Chapter 141: Sacrificing one's life for the country, a worthy death
Chu Huaixu nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I understand. I'll go now."
Liuyun had finished other things and came back. When he heard this, he stepped forward and wanted to help.
But before he could say anything, Chu Huaixu glared at him.
Although Liuyun didn't know why he was being glared at, he still obediently took a few steps back and stood aside.
Chu Huaixu then hurried to the door with a few pieces of paper.
This is the task assigned to him by Youning, he must do it well.
Yu Wencheng, who was waiting anxiously outside, was about to kneel down when he saw Chu Huaixu.
"No need to kneel." Chu Huaixu interrupted Yuwen Cheng directly, "Go find some paper and pen, copy down everything on here, and then send everything over here. When will the imperial physician arrive?"
"Should be soon—"
Before Yuwen Cheng could finish his words, a group of people came hurriedly over here.
The one running in front was Doctor Zhao.
Seeing that it was Doctor Zhao who came with his men, Chu Huaixu subconsciously frowned, a little surprised.
This is the golden plague that everyone is afraid of.
As long as there is even a slight possibility, no one would be willing to come.
Doctor Zhao has just learned the art of regenerating severed limbs and is about to pass it on to other people. He is now considered a pillar of the country and an indispensable talent.
As long as he said he didn't want to come, no one would force him to come, but why did he come anyway?
Doctor Zhao came closer and knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Your Highness, I am here!"
"The people who came with me are all doctors who are learning limb regeneration from me. As soon as they heard about the situation here, they immediately agreed to come with me."
"May I ask, Your Highness, what is the situation inside now?"
Chu Huaixu looked at them, "You have to know that if you come in, you might not be able to get out, and you might even lose your life. Are you sure you have thought it through?"
Imperial Physician Zhao was the first to answer, "Your Highness, I have thought it through clearly. As the Imperial Physician, it is my duty to heal illnesses and save lives. Furthermore, Master is still in there. I absolutely cannot leave him alone."
Another person immediately said, "Although we have never met the master, we are willing to follow him."
"That's right, we are willing to follow our master. Our master's medical skills are superb, and he will definitely be able to overcome this danger. Even if he can't, we are willing to advance and retreat with our master, and share life and death with him."
After listening to their words and seeing the determined expressions on their faces, Chu Huaixu finally relaxed. "Since you have made up your mind, then come in. No matter what the outcome this time, the court will not treat your family unfairly."
These people had already decided to die heroically, and now after hearing what Chu Huaixu said, they felt even more relieved.
If they really died here, it would be considered as sacrificing their lives for the country and a worthy death.
After death, their families will be taken care of by the court, so what else do they have to worry about?
Chu Huaixu stepped aside and said, "You guys go in. Youning should be on the second floor right now. Go ask her what you should do."
Doctor Zhao hurriedly agreed and led his men to the second floor.
Chu Huaixu retracted his gaze and looked at Yuwen Cheng, "Don't just stand there, copy this down quickly and send everything here quickly."
"yes!"
…
Such a big incident, which caused such a big commotion, naturally and inevitably caused panic in the capital.
But all the imperial guards had been dispatched, including the City Patrol, Military Affairs, Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Ministry of Personnel... All the troops were dispatched and the situation was quickly suppressed.
Everyone must stay at home and are not allowed to walk around outside.
If anyone needs to buy food, they just need to report it and someone will deliver it to their doorstep.
Those diners who left Jinzun Pavilion were also found and sent back along with their families.
Some people were reluctant to admit that they had been to Jinzun Pavilion at first, but when they knew that I could only harm myself and my family at home, they dared not hide it anymore.
Anyway, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still in Jinzun Pavilion. If they go back, they might have a chance of survival. Hiding at home will only lead to death.
Fortunately, they went straight home after dinner and did not contact other people, otherwise the Jinzun Pavilion would not be able to accommodate them all.
Two hours later, the entire capital was under martial law.
It was broad daylight, but there was no one on the streets. The entire capital was eerily quiet, making people feel uneasy for no reason.
Lin Mansion, Chunxueyuan.
Lin Ruoli's face was full of anxiety, and she kept pacing around the room.
"Mother, what should we do now? The Crown Prince is also in Jinzun Pavilion. What if something happens to him?"
"Why did he go to Jinzun Pavilion? He must have been dragged there by Yu Youning. It's all Yu Youning's fault. She's a jinx. Our family has never been at peace since she came. So many things have happened one after another. Now even the crown prince has been harmed by her."
The more Lin Ruoli spoke, the more anxious she became. Seeing Lin Siqiong still sitting there making tea, she became even more anxious.
"Mother, it's already so late. How come you still have the energy to make tea?"
Lin Siqiong then slowly raised her eyes and glanced at Lin Ruoli, "Why are you in such a hurry? Have you forgotten what I told you before? This is a good chance for us to turn things around."
"But this was not our previous plan!" Lin Ruoli looked panicked and her voice was very nervous.
Lin Siqiong took a sip of tea. "You've read so many books, don't you understand that plans can't keep up with changes? Before, we just thought we'd wait until the Golden Plague spread throughout the capital, killing some people, and then you and I would show up with the prescription and save the entire capital."
"But now the Crown Prince is also implicated. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you and me!"
"Li'er, think about it. If the Crown Prince also contracted the Golden Plague, and you showed up with the prescription and saved his life when he was seriously ill, would he be grateful?"
"By that time, you will have become the prince's savior. Are you still afraid that he won't look at you differently? If he still doesn't take you seriously, then in the eyes of the world, he will be seen as an ungrateful person. Even for the sake of the people's hearts, he can no longer be so cold to you."
"Li'er, if you want to achieve great things, you must be patient. Mother knows that you have always been attracted to the Crown Prince, but you must always let him see your importance instead of constantly pushing him."
After hearing Lin Siqiong's words, Lin Ruoli gradually calmed down. "Mother is right. But when is the best time for us to take out the prescription? Isn't it said that this disease develops very quickly?"
What if they go too late and the prince is already dead?
Lin Siqiong smiled and said, "Don't worry. This disease will take at least two days from onset to serious illness. It will only torture him for two days. Don't feel too sorry for him.
Li'er, you have to remember that you can't be too nice to men, and you can't be too open with them, otherwise you will be the only one who gets hurt in the end."
Lin Ruoli didn't understand what Lin Siqiong meant, but she nodded subconsciously, "Mother taught me this, Li'er has taken note."
Seeing Lin Ruoli's well-behaved and obedient appearance, Lin Siqiong felt a little better.
"You should rest for a while. Mother has gone home first."
Lin Siqiong stood up and walked out without giving Lin Ruoli a chance to speak.
After leaving Chunxueyuan and returning to her own courtyard, Lin Siqiong just sat down in the house and threw the celadon teapot beside her out fiercely.
The teapot fell to the ground and shattered, leaving only a mess on the ground.
Lin Siqiong didn't even look at the fragments, and gritted her teeth and said, "Once the Golden Plague is discovered outside, immediately find a way to make Shen Qingmo infected as well."
Shen Qingmo relied on her to get to his current position. Now that she is in trouble, Shen Qingmo is delusionally thinking of divorcing her and drawing a clear line between them. It is simply a daydream.
She had sent people to kill Shen Qingmo's concubine and child before, just to give him a warning and to remind him to come and coax her.
But so many days have passed, and she still hasn't seen Shen Qingmo come to her house.
It seems that Shen Qingmo is determined to divorce him this time.
Since he is shameless even though I give him face, I have no choice but to completely tear off his skin!
As Lin Siqiong thought about it, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.
I hope that when death comes, Shen Qingmo will know all this and will not regret the decision he has made.
And there are Yu Tingwan and Yu Youning!
This mother and daughter are both damnable!
This time, she wants to catch them all in one fell swoop!
…
As the sky outside gradually darkened, the shopkeeper brought over the food with the only waiter who was not infected.
"Your Highness, and everyone else, hurry up and eat something," the shopkeeper said gently. "We don't know how long we'll be here. If we don't eat well, our bodies might collapse at any moment. By then, won't the little doctor be even busier?"
This statement is obviously of some use.
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Huaixu, who had been motionless just now, immediately picked up the chopsticks.
"You're right. I should eat well. This way I can keep my body in good health and help Youning when she needs help."
"Old Marshal Wen, Second Young Master Wen, Young Island Master, you should eat something too! Even if it's just to prevent You Ning from worrying, you should still eat something."
The three of them sighed deeply after hearing this, then picked up the bowl in one hand and the chopsticks in the other and started eating.
The meal was not prepared by the chef because he was sick and bedridden.
The meal was prepared by the shop owner, and the waiter beside him helped him.
When he was young, he was also a chef. He has cooked occasionally over the years. Although the food he made is not as good as that of a chef, it can be considered to be delicious.
However, at this moment, no one was in the mood to savor the food carefully, and everything they ate tasted like chewing wax.
They had only eaten half of their meal when Yu Youning flew down the stairs like a red butterfly.
"Is dinner ready? Is dinner ready? Why didn't anyone call me? I'm starving!"
