Fu Yanci turned around suddenly, and the moment he saw the familiar face, he became completely uneasy.
Fu Yanci summoned his inner strength and flew to the front of the carriage, opening his arms towards Jiang Jingyu who was about to get off. "Why are you here?"
"I'm worried about you."
Jiang Jingyu naturally put her arms around Fu Yanci's neck and let him carry her out of the carriage.
Seeing this, other officials hurried forward and said, "Your subordinate greets the madam."
Jiang Jingyu landed steadily and looked at the others: "No need to be so polite, my lords."
"Madam is so willful, are you guys also following her lead?"
Fu Yanci's cold gaze swept across Xiang Lao and the others. Their backs stiffened and they lowered their heads, not daring to say anything.
"Well, I insisted on coming here, and my grandmother agreed. If you want to blame someone, blame me. It's none of their business."
Jiang Jingyu held Fu Yanci's hand and lightly tickled his palm with her fingertips to signal him to calm down.
Fu Yanci pursed his lips tightly, looked at Jiang Jingyu with some heartache, and ordered: "Take Madam back to my room first."
Jiang Jingyu traveled a long distance with her eight-month-old belly. Fu Yanci couldn't imagine how much suffering she had endured along the way.
After Fu Yanci let go of Jiang Jingyu, her eight-month pregnant belly instantly appeared from under the fox fur coat.
"General, Madam, please follow me!"
After seeing Jiang Jingyu's pregnant belly, the soldiers following Fu Yanci did not dare to delay and hurriedly took Jiang Jingyu back to the post station.
Jiang Jingyu did not refuse. According to Fu Yanci's personality, he would not let her get close to those patients infected with the disease. She could only find another opportunity to take out the Baiyi Pills and let the people take them.
After Jiang Jingyu arrived in Jiangnan, she was placed in a post station. Fu Yanci was afraid that she would run around and get infected with the epidemic, so he specially ordered someone to guard the door.
Jiang Jingyu fought with the guards with a battle of wits and courage, and finally found an opportunity on the third day and threw the Hundred Diseases Pills into the well water that the people were drinking.
After completing this task, Jiang Jingyu breathed a sigh of relief and waited quietly for the Baiyi Pills to take effect.
Fu Yanci led his men to investigate for five days and finally found the source of the disease. He kept his troops in place and sent people to monitor secretly. Finally, he successfully captured Gui Lao, who created the source of the disease.
After repeated questioning by the Third Prince, Gui Lao suddenly remembered that he still had some evidence that he had not dealt with cleanly, but he did not dare to tell the Third Prince, so he had to secretly come to Jiangnan and plan to destroy the evidence.
Unexpectedly, he capsized in the ditch and was caught red-handed by the guards that Fu Yanci had arranged long ago!
A plague broke out in Jiangnan, and people fell to the ground overnight. Just when everyone thought that Jiangnan would suffer heavy casualties this time, the condition of the sick people suddenly improved!
This is great news for everyone!
Even Mr. Xiang said it was wonderful!
To be on the safe side, Mr. Xiang and the doctors decided to observe the patient for a while longer. What if the improvement was just an illusion?
However, on the third day of their observation, they found that the epidemic disease in some people had recovered as before!
Mr. Xiang immediately ran to Fu Yanci and the prince and reported the good news of the day to them.
"really?"
The prince suddenly sat up straight and looked at Xiang Lao with sharp eyes.
"Your Highness, it's absolutely true!"
"Hahaha, great! That's great!"
The prince slapped his thigh excitedly. He knew Xiang Lao's identity, so he did not doubt his words at all.
"Come here, move the recovered people to another place!"
"yes!"
After the guards withdrew, the prince continued to say to Xiang Lao, "Please continue to check on the people's situation. Report any new situation immediately!"
"Your Highness, you are too kind. This is all my responsibility."
He bowed to the old man and was about to leave when Fu Yanci's voice sounded behind him.
"By the way, please pay attention to the difference in food and drink between the recovered people and other people."
Fu Yanci suddenly gave an instruction. As for why he gave this instruction, it was naturally because of Jiang Jingyu's crazy hint.
In the next few days, a group of patients recovered every day. The prince and Fu Yanci both breathed a sigh of relief, and the burden on their shoulders was lightened a little.
Apart from investigating in Kyoto, Fu Yanci spent the rest of his time at the post station with Jiang Jingyu.
"Ayu, he moved, he moved, he just kicked me!"
Fu Yanci's face was pressed against Jiang Jingyu's belly, and he raised his head excitedly when he felt the fetal movement.
Jiang Jingyu poked Fu Yanci's handsome face with her scallion finger and said with a smile, "The due date is in another month. This little guy has been very noisy lately, often kicking me awake in the middle of the night."
Upon hearing this, the excitement on Fu Yanci's face was instantly replaced by heartache.
He touched Jiang Jingyu's belly and warned her in a deep voice: "Don't make trouble again, your mother, do you hear me? Otherwise, I will spank you and teach you a lesson after you are born."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Yanci's hand was suddenly kicked by the baby in Jiang Jingyu's belly.
His face darkened instantly...
…
More and more people recovered from the epidemic, and after Jiang Jingyu's reminder, Xiang Lao was now certain that the problem was with the well water. The people recovered because they drank the water from that well.
This should have been a great joyous event, but the prince felt increasingly uneasy.
Fu Yanci noticed the prince's uneasiness and guessed that his uneasiness was because of the Crown Princess.
A Yu said that the Crown Princess's due date was a month earlier than hers, so it would be in the next few days.
Fu Yanci came to the prince's room and said solemnly, "Your Highness, please go back to the East Palace first. I will stay here to clean up."
"Yanci."
The prince was a little hesitant. Fu Yanci had gotten into this mess just for him. How could he leave him and return to the capital early?
"Your Highness, the horses for the return trip to the capital are ready. I will find an excuse to cover up your whereabouts. Just rest assured and return to the capital. The Crown Princess needs you."
Under Fu Yanci's persuasion, the prince took off the dragon robe that symbolized his status and rode away on horseback. He traveled all night in the heavy rain and finally returned before the Crown Princess gave birth.
The moment the Crown Princess saw the Crown Prince, the tense string in her heart completely relaxed, and her amniotic fluid broke.
After half an hour of anxious waiting, the Crown Princess successfully gave birth to a baby boy, and both mother and child are safe.
The people in Jiangnan recovered after drinking the well water mixed with Baiyi Pills. Fu Yanci and Jiang Jingyu did not stay long and immediately set off back to the imperial capital.
In order to be able to take care of Jiang Jingyu at all times, Fu Yanci chose to ride in a carriage with her. It was five days later when they returned to Kyoto.
It was not until Fu Yanci and the prince returned safely to Kyoto that the news of the end of the plague in Jiangnan was released.
The news soon reached the ears of the third prince, who was furious upon hearing the news.
"Where's Ghost Master? Didn't he say it was foolproof? Why was the Jiangnan epidemic resolved so quickly?!"
