Chapter 296: The Epidemic
After walking out of the alley and entering the back door of the Yuanning Hou Mansion, Cai's mother sneered: "He Xiangu, what a thing!"
Speaking of this He Xiangu, don't listen to this name to get a good sound, it is a big Jianghu warlock, specializing in cheating. Not only that, but also specially involved in the affairs of the back house of those large families, such as the main room of a large family to calculate the concubine who was pregnant with a child, and did not want the child she gave birth to to stay in the house, so he invited this goddess to come over, and did it in a matter-of-fact manner, saying that the child born to this concubine would block the feng shui fortune in the house, etc., causing the dislike of the head of the family, so as to achieve the wish of the main house. Because of this, that He Xiangu was very famous in the circle of concubines in the capital, and there were more than a dozen famous families who befriended her, and she became famous and famous for a while.
Cai's mother asked Luo Pozi to invite this person this time, of course, to deal with the old lady.
The old lady will never know about the matter between the second lady and the second son of the Wumuhou Mansion, so the only way is to make the old lady unconscious, so that it is possible to buy time and let the eldest lady persuade the second lady. Even if other people in the mansion know, as long as the old lady can't take care of things, then the entire Yuanning Hou Mansion is the world of the big house, and even if the second room is scheming, it won't be able to make much waves if it is pressed by the big house.
After finishing the matter, Cai's mother went back to report to the eldest lady. The eldest lady nodded and said, "You are doing a good job, we must move quickly, if we are taken advantage of by the second room, we will suffer." ”
******
Two days later, news suddenly came from Shunji Temple. Said that the old lady was sick.
The old lady's illness came violently, and the illness came like a mountain, and the whole person collapsed. When it first started. I kept coughing day and night, and I had a high fever, but after only two days, I vomited blood, which was very scary.
Moreover, the disease seems to be contagious, and those in the old lady's house who have served the old lady. All of them fell ill and had the same symptoms of vomiting blood as the old lady.
The second master was frightened, and hurriedly handed over the post to the Taiyi Pavilion in person. Please ask the chief physician, Imperial Physician Hu, to come and have a look.
Imperial Doctor Hu came over to take a look, his brows suddenly furrowed, and he didn't say anything, just asked the second master to prepare quickly. Segregate all the people in the Shun Ci Monastery. All the yards should be disinfected with vinegar, all used items should be soaked in boiling water for disinfection, and medicine powder should be prescribed for everyone to take.
All of a sudden, people in the house were panicked and rumors spread.
This rumor soon spread to Liu Yun Courtyard.
Lu Shui explained the events of the Shunci Courtyard 1510 clearly, clearly, and even the cats and dogs raised in the Shunci Courtyard were sick. All spoken.
After saying that, he turned his head. Seeing Gu Zhirong leaning against the window, he frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
She couldn't help but say, "Miss, my mouth is sour, you still tell me what you think, right?"
Gu Zhirong was a little puzzled: "I didn't think much about it." ”
Mu Jin glanced at Gu Zhirong: "Miss, you know the most in this regard, so let's talk about it." ”
Gu Zhirong walked to the couch, sat on it, and said, "Green Water, listen to your description, if my guess is correct, this should be a plague." ”
"Plague?" the faces of those present changed suddenly.
You must know that at this time, being infected with the plague is equivalent to a death sentence, and there is no cure. And this kind of death is not a matter of two people, but a big matter of a village connected to a village, and a region is connected to a region, so when Mu Jin and the others heard their young lady say this, they couldn't help but feel fear.
"Don't worry, Imperial Doctor Hu is a very famous doctor, and he can handle these things. Gu Zhirong said, "Imperial Physician Hu is very correct in doing this, the plague is focused on prevention and control, in order to prevent more people in the mansion from being infected, you must strictly follow what Imperial Physician Hu said......
Gu Zhirong was about to continue when he heard Mingyue say, "Imperial Doctor Hu, why are you here?"
Gu Zhirong looked up and saw that Imperial Physician Hu was carrying a medicine box, hurriedly stepping into the courtyard and walking towards the main hall.
"Imperial Physician Hu, what's wrong?" Gu Zhirong hurriedly walked to the door and personally welcomed Imperial Physician Hu in.
sat down and served tea, Gu Zhirong looked at him, landed on his anxious face, and frowned slightly: "Imperial Doctor Hu, you are not with the old lady, why did you come to me?"
Imperial Physician Hu looked around, Gu Zhirong understood what he meant, and glanced at Mu Jin. Mu Jin immediately walked over and sent all the others in the house out, while he stood guard at the door.
"Miss Gu Wu. Seeing that there were no other people around, Imperial Doctor Hu didn't care about anything, and said with a solemn expression, "The old lady's condition is not very good." ”
Gu Zhirong was taken aback: "Is it serious?"
In fact, she went to the old lady's courtyard several times, but was stopped by the person arranged by Imperial Doctor Hu who was guarding the gate of the courtyard, saying that it meant Imperial Doctor Hu. Since she couldn't get in, she respected Imperial Doctor Hu and went back to her courtyard to wait, and sure enough, Imperial Doctor Hu soon came to the door.
"I'll go see the old lady. Gu Zhirong immediately stood up, turned around and was about to walk out.
Imperial Physician Hu hurriedly said, "Miss Gu Wu, please stay." In fact, the old lady's condition did not develop to a serious level, and it was temporarily controlled. The situation in Shunjiyuan is also starting to improve......"
Gu Zhirong interrupted him: "Imperial Doctor Hu, but you just said it clearly......"
Imperial Physician Hu said with a serious expression: "Miss Gu Wu, don't you think it's strange? How can this plague be said to be out of the way, and it is so serious when it starts......
Gu Zhirong's beautiful eyebrows frowned even tighter: "Imperial Doctor Hu, do you suspect that someone deliberately spread the plague?"
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head: "It's impossible, there is always a source of disease, and I don't seem to have heard of a plague anywhere recently." ”
Imperial Physician Hu shook his head: "Recently, Baojian Hall received a news that a plague broke out in a small village and town in Yuedi recently, and almost all the people in a village died. Therefore, this time Mingkong and Xuanhe went to Yuedi to see the epidemic there. ”
"No wonder the two of them were so mysterious when they left that they didn't even tell me. Gu Zhirong then remembered, "Actually, does this matter need to be so mysterious? As a doctor, it is normal to care about the epidemic there, why do you have to be so mysterious?"
Imperial Physician Hu was silent for a while, and then suddenly said, "Miss Gu Wu, if I say that the plague in your Yuanning Marquis Mansion was not spontaneous, but someone deliberately wanted to bring it in, what would you think?"
"Someone brought it in?" Gu Zhirong was taken aback, "How is this possible?"
Imperial Physician Hu frowned: "How is this impossible? Just bring out one of the people infected with the plague in that village, bring them to the capital, and bring them to your Yuanning Marquis Mansion, isn't it okay?"
Gu Zhirong shook his head: "How can a person infected with the plague be able to travel a long distance? I'm afraid that if I didn't bring it to the capital, all of them were infected and died. ”
Dr. Hu said: "They have medicine that can control the condition. Moreover, they will also take medicine to prevent it. ”
Gu Zhirong was stunned for a moment, and said in a lost voice: "Who are these people, why are they doing this?" (To be continued.) )
