Chapter 48 The Marquis's Adopted Daughter and the Cold Prince 20
"You are crazy!" Ning Hou's wife yelled, "You have harmed the Hou Mansion, what advantage can you get?"
Chen Qu patted Ning Changwen's shoulder with satisfaction and said, "You have sacrificed your own family for the greater good and helped the court to find out the traitor. After this case is over, the emperor will definitely give you the title of Marquis Jingyuan again. Don't worry!"
Ning Changwen was overjoyed and bowed his hands in thanks: "Please, Lord Chen, please speak well of me in front of His Majesty!"
Han Ping had a guess about the truth.
This was a carefully planned trap.
It seems that the Marquis Jingyuan's Mansion has been targeted for a long time.
After the search officers and soldiers left, Han Ping said to Cha Jiu and Ning Hou's wife, "Don't worry, ladies. I will take care of Changting and send someone to inform you if there is any news. I believe that the emperor will investigate this matter thoroughly and clear the name of the Ning Hou Mansion."
Lady Ning Hou wiped her tears and said, "I hope so."
Cha Jiu bowed to him solemnly: "Thank you, sir."
Han Ping helped her up: "Changting is my brother, and you are also my sister-in-law, no need to thank me. Take care of yourself and don't worry too much."
Having said that, he said goodbye and left.
Cha Jiu thought that it would take several days to get the news.
Unexpectedly, late that night, Han Ping hurriedly sent someone to report the news.
Not good news.
The servant who reported the news said, "Prince Ning has suddenly fallen ill in the Dali Temple and has now been sent to the epidemic hospital on the outskirts of the city!"
Lady Ninghou fainted immediately.
What is that quarantine center? It is filled with all kinds of patients suffering from the epidemic.
Even if there is no epidemic in Ningchangting, going there will be a risk of death.
The old lady was heartbroken and refused to believe it: "Changting has always been in good health, how could he get sick after just one day in the Dali Temple?"
Cha Jiu vaguely guessed the intention of the person behind the scenes.
Someone wants to put Ning Changting to death, and then force Marquis Jingyuan and the current emperor to leave.
There may be someone in Shengjing plotting a rebellion.
"Grandmother, could you please pass me a sign into the palace? I want to see the Empress."
The old lady wondered: "What are you going to do?"
Cha Jiu's eyes were firm: "I want to ask for permission to go to the quarantine center to take care of Chang Ting."
"No!" the old lady exclaimed, "You are still pregnant, going to the quarantine center would mean two deaths!"
"Grandma, please listen to me."
Cha Jiu patiently said, "Chang Ting is ill and there is no one to take care of her in the quarantine center. The doctors there are not very skilled. But if I ask for permission to go there, the Empress will allow me to bring a doctor and servants to take care of her because I am pregnant."
"Grandma, I'm not being reckless. Please believe me. The child, Changting and I will definitely return safely."
In fact, these are just words. She has to go to see Ning Changting in person so that she can use the system to determine what disease he has, prescribe the right medicine, and use props and medicine to save his life.
But if she didn't go, Ning Changting would surely die in that place.
The old lady's eyes were filled with tears and she held Cha Jiu's hand for a long time, unable to calm down.
She didn't expect Cha Jiu to love Chang Ting so much!
Finally, the old lady compromised, took out the palace card, and took Cha Jiu into the palace overnight.
The Marquis' Mansion had once been very kind to the Empress, and now they were only sending female relatives to be taken care of by her side; it wasn't an excessive request.
Therefore, Cha Jiu packed up his things the next day and went to the quarantine center with two servants who were willing to serve him.
After Ning Hou's wife woke up and learned about the incident, she regretted her decision and wished she could go back to the past and treat Cha Jiu better.
When the news spread in Shengjing, people began to sigh for the deep love and loyalty of Prince Ning's wife.
As soon as Cha Jiu arrived at the door of the quarantine center, he was almost nauseated by the strong and unpleasant smell of medicine and decay.
In the courtyard where the situation was the most serious, soldiers with their mouths and noses covered with white cloth were carrying dead patients back and forth. They carried patients as long as Cha Jiu and his men had been there.
You can see how many people died in this epidemic center.
Cha Jiu became even more worried about Ning Changting.
In this cross-infection environment, even if Ning Changting was not infected, it would probably be infected.
She exchanged the anti-epidemic drugs with the system and distributed them to several people who voluntarily followed her to the quarantine center.
This medicine can protect against 99 percent of diseases.
After watching them swallow the medicine, Cha Jiu lowered his head and touched his stomach, mustered up his courage, and stepped into the lifeless quarantine center.
"Excuse me, where is Prince Ning of Marquis Jingyuan's Mansion?" Cha Jiu took out the Queen's handwritten letter and asked.
The officer pointed in a certain direction indifferently: "West Third Hospital, find it yourself."
They don't want to go in unless it's necessary.
There was no other way, so Cha Jiu and the others could only search one courtyard after another, and finally found the courtyard in the northwest corner of the epidemic center.
As soon as he entered the yard, Cha Jiu found Ning Changting lying beside the well.
"Changting!"
"My Lord!"
Cha Jiu ignored the doctor's dissuasion and rushed over to help him up from the ground.
He was still breathing, but his face was flushed and his forehead was very hot.
The system quickly collected blood for testing and analyzed the results: "Tetanus, and also infected with epidemic diseases, but the amount of virus is not very large."
"Tetanus" Cha Jiu couldn't believe it.
System: "It's not easy to poison the food in Dali Temple, but it's easy to poison it with tetanus, and then bribe the doctor to say that the fever is an epidemic."
Cha Jiu: "Do you have the potion item?"
"Yes, anti-inflammatory drugs, antipyretics, and corresponding antidotes will do the trick. It can be cured."
Only then did Cha Jiu breathe a sigh of relief.
Yong'an and his men worked together to lift the unconscious Ning Changting from the ground and brought him back to the room.
The quarantine center allocated a separate courtyard to Ning Changting. On the surface, it was a courtesy, but in reality it was done with ill intentions.
This yard is located in the most remote corner, with no one around. Even if Ning Changting died here, no one would find out.
The room was dark and damp, with dust everywhere. The teapot on the table was covered with cobwebs. No wonder Ning Changting had to force himself to walk to the well outside to fetch water despite his sick body.
Fortunately, when Cha Jiu arrived, he had someone bring comfortable, soft and thick mattresses and quilts to spread on the simple wooden bed.
The pillow was stuffed with dried herbs for epidemic prevention and calming the nerves, the quilt was soft and warm, and Ning Changting's cold body finally stopped shaking unconsciously.
Cha Jiu stroked his thin and haggard face, feeling sad in his heart.
It seems that he has really suffered a lot in the past two days.
The doctor examined Ning Changting's pulse and his final conclusion was similar to what the system said, but he was somewhat helpless about the treatment.
"Young Madam, I can only prescribe medicine to relieve the prince's fever, but the treatment of the epidemic..." He shook his head and sighed.
The development of medicine in this era still has many shortcomings.
Cha Jiu said calmly: "It's okay, just do your best."
Bringing a doctor is just a cover, in the end, we still have to use systematic medicines.
While the doctor was preparing medicinal materials, Yongan and Xiaomei were also busy. They cleaned the dusty and smelly room inside and out according to Chajiu's request.
Chajiu also poured disinfectant into the well to prevent the water source from being contaminated by the virus.
After much effort, the lifeless West Third Courtyard was finally transformed into a clean and livable yard.
A comfortable living place will make Ning Changting's recovery more convenient.
The hot water is ready. Cha Jiu adjusts the water to a suitable drinking temperature and mixes the antipyretic agent into it.
"Changting, wake up, drink some water before you go to sleep."
Cha Jiu moistened Ning Changting's dry and chapped lips with water and called him softly in his ear.
Ning Changting woke up from a dizzy and uncomfortable nightmare, lifted his heavy eyelids, and vaguely saw the person in front of him.
"Wild Goose...Book"
His voice was hoarse and contained disbelief.
Does he have to die to see his beloved wife at the last moment of his life?
