The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool

   Chapter 544 The Empress Dowager Enters the City (Three Thousand Words Chapter)

   "Xiang Gong, are you comfortable?"

"lighter."

   "Oh, so what?"

"Can."

  hs~ Ji Luo heard such a conversation as soon as he arrived at the door of the couple's room.

   Ji Luo gasped, her daughter wanted to be so hot!

   As he was about to leave quietly, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw Xuanyuan Ce groping over with a stick.

  Da da da ~ The sound of the stick hitting the ground is particularly clear.

   Ji Luo's eyelids twitched, and he quickly walked over, grabbing Xuanyuan Ce's shirt and leaving.

  Xuanyuance was dragged and staggered: "Ah, A Luo? Didn't you go to deliver the medicinal wine to that stinky boy? Why did you come out so quickly?"

   "I said that stinky boy is too weak, not as good as our daughter..."

   Ji Luo: "Shut up."

   If she quarrels with her grandson, she will never end with this person.

  Thinking like this, her steps quickened a bit.

  Xuanyuan Policy:  …

   By the time of dinner, the husband and wife did not come out.

   Xuanyuance ordered: "Mo Yuan, go and call Jiajia for dinner."

   Ji Luo coughed lightly: "No need to go, I will heat the food in the kitchen and eat it when they wake up."

   "How do you know they are asleep? What if they are reading in the room?"

   Counting the time, it’s just getting dark now.

   Ji Luo stiffened: "Eat your food, why do you talk so much."

  How did she know...of course...

   Ji Luo was completely confused, but she didn't know that the husband and wife were sleeping well, but Shen Yijia saw that Song Jingchen was all dark and blue, and she felt bad that he had not been able to rest well in the past few days, so she forced him to sleep with her.

At night, a thin black figure quietly left the inner city camp after everyone had rested. He limped into a small alley in the south of the city, walked to the door of the third house, and reached out his hand to knock. the door in front of you.

   After a while, the courtyard door opened. A middle-aged man showed his head and recognized who it was. His expression changed and he hurriedly pulled the person into the courtyard. He looked around anxiously to make sure that no one was following before closing the courtyard door.

   "Come to me at this time, are you dying?" The middle-aged man followed the thin man into the room and asked angrily.

   By the oil lamp in the room, the face of the emaciated man was also revealed, who was Jiaquan who had just received twenty sticks in the daytime.

  Jiaquan carefully sat down on the stool, the pain on his **** made him jump up in place: "Don't worry, with those finances here, my suspicions have been cleared."

   The middle-aged man frowned and asked, "Are you injured?"

   "After twenty sticks, I can't die." Jiaquan waved his hand indifferently.

   "Are things ready?" he asked.

  The middle-aged man glanced at him, took the shovel in the corner and walked under a tree in the courtyard to dig. After a while, he dug out a wooden box.

   He used his sleeve to float the dirt off it and put the box on the table in the main room.

   "It's all here. They take these dirty things too seriously. They have to burn them before they can leave the quarantine area. They also arranged for people to check, so it's not easy to bring them out."

   When the middle-aged man spoke, Jiaquan had already started to open the box, only to see two handkerchiefs covered with pus and blood inside. As soon as he opened it, the stench wafted out of it.

  A took a look and closed the box: "Just throw it into the well, it should be enough."

The middle-aged man nodded: "If everyone is infected with the plague, then the woman will be fine, and everyone will definitely ask her to bled to save people again. King Jing'an and the third prince agree that it's okay, if they insist on protecting the city, there will be chaos in the city. , when the time comes, it can drag on for some time.”

   He said he brought an empty box and put a handkerchief in it.

   handed one of the boxes to Jia Quandao: "I threw it into the well of the pharmacy, you go back to the inner city camp."

"it is good."

  A took over the box, and the two discussed again to prepare to split up. They didn't want to leave the yard before a strong breath came towards them.

   Without waiting for them to respond, he only felt a pain in his neck and completely lost consciousness.

   When the two woke up again, they were already in a big prison. Xuanyuan Ziming and Song Jingchen were standing outside the cell, looking at them coldly.

  …

   On the first day of May, the entire Fengcheng was shrouded in a dense rain curtain.

  In the safe area outside the city, Eunuch Wu had just finished reading Xuanyuan Ziming's letter to Xuanyuan Qi early in the morning, when Eunuch Yu was wet and ran in anxiously.

   "Your Majesty, it's not good, the Empress Dowager suddenly developed a high fever..."

   "What?" Xuanyuan Qi was shocked, but it didn't mean that the father-in-law had finished speaking and stood up and went to the courtyard where the Queen Mother Zhou lived.

   Eunuch Wu walked to the door and saw that Xuanyuan Qi had rushed into the rain curtain, and said anxiously, "Your Majesty, it's still raining outside..."

   As he said that, he hurriedly grabbed an umbrella from the little **** beside him and chased after him.

   Xuanyuan Qi rushed to the yard where the Queen Mother of Zhou lived, and was about to enter when a woman wearing a veil and plain clothes came out and stopped him: "Your Majesty, you can't go in."

   "Concubine Wan?" Xuanyuan Qi had a bad feeling in his heart.

  Blessed Concubine Wan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has already checked the mother's pulse. It was diagnosed that the mother had the plague. You are going in now. What if you get infected?"

   Xuanyuan Qi staggered: "Plague? How could it be a plague? How come the mother is so good..."

  Thinking of something, Xuanyuan Qi stopped abruptly.

The people who serve Queen Mother Zhou have always been careful. He also specially arranged for the imperial doctor to be available at any time. Not only does she have to ask the Queen Mother Zhou for a Ping An pulse every day, but even those who serve here will have to check it sooner or later. Change it immediately.

  The only thing that can bring Queen Mother Zhou into contact with the source of the disease is the letter sent from the city...

   "Your Majesty?"

   Concubine Wan's voice called him back to God.

   "What did you just say?" Xuanyuan Qi asked.

   "The Empress Dowager asked her concubine to tell Her Majesty that she has the plague now, and she might infect others. Your Majesty will arrange and send her back to Fengcheng."

   "No, the plague is rampant in the city, how can I send my mother in." Xuanyuan Qi refused without thinking.

   Concubine Wan wanted to say something, the inner door opened, and Mother Gao walked out with Queen Mother Zhou.

   "Queen Mother."

"Okay, just stand there." Empress Dowager Zhou spoke weakly, and she sat down on the upper chair with the help of Mammy Gao, and said angrily, "Aijia knows that Concubine Wan can't say anything about you. "

She sighed: "Emperor, have you ever thought about it, this plague was finally controlled in Fengcheng, if the Ai family was tired and everyone got sick, and even accidentally spread to other places, how would you explain to the people? What face will Aijia have to meet the late emperor after a hundred years?"

   Xuanyuan Qi said: "I can have someone encircle this yard. Queen Mother, don't you want to see Ye Yatou? I have already sent someone to pick it up, and then let her..."

   "No need, that girl may have caught the plague too."

   She would say that, apparently guessing where the source of her disease came from.

   In fact, it is not difficult to guess. After all, for so many days, this safe area has not said that anyone has been infected with the plague. It must not appear out of thin air...

   I just don’t know whether the letter with the plague was intentional or unintentional.

   At this moment, the person Xuanyuan Qi sent to pick up Xuanyuan Ye also came back. Just as the Queen Mother Zhou said, Xuanyuan Ye started to have a high fever early this morning.

   Since he was infected with the plague, he naturally couldn’t pick it up again.

   Xuanyuan Qi wanted to persuade again: "Mother..."

   Once you enter Fengcheng, unless the plague is cured, otherwise...

   Empress Dowager Zhou waved her hand and said, "No need to say more, let someone prepare the frame."

   "Your Majesty, the concubine is willing to accompany the Queen Mother." Concubine Wan spoke suddenly.

   "Concubine Wan, you..."

   "The son of the concubine is inside, and the concubine stays here all day long. It is better to accompany the mother and go back together. Besides taking care of the mother, you can also do filial piety for Your Majesty."

   Xuanyuan Qi was unable to beat the Queen Mother Zhou, but had no choice but to agree.

   At the urging of the Queen Mother Zhou, the frame was immediately prepared, including Mammy Gao and Eunuch Yu, whoever served by the Queen Mother Zhou also followed.

   Xuanyuan Qi personally sent the Queen Mother Zhou to the east gate, watching the frame slowly enter Fengcheng, the gate was closed again, and a feeling of powerlessness rose in his heart.

  What if he is an emperor, in the face of the plague, he can't do anything.

   "Your Majesty, the empress dowager has her own celestial appearance, and she will be fine."

   "Hopefully." Xuanyuan Qi withdrew his gaze, turned and got into the carriage.

   Halfway through the carriage, he suddenly opened his eyes: "I remember yesterday's letter from Ming'er saying that the girl was rumored to be a saint in the city. Blood can cure the plague?"

   Eunuch Wu was startled: "Your Majesty, do you think... but the lord will not agree."

   asked him to say that this hole cannot be opened. Once it is opened, Mrs. Song's blood will be useless. If it can really cure the plague, how can the people let her go?

   How could Xuanyuan Qi not think of this? Sighing: "Do you think everything is too coincidental?"

   "The old slave is ignorant."

   Xuanyuan Qi pressed his eyebrows and said concisely: "My mother is infected with the plague, and I will do everything to cure her."

   Eunuch Wu is not stupid. After being reminded by him, he immediately reacted and couldn't believe it: "Your Majesty means that the county master she..."

  If the county master really did it on purpose, then she just wanted to use a knife to kill, and it was His Majesty's knife!

   Not only that, but also betting on the Queen Mother's life...

   The Queen Mother spoiled her like that, how could she do it?

   This is also very frustrating!

   Xuanyuan Qi's eyes flashed a dark light: "When you go back, let the imperial doctor check the letter carefully."

"Yes."

   However, when Eunuch Wu went to look for it, he was told that all the letters sent by Xuanyuan Ye had been taken away by the Queen Mother.

   "The Empress Dowager guessed that Her Majesty would go to look for those letters, so she specially asked people to leave them." Eunuch Wu replied.

   Xuanyuan Qi was stunned for a moment, then frowned, "I'm afraid my mother is also suspicious."

   Take away the evidence, I don't know if it is to cover up Xuanyuan Ye or something else.

   On the other side, Eunuch Yu looked at the box that Empress Dowager Zhou put aside, hesitating for a while, and said, "Empress Dowager, I am afraid that these letters are carrying an epidemic, so the old slave should burn them."
