The favorite concubine of the system is in power

Chapter 129

Xiao Wanwan was awakened by the commotion outside.

She put on her coat and pushed open the door, only to see the servants of Fu Ling's family hurrying through the courtyard, holding copper basins in their hands, which were filled with dark liquid, still bubbling hot steam.

Then he heard Imperial Physician Yuan's voice: "Be sure to wipe your body with lotion frequently!"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Wanwan walked out of the room, and at this moment the door of the opposite room was also opened. Emperor Jiawen was dressed neatly. When he saw Xiao Wanwan, he strode over: "Come in."

Xiao Wanwan pursed her lips, her expression unnatural, avoiding Emperor Jiawen's sight, Emperor Jiawen held her waist, walked into the room, and told the servants: "Bring the copper basin in my room .”

The servant said yes, and quickly brought the things. Emperor Jiawen twisted the veil himself, and was about to help Xiao Wanwan wipe his face. Xiao Wanwan took a step back without any trace: "I will do it myself."

Emperor Jiawen said: "Bubble Hands, someone will come and smoke your house with herbs in a while, you will stay in my house today and don't go anywhere."

"What's going on here?"

Emperor Jiawen looked worried: "It's an epidemic."

When the officers and soldiers of the yamen went out to patrol today, they found that the medicine shops in Lincheng were all crowded with people. After some inspection, they all had vomiting and diarrhea, and black spots appeared on their bodies.

This discovery was no small matter, and now that the emperor was in Lincheng, the government order quickly reported this moment, and Imperial Physician Yuan also went out with the officers and soldiers to check the conditions of the patients on the street.

"The sick people all live near the Linhe River," Imperial Physician Yuan said. "All of their daily water comes from the Linhe River. It must be that the man tampered with the river yesterday, so..."

Xu Zhang cursed and said: "That guy is really not a thing! I have to drag a whole city into the water when I am sick! I just stabbed him with a sword yesterday. This way of death is too cheap for him!"

Xiao Wanwan asked: "Since this is the case, has Imperial Physician Yuan found a solution to this disease?"

Imperial Physician Yuan shook his head and sighed: "The specific method is still being studied, and at present we can only rely on the most common method to restrain it."

This epidemic became the fuse of firecrackers, completely igniting the panic and resentment in the hearts of the people. The medicinal materials bought from the pharmacy with great efforts did not have any effect on the epidemic. Physician Yuan was dizzy every day. , The mansion is also filled with the dizzy smell of medicine all day long.

The wheels of the carriage made a rumbling sound, Emperor Jiawen lifted the curtain, and saw people lying or sitting everywhere on the side of the road, their complexions were sallow, their eye sockets sunken, their faces seemed to be covered with a thin layer of leather paper, black spots even spread When it reached the neck, the whole body exuded a dull and dead air.

Concubine Hui was holding a small stove in her hand, which contained medicinal incense carefully prepared by Imperial Physician Yuan, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty..."

A group of young children ran past the carriage, thinking: "When Jiawen ascended the throne, he was furious. The disease and famine are all right. My father and mother are dead, and I will be blessed if I change the emperor..."

Xu Zhang, who was driving outside, shouted, "Stop!"

Several children looked back at him.

Xu Zhang asked with a fierce face: "Which bad guy taught you these words?"

The children looked at me and I looked at you, but they didn't speak.

Emperor Jiawen's voice came from inside: "Xu Zhang, go back."
