127. Epidemic times

Hearing the light cloud's inquiry, Imperial Physician Xu looked up at Mo Xuan, who was standing with his hands in his hands opposite, and said with a solemn and respectful expression: "Back to the ninth princess, judging from the symptoms and pulse, the noble concubine Niangniang has the epidemic, and she has not been diagnosed and treated in time, so it is so serious!" ”

"Epidemic?!"

When everyone heard this, their expressions changed suddenly, and the four of the concubine's personal palace maids, Ruqin, were even more frightened, and they all felt uncomfortable at this time.

It is important to know that since ancient times, very few people have survived the epidemic, and the disease is extremely contagious, so it is no wonder that people will listen to it.

The clear eyes circulated between the frightened people, and the light clouds and beautiful faces were condensed, as if there was an invisible pressure that made everyone tremble, and they lowered their heads one after another, not even daring to breathe.

"As far as this palace knows, the epidemic is generally caused in the summer, how can the concubine get the epidemic?"

"The ninth princess doesn't know that this disease is caused by feeling unhealthy qi, and this is the plague of the sky." Doctor Xu Taiyi weighed the words and said: "The medical Tao says that people are born by the nourishment of heaven and earth, and grow according to the four times of alternating trustworthiness, and the sky has four seasons and five elements, so that people have five internal organs and five qis, and they will be born with joy, anger, sorrow, and fear, and if they go against the time and go against the times, they will hurt their bodies and be susceptible to the disease of the epidemic and evil qi for a while. ”

The implication is that the concubine suffered from the epidemic because of her emotional instability and weakness, which has nothing to do with the season.

Looking at Mo Xuan, who was noncommittal, Qingyun hid his doubts and said, "In this way, there will be too much trouble for the Imperial Doctor." ”

"The concubine Niangniang has passed the best diagnosis and treatment period, and the courtier's medical skills are limited, so she can only do her best!" Imperial Physician Xu sighed heavily, after all, no one has been able to cure the epidemic since ancient times, and looking at the attitude of Master Mo, I am afraid that he will be helpless.

Understanding Imperial Physician Xu's concerns, Qingyun said solemnly: "Imperial Physician Xu tried his best to heal the concubine, everything is borne by the palace and King Chun, does King Chun say yes?" ”

Before Sima Chun could speak, Zhang Lianwu had already preemptively said: "Mo Gongzi has excellent medical skills, I believe that with Mo Gongzi, the mother concubine will be able to recover soon." ”

"What if you don't make a move?" Glancing at Zhang Lianwu coldly, the corners of Mo Xuan's lips slightly raised a smile that seemed to be mocking and arrogant.

The cold eyes that seemed to be like a thousand-year-old cold pool shook Zhang Lianwu's heart, and her face was still worried and anxious, and people who didn't know the way thought that she and the concubine were really in love with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law: "Mo Gongzi is unwilling to save his mother, we will not be difficult, but the world knows that Mo Gongzi has always been the only one who obeys the order of the ninth princess, and I am afraid that it will be ......."

"Concubine Zhang kept saying that she would not be difficult to be strong, but there were insinuations between the words, what Concubine Zhang meant, could it be that the concubine could not be healed because of the palace?"

"The concubine has no such intention!" Zhang Lianwu knelt down and defended: "As we all know, the ninth princess has always been benevolent, and the concubine implores the ninth princess to let Mo Gongzi treat her mother's concubine, and the prince and the concubine will be grateful to Dade......

"Shut up!" Sima Chun had tried every possible means to win back Qingyun's heart, but Qingyun always said that he was busy with court affairs and avoided it, and now he finally had the opportunity to get close to Qingyun, how could he allow others to sabotage it? What's more, if he wants to condescend to the noble and beg the enemy to treat his mother, he can't save this face.

"Whether or not Mo Gongzi is willing to treat his mother is Mo Gongzi's business, what does it have to do with Jiu'er?" glared at Zhang Lianwu, who wanted to speak and stopped, Sima Chun turned his eyes to look at Imperial Physician Xu: "Although Imperial Physician Xu is relieved to diagnose and treat his mother's concubine, if anyone dares to embarrass Imperial Physician Xu, this king will never spare him!" ”

Glancing at Sima Chun, who was eager to please Qingyun, Zhang Lianwu lowered his eyes slightly and a hint of mockery flashed.

I don't know what to do!

Everyone knows that the epidemic is an incurable disease, not to mention Imperial Doctor Xu, even if Mo Xuan is afraid, he is powerless, and when the time comes, they will use the topic to play, even if Mo Xuan takes all the responsibility, Mu Qingyun will be difficult to get out of it, so as to lose the hearts of the people, King Chun can rise to the top, why not do such a clever plan to kill three birds with one stone?

Imperial Physician Xu hesitated a little when he heard this, so he raised his eyes to look at Qingyun, and saw her nodding, so he was relieved.

"The minister will go back to the hospital to study the prescription, but although the high fever of the concubine has subsided, the next few days are still dangerous and abnormal, and someone must take care of it every inch for twelve hours, in addition, all the things used by the concubine must be burned and isolated for treatment, so as not to infect others."

"This matter will be arranged by the palace, you just have to study the prescription."

"Yes, the minister is retiring!" Doctor Xu left Yanqing Palace after saluting.

Lin Yiwei stood quietly aside, as if it didn't exist.

Looking down at the four Ruqin people kneeling on the ground, Qingyun's faint tone was full of clarity and majesty: "The concubine is sick, why don't you ask the imperial doctor to come to the doctor for treatment as soon as possible?" Why didn't it be submitted in time? ”

"Slave maid ......" The four of them trembled uncontrollably, and their faces instantly turned pale.

The other three all looked at Ruqin in unison, relying on the weight of the concubine Niangniang, she didn't bully them on weekdays, and of course she would bear the responsibility if something happened.

Knowing that the three of them were taking the opportunity to take revenge, Ruqin glared back at them fiercely, and her gloomy eyes clearly said: Idiot, do you think it's okay to shift all the responsibility to me? Don't forget, the four of us are the personal palace maids of the concubine Niangniang, and no one can get rid of it if something happens, if the concubine Niangniang has three long and two short, everyone in Yanqing Palace will have to bury the concubine Niangniang!

As if they understood the meaning expressed in Ruqin's eyes, the three of them were suddenly frightened: they were still young, and they didn't want to be buried!

Looking at the small movements of the four of them, the eyebrows under Qingyun's eyes contained Ling Yan: "Say!" ”

The four of them couldn't help but be shocked.

Ruqin trembled and said: "Back to the ninth princess, a few days ago, the slave maid saw that the spirit of the concubine was a little bad, so she said to ask the imperial doctor, but the concubine only said that it was because of poor sleep, and it was the New Year, so she refused to bother the imperial doctor, and also strictly ordered the slave and maid not to show the emperor and the ninth princess, and the slave and maid had to obey the will of the concubine Niangniang, who knew that today a noble concubine Niangniang suddenly had a high fever and did not go away, and the person was unconscious, so the slave and maid hurriedly went to ask the imperial doctor...... The slave didn't know that the concubine Niangniang would get the epidemic, so she asked the ninth princess to learn from it! ”

"Bold slave!" Zhang Lianwu scolded angrily: "It is a sin to fail to fulfill the responsibility of taking care of the master, and it is an unforgivable sin to shift the responsibility to the master!" Slaves and maidservants who have committed such crimes should be severely punished to set an example, otherwise everyone will follow suit, and will not everyone climb to the head of their master to make a blessing? The latter sentence was addressed to Qingyun.

"The slave maid is true, and she will never dare to hide it in the slightest, and ask the ninth princess for mercy!" The four kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

looked at Zhang Lianwu, who was righteous and awe-inspiring, and then looked at the four Ruqin who were begging hard, and she was about to say something, but she heard Lin Yiwei say quietly: "Ninth princess, I don't know if I can listen to the concubine say a few words?" ”

Qingyun looked at Lin Yiwei's eyes with a hint of playfulness: "Please speak!" ”

"The four of them are indeed at fault first, but now the mother concubine needs someone to serve her, and others may not be as familiar with the life habits of the mother concubine as they are, so the concubine asks the ninth princess for a favor for them, hoping that the ninth princess can allow them to make amends for their crimes, and I believe they will do their best to take care of the mother concubine."

Hearing this, Zhang Lianwu glared at Lin Yiwei fiercely.

Don't look at Lin Yiwei's usual inconspicuousness, but every time she fights, she is defeated by her, and she knows that she is not simple.

Which tendon is wrong with her today, she actually helped Mu Qingyun, could it be that she has long been in cahoots with Mu Qingyun?

Qingyun suddenly couldn't understand Lin Yiwei.

It is said that the concubine is her aunt, and it is closely related to her glory and wealth, the life and death of the concubine is unknown, she should be the most anxious and indignant, but she has always been silent, but she will intercede for the four of Ruqin, which is really incredible.

Also, she knew that she and the concubine and the prime minister's mansion were as deep as the sea, and knew that she wanted to eradicate the concubine's minions, not only did she not stop it, but also tactfully reminded her, so that she not only had a good reputation for treating her subordinates, but also got rid of the four Ruqin in disguise, after all, the concubine was almost hopeless, and let the four of them serve the concubine, and in the end it was difficult to escape death.

Why did she help herself? She is the niece of the concubine and the granddaughter of the prime minister, the Lin family treats her badly but not badly!

"King Chun, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

In the past, when this kind of thing happened, Sima Chun had already ordered someone to beat them to death, but now he wanted to save Qingyun's heart, so he naturally listened to her for everything.

"Everything is at the disposal of Jiu'er."

"In that case." Qingyun looked down at the four of Ruqin: "You are negligent and slack to delay the best time to treat the condition of the concubine, you should be severely punished, for the sake of Concubine Lin's intercession for you, this palace will temporarily leave you alive, and each will play thirty boards to show punishment, if you don't know how to do your duty, this palace will punish you for several crimes!" Do you all remember? ”

"The slave and maid thank the ninth princess for not killing her, and the slave and maid must serve the concubine with all her heart!" The faces of the four of them were like ashes, but they had to kowtow to thank them, and at the same time did not forget to thank Lin Yiwei.

Although the capital crime was temporarily exempted, the noble concubine Niangniang was suffering from the epidemic, and they still died in the end?

"As for the others, as the palace people of Yanqing Palace, whether it is the master's reluctance to seek medical treatment, or the negligence of the big maids, when the master's illness does not heal for several days, there should be some reminders or persuasions, but you are indifferent, it is really hateful! Come on, drag it down and play ten boards! ”

Dozens of guards immediately walked in and dragged all the pale-faced Yanqing Palace's maids and eunuchs to the courtyard, including the four Ruqin.

Looking at the light cloud with an indifferent expression, Lin Yiwei's slightly drooping eyes flashed with an unintended light.

Obviously, everyone has believed Ruqin's words, coupled with the nine princesses' extremely clever words, everyone is afraid that they will be very resentful of the concubine at this time, who will be loyal to the concubine in the future? Otherwise, next time it will be as simple as replaying the top ten boards.

Ordered the guards to burn all the items used by the concubine, and asked the internal affairs department to notify the internal affairs department to purchase a new batch and send it, Qingyun stepped into the inner room to see the concubine, and Lu Po immediately whispered to dissuade him.

The ninth princess is not strong, if she is accidentally infected with the epidemic again, it will be terrible!

Shaking her head slightly, signaling her not to worry, Qingyun walked into the inner room.

Seeing that there was no unusual look on the face of the Mo Gongzi who was following the princess, Lu Po suppressed the doubts in his heart and followed Qingyun inch by inch.

On the wide bed, the concubine lay quietly with her eyes closed, her brows furrowed and she slept very unsteadily, her pale face was unusually flushed, her neck was a little frighteningly swollen, and even some parts began to burst, accompanied by bursts of filth.

Looking at the concubine in such a miserable situation, Qingyun secretly sighed.

The concubine has always cared most about her appearance, but now this appearance is still a little glamorous and moving in the past?

Glamorous?

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Qingyun's mind, could it be......

Sima Chun only glanced at his mother and quickly looked away, Zhang Lianwu looked worried, and Lin Yiwei's eyes were lowered, making it difficult to see her expression.

"Although there are palace maids who serve the concubines, but in the end they are not as good as their relatives, does King Chun say yes?"

"Jiu'er has a point." As a son of man, he should have done his filial piety in front of the bed, but he had more important things to do, Sima Chun turned his eyes to look at Zhang Lianwu and Lin Yiwei, and before he could speak, Zhang Lianwu said eagerly: "The concubine's hand injury has not healed, I am afraid that she will not be able to take good care of the concubine." ”

Sima Chun stared straight at Zhang Lianwu, with undisguised anger and hatred in his eyes.

Yesterday, he saw her painting in the room, but now he said that his hand injury has not healed, and he is obviously afraid of being infected with the epidemic and making excuses.

If the concubine really has three strengths and two shortcomings, he will definitely let this selfish slut bury the concubine!

Seeing the glow in Sima Chun's eyes, Zhang Lianwu was suddenly shocked, and saw the light cloud on the side who seemed to be smiling, only to realize that he was in the light cloud, and it was too late to make up for it, so he had to purse his lips and stop talking.

Qing's eyes swept over the two people with different expressions, and the corners of Qingyun's lips slightly raised a demonic sneer.

"The concubine stayed to take care of the concubine." Lin Yiwei said suddenly.

Sima Chun's expression was relieved when he heard this, and he stepped forward to take Lin Yiwei's hand, and said softly: "Wei'er, it's hard for you like this!" ”

Without revealing a trace, she pulled out the hand held by Sima Chun, and Lin Yiwei said quietly: "Taking care of the mother concubine is originally a matter of the concubine's responsibility, and the concubine does not dare to say bitterness!" Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Qingyun.

Seeing Lin Yiwei's indifferent and quiet gaze, and the bright moon standing behind her, Qingyun was thoughtful.

Ordered the guards to put Yanqing Palace under full martial law, and without her will, no one was allowed to enter and leave at will until the concubine recovered!

"The concubine is not suffering from the epidemic!" At this time, there were only three people outside the closed gate of Yanqing Palace, Qingyun, Mo Xuan and Lu Po.

"It's a drug!"

"Someone wants to put the concubine to death?"

"I think that person wants to protect the concubine, after all, the capital is a little unpeaceful during this time!"

"It's the one who's been hiding in the shadows!"

"Since he is willing to protect the concubine, it can be seen that the concubine is extremely important to him!" Hearing Qingyun instruct Wuying to investigate the life and deeds of the concubine, Mo Xuanhu wondered, "Why do you suddenly want to investigate the concubine?" ”
