Chapter 202 The Crown Prince is Infected with Plague
"What if she doesn't want to be with you..." An Qiao asked with her head down.
"Whether she is willing to be with me or not, these are what I should do." Tong Yiyi's voice was frank, without any trace of guilt.
An Qiao smiled and said, "She will definitely get better."
The two smiled at each other in the night. After being busy for most of the night, it was already dawn.
Qi Tao didn't sleep either. As soon as she closed her eyes, she felt that the Autumnal Equinox was not going well and she would struggle again.
Touch the head of the Autumnal Equinox.
I don’t know if it’s really going to work, or if it’s just the result of everyone’s hard work all night.
When the sky began to turn pale, the fever subsided.
Qi Tao was crying with joy, "You silly girl, I almost thought..."
Qiufen also responded weakly, "It's not that easy, you're dreaming."
The voice was weak and small, like that of a kitten just born.
An Qiao and Tong Yiyi naturally heard the noise as well. They all turned over and saw the scene inside. They couldn't help but laugh.
so far so good.
"Qiufen, are you okay? I'll go get you some porridge." Tong Yiyi's originally dark eyes seemed to become clear in an instant, and he stood up and went to serve the porridge.
But maybe because I squatted for too long, I felt dizzy for a moment.
The staggering scared An Qiao who was standing beside him, "Are you okay? Don't get sick all over again. I can't take care of you anymore."
The originally suppressed emotions suddenly disappeared, and everyone smiled in tacit understanding.
Lian Qiufen's face turned pale and she wanted to get up to look, but Qitao held her down.
"Don't move, you're still weak. If I take care of you again, I'll be dead." Qi Tao joked.
Qiufen lay down obediently, and Anqiao also breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the fever was gone.
An Qiao also went downstairs. Tong Yiyi was the most reckless kid in this matter, but if you asked him to be more careful, he would not be able to be careful.
"Boil the medicine, you need to drink it again." An Qiao looked at Tong Yiyi who was in a panic.
Most people were still asleep at this time. They were exhausted after a whole night. An Qiao didn't plan to wake them up now, otherwise their immunity would be getting lower and lower, which would be bad for everyone.
Tong Yiyi turned around and went to light the fire. An Qiao couldn't help laughing, "How come he is so calm and composed on weekdays when he encounters the Autumnal Equinox?"
Tong Yiyi touched her head embarrassedly, "I was too anxious, young lady. I was afraid that she would lose her life because of me."
An Qiao always thought so.
In fact, after she prepared the medicine last night, she was still not very confident, so she could only try it out. Unexpectedly, it actually worked.
The two of them brought up the porridge and medicine together.
Just after drinking the medicine, Tong Yiyi saw Qiufen frowning, and took out a piece of candied fruit from one of his pockets and put it into Qiufen's mouth, "It's delicious, it won't be bitter after you eat it."
Qiufen then slowly relaxed his brows. Anqiao couldn't bear it anymore and coughed twice.
The two of them calmed down a bit and drank the porridge. An Qiao reminded them, "This quilt is soaked with sweat. Change it and have a good sleep. It will be harder to recover if you don't sleep. I'll wake you up in the afternoon to eat and take medicine."
Qiufen nodded obediently and was very well behaved.
But Tong Yiyi was so distressed that she took three steps forward and looked back one step.
An Qiao shook her head. These two were so affectionate and it looked like good things were about to happen.
The turmoil in the Kyoto restaurant has passed for the time being, but the situation outside is getting worse day by day.
It was only the end of spring, but the sun was so hot that it seemed like it was going to burn a hole here. People walking on the road felt extremely thirsty, and many people fainted from heatstroke in late spring.
Of course, most people still don’t want to go out because of the plague.
The smell of mugwort is everywhere in the city, but it seems to have little effect.
There are still many families burying their deceased every day. Basically, there are white lanterns everywhere. In this spring season, many people have passed away.
There are always long queues at the drugstore, which always seem to have no end.
The sounds of coughing and sneezing echoed throughout Kyoto Prefecture.
The day before yesterday, Gu Qingyun had brought the masks to the emperor, but if this thing was distributed for free to everyone, it would cost a considerable amount of money.
Also, no one has proven that it actually works.
So the palace only made dozens of them for use by ministers and people in the palace.
Gu Qingyun taught the embroiderers in detail how to make it. It was actually not difficult and everyone could learn it at a glance.
The plague still spread to the palace.
At first, a young eunuch had a fever all over his body, and later all the eunuchs living with him were infected with the plague.
Originally, anyone who got sick in the palace would be executed or isolated. When the person really died, they would be burned and thrown directly into a mass grave.
But the plague is different from other diseases. It is extremely contagious, and most people will not die from it. They will live half-dead and then spread the disease to more people.
It's okay if it's just one or two, but when there are more and more people, it's hard to explain and we can only find someone to treat it. It's not easy to cure and it's not easy to control.
Soon, the entire palace fell into panic.
It was at this time that the imperial physician discovered the great effectiveness of the mask.
People who wore masks were obviously not seriously ill, or were not infected at all.
The emperor was extremely shocked. Originally, it was said that it was made by a cook, and he didn't believe it would be of much use.
But the fact is that it is really useful.
No one is used to such masks. Some concubines even feel that they cover their faces and refuse to wear them.
As more and more people are infected, people who wear masks are increasingly grateful that they don't care about their appearance.
The emperor stayed in the Qinzheng Hall all day and did not go out. The outside was full of viruses, and who would dare to let him go out again?
We eat and sleep in the same palace, which is so boring and makes us feel anxious all the time.
The little prince is still young. If I were gone, what would happen to the world?
On this day, despite all the precautions, the little prince still fell ill.
The little child became wrinkled because of illness. The child who was lively and energetic a few days ago is now dying.
Everyone in the palace was worried about this matter.
There is only one boy like this in the palace, and he is the legitimate son, so no one dares to treat him carelessly.
But this legitimate son has been plagued by many misfortunes. He just recovered from a serious illness last year and now he has been infected with the plague.
His body was already weak, and now it was wrinkled and lifeless.
As Kyoto Prefecture's condition became increasingly serious, An Qiao handed the bag of medicine and prescription to Gu Qingyun.
"This is the medicine that Qiufeng, a little girl in our yard, drank when she was infected with the plague a few days ago. The dosage is very large. The boy in the medicine shop said that this is the amount to feed cows. But I really had no choice that day. I remembered a film I had seen before and used it on Qiufeng. Who would have thought that it would work so well."
