Chapter 349 Critical Illness
"Write me a prescription and I will send it to the emperor." Lu Qiniang said.
This was the best solution she could think of.
The emperor can ask the imperial physician for a prescription, or he can let Song Mingzhen decide whether to use it or not.
In short, live a sensible life, use it if you want or not, and don’t blame others in the end.
"Are you still going to trouble the Emperor?"
"Human life is at stake. I can still do this." Lu Qiniang said without hesitation, "Besides, Zhang Heyao got into trouble while on duty for the Emperor. The Emperor's reward of the prescription is also a sign of his concern for him."
This is what the emperor should do.
Doctor Hu wrote a prescription for her after much nagging.
Lu Qiniang took the prescription to find Teng Wenfu. After waiting for two days, she finally waited for Teng Wenfu and handed the prescription to him.
Teng Wenfu readily agreed to help.
After receiving the prescription, Teng Wenfu asked about Xiao Yan.
"He went to Jinling," Lu Qiniang did not hide it. "I owe the Fifth Young Master a big favor. It just so happened that the Fifth Young Master wanted to go look for his relatives and couldn't go himself, so Xiao Yan agreed to help him go."
"Jinling?" Teng Wenfu seemed to be thinking about something, and when he looked at Lu Qiniang, there was a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"Yes, Jinling. Xiao Yan said that he and the King of Yan had some friendship in the past, so he went to see if he could use this favor."
Teng Wenfu thought to himself that it sounded quite frank, but he wondered what the emperor would think when he found out.
After all, those papers that seemed to have drilled out from the ground still made the emperor feel uneasy when he thought about them.
However, looking at Lu Qiniang's honest appearance, Teng Wenfu felt that she probably wouldn't think so much.
"I'll present this recipe to the Emperor for you. Now go back."
Lu Qi Niang felt a little embarrassed and said awkwardly, "I'm bothering you again. I always trouble you to love me. I don't know what I can do for you. If you need me, please let me know."
This favor is so hard to repay.
The main thing is that Teng Wenfu has seen all kinds of good things.
Lu Qin's mother also felt embarrassed, and always brought wild vegetables to remind people of the good old days.
It’s enough to recall this pain occasionally.
If you think about it too often, it will become boring.
"I'll ask you for something." Teng Wenfu was a shrewd man, so he naturally guessed what Lu Qiniang was thinking. He smiled and comforted her, "I'll ask you when the time comes."
"Then it's a deal." Lu Qiniang said, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely help you."
"good."
Teng Wenfu watched Lu Qiniang leave.
After that, almost every day, Lu Qiniang had to go to Sun Shun to inquire about Zhang Heyao's news.
But Sun Shun didn't know much either.
Lu Qi Niang was at home, and she couldn't help but murmur to Daya, "What's the use of humans? They're no better than birds with wings. They can fly wherever they want. I don't want to get close to him, I just want to know how he's doing now."
"Mother, don't worry. Lord Zhang has made a great contribution this time. The Emperor will definitely do his utmost to have him rescued."
If Zhang Heyao survives the disaster, then in the future——
I'm afraid he will be successful.
Dad’s situation is not easy.
Because power makes a man swell up.
I'm afraid he would have fewer concerns now.
Daya was worried, but didn't dare show it.
"That's true. The Emperor is such a good person. Even if your father was a troublemaker, the Emperor wouldn't say what to do with him if he really made contributions. Zhang Heyao is smooth and capable, so the Emperor will naturally not ignore him."
Lu Qiniang said that she would go and burn incense.
This is more realistic for her.
"Abandoned mother, abandoned mother," Sun Shun ran into the shop, panting, "Master Zhang is back."
Lu Qiniang looked at him in disbelief, tears in her eyes.
The person is gone now?
It has only been five or six days since we found out about his accident, so it is impossible to cure him.
If he can't be cured, he will come back. But is there any other possibility except that he is dead?
"Brother..." Lu Qinniang burst into tears, "My brother is gone, I don't have a brother anymore."
All the hatred and resentment from the past no longer exist.
The entanglement between them disappeared with the death of Zhang Heyao, and all that remained were the memories of their youth.
"Abandoned Mother, don't cry." Sun Shun was stunned for a moment, "Didn't Mr. Zhang..."
How can one say this?
To say he's not dead is a bit too direct.
Saying it's okay is not right.
"Master Zhang has returned for treatment. The doctor wouldn't let him move, but he insisted on coming back."
"Isn't he sick with the plague?"
Wouldn’t that infect people in the capital if he came back?
"It's an epidemic, but he said he had unfinished business in the capital, so they took him from Kaifeng to Jining in a carriage. Then they chartered a ship from Jining back to the capital." Sun Shun lowered his head and said, "He's currently in a villa outside the capital. Except for those who take care of him, no one is allowed in or out to prevent the spread of the epidemic."
"What unfinished business does he have?"
Lu Qiniang thought, Zhang Heyao really hasn't changed at all.
Whatever he wants to do, he will do it even if it means risking his life.
"He wants to see you." Sun Shun was worried that Lu Qiniang would refuse, so he spoke quickly, not giving her a chance to interrupt him. "Lord Zhang is afraid of infecting you, so he specifically asked you to stand in the yard for a while so that he can see you through the curtain. He won't infect you. The plague is not that scary."
Perhaps because of proper protection, none of the people who took care of him on the road have been infected so far.
Lu Qiniang lowered her head and thought for a while, "Does the princess know about this?"
"I know." Sun Shun said, "Although the princess didn't go there in person, she sent Shuyu, who was by her side, to take care of Master Zhang. She also knew that Master Zhang wanted to see you, so she asked me to come and invite you."
"Then I'll go with you."
If this is the last time we will see each other from afar, then Lu Qi Niang will go.
Zhang Heyao's villa in the suburbs of Beijing is very grand - people who have dealt with Zhang Heyao all know that this minister lives an extremely refined and particular life and does not tolerate any neglect, so this villa in the suburbs of Beijing also has pavilions, towers, rockery and flowing water, and every step is a scene.
However, Lu Qiniang had no intention of appreciating it. Led by Sun Shun, she went straight to the main courtyard.
She stood behind the screen wall in the main courtyard amid the shrill chirping of cicadas.
The heat of August noon, wrapped in the smell of medicine, penetrated my nose. It turned out that Shuyu was squatting in the yard boiling medicine.
Lu Qiniang saw the gray figure lying behind Xiang Fei's bamboo curtain.
"This bamboo curtain is new and soaked in mugwort juice. It won't transmit the disease to you from a distance of three meters." Sun Shun whispered, "These are all instructions from Lord Zhang."
"Abandoned Mother..."
Zhang Heyao's weak and hoarse voice could be heard intermittently.
Lu Qiniang clenched her hands suddenly.
Zhang Heyao, why are you so weak?
I don't know when the cicadas stopped chirping, but the copper bells on the eaves rang.
Lu Qiniang raised her hand to touch the corner of her eyes and felt a cool wetness.
She spoke with difficulty: "Brother, are you okay?"
