No matter what you are afraid of, there was another heavy rain that night. The wind was heavy and the rain was heavy. It slapped the newly installed windows with a "bang bang" sound, which made people tremble in their hearts.
Shen Lansui woke up from her sleep. Listening to the sound of rain outside the window, she lost all sleep. She turned over gently, and Lu Xingyue asked, "Can't you sleep?"
"Are you awake too?" Shen Lansui paused after asking, feeling something was wrong, and asked hesitantly: "You didn't sleep all night, right?"
Lu Xingyue shook his head, closed his arms and took the person back into his arms, rubbed his forehead on her shoulder, his voice still hoarse when he first woke up, and whispered: "I woke up when I felt my arms were empty."
Shen Lansui laughed when he heard this, raised her hand and patted his head and said, "Does anyone else know that Mr. Lu is so clingy?"
Lu Xingyue didn't say anything, he leaned closer and kissed her earlobe gently.
"Are you worried?"
They didn't ask what they were worried about, but they both knew in their hearts that they were worried about just that one thing at this time.
Shen Lansui opened his eyes and looked at the dark room, listening to the sound of rain outside, and after a long time he said: "The rain is going to stop."
"Tomorrow...I'm afraid more people will have fever."
She sighed silently, "If this continues, I'm afraid Liang Ci's words will come true."
Lu Xingyue was silent for a moment, raised his hand to pull up the quilt, and whispered: "As long as we do our best to obey fate and have a clear conscience, thinking about the rest is useless and will only increase worries."
"That's right." Shen Lansui slowly closed his eyes, "We can only take one step at a time."
*
The rain fell not long ago and stopped within an hour, but it was no less powerful than the last time.
The next day, people whose fevers had subsided started to have fevers again, and many soldiers fell down. The makeshift isolation area was filled to the brim, and it was so densely packed with people that it was frightening to see them.
Blessings never come in pairs, misfortunes never come singly. The news is not the worst, only worse. News soon came from the Seventh Prince, who summoned Shen Lansui and the two imperial doctors to hurry over. Although they didn't say anything, at this time, they could still What is it?
The three of them met at the entrance of the government office and looked at each other with serious expressions.
Lu Xingyue accompanied Shen Lansui over. The person at the door glanced at Lu Xingyue and hesitated. The seventh prince's confidant came out and nodded and said, "Master Marquis, please come in too. General Liang is here too."
So the three of them turned into four and walked in together. As soon as they crossed the threshold, they heard the Seventh Prince coughing uncontrollably. Each sound was louder than the last, as if he was about to cough out his lungs. It was painful to hear it.
Shen Lansui's heart thumped, and the boulder fell to the ground.
Sure enough, the seventh prince was also sick.
She was not surprised. He had worked so hard before, and his body was already very tired. The weather has been hot and cold these days, and the temperature has dropped sharply. If you don't put on clothes in time, you may catch a cold. Besides, he has also gone to the isolation area to check the situation. , the possibility of infection is greatly increased.
"Your Highness, does he have a fever?" Dr. Zhang and Dr. Xue were not as calm as she was. They immediately turned pale with fright and hurried to the bedside.
The seventh prince opened the bed curtain and glanced at them, with an abnormal blush on his cheeks. "It's a fever that started in the middle of the night. Even taking medicine doesn't help."
He waved his hand and covered his lips again. His eyes were full of bloodshot eyes and tears coughed up. "You guys should go further away. Don't let me get over your illness. If you fall ill, Wan Guan City will really be over."
These words are both sad and touching.
Doctor Zhang and Doctor Xue wanted to step forward again, but were frightened by these words again, and froze in place for a moment.
Still Shen Lansui said: "Let me show it to His Highness."
Several people looked over together and saw that Shen Lansui had put on the mask at some point.
Zhengchou, surnamed Xue, couldn't find a reason to ridicule her. When he saw her wearing a mask, his eyes lit up. He immediately used the topic and said, "You are wearing this thing when you come to see His Highness. Do you think you dislike His Highness?"
Shen Lansui paused, looked at him doubtfully, and said nothing.
Doctor Xue thought he had struck a chord with her, and immediately sneered, "You are doing the following, how disrespectful!"
The seventh prince was coughing, but couldn't say what he wanted to say, and his face turned redder with anxiety.
Lu Xingyue took a step forward and said to Shen Lansui: "Don't worry about him. Go and see His Highness. If His Highness is delayed because of some people, I don't know if His Highness can still stand here and talk. He still has to give someone a dream."
Shen Lansui couldn't help laughing, but remembering that the current occasion was inappropriate, he suppressed his laughter again.
Liang Ci was not polite and said with a smile: "Some people don't care about their abilities, but they feel that everyone is inferior to them."
Doctor Xue blushed because of the two singing together. He wanted to say something, but Doctor Zhang grabbed his hand and whispered: "Watch your mouth, His Highness is also looking at you. After you go back, why don't you say something?" Do you want to hang out in Tai Hospital?"
There is no one here that they can afford to offend, but this fool is so eager to hit him.
Shen Lansui ignored the movement behind him, turned around, walked to the bed, and sat down directly, "Your Highness, stretch out your hand."
His Highness the Seventh Prince hesitated for a moment, but still obeyed the instructions, but moved his body further inside for fear of infecting her.
Shen Lansui smiled, her eyes slightly bent, "Don't worry, Your Highness, I am a miracle doctor and will not be infected. Those diseases will have to avoid me when they see me."
The seventh prince was amused by her and asked hoarsely, "Really?"
Although he knew she was joking, the Seventh Prince's emotions were still very well soothed. He lay there quietly, watching Shen Lansui's hand pressing on his pulse, and his heart involuntarily lifted. stand up.
Only he himself knows that he is actually very scared now.
He was afraid that he had contracted an epidemic. When the news spread back to Yangdu, how worried would his mother and sister be?
What's more important is that once he falls, the little hope that Wanguan City has finally gathered will be exhausted.
He is their backbone. If the backbone falls, chaos will easily arise.
Fortunately, after Shen Lansui looked at it for a while, her expression was still relaxed. She smiled and retracted her hand, opened the small medicine box she brought, took out the familiar gold needle and said: "I will give His Highness two injections, and His Highness's symptoms will be better." It has been relieved a lot. If you pay attention to keeping warm and taking medicine on time, you will be fine."
The seventh prince immediately breathed a sigh of relief and responded repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Thank you, the miracle doctor!"
The expressions of other people present also softened a lot, and the tense atmosphere that seemed to be absent before suddenly dissipated.
Only Lu Xingyue's hand behind his back slowly tightened.
If it was really just a simple cold, Shen Lansui would not take action, at least not using the golden needle. Since she took out the golden needle, it means that the seventh prince's situation is far from being as good as it seems.
His eyes darkened slightly, but he soon smiled like everyone else.
After Shen Lansui finished acupuncture for the Seventh Prince and the two of them went out, Lu Xingyue asked: "Is His Highness infected?"
