Chapter 1033: The Plague (3)

In the days that followed, the number of soldiers who died of the plague continued to expand in the battle reports sent from the border gates.

On the first day, there were dozens, on the second day, on the second day, on the third day, on two or three hundred, on the fourth day, on the fifth day...... When the number of soldiers who died of the plague reached 1,000, no one at the court had the heart to discuss state affairs.

Everyone's attention and mind are on the same thing: when will this plague be stopped?

The imperial doctors are still on their way to the border pass, and the only thing the border army can rely on now is a group of military doctors.

In fact, it is not the first case of plague in the army. There have been at least two or three times in the past few decades. A lot of people die every time. Even the military doctor will lose a lot.

It is precisely because of this that everyone talks about it.

Truckloads of medicinal materials were transported from major pharmacies to the border gates.

At such times, the household department is not stingy. No one in the pharmacy dared to open a high price, and the purchase of medicinal materials was very smooth.

……

Gu Guanning also paid unprecedented attention to the border battle report. Every time a battle report arrived, she only got the news a little slower than Xiao Xu.

Chen Yueniang has also been worried and anxious recently, and her heart is uneasy. I haven't slept well for several days, and now there is a green shadow.

"Master, don't worry. Gu Wanning opened his mouth to comfort Chen Yueniang: "Ji Tong is the most shrewd and capable, there is a plague in the army, he will definitely avoid it cautiously." ”

Chen Yueniang cheered up and responded: "What Niangniang said is true." Ah Tong has been assertive since he was a child, and he is strong and independent. No matter where he was on an errand, I was very reassured of him. ”

That being said, how can a mother not think about her son in her heart?

Moreover, Xu Cang also went to the border!

Thinking of Xu Cang, who never knew how to look at people's faces in a roundabout way, Chen Yueniang couldn't help but sigh: "Don't be afraid of Niangniang's jokes when you say a word." The slave maid was not so worried about Ah Tong, but more worried about Xu Cang. ”

"He is not popular in the hospital, and he doesn't even have a friend. Along the way, I had to go with nine other imperial doctors. I'm just afraid that he will be stubborn and quarrel with others. ”

Chen Yueniang has a deeper layer of worries.

When Xu Cang arrived in the border army, he would definitely have to come into contact with the soldiers suffering from the plague. Although Xu Cang's medical skills are exquisite, he is afraid of everything.

What if Xu Cang can't come up with a prescription? What if Xu Cang is also infected with the plague? What if the soldiers on the other side are panicked and lose the battle......

Many whatevers surged in the chest, and finally, turned into a silent sigh.

Gu Wanning obviously knew what Chen Yueniang was thinking, pursed the corners of her mouth, and was about to open her mouth to speak, when Coral came in a hurry.

……

As soon as they saw the coral, Gu Wanning and Chen Yueniang's hearts tightened in unison.

Every time the little nobleman came to deliver a letter, the coral spoke.

"But the border army has sent a battle report again?" Gu Wanning blurted out.

Coral bowed his head and reported: "Yes, your father-in-law came to deliver a letter, saying that there is a military doctor in the border army who has lived in the barracks of the quarantined soldiers regardless of his own danger. Just to observe the illness of the soldiers who are suffering from the plague......"

Chen Yueniang's heart sank, and she subconsciously looked at Gu Wanning.

Gu Wanning's face turned slightly pale, but his eyes became darker and brighter: "This military doctor is Ah Yan." ”

Gu Guanning didn't use a question, and his tone was very affirmative.

Coral didn't dare to hide it, and answered with a wry smile.

Gu Wanning fell silent.

Chen Yueniang and Coral glanced at each other, and they both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

This Shen Jinyan ...... Huh!

With his temperament, it is not unusual for him to do such a thing.

It's just that the plague is extremely contagious, and when he lives in the isolated barracks, he is like stepping on the tip of a knife. If you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss.

When they heard the news, they were so anxious. What kind of feeling will Gu Guanning feel in his heart?

Gu Wanning is the best at hiding her thoughts, just looking at her like this, but she can't see much abnormality. Only his face was slightly white, and his eyes were deep.

"Niangniang, don't be impatient," Chen Yueniang cautiously comforted: "Shen Gongzi has studied medicine for many years, and his medical skills are no less than any famous doctor in the capital. If he dares to do this, he always has some certainty of self-preservation. ”

Coral glanced at Chen Yueniang with complicated eyes, and said softly: "Ji Tong was worried about Shen Gongzi, and lived in the barracks with Shen Gongzi. ”

Chen Yueniang: "......"

This time, the person who was pale and speechless became Chen Yueniang.

Gu Wanning opened his mouth, and sighed a little self-deprecatingly: "They are all masters who don't make people worry." It's just that thousands of miles away, we can't control what they want to do. It doesn't matter!"

Chen Yueniang's lips trembled, and she squeezed out a smile: "What Niangniang said is true." ”

It was Coral, who behaved quite strongly: "The slave believes that Shen Gongzi and Ji Tong will be safe." ”

……

Since that day, Gu Guanning has rarely taken the initiative to ask about the border battle report.

She has been thinking a lot lately, and occasionally she feels a dull pain in her stomach. If this continues, you have to move the tire gas. For the sake of the child, for the sake of his body, he has to force himself to calm down.

Blessings are incomparable, and disasters are not singular.

After working hard and worrying day and night, Xiao Xu finally couldn't stand it anymore, and fainted when he was discussing in the Jinluan Palace.

This fainting startled all the ministers.

Fu Zhuo and Cui Saburo were the closest, and they each stepped forward eagerly: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

The prince of Wei and the prince of Han also rushed forward. Han Wang Shizi subconsciously stretched out his hand to probe under Xiao Xu's nose...... The prince of Wei glared angrily.

Only then did the prince of Han Wang realize that his movements were inappropriate, and quickly withdrew his hand. A layer of cold sweat was already on his forehead.

If his actions just now were deliberately distorted by someone with a heart, it would be bad!

Fortunately, there was chaos in the court, and except for Fu Zhuo and Cui Saburo, no one noticed the recklessness of the prince of Han.

Soon, the envoy of the Yin Yuan led a group of imperial doctors to hurry over.

The ministers all retreated, and the majestic and spacious Jinluan Hall soon fell silent. The prince of Wei, the prince of Han, stayed, and his eyes full of concern fell tightly on Xiao Xu's unconscious face.

Fu Zhuo and Cui Saburo also wrinkled their brows with solemn expressions.

Xiao Xu's health is not as healthy as ordinary people, and in the past few years since he ascended the throne, he has been consumed a lot of energy and mental energy by heavy court affairs. The war in the past six months has made Xiao Xu even more worried.

Don't say that Xiao Xu can't stand it, if he changes them, I'm afraid it won't be much better.

Fortunately, Xiao Xu didn't stay in a coma for long, and with the full rescue of the imperial doctors, he woke up quickly.

When Xiao Xu woke up leisurely and opened his eyes, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Even the prince of Han Wang couldn't help but rejoice in his heart. At such times, Xiao Xu must not fall. Otherwise, there will be internal and external troubles, and the battle at the border will not be able to be fought again.

At the side door of the Jinluan Palace, there was a sound of footsteps.

Who dares to trespass on the Golden Luan Palace?

Everyone turned their heads to look at the past.
