Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 146

However, extreme joy begets sorrow.

Before Dong Cheng could finish his sentence, he saw his tall and straight body swaying leisurely, and his footsteps were weak, so he couldn't help supporting the desk.

"Father-in-law!"

"grown ups!"

Everyone, including Zhu Xiuyuan, screamed and stood up with shocked expressions on their faces.

In Zhu Xiuyuan's heart, he instantly remembered Dong Shuyu's earnest instructions to him, asking him to take good care of her father.

If something goes wrong with Dong Cheng and Zhu Xiuyuan goes back, how should he face the Dong sisters?
"It's okay, I'm okay..."

Dong Cheng held the desk with both hands and tried his best to put on a smile on his face.

I want to comfort the excited people.

However, Dong Cheng suddenly felt dizzy, his whole body and limbs felt exhausted, and his scalp was numb.

Then his vision went dark and he lost consciousness.

"Father-in-law!"

Zhu Xiuyuan rushed up with a quick step and helped Dong Cheng, who was rushing toward the desk, with a horrified look on his face.

Zhu Xiuyuan has been worried about Dong Cheng's health for the past few days.

But all kinds of affairs are inseparable from Dong Cheng, the backbone.

He has been working under a high load and has stayed up several all-nighters...

At this last moment, when the plague is about to be defeated, will Dong Cheng finally collapse? !
"grown ups!"

"grown ups!"

The crowd panicked.

"Quick, go and ask for Doctor Zhang!"

……

After a while of panic.

The recorder is in a small side room next to the room where people were signed to join the army.

Dong Cheng lay quietly on a simple bed.

Doctor Zhang sat in front of the bed, put his fingers on Dong Cheng's wrist, closed his eyes and took his pulse.

After the death of Divine Doctor Zhang, Zhu Xiuyuan and the other five military officers, as well as the leaders of the three squadrons of government officials, were all present.

The palace steward also came, standing behind the crowd and watching silently.

Although there were many people in this small penthouse, it was very quiet.

No sound could be heard except for breathing.

No one wanted to disturb Dr. Zhang's diagnosis of Dong Cheng's pulse.

After a long time.

Doctor Zhang's eyes suddenly opened.

Then he jumped up from the stool, and the hand checking the pulse left Dong Cheng's wrist.

Zhu Xiuyuan, who had been staring at Miracle Doctor Zhang closely, felt his heart skip a beat when he saw his actions.

"Miracle doctor, how is my father-in-law doing?"

Zhu Xiuyuan asked immediately.

I pray in my heart that this will not be the result.

Doctor Zhang jumped up from the stool, opened his arms, stopped everyone behind him, and stepped back slowly, with a serious and solemn expression.

It was as if Dong Cheng was a time bomb that would explode at any time.

He even retreated very lightly...

Zhu Xiuyuan felt more and more unhappy, and asked again: "Miracle doctor, what happened to my father-in-law?"

Doctor Zhang took several steps back, then stopped, turned his head and glanced at Zhu Xiuyuan, with a solemn expression on his face: "Master Dong...he...is infected with the plague!"

"what!"

Everyone was shocked, their eyes were like copper bells, their mouths were wide open, their faces were full of disbelief.

……

Dong Mansion.

Buddhist hall.

"Eldest Miss, Second Miss, it's not good, it's not good..."

Haruyuki came trotting all the way.

Holding the hem of the skirt with both hands, he walked quickly and hurriedly, running and shouting all the way.

There was a sense of extreme shock, fear and terror in her screams.

It was as if the sky was falling.In front of the Buddha statue, on the futon, two sisters Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen were kneeling upright.

He closed his eyes and clasped his hands together.

Read scriptures devoutly.

Haruyuki's frightened scream suddenly reached the ears of the two sisters. The two sisters suddenly felt uneasy. They both opened their eyes and looked sideways behind them.

"Haruyuki, why are you so panicked?"

"Eldest Miss, Second Miss..."

After Chunxue ran into the Buddhist hall, she suddenly fell in front of Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen.

He said with a tearful voice: "Master, he... Master, he... is infected with the plague!"

boom!
Like a thunderbolt from the blue, it exploded in the minds of the two Dong sisters.

Dong Shuyu felt dizzy, and her thin body suddenly went limp. In her daze, she heard Chunxue and her sister Zhen'er pulling her and shouting, and then lost consciousness.

……

yamen.

The small penthouse where Dong Cheng is located has been isolated.

This is a small isolation area set up for Dong Cheng alone.

Dong Cheng's status was unusual, so it was naturally impossible to send him behind the City God's Temple.

Zhu Xiuyuan refused, and the other five Cao Cao were also unwilling to join the army.

Two women who knew how to care for people infected with the plague were transferred to take care of Dong Cheng alone.

This not only prevents Dong Cheng's condition from worsening, but also prevents Dong Cheng from spreading the plague to others.

After several days of practice, these two women are qualified for this job.

The recorder next to the small ear room is in the room where he joined the army and signed a contract.

Zhu Xiuyuan, the steward of the palace, the military officers, and the leaders of the three squadrons of government officials gathered together.

"How did Mr. Dong catch the plague?" the palace steward asked curiously.

"Maybe last night, we went to the isolation area behind the Chenghuang Temple to visit patients infected with the plague..."

"Sir, you have not rested for several days. You have been working hard all day long and have not gotten a good rest. So your 'immunity' must be insufficient. You are wandering around the quarantine area again..."

"Hey, it's too late to say anything now. We can only wait for Miracle Doctor Zhang to prepare a good prescription that can cure the plague as soon as possible and give it to adults."

"Hey……"

"Zhu Canjun's method of preventing and controlling the plague is certainly the most important contribution, but if there is no arrangement from adults, I am afraid we will not be spared. Your contribution should not be inferior to Zhu Canjun!"

"We must cure you!"

"Now we have almost suppressed the spread of the plague, but in the future, we still have a lot of things to do. Not to mention the Governor... they still need you..."

"Wish you to join the army, the eldest lady of the Dong family and Mrs. Ling are here!" At this time, a government servant came in to announce.

After hearing this, everyone present stopped talking and looked at Zhu Xiuyuan.

Zhu Xiuyuan arched his head and said: "Steward, ladies and gentlemen, please come back when you go."

"I wish you could join the army, please feel free to do so!"

Zhu Xiuyuan nodded, left the signing room, and quickly came to the gate of the Yamen.

Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen just got off the carriage.

The two sisters supported each other, looking pitifully towards Zhu Xiuyuan.

"Shuyu, lady, why are you here?"

Zhu Xiuyuan hurried forward to greet him.

If you look closely, you can see that the eyes of both women are red, and they have obviously shed tears.

To this day, there is still a trace of crystal in the corner of the eye, twinkling with light.

"Let's come see daddy." Dong Shuyu's voice was obviously different from the past, and it was a little hoarse.

"Husband, where is daddy?" Dong Shuzhen was about to cry.

Zhu Xiuyuan did not dare to look into the eyes of Dong Shuyu and Dong Shuzhen.

I always feel like I have failed them.

Finally he sighed and nodded: "Come with me, I will take you in."

A group of three people entered the Yamen.

All the way to the small wing next to the room where people were recorded and signed to join the army.

In order to avoid being infected, Dong Shuyu, Dong Shuzhen, and Zhu Xiuyuan all wore a "mask" before entering the small ear room.

He was also told not to touch the sick, lest he catch the plague.
