Chapter 123: Plague
Hushan accompanied his wife to have lunch, and during the banquet, he frequently served dishes for her like a show of affection, and said some words of concern in a warm voice, which made Xiong Biyun's eyes slightly red, and his heart was moved.
At the same time, Hushan looked at the fine lines on Xiong Biyun's face that he tried his best to cover with fat powder, and the gaze on his face, and felt disgust in his heart... So, he quickly euphemistically expressed his dissatisfaction with his daughter's behavior and reminded Xiong Biyun.
"Biyun, no matter what, Yao'er is your only daughter, and in the future, I will fight this old bone, and I will also help her to the position of queen... However, it is one thing to be on top, and it is another thing to be petable, you are a mother, you should go to the palace more often if you have nothing to do, and persuade her well, everything should not be too capricious, after all, it is a matter of supreme glory to be able to win the monarch's green eyes. ”
When Xiong Biyun heard this, he naturally understood, and said, "Master, don't worry, I will enter the palace tomorrow, and I will talk to her about Yao'er..."
"Well," Hushan said and took the teacup in the hand of the maid next to him, rinsed his mouth, took the handkerchief and wiped his hands, and said with a smile, "It's not too early, I still have some official business, I'm afraid I can't accompany you here today." ”
"Master, since you have something, you might as well go first, the important thing is important, and the concubine doesn't matter here." Xiong Biyun heard Hushan say that he was leaving, and his heart was instantly lost, but he still tried to keep a smile on his face, she is a wife, and a wife must have the demeanor of a wife.
"Well, after so many years, you still know me best, and you are the most sensible!" Hu Shan curled the corners of his lips as he spoke, and he gently patted Xiong Biyun's soft hair comfortingly, and said softly, "I owe you in the end, but we have a long way to go!" ”
How long is it coming? What a sentence to come!
Xiong Biyun chewed these words, and a pair of phoenix eyes were covered with a layer of moisture. If there is no today, how can it grow? She felt sour in her heart, but Hushan withdrew his hand without a trace and stood up, and said to her with a smile, "When things are done, I will come to see you again." ”
That means that I won't be coming here again anytime soon. Xiong Biyun responded against her will, however, she instantly understood the sadness of the beauty's twilight, she didn't dare to think about it, she stood up with Qiu Ping's weak support, and followed behind Hushan...
The two of them had their own thoughts, and they quietly said nothing all the way, and walked to the front yard unconsciously.
Hushan was about to say goodbye, but Xiong Biyun raised his eyes and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the anxious appearance of the butler standing outside the hanging flower door and stretching his neck.
Hmph, at this hour, I must have asked for the lives of a few goblins in that courtyard again!
Xiong Biyun lowered his face immediately, took out the majesty of the housewife and scolded, "Who is sneaking around outside the door, why don't you get out of here quickly!" ”
The housekeeper shuddered, and hurriedly appeared, bowed respectfully outside the weeping flower door, and said with a smirk and flattery, "Master, madam." ”
"Who should I be, it turned out to be you a minion, say, what are you doing here?" Xiong Biyun was already holding a breath of air in his heart, so he immediately interrogated the housekeeper.
"Well," the butler hesitated to look at Hushan, but did not speak.
Seeing this scene, Xiong Biyun instantly pulled his face down, his expression full of annoyance and displeasure.
"Bastard, Madame asked you, you dare to swallow..."Hushan knew that the housekeeper was a sleek person who knew the importance of things, so he pretended to be a tiger and scolded with a face, "What the hell is the matter?" Hurry up and say whatever you want! ”
"Yes, sir! What you taught you is that "the housekeeper's eyes turned to Xiong Biyun with a smile on his face, "Madam, forgive me, I am afraid that I will scare you by saying this news..." ”
Hushan and Xiong Biyun were stunned when they heard this.
"Hyakka-in? Isn't that Yukihime? I saw her two days ago and she was fine, why is it gone? ”
Hushan was anxious to figure out the ins and outs of the matter, and he didn't care about Xiong Biyun's ugly face.
"Master, I heard that the clan doctor in the house said that it was a plague." The steward replied cautiously.
"Plague? No way! People were fine two days ago, how can they say that if they have a plague, they will have a plague? ”
Hushan suddenly became nervous when he heard this, after all, he knew that this plague was contagious, and he had intimate contact with this Xue Ji not long ago.
"My lord, my wife, I didn't believe it at the time, after all, the little lady in the courtyard has always been in good health, so I went to see it myself... The little lady was indeed plagued, and her death was quite terrifying, her face and hands were covered with red rashes, and even the clan doctor only watched from a distance, not daring to approach! ”
"What do you say? If the corpse is left untreated, it will be contagious with the virus! Xiong Biyun said anxiously.
"Yes, ma'am, you are very right! Later, fortunately, the eldest prince rushed over when he heard the news! He ordered the sergeant to carry the little lady out with a muzzle and nose, and cremated her on the spot outside the house, and let us smoke the little lady's residence with medicinal herbs to disinfect it, and sprinkle lime all around the courtyard... I heard the eldest prince say that there are several places in the capital today that have broken out of this plague, and this epidemic is contagious, so it is necessary to completely clean up the virus in the house. ”
