Chapter 325: The Plague
() Qi Yuan remembered the confrontation with Concubine Shu in the harem that day, and couldn't help but feel cold, the whole room was full of murderous aura, Xue Tan frowned, and patted Qi Yuan's shoulder, which made him calm again.
The old gentleman continued.
Qi Yuan came to his senses from his memories and looked at the old doctor with cold eyes, his face was expressionless.
"Back then, for some reason, you suffered from a very serious wind chill, and some infectious diseases, and you were covered with rashes, which made people inside and outside the imperial city panic, and the imperial doctors spared their lives and refused to treat you, so they found me as a charlatan." The old man smiled and held out an arm.
The old doctor pulled up his cuffs, revealing a missing piece of flesh on his arm.
"Here, it was the rash that infected you in the first place, and there was a large pustule of pus, and after I burned the dagger, I ripped it off, leaving such a scar from now on."
Qi Yuan looked over, and there was indeed a large scar at the bottom of the bowl, with a dent on it.
"Sir, you never mentioned it to me." Xue Tan was also taken aback, he didn't expect him to have such an experience?
"This was all before the sixth child came to me." The old doctor shook his head, "When the prince was brought back from outside the city, he was infected with this strange disease, which was extremely contagious, and the emperor ordered people to lock him up in the East Palace, and he was not allowed to go out. ”
"Back then, those imperial doctors were terrified, and no one dared to approach the East Palace, so I was ordered to receive the emperor's order and go to heal." The old man raised his eyes, his eyes full of fear.
"What if it can't be cured?" Xue Tan asked tentatively, causing Qi Yuan to glance at him.
"If it can't be cured...... the old doctor was silent for a moment, "I want the people in the palace to be buried with him, besides, the crown prince was also terminally ill at the beginning, and there is no cure, if it continues, I am afraid that the people of the entire palace will be infected by it." ”
Qi Yuan's eyes widened, refusing to believe what he had heard.
"You mean to say that Huang Ama once thought about ...... Kill me? ”
"Exactly." The old man nodded lightly, agreeing with Qi Yuan's idea.
Qi Yuan only felt that his hands and feet were cold, and the emperor Amma, whom he once loved, actually wanted to make such a move and give up
Che Baoshuai, he can't accept it anyway.
"Don't be surprised, Prince." The old divine doctor shook his head and saw the clue, "The illness of the year has spread to the capital, and you are not the only one who has been infected with that disease, as long as you have been out of the palace, I am afraid that you have all had it, in my opinion, it is the medicine powder of the Huo Meng clan." ”
"What does that have to do with that?" Seeing that Qi Yuan was not interested, Xue Tan had to continue asking questions instead of him.
"The body of the person who was controlled by the dream did not decompose for a long time after death, and there was a bad smell, and many people buried it in a mass grave outside the capital, which caused the plague, and it was not until later that I found a secret cure for the plague that prevented the disaster from happening."
Originally, Qi Yuan thought that it was just a disaster caused by Concubine Shu, but he didn't expect that it would involve so many people.
"But I have never been able to find a way to interpret dreams, if a person dies, what is the use of me going to heal and control the occurrence of the plague?" The old man felt sorry for a while, as if he had caused what had happened back then.
"The old gentleman doesn't have to blame himself." Qi Yuan advised.
"How did you say the plague was cured?"
"Huang Lingcao." The old man had a wisp of beard and a look of arrogance.
I found that even though the plague was so spreading, the Huangling grass next to the mass grave had bloomed as before, and I suspected that its essence was the antidote to the plague, so I first found a palace maid to experiment, boiled the medicine to cure the wind and cold with the Huangling grass, and fed it to the infected palace maid, and found that her condition was improving day by day, and then gradually applied it to everyone. ”
"That's really Mr. Law." Qi Yuan said politely, it can be said that the old man in front of him is his savior.
"Saving a life is better than creating a seventh-level floating slaughter, whether it is the life of the prince or the lives of other people, it is the same in my eyes." The old doctor waved his hand.
"It's just that things were done too viciously at that time, and I only suspect the spread of the plague, and besides, the emperor has been mourning Niangniang's death and has no intention of investigating these."
Qi Yuan was silent and kept silent, he didn't expect that this man who said that Yin Qingqi was his weakness was so affectionate and righteous at the beginning, and he also made a choice between Jiangshan and his mother.
The country is great, for the country and the people, if you can't even give up a woman, what else can you talk about?
Qi Yuan remembered,
This is what the emperor said to himself, but now it is just a joke.
"Since the dream control has such a big consequence, it seems that we have to go to the Nanzhao region." Xue Tan and Qi Yuan glanced at each other and strengthened their will.
Originally, Xue Tan just wanted to agree to Qi Yuan's request for Yin Qingqi, but now, the destruction of Yangzhou City is vivid, and Xue Tan does not want to repeat the old drama.
"When are we leaving?" Xue Tan turned his head and asked Qi Yuan.
"There's no hurry." Unexpectedly, Qi Yuan simply responded to these two words, "When the sixth master escaped from the palace, there must be some facts that have not been said, and I will investigate for a few days, and then I will not be in a hurry." ”
"Besides, I will never allow Yin Qingqi to have such a person by his side, and he is also threatening our lives at all times, although in terms of martial arts, he is old and is not our opponent, but after all, he was also a person of twelve hours, whether it is strategy or means, he is better than us, this kind of person is too dangerous to stay around."
Qi Yuan thought deeply, thinking left and right, he would rather delay the trip than place such an uneasy person by his side.
"Sir, thanks to you, what happened back then."
Qi Yuan thanked the old divine doctor, "If you have any requests, just mention them, as long as I can do it." ”
"No requirements." The old man hurriedly waved his hand, "It's just that when I was in the capital, I met a girl, she was as beautiful as a flower, and she was captivating the country, and now she has been dead for many years, I have been pure-hearted, and I don't have enough silver to set up a monument for her, I want to implore the prince to set up a monument for him in Yangzhou, in order to comfort her in the spirit of heaven." ”
"Okay, I promise you." Qi Yuan nodded, this matter can be done easily, and for Qi Yuan, it is nothing.
"Old man, don't be too sad." Qi Yuan looked at the old man's spreading pain, he couldn't bear it, and his expression softened a lot.
"Alas, after all these years, I'm afraid, I'm going to see her too." The old man smiled and shook his head, "I have nothing to hurt, I just cry with joy." ”
I couldn't imagine that there were such infatuated people in the world, which also moved Qi Yuan.
"By the way, old man, I heard General Xue say that you once healed a girl named Qin Louyu?"
Xue Tan narrowed his eyes, and his eyes suddenly changed......
