Chief Assistant's Fugitive Wife

Chapter 223 Cholera Rampant
"Haha... No wonder Miss Tang has such a good figure, so she has to be so calculated even to eat a bite of pastry! If I knew you were so strict, I shouldn't have recommended it to you. Since you can't eat jade rabbit cake, then you Order something else!"

Qi Zhi looked at her dotingly, but he didn't think she was busy.

On the contrary, I think she is special and rigorous.

It's just his habitual movement of looking Tang Miaoyan's figure up and down while talking.

It still made the carefree Tang Miaoyan blush slightly.

"Don't eat, listen to books."

Why does this kid become more and more unscrupulous the more he gets in touch with him?

Tang Miaoyan muttered secretly in her heart.

He turned around uncomfortably, deliberately turning his back to Qi Zhi.

Qi Zhi didn't care, and looked at her back with a smile, equally affectionate and focused.

Qi Yue looked at the uproar at the two of them's children's house, and a doting smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

Since the younger brother liked Tang Miaoyan so much, why would he have to build a bridge for them, so as not to waste the time wasted in leaving government affairs and going out to play this trip.

"Talk about the plague in Jixiang Mansion! There are dead bodies everywhere, it's too horrible to look at!"

Mr. Storyteller finally talked about the part Tang Miaoyan needed. Accompanied by everyone's silent mourning and nervousness, he clapped his eyes and continued with a clatter:
"This plague has spread widely, and it has spread rapidly since the earthquake. All infected people have unbearable abdominal pain, and their stools are like washing rice. The entire Jixiang Mansion is in a stinking atmosphere. I heard that the epidemic is so serious , Even if the infected person does not eat, diarrhea and severe pain are still unavoidable. Many people were so painful that they couldn't even survive the night, and died tragically outside their homes."

"Why is it at the door of the house?"

I didn't know who it was downstairs, and suddenly yelled.

The storyteller immediately clapped his eyes again, and replied:
"That's a good question! Why did you die tragically at the door of your house? Because the latrine at home is not enough, and someone needs to go out to the latrine! As a result, I was exhausted running back and forth, so I couldn't enter the house, so I died at the door. .”

Everyone sighed when they heard it.

Tang Miaoyan suddenly realized.

If you don't eat anymore, you will continue to have diarrhea, washing rice watery feces.

The disease peaks in summer and can cause diarrhea, dehydration, and even death within hours.

Doesn't that mean cholera?
Although this disease is not common in modern times, it also occurs occasionally.

Cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae, usually serotype O1, which is found in water, and the most common cause of infection is the consumption of water contaminated with feces from sick people.

No wonder the plague in Auspicious Mansion has not been brought under control for so long.

It turns out that so many patients died outside, and no one cares about them.

It is rainy in summer, and the resolution that no one cleans up in time is washed into the river ditch.

Then drink it by healthy people.

And so on.

The people in Jixiang Mansion are immortal, and the cholera cannot be controlled.

"No! I must go to see the emperor immediately."

Tang Miaoyan suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem and stood up abruptly.

Instead, Qi Yue and Qi Zhi at the same table were taken aback.

"What are you going to do?"

Qi Zhi was a little dazed, thinking that he was hallucinating because he was concentrating on listening to Mr. Shu's story.

But that's not right either!
The storyteller is telling the truth now, not some drama.

Why did Tang Miaoyan play tricks all of a sudden, she was going to see the emperor?
And isn't he just sitting here?
Didn't she already see it?

Where should I go now?

"Uh... no. What I mean is, I have something urgent to go out. I'm going to meet a friend, and I'll be back in about an hour or two. Can I borrow your carriage? I won't leave the capital."

Tang Miaoyan's words were obviously replying to Qi Zhi, but her eyes were on Qi Yue.

After all, it was Qi Yue who kidnapped her and decided her freedom.

She doesn't want to tear herself apart with Qi Yue yet.

And the person she was looking for was Dongfang Qin.

Now the only person who can help her write a letter to the emperor is Dongfang Qin from Jingzhao Mansion.

Although he can't meet the new emperor directly, he can tell Liu Meiwei to know, and it's the same for Liu Meiwei to play.

Her purpose was to save the common people, and Tang Miaoyan didn't care at all as to who deserved the credit.

Besides, she was going to see Dongfang Qin to tell him he was safe.

That day at the Guo State Mansion, she was taken away by Qi Yue's people.

Although Dongfang Qin was not in a hurry, she must have gone in to find her.

So this can be regarded as Tang Miaoyan's fulfillment of her promise and her gratitude to Dongfang Qin.

Qi Yue didn't speak when he heard the words, but just looked at each other with his younger brother Qi Zhi.

They all saw in each other's eyes that they really heard right.

What Tang Miaoyan said at the beginning was that she was going to find the emperor.

Qi Zhi subconsciously covered his belt.

His little vest was well worn, it wasn't exposed at all!

He also didn't know why Tang Miaoyan suddenly mentioned the emperor.

Qi Yue pursed his lips, nodded and said:
"Yes. But it's not safe for you to walk on the street as a woman. You two, follow and protect Miss Tang."

He ordered that since the second brother accidentally poured tea on him, two guards appeared behind him to follow Tang Miaoyan.

No matter where Tang Miaoyan was going, he had to know.

The most important thing is that he must take care of Tang Miaoyan and completely cure Qi Zhi's illness.

Tang Miaoyan gave him a speechless glance, but right now, she has no choice but to choose.

It will take a few days to recover.

In the past few days, everyone in Jixiang Mansion is enough to die.

She couldn't afford to wait for a moment.

So there was a little tail behind her, but she didn't care.

She walked through the crowd slowly, ran downstairs, and went straight to the place where the carriage was parked in the backyard.

"Brother, why did you really let her go? I only have one or two hours outside in the afternoon, and I will be going back to the palace soon."

Qi Zhi pouted the corners of his lips dissatisfied, acting coquettish and cute.

It almost melted Qi Yue's heart.

"The person who should see has already seen it, and it is meaningless for her to stay. What's more, if you don't let her go, her heart has already gone. Xiaozhi, you have to remember. I would rather be careful and not keep anyone, than Leave people indifferent.

"Besides, you're not curious. Why did she suddenly stand up nervously while listening to the book?" Don't be impatient, you can only walk into her heart if you know her better.What's more, she said that she could walk for an hour or two, but she might not be able to walk.My brother has other plans! "

Qi Yue raised his hand and patted his younger brother's shoulder, the fox's eyes were full of calculations.

Obviously Tang Miaoyan was not taken seriously at all.

Seeing that he was so confident, Qi Zhi finally became happy again.

He picked up a piece of jade rabbit cake, ate it with tea, and sighed in disgust:

"Stop eating! You will gain weight."
