Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

"Yes, since the beginning of the month, some people have died of illness, but not too many," the county magistrate replied.

"Oh? Someone here died of illness." Qin Zhaohong said.

The county magistrate was a little frightened, but when he saw that the princess did not look angry, he secretly wiped the sweat off his face.

Yu Weishuang frowned immediately.

"Call the doctor," she said.

Soon, the old doctor who was writing something came in front of the two people. Yu Weishuang asked him about the specific symptoms of these people, and he answered very clearly.

"This cold is very strange..." the doctor said, "Most of the people in this courtyard have mild symptoms. The few who have serious symptoms also had mild symptoms at first, but they deteriorated rapidly within a few days and it was too late to treat them. I have never seen such a cold. Maybe the people who got sick are weak or have no resistance to this disease."

After hearing this, Yu Weishuang thought for a moment and said, "Make room for another small courtyard. The family members of the deceased and those who had contact with them should all be moved to the new courtyard."

Qin Zhaohong asked: "What do you think?"

"The princess saw the record of abnormal medicinal materials half a month ago, so the concentrated outbreak should have been at least 20 days ago." Yu Weishuang said, "But in the counties of Jiangnan Road, the symptoms of the patients are not serious and are not in danger of life."

Qin Zhaohong nodded.

Yu Weishuang continued, "But here, some people have died from this, and there are also many patients. I speculate... maybe these are two different diseases, but the symptoms are similar when they first occur, so there is no obvious problem."

"It makes sense. I'll do as you say." Qin Zhaohong said, "When arranging the transfer of patients, we must not cause panic."

The county magistrate quickly agreed. He gave his orders, and immediately a veiled bailiff came to count the people and took them to another courtyard.

Qin Zhaokong wanted to follow but was stopped by Yu Weishuang.

"Princess, it's better for you not to take this risk." Yu Weishuang said seriously.

"Didn't you say it wasn't an epidemic?" Qin Zhaohong asked, raising his eyebrows.

Yu Weishuang said: "I mean probably... Anyway, to be on the safe side, you should not go in."

Qin Zhaohong opened his mouth again, but Yu Weishuang pressed down on his upper lip.

"Don't act like I'm entrusting you with your orphan. I won't get too close, and I'm wearing a veil." She said, "Okay, I'm going."

Qin Zhaohong shook his head slightly.

……

Yu Weishuang walked into the yard and looked around.

She started with the little girl curled up in the corner. She asked her name, where she lived, what her relationship was with the deceased, and even her itinerary in the days before she fell ill. She did the same with the rest of the people.

The county magistrate followed beside her, not knowing what she was trying to do.

Yu Weishuang's brows gradually furrowed.

"Mr. County Magistrate, how many households are there on both sides of the Baishui River in the city?"

"That's quite a lot, at least thirty or forty households," said the county magistrate.

"Send out the yamen runners to control the Baishui River. No one is allowed to approach or use the water in the river." Yu Weishuang said, "Try to gather all those families together... or temporarily confine them to their homes."

"Ah, why is this?" The county magistrate broke out in a cold sweat, it sounded very serious!

"Most of these people have drunk the water from the river." Yu Weishuang said, "Get us a map of the area nearby."

"Yes, yes, I'll do it right away." The county magistrate said hurriedly.

Yu Weishuang left the yard and waved to stop Qin Zhaohong from approaching. She took out a porcelain bottle, poured some liquid from it to moisten her hands, and sprinkled some on her body.

Qin Zhaohong then walked over.

"how?"

"The problem probably lies with the Baishui River." Yu Weishuang said, "The people in the other courtyard live scattered throughout the city, and some do not use the water of the Baishui River. As for this courtyard... Princess, it is not easy to control the patient. Can this county magistrate do it?"

"The people in the counties of Jiangnan Road are basically talented people that I have selected, so there should be no problem." Qin Zhaohong said, "The only problem is... how to lead this matter out before my father finds out, and how we can hide perfectly among them."

Yu Weishuang pondered.

"I wonder if Gu Xu is interested in something like this." She said, "I heard that he has a man who knows medical knowledge. We can borrow him."

"That's good. It saves us the time of looking for doctors in various places in Northern Qin, and it can also save more people." Qin Zhaohong nodded.

……

late at night.

Wu Fei sneaked into the yard where Wu Feng and others lived.

He held his breath and waited until Wu Yan came out of the next room.

This is the private courtyard of the six leaders, but they do not live here every day. Wuye and Wuyue have been in the East Palace for several years and will not come back unless necessary; the remaining four, Wuyun is often on duty in the Cloud Hall, Wuyan stays in Dunxinbo Mansion, and Wuhuo and Wufeng occasionally take turns with him.

What Wu Fei was waiting for was a night when Wu Yan was the only one living in the courtyard.

Although Wu Yan is the leader of the six, his skills are mostly focused on analyzing intelligence and coordinating the overall situation, so he is less likely to detect people lurking in the dark. Wu Feng is an expert in surveillance and tracking, so the risk of Wu Fei being discovered is very high; Wu Huo is highly skilled in martial arts, so it is easy to detect his internal energy.

The rock is the weak point.

Wu Fei was not sure whether what he wanted was in Wu Feng's room.

The worst possible scenario is that the master kept the evidence with him, but Wu Fei vaguely felt that this matter was inextricably linked to Gu Dashi.

During his trip to Ganzhou, he had discovered that there was an unusual connection between Gu Dashi and his master.

The master actually let Gu Dashi take away the credit that originally belonged to the master, and was willing to hide behind the scenes. Moreover... the master has been back to Wumen for a long time, but he doesn't care about the master Huaiyue's affairs at all.

Has he given up on revenge, or has he been deceived by someone?

Wu Fei lowered his eyes. He had to know, even if these things... made him cross the line.

Wu Fei quickly climbed into Wu Feng's room.

Without turning on the light, he walked to Wu Feng's bed in the dark and searched among the pillows and quilts for a while, but found nothing.

It was pitch black outside, and there was no movement. The guards inside the Wumen, especially the courtyards of the leaders, were not strict.

Wu Fei came to Wu Feng's desk again. This desk was very clean, with nothing on it except for the writing brush, inkstone and inkstone. The drawer under the desk was filled with some small items, all of which were props that Wu Feng usually used, and a set of makeup boxes for disguise.

Wu Fei opened the last drawer and his eyes lit up. There was a locked box inside.

He took out a piece of wire and pried it slowly.

The box opened with a sound, and inside were some letters. Wu Fei flipped through a few pages and found that they were just some correspondence between him and Wu Yun.

Wu Fei frowned.

Could it be that the evidence is really in the master's hands?

He was about to put it back in the box, but he felt something was wrong - there seemed to be a small gap at the bottom of the box.

Wu Fei fumbled for a few times and opened a layer from the bottom of the box.

Several yellowed, damp, and tattered envelopes lay quietly inside.
