Chapter 64: Is It All Falling Short?
The mother in charge hurriedly smiled: "It's not that I don't want to, it's just that I've always been training for others, and I can't make my own decisions on how to deal with those children." I still have to ask the Lord's family to come and see before I can decide."
Divine Doctor Du's face was full of anxiety: "Then you can go and invite it, if you drag it out, you really can't hide it!"
After speaking, he flicked his sleeves, put his medicine box on his back and hurried out of the Jasmine Building.
A few steps out of the dark alley, he was stopped by Xiao Song: "Divine Doctor Du! It turns out that you are here, someone in our house has been unwell recently, and the young lady specially asked me to invite you, but the person in your hospital said that you came to the dark alley to see a doctor......
Doctor Du was now full of thoughts about going back to the medical hall to bathe and change clothes, and bowed his hand to Xiao Song: "I'm sorry for this little master, now that you have urgent matters to go back to the museum, you might as well find another doctor!"
Xiao Song's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked in a low voice, "Divine Doctor Du, look at your sweaty head, what kind of tricky patient did you just encounter?"
Divine Doctor Du's pupils shook suddenly, cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and after a while, he hurriedly waved his hand to explain, "No, no...... Nobody gets sick, no one gets sick, it's because we ran so fast that we sweated so much."
Xiao Song saw the cold sweat on his head, and understood that it must be the Shan boys in the Jasmine Mansion who were sick, and he bowed slightly: "That little one won't force Doctor Du to do it, I'll go find another doctor."
Doctor Du quickly returned the salute and hurried away with his medicine box on his back.
Xiao Song also immediately returned to the Lin Mansion and reported to Lin Zhuyun.
"Miss, Moxianglou just invited Dr. Du, who is the best at epidemic diseases in Lingcheng, to consult, and I stopped Dr. Du and asked him a few words, although he didn't dare to admit it, most of them had already found out that the children of Moxianglou were infected with leprosy."
Lin Zhuyun slapped his palm on the coffee table: "Okay, I have to go and tell General Kuang quickly."
After she got up, she suddenly remembered something, turned her head and instructed Xiao Song: "Xiao Song, you have been staring at Moxiang Building for me for the past few days, but the matter is not over yet, there is still one thing I need you to help me."
Xiao Song lowered his eyes: "The little ones are not hard, but they are on the orders of the young lady."
"General Kwong, as a general stationed in the border, should not show up and directly intervene in this matter. I need you to bring a few of the people who are still left in Lingcheng by our caravan, and in the name of the caravan needs a few people to lead the way, no matter what the mother in charge of Moxianglou wants to do with the children of the Shan country, you have to buy them. But also be careful, don't say it's our Lin Ji, there are many large and small horse gangs in Lingcheng, they shouldn't be entangled in this."
Lin Zhuyun opened a locked wooden box carved from the big red sour branch wood, and pulled out a large stack of silver tickets from the bottom of the box: "Here you go, these are the dividends from the shop last month, fortunately, I deliberately changed them to several silver tickets before, even if they want to check it from the silver tickets, they can't find anything."
Komatsu took the silver ticket and carefully placed it in his close-fitting clothes: "The little one promises to pick up the children without landing on the ground."
Lin Zhuyun smiled reassuringly, "Go ahead. After receiving those children, you will take them to the pine forest on the west side of the barracks of the border army, and I will have General Kwong go there to meet you."
Komatsu nodded and walked out of the courtyard with a determined face.
Lin Zhuyun and Xiaotang picked up the guqin and put it on the stone table in the courtyard.
She looked at Kuang's mansion across the wall and played the code with Kuang Lonely.
……
In Dongshan Temple, the people who came to report the news from Jasmine also told Gao Sai the news that the children were suffering from leprosy.
When Gao Sai received the news, he immediately went to the backyard of Dongshan Temple and knocked on Jiang Xianxu's door: "Shizi! The Son!"
In the room, Princess Hongzhi was sitting on Jiang Xianxu's crotch, her face flushed and full of intoxication, and when she heard the knock on the door, she roared angrily: "Get out! I'll come back later!"
Gao Sai frowned, and raised his voice slightly: "Princess Hongzhi, something has happened to the Shan boys in Jasmine Mansion! The mother-in-charge came and reported that they had leprosy!"
The moment Jiang Xianxu and Princess Hongzhi heard about leprosy, they instantly withdrew from their lust, quickly got up and put on their robes.
Jiang Xianxu opened the door: "What did you say? Leprosy?"
Gao Sai knelt on one knee and didn't look up at the two who were dressing, but his tone was a little anxious: "Yes! Leprosy! I asked Dr. Du, who is the best at epidemic diseases, to take a look at it, and it was determined that it was leprosy."
Jiang Xianxu held his forehead with one hand and staggered down on the chair: "What's the matter?!" How did you get leprosy? Who did you get it from?"
「…… Doctor Du said no, maybe these children were already sick, but they didn't have symptoms, and now it's time for symptoms, so ......."
"Smack-" Jiang Xianxu smashed the teacup on the table, and the green tendons on his temples kept twitching: "How can this be! How so! Obviously, it will be sent to Beijing in two days, how can it fall short at this time!"
Gao Sai knelt on the ground, looking at the angry Jiang Xianxu and didn't dare to speak.
After Jiang Xianxu calmed down a little, he spoke: "Shizi...... Dr. Du said that these children were useless, and they should all be burned to death, so that no one else would also be infected...... Jiang Yu...... Miss Jiang Yu is still in the Jasmine Building."
Jiang Xianxu frowned with a pair of light eyebrows, his handsome face was like ashes, and after a while, he whispered, "Is this the only way? How much effort did it take us to pick out these top-notch children from the Shan country, and how much effort did it take to pave the way for them to enter the palace, and it all fell short?!"
Gao Sai knelt on the ground, his eyes kept flashing: "Shizi, this is the only way! Leprosy kills when it is touched, and anyone who touches a leper will also get the disease, and they ...... I can't keep it."
Princess Hongzhi, who had not spoken, stepped forward at this time: "If you touch it, you will get sick, and if you get sick, you can only die...... This is clearly not a failure of our achievements, but a gift from God!"
Jiang Xianxu's puzzled gaze fell on her face, and he saw that Princess Hongzhi had a crazy look on her face.
Princess Hongzhi walked up to Jiang Xianxu with a strange smile: "Jiang Lang, if you think about it carefully, these children of the Shan Kingdom, whether they use daggers or hidden weapons, there is no guarantee that they will be able to kill the emperor, but if they carry this leprosy......
Jiang Xianxu's eyes lit up: "Are you saying that we sent the boy infected with leprosy into the palace and let the emperor be infected?"
"Exactly! What poison could be more effective than this leprosy?"
Gao Sai, who was kneeling on the ground, was worried about Jiang Yu's safety at the moment, he didn't control his emotions and snorted coldly: "Hmph...... If Princess Hongzhi can say this, it must be because she has never seen the appearance of a leper. People suffering from leprosy are covered with red macules, their faces are red and swollen and covered with pus, their hair and eyebrows will fall out, their eyes will become red like rabbit eyes, and in severe cases, their limbs will be curled up and unable to straighten. Such a person, can you still be sent to the palace?!"
Hearing Gao Sai refute himself so shamelessly, Princess Hongzhi's face turned blue and white for a while, but she also realized the absurdity of what Fang just said.
Jiang Xianxu asked, "You said at the beginning that those children were not symptomatic at the beginning, right?"
Gao Sai was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Jiang Xianxu showed a gloomy gaze: "Then can we let them infect others again? Wouldn't it be better to go into the palace before anyone else has a seizure?"
Princess Hongzhi looked happy: "It's feasible, you don't need to bother to choose a beautiful boy, you only need to take someone to infect someone who can get close to the emperor." I think...... King Xiang is a good choice."
Jiang Xianxu also nodded: "Yes, in this way, we can also get rid of King Xiang, so that he will not become our enemy after the emperor's death."
Gao Sai knelt in front of the two and didn't speak, he was only worried about Jiang Yu's safety now.
"Gao Sai, you go to Moxiang Mansion and tell the mother in charge to leave only one who has mild symptoms now, and all the rest will be dealt with by Doctor Du. You should find a way to bring the mild symptoms back, lock them up in a cave in the mountain behind us, and then leave for Beijing tomorrow."
"Subordinates obey!"
The moment he got the order to go to Jasmine Tower, Gao Sai immediately got up and rushed down the mountain and galloped towards Jasmine Tower.
……
In the Lin Mansion, Kuang Lian, who was dressed in black robes, appeared in front of Lin Zhuyun at the moment when he heard the sound of Lin Zhuyun's piano, and Lin Zhuyun and Xiaotang in the courtyard did not notice it.
His forehead hair swayed slightly with the wind, the scar behind his forehead hair was faint, and his voice was hoarse with a hint of reassurance: "Sister Yun, I'm here."
Lin Zhuyun looked at Kuang Lian, and her bright eyes were full of trust that she had never realized herself: "General Kuang......"
Kuang Xiao raised his lips slightly: "Sister Yun played the piano and called me today, but there is news from Miss Jiang Yu?"
Lin Zhu smiled lightly: "Sister Yufei's side has already succeeded. Some doctors have been to Jasmine House, and most of the children in it have been diagnosed."
Kuang Lin nodded slightly, he looked at Lin Zhuyun's face with a strand of hair across her eyes, unconsciously stretched out his big palm, and pushed the strand of hair to her ear, revealing her expectant eyes.
Lin Zhuyun was swept by the breath of Kuang Lone's big palm, and two pieces of crimson appeared on his face in an instant.
She reached out and pinched the strand of hair around her ear, and hurriedly said, "This matter is finally over, and I think in two or three days, we will be able to rescue these children without landing." General Kuang, how are you preparing for the medicinal wine over there?"
"It's all ready, enough to save dozens of people. But Sister Yun, have you already sent someone to ransom someone?"
"Yes, I asked Komatsu to go with the silver ticket, he is a child who has no way to live, and the head of Moxiang Mansion should let Komatsu redeem those children in order to reduce some losses."
After hearing this, Kuang Xiao pursed his lips, not knowing what he was thinking.
