Yun Chu held the plump and white baby girl in his arms, and his body felt a little numb.
He remembered that his advice to Wu Mei was to send the child to Sun Shenxian or Xuanzang to practice for a period of time before bringing him back.
He really didn't expect that the baby girl who was sleeping soundly in Wu Mei's arms would turn around and end up in his hands. "A plague has broken out in Liuzhou and it has been going on for more than half a year. I want to go take a look."
Sun Shenxian did not explain to Yun Chu why he put the child in his house. He only said that there was a plague in Liuzhou, and it was also a dysentery plague. One day could make a strong man lose strength, and two days could make a fat man thin... The people were tortured by the disease. He should go there with the medicine and take a look.
Yun Chu hugged the fat baby girl and frowned. Sun Shenxian said: "Kill mosquitoes," look for clean water sources. If there is no clean water source, you must boil the water to drink. If you can find Artemisia annua to get the juice for drinking, maybe efficient. "
Sun Simiao stared at Yun Chu and said: "Effective"
Yun Chu pointed to his nose and said, "It's effective." "Antivirus is useful."
"It's useful, but it's not useful for patients. If the doctor applies antiseptic on the exposed skin and cleans the ward with antiseptic, it can effectively prevent dysentery." Sun Simiao looked at Yun Chudao: "You will be a registered disciple of the old Taoist from now on. Die prematurely. Yun Chu raised the fat child in his hand and said, "You also found something wrong?" Sun Simiao shook his head and said: "I don't have the ability to predict the future. I just discovered that this child's illness is strange. If she continues to live in the palace, sooner or later she will die. "So you send her to me to raise."
"Didn't you suggest that Zhaoyi give the child to Lao Tao to be raised? Lao Tao is going to Liuzhou now and has no way to raise the child. Is there anything wrong with you to raise the child?" "This is a boss's trouble.
Sun Simiao stroked his beard and said: "Since you want to be a good person, then you should just do it to the end. The old Taoist is too old and can't raise children. Draw a picture of Artemisia annua and let the old Tao look for it."
Yun Chu had no choice but to hand the child over to Yu Xiurong, then went to the study, found a bundle of Artemisia annua and gave it to Sun Simiao. Sun Simiao just glanced at it and said, "Smelly Hao Yunchu nodded and said: "I only know that this thing can treat dysentery. As for how to treat it, the master can study it slowly when he goes to the epidemic area. Sun Simiao turned around and left with a bundle of Artemisia annua in his arms. He didn't even have the time to drink tea at Yunchu's house. "Master, do you believe me when I say it?" Yun Chu quickly chased after him to see him off.
Sun Simiao stopped and said to Yun Chu with a smile, "Can you lie to me?" Yun Chu shook his head fiercely.
Sun Simiao smiled and got on an ox cart. The medicine boy whipped the cow's buttocks, and the old cow dragged the cart and swayed away. Yu Xiurong placed the child on the brocade couch, looked around happily, and finally asked Yunchu: "Can our family raise a princess?"
Yun Chu shook his head and said: "They were not raised by our family, but by the master. We are just helping the master." Yu Xiurong said again: "Why didn't you bring grandma and wet nurse to our home?" Yun Chu said, "Master can't trust those people." .
"So, Master, he believes in our family?" "Yes, so you have to take good care of him.
I don’t know why Yu Xiurong was so excited. After Yun Chu finished speaking, she loudly called Ms. Cui to come in. She wanted to choose the best wet nurse and nanny for the child in Jinchangfang.
Ms. Cui was also very happy. It was okay to raise a princess at home. If she wanted to raise a prince, Ms. Cui would be reluctant to do so anyway. What's more, this was taken over from Sun Shenxian. Even if there were problems, Sun Shenxian would be there to stand in the way.
However, Ms. Cui still issued a hush-hush order at home not to spread the news, and the servants and wives at home were all old people from the palace, so they naturally knew the importance and no one said anything. When Yunchu got up in the morning to practice martial arts, a thin layer of frost fell on the ground. It must have been snowing in Tuyuhun by this time.
Zhang Jianzhi and the others should have arrived at Tyuhun by now, but no news came at all. There is no news about Plan A, and Yunchu has already begun to prepare his own Plan B. He asked Zhang Jia to start counting the urban foxes and rats in Chang'an City, and planned to send these desperadoes to Tuyuhun first.
Wait until these people do something, then go and persuade the old soldiers, old thieves, and old robbers, because these people are the masters who will not let go of the eagle when they see the rabbit.
At the end of October, there was a heavy snowfall in Chang'an. The snow was so heavy that the snow on Zhuque Street was a foot thick. The Wannian County Yamen ordered that all cities and towns began to carry out fire protection in accordance with the designated areas. Clear away snow and ice.
People in Wannian County are already familiar with such orders. Even if there is no snow, they must clean according to the divided areas.
So, after half a day passed, a strange scene appeared in Chang'an City. On the territory belonging to Wannian County, all the snow was piled up and the ground was clean. Even half of Zhuque Street was clean, while the other half of the snow had been crushed into icy patches by horse-drawn carriages. Pedestrians would fall after just a few steps on it. For a while, there was an endless stream of curses directed at Chang'an County.
Li Zhi was not in the mood to care about the ice and snow in Chang'an City at this time. In front of him, a girl with picturesque features was lying quietly on the bed. Her originally beautiful face was green and terrifying.
Just last night, this warm-smelling jade-like body was still gracefully embracing him. Just one day later, it turned into a cold and terrifying corpse. This made it difficult for Li Zhi to accept it for a while. .
Originally, the first person he suspected was Wu Mei, but Wu Mei now lives in Qujiang Chengxiang Palace, and the palace servants and eunuchs around her are all old people from Liangyi Palace. With these old people around, Li Zhi believed that Wu Mei would have no chance to communicate with the palace. If it wasn't Wu Mei, who would it be? Thinking of this, Li Zhi suddenly had a splitting headache.
Helan is a very good woman. Even though she is young, she has a very gentle temperament. Every time she is with Helan, Li Zhi can get great satisfaction. Now, the beauty has passed away.
"Check it out!" Li Zhi's voice was as cold as coming from hell.
Wu Mei leaned on a soft pillow, lying on her side, looking down at her belly in confusion. Just yesterday, she felt unwell. After calling the imperial doctor for a check-up, she discovered that she was pregnant again.
Thinking of her own body that could easily get pregnant, Wu Mei couldn't help but smile bitterly. If this continued, how could she continue to dote on her? Just when she was feeling sorry for herself, a woman rushed to her bed with her hair disheveled and cried out: "He Lan is dead."
Wu Mei suddenly sat up, grabbed her sister's collar and said: "Tell me clearly, why and how did Helan die?" Wu Shun, the Korean lady, said sadly: "Those who died after eating arsenic poisoning are not allowed to die." At four o'clock last night, I couldn't tell whether it was murder or suicide, but you know that this child Helan will not commit suicide in any case." Wu Mei sneered and said to Wu Shun: "Your Majesty's bed is really Such an easy person has told you so much, but you just don't listen.
At this time, you risked your life to come to me. It's too late, what can I do? Now that I am pregnant, I hope you can help me.
The plan now is to find the murderer as soon as possible. What's the use of crying in front of me? Go and cry in front of His Majesty. If the murderer is not found, none of our sisters will be safe. 'Korean Mrs. Wu Shun was scolded so fiercely by Wu Mei that she forgot to cry. She hurriedly got up and stumbled out. When there was no one in the hall, Wu Mei turned her attention to the bedroom. Looking at the empty cradle in his heart, a trace of tenderness appeared in his eyes, and he pushed the cradle gently, as if to soothe his restless heart.
"You said Wu Mei is pregnant again."
Li Zhi sat up in surprise, took off the white cloth handkerchief from his forehead, looked at an old palace man and asked.
"To answer your Majesty's question, Wu Zhaoyi is already more than one month pregnant, and it was the royal doctor Yao Jing who found her happy pulse." Li Zhi was silent for a moment and said, "How is the investigation into Helan's death?
The old palace man picked up the wrinkled old face and said calmly: "I was poisoned by arsenic and was force-fed down. An eunuch in the Dilan Palace committed suicide by throwing himself into a well last night. Only after he was fished out did he find out. , he committed suicide after taking poison.
The poison used was still arsenic, and the old slave thought that it was also force-fed. "Yilan Palace?" "Your Majesty, it is the residence of Concubine Xiao Shu." "Isn't this matter related to Concubine Xiao Shu?" The old palace man chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, this harem matter is the most secretive and unpredictable." Sometimes it looks suspicious. , is probably the most innocent. Sometimes the person who seems to be the most innocent is the most likely murderer.
In my opinion, it's just a woman who died. Your Majesty, just forget about her and don't let this matter distract you. Li Zhige asked the old palace man: "How did the mother and queen handle these things in the past?" "The old palace man raised his hand to make a knife and pressed it down gently. "Kill"
"Exactly, as long as we kill all the people who are related, the murderer will naturally be killed, and the harem will be peaceful from now on."
Li Zhi shook his head repeatedly and said: "Forget it, forget it, let's end this matter here, don't involve too much." The old palace man looked at Li Zhi regretfully, and finally knelt down and said softly: "This will only do it." It's a shame, Your Majesty." Li Zhi smiled bitterly and said, "I can't kill my own people. If it were a foreign enemy, I wouldn't be so sad." The old palace man continued to kowtow and said, "Your Majesty can put all the blame on the old slave. It's so unfair." It harms His Majesty’s name of kindness.”
Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "You should keep your old life and serve me for a few more years. Let's leave it as it is. She is just a nameless woman anyway. Kneel down, I have a severe headache."
