Chapter 0441: Du Xiaoying
Unlike those who died before, there were more or less wounds on their bodies, and they didn't get enough treatment and died, although Lu Xiangsheng was sad, he didn't worry about anything, but this time there was no wound on the body. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
So it was obvious that this was some kind of disease, Lu Xiangsheng didn't step forward to look at it in person, but after getting the report from his subordinates, his face began to be cloudy, so he put a towel on his face and stepped forward to look, the body was still warm.
Even if it is not a long time before the death of the person, there are still a few hours, and the summer weather is hot but the heat dissipates a lot at night, so this body temperature is still a little unusual, maybe it is typhoid fever, right? Lu Xiangsheng thought a little apprehensive in his heart.
Typhoid fever is a common disease in spring and summer, and it also has the possibility of death, but it is really palpitating to happen at this moment, and the corpse is a person who is about forty or fifty years old, and the people dressed in rough clothes look like a poor family, Lu Xiangsheng sighed secretly and then interrogated, how many people like this he can help one can not help everyone, and then his face is even more cloudy, he keenly feels that what he has been worried about for so long finally happened.
Before the breath was broken, the people used to be feverish, vomiting and diarrhea, which lasted for half a month, becoming more and more serious, and it was even difficult to eat in the last few days, and they could only drink white water to barely survive, and they had to see the doctor diagnose it as typhoid fever, and they had no money to treat the disease, so they resigned themselves to fate after prescribing a few doses of medicine, until they died.
Lu Xiangsheng felt a chill coming out of his heart, and his eyes stared straight at an official who came with him, and said angrily, "Why! Why didn't you tell me in advance about something so important! Do you know what that means! ”
The middle-aged official had a long beard, a ruddy complexion, and a slight arch on his back to look very humble, but Lu Xiangsheng didn't buy it, and his eyes exuded an increasingly penetrating gaze that almost burst into flames.
The official nodded his head and looked very aggrieved in his heart, if it was just an ordinary person who was sick and had to report you, the top few leaders in the capital, then you don't have to do anything every day, just know where someone is uncomfortable...
"It's... The lower officials don't know that there are people under their rule who have suffered this calamity, otherwise the lower officials will definitely tell the adults truthfully..."No matter what he thinks in his heart, this official still says righteous words, even if he thinks that Lu Xiangsheng is really a little too nervous, just a few people will die? Not to mention that the capital is so crowded now, even if it was before, it was not a big deal, "The people will not report to the government when they are sick, otherwise the lower officials will definitely do their best to save it..."
"It was better to do so!" Lu Xiangsheng snorted coldly and gritted his teeth and said, he had heard a lot of clichés and didn't want to pursue them, his heart was full of calm, and he looked at the people around him and began to reflect, it was extremely rare to start getting angry before everything was figured out, after all, it was due to the fact that he had been too depressed during this time, but such an attitude gave a lot of information to the onlookers, and a thin little girl stood up and asked a little timidly, "Master Guan, as long as you say it, you will have money to treat your illness..."
The little girl's tone was extremely soft and weak, and the mosquito and fly lacked too much confidence, but it was still unusually loud when the surrounding crowd did not dare to come out, Lu Xiangsheng frowned and looked at the source of the voice, but the middle-aged official's face was stunned and then turned red, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
Treating a small person is not a big deal for him, but... His body trembled, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat behind his back, he really had to be sick.
Lu Xiangsheng beckoned, his face softened, this is a thin and distressing little girl, about ten years old, her face is dirty and her skin is very rough, and her eyes are rolling with an expectant look.
"Who's sick in the family...?" The scene in front of him is not sad at all, the scene is not even one thousandth of the tragedy on the battlefield, but Lu Xiangsheng's heart is a little sour, maybe no matter how strong a man is, he has his own soft side in his heart, he tried his best to make his tone kind, but people who have spent more than forty years with a straight face all day are really not used to it, and his tone is extremely stiff.
"My mother is sick..."The little girl raised her head and said it with a little hesitation, the expectation in her eyes was even more but there was still some very obvious fear, she felt that everyone's eyes were focused on her face at this time, and the little girl who had never been the focus of attention was very panicked, but when she thought of her mother who was sick in bed, she still mustered up courage.
"Let's go, take Ben... I'm going to see your mother! Lu Xiangsheng took the little girl's hand expressionlessly and said, he also found that he didn't have that kind talent, so he returned to normal, and instantly turned back to the officers and soldiers and ordered, "Ask from door to door how many people have this situation, and then call the doctors of the whole city, and it is bound to find out as soon as possible." ”
The little girl felt her little hand being grasped by a big rough hand, and she felt very relieved and walked towards her home, this big hand with wrinkles and calluses was a little uncomfortable, but it could give her a great sense of security.
"Master Guan, did you kill those bad guys who always bully Xiaoying on the street?" The little girl blinked her eyes and looked very clear, and after walking for a while, the apprehension in her heart disappeared, and her voice was as moving as a yellow warbler.
"Don't call me Master Guan, just call me Grandpa..."Lu Xiangsheng felt a little relieved in his heart, and this time he naturally showed a slight smile, "As for the bad guys you said, they are damned!" Lu Xiangsheng has never been merciful to this person who still wants to steal chickens and dogs and fish in troubled waters, but petty thieves are directly executed if they are caught, and the bigger malicious murder is to directly punish the three clans.
"Oh, your name is Xiaoying? Grandpa is really confused, I don't know what the name of the little girl is? Who else is in the family? Lu Xiangsheng stopped with the little girl, this is a small thatched hut built temporarily, if it weren't for the good security in the capital, this little girl may have had an accident, Lu Xiangsheng suddenly felt that it was worth killing so many people before, although he didn't feel that he was wrong before.
"Official... Woo... Grandpa, my name is Du Xiaoying. Du Xiaoying's face was gloomy but changed her words quickly, "The family is close to Xiaoying, and Grandpa Lu has arrived." ”
Pushing the door in, a low voice that didn't contain much life sounded hoarse and eagerly, "Xiaoying... Xiaoying... Are you going to be angry with your mother? Tell you not to go out..."
The voice stopped abruptly, the female voice on the straw mat became more and more anxious and frightened, and through the moonlight, he could clearly see a figure holding his daughter's hand, "This official... What are you doing here, Xiaoying, if you don't know anything and collide with you, please forgive me..."
"Xiaoying come here, Xiaoying come here, Xiaoying come here... Official, no one in this capital dares to be a traitor now, the officials patrolling the streets are about to arrive, for your safety, let's let go of Xiaoying first..."The weak voice was a little alive and said quickly and quickly, the logic was clear and there was no lack of threat, Lu Xiangsheng grabbed Du Xiaoying, who was about to pounce on his mother, and didn't want her to pass for safety.
"My mother and grandfather are good people, don't worry if he keeps the city so peaceful..."Du Xiaoying's crisp voice said a little coquettishly.
“――――”
"The official is... Lord Lu? The woman's voice was full of surprise, and she could still hear the hidden weakness as she asked tentatively.
"This official Lu Xiangsheng." Lu Xiangsheng was a little surprised that this lady could know his name just by what the little girl said about rectifying the city and becoming peaceful, and then a sense of satisfaction surged in his heart, as a hard-working official, what could be more proud than the results of his own efforts were affirmed?
"Lord Lu, you—" The woman's voice was full of doubt and disbelief.
"The official just wants to see what kind of illness his wife is suffering from, recently..." Lu Xiangsheng explained that at this time, several of his personal soldiers led a few doctors to come, so he didn't say anything, just watched the doctor take the pulse of the people on the straw mat.
The little girl had a smile on her face, and finally, a doctor came.
.........
Lu Xiangsheng pulled Du Xiaoying, who was crying and making trouble, and the girl's crazy action of rushing to her mother almost made Lu Xiangsheng, who had killed countless enemies on the battlefield for a long time, a little unbearable, which made his heart full of pity.
There are already a few lamps in the thatched hut stacked with thatch, for the mother and daughter, this is the oil lamp they can't afford to consume, and it is still acceptable for Lu Xiangsheng to rise, although as the number one person in the capital now, he still can't afford to use the electric lights that are popular among the so-called upper-class people now, but he finally saw the woman in the house clearly in the bright room.
"Mother!" Du Xiaoying shouted and cried, it was a thin and pale woman, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were a little conspicuous, but the charm was still there, and it was somewhat similar to Du Xiaoying's appearance, but she was finally defeated by this world.
Lu Xiangsheng believes that his wife's disciples are not as good as the women in front of him, but he still does not show his old age precisely because he does not have to run around for a living, in this regard, Lu Xiangsheng feels that he is still barely a man, at least he can give his family safety and surplus, at least before the capital is breached.
The woman's face was calm, her eyes were slightly squinted, and she was not very suitable for the light, and then slowly opened her eyes and saw Lu Xiangsheng clearly, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, this appearance is like Lu Xiangsheng is good, for the people at the bottom of the capital now, Lu Xiangsheng's reputation has been unparalleled for a while, even surpassing Chongzhen, and his appearance is not mysterious when he often patrols the streets, and the woman has seen it a few times, so she also recognizes it.
At the end, with a shallow smile on her face, she looked at her crying daughter Zhang Wu's arms and Lu Xiangsheng who was frowning, "According to what the doctor said just now, there have been more than 100 cases of typhoid fever diagnosed in their hands in the past few days, so be careful that Lord Miao should isolate me and other sick people as soon as possible, otherwise I am afraid that there will really be a huge disaster for the people of tens of millions of people in the capital..."
Lu Xiangsheng was slightly stunned and felt a little ashamed, he was hesitant to need a lady to mention this matter, but sometimes the world is so wonderful, he always wants to protect the mother and daughter who met for the first time tonight, especially this woman who is a few years younger than him, since he is a little sad in his heart.
The three doctors have already left, and before leaving, they also said that they have found something wrong, and it is common for a few cases of this disease to appear, but they naturally know that it is an infectious disease in dozens of cases one after another, and at this time this disease is referred to as the plague.
What the woman said was better to be careful or isolated, but Lu Xiangsheng felt that things were already so undoubted, he thought that women probably knew, but they could still be so calm and calm that he admired, although he could know from his appearance that this was definitely not a peasant woman, but in his conversation, it was shown that it was difficult to raise this kind of woman in ordinary small alleys, but the other party didn't say it, and he didn't ask.
"Lord Lu, is it okay to help the women take care of Xiaoying?" The woman said with a little pleading in her eyes at this time, for Lu Xiangsheng, even if the woman didn't mention it, he would take the initiative to bring it up, nodded and looked at the little girl with tears on her choked face, "Xiaoying, my mother will be fine." ”
"Will it?" A glimmer of hope appeared on Du Xiaoying's face, she already had enough sense of autonomy, and the children of the poor were in charge of the house, but at the moment she was just a little girl less than ten years old, saying self-deceptive words.
Lu Xiangsheng nodded affirmatively, "I'll arrange for you!" "I don't know if it's my mother or my daughter.
.........
Jinling, at night, the moon stars are scarce, the moonlight is like a light tulle shrouded on the ground, and the breath is still extremely hot.
"Yes, do you think there is a cure for the plague?" There were a few girls lying on the bed who had already vaguely fallen asleep, and Ning Daguan hugged Li Yuran and Shang Jinglan to discuss medical knowledge again, just like they said before that posture was easier to conceive.
Shang Jinglan and Li Yuran, who were defenseless, touched their smooth lower abdomen and felt a warm current in their bodies, thinking that they didn't know if they could get pregnant this time, and then they were reminded by Ning Daguan and were stunned, and pouted together, they didn't have a child, why should they worry about the world if the family is uneven?
"The large-scale plague recorded in the ancestral medical book has occurred a total of nineteen times," Li Yuran still easily collected what he needed in his mind, and habitually pushed the big hand held in front of his fullness, of course, the girl knew that it was useless, Ning Daguan still stubbornly placed it on the tower, and Li Yuran was actually used to it, "When the plague occurs, it affects a lot, but the chance of surviving is about thirty percent, as for the treatment, it must be cured, but it usually takes a long time to develop a new plague." ”
"Is the husband worried about the capital?" Shang Jinglan was also enduring the attack of the devil's claws, and asked with a red face.
"Yes..."Ning Daguan sighed faintly, hugging the two delicate bodies, his life is very beautiful, and it is enough to look down on life and death, but thinking that there are still nearly 20 million people under Chongzhen's rule, even if only half of them die, it is tens of millions, what a terrifying number.

PS: The reason why there is Du Xiaoying's Lori... On the one hand, there must be an entry point, and on the other hand, because of an allusion, Houjin entered the customs and robbed the people's daughters to their leaders to enjoy, and robbed a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl named Du Xiaoying, in the ferry, Du Xiaoying jumped into the river in order to preserve his innocence and did not let Houjin waste the river and die, so there was a sentence, entering the river is especially a daughter, of course, Lori's age is still as unreliable as ever.
