Chapter 837 Brother Hao Has Smallpox (3)
Xu Zhen brought 30,000 elite soldiers into the city of Hao, and because of Yuxi's handwritten order, the 30,000 elite soldiers entered the city smoothly. At this time, the people of Pickaxe City are still asleep!
When he arrived at the palace, Xu Zhen didn't see Yuxi he wanted to see. Under normal circumstances, only rebels would send troops into the city, so when he received Yuxi's order to send troops, he thought that there were rebels in the city of Hao, but only after hearing Yu Zhi's words did he know that the son of the world had smallpox . The concubine was on guard against someone taking the opportunity to commit suicide, so she transferred the Qianwei battalion into the city.
When Xu Wu saw Xu Zhen, he immediately explained Yuxi's meaning: "My Lord's smallpox this time was calculated by others. The princess is now all focused on my son, and can't care about other things. She is worried that someone will take the opportunity I am a prostitute, so I ordered you to go to the city."
Xu Zhen's eyes widened angrily: "What are you talking about? The son's smallpox was calculated by others? What kind of conscienceless thing did such a vicious thing?"
Xu Wu shook his head and said: "I don't know yet, we are investigating. But the left and right are just those few people." The biggest suspect is naturally Yan Wushuang, but other enemies hiding in the dark cannot be ruled out.
Xu Zhen can't wait to dismantle the mastermind behind the scenes: "Bad boy, you won't be afraid of retribution if you do such a cruel thing to a child." Got everyone's approval.
Xu Wu also hated it, but now there are still important things to do: "The princess has sent a letter to the prince, asking him to come back as soon as possible. The prince will be able to come back from Yunnan in ten days at most. During these ten days, there will be no sons and daughters in Haocheng." .”
Xu Zhen was a little surprised when he heard this: "The concubine actually summoned the prince back? As far as I know, the front is now attacking Chuncheng." During the battle, the commander left, which was not good for the war.
Xu Wu's voice was very low, and he said: "Those who have smallpox are close to death, the princess is probably afraid that something will happen to the son, and the prince will be able to see him for the last time when he comes back." If he knew Yu Xi's true thoughts, he would not have said such words.
Xu Zhen wanted to say something, but she swallowed it back. Xu Zhen looked at the sword in his hand and said, "During this period of time, I will ensure that Pickaxe City is safe and sound."
Xu Wu said: "The concubine said that in an extraordinary period, there are extraordinary means, and anyone who dares to make a change, no matter who it is, will be killed without mercy."
Xu Zhen nodded.
After the common people woke up, officers and soldiers were suddenly everywhere in the city, and the whole city was under martial law. No matter how stupid people look at this posture, they will know that something big has happened. Unless they have to go out, they will stay at home.
When Lu Xiu was having breakfast, she was shocked when she heard that the whole city was under martial law. She immediately asked the housekeeper to find out what happened.
The steward came back soon and said, "Ma'am, the martial law was ordered by the concubine. As for what happened, I didn't find out." Brother Hao had smallpox, and everyone in the palace knew about it. But no one in the palace is allowed to go out now, so the story of brother Hao's smallpox has not been reported yet.
Lu Xiu put down her chopsticks and said worriedly, "This is a big deal."
Knowing that Lu Xiu was going to the palace, Brother Shun shook his head and said, "Mother, if something really happened to the palace, we wouldn't be able to help you in the past."
Lu Xiu asked: "Then what should we do? You can't just wait?" You must know what happened.
Han Jiashun said: "Isn't the fifth brother in the palace? He should know what happened. Let's send someone to ask the fifth brother." In fact, Jiashun envied Jiahua very much, but unfortunately he was too old to follow the son.
Lu Xiu thought for a while and said, "You go there yourself." It's not a trivial matter to send troops into the city, and I don't feel relieved to leave it to other people to inquire about the news.
Han Jiashun didn't see Brother Hua, because all four of Brother Hao's companions were quarantined, and this was to prevent one of the four from getting infected.
But Han Jiashun got what he wanted to know from Han Ji.
Hearing that brother Hao had smallpox, Lu Xiu was so frightened that he couldn't stand still: "How could it be? How could the son have smallpox?"
Jia Shun was calmer, and said: "I'm afraid someone wants to kill the son. Mother, we have to close the door." Let alone other people, even he himself didn't have smallpox!
Lu Xiu quickly calmed down and said, "Where is the princess? What is the princess doing now?"
Jiashun said: "My aunt handed over the government affairs to Tan Tuo and other important officials, and she went to take care of the eldest son herself." Jiashun respected Yuxi very much.
Lu Xiu was a little surprised: "The princess takes care of the son himself?" She put aside everything for the sake of her son, and it was a bit irresponsible to be the ruler in Northwest China. But as a mother, it makes sense.
Jia Shun hummed and said: "Yes. But I heard that my aunt had smallpox before, so even if she takes care of the son personally, it will be fine."
Lu Xiu nodded and said: "The princess had smallpox when she was four years old." As for the specifics, she didn't know.
Jia Shun told Lu Xiu the good news: "Mother, Housekeeper Han told me that Dad has recovered."
If it was yesterday, she would definitely be very happy to hear the news. But now, Lu Xiu couldn't laugh: "I hope the son will get better soon."
Brother Hao burned all night, and Yu Xi never left him, and would feed him water every quarter of an hour.
Tong Fang looked at Yu Xi's haggard look, and said: "Princess, go eat something and rest!" Seeing Yu Xi not moving, Tong Fang persuaded: "Princess, Doctor Jian said that the high fever usually lasts for four or five days. , if you don’t eat or rest for the past few days, how can your body survive? If you collapse, how can you take care of the son yourself?”
Yuxi is not the kind of person who doesn't listen to persuasion, she nodded immediately and said: "Ah Hao's lips are a bit dry, you can wipe his lips with a handkerchief soaked in water."
Tong Fang said: "Princess, don't worry, I know everything."
The breakfast is very rich, including red dates and wolfberry porridge, steamed buns, flower rolls, egg pancakes, and four side dishes. These are all prepared by Bai Mama and sent over.
Yuxi has no appetite, but for the sake of her body, she can't eat and stuffs it into her mouth. After eating most of the food delivered, she asked people to take it away.
After eating, he went back into the house. Seeing that Tong Fang was feeding water to brother Hao with a silver spoon, Yuxi said, "If Ah Hao wakes up, call me." This is a protracted battle, and she must keep her energy up before she collapses.
Tong Fang nodded and said: "Princess, don't worry, I will call you when the son wakes up."
Yuxi didn't go to the next room to rest, and lay directly on the soft couch in the room.
In a daze, Yuxi seemed to hear Brother Hao calling his mother, and she woke up with a jerk. In fact, Yuxi didn't fall asleep just now, she just took a nap.
Tong Fang said a little at a loss: "Princess, my son..."
Brother Hao didn't wake up at this time, but his expression was very painful, and he cried for his mother while crying. What Yu Xi heard just now was not a hallucination, it was indeed Brother Hao calling him.
Seeing this, Yuxi couldn't bear it anymore, rushed forward and hugged Brother Hao in her arms, and said repeatedly while crying: "Ah Hao, don't be afraid, mother is here. Ah Hao, don't be afraid, mother is here... ..."
After a long time, Brother Hao gradually stopped crying and calmed down. Yuxi waited for a while, and seeing that Brother Hao was not crying anymore, she immediately called Dr. Jian to come over to have a look.
Dr. Jian said: "Generally, a rash will appear two days before the fever."
With Yu Xi's consent, Dr. Jian unbuttoned Brother Hao's clothes, and saw that Brother Hao's abdomen and thighs were covered with dense red dots, which looked very scary.
Yu Xi wiped her tears and asked, "Doctor Jian, what should we do now?"
Doctor Jian had long expected that a rash would appear, so he handed Yuxi a box of ointment that he made last night and said, "Apply this ointment on the rash, and it will make the rash disappear quickly."
Yuxi hurriedly nodded and followed suit. The effect of this medicine is very good, and the rash slowly dissipated within half an hour after rubbing it on.
Brother Hao just fed food in the afternoon, before Yuxi could take a breath, Brother Hao vomited again.
The bed and clothes were all dirty, and Tong Fang immediately replaced them with new ones. Yuxi held a glass of water, and fed it to Brother Hao with a small spoonful. Yu Xi said while feeding the water: "Ah Hao, there is meat ganoderma powder in this water, it can make you feel better soon. Ah Hao, you can drink it all!"
After a while, Tong Fang said pleasantly: "Princess, the son of the world didn't vomit..."
Before he finished speaking, Brother Hao started to vomit. But this time it was better than before, only half of it was spit out.
When Dr. Jian heard Yu Xi's words, she was a little suspicious: "Did the princess say that there was ganoderma lucidum powder in the water just now?"
Yu Xi nodded and said: "I only put a medicine powder the size of a small fingernail." Seeing Dr. Jian bowing her head and pondering, Yu Xi asked with some concern: "Doctor Jian, drinking this stuff shouldn't cause any harm, right?" Yu Xi Xie didn't know if eating this food would be useful, but it was better to eat it than nothing at this time.
Dr. Jian said: "This is a good thing, but it's better not to give it to my son. This thing is a great tonic. My body may not be able to bear it now."
Yu Xi hurriedly nodded and said, "I won't let him use it anymore."
Doctor Jian is quite satisfied with Yuxi's cooperation. He has practiced medicine for so many years, and what he fears most is that he will be beaten and killed if he encounters powerful and powerful people. He is a doctor, if he could be saved, would he just sit idly by. But if you can't save him, it's useless to kill him.
Doctor Jian said: "Princess, just now you had such a conversation with Shi Ziye, Shi Ziye drank some water. I see that this prescription is useful to Shi Ziye, Wangfei will talk more in front of Shizi Ye."
Doctor Jian said this before, and Yu Xi did as he said: "Okay."
In the afternoon, he fed food again, this time Brother Hao didn't vomit anymore. Doctor Jian took the pulse and said: "My son is able to eat without vomiting, this is a good sign."
Yu Xi asked: "Doctor Jian, when will Ah Hao's fever go down?"
Dr. Jian couldn't answer this question: "It depends on the situation. Some people's fever subsides in two days, while others take five days." Individual constitutions are different, and the results are naturally different.
Yuxi asked: "I remember that I was very itchy when I had smallpox." At that time, in order to prevent him from scratching, Mother Fang tied her hands up.
Dr. Jian looked at Yuxi and said: "That's the scarring stage, and there is no danger to life when it reaches the scarring stage." Some people didn't hold back the itch and scratched it with their hands and got scars, but this is not life-threatening , the most is the loss of appearance.
Youqing walked in and said, "Princess, Master Xu and General Xu want to see the concubine, and are waiting outside now."
Yuxi stood up and said to Tong Fang, "You take care of the son." Then she walked out.
Smallpox is highly contagious, so the gate of Jingyuan Hall in Brother Hao's yard has been closed since last night. People inside cannot go out, and people outside cannot come in.
Yuxi met Xu Wu and Xu Zhen at the gate, but the gate was not opened. Smallpox is so contagious, Yuxi dare not take risks.
Even though the door was not opened, Xu Zhen heard Yu Xi's voice, and after saluting as usual, he asked, "Princess, how is your son doing now? Is it better?"
Yu Xi shook her head and said, "I'm still running a high fever. The doctor said that the high fever will last for a few days, and it's just started now."
Xu Zhen and Xu Wu had serious expressions on their faces.
When Yu Xi came to see Xu Wu this time, she also had something to ask him: "How are Liu Er and Brother Rui doing? Are they infected?" This is the reason why she came out to see Xu Wu and Xu Zhen. If Liu'er and Brother Rui also had smallpox, Yuxi was afraid that she would not be able to hold on.
Xu Wu shook his head and said: "Princess, don't worry, the Second Princess and the Second Young Master are not different."
How could Yuxi rest assured, she shook her head and said: "It will take a few more days to be sure." If after another three or four days, there are no abnormalities in the few people, it means that they are not infected.
Xu Zhen hurriedly said: "Princess, I believe that the Second Princess and the Second Young Master will be fine."
Yuxi naturally hoped that Liu'er and the others would be fine: "I asked you to investigate, how did the investigation go?"
Xu Wu said: "Nurse Quan said that apart from food and drink, it is just clothing and daily necessities."
Yuxi shook her head and said: "You can only be infected if you come into contact with patients with smallpox or the things they use. I haven't heard of it being transmitted through food." Moreover, Brother Hao's three meals a day are all cooked by Mother Bai. There can't be a problem.
Xu Wu hummed and said: "Nurse Quan also said the same, so it should be that the clothes or wearables of the son of the prince were put dirty things in daily use, and the master of the prince was infected only when he came into contact with it. "
After pondering for a moment, Yu Xi said: "Brother Hao has not gone out during this time, and the things he uses daily have not changed. But some time ago, I asked the sewing room to make autumn clothes for their five siblings." Jing Yuantang Every one of them is carefully selected by Yuxi, and the background is very clean, and irrelevant people are not allowed to enter and leave the Jingyuan Hall, and the probability of trying to tamper with the things Hao Geer uses daily is very small. On the contrary, the sewing room was crowded with people, so it was relatively easy to tamper with the autumn clothes made for Brother Hao.
Quan Momo also suspected that the autumn clothes of the new work had been tampered with, so he asked Xu Wu to come and pick up the clothes.
Yu Xi turned and went back, and immediately had someone take the clothes Brother Hao had been wearing for the past half month to Xu Wu. (to be continued)
