When Xia Xiaoxian heard at Prince Lu's Mansion that Shen Yuyao had been infected with the epidemic, the braised pork no longer tasted good to her, so she urged Xia Yu to rush back to the inn.
Her mother's face was slightly red, with fine beads of sweat on her forehead, her beautiful eyebrows were twisted together, and her eyes were slightly closed.
It looks like quite hard work.
"Mother, mother, Xiaoxian is back!"
Xia Xiaoxian sat obediently in front of Shen Yuyao's bed with a small handkerchief on her face.
But Shen Yuyao did not wake up.
Zi Su stood beside Shen Yuyao's bed, secretly wiping away her tears.
Xia Yu also looked worried and remained silent.
Xia Xiaoxian wanted to visit Shen Yuyao, but Xia Yu originally refused.
Later, he couldn't stand Xia Xiaoxian's resentful look any more, and finally agreed to let her visit Shen Yuyao wearing a brocade handkerchief.
Xia Yu looked at Shen Yuyao on the bed and asked Zi Su softly, "Princess, did she sleep for a long time?"
Zi Su replied, "My Lord, Miss, she slept for almost five hours."
Zi Su thought for a moment and added, "In between, I slept quite soundly for a while, but I just started coughing and having a fever again."
Xia Xiaoxian pursed her lips, pulled Shen Yuyao's wrist, and quietly passed the fairy spirit to her mother.
Finally, Shen Yuyao's expression softened a little.
What kind of epidemic is this so dangerous? Even my mother has been infected?
Xia Xiaoxian was very surprised. Logically, she and Shen Yuyao were connected by blood, so ordinary epidemics would hardly hurt her.
[Turn the page! Turn the page!]
My memory is getting worse, ah.
[The ice of the cold river melted into a plague, and only one out of ten households survived...]
......
It’s so painful!
Shen Yuyao felt as if her whole body was being roasted in a furnace and then thrown into a cold pond to soak.
Just when I had adapted to the severe cold, I was thrown into the furnace again and again, and my whole body felt like it was falling apart.
Just when she was suffering, she suddenly heard Xia Xiaoxian's soft and cute voice.
Her little fairy treasure!
Calling her!
Shen Yuyao suddenly opened her eyes.
woke up.
When I opened my eyes, I saw Xia Xiaoxian, whose face was filled with anxiety that I had never seen before.
"Xiaoxian..." Shen Yuyao called out to Xia Xiaoxian in a very low and weak voice.
She was trying hard to force a smile.
Shen Yuyao didn't want her little fairy baby to worry too much.
Shen Yuyao raised her hand and slowly stroked Xia Xiaoxian's chubby face.
Soft and sticky.
Very comfortable.
Xia Yu was extremely happy to see Shen Yuyao wake up.
Fortunately, he still had enough self-control, otherwise he would have burst into tears on the spot.
He felt like he almost lost her just now!
When Xia Yu thought about the feeling of being heartbroken and unable to breathe, he felt as surprised as if he had been reborn.
He just looked at Shen Yuyao stupidly, his pretty lips trembling slightly, but he still couldn't say a word.
Xia Yu turned his head and looked at the roof, trying his best to force back the tear in the corner of his eye.
Shen Yuyao didn't notice Xia Yu beside the bed.
She tried hard to recall what Xia Xiaoxian had just said.
"The ice of the cold... river... melted into... plague. Ten households... only one...?"
What did she mean?
Why can the frost condensed on cold mountains and rivers turn into plague?
Only one out of ten households will die. Does that mean many people will die because of this?
"Xiaoxian, what were you saying just now?" Shen Yuyao was confused and couldn't tell whether it was Xia Xiaoxian who said it out loud or what was in her heart.
"Mother, this disease..."
What Xia Xiaoxian actually didn't know was that Shen Yuyao had long known that she was a fairy from the lower world. At this moment, she was hesitant about how to tell her mother about the danger of this epidemic.
[The ice of the cold river melted into a plague, and only one out of ten households survived...]
[The "Three Lives Book" records this: Based on the population of the Great Xia Dynasty, only one in fifty people would survive this plague!]
How should I tell my mother? This same plague, faced by people over 360 years later, was once helpless!
Fortunately, a special medicine was later discovered, which allowed the Daxia people to survive.
The effective medicine for this epidemic is actually quite common: seven grams of indigo root, three grams of honeysuckle, three grams of forsythia, two grams of mint, five grams of platycodon, two grams of burdock, six grams of bamboo leaves, and three grams of reed root. Boil over high heat for a quarter of an hour, then simmer over low heat for two hours.
[Even though I know this prescription, how can I make my mother trust me?]
At first, when Shen Yuyao heard Xia Xiaoxian say "more than one out of ten households", she was almost scared to death. After listening carefully, she realized that there would be a mature prescription three hundred and sixty years later, and she felt relieved.
The prescription was used more than 360 years in advance. Shen Yuyao is extremely lucky to have this mother-daughter relationship with Xia Xiaoxian.
Shen Yuyao pursed her lips and smiled softly, looking at Xia Xiaoxian with tenderness in her eyes.
Xia Xiaoxian's face turns red when she is anxious, which is also very cute.
"Zi Su, prepare some paper and pen for me. I need to rewrite the prescription."
Shen Yuyao propped herself up halfway and gave Zi Su instructions with some difficulty.
"Your Majesty."
Just as Zi Su responded, Zhang Yu's voice came from outside the door.
Only then did Shen Yuyao see Xia Yu still beside the bed, he was watching the mother and daughter silently.
Shen Yuyao smiled and nodded slightly at Xia Yu.
Xia Yu said softly: "Come in."
"Your Highness, um..." Zhang Yu stammered, but refused to go into the house.
"Come in, the princess is better now, nothing's wrong!"
Only then did Zhang Yu hesitate and enter the house.
"Your Highness..." Zhang Yu looked at Shen Yuyao, but remained hesitant to speak.
Shen Yuyao's heart skipped a beat. Could there be something that Zhang Yu didn't want her to hear?
"Go ahead, I'm fine." Shen Yuyao said calmly.
Zhang Yu took a deep breath and said, "Your Highness, Princess, and Father Ma, we've passed!"
What?
Hasn't he gotten better?
Zhang Yu lowered his head. He thought of Ma Sanbao's bloodshot eyes, his grief-stricken expression and his suppressed sobs.
Zhang Yu was also very sad.
Ma Sanbao also specifically reminded that if the princess was not feeling well, she must not be told.
Dad Ma has passed away.
Zhang Yu felt very sorry for the child Ma Sanbao.
He is only seven or eight years old, but he knows how to be grateful and patient.
Shen Yuyao was in a panic. She changed the medicine for Old Man Ma to a stronger one. She thought that Old Man Ma should be able to hold on, or at least not die so quickly!
result.
Still couldn't save him!
Shen Yuyao silently recited the prescription she had written and the prescription Xia Xiaoxian had mentioned in her heart.
There is a missing ingredient between the two.
Big blue root!
She actually forgot the record about indigo root in the family medical book.
"Indigo root: clears heat and detoxifies, cools blood and eliminates blemishes, used during epidemics!"
"Zi Su, Zi Su, help me up quickly!"
Shen Yuyao's face was pale and her hair was disheveled.
She turned to look at Xia Yu again and said urgently, "Your Highness, we need to revise the prescription, quickly! This epidemic is so dangerous, only one out of ten households will be killed!"
Only one out of ten households!
