't the children who drank her milk get infected?plaque?breast milk?Not contagious?Isn't this a plague, an infectious disease?No, if it is not an infectious disease, why do so many people have the same disease one after another?

It's really puzzling.

After a night of fruitless thinking, I simply went to bed.Maybe there will be some clues after waking up.After sleeping, I woke up feeling dizzy and my throat was a little dry.I reluctantly got up and started to wash, through the water in the basin, I suddenly found that there seemed to be something on my neck.Pull off the clothes—there are cyan plaques, exactly the same as those who got the plague.Am I infected with the plague too?For a moment, the hand softened, and with a bang, the washbasin fell to the ground in an instant.

"Miss Xu'er, what's the matter?" Xiao Cui came in to serve me for breakfast, seeing that I was in such a mess, just about to say something, "Ah, Plague..." She immediately covered her mouth.

"It should be the plague." I said with a wry smile.

"How could Miss Xu'er be infected with the plague?" Xiaocui said in disbelief, then suddenly seemed to think of something, and asked, "Could it be the woman from last night?"

"No. We haven't been in contact for a long time, and she didn't touch me directly. It shouldn't be the problem last night." I thought about it. Since entering the epidemic area, although I have been in contact with patients, I have always been very Pay attention to protection and disinfection.The possibility of being infected is very small, and I silently had a thought in my heart. If it is really what I think, then there is only one possible reason that caused this plague.

"Xiao Cui, I'll write a note, please hand it over to the Imperial Physician. Hurry up, right now."

"Yes. Miss Xu'er?"

"I'm fine. I just got the plague. As long as the source is confirmed, the plague will be cured soon." I explained to Xiaocui while writing paper and pen.Watching Xiaocui leave, I reluctantly ate two bites of breakfast, felt a little feverish, and went back to sleep under the covers again.Obviously just woke up, sleepiness soon came up again.

Dry mouth, headache, difficulty breathing and all kinds of sensations flooded my five senses.I opened my eyes, blurred vision, as if someone was sitting by my bed.I am, yes, I remembered.I seem to have the plague.Is there anyone talking?

"How about it?"

"It is indeed a plague, and, and..."

"And what?"

"There seems to be signs of poisoning in Tiannv's body."

Intoxicated, I regained full consciousness. "Ah Yong?" Why is he here?

"Xu'er, are you awake?" Yu Wenyong heard my call, and immediately sat down beside my bed, and at the same time helped me to sit up.

"Why are you here!" I asked in surprise, this is an epidemic area, how could he come in? "This is an epidemic area, how could you just come in like this? You...cough cough" Due to a little excitement, the throat that sucked in the cold air suddenly felt uncomfortable and coughed continuously.

"I heard from Shenju that you were infected with the plague. Didn't I tell you that everything can be done by the imperial doctor? Didn't you promise me that you would take care of yourself?" Yu Wenyong patted me on the back , to please me, while accusing me a little bit angrily.But I know that he is worried about me.

"Let's not talk about that, my lord. In the morning, I asked Xiaocui to bring you the information. What do you think?" I was busy asking about the plague. If my guess is correct, then the plague will be completely cured and the epidemic will be lifted. It is possible.

"Back to Tiannu, I re-diagnosed those patients based on what Tiannu wrote, and at the same time sent someone to ask again, and found that Tiannu's guess is very likely."

"Really? If that's the case, have you found the source of the lesion?" Received an affirmative answer, and felt more than half relieved.Seeing Yu Wenyong appearing in the epidemic area, the fear of him being infected also disappeared.

"I haven't found it yet." The imperial physician paused for a while and replied.

"Please ask the doctor to send more people to search. You can start with my diet for the past two days, so the scope will be much smaller."

I came and went with the imperial physician, and you said something to me, and then A Yong who was on the side was dizzy.I looked at his tangled face, couldn't help laughing, and kindly explained for him: "This plague may not be a real plague. I suspect that some kind of food disease caused unknowing villagers to eat it. People who have diseased food get sick one after another, which looks like a plague, but it is not really an infectious disease."

"You mean it's not a plague?"

"Yes. The most urgent thing is to find out the source of the disease as soon as possible, so as to prescribe the right medicine and formulate a prescription to relieve the disease." I replied affirmatively.

"Hurry up and go!" Yu Wenyong obeyed the imperial physician's orders.Looking at him, he has always been domineering and forceful in front of officials. Thinking of the way he gets along with me on weekdays, it is really a bit worse.

After the Imperial Physician retired, Xiao Cui was also sent out by Yu Wenyong.Only me and him are left in this room.

"I'm sorry! I made you worry." I shrank my neck and said to him guiltily.

"Okay, you are sick now, it's better to rest. As for the plague, there is an imperial doctor, so there is no need to worry about it."

"Okay!" As far as I am now, besides my brain can function, it is really useless. It is better to stay in the room obediently and don't cause trouble to others. "You, you shouldn't come here. Wouldn't they stop God's move?"

"I heard the news that you were infected with the plague, so I came here without thinking too much. God has stopped it, but as long as I want to come, who can stop it?" Yu Wenyong seemed a little dissatisfied with my wording, but still answer my question.

"Don't take such a risk next time. You are the emperor, don't always put yourself in danger." Even if it's for me, don't do it.I don't want you to be in danger.

"As a man, you can't watch your woman take risks while you stay in a safe place. In that case, I'm not qualified to say I like you."

Why, you want to speak clearly?Ah Yong, you know, I am avoiding the relationship between the two of us, so I have always kept silent, no matter how much I do, I will not say it easily.Why are you saying this to me now, forcing me to face up to this fact.I really don't want to upset the balance right now.

"En." I lowered my head, not daring to look at him, so I just replied in a muffled voice.

Seeing me like this, Yu Wenyong didn't continue talking, "You have a good rest, and let Xiaocui come to me if you have anything to do." After finishing speaking, he left with a flick of his sleeves.Looking at his leaving back, I must have hurt him.I clearly know that sometimes even keeping silent is a kind of harm, why do I still choose to do so.Why don't I have the courage to choose to face other people's feelings and face my own?

Regarding Yu Wenyong, if I say that I have no feelings for him at all, let alone other people don’t believe me, even I don’t believe it.I admit that I was moved to him at the beginning, but I don't know when, little by little, this feeling has deteriorated unconsciously.Admit it, Yang Xuer, you are also in love with Yu Wenyong.Falling in love with Ah Yong who is obviously domineering, but still accommodates me in everything; falling in love with Ah Yong, who has always been calm when he encounters me, and his emotion is better than reason; I like him occasionally looking at me awkwardly, The one who makes me cringe occasionally.

But, is it possible for me and him to be together?How far can we go?

Thinking of the queen, I raised my right hand and put it on my left wrist. Sure enough, when the imperial physician said that there was poisoning in my body, I was a little confused.My poison, no matter how you look at it, is an old poison accumulated over the years, and the medical skills of the etheric doctor can't tell the difference.My pulse showed that there were two kinds of poison left in my body, one was my own blood poison, and the other was an almost unknown poison that had been swallowed by my blood poison.In the state of Zhou, I have never offended anyone. If I were to say that the only person who has a problem is the queen, I hope I think more about it.
