Chapter 385 Chaos
Han Jingdong was wounded in his abdomen and bled profusely. When Qiu arrived at Wuyouyuan, Han Jingdong's wounds had already been bandaged, but because of excessive blood loss and the injury was a vital part, Han Jingdong fell into a coma at this time.
Qiu Shi turned to Han Yong and said, "Have you sent someone to invite the doctor?"
Han Yong nodded and said, "I've gone to invite the doctor." It's just that whether the doctor will come is still unknown.
Half an hour later, Han Hua who invited the doctor came back. Seeing Qiu Shi, Han Hua said: "Old lady, there are bandits everywhere outside now, the doctor dare not come." The doctor originally agreed to come with Han Hua's huge promise. But within a few steps of the doctor walking out of the house, he saw a group of thieves who had just returned from robbery. Although the two hid well at the time, they were not discovered by these people. But the doctor is unwilling to come to the Duke's mansion with him. The doctor is also a human being, and he is also afraid of death!
Seeing the blood on Han Hua's body, Qiu said anxiously, "What's wrong with you? Are you injured?" Han Hua is Han Yong's nephew, and he is also loyal to them. The loss of one is also a great loss.
Han Hua shook his head and said, "Madam, this blood belongs to the thief, not mine. Madam, many mansions have been thieves. On my way back, I saw several houses on fire." Going around in the capital city, he must be trying to make a fortune.
Qiu recited Amitabha, and said: "Go and invite the doctor after daybreak!" If the doctor doesn't come, he can't be tied up, and in the current situation, if the doctor is really tied up, the people who are sent out will probably have to folded.
Han Hua belonged to the bold young people: "Old lady, I think it's just right to go out of the city while you're messing around." When order is restored in the capital, it will be difficult to go out of the city.
Han Yong scolded: "The gates of the capital are closed, how can I get out of the city tomorrow?" Without the skill of flying into the sky and escaping from the ground, how can I get out of the city.
Han Hua felt that this was wrong: "Uncle, how do you know that the city gate will not be opened tomorrow?" Maybe the city gate will be opened tomorrow!
Because of Qiu's presence, Han Yong didn't reprimand Han Hua, so he didn't dare to entrust him with important tasks because of his erratic temperament.
Han Jingdong had a fever due to wound infection. The doctor didn't come, so Qiu Shi had to ask the servant girl to use local methods to reduce Han Jingdong's fever. When the day came, Qiu Shi asked Han Hua to invite the doctor.
After diagnosing Han Jingdong's pulse, the doctor shook his head and said, "It hurts a vital part, and it's hard for gods to cure it. Prepare for the funeral!"
Qiu Shi asked, "Is there really no other way?"
The doctor shook his head and said, "I have tried my best." Hua Tuo would not be able to heal such an injury while he was alive.
Qiu Shi sighed, and said to Han Yong, "As soon as the gate of the city is opened, send someone to send a letter to the Duke, and let him come back to deal with the funeral of the Duke." No matter what, this is also my own father. As a son, he must wear sackcloth and filial piety. This is what a son of man should do. Jianye was far in the northwest and couldn't come back. Jianming had to come back in Baoding, otherwise, someone would poke his back in the future.
Han Yong nodded and said, "I'll make arrangements now." The old Duke really knows how to choose a time, and his death will drag the family down. Han Yong only hoped that the rebels would come later. In this way, they also have a chance to escape.
Han Jingdong's coffin had been prepared a long time ago, but the shroud was not prepared, and it would have to be made impromptu. However, in this situation, it is impossible to make a big deal. If you can not lose your share, it will be considered good.
At noon, the Zhou family of Changping Hou Mansion sent an obituary, saying that Mrs. Zhou had passed away. Mrs. Zhou is thirty-three years old this year, which is considered a long life in this era. It's a pity that the old man didn't die, but was frightened and disappeared.
The old Duke Han Jingdong may die at any time, and the Duke's Mansion will be in a terrible situation. At this time, I didn't care about etiquette anymore, so I only let the second steward go,
Others, this meeting has something to do, so they can't leave.
After the second housekeeper came back, he said to Qiu Shi: "Lady, the Zhou family has also suffered thieves. These thieves are so vicious. Not to mention stealing money, they also killed many people. In addition, these thieves also took away There are many young and beautiful maids. Mrs. Zhou's personal maids were also taken away."
In fact, most of the families in the capital were robbed that night. If you are lucky, like the Han family, you will encounter good thieves who only want money and not kill you. If you are unlucky, like the Zhou family, you will encounter a group of thieves who want money, life and people.
Qiu chanted Amitabha again.
The second butler hadn't finished speaking yet. Hearing this Amitabha, he hesitated for a moment, and said, "Old lady, the third old lady's house was also attacked by thieves. There were also more than three hundred thieves in King Jing's mansion last night. These people , ransacked Prince Jing’s mansion.” Not to mention Yuchen’s red makeup when she got married, but Yuchen’s reputation made many people willing to take risks.
Qiu Shi was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "Is the princess okay with the Shizi?" Although he hated Han Jingyan, Yuchen had always had goodwill towards the Duke's Mansion.
The second steward shook his head and said, "I haven't heard any news that the princess and the son were injured." At this time, if there is no news, it is good news.
Qiu Shi felt relieved and said, "That's good."
After returning to the house, Qiu said to Li's mother, "Fortunately, sister-in-law and the others have gone to Fujian." The old lady Qiu passed away, and all the second householders of Qiu's family returned to their hometown Fujian to observe their filial piety. It was a good thing not to return to the capital, and this catastrophe was avoided.
Mama Li was also very emotional, and said, "Who said it wasn't!" In fact, Mama Li thought it would be nice to go back to Fujian! Her natal relatives are all in Fujian. But she couldn't decide this matter, Han Jianming decided to go to the northwest and they naturally had to follow.
When Yuchen heard that the palace was ransacked and many people died, cold sweat broke out all over his back: "Fortunately, the prince arranged it." If they escaped at night, they would run into the hands of those thieves.
The place arranged by King Jing is a very ordinary one-entry house. This house has five rooms and a small courtyard. Of course, this is on the surface. What is unknown is that a basement was dug under the yard, two rooms, figured out. One of them is used for living, and the other is full of food and other materials. If nothing else, you can live on it. Once special circumstances arise, Yuchen can hide in the basement with the child and the maid.
Nanny Gui was also so frightened that her legs were weak: "Yeah, fortunately we came out." If we didn't come out, we don't know what will happen.
The person who came to deliver the letter was the steward's youngest son, Wang Fan: "Princess, Jinyu Alley sent a letter this morning, saying that Mrs. Han was frightened last night and fell ill."
It is definitely impossible for Yuchen to visit Han Jingyan at this time, and said: "Please send some medicinal materials to the housekeeper!"
Wang Fan nodded.
Yuchen thought for a while and asked, "What's going on outside now?" If no one came out to preside over the overall situation, the capital would have to be demolished for a while.
Wang Fan shook his head and said, "I heard that Master Yu has woken up and is now in charge. The situation should be under control soon." This Prime Minister can drive the emperor to death, and he must be able to control the situation in the capital. .
After hearing this, Yuchen felt uneasy: "Wang Fan, don't come here if there is no important matter in the future." Yuchen was worried that Wang Fan's frequent visits would expose their whereabouts.
Wang Fan nodded and said: "Princess, the situation outside is unstable now. It is not appropriate for the concubine to show up during this time. When the prince returns to Beijing, he will come to pick the concubine back to the mansion." ****I am thinking about something that is so heart-wrenching. Usually not afraid, it is better to be more cautious at this time.
Nanny Gui looked at the anxiety on Yuchen's face, and said, "Don't worry, princess, the prince will return safely." If there is something to do with respect to the king, Yuchen will lose his support.
Yuchen smiled bitterly, and said, "I also hope that the prince can come back safely." That's what he said, but Yuchen didn't have much confidence. Besides, the capital is now like this, what can King Jing come back to change?
Nanny Gui said softly, "Princess, you'll be fine." Seeing that Yuchen's expression was still sluggish, Nanny Gui thought about it and said, "Princess, I think if Fourth Aunt's nǎinǎi is in your position, I will be fine." , I will definitely think about how to avoid this chaos safely." Gui Nanny is very clear in her mind, Yuchen has always been thinking about comparing herself with Yuxi. Nanny Gui felt that lifting Yuxi out should cheer up Yuchen.
Yuchen froze for a moment, then fell into deep thought. After a long time, Yuchen said: "I can't go out, I can only wait here." Although she can do some concealment, it is still easy to be discovered, and once she is exposed in front of everyone, the consequences will be disastrous.
Thinking of this, Yuchen touched his face, and said to himself: "In the past, Yuxi said that she was satisfied with her appearance, but I still couldn't understand it. Now I know, in fact, too much appearance is not a good thing .” If she had an average appearance, she wouldn’t be too afraid to hide from others.
Nanny Gui really wanted to slap her mouth, and asked Han Yuxi what she was doing politely.
That night, Han Jingdong died. Immediately, a white sail was hung on the gate of the Duke's Mansion. Too many people died that day, and Han Jingdong's death was like a drop of water falling into the lake, which couldn't even stir up any waves.
Han Yong said with a headache, "Lady, the city gate is still closed, what should I do?" With the city gate closed, the news cannot be sent out, and the Duke cannot come back.
Qiu said: "Don't worry, the gate should be opened tomorrow. So many people died in the capital, and the weather is messed up again. If it is not resolved as soon as possible, it may cause plague and other infectious diseases."
Han Yong felt that Qiu was too optimistic: "Madam, maybe the imperial court will order these corpses to be burned!" After burning, there will be no infectious diseases.
Qiu sighed, and said: "Preserve the old man's body with ice, and we must wait for the Duke of the State to come back for the funeral." Fortunately, the Duke's Mansion has an ice cellar, and there is a lot of ice in it, so it can be preserved no matter what. It has been two or three days, otherwise, I will have a headache.
ps: The third change, this is to add more rewards for 'Dandan'. (to be continued)
