Chapter 376 Smallpox ([-])

"Let mother worry about it! My daughter-in-law is always in good health, she is sweating after taking the medicine, just take a rest!" Yao Cunhui smiled.

"That's not OK!"

"Princess, don't blame this old slave for meddling! If you are really ill, this old slave will have nothing to say to Madam!" Li's mother stepped forward and knelt towards Yao Cunhuifu.

"I know my mother is doing it for my own good too!" Yao Cunhui raised her hand with a smile.Only Mother Li dared to disobey her words and run to tell Mrs. Xiao.

"Doctor Hu has come! Let her make a diagnosis!" Mrs. Xiao smiled, and while speaking, the two women had already brought four small and light flower-and-bird screens specially made, stood in front of the bed, and carefully opened them.Yao Cunhui's hand was stretched out, resting on the brocade mat.

Then someone went out and invited Dr. Hu to come in.

Physician Hu took the pulse, and couldn't help frowning. He accidentally glanced at Yao Cunhui's exposed wrist, and was shocked. Look at the princess' wrist and forearm!"

"Doctor Hu, this is—" Mrs. Xiao was a little surprised and displeased.

Yao Cunhui is a princess after all, and although Imperial Physician Hu is not young, this request is still bold enough to be heard!
Yao Cunhui didn't pay much attention to it. The doctor's diagnosis, the more clearly you can see the disease, the more you can find the disease. There is nothing to refuse.Dang even nodded: "No problem, please go ahead!"

Seeing that Yao Cunhui had already said that, Mrs. Xiao nodded slightly to Imperial Physician Hu.He ordered Li's mother to roll up Yao Cunhui's sleeves, exposing a section of her forearm near her wrist.

Doctor Hu made a complaint and stepped forward to take a closer look.

It didn't matter if he looked at it, his footsteps stopped heavily, his eyes darkened, and he almost fainted.

"Ma'am," Imperial Physician Hu said in a trembling voice full of nervousness, "Please forgive me for being rude! Take a quick look, are there any red spots on Wang Hao's neck, arms, and chest?
There was a "buzz" in Yao Cunhui's mind, and two scary words flashed: smallpox!

As expected, what she contracted was smallpox!
Mrs. Xiao's face was sallow, and her body limp and fell backwards in fright, Rong Ma, Hong Liao, etc. immediately cried out, and the maids and women were panic-stricken and fell into a mess for a while.

In contrast, Yao Cunhui was the calmest.Hastily forced himself to stop the crowd.

Mama Rong and Mama Li came to their senses, and stopped talking a few times before calming everyone down.

"Doctor Hu! You must save the princess, you must save her!" After recovering, Mrs. Xiao's face was full of tears, and her words were choked with sobs.

"I will definitely do my best! Madam, please listen to my arrangement!" Imperial Physician Hu dared not to guarantee such a thing, so he had to say so.

"Mom, I'll be fine! Don't worry!" Yao Cunhui's head was burning badly, but his heart felt cold.

smallpox?How could she have contracted smallpox!
These days, she didn't go to any place she shouldn't go to, and she didn't come into contact with anyone she shouldn't be in contact with!
Imperial Physician Hu immediately ordered to open a relatively remote courtyard alone, and move Yao Cunhui in to live there. He could only prescribe some antipyretic medicine to try.The inside and outside of the Xihe Hall, as well as the courtyard, are disinfected twice a day, and the upper and lower people are also forbidden to go out and walk around behind closed doors, and then take the prescription he prescribed every day. Once symptoms such as headache and fever are found, they should be promptly Report it, otherwise your life will be in danger.

He also ordered Yao Cunhui to burn all the clothes Yao Cunhui wore that season, including bedding, pillows, sheets and curtains...

After hurriedly giving orders for half a day, and explaining the details of how to take care of Yao Cunhui's daily life and taking medicine, it was finally over.

Mrs. Xiao refused to let Imperial Physician Hu leave the mansion, she asked someone to tidy up the guest room and invite him to stay, and then sent someone to invite Shen Quan back quickly.

Xihetang made such a commotion, everyone in the whole family knew about it, and everyone was shocked!Xihetang suddenly became synonymous with plague, and no one dared to take a step closer.All the people in the mansion also became chaotic one by one, jumping around, crying and shouting.All of them were afraid that they might be infected too, so they hurriedly needed to disinfect and drink medicine.

Old Madam Shen was so angry that she came out to sit in the town herself, arrested several of those who took the lead in spreading rumors and making troubles, and they were beaten in public and sent to Zhuangzi, and everyone settled down.

Afterwards, Mrs. Shen ordered the housekeepers and stewards to purchase medicines and medicines, disinfect the places, and ordered the big kitchen to boil the medicines and distribute them to everyone.

He was busy asking people to go to Xihe Hall to inquire about the situation, and sent a message to comfort Yao Cunhui and Mrs. Xiao.

When Shen Quan rushed back, Yao Cunhui had already moved into a wing room in the west courtyard of Xihe Hall that was packed out in a hurry.A girl named Qiaomai who has just been selected from Zhuangzi is taking care of her personally.

Originally, Rong Ma, Rhizoma Polygonum, Xiao Xing and others wanted to stay and serve Yao Cunhui, how could Yao Cunhui agree?As soon as the diagnosis was made, she asked them all to leave her side, and those who spoke stood far away, covering their mouths and noses with silk veils.Please Mrs. Xiao find a servant who has had smallpox to serve her.

Physician Hu even said that this should be the case, otherwise once the infection spreads, the consequences will be unimaginable, and it will be harmful to Yao Cunhui.

Mrs. Xiao, Rong Ma, and Hong Liao cried to death, watching Buckwheat help Yao Cunhui into the courtyard.

When Shen Quan came back, Xihetang was full of unpleasant and pungent smells, sour vinegar was splashed on the ground, quicklime was sprinkled in the ditch, and small piles of mugwort, calamus, etc. were burning everywhere.A strong astringent smell of bitter medicine wafted from the small kitchen.

His eyes are full of desolation, like the rest of his life after a catastrophe.

The air was full of thrilling panic and the breath of death.

Shen Quan was shocked, and was still in disbelief after being stunned for a while!Is this his home?Is this the home that was still full of warmth and tranquility when he left in the morning!

Huier!Shen Quan suddenly thought of Yao Cunhui, grabbed someone to ask, and went to the direction of Xikuayuan without hesitation.

Knowing that he was back, Mrs. Xiao rushed over from the living room and screamed, "Kan'er!" Before anyone could help her, she ran towards him, grabbed his arm, shook her head desperately and wept, "Kan'er!" ! Quan'er!"

The life and death of the daughter-in-law is uncertain in it, and if there are any mishaps with the son, she will not be alive!
"My lord! Calm down!"

"My lord, don't go! The princess will be unhappy if she knows that you don't cherish yourself so much!"

"My lord, the mansion still wants you to preside over the overall situation!"

Mama Li, Mama Rong and others persuaded me.

Shen Quan stared at the grief-stricken mother for a few moments, his fist tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, and finally dropped powerlessly.

He didn't know that the situation inside was dangerous, but the life and death inside was his beloved wife!

With his mother at one end and his beloved wife at the other, Shen Quan felt for the first time that being passionate was better than being ruthless.If it was in the past, Mrs. Xiao would not listen to how much she persuaded him.So what about the Zhenxi Palace, what about his mother, if Huier goes, what value and meaning does his existence have!

"Qian'er, Quan'er!" Madam Xiao saw that the expression on his face finally relaxed, and she also relaxed in her heart, and said with a choked voice, "Hui'er is auspicious, she will be fine, she will be safe and sound!"

"En!" Shen Quan nodded, but his eyes were still fixed on Yao Cunhui's direction.

"My lord, there are people serving my wangfei! Don't worry! Doctor Hu also said that my wangfei is also well versed in medicine. If there is any change in the situation, she will definitely notice and notify us immediately. My lord, you can't have anything to do now!" Li's mother also tried to persuade her.

While talking, buckwheat came out from inside, and everyone hurriedly surrounded it.

Buckwheat hurriedly said that the princess was fine, and wanted to pass a few words to the prince!Then he told Yao Cunhui what he said, and told him to rest assured.When Shen Quan got her words, he really let go of his heart.

Several people came to sit down in the flower hall of the second courtyard.

Mrs. Xiao had already ordered someone to tidy up several houses in the courtyard of the second entrance, and asked Shen Quan to live here temporarily for these days, and the original houses were being disinfected.

Shen Quan frowned slightly, but did not refuse.

He glanced over Rong Ma, Hong Liao, Li Mama, Hemerocallis and the others, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You guys are the ones who serve the princess when she goes in and out of daily life. How could this happen? Think about it carefully these days. What unusual things happened? Where has the concubine been, who has she met, and who have come to our Xihetang, think about it all!"

"That's right! Hui'er has always been in good health. You are with her all day long. Why is she the only one? Think about it! Think about it carefully, and tell me anything suspicious!" Mrs. Xiao was also concerned. a tight.

Everyone's eyes froze, each thinking deeply.It was half a ring and no one spoke.Rong Ma's brows were so wrinkled that she could hardly let go, racking her brains.

"Who cares about the princess's underwear?" Shen Quan asked suddenly.Shen Quan has led the army to fight for many years, and has a little understanding of various plagues and infectious diseases. Yao Cunhui is with him at night, and there are people around him during the day. Everyone is fine, so the most likely smallpox infection is through underwear. superior.

With a sob, Hong Liao stepped forward and knelt down, "It's a servant! All the clothes, shoes and socks of the princess are taken care of by the servant! The key in the clothes room is never left by the servant!"

"Have you found anything wrong recently?"

Hong Liao shook his head lightly, suddenly froze, and changed color: "Your servant remembered! A few days ago, my servant brought a set of middle clothes to the princess, and the princess said something about the dress after she put it on. It seems to be a little different, I asked the maidservant if she took it by mistake, and the maidservant smiled and said that the clothes are all washed in the laundry room of our Xihetang, how could it be wrong! Could it be—"

"Bring the clothes!" Shen Quan hurriedly said.Everyone also became tense all of a sudden.

"Yes!"

Hong Liao hurried back, and after a while, she ran out with a middle coat, and said by luck: "The princess's clothes were almost packed and taken out to be burned, and the servants searched for a long time to find them!"

Mrs. Xiao was very annoyed, and quickly told Mama Li: "Go and tell them to stop, all the clothes of the princess are temporarily put away, and no one is allowed to move!"

Why didn't she think of this?Fortunately, Shen Quan came back early and asked early, otherwise, once Yao Cunhui's clothes were burned, wouldn't the evidence hidden in them be destroyed!
"Are you sure it's this one?" Shen Quan took the jacket and looked at it carefully.Mrs. Xiao's heart was in her throat, she wanted to stop her but she didn't dare to say it.

　Thank you labor and capital for your kind reward, ^_^
