Chapter 43: Infection
Prince Xia Yan compromised, however, this was only a temporary victory for Xia Huan.
Xia Huan also knew in his heart that if Xia Yan could get an edict from Emperor Chu or Empress Jing, then he would be able to blatantly implement his plan.
Time, for Xia Huan, is only one day at most.
However, Xia Huan had no clue how to deal with it.
"Your Highness, let's eat."
Perhaps also knowing the worry in Xia Huan's heart, Yu Meng's face also did not have much joy.
Xia Huan smiled a little bitterly, and took the pottery bowl from Yu Meng's hand.
There are so many people here, so many days have passed, and even food is starting to become a little scarce now.
In this era, in the morning, ordinary people also eat rice. And now, even the clay bowl served by Xia Huan was full of porridge.
"I don't know, how long can it last here......" Xia Huan opened his mouth and said while drinking porridge.
Yu Meng on the side wanted to speak several times, but in the end, he finally shut up.
"Ahem, ahem!"
Xia Huan, who was just about to take another sip of porridge, suddenly felt an itch in his throat before the porridge was poured into his mouth, and he couldn't help coughing.
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Yu Meng hurriedly asked.
"It doesn't matter." Xia Huan waved his hand, not taking this matter to heart.
Then the two fell silent again, silently drinking porridge.
After drinking the porridge, Xia Huan handed the bowl to Yu Meng again and said, "It still needs to be refined here." In addition to those who are sick and need special accommodation, it is also necessary to sort out the place in case of emergency. ”
"Whoa!" Yu Meng arched his hand in response.
"I'm going to go around first and calm people's hearts. Don't follow me. After Xia Huan finished speaking, he walked alone and walked in the direction of the workshop.
Li Xu's attack that night drove almost all the people who had gathered on the periphery of the workshop to the surroundings of the workshop.
However, there are no extra wooden huts or tents, and many people can only sit on the floor, some holding bowls and drinking porridge mechanically.
Even, not many people can pay attention to Xia Huan's arrival.
Xia Huan saw all this in his eyes, and he was even more anxious in his heart.
Along the way, the original desire to calm people's minds is gone, but instead they concentrate and think about how to deal with the upcoming crisis.
"Oops!"
Suddenly, Xia Huan, who was in deep thought, felt as if he had bumped into someone.
When she came back to her senses, she saw Chun Yujing taking her little entourage, that is, Ah Zheng, carrying medicinal herbs, as if she was going somewhere.
This happens to be the corner of an earthen embryo house, and it is inevitable that the two will collide together.
For Xia Huan, Chun Yujing didn't have much of a good face. A few days ago, the quarrel between the two was still in Chun Yujing's mind.
However, for Chun Yujing, Xia Huan didn't really want to be angry.
Seeing Chun Yujing's medicine fall to the ground, Xia Huan took the initiative to squat down and pick up the medicine for Chun Yujing.
And Chun Yujing saw that Xia Huan didn't mean to quarrel, so he squatted down silently and picked up the medicine.
The two of them looked like this, which made Ah Zheng on the side a little embarrassed. It's not to help pick up the medicine, it's not to stand there.
The medicine that fell looked like there were more than a dozen packets, and some even spilled out.
Xia Huan patiently rearranged these medicine bags one by one. On the other hand, Chun Yujing is the same.
There are always a lot of coincidences in the world, and the two who silently bowed their heads to pick up the medicine, but neither of them noticed each other. So much so that Xia Huan and Chun Yujing's hands accidentally touched each other.
It just so happened that Ah Zheng on the side saw this scene. Suddenly, he closed his eyes in fright.
Xia Huan also hurriedly withdrew his hand and smiled apologetically at Chun Yujing.
However, after Chun Yu was stunned slightly, he hurriedly stuffed the medicine in his hand into Ah Zheng's hand on the side. Then he grabbed Xia Huan's hand again.
This scene, after being seen by Ah Zheng, almost didn't stare down his eyes.
Chun Yujing's character, although she is not the kind of lady who is quiet and quiet, is not open enough to directly grab another man's hand.
"The body temperature is slightly high, and the pulse is much faster than ordinary people......" Chun Yujing grabbed Xia Huan's hand, his face became more and more ugly, and he muttered slightly.
Xia Huan didn't hear what Chun Yujing was saying, but pulled out his hand and said, "Miss Chunyu, please respect yourself!" ”
Seeing Xia Huan's appearance of not knowing the hearts of good people, Chun Yujing's anger immediately came up again.
"You know what! You yourself are infected with the plague, don't you know it yourself! Chun Yujing stomped his feet and said highly.
However, when Xia Huan heard this, a cold sweat suddenly broke out. Hurriedly covered Chun Yujing's mouth with his hand and pulled her towards a secluded place.
Ah Zheng on the side was also at a loss. What did he just hear, His Highness the Seventh, also suffering from the plague?
Ah Zheng, who was afraid that he had heard it wrong, hurriedly held the medicine and followed.
"Mmmm......mmmm
Chun Yujing struggled to pull Xia Huan's hand away, and then, with red eyes, glared at Xia Huan. It was as if he had been greatly wronged.
However, Xia Huan's face was as deep as water at this time. Before, his mind was on the problem. Now that I came back to my senses, I realized that it seemed to be a little uncomfortable.
Plagues, in general, are caused by the overgrowth of bacteria. Xia Huan was clear about this.
For bacteria, strong people naturally have stronger resistance.
Xia Huan has been learning martial arts with Chen An since he was a child, although he can't talk about high martial arts, but it is not a problem to strengthen his body.
In addition, as a prince, he has fine clothes and food, and his nutrition is naturally not comparable to that of a farmer.
Although Xia Huan also had some scruples about the plague, he couldn't talk about being really worried.
However, the truth still slapped Xia Huan hard. How can you stand by the river without getting your shoes wet, let alone those bacteria that you can't see or touch.
In fact, with Xia Huan's physique, it is not easy to be infected with the plague.
However, before that, Xia Huan rescued the disaster, and then arranged for people to return to their hometowns and repair the river, and there was almost no real rest in the affairs of the country.
Even after the arrival of the prince, in the past few days, he reminded him of fear, for fear that the prince would give an order to clear the payment. As a result, I never really had a good rest.
It's been almost a month.
Without a good rest for a month, even the strongest person will take a hit to the immune system. What's more, Xia Huan often needs to come into contact with those patients.
"Don't tell anyone about this!" Xia Huan stared at Chun Yujing and said word by word. After finishing speaking, he also glanced at Ah Zheng on the side.
Ah Zheng hurriedly nodded his head like a medicine, but Chun Yujing said: "You come with me, your current condition is not serious, and you should be able to control it." ”
In this regard, Xia Huan did not resist. Instead, he turned his head and said to Ah Zheng on the side: "Go and find General Yu immediately, I have something important to discuss!" ”
Ah Zheng nodded, didn't even want the medicine, spread his legs, and ran out.
