Chapter 146: Xiao Yunqi contracted typhoid fever]
After hearing this, Chen Fenghe nodded with a smile and said, "Their symptoms are quite serious and they need another injection today. However, being able to eat is a good sign."
Han Dayan was extremely happy when he heard this and said, "Really? Madam Shen's medical skills are really great! Also, I sent people to the grain store and pharmacy in the city early this morning to buy food and herbs, and they actually bought them all! Moreover, the prices are also normal prices. It seems that God is blessing us and calling everyone's fortune to change."
Chen Fenghe still had a smile on her face, and she didn't reveal that all this was her masterpiece. She only said: "I guess God has opened his eyes. Let's give the injection to yesterday's patient first..."
Having said that, she, Xiao Yunshuo and Yuan Xu started to get busy.
The patients trapped in the abandoned house in the west of the city felt relieved to see that even the most seriously ill patients were gradually getting better. Under the leadership of Han Dayan, they made wood ash masks, took care of each other, and waited patiently for the medicine from Xiao Yunshuo to be cultivated.
While the plague in the west of the city was gradually brought under control and improved, typhoid fever suddenly broke out in the government office!
Lord Zhu and the officials who had previously argued with Han Dayan fell ill one after another with high fever!
Master Zhu was terrified. How did he get infected?
Clearly… he immediately rushed any patient with a fever to the west of the city! How could he still be infected?!
Because Chen Fenghe had previously fed them a pill that could cause temporary amnesia, they had forgotten about the Japanese man Dayan coming to the yamen to seek help from the imperial physician, and were puzzled as to why.
"Hurry! Go get a doctor! Cough cough cough cough!" Lord Zhu shouted weakly while lying on the bed.
Unfortunately, when the doctors in Qizhou City heard that they had to go to treat the prefect for typhoid fever, they all ran away with their families at night.
What a joke! The palace doctors came and two doctors couldn't cure typhoid fever. Asking them to treat it is like asking them to die!
Xiao Yunqi, who was on his way back to Beijing, was not in a much better condition. His men, including two imperial physicians, had contracted typhoid fever and were stranded half-dead in the post station.
Xiao Yunqi was so upset that he wanted to kill someone. Just when he was in despair, his men came in and reported, "Your Highness, there are a man and a woman outside who claim to have medicine to cure typhoid fever. Should we let them in?"
Xiao Yunqi was desperate and immediately said, "Really? Quick! Let them in!"
The people who came in were Jiang Xueruo and the man who had previously attempted to steal the medicine that Jiang Guizhou brought back.
It turned out that this man was not Mr. Zhu's son, but just a businessman who ran a pharmacy at home. His name was Xu Liang.
He was keenly aware that the typhoid medicine brought by Chen Fenghe could make a lot of money. If he could get it, he could make enough money to last him several lifetimes!
Therefore, he did not run far that night, but stayed nearby. Eventually, he found Jiang Xueruo again and persuaded her with sweet words.
Jiang Xueruo also coveted the rich life that Xu Liang described to her, wearing luxurious clothes, having exquisite gold and silver hairpins and jewelry, and having maids to serve her... Therefore, she eventually abandoned her father and brother, stole the jar of medicine, and ran away with Xu Liang.
It was also a coincidence that Xu Liang heard that Prince Jin had caught a cold in the post station, so he immediately ran over with the jar of medicine.
Xiao Yunqi frowned as he looked at the water-like medicine in the jar and asked coldly, "Is this the medicine you said can cure typhoid fever?"
Xu Liang knelt down tremblingly and said, "I dare not lie. It is this medicine. As long as I use this instrument to inject the medicine into the body, the disease will be cured soon!"
As he spoke, he took out the bamboo syringe that Shen Fenghe had left behind.
This was also the first time Xiao Yunqi had seen such a thing, and his face was full of doubt.
However, he had no other choice now, so he said, "In that case, why don't you quickly heal me!"
When Xu Liang heard this, he was overjoyed. He quickly crawled over and took out a rope.
Xiao Yunqi's men saw this, pulled out their swords with a swish, and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Xu Liang turned pale with fear and kowtowed, begging for mercy: "Sir, please forgive me! This... this rope needs to be tied around His Royal Highness Prince Jin's arm so that the medicine can be injected into his body..."
He had not seen Chen Fenghe and Xiao Yunshuo giving injections to Jiang Guizhou and Old Man Jiang. He had heard all this from Jiang Xueruo.
In order to show his courtesy, he even tried it on pigs several times, for fear that he would offend the King of Jin and not only gain no benefits, but also lose his life!
Xiao Yunqi was also desperate and tried every possible means. He waved his hand and said, "Go ahead! If you can really cure the typhoid fever, I will reward you handsomely. If not, hmph!"
Xu Liang's hands trembled with fear, and he couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If this medicine doesn't work...
No, it will never be useless!
He saw with his own eyes that Jiang Xueruo's brother and father were dying that night, but their fever subsided the next day...
Xu Liang didn't even dare to raise his head. He quickly tied a rope around Xiao Yunqi's upper arm, then aimed the needle of the bamboo syringe at the bend of Xiao Yunqi's arm.
However, he also heard Jiang Xueruo say that it should be injected into the bluish area under the skin, where there are blood vessels or something, but he has never practiced it, so how can he be so accurate?
He was sweating profusely as he tried to insert the needle several times, but none of them went in. Xiao Yunqi frowned in pain and kicked him to the ground!
"How dare you! Are you making fun of me?"
Xu Liang rolled on the ground, stunned. Then he suddenly came to his senses and knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness Prince Jin, please spare me! Your Highness Prince Jin, please spare me! I would never dare to joke with Your Highness Prince Jin, even if I am beaten to death. It's really..."
Xiao Yunqi was so angry that he covered his forehead. Where did these idiots come from? How could he be so stupid as to believe them?
Just as he was about to wave his hand and have his men take the two out and kill them, Jiang Xueruo, who had been kneeling on the ground and not daring to look up, said tremblingly: "Your Highness Prince Jin...I...will you let me try?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunqi glanced at Jiang Xueruo calmly and asked, "Can you?"
Jiang Xueruo said tremblingly, "Yes... yes! I personally saw the doctor from Medicine King Valley give injections to my brother and father..."
Medicine King Valley? Although he had never heard of it, the name sounded believable. The key point was that he had no other options now, so he said, "In that case, come and give it a try."
Jiang Xueruo then knelt over and took the syringe. The first shot was not accurate, and Xiao Yunqi couldn't help but feel the veins on his forehead bulge.
However, Jiang Xueruo was also lucky, as the second injection hit the target by accident.
Jiang Xueruo was delighted: "It went in!"
Then, he slowly pushed the medicine into Xiao Yunqi's body.
Xiao Yunqi looked up at Jiang Xueruo and found that although this woman was dressed in rags, she seemed to be quite pretty. He couldn't help but become interested in her.
