The streamer passes through, quietly, the rain is clear, the water and wind are clear, and the sunset is bright. A hibiscus, blooming over Shang Yingying.

But no one had the heart to appreciate this beauty, because a severe plague was spreading quietly and rapidly in the city of Yaqi in Yunnan. It is said that it started with a beggar begging for food on the side of the road, and when it first contracted it was just an ordinary fever, headache, and sore throat, but if it was not treated in time, it would lead to facial swelling, respiratory obstruction, and a disease of one person, and a disease that infected one room, and a hospital.

Ju Xiang heard that since two or three days ago, ordinary people outside have begun to burn mugwort leaves or boil vinegar to drive off the epidemic, and everyone is in danger for a while.

It is said that the Empress Dowager Zhuang Wen and the queen in the palace had learned about this a few days ago, and led the concubines to Jinsu Temple to burn incense and pray, but now it seems that this move has not won the mercy of God.

The rumors that flowed out of the palace said again, Luo Xi was anxious, and his body didn't seem to be very refreshed, and the imperial doctor had quietly entered and exited the imperial study a few times in the past two days.

Seeing that more and more people are infected with the plague, and more and more people are dying, the corpses in Yaqi City are all over the field, and the grief is continuous.

The precious spices burned everywhere were extinguished for a while, and the smell of paralyzing herbs from the burning of mugwort leaves and atractylodes was permeated everywhere, and strong shochu was sprinkled every two hours in front of the house, and then even vinegar was placed in all corners of the house and boiled directly to ward off the disease.

In the days when the plague was rampant, one of the most chilling things happened, that is, in the room of Jianning and his brother, a low-ranking maid who took care of the handymen was found to be infected with this terrible plague.

With the death of this maid, the first case of illness in the Yunnan palace was put on the surface, and everyone couldn't help but talk in private, saying that the Yunnan palace with a wall several feet high was not safe at this time, so that people everywhere were even more panicked.

The clear sunlight shines through the bright gauze paste window and hits the wooden railing, revealing a very pale yellow, like the thin glaze on the fine pineapple porcelain.

I remembered that I hadn't had time to practice calligraphy quietly for a long time, and I was writing: The waves are warm and green, and the swallow flies, but it is Su Di who knows. The fish is not round with waves, it is red, and it is difficult to sweep the east wind when it is laughed. The barren bridge is broken, and the willow yin supports the flat boat small. Looking back at the pond, it is like the grass in a dream.

Imagine that the water temperature is warmer and the lake is sparkling. The swallow returned, and it happened to be the spring dawn of Sudi. The fish dived into the lake, leaving round ripples on the surface of the water, and the flowing water carried away the colorful and messy fallen flowers, and laughed at the east wind for not sweeping the fallen flowers clean. Under the deserted bridge, a small boat fluttered out from the depths of the willow shade. Now the pond is full of grass, just like the dream Xie Lingyun expressed in the poem.

I have such good hopes, and I only hope that this plague will pass soon, and that it will still be a thriving scene in early spring next year.

Juxiang anxiously ran into the room, I looked up and glanced at her lightly, and asked, "What's wrong?" is in such a hurry, and he is not afraid to make a mistake! With that, I smiled.

Ju Xiang gasped and said, "Second Miss, it's not good!" ”

When I saw Ju Xiang like this, I knew that something big must have happened, so I hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Ju Xiang stroked her chest and said to me, "Princess! The princess is infected with the plague! ”

I exclaimed, "What! "When did you find out?" ”

Ju Xiang said: "According to Cuixiang, the princess began to have a fever last night, but the princess has always been healthy, no one dared to think about this, when I got up today, the prince felt that it was very bad, so he called the doctor to come and see, when the slave went, the princess had convulsions, which was really scary!" ”

I asked, "The doctor is already there?" He frowned again and said, "The princess's room has always been very attentive, how can this be?" ”

Ju Xiang frowned and said: "The slave and maid were not there when they went, I don't know if they came here or not, I heard that there have been many patients outside recently, and I don't know if I can get out of the way," continued, "It's also strange, the princess and the prince's room should be the cleanest, but the plague was found in Mingzhu Hall one or two successively." ”

I thought about it for a while and said to Ju Xiang, "Take me to see it!" ”

When I arrived in the room, Wu Yao was already very anxious, his eyes were bloodshot, he pulled my sleeve and sat down and said, "I was fine during the day yesterday, but I can't get up this morning, the whole person is very hot, and I had convulsions a moment ago." ”

I looked left and right, frowned and asked, "Where's the doctor?" ”

Wu Yao sighed and said, "The plague is already easy to infect, and no one dares to come to ordinary doctors, even if they come, it is useless." ”

I said, "I think the doctor I am used to inviting in the house is very good, what about him?" ”

Wu Yao clenched his clenched fists and said to me, "I've sent someone to invite me three or four times, but I haven't come here yet, how is this good?" ”

I said, "Didn't my brother call the person who went to ask him to tell him that it was the princess who was infected in the Yunnan Palace?" ”

Wu Yao sighed: "Why didn't you tell it? ”

I wondered and asked, "Then how dare he put on a show and not come?" ”

Wu Yao waved his hand and said, "He asked people to bring back words and say, your life there is life, but the life of people outside is not life?" Everything is first-come, first-served, so that we can wait," he shook his head, "and he has a very strange temperament. ”

Cuixiang was already anxious and didn't know what to do, and her voice was a little crying, "How can this be delayed?" She whispered again, "The one in our room is only one night...... How can the princess's thousands of noble bodies withstand it? ”

Wu Yao hurriedly said: "Or, I'll go and find my father?" ”

I stopped: "No, this is the epidemic area in Fuzhong, how can I call my father?" ”

Wu Yao said again: "Then I'll send a few people to tie up the doctor for me!" ”

Wu Yaogang paced two steps, I grabbed him, and said: "My brother also knows that his temperament is different from ordinary people, he said that he should not come down, and asked us to wait, but you went against his will and tied him up, when the time comes, he is angry and will not treat you, then the princess can really only wait for death." ”

Wu Yao stomped his feet, his face full of restlessness, "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what should I do?" ”

After being quiet for a long time, I couldn't wait, I turned my face and was about to go to the room, Wu Yao was even more flustered when he saw it, and suddenly grabbed me and said, "Sister, are you crazy?" ”

I looked at him and said, "No matter what the situation, I always have to take a look before I can make a decision." ”

Wu Yao said: "The plague is raging, what if you are infected?" He's coming, he's going to scold me to death! ”

I asked, "Who?" ”

Wu Yao said: "Who else can there be?" ”

I bowed my head, "You're talking about Ming Shizi," I struggled with my wrist, "I don't think this plague is much worse, my brother and the princess get along day and night, and I haven't seen anything, I must go in and have a look today!" ”

I broke in with a gust of wind, but no one came to stop me, probably because I was afraid of the plague!

Through several layers of gauze tents, Cui Xiangben quietly followed me, and stepped in front of me with an arrow step, not letting me take a step closer, she sobbed softly: "The princess is already like this, the second miss still has to protect herself, if the second miss is also infected, there is really no one to care about these things." ”

My heart trembled, and I nodded, "Okay, I'll just take a closer look through the curtains." ”
