The useless princess is causing trouble again

In the main courtyard garden.

When Lord Zheng asked this question, the answer in his heart was about to come out, but he was not quite sure.

"My granddaughter-in-law has a generous and open personality. She must be the mastermind behind the No. 1 restaurant in the world."

Shangguan Wei's lips curled up slightly. "On the surface, it can be said that the weapons were all made by my granddaughter-in-law, but the person in power behind the scenes is old man Shangguan, who is also my grandfather."

Old Marquis Zheng was shocked. "The No. 1 Lou in the World is the object of all countries' scramble to please. I didn't expect it to be such a little girl. She is really young and promising." He turned to look at Situ Chong and solemnly warned him, "Chong'er, you must treat your granddaughter-in-law well. If you bully her, your grandfather will not forgive you."

Situ Chong nodded seriously, "Grandfather, please rest assured. I will never let Wei'er down in this life and will never let anyone bully her."

Shangguan Wei lowered her head and pursed her lips, "Husband, please don't say these things in front of my grandfather. It's embarrassing."

At this time, a young general came hurriedly, his forehead covered with sweat, and he gasped and said, "Old Marquis, it's not good. General Zheng has been infected with the plague and is unconscious. He is currently isolated in the Xiahe Village camp."

Upon hearing this, Lord Zheng stepped back in fear. "What's going on? How could Huai'er get the plague? Didn't you take any protective measures?"

The young general's eyes were red, and he sobbed as he said, "General Zheng worked tirelessly for three days and three nights to treat the victims, but he suddenly fainted on the way. The imperial physician diagnosed it as plague, and without saying a word, he quarantined General Zheng."

After a pause, he said, "Woo woo! Old Marquis, please save the general quickly, or the general will be gone."

Old Marquis Zheng was in a state of confusion. He waved his hands hastily and said, "Quick, prepare the carriage, and follow me out of the city to find Huai'er."

The two guards standing behind him replied yes and walked quickly towards the backyard.

Shangguan Wei pulled Situ Chong to follow behind, "Husband, let's go over and check the situation. Send a message to Fifth Senior Brother to go to Xiahe Village."

Situ Chong nodded, "Okay, I'll ask Ze Ren to notify Fifth Senior Brother."

……

Two incense sticks passed and it was almost evening.

The Xiahe Village camp was shrouded in a dark atmosphere. The makeshift tents were filled with epidemic patients. The five imperial doctors were helpless against the disease. The number of patients gradually increased, and the sounds of pain and crying surrounded the camp.

Five imperial doctors gathered under a big tree in the corner of the camp, each with a worried look on their face.

"Doctor Wu, please think of a solution. If His Majesty knew the seriousness of this matter, he would be furious and our lives would be in danger."

"Alas, I have no solution. This disease comes on too quickly and is highly contagious. There is no cure for it. There is only one way, which is to burn all the patients into ashes to prevent the disease from spreading further."

"Doctor Wu is absolutely right. For the sake of the overall situation, burn them all."

"But General Zheng has also contracted a serious illness. It would be inappropriate for us to do this. It would be difficult to report to Lord Zheng."

"Don't worry about him. I will explain the reason to His Majesty. I believe that Lord Zheng understands our painstaking efforts."

As soon as he finished speaking, a junior assistant came in hurriedly and said anxiously, "Doctor Wu, go to the front and see. Marquis Dingguo is here with His Royal Highness Prince Sheng. He is now in General Zheng's tent."

Doctor Wu was so frightened that he clasped his hands together, "What? His Royal Highness Prince Sheng and Old Marquis Zheng are here. This matter is not going to be easy."

He ran forward, "Hurry up, or we will die in the hands of Marquis Dingguo before we see His Majesty."

……

In the tent in the northeast corner, General Zhengzhou was lying on a small bed with a haggard face, his eyes closed, his brows furrowed in pain, and no trace of blood on his lips.

Old Marquis Zheng was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, "Huai'er, open your eyes and look at your father. How could you have made yourself like this? Woo woo!" As he said this, he felt dizzy and his body fell backwards.

Situ Chong stepped forward quickly to catch Old Lord Zheng, "Grandfather, hold on, uncle will be fine."

Tears welled up in the eyes of old Marquis Zheng. "Chong'er must find a way to save him. The Marquis's Mansion cannot be without a pillar."

"Don't worry, grandpa. Your granddaughter-in-law will find a way to save your uncle. Your husband, help your grandfather sit over there."

Shangguan Wei squatted down and used the instrument in her hand to check General Zheng's whole body. Finding that he was in good condition, she took out a life-saving pill and asked him to take it.

Old Marquis Zheng stood behind Shangguan Wei and asked, "Granddaughter-in-law, is Huai'er okay?"

Shangguan Wei turned her head and said, "Uncle's illness was discovered in time. He will get better soon after taking the life-saving pills."

Old Marquis Zheng sniffed and said, "That's good. Huai'er is fine. Grandfather is very grateful. My grandson's wife is really a blessing to our family."

"We are all family. Grandfather doesn't have to say thank you. This is what a granddaughter-in-law should do."

After Shangguan Wei finished speaking, a noisy sound came from behind her.

"Your Highness Prince Sheng, Lord Zheng, please forgive me for my unreasonable behavior. General Zheng has been infected with the disease. You must leave immediately, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

"General Zheng's disease is very contagious. He can no longer survive. Don't get infected."

Old Lord Zheng turned around and looked at the five people at the door, his face flushed with anger, "What nonsense are you talking about? You insisted that Huai'er couldn't be saved without any diagnosis results. You are really a bunch of quacks who are impatient with life."

Doctor Wu stood at the door and looked up and said, "Master Zheng, please don't be angry. The epidemic is fierce and many people have died quickly after being infected. I am doing this for your own good."

Situ Chong said coldly, "Doctor Wu, after your investigation, what kind of epidemic did my uncle contract?"

Doctor Wu raised his right index finger and answered seriously, "This is plague caused by drought. This year's plague is more severe than in previous years. The infected people must be strangled and then burned to death."

Hearing this, Shangguan Wei was so angry that she put her hands on her hips, "Bah! Quack, it's just a quack. My uncle is clearly poisoned, and you still want to burn him with fire. I'll burn you first."

Doctor Wu looked at Shangguan Wei, "Who are you? Why are you so sure it's poisoning and not an epidemic?"

Situ Chong glanced over and said in a deep voice, "She is my king's princess. Doctor Wu has an opinion."

Suddenly there was whispering at the door.

"When did His Royal Highness Prince Sheng marry a princess? What is the identity of this woman?"

"Looking at this woman's vulgar behavior, she must be from the countryside."

"It's better to say less, so as not to let His Royal Highness Prince Sheng hear it."

Doctor Wu curled his lips and said, "Forgive my poor eyesight. Your Highness Prince Sheng, please forgive me."

He turned to look at Shangguan Wei, "Princess Sheng, I wonder how you knew that General Zheng was poisoned."

Shangguan Wei folded her hands over her chest and said, "Because I just detoxified my uncle, he will wake up soon."

Doctor Wu frowned and said, "Princess Sheng, I also thought it was poisoning before, but they didn't feel any symptoms after taking the detoxification pills..."

Before the word "effective" was uttered, the voice of General Zheng rang out.

"Chong'er, father, why are you here?"
