Chapter 34: The Poisoning Storm

For the next few days, the army continued as usual, hurrying during the day and resting at post stations along the road at night. Due to the harsh winter weather, the pace of the march slowed down correspondingly, and on the seventh day, it was only more than half of the journey.

These days, Xiaohan and Xiaoyu get along day and night, sharing the same bed and sleeping night and night, although there is no longer the blushing and heartbeat drama of the first day, but after all, they are invisibly closer than before. Compared with being in the house, they are more like a normal couple when they are outside.

In the early morning of the day, there was a snowstorm, and the army was stationed near the post station. In the evening, Lan'er pushed the door in with a bowl of rice and three plates of side dishes, Xiao Han stretched her neck and looked behind her, and said with some loss: "What about the prince, why is there no one at this point?" ”

Lan'er put down the tray and skillfully arranged the dishes and chopsticks, "I heard that someone in the army contracted a cough disease, and it was passed on to dozens of people in less than half a day. ”

"Cough disease...... Is it a very strict condition? In Xiao Han's subconscious, coughing didn't seem to be a serious illness.

Lan'er tilted her head and thought for a while, "Hmm...... A simple cold and flu cough can be cured in two days, but I heard from the grandmother in the house that if the cold and flu cannot be cured, and the condition is aggravated by a harsh environment, the severe cough may affect the lungs and turn into lung disease. When it comes to lung disease, Lan'er is obviously a little afraid, "Lung disease can kill people, and it is very contagious!" ”

Xiao Han thought about it secretly, then put the dishes and chopsticks down, and ran out: "Put the food first, I'll come back to eat it later!" ”

As soon as she slipped away, she ran to the area where the officers and soldiers were stationed on the opposite side of the post station, grabbed a small soldier and asked where she was.

"Are the soldiers getting better?"

Xiao Han heard his voice outside the account, and he was stern, it seemed that the situation was indeed not optimistic.

"Back to the prince, there are two or three tent soldiers who began to cough heavily, the medicines we brought, are all emergency trauma medicines, and the herbs in the store are only sporadi......

Judging from Zhang Zihe's tone, things have become more and more tricky.

"In addition, judging from the symptoms of everyone's cough, it doesn't seem to look like a cold or flu."

"Not a cold?"

Although Xiao Han didn't see his expression, he could imagine him frowning inside.

"People with colds and flu are often accompanied by chills and weakness, just like the princess did last night...... Most of the soldiers who coughed violently were normal, but they felt that their chests were unusually stuffy, there was a strong sense of irritation, and they felt a lack of air as if they were suffocating. ”

"How can it be so weird?" The voice inside paused, "That's it, let's go and check with this king, maybe we can find the crux of the problem." ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Han overheard, completely unaware that their conversation had ended, and there was no sound after waiting for a long time, and when he turned around in wonder, he was suddenly frightened by the two men in front of him who were staring at him stunned.

"You, you-" Xiao Han looked back at the tent, and then at the whispers and Zhang Zihe in front of him, he was really surprised, "Why are you behind me?" ”

Xiao Yu stared at her expressionlessly, obviously not surprised by her strange behavior, but Zhang Zihe was surprised, stepped forward and saluted: "The last general has seen the princess." Princess...... Why hide behind this tent? ”

"I ......" Xiao Han laughed dryly, scolding himself in his heart for why he always acted like a chicken and a dog every time he was doing something above board, he was really depressed. Oh, I just heard Lan'er say that there is a cough in the army, so I wanted to see if I could help......"

"You take care of yourself, and you are the greatest help." He said to her coldly, then turned around and walked out, "Let's go, Zihe." ”

"Yes." Zhang Zihe looked back and forth, and couldn't figure out what the situation was between the two people, so he bowed to the princess again and followed.

Xiao Han pouted and stomped his feet, "This guy ......"

Zhang Zihe came to the tent with the most severe symptoms, but stopped him from entering and said: "Lord Wang, everyone in this account is coughing badly, if you go in directly, I am afraid that it will be infectious." ”

Thinking about it secretly, this cough disease is extremely contagious, and it is lightly infected in different accommodation areas, not to mention the hardest hit area of this disease. If something goes wrong with me, I'm afraid the army will be even more chaotic. Thinking so, he ordered two pieces of cut coarse cloth to be found, and tied them half-covering his face to cover his mouth and nose.

After lifting the curtain and entering the account, it was indeed a chaotic scene of staggering and coughing, and Xiao Yu stepped forward to check on a few people, except for chest tightness and shortness of breath, chest pain, accompanied by dizziness and nausea, there was no other sign on the surface. He frowned, and glanced at Zhang Zihe helplessly.

"Sure enough......" A thoughtful female voice suddenly remembered at the door, and the two looked out and saw Lu Xiaohan standing at the door.

"No entry!" He shouted, trying to stop her from entering, but she was still a step too late, and she stepped into the account with her leg raised. Xiao Yu felt that he was a little angry, and he wanted to step forward and reprimand her a few words, but his body involuntarily made another reaction: he lifted his hand to untie the coarse cloth, and then quickly wrapped it around the back of her head to tie it, and the whole action was like a conditioned reflex without thinking.

Seeing this, Zhang Zihe hurriedly took off his coarse cloth and handed it to the prince: "Lord, you put on the mask of the last general first, and I will go out immediately to find another one." With that, he turned and was about to walk out.

"What are you looking for!" Xiao Han yelled at him and threw the sackcloth on the ground.

"Lu Xiaohan, don't mess around!" He lowered his voice and yelled at her.

Xiao Han ignored his scolding, walked around the tent, and said with a smile: "This is not an infectious disease at all, the culprit is it, it, it!" ”

The two of them followed the direction of her finger, but what they saw was a few baskets of burning charcoal.

"It's not sickness, it's poisoning." She lifted her chin slightly, confidently asserting to everyone.

"Poisoned?"

"I didn't eat anything, how could I get poisoned?"

"What kind of poison are we in!"

"Impossible, I'll stay in the account all day, where to go to the poison!"

Xiao Han raised his hand and snapped his fingers in the air, "You're to the point, the problem is that you haven't been out all day!" ”

The more Zhang Zihe listened, the more confused he became, "This ...... The princess's meaning, the generals really don't understand, and I hope the princess will make it clear! ”

"Okay, let me put it this way," Xiao Han circled around the two of them, "It's been a while since you took off your mask, do you smell anything unusual?" ”

After her reminder, the two of them noticed a faint pungent smell pouring in under their noses.
