princess is fine

Seeing Xiao Rongjin's ugly expression, Xi Chao smiled softly, "I'm joking, Your Highness, don't mind." She moved closer to Xiao Rongjin, and although he hesitated for a moment, she reached out and hugged her.

This hug was very short, so short that Xiao Rongjin almost thought that the sudden warmth was just an illusion.

"When I return to Jian'an, I hope His Highness will congratulate the third prince on my behalf, and wish you all a happy life together." Xi Chao said this sincerely.It is not easy to meet a caring person, not to mention being able to hold hands for a lifetime, which is already the greatest luck in the world.

"I'm not going back to Jian'an." Xiao Rongjin said, "I'm going to Xuanzhou. The epidemic situation in Dongshan has not yet been cleared up. How could I just leave like this?" She looked at Xi Chao with a slightly surprised expression: "Why, you are very disappointed , I didn't go far?"

"Your Highness is going to see Mr. Xie Chongyi?" Xi Chao didn't care about His Highness's rare teasing, but just thought of what Xiao Rongjin Zhiqin mentioned, and continued: "Brother Gu has found out that this epidemic may have the effect of medicine , but it is still unclear what it is. If His Highness can ask something, it will also be of great help to the epidemic."

Xiao Rongjin said seriously: "If someone caused this epidemic, then this crime is not as simple as embezzlement of money."

"This is not confirmed yet." What Xi Chao didn't say was that the condition of the people in the sick house suddenly deteriorated today, and several people lost their lives in just a few hours.More importantly, this rain may have exacerbated the possibility of disease transmission.Even the yamen servants guarding the periphery, several of them have already felt unwell.

Those people in the medicine house, if they hadn't developed patience due to their daily dealings with diseases, and they were also proficient in medical theory and knew how to prevent them, they would have been in trouble.

Even so, when he saw Shen Siyuan fainted today, Xi Chao also felt that he was frightened to death.

When she and Shen Siyuan met in the Sun Mansion, although they often bickered, they both knew each other's character well.When they arrived at the medicine house, the two of them became more cordial than others. Over the past three years, Xi Chao had already regarded Shen Siyuan as his relatives.

That's why she was so excited when she fainted that she ignored Xiao Rongjin who was beside her.

But now that she calmed down, Xi Chao had a secret idea in her heart. When Siyuan fainted, she was already so anxious and worried. If His Highness continued to stay here, what would happen to her?

Xi Chao didn't dare to think about it anymore.

So when she heard that Xiao Rongjin was going to leave, although she was reluctant to give up, she still hoped that she would leave here, and at the same time concealed the current situation of the hospital from her.

Xiao Rongjin left early the next morning.Although the guards outside the county seat were surprised, but with the seal and letter from the county magistrate, he didn't dare to stop them again.

Xiao Rongjin and his party left Dongshan County and went straight to Lanxi County to find He Daishan without saying anything.

Gu Tongzhou had an expected expression about Xiao Rongjin's departure, but Shen Siyuan, although still feeling unwell, chased after Xi Chao for a long time before letting her go to the hospital.

It has been raining in Dongshan County for three days, and the expression on Gu Tongzhou's face is getting heavier and heavier.Fearing that the plague would spread out along the rain, Bingqianfang has tried its best to completely cut off contact with the outside world, and even strictly controlled water use.Those patients were already in unbearable physical pain, and they didn't receive good care. The situation was already extremely precarious.

In the middle of the night, a disciple of the medicine house also had a high fever, and was sent to the sick house before dawn.

All of a sudden, people panic.Xi Chao looked at the expressions on the faces of his companions who went out to see a doctor together in the past, from resolute to haggard, and finally a little dazed.On the one hand, they have to bear the responsibility of taking care of patients, and on the other hand, they have to endure mental torture.Because no one is sure who will be the next to catch the disease.

Xi Chao's heart became more and more heavy. Seeing her companions tossing and tossing, one can imagine the sadness in her heart. However, after discussing with Gu Tongzhou many times, she still couldn't think of any good solution.

Under such circumstances, Xi Chao can only do what he can do as much as possible.Then it is to study the prescriptions for this disease that have been used over the years in the house.Fortunately, the people from the Tai Hospital sent by the government brought with them the records of the epidemic situation over the years, and they were able to help.

The end of April has passed in a blink of an eye, and Gu Tongzhou and Xi Chao finally had good news, that is, although the symptoms of this epidemic are acute and violent, people who are infected will have a certain life expectancy.But people who are not infected have a way to prevent the epidemic.

The reason why this epidemic is difficult to control is also because its symptoms are different from those of the epidemic a few years ago, but after seeing the ancient method, Xi Chao contacted the symptoms of the patients in the sickness workshop, and finally got some clues .

"The name of Zixue powder, I have heard from the master, but the dosage of your prescription seems to be wrong?" The prescription for epidemic prevention must be approved by the government before it can be promoted, so the county magistrate Jiang Deqing Two medical officers sent by Tai Hospital were invited to check and confirm.

"Prescribe the right medicine. Since this epidemic is different from before, the prescription will naturally be reduced. As for the effect, the people in my medicine house have tried it. Several adults can discuss it again before making a decision." Gu Tongzhou as the medicine for this time As the head of the hut, it is natural for him to speak,

The people in the Tai Hospital also felt that the epidemic was difficult. Rather than curing the patients in the hospital, they probably hoped that the plague would not spread, otherwise there would be real trouble.

Now that they heard this method of epidemic prevention, the two medical officers became very enthusiastic, and hurriedly took the prescription and went to study it.

Jiang Deqing's frown was slightly relieved at this moment, he stood up and cupped his hands to Gu Tongzhou and his party and said: "You gentlemen are really talented, I am very grateful!"

"Master Jiang, you are polite. Everyone in the medicine house is a doctor for a living. This is what we should do." Gu Tongzhou hurriedly returned the gift and said, "If that method is feasible, I hope Master Jiang will make preparations early to ensure the well-being of the people. .”

Jiang Deqing laughed: "That's natural!" After finishing speaking, he took another step forward and said in a low voice: "Doctor Gu, can you move to the back hall? I want to discuss something with Doctor Gu."

Gu Tongzhou was stunned for a moment, then looked back at Xi Chao and Shen Siyuan standing behind him, then turned to Jiang Deqing and nodded.

With a calm face, Jiang Deqing stretched out his hand and said, "Please."

Seeing this situation, Xi Chao and Shen Siyuan bowed to Mr. Jiang and retreated together.

The two waited in the room for a long time before seeing Gu Tongzhou come back.

Seeing that Gu Tongzhou's complexion was not right, Shen Siyuan had already walked to his side first, and asked with concern: "Brother Gu, is there anything else?"

Gu Tongzhou glanced at Shen Siyuan, just shook his head slightly, sat at the table and poured a cup of hot tea in his hand.

Xi Chao looked at Shen Siyuan, and happened to meet Shen Siyuan's worried eyes. The two of them sat beside Gu Tongzhou, just waiting for Gu Tongzhou to calm down.

Gu Tongzhou thought about what Jiang Deqing said just now, and before he knew it, the tea in his hand had run out of heat, so he sighed softly and looked at the two worried people beside him, before speaking slowly: "The two doctors from Tai Hospital Officer, agree to put that prescription into use."

"This is a good thing." Xi Chao said doubtfully, there must be other reasons for Gu Tongzhou's unstable mood at the moment.

Gu Tongzhou's hand holding the teacup was a little bit hard, Shen Siyuan looked at his already whitened fingertips, and couldn't bear to say: "Brother Gu, if you have something to say, let's find a solution together."

Gu Tongzhou took a deep breath, looked at the cold tea in his hand, and shook his head slightly: "You and I all thought they were here to save people, but they didn't expect to kill so many people in the end."

"Master Jiang said that the epidemic has dragged on for too long. Since the anti-epidemic prescription has been developed and will not pose a threat to others, the people who are sick..." Gu Tongzhou closed his eyes slightly before continuing: "We If those people cannot be cured, in order to prevent future troubles..."

"How?" Shen Siyuan already had a vague idea in his heart, but he couldn't believe it.

Xi Chao remembered the files he had read, and his black and white eyes rolled with countless emotions: "There was a plague in the southwest, and the medical officials were helpless. In order to protect the people of one side, all the sources of the disease were burned..."

Shen Siyuan let out an "ah".

All three of them fell silent for a while.

"However, if we can find a medicine that can cure this epidemic, there is still hope." Gu Tongzhou saw that the two of her brows were tightly furrowed, and he managed to cheer up: "The only way out now is this."

"Although Mr. Jiang has such thoughts, he needs to report to Mr. Xie Chongyi, the magistrate of Xuanzhou," Gu Tongzhou continued: "We need to take advantage of this time to find out the prescription, and we need someone to go to Xuanzhou to present it in front of Mr. Xie. Explain this matter to buy time."

Xi Chao said without thinking, "Let Siyuan go." She was already weak, and in such an environment, the danger was much greater.

Gu Tongzhou was about to nod, but saw Shen Siyuan shaking his head: "I won't go!"

She turned to look at Xi Chao: "Xi Chao, do you think I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

Xi Chao was about to explain, but was interrupted by her: "Even if it is, but now, I want to stay with Brother Gu."

Although he already knew Siyuan's feelings for Brother Gu, Xi Chao had never seen Siyuan say it so frankly.

More importantly, facing such Shen Siyuan, Xi Chao felt that he had no power to refute.

Gu Tongzhou froze for a moment, and when he looked at Shen Siyuan, he happened to see her looking at him with firm eyes.Such firm eyes turned into a kind of strength pouring into Gu Tongzhou's heart, and he smiled slightly: "Okay, let's stay together."

Xi Chao opened his mouth, but said nothing.

That night.

Xi Chao opened the door and walked to the courtyard, just in time to see Gu Tongzhou coming from the corridor.

"Brother Gu." Xi Chao looked at him: "What's the matter?"

"I've discussed the matter of Xuanzhou with other people," Gu Tongzhou said, "You can go. First, the identity of Mr. Xi is there, Xie Chongyi will always give you some face. Second... " Gu Tongzhou lowered his voice: "Secondly, if you see His Highness, you can explain the situation here to her clearly."

"Your Highness?" Xi Chao slightly opened his eyes.

"His Royal Highness may have found out something about the news from Xuanzhou tonight. She is in Xuanzhou now, but she didn't go to see Xie Chongyi. There must be something hidden in it." Gu Tongzhou said lightly.

Xi Chao knew that Yaolu had its own news channel, but he didn't know that even His Highness's whereabouts were so clear.

Gu Tongzhou saw her question and explained: "I'm afraid His Highness did it on purpose."

It was only then that Xi Chao realized it. She cupped her hands to Gu Tongzhou and said, "Brother Gu, don't worry, I will definitely hold Mr. Xie back. Here, you will have to worry too much."

Gu Tongzhou nodded, looking at the darkness in the courtyard: "Hope, tomorrow will be a good weather."
