Chapter 244: The Solution to the Epidemic (4)
In the face of the delay in disbelief, in fact, Awei didn't know what to say, because this blow really left a deep imprint on her heart, and it can be said that it deeply affected Awei.
Ah Wei said, "Your Highness, now is not the time to care about others, no matter what, Your Highness's body is the most important thing." ”
Chi Chi nodded, after all, what is the plague going to do on the sixth princess's side, and now it is no longer something that Chi Chi can solve here anyway.
What she has to do now is to take good care of her body, and then have nothing to do with the sixth princess, just do it.
And now Chi Chi is barely on the side of a stable time, but when it comes to the sixth princess, this is not so simple at all.
When the plague came, people were always cold and hot, so when the six princesses were in a daze, they shouted cold for a while, and the maids hurriedly added quilts to her, and the charcoal fire couldn't be stopped at all, because the imperial doctor said that the room had to be ventilated, otherwise, it would be even more serious.
But as soon as the quilt was added, the six princesses over there began to shout heat again, so they hurriedly had a maid to play a fan.
This came and went, and the maids who were originally serving the six princesses were already frightened one by one, and they always felt that they would be the next to fall, and they were even more impatient, and their movements were not as meticulous as before.
It doesn't matter this time, but this time it was seen by Wan Concubine.
Although it has not been two days, Wan Concubine's mentality has collapsed again and again, and she is still barely struggling to cheer up, but when she saw the little palace maid treating the sixth princess like this, she exploded in an instant.
"Okay, you cheap skin, it was your blessing to ask you to serve the princess, but you still think that you are a great character, but you are so contemptuous of Her Royal Highness the princess, seeing that the palace does not ask someone to clean you up, you don't know what your identity is now?"
Originally, everyone was barely at peace, but now that Concubine Wan scolded like this, even those palace maids were already close to storming away.
And the scolded little palace maid immediately stood up, "Wan Concubine Niangniang, now the slaves and maids are still serving the master, but the slaves and maids are doing their best, otherwise you think that who would want to stay in this place where the plague has occurred." ”
However, after two days of hard work, all the little palace maids seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
The little palace maid's eyes were red, "If I had said it earlier, who would have come here to serve, we would have served here today, but it was just thinking about the old love, otherwise what would you like to do to us?" Kill? It's just a matter of executing us as soon as possible, even if the head is cut off, it's just a scar the size of a bowl, and now I'm scared here every day, and if I really get infected in the future, maybe I'll really die a bad death! ”
This is really someone infected, they are all the slaves and maids who served the six princesses the most closely, but they started to heat up last night, and then when they felt that something was wrong, they were already unconscious, and this is how they know that they are not good.
The person who originally served the six princesses was already walking on thin ice, and at this time, he had to endure the scolding of the concubine, which no one could bear.
I saw that the little palace maid just threw the handkerchief in her hand, and then she was quite a bit of a broken jar, "If Niangniang thinks that we are not good at serving, then you can take care of Your Highness in person, thinking that Niangniang is the biological mother of Your Highness, she will not be afraid of this so-called plague after all, and she is quite careful and intimate, so it is better to ask Niangniang to serve in person." ”
Of course, Concubine Wan felt sorry for her daughter, after all, she had been in the harem for so many years, and she had such a daughter.
Her only chance after that is to ask her daughter to marry into a good family, and then her mother will be expensive for her daughter, so that the future will not be too sad.
But if you ask Wan Concubine to put her life in danger, then she will definitely refuse.
After all, whose life is not fate, even if it is his own daughter, he can't die for no reason like this.
Concubine Wan just hesitated, and the little palace maid laughed mockingly, "What's the matter, Niangniang doesn't dare?" I scolded the slaves and maids so vigorously just now, and I really couldn't say a word at this point? ”
She looked at Concubine Wan's eyes with disdain, "Let's serve His Highness with disdain, His Highness knows, at most he is angry, but if Niangniang doesn't even dare to approach His Highness, I don't know if His Highness knows, is it angry or cold?" ”
No matter what anyone said, Concubine Wan just didn't go in, she pursed her lips, "Okay, you guys are not big or small, as soon as the order of the closed courtyard is lifted, the palace will immediately ask someone to kill you." ”
The little palace maid was laughing and tears came out, "Niangniang, do you still think that the instructions of this court will be solved?" Have you really not heard of the plague? As long as there is a plague, all those who come near it will be burned to death, as has always been the case outside the palace. ”
Of course, Concubine Wan had heard of this, she was so frightened that she was beating the drum, but her face was blue, but she still pretended to be calm, "What nonsense are you talking about, those people can naturally be executed and burned at will, but this is the princess, I am the mother, we are all the masters of the palace, who dares to easily say that they want to burn us?" ”
The little palace maid just sneered, "Niangniang still has the heart to comfort herself now, but it's okay, but the slaves and maids think in their hearts, they probably won't live for a few days, and they want to live a few days of leisure." ”
The palace maid is actually going on strike, which is something that has never been heard of or seen in so many years.
Wan pointed at them angrily, and her hands were trembling, "How dare you?" Tomorrow you won't even have water to drink! ”
"After all, Niangniang and His Majesty originally wanted to ask the slaves and maids to bury His Highness, this early death and late death, sooner or later are not all going to die, why do the slaves and maids have to toss here again!"
In fact, it is also because the sixth princess and the concubine are usually people.
Treat these palace maids and slaves, there has never been any spring-like warmth, they are all high, as if they are treated like dogs, and even beat and scolded from time to time, in this way, where are there any so-called loyal people around.
Since he is not a faithful man, it does not seem surprising that at this time everyone is thinking of leaving him.
Naturally, this matter quickly reached the queen's ears, and she was even a little suspicious of her ears, "What did you say?" ”
Mama Li said, "The people in the palace of Her Royal Highness the Sixth Princess, there is no one who is willing to serve the Sixth Princess anymore, and now they are all lying in their own rooms, and they also threaten to say that if they die, they will die, and they will not live long after all." ”
The queen frowned, "What's going on?" Too scared? Won't be up close? I've never heard of such a thing before. ”
Mama Li naturally inquired clearly first, "Hui Niangniang's words were originally good, but it is estimated that she is too tired, so she served the sixth princess, and she was not as dedicated as before. ”
The queen understood.
These palace maids were originally serving here with their lives, and they were already very dedicated, or they could be said to be very reluctant, so what if you made them unhappy again, they would strike.
The queen couldn't hold back and scolded, "What a fool." ”
Mama Li said, "Isn't that it, now that no one serves her and the sixth princess, it's not all her own problem." ”
The queen said, "Are any of those palace maids infected with the plague?" ”
Mama Li thought for a while, "There are indeed two, and they have already fallen last night, but I'm afraid that more and more people will be bad." ”
Sure enough, the palace is still going to be sealed, and now ...... The current situation is estimated to be impossible to hide, and the people in the palace panicked, and the same must be true outside the palace.
The queen said, "Your Majesty has received this news?" ”
Mama Li shook her head, "This is a matter of the harem, of course I came to Niangniang first, where can I go to Your Majesty first, so Your Majesty should not know yet." ”
Since His Majesty doesn't know, the Queen has more opportunities.
The palace maids outside are naturally reluctant to go in, so they have to ask the people inside to be willing to work again.
The queen said, "You let people pass the decree, and tell the palace maids inside that now the imperial doctor is already studying the way to solve this epidemic, they may not be infected, as long as they can come out alive, they will be rewarded with a hundred taels of gold at that time, and then they can go out of the palace to marry." ”
This is a great grace, not to mention this gold hundred taels, this is why many officials can't earn this money in their lifetime, and there is a marriage match out of the palace, originally entered the palace for a lifetime, that is, there is no life of their own, it depends on when the master is gracious.
But as long as there are no special circumstances, the master will not be gracious and say that they will go out.
That's a big opportunity.
Even Mama Li was also shocked by the queen's arrogance, "Niangniang, this gold is a hundred taels ......"
The queen drank a cup of tea slowly, and then said in a light tone, "You can just go to pass the decree, this gold, if they really have the life to take it, then it will be given to them." But I'm just afraid of them......"
This is true, after all, the plague, as long as it is infected, it is estimated that it will not be spared.
These palace maids are only afraid that they really don't have the life to take this so-called golden hundred taels.
Mama Li lowered her eyes, "Yes, the slave is clear." ”
