The prince personally led the army to crusade, Huashuo and Yu Zichen joined forces to meet the battle, and the Yu family army expanded by tens of thousands of horses overnight, mostly Nanxiang strong men, and Duanmu Yunze's old Western Xinjiang army joined Huaishui, ready to have a fierce battle with the prince.

Nanxiang City became a weak city with many women and children overnight, Qiu Ziliu led the dead soldiers of Qiu Pavilion to protect Yu Mansion, and Fang Shijie led a force to guard the city wall. There is Yu Zichen and their army as a barrier in front, Nanxiang is comfortable, but there is no foreign enemy to invade Nanxiang still suffered a catastrophe, an unexpected plague began to spread in all directions, half of the people in a city fell ill overnight, alternating hot and cold, vomiting nonstop.

"Little Marquis, from now on, the city gate will be closed, outsiders will not be allowed to enter, no one will be allowed to go out, and the news will also be blocked, once the news reaches the army, it will inevitably disturb the morale of the army." Most of the Yu family's troops were from Nanxiang, and if they knew that their relatives were trapped in the plague, they would not be able to kill the enemy with peace of mind.

Fang Shijie understood the reason, "I have arranged for people to strengthen patrols, and I will never let people out, nor let people in to avoid the spread of the plague, but there are also soldiers in the army who are sick, do you think you want to find a place to isolate all the infected people?" ”

"I asked Dr. Xue, he said that so far I can't find out what caused such a rapid and fierce plague, if half of the infected people in the city are isolated, I am afraid that it will cause a riot in the hearts of the people, I have summoned all the doctors in the city, and distributed some decoctions that can enhance physical fitness to people who have not yet been infected, as for the method of treating the plague, Dr. Xue is also working hard to develop it."

Dr. Xue is a famous doctor found by Qing Rang, and I heard that his ancestor was an imperial doctor, and his medical skills are among the best in Amaterasu.

"You have to take some yourself, I heard on the way here that someone in the house is also infected." Fang Shijie looked at the food on the table that didn't seem to have been moved, "You don't eat on time again, heat up the food again, and I'll accompany you to eat some." ”

"My appetite was a little worse in the summer, so if you don't get too cold, let's eat like this, and the people have been tired lately."

"I don't think so, but you women are more delicate, I have eaten everything with Zichen, but you don't want to eat badly, Yu Zichen has given me a word, if you don't take care of you, I will immediately go to the front line to be a pioneer."

Qing Rang knew that he was just joking with himself, firstly, Yu Zichen was not such a child-like person, and secondly, Fang Shijie was eager to go to the front line, no one was willing to stay and take care of the old and weak women and children every day, and men have always been determined to be happy on the battlefield.

As soon as I picked up the chopsticks, I heard Jin Niang's hurried footsteps, "Miss, it's not good, the people in the princess's room came to report, the seventh princess suddenly vomited, and her body was still a little feverish, it seems that she was infected with the plague." ”

Qing Rang immediately got up when she heard this, but her movements were still one step slower than Fang Shijie, she immediately chased after her, looking at Fang Shijie's hurried steps, she thought thoughtfully.

"The eldest young master, the young aunt, the princess will not allow you to enter!" Fang Muyi's personal maid Xiaonuo stopped Fang Shijie and Qing Rang, "The princess said, only let me go in to serve, not let others in, and also ordered the courtyard to be isolated, especially the eldest young master and young aunt are not allowed to enter!" ”

"What's the matter, she's sick and still playing!" Fang Shijie wanted to break in, Xiao Nuo knelt on the ground and hugged Fang Shijie's thigh, "Young Master, Miss said, if you go in, she will not be cured, and she will not drink the medicine, just wait for death." ”

Qing Rang grabbed Fang Shijie, "She's afraid of infecting us with the plague, and you won't be able to help anything if you go in, let's go back first, I will let people take good care of her, and I will inform you in time if there is anything." "Fang Muyi's stubborn temperament, Qing Rang really appreciates it.

"What the young aunt said is true, if the eldest young master also falls ill, then the young lady really can't live!" Xiao Nuo had tears in her eyes, it was because she felt sorry for her young lady, and Fang Shijie had already calmed down, "You take good care of her." ”

"Fang Muyi, if you dare not recuperate, I will ......" Fang Shijie yelled inside, but he didn't know how to threaten her, it seemed that she had been taking care of him all along. Qing Rang then shouted behind him: "Fang Muyi, if you dare not recuperate well, I will ask someone to stuff this fool in to accompany you." "Fang Muyi's weakness is so obvious, it's just a fan of the authorities.

Qing Rang left first, Fang Shijie was stunned for a long time before chasing back, but seeing that Qing Rang did not walk towards the room, but strode out of the door, "Where are you going?" ”

"Could it be that you still want to eat now?" Qing Rang walked and said, untied the horse tied to the door, and jumped up, "I promised Brother Qi to help him take care of his seventh sister-in-law, but now that Seventh Sister is sick, I don't know who will be next, maybe it is you and me, although I can't help, but I also want to do something, I can't just sit and wait." ”

"What you're saying is that it seems that you are calmer than a man like me."

"If you care, it's messy." Qing Rang's words were pointed out but not said, "I went to Dr. Xue's medicine furnace, and I heard that he lacks a few medicinal herbs, so you can go with me to take a look." ”

The two rode side by side, and the once prosperous Nanxiang City seemed to have become deserted overnight, and the summer sun was very poisonous, grilling the earth. Suddenly heard a crying sound, Qing Rang and Fang Shijie got off the horse and went over, already for a few bystanders, just saw Xuanyin and Qiu Ziliu are also there, since that day Xuanyin and Qing Rang tore their faces have not been to Yu's house, and have been living in the school with their children.

At this time, a little boy was pulling her sleeve, "Sir, sir, quickly persuade my mother, this decoction is poisonous and cannot be drunk." ”

Qing Rang stepped forward and asked, "What happened to you, did you have to take poison in front of the child?" ”

"That's not the case, the child's grandmother was infected with the plague, and his mother wanted to test the medicine for the old man, but the addition of whitehead grass to this medicine is poisonous." Xuanyin explained, but she didn't see Qingrang, as Fang Shijie said, in Qingrang's eyes, she is now an awkward child.

The woman knew the Qingrang in front of her, and saluted with tears, "Young aunt, I don't want to drink poison to die, my husband told me to take care of my mother-in-law before he went out with the young marshal, and now my mother-in-law is infected with the plague, and he is fighting bloodily outside, how can I make him worry about it, I heard the old man in the family say that although this white-headed grass is poisonous, it has cured the plague, and I dare not give it to my mother-in-law easily, so I want to taste it first." ”

Everyone was a little moved when they listened, Qing Rang saw a bowl of black soup on the table, thinking that it must be the decoction they were talking about, she brought it to the front, "Your husband's parting advice you have to do it, and my husband also told me to take good care of the people of Nanxiang, and now you are suffering such a catastrophe, it is not good for me to take care of it, if you want to test the medicine, I will bear the brunt." ”

A bowl of soup and medicine was brought to her mouth and opened her mouth to drink, but she drank less than a sip, the woman hurriedly stepped forward and pushed her away, the bowl fell to the ground and the soup turned to the ground, Qiu Ziliu used her back to force out the soup she drank inside, and her mouth couldn't help but curse, "You are crazy!" ”

"Young aunt, this can't be helped." The woman knelt in front of Qing Rang, Qing Rang spit out the decoction and didn't have the gas to help her, and more and more people gathered around her, and everyone was spreading the news of Qing Rang's drug test, with an unbelievable expression on her face.

Qing Rang stood in front of everyone before he could breathe a sigh of relief, "Seeing that your relatives are sick and in pain, facing the threat of death at any time, I know that you are all heartbroken and afraid, I am the same as you, as long as there is a little way to deal with the plague, I want to try more than you." Our men are bleeding desperately ahead, we can't sit and cry, everyone should not give up hope, cheer up, I believe we will find a way. ”

The originally depressed faces in the crowd became hopeful, they seemed to have found comfort, and now in their serious Qingrang, they are not alone, but more like a Bodhisattva who came to save the world, someone knelt down, bowed his head and kowtowed to Qingrang, "We believe that young aunt, you brought us hope last time, and this time we will definitely be able to defeat the plague." ”

Kneeling down one after another, kowtowing to Qing Rang, Fang Shijie looked at the woman beside him who was still a little pale, he knew that she now had the most precious thing in the world, and it was also what many men dreamed of, that is, the hearts of the people.

"Even if you win Yu Zichen, what she owns is the whole of Nanxiang, and it may be the whole Amaterasu in the future." Qiu Ziliu whispered in Xuanyin's ear.

Xuanyin knew that when Qing Rang drank the bowl of potentially fatal poisonous juice, she knew that this woman had the courage and courage that she did not have, and she admired her, like all the people of Nanxiang, but, "Even if the world is hers, I am not rare, I only want Zichen." ”

Her voice was not small, Qing Rang could hear it clearly, Qiu Ziliu Fang Shijie could understand it, Qiu Ziliu chased her away, Fang Shijie helped Qing Rang to get on the horse, "Don't take it to heart, it's just wishful thinking on her own, she doesn't know what kind of woman Zichen wants." ”

"Actually, I don't know. ”

looked at the people behind her who were watching her, and felt a little emotional. In the past, she did this for Zichen, because he wanted her to stabilize Nanxiang and make Nanxiang rich, but now, at that moment just now, she knew that he was not only for Zichen, she was for Nanxiang, but also for herself.

"I know that what Yu Zichen has always wanted is a woman like you."

A woman who can help the poor and the lowly, and the rich and the rich can be compared.

Half a month later, on the bank of Huaishui, Yu Zichen was dressed in white and swaying by the river, a letter in his hand was tightly pinched, and Hua Shuo walked to his side, he knew that there was a carrier pigeon just now, from the direction of Nanxiang.

"What, there's bad news?"

"Your princess is sick."

"Oh," Asus breathed a sigh of relief, "Anyway, someone is taking care of him, so why bother." Hua Shuo turned to leave, but Yu Zichen called out to him, "Hey, Qing Rang is sick." ”

"What?" Asus looked at him with a frown.

Yu Zichen kneaded the letter paper and threw it into Huaishui, "If it's really fake, I won't tell you." He looked at Asus's hideous face, and his mood suddenly felt a little refreshed. Leaving Huashuo behind him, he clenched the letter that still showed a little bit of paper in his tight fist, and threw it into Huaishui to say that Nanxiang was sick, but he had found a prescription.

And the secret letter in his hand said that Duanmu Qingrang almost drank a bowl of poison, and just now his heart seemed to be missing, and he was frightened.

Later, he asked her why she was really so afraid of death at that time, and a certain woman actually opened her innocent eyes and said that she knew that she could not die, and when she was a child, the fortune teller said that she would live to ninety-nine in this life, and the year he asked her, she was already sixty-nine. Yu Zichen, whose hair was paler than his clothes, threatened her that if she didn't leave until ninety-nine, he would also drink a bowl of poison and try it.
