Three days after Qian Qian was sent back, she still had a fever.
She was frightened before, and she didn't speak after she woke up. Yinniang was worried that she would get sick from the fright, so she took good care of her, but she still got sick.
He had a high fever, his whole body was burning hot, and he was talking nonsense in a state of confusion.
Although I saw a doctor and took medicine, it was not symptomatic and I kept having fevers over and over again.
Yinniang was so anxious that she didn't know what to do. She could only kneel on the ground and beg Bodhisattva to worship her ancestors, hoping that Qianqian would get better.
Yu Jinxi was strategizing on important matters, but she didn't know medical skills, so she had no other choice but to be anxious.
Zhang's mother was worried that Yu Jinxi would get sick and wouldn't let her get close to Qianqian. She sat in her room and couldn't sleep all night.
News came from outside that Yu had just recovered from his long-term illness, but his body was still weak.
The young master of the Qi family next door has not recovered yet, and Master Qi and Mrs. Qi have also fallen ill. The medicine she keeps in the house is being sent out in boxes after boxes, but it is of no avail, as if there is no end in sight.
In her previous life, she didn't feel this way.
Maybe it's because she keeps to herself and has never made friends, so she doesn't know what the symptoms are like outside?
But she also saved a lot of medicinal materials in her previous life, which Yu Changnian secretly sent to the capital after learning about the Linzhou epidemic. After the epidemic ended, the medicinal materials in the mansion were gone. Now that she thinks about her previous life, They were all given away by Gu Qiheng to establish friendship.
But she stayed in the house stupidly, willing to be deceived by him.
Yu Jinxi felt her heart was stuffy and her head was dizzy. She didn't even take off her shoes and fell asleep on the bed.
She didn't wake up until Mother Zhang made some soup for her to take a bath. Mother Zhang called out twice and saw that she didn't answer. She was startled and quickly went to touch her forehead. Only by touching her forehead did she find her forehead. Shockingly hot.
"Someone, come quickly!"
Zhang's mother screamed in fright. After a while, Grandma Qian and Bicao came over, along with the doctor from the mansion who was treating Qian Qian.
When the doctor saw the symptoms, his expression turned bad, "It's an epidemic coming from outside!"
Upon hearing this, Mother Zhang and Grandma Qian's legs became weak.
This was really unexpected, even though I had tried everything to take precautions, I still failed to prevent it.
Zhang’s mother quickly asked, “Doctor, what can we do?”
"There is no other way to treat it according to Miss Qianqian's prescription. Fortunately, there is medicine in the house. If there is no medicine, I can only wait to die."
The doctor sighed and said, "You have to insist on using medicine every day. Don't be careless. This disease really attacks, and people will die if you are not careful. You don't know if you don't go out, there are corpses outside the capital." The ashes are almost filling the sinkhole.”
People who died from the epidemic could not be buried in the ground, but could only be burned with fire. Even so, there were a lot of ashes.
Mother Zhang and Grandma Qian took a deep breath, and their expressions changed drastically.
Bi Cao looked worried.
The doctor at Yu Jinxi's house was sent by Chu Dashan. He originally consulted in the medicine hall. After Qian Qian fell ill, he was sent here by Chu Dashan.
What Chu Dashan gave the doctor was not the medical fee, but the medicinal materials for treating the disease. Now the medicinal materials outside have been sold at sky-high prices. Even if the imperial court intervenes, they cannot control the situation.
The day after Yu Jinxi fell down, Qian Qian's fever miraculously subsided, and her symptoms seemed to be getting better day by day.
When Yanhuai knew about it, Qingfeng discovered something was wrong when he went to get the medicine. At this time, Yu Jinxi had been in a coma for three days, having fever intermittently, sometimes clearly, sometimes confused, and talking a lot. Neither Zhang's mother nor Qian's mother said anything. I understand, but I can’t understand it at all.
"What's going on? You're sick. Why didn't you send someone to tell me?"
When Yan Huai saw Yu Jinxi lying on the bed, his eyes turned red with distress.
Mother Zhang and Grandma Qian stood aside, not daring to breathe.
Finally, Mother Zhang said, "Miss knew that the prince was also infected with the disease, so she didn't ask this slave to inform you."
"In those days, Miss Qianqian was worried about Miss Qianqian's condition and the situation outside. Letters from outside came in every day. She knew that you were staying in the refugee den outside, and she was very worried. And you were sick. The news also came from outside."
Hearing this, Yanhuai felt a deep sense of guilt in his eyes.
Although he resettled the refugees outside the capital, Yu Jinxi helped him with a lot of ideas in private. She had been worried about him and provided practical help.
She asked him to resettle the refugees with peace of mind. The Yu family was the backing of the people in Linzhou and Cangzhou, and also the backing of the refugees outside the capital.
The imperial court couldn't afford to take care of it, but the Yu family could.
It's just that he didn't want to drag the Yu family into trouble anymore, so he set out to deal with the royal family members and the wealthy gentry and corrupt officials in the capital.
After Mr. Qian goes in, it is time for the Minister of Household Affairs to go in, and it is time for the wealthy households in the capital to make some moves. With their financial resources, they are enough to resettle the refugees outside the city.
Yanhuai guarded Yu Jinxi, changing her handkerchief over and over again when she had a fever, but also used medicine and fumigation over and over again under the reminder of Zhang's mother to avoid reinfection.
During this period, Yanhuai also met Mr. Qi next door.
At this time, Mr. Qi was still sick. Although he had no fever, he was coughing over and over again.
The two met in the study room. Mr. Qi covered his mouth with a handkerchief and deliberately stayed away from him.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am seriously ill and cannot be too close to you."
"Master Qi, just do what you want. I live in a homeless shelter every day, and I see a lot of people who are sick."
Hearing what Yanhuai said, Qi Chengshu nodded slightly, and Yanhuai asked again, "Master Qi, is it better to have a son and a daughter? Do you still need medicine?"
Qi Chengshu coughed twice before replying, "It's getting better now. This is all thanks to Miss Yu who delivers medicine every day. Miss Yu saved our family's lives."
Yanhuai said, "Mr. Qi, you are serious. You are a loyal minister. No one can just watch you become seriously ill without any cure."
Qi Chengshu smiled and did not answer the question.
He knew very well what kind of temperament Emperor Xuan had in the court.
Their king was not a wise and loving minister.
"Last time the prince said that Master Qian had already recruited someone, but I don't know who he specifically recruited?"
"All the six ministries of the court and central government were involved, but the Minister of Hubu was the most guilty, and Yang Yu, the minister of Dali Temple who was responsible for the disaster relief, was also his chief recommendation."
When Yanhuai said this, Qi Chengshu understood instantly.
"This is a nest of snakes and rats. Yang Yu seems to be fair and honest, but I have heard a little bit about him and heard that he is not what he is."
Hearing this, Yanhuai sneered and said, "This time he is in charge of the disaster relief in Linzhou and Cangzhou. I'm afraid that the people of these two states will be in bad luck again."
Qi Chengshu asked doubtfully, "Isn't there still King Heng?"
Yan Huai sneered and said, "Yan Pingzhang is just a weakling. He was almost frightened to death by a bear during winter hunting. He will listen to anyone who threatens him. And he is only assisting in disaster relief, even if something goes wrong. , protected by his dead father’s gold medal, no matter what happens, he will be safe and sound.”
