On a rainy night, Jimin Medicine Hall is brightly lit.
Patients gathered inside and outside, filling the medicine hall so much that there was no room to set foot.
In addition to the chaotic sound of rain falling to the ground, it was also mixed with the coughs of the people, one after another.
Master Jiu took one look and knew something was wrong.
There were many patients before, but not as many as now.
Duan Yi went over and called Lu He. After pushing him several times, Lu He fell straight off the bed and didn't even wake up: "What's going on? You're sleeping so hard?"
Kong Qing ran in and realized something was wrong.
Being a doctor is hard work.
But it’s not like you’d fall off the bed and not even feel it.
"Lu He!"
Kong Qing stretched out his hand and patted Lu He's face. The chill coming from his hand was as cold as a corpse!
"He's sick!" Kong Qing's fingertips touched Lu He's pulse and felt that the pulse was beating, but it was very weak.
Duan Yi quickly passed through the crowd and ran outside.
The stagnant water was stepped on and splashed up. People inside and outside the medicine hall, men and women, old and young, crowded together and struggled to survive.
The coughs came up and down, and some people coughed as if they wanted to spit out all their internal organs.
The imperial doctor who followed looked at Duan Yi who came out, and hurriedly went up and asked, "Where is Dr. Lu?"
Duan Yi said hurriedly: "Lu He is sick and is unconscious now!"
"Then what should we do? Miss Sixth's illness is approaching fiercely. If it is delayed, I'm afraid she will really die!"
"What's going on? Why are there so many patients?"
The sound of rain mixed with the chaotic voices of people, and the scene became extremely chaotic in an instant.
Yun Lingzheng glanced at his sister in Master Jiu's arms, and resolutely took Yun Jiangche out of the carriage.
"What's going on?" Yun Lingzheng was the leader of Xizhou's officials after all. He asked the imperial doctors to shut up their noisy mouths.
Duan Yi made the situation clear.
The imperial doctor on the side said: "Sixth Miss can't delay, why don't we find a place to settle down now?"
Now is the critical moment when this game is about to come to a complete conclusion.
Huo Shenzhi brought Yun Si here just to make Yun Si "die" in everyone's eyes with good reason.
In this way, the absolute safety of Yun Si and the child can be ensured.
The carriage turned around and was heading to Yun's mansion.
The imperial doctor hurriedly shouted: "Get out of the way quickly, don't block Miss Six's carriage from going back!"
"Miss Sixth? Is that Miss Sixth in the carriage?"
The people who crowded together heard that it was Yun Si inside.
They all raised their heads one after another, ignoring the heavy rain, and surrounded Yun Si's carriage.
"Miss Sixth, help!"
"Miss Sixth, please help us! We are going to die of illness!"
"Save my wife and children, they keep coughing, their hands and feet are cold today, and they are unconscious! They have taken a lot of medicine, but they are not getting better!"...
Chaotic sounds reached Yun Si's ears.
She was so tired that she opened her eyes: "What's going on? Where is Lu He?"
Huo Shenzhi raised his hand to cover her eyes. There was no trace of emotion or warmth in his eyes: "Qichen, go to the Yun family's mansion. Don't stop if anyone blocks you on the way."
"Miss Sixth, help! Help!"
The shrill voice came in heartbreakingly.
Yun Si pulled away the man's hand and turned to look out.
Yun Lingzheng and Yun Jiangche just got on the carriage.
Before Yun Si's energy had completely recovered, she heard empty sounds outside——
"My master is seriously ill and there is really nothing we can do. These imperial doctors are from the palace and will stay here for today. New doctors will come over in a while and they will definitely be able to help everyone get through this difficult time!"
Before Yun Si could think about it, she heard her second brother's order: "Let's set off!"
At the critical moment, nothing can be lost.
Yun Si saw groups of poor people outside through the gaps in the carriage.
They knelt on the ground, kneeling in the rain, and kept kowtowing to the carriage.
The chaotic thoughts were passively clear at this moment.
"what is going on?"
Yun Si grabbed Huo Shenzhi's clothes: "The people outside, they..."
"What happens to them is none of your business." Yun Lingzheng's voice was cold and ruthless:
"Now is the most critical moment. If you still want the child in your belly, don't show random kindness. You can save others, but if something happens, who will save you? The right time, place and people are gathered together. Seven days later, You can completely disappear from everyone's eyes. At that time, no matter how you want to go out to save people, no one will care about you."
Yun Si's breathing began to become intense.
She looked up at the man holding her.
Huo Shenzhi's face was indifferent as usual, he only gently stroked her back without saying a word.
"Those who achieve great things must be ruthless. Don't show kindness at inopportune times, otherwise you won't be able to afford the consequences. When the time comes, each of us will have to clean up the mess for you." Yun Lingzheng has already seen Yun Si's thoughts. , keep reminding you loudly.
Yun Si already understood it completely.
She struggled out of Huo Shenzhi's arms and opened the carriage curtain.
The cold rain hit her face with the wind.
Bone-piercing pain!
"Where's Lu He?"
"How could the wind and cold in winter lead to such a situation?"
"It's an epidemic!"
In the past few days, she only knew that Lu He was busy treating people, and he fainted several times from exhaustion.
As for Nan Jiang, she came back early and was no longer going to the medicine hall.
Now it seems that it was Lu He who knew it was an epidemic and deceived Nan Jiang back in advance and prevented her from going to the medicine hall!
Huo Shenzhi held Yun Si's wrist calmly: "After seven days, whatever you want to do, I won't stop you."
"Seven days?" Yun Si shook her head: "The people outside can't wait for seven days. Lu He is sick, and he can't wait for seven days either!"
Once she leaves, she will be able to live and escape completely.
But Lu He couldn't.
Neither can those common people.
There was no warmth in Huo Shenzhi's eyes, and he only replied to her calmly: "I will send all the doctors of the Duan family to Beijing to try their best to cure the disease."
Yun Si tensed up and looked at him.
At this time, Yun Jiangche also spoke out: "Si'er, at this time, you must not act out of emotion. If you really go, the child in your belly will be exposed. At that time, who do you want to say the child belongs to? All plans will be ruined in one day!"
Yun Si's breathing quickened: "A problem can be solved in thousands of ways. It wouldn't be a bad idea if there was a way to have both worlds... And I'm not going to the front line, I'm..."
"No!" Yun Lingzheng said in a deep voice: "If the sky falls, it has nothing to do with you!"
"When the powerful don't seek benefit for the people, but always think about benefiting themselves? And I don't mean to..."
"Shut up!" The coercion in Yun Lingzheng's eyes suddenly rose: "After gaining power, you will divide it 70% for yourself and 30% for the people. If you really want to find a clear leader in the world, even if you search all the vanity fairs in the world, you can't find even half of it. One! If there is, it will not end well!"
"Fifth brother!" Yun Si looked at Yun Jiangche.
This time, Yun Jiangche surprisingly agreed with them: "If you are poor, you can only take care of yourself; if you are rich, you can help the world. Now, you should take good care of yourself."
Yun Si's heart became colder little by little.
She placed her last hope on the person around her, hoping that he would know...
"Brother Ninth, the most important thing about our relationship and our affairs is to get the support of the people. Water can carry a boat and capsize it. The king is the one who has the support of the people. Moreover, that is Lu He! He is as sick as a tiger and delayed. Not even half a point. Giving up this game can save the people, win the hearts of the people, and give you and me multiple escape routes! We can think about it again and see if there is any other way to have both ends of the world! And I don’t have to save the people regardless. Myself, I..."
Should you save the people, or should you only care about yourself?
