Zhuo Qihua

Chapter 35

In the Xingxing Hall of Fengtian Temple, Wei Yingshi, with a tired face, unshaven beard, and dark eyes, stood in front of the imperial case and reported: "Your Majesty, the three princess's mumps invaded the brain, and by the way, it is concurrent meningitis. Mumps Once the disease enters the brain, there is no doubt that death is inevitable. It is a blessing in misfortune to save the life of the third princess without sleep for five days. The reason why the third princess is so serious is that the conclusion of the three princesses is because The palace servants around the princess were infected with mumps and were not isolated in time. The third princess herself was also infected with mumps.

"Most of the princesses are confined in the palace on weekdays, unlike His Royal Highness who usually practice martial arts and have a strong body. The third princess is younger than His Highness, and her body is delicate and delicate. This cross-infection, the princess's survival depends on By the way. By the way, the three princesses may be able to stand up after recovery. Even if they can't stand up, there is still a great possibility of recovery with acupuncture and moxibustion. But the left ear is deaf. However, it cannot be reversed.”

More than a dozen people died of complications in Danyang Palace.Three palace servants died in Lianyi Palace, two of them were the third princess' personal maids, all due to complications.Zhuo Ji and the imperial physician are busy saving the three princesses, so Zhuo Ji will not talk about it. The imperial physician has no time to personally treat the palace servants who have caused complications. In ancient times without antibiotics, if complications occur, it is almost certain death, Zhuo Ji There is no way.

Emperor Yong'an closed his eyes, opened them again, and asked, "Where is Shunyou now? Still in Lianyi Palace?"

"By the way, I'm going back to Xiangfu Palace. The princess's high fever has subsided, and the mumps has begun to ease. The remaining ministers are already able to deal with it, so there's no need to stand by me any more."

Emperor Yong'an nodded: "The entire Imperial Medical Office has worked hard these days. After the mumps pass, I will reward you heavily."

"This is what the minister should do. If there is no obedience, the minister will be helpless." The Imperial Medical Office would never dare to take the credit for the obedience.

At this time, Feng Xi walked in quickly with a face that looked like he was about to cry: "Your Majesty! By the way, you have a fever!"

"What?!" Emperor Yong'an who got up too fast and violently even knocked down the stack of memorials on the table to the ground.

Zhang Xian was also scared to death, Feng Xi: "Wang Bao came over and said that he fell ill when he returned to Xiangfu Palace, and now he has a fever!"

Emperor Yong'an shook his body, lifted his foot and walked out.Zhang Xian chased after him: "Long live! Long live, you can't go!"

"Go away! Don't let anyone stop me!"

Regardless of Zhang Xian and Wei Yingshi's dissuasion, Emperor Yong'an hurried all the way to Xiangfu Palace without even sitting in a chariot.Seeing His Majesty coming down, the palace people of Xiangfu Palace were also startled.Wearing a mask, Emperor Yong'an kicked open the closed door and went straight to Zhuo Ji's inner bedroom.

On the bed, Zhuo Ji's complexion was pale, and his eyes were black and blue. Yuan Xiu and Aunt Hua who were serving by the bed were both wearing white masks. They were crying, and there was a pot of hot water beside the bed.As soon as Emperor Yong'an came in, he asked Wei Yingshi to inspect Zhuo Ji immediately, Zhuo Ji frowned: "Your Majesty, why are you here?"

"Don't talk!" Emperor Yong'an's face was livid under the mask.

Wei Yingshi did not dare to delay Zhuo Ji's inspection.Zhuo Ji said weakly: "Your Majesty, I may just have a cold, not a mump."

Emperor Yong'an frowned tightly and did not speak.After Wei Yingshi carefully inspected it, he was obviously relieved, turned around and said, "Your Majesty, it's due to fatigue and fever. It should be that you have been too tired for a while. You can't bear it. Take a good rest and warm up. Fan, it's all right."

When Aunt Hua and Yuan Xiu heard this, they almost cried out, they were scared to death.Emperor Yong'an clenched his fists, stretched out his hand to hold Zhuo Ji's hot hand, and said, "Shut up, don't worry me."

Zhuo Ji: "Your Majesty, the minister's fate is at stake. You should go back quickly."

"I will leave after you take the medicine and sleep."

Zhuo Ji shook Emperor Yong'an's hand and closed his eyes, he was too tired.

Wei Yingshi prescribed the medicine, and Yuan Xiu took the prescription and went to get the medicine and boil it herself.Emperor Yong'an waited until Yuan Xiu brought the boiled medicine, woke Zhuo Ji up, fed him the medicine, and Zhuo Ji fell asleep again before he left Xiangfu Palace.However, Emperor Yong'an still ordered Wei Yingshi to die. Before Zhuo Ji recovered from his illness, the Imperial Medical Office would send people to guard Xiangfu Palace.

Zhuo Ji's fever not only almost scared Emperor Yong'an to death, but also the Empress Dowager, Jia Guixie and Dezhen were all shocked.Knowing that Zhuo Ji was overworked and suffering from internal heat, Concubine Xi cried with joy.If Zhuo Ji contracted mumps, she would really be doomed!

All the palaces are paying attention to Zhuo Ji's condition.Some people hoped that he would get better soon, and some people said they were worried, but in their hearts they wished that he would die quickly.The air pressure in Fengtian Palace for the past two days was extremely low. If Zhuo Ji hadn't had symptoms of gills all this time, Emperor Yong'an's anger would definitely ignite the entire Danyang Palace.But even so, Zhang Xian could tell that His Majesty was trying to suppress the fire.Now the mumps disease in Danyang Palace, Dongluo City and the surrounding area of ​​the capital has not been completely controlled. Once the situation is brought under control, His Majesty will definitely settle accounts later in the fall.

Zhuo Ji was exhausted this time, and once again he deeply felt that he had been too decadent and physically scumbag in the past ten years.After four days of fever, Zhuo Ji's fever subsided, but his body was limp, with the weakness after illness.In the small kitchen of Xiangfu Palace, all kinds of tonic soups have never stopped.Aunt Hua brought chicken soup into the room, and Zhuo Ji, who was half lying on the bed, still looked very bad.He was so busy before that he didn't have time to sleep, at most he would just take a nap on the chair.After returning to the palace for the past few days, he started to have nightmares again at night, and he was sick again, which was even more painful.

"Master, you drank the chicken soup, take a nap."

Zhuo Ji took the bowl and asked, "How is the situation in the palace?"

Aunt Hua replied: "I haven't heard of any new infections. Doctor Liu said that the situation outside the palace is stable. Some people have complications, and the Imperial Medical Office can't help."

Zhuo Ji nodded. His ability alone is limited, and there are no antibiotics here. Once complications arise, he will easily die.Aunt Hua said: "Master, you rescued the third princess, no one dares to say that you took the credit of the Imperial Medical Office."

Zhuo Ji said indifferently: "You can say whatever you want. How is the third princess? Can you stand up?"

Aunt Hua shook her head: "The eldest princess hasn't lost her fever yet. Doctor Wei ordered them to do acupuncture for the third princess, but the effect was not great. The eldest princess and the third princess were dragged down. The fourth princess is fine."

Zhuo Ji refused to comment on the actions of Concubine Xiao and Concubine Wen. He sighed and said, "It is the children who suffer the most, and His Majesty must be in a bad mood. If the effect of acupuncture and moxibustion on the side of the three princesses has not been very effective, it will Let's do it another way."

Aunt Hua: "Master, don't worry about it. If you cured the third princess, Concubine Wen may not necessarily accept your favor. There are rumors outside the palace that you cured the great highness, but you can't cure the third princess. You said it was because Concubine Wen offended you, but you didn't do your best, Master Wen. It must be Concubine Wen talking about it."

Zhuo Ji said calmly: "There are too many idlers in the palace, and gossip and gossip are inevitable. I care about the third princess, and it has nothing to do with Concubine Wen. The third princess is His Majesty's daughter. No father is willing to see his child suffer, even if he is the emperor." Aunt Hua, go and invite Doctor Wei to come."

Aunt Hua endured it, and still complied with her master's request, and went out to send someone to invite Wei Yiling.Zhuo Ji had established a friendship with Wei Yingshi at Concubine Wen's place.

Wei Yingshi has been busy in various palaces of Danyang Palace, and spent the longest time in Concubine Wen's Palace of Ripples.Knowing that Shun Yu wanted to see him, Wei Yingshi handed over the matter at hand to a doctor and immediately went to Xiangfu Palace.Now everyone in the palace is wearing masks, and Wei Yingshi is no exception.As soon as Wei Yingshi came in, he asked, "Cui, is there something wrong with you?"

"No, I heard that the third princess is still unable to stand, please come over and discuss it."

Wei Yingshi sighed after hearing the words: "Humble and Bo Yi ordered the third princess to receive acupuncture every day, but the third princess's waist and legs are weak. Concubine Wen shed tears every day. Although Your Majesty did not blame her, she must be worried."

Zhuo Ji nodded: "The third princess is His Majesty's daughter, so how could His Majesty not be worried. Aunt Hua, get me a pen and paper, just a pencil."

When Wei Yingshi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Cuchu, you are still sick, don't worry about it anymore. If you are still not well, His Majesty will also be worried."

"I'm fine, I'm just talking to Doctor Wei Ling, and I need you and the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Office to work on the details."

Hua Yuexi fetched a pen and paper.Wei Yingshi was really surprised when he saw a pencil for the first time.

What Zhuo Ji wanted to tell Wei Yingshi was rehabilitation medicine.The left ear is deaf, and the right ear can distinguish sounds. The third princess is only five years old. If she can only lie on the bed like this, this child who is still in the stage of ignorance of the world will be really ruined.The royal family doesn't need a paralyzed and deaf princess.

Wei Yingshi sat beside Zhuo Ji's bed for more than two hours, and hurriedly left Xiangfu Palace with a dozen pieces of paper.Wei Yingshi did not go directly to the Imperial Medical Office, but went to Fengtian Hall.Emperor Yong'an carefully read over a dozen of Zhuo Ji's writings and paintings, and then handed them to Wei Yingshi: "Do as you say."

"Yes."

Wei Yingshi took the things to the Imperial Medical Office, but Emperor Yong'an's expression did not improve at all.Zhang Xian poured a cup of freshly brewed hot tea for His Majesty, and brought it to His Majesty.

"Zhang Xian."

"The servant is here!"

Emperor Yong'an picked up the teacup, was silent for a moment, and said: "I only gave him one seat, and I have wronged him."

Zhang Xian immediately said: "Long live, I don't care about this. If it weren't for Wanzai, you went to the West Third Courtyard on a whim, and you are still hiding in the West Third Courtyard now."

Emperor Yong'an looked at Zhang Xian: "Then tell me, what reward is the most suitable for me to give him? He is crying poor with me, but he doesn't want me to give him money directly. If I ask him, he will just tell me that he doesn't want to sleep with me. "

Zhang Xian covered his mouth and smiled, and said: "Long live, by the way, I have told Wan live more than once what you want."

"What?" Emperor Yong'an frowned, why didn't he remember?

Zhang Xian: "Didn't you just say so? I just want to eat and die."

Emperor Yong'an was stunned for a moment, then he laughed, and then said with some emotion: "Yes, what he wants most is to eat and wait to die..." He flicked the tea in the tea bowl, and Emperor Yong'an took a sip of tea, Putting down the tea bowl, "He has no ambition. But if he wants to eat and die, I will give it to him."

Zhang Xian said with a smile: "This is all over the world, and only Long live you can let Shun Youyou eat and wait for death in peace and quiet. Shun Youyou is so concerned about Long live your affairs, isn't it because I hope that I can do more for you?" Long live you relieve your worries, let Wan live you be in a good mood and in good health, can you be your backer? Long live, you are in good health, so you can do whatever you want."

Emperor Yong'an smiled again: "You can almost catch up with him with your mouth." After a long sigh of relief, Emperor Yong'an said: "I am indeed in a bad mood these days. But you are right, in this world, apart from me, And who can let him relax and let him eat and die?"

"Isn't it, long live."

Emperor Yong'an: "Go to Xiangfu Palace and tell him to take good care of his illness and stop meddling in the affairs of the palace. He is my servant, he only needs to serve me well."

"Yes."

After receiving Zhang Xian's message, Zhuo Ji was really stunned. When he realized the meaning of Zhang Xian's words, he waved his hand to let Aunt Hua and Yuan Xiu in the room go out, and asked, "Eunuch Zhang, Your Majesty..."

Zhang Xian stopped at the point: "Cuchu, you are tired and sick because of the three princesses, and you are still thinking about it all the time during this illness. Your Majesty is very touched and loves you very much. It's just that in this palace, The mother is more expensive by the child, and the son is also more expensive by the mother. If the concubine Xiao and the concubine Wen hadn't violated His Majesty's holy will, the eldest princess and the third princess would not have suffered such a catastrophe. Now, the princesses in the palace will Jingui is not as important as you to His Majesty. Your health has been bad, and Your Majesty has no appetite even for meals."

Zhuo Ji lowered his eyes, hiding the emotions in his eyes: "Thank you for your kindness, I will concentrate on recuperating."

"The servant will report the truth to His Majesty."

Zhang Xian left, Zhuo Ji lay down.Zhang Xian clicked to stop, he could understand.Concubine Xiao and Concubine Wen are afraid that things will go wrong, and the princess they gave birth to will not have a high status in the heart of His Majesty the Emperor.If it was him before the age of 27 in "that life", he would feel that Emperor Yong'an was too cold-blooded, and he deserved to be the most ruthless emperor's family.But after the age of 27, after experiencing such a world of purgatory, Emperor Yong'an's cold blood seemed normal to him.Perhaps, in some places, he may be more cold-blooded and ruthless than Emperor Yong'an, but he hasn't had the chance to show it yet.

The news of the three princesses never reached Zhuo Ji's ears, and Zhuo Ji didn't pay any special attention to it.After lying in bed for another seven days, Zhuo Ji got out of bed.Zhuo Ji, who was recovering from illness, made a training plan for himself.In mid-November, the epidemic that caused great panic in Dongluo City and dozens of surrounding counties was finally eliminated with the timely control of the Tai Medical Office and the drop in temperature.The disease that would have killed at least hundreds of people ended up with only 48 deaths, more than half of them children under the age of eight.But for the people of Mata country, this can be regarded as a blessing from God.

When the Imperial Medical Office announced that the monitoring of the disease was over and that the epidemic had passed safely, the palace people in Danyang Palace wept with joy, and finally they were able to take off the masks they had been wearing for more than a month.On the day when the mask was removed, Emperor Yong'an issued several imperial edicts.All the top and bottom of the Tai Medical Department commended.Concubine Xiao and Concubine Wen were demoted to concubines, removed from the main palace and moved to side palaces, Yan Xuan was demoted to Dounan, concubine Yao (Wu family) was demoted to nobleman.Concubine Xi, as the head of the East Eighth Palace, disregarded the holy will, and failed to supervise the concubines of the East Eighth Palace. She was fined one year's silver and three months after the penalty. If she committed another crime, she would be severely punished.

For those members of the royal family who did not follow the holy will in this incident, money was deducted, fines were fined, those who were demoted were demoted, and those who were punished were punished.Only Wu Shao Palace and Xianyi Palace escaped.Speaking of which, Wu Shao's mansion and Xianyi's mansion escaped from the "catastrophe" is also related to Wu Shao's son Nan Rong Shizhu.Nan Rong Shizhu was "closed" to test medicine in Daxing Palace. On the night of the palace banquet, he told Nan Rong Shili that His Majesty the Emperor gave him a trial of the Di'an pill prepared by the Imperial Medical Office, and his yang energy recovered a lot.When Nan Rong Shili returned to the mansion, she told her father about it, and there was a lot of envy in her words.I envy Nan Rong Shi Zhu being chosen by His Majesty to test the medicine, and I also envy Nan Rong Shi Zhu being able to eat such a miraculous Di'an pill.

Nanrong Shizhu was released from the palace as soon as the epidemic gills happened.His Majesty ordered the clan's relatives to take precautions. Nan Rong Shizhu was very convinced of the Imperial Medical Office recently, because he was also very convinced of the Di'an Pill.Your Majesty said to take precautions, but Nam Rong Shizhu resolutely followed through.Nanrong Shizhu is the eldest son, he went to Daxing Palace and came back in good health, so King Wu Shao was naturally happy.The prince said to listen to His Majesty, so listen.

Nan Rong Shili saw that Nan Rong Shizhu was so obedient, thinking about the dian pills that Nanrong Shizhu ate, he also decided to follow in Nanrong Shizhu's footsteps.Therefore, the Palace of Xianyi also implemented it seriously.When His Majesty began to settle accounts this time, King Xianyi and King Wu Shao breathed a sigh of relief. It was the first time they discovered that their son was not so useless.

After finishing the calculation, Emperor Yong'an asked Zhang Xian to go to Xiangfu Palace to preach the decree, bestowing Shunyu Qingchi for one night.
