Lu Dan'er was very close to Xiao Ningyin, and when she heard An Hanqing's words, she asked, "What kind of red pimple?" ”

Xiao Ningyin glanced at Lu Dan'er and whispered to An Hanqing: "Bring them all into Tianyi Pavilion, and my sister and I will check them well." ”

"The subordinates have brought them here." An Hanqing turned around and beckoned behind him, and more than a dozen sick people came over weakly.

Xiao Ningyin looked over with a heavy heart, these people's faces were yellow, and their necks and faces exposed outside their clothes were more or less red pimples.

Some people are probably itchy and unbearable, and scratch the pimples with their hands, and the scratched area still flows out of the yellow thick water, which seems to have a layer on the face after the thick water dries.

Lu Cheng looked at the red bumps on these people's faces, exchanged glances with Mrs. Lu, and then lowered his head and asked Xiao Ningyin cautiously: "Princess, is the pimple a plague?" ”

Xiao Ningyin shook her head: "Pimples are not necessarily plague, but the most obvious symptom of plague mud is that the patient is covered with red bumps, and it will itch and bleed in the later stage." Because the thick water rots wherever it goes, it looks like dirt, so this plague also has a name called poisonous mud. ”

Prime Minister Lu and Mrs. Lu shook at the same time and almost fell, Prime Minister Lu opened his mouth, his lips trembled for a long time but he couldn't pronounce a syllable.

Xiao Ningyin stepped forward and pinched Prime Minister Lu Cheng's wrist and took his pulse: "Prime Minister Lu, what's wrong with you?" ”

Prime Minister Lu's pulse made Xiao Ningyin chuckle in her heart and have a bad feeling. She quickly withdrew her hand, took a step back, and looked straight at Prime Minister Lu's face.

Prime Minister Lu shook his head helplessly, and there was already a trace of conjecture in his heart. He rolled up the sleeve of his right arm: he saw that his arm was covered with dense red bumps, like small red spots left by mosquito bites.

Prime Minister Lu Cheng used all his strength before he spit out a sentence: "Princess, please show the minister, is this a plague?" ”

Xiao Ningyin carefully observed Prime Minister Lu's arm, and reached out to lift Prime Minister Lu's sleeve again, only to see that the virus had spread to an inch above his elbow.

"Prime Minister Lu, you are indeed a plague. When did these red bumps appear on your body? Could you please let me know the details? ”

Prime Minister Lu took a deep breath, and wanted to speak several times but couldn't say it, it seemed that the fact that he was infected with the plague hit him too hard.

"Ahem! Let me tell you. The old man beside Mrs. Lu stood up and said, "Princess, I am Lu Ling, the palace doctor of the Lu Mansion. ”

When Xiao Ningyin heard this, she hurriedly bowed to Dr. Lu Ling: "Junior Xiao Ningyin, I have seen Mr. Lu. ”

"Princess, you are a bad old man." Lu Ling hurriedly returned the salute to Xiao Ningyin.

Xiao Ningyin said respectfully: "Mr. Lu is a respected senior of Xinglin, and he deserves this gift from the junior. ”

When Lu Ling saw Xiao Ningyin say this, his eyes looked at her even more kindly.

"Princess, after the Imperial Doctor left this morning, a few small red bumps appeared around my wrists. At the time, I thought I wasn't paying attention to being bitten by mosquitoes, so I didn't pay much attention to it. ”

Lu Ling also rolled up his sleeves, only to see that the dense red bumps on his arms had spread to his elbows, and there were no red bumps elsewhere for the time being.

"I just heard the princess say that people who suffer from the plague will have pimples on their bodies, so the old man showed himself and found that he had become like this. However, I still don't feel an itch. ”

Lu Ling looked at Mrs. Lu worriedly and said, "Madam, how are you doing with your arm again?" ”

Mrs. Lu rolled up her sleeves and saw that she, like Prime Minister Lu and Lu Ling, was covered with fine little red dots below her elbows.

"Mine doesn't itch either." Mrs. Lu sighed: "I found these little red dots today, and I thought I was allergic to seafood yesterday."

Xiao Ningyin's gaze fell on Prime Minister Lu again, he calmed down a lot, and said with difficulty: "Princess, the pimple on my arm looks terrible, and it doesn't feel itchy at all. ”

Xiao Ningyin thought for a moment and looked at Lu Dan'er, who was stunned on the side: "Miss Lu, can you let me see your arm?" ”

Lu Dan'er stretched out her arms towards Xiao Ningyin, and Mrs. Lu and Prime Minister Lu pulled up one of her sleeves, only to see that Lu Dan'er's skin was as white and tender as a shelled egg, and there was no flaw at all.

Mrs. Lu was not at ease, so she pulled Lu Dan'er into a ward in Tianyi Pavilion, closed the doors and windows and carefully examined Lu Dan'er, and made sure that there was no small red bump on her body, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Ningyin waited for the mother and daughter to come out of the ward and asked, "Mrs. Lu, you can find that Miss Dan'er has small red spots and small bumps. ”

Mrs. Lu shook her head: "No, Dan'er's body is clean and clean, and there is nothing." ”

Lu Cheng nodded repeatedly: "That's good!" As long as Dan'er is fine, I am relieved. ”

Lu Dan'er's eyes were red, and she looked at Prime Minister Lu and Mrs. Lu and wanted to cry: "Daddy, mother, I, I don't want you to have anything to do." ”

Prime Minister Lu pulled Mrs. Lu away from Lu Dan'er: "Dan'er, from now on, don't get close to me and your mother, we are all infected with the plague, be careful to pass it on to you." ”

Lu Dan'er's tears had already flowed out, crying and shouting: "Daddy, mother, I don't want to be separated from you." ”

Xiao Ningyin didn't have time to care about the lawsuit between Prime Minister Lu Cheng's family, and said to him: "Prime Minister Lu, please wait a while, I'll go and see the situation of those people, and I have something to say to you when I come back." ”

Prime Minister Lu Cheng bowed: "Go princess, the old minister must wait for the princess here." ”

An Hanqing arranged for Prime Minister Lu Cheng's family to enter a ward, closed the door and went out.

Xiao Ningyin walked into another ward, where there were seven or eight patients, all of whom were sitting on benches, staring at the opposite wall with desperate expressions.

Xiao Ningyin checked around and found that the symptoms of these people were much more serious than those of Prime Minister Lu Cheng's family. As soon as they noticed one or two small red spots, they itched so hard that they couldn't help but scratch the bumps. The consequence of tickling is that the pimple is scratched, and after the blood and water inside come out, the rest of the place also festers.

Xiao Ningyin walked out of the ward thoughtfully, and was about to go to find Prime Minister Lu Cheng's family, but saw the secret guards rushing out one after another.

"Young master." A secret guard rushed to Xiao Ningyin's side: "The third master has sent news that plague patients have also been found in the barracks, and there are no less than a thousand people with symptoms. ”

The second secret guard also came to Xiao Ningyin's side and reported: "Young master, when Your Majesty received your news, he sent a message to the imperial doctor to investigate in the palace, who knew that all the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital were infected with the plague." ”

"Young Master, there are three guests in the Treasure Pavilion, their whole bodies are festering, and they have fallen to the ground and turned into a pool of blood!"

"Young master, Your Majesty urgently summons, the plague has spread greatly in the palace. Your Majesty, Your Majesty has also begun to grow red bumps on your body. ”

Xiao Ningyin gasped, she guessed that the plague would break out, but she didn't expect it to break out so quickly and so violently.

This is still the news from the palace and the army, what about the ordinary people who have not yet had time to investigate? Could it be worse?
