Wei Mansion.
After all, he had made peace with Prince Changnan, and even though he had brought along all the former Changnan Prince's family members, the mansion could no longer be called Changnan Prince's Palace.
not to mention.
King Changnan has been taking back his fiefdom since Xiao Luo's death seven years ago.
now.
The so-called Changnan Palace has really existed in name only for a long time.
If the name is still absent, it is actually of little use.
This is why Mu Qizhang and others chose Xiao Ning as their first target for a puppet.
Because the other five princes have their own fiefdoms.
Having a fief means having soldiers and horses.
Having soldiers and horses means that they are difficult to control and may pose a threat to the capital.
Xiao Ning, who had nothing but a palace and hundreds of soldiers, was much safer.
In fact, among hundreds of scholars, many people are not optimistic about King Changnan's chances of winning in the future battle of six kings. A large part of the reason is because King Changnan has lost his territory!
What I have to say is that the mansion Xiao Ning bought in Qiongzhou is still very comfortable.
The area is larger than the previous palace, and the design in all aspects is also very exquisite.
After the servants moved here, they should have taken care of it more carefully.
However, the entire Wei Mansion was in chaos.
No one has the time to take care of these things.
There is no other reason.
Wei Qing pulls!
fall sick.
this will.
Xiaolian's face was still stained with tears, as if she had just cried.
"Steward Zhou, what should we do?"
She asked anxiously while touching Wei Qingwan's head.
At this moment, she was really worried.
The old housekeeper Zhou Xuhe is also an old man in the palace.
He usually behaves tactfully, but seeing the little girl in such a panic, he comforted her:
"Miss Xiaolian, there is no need to worry. Bingdie and Changsheng have already gone to find the doctor. If nothing else happens, they should be able to find him soon."
"My lady has been practicing martial arts since she was a child. Her physique is much stronger than that of ordinary people. She will be fine."
Zhou Xuhe was persuading.
Just outside the door, Chang Sheng's voice was heard.
"father."
"Changsheng, how's it going?"
Seeing Zhou Changsheng back, Housekeeper Zhou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and Xiaolian also came over.
"Brother Changsheng, how are you?"
But never thought about it.
"Dad, I have visited all the medical clinics in Dongcheng. After hearing about the condition of the young lady, they were not willing to come."
"Huh? You don't want to come. What's the point?"
Zhou Xuhe frowned.
"The doctor at the medical center heard about the young lady's illness and said it was a plague and there was no cure."
"plague?"
The word plague, in this era, is not a minor illness or disaster.
Hear the words.
Zhou Xuhe's usually steady and calm face had a trace of unnoticeable panic this time.
Xiaolian couldn't hold it back, and tears almost came out.
"But? If this is a plague, how can we be fine?"
It stands to reason.
Plagues are all strange diseases that are contagious and spread over large areas.
"I also asked about this. The doctor said that this plague has been going on near Qiongzhou for a long time."
"It's just that because this plague is very strange, only a small number of people will get it. Therefore, it has not caused a large-scale epidemic."
"So, what you are saying is that because our body mechanisms are different from this plague, only a small number of people may be infected."
"And Miss, she happens to be one of those few people?"
Zhou Xuhe thought about it roughly:
"In that case, it's just our young lady who got it, and those doctors may not necessarily be infected. Why don't they dare to come?"
"That's the problem we face today."
Zhou Changsheng said helplessly:
"The doctor later told me that although only a small number of people will be infected by this plague."
"However, once a patient infected with plague has been ill for a long time, the plague in his body will progress and become able to spread to most other people."
"In other words, this plague may only infect a small number of people at first. But once one person becomes infected, the disease will last for a long time."
"The plague completed its pathological changes in its body, and it began to turn into an ordinary plague."
"So, those doctors were worried that the plague had changed in the young lady's body and started to spread, so they didn't dare to come."
Butler Zhou was a little panicked at first.
But after all, he was a man who had seen the big world, and he quickly calmed down. After thinking about it carefully, he said again:
"In that case, did the doctor tell me when the plague will change the fastest? And what will be the slowest?"
"If it takes more than one day, or if it takes three days later, the plague will definitely be completed."
"If it's more, it's one day, if it's too late, it's three days."
Butler Zhou muttered and counted the time.
"That means that in another hour, the young lady's plague may be transmitted to everyone."
"Chang Sheng, immediately inform the servants to clean and tidy up the other buildings in the Wei Mansion. No one is allowed to come to the lady's yard without my permission."
"Xiao Lian, don't wait for me for now. I'll take care of Miss."
"By the way, Changsheng, arrange another group of people to search for the doctor across Qiongzhou."
"Under a heavy reward, there must be a brave man. I don't believe it. No one has come to earn this money."
After Zhou Xuhe made arrangements, he ran aside by himself to wash the towel.
Seeing this, Xiaolian followed her and said:
"Uncle Zhou, it's not convenient for you to look after the lady here. Xiao Lian should be the one to serve her."
Said.
Xiaolian took the towel and went straight into Wei Qingwan's boudoir.
Seeing this, Zhou Xuhe smiled bitterly.
He continued to guard outside Wei Qingwan's room and said:
"Xiao Lian, if anything happens, just call Uncle Zhou."
About half an hour later.
The people who went out to look for the doctor came back one after another.
Unfortunately.
The news they brought back was almost exactly the same.
"Steward Zhou and the doctors over there in the West City are not willing to come to see a doctor. They also advise the young ones to treat the sick people..."
The servant who came back with the news hesitated to speak.
“What about the people who are going to get sick?”
"Send the sick people into the untouched wilderness to fend for themselves... to avoid causing a large-scale plague epidemic in the city..."
"Moreover, they also said that this is the usual way to deal with this kind of plague here."
"Yes, Butler Zhou, even the most famous medical clinic in Qiongzhou has said that this plague cannot be cured once contracted..."
"Okay, I understand, go down."
Butler Zhou waved his hand and sighed.
At this time.
The ice butterfly finally came back.
She dragged her tired body and looked a little lonely as she walked.
"Bingdie, how are you?"
"As they said, I have been to almost all medical clinics, even some in the countryside."
"But people in Qiongzhou seem to be very familiar with this plague and are not willing to come and see it at all."
"They even think that abandoning sick people in the wilderness is a normal thing. They are already used to it..."
Bingdie sighed and made no more noise.
However.
Right now.
In Wei Qingwan's bedroom.
A weak voice sounded slowly.
"Uncle Zhou, Bingdie, I heard everything you said."
It's Wei Qingwan!
"Miss, are you awake?"
Hearing this voice, the two of them were immediately delighted and followed him closely.
But I heard the person in the room immediately shouted weakly:
"Stop! Don't come in! One day is coming soon."
"Don't you all come in, just prepare a horse for me."
"Xiao Lian, you can go out too. You don't have to accompany me. Since there is no way to cure this disease, I guess this is my fate."
"It's just that I'm really worried. I'm really worried that my husband will be plotted by those who are interested in the capital..."
Wei Qing said reluctantly, his voice full of weakness.
"Okay, you all can leave. Remember, after my death, all my family property will be left to my husband."
"Bingdie, don't go to the capital to disturb my husband for the time being. It will save him trouble. You just need to find someone to pay attention to his movements."
"When he is in danger or needs the palace's money, you can tell him."
At this time.
Wei Qingwan has already begun to make funeral arrangements.
When the three of them heard this, they discovered that the young lady was still thinking about the young prince before she died.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a layer of hatred towards the young prince in their hearts.
What a good person the lady is?
Why can the young prince do such a thing?
"Miss! Stop talking, we won't leave!"
"Yes, Miss. Xiaolian is Miss's maid. If Miss dies, Xiaolian will no longer be alive."
Bingdie didn't speak, but her firm eyes showed what she was thinking.
After hearing this, Wei Qingwan smiled weakly and said:
"What are you talking about? Well, get your horses ready and you can disperse."
"This is an order! What? I'm sick, and you don't even listen to me?"
Wei Qingwan pretended to be stern and said something, but unfortunately, there was nothing else but weakness in his voice.
The three of them remained motionless after hearing this.
No one noticed.
at this time.
In front of the Wei Mansion.
A fast horse, its front legs were pulled hard by the person on the horse.
The horse, galloping like lightning, stopped in front of the door.
Then.
After the man on the horse dismounted, the horse could no longer bear the weight and fell straight to the ground.
That horse was exhausted to death!
