Chapter Fifty-Eight: The People Revolt
Shangguan Nan took a long time before he came back to his senses, and he was instantly ecstatic: "This is really good!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is all right, are you still afraid that others will be bad? ”
Chu Jiao followed and smiled, it's great to recover.
"It's thanks to you this time, if it weren't for you, I don't know when it would be fine." Yao Feng said to Chu Jiao with a smile.
Chu Jiao wanted to say something, but her body fell directly.
Yao Feng hurriedly picked up the person and went to ask another doctor, saying that it was because of overwork recently.
Chu Jiao lay down for a whole day, and finally woke up, her head felt groggy, and her body couldn't use any strength at all, she knocked her head hard, and it was fine a few days ago.
Seeing this, Yao Feng hurriedly stepped forward and took the hot porridge: "You are too tired, you should rest more, as for the affairs of the people, I will take care of it, the medicine has been decocted, and it will soon be able to improve in large quantities." ”
"Well, then I'll trouble you." Chu Jiao pressed her temple and said, but she was most worried about the situation of her grandfather's family, and she didn't know what happened to them.
Looking at the worried expression on her face, Yao Feng understood her concerns.
"The old man and a few infected people have taken medicine first, so you can rest assured."
Chu Jiao was completely relieved at this time, and after just resting for a night, she got up again and went to the place where the epidemic was serious to observe their situation.
Among them, Shangguan Rui's wife Rong Rong was among them, she was thin and unseemly, her hair was unkempt, her nails were full of mud, she didn't know what she was gnawing on in her mouth, and her face was full of dirt.
The officers and soldiers wanted to feed her medicine, but she couldn't drink it at all, and if she had to drink it, she would resist fiercely, which would have backfired.
Chu Jiao has seen Shangguan Rui's crazy appearance, if Rong Rong can't do well, I'm afraid Shangguan Rui won't be able to live.
"We have to find a way to get her to drink the medicine." Chu Jiao said, and the two of them followed to control Rong Rong, and Chu Jiao took the medicine bowl and stepped forward, wanting to pour it in.
Unexpectedly, although Rong Rong's body was thin, her strength was very strong, she yelled and struggled desperately, her nails scratched Chu Jiao's arm.
Yao Feng saw this scene as soon as he came, and he hurriedly shouted: "Quickly control her!" ”
Later, several people rushed up to control Rong Rong.
"How's it going, are you alright?" Yao Feng hurriedly stepped forward to inquire and pulled her to bandage.
Chu Jiao felt that she had a feeling of dizziness, but she couldn't tell what it felt.
Chu Jiao's wound had just been bandaged here, and bad news came from the other side.
"Oh no, no, no! Dead! After the seriously ill patients drank the medicine, they all foamed at the mouth! More than a dozen have died now! Xiuying said.
Chu Jiao stood up with a "rub", and the dizziness on her body became even more serious.
"I'm going to see what's going on, what about the other patients?"
Looking at the corpses lying on the ground, with painful expressions, I must have felt very difficult before I died.
The strange thing is that those who are relatively mild, all of them have recovered and even recovered, including the old man Shangguan who was infected, he has completely recovered.
But the condition was serious, and after taking medicine, the person was gone in less than two hours.
Chu Jiao immediately thought that it must be a problem with the medicine, those who are seriously ill may not be able to accept the stimulation of the drug after taking the medicine, and the outbreak of the epidemic in the body is even more serious, so the person is directly gone.
She had to research some new prescriptions, and she crouched down to carefully check the changes in the corpse, as well as the changes in the bodies of those who had already taken the medicine.
Everyone was afraid of death, and seeing that those who were relatively mild had recovered, but they could only wait here for death after taking medicine, their emotions also exploded.
"I look at the court because we are seriously ill and can't be cured, so they give us poison and want us to die!" One of the patients said.
His idea was quickly recognized by everyone, and the crowd was very loud.
"It must be so, it's all that woman! She wants them to die, and we can't let her live well! Let her die! Let her die! ”
Originally, they stayed in the area where the epidemic was severe, but now they suddenly fled en masse and collectively denounced Chu Jiao.
Chu Jiao was living in Shangguan's mansion, researching a new prescription, and after a while, she heard Xiuying's voice in a hurry.
"Now there are a lot of people outside, all blocking the door, saying that you want to pay for the lives of those who died, and they are banging on the door! They were very emotional. ”
Chu Jiao stood up and was about to go out to see the situation, but was stopped by Xiuying.
"Master Jiao, don't go out now, they are sick and dangerous." He said.
Before Chu Jiao could speak, she heard a whirring footsteps outside the door, and there were many people at a glance.
The officials above the middle of the house took the lead, and the maids followed behind, Chu Jiao looked as if she was going to crusade against her.
"Third uncle, what's the matter?" Chu Jiao asked.
Shangguan Rui snorted coldly, his face turned pale: "You still have the face to ask!" It's all the trouble you caused, and now the people outside are denouncing you and asking us to hand you over, or you will break into the official mansion, and then you will infect the whole house, can you bear this charge? ”
"Third uncle, I'm tired, you go to the prince, he will suppress them." Chu Jiao listened to his tone, and instantly didn't want to go out
She came to help them, and she had never seen anyone so ignorant.
"Where's my Rongrong? How is she now? Shangguan Rui knew that Rong Rong's condition was also very serious and difficult to cure.
Chu Jiao had the experience of the last time, but she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore, seeing that Chu Jiao didn't speak, Shangguan Rui's heart was cold, and his heart was even more determined, and he wanted to hand her over.
Shangguan Rui took a step forward and wanted to catch Chu Jiao, but Xiuying was now on the side, and he was suddenly grabbed by his shoulders and couldn't resist.
"You! Broom star! Do you really want to bring disaster to the whole house because of you alone? His movements were intense, a man in his forties, but he was controlled by a man in his twenties, and he was still in front of so many maids, it was inevitable that he would lose face.
"What are you doing in a daze? Not yet? Shangguan Rui said to the people below.
The people below were eager to try, but they were all kicked over by Xiuying.
At this time, the old man also came, and he couldn't watch this situation continue.
"Don't mess around!" The old man came over and said.
Xiu Ying snorted coldly, his expression was disdainful, and he pushed Shangguan Rui and let go, Shangguan Rui staggered a few steps before stabilizing his figure.
"Daddy! Now there are so many people out there! We'll just have to hand her over, or else..."
Before Shangguan Rui's words were finished, he was knocked on the head by the old man with a cane.
"Bastard thing! You forgot who saved my life! If it weren't for my granddaughter, I might have been in the coffin! The old man's voice was sonorous and powerful, his face was ruddy, and it was obvious that he was very well cultivated.
Chu Jiao smiled slightly, finally the Shangguan family also has someone who understands, and it is not too cold.
Shangguan Rui was beaten, and he felt even more faceless.
"Daddy! You're an outsider! That's what you did to me! You forgot that Rong Rong is still over there, what should I do if she has something long and two short! ”
"You still have the face to say, you can't pass the entrance examination, look at your brothers and sisters, which one is not better than you? Raising at home all day long and doing nothing, my Shangguan family doesn't have a son like you! The old man's breathing quickened, and his face was very bad.
Chu Jiao hurriedly came over to reassure: "Grandfather, don't be angry, those people outside are originally because of me, so I'll go out and deal with this kind of thing myself." ”
The old man Shangguan grabbed her sleeve, very stubborn.
"No! You can't go out, they've gone crazy and now in this situation, they can do anything. ”
At this time, the family hurriedly rushed over: "Oh no! The gate is about to be broken! Our people are running out of steam! ”
The old man's face instantly became ugly, and Chu Jiao didn't want them to be embarrassed.
broke free of the old man's hand, and said in a gentle voice: "Old man, don't worry, I'll be fine." ”
As she spoke, she glanced at Xiuying, who understood and brought her up at once, jumping onto the house.
When those who were crazy outside saw Chu Jiao, they all had red eyes and all kinds of weapons in their hands.
"Come down! We're going to kill you today! Do the right thing for heaven! ”
One man said this, and the cries followed one after another.
Chu Jiao felt that her head hurt, her consciousness was a little trance, and her throat was faintly itchy.
After Yao Feng heard about the incident, he hurriedly came: "Everyone listen to me, we will definitely try our best to do this thing well, we didn't expect this situation, but the court will definitely not let everyone die, the saint is responsible, and will not let everyone die in vain." ”
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you just want to shield that woman! Her identity has been unknown, after she came, she asked us to take medicine, and after taking it, she left, but my poor wife was not yet thirty years old, and she was gone! ”
"yes, yes! My mother is only in her seventies, and she will live for many more years! If it weren't for this enchantress! How could my mother die! ”
The scene was out of control for a while, and Chu Jiao was condemned by everyone and had to burn her to death.
"If you are like this, you will never get better!"
Yao Feng's words were drowned in the anger of everyone, and on the roof of the house where Chu Jiao was standing, there were already people trying to climb up, wanting to catch Chu Jiao.
"Arrest her! Grab it! Go up in flames! ”
Everyone's roar shook the sky, Chu Jiao's meaning became more and more blurred, and the things in front of her were not very clear, she felt that her neck was so itchy, and she had an ominous premonition in her heart.
"Master Jiao, what should I do now? The master said, you can't let you have the slightest mistake. Xiuying wanted to take her out of here, but was stopped by Chu Jiao.
