Chapter 963 So many people died
Fu Zhaoning ignored Yuan Yi and turned back into the yard.
She was a little worried. She didn't know what the urgent report was, but it must not be a trivial matter that could make Xiao Lanyuan leave in a hurry.
There are already too many things going on now. If something else happens, she will be overwhelmed and worried that Xiao Lanyuan will be too tired.
"Zhao Ning, come here quickly, there is a patient here with convulsions all over his body and his fingers are purple."
Fu Jinchen's voice was urgent.
Fu Zhaoning's face changed and he ran over quickly.
The patient had just been brought in two days ago. The people of Zhecheng were weak to begin with. This time he said he had been sick at home for several days, and his family did not discover him and send him in time, so his condition was already quite serious.
So even though there was not enough space here, Fu Zhaoning still tried his best to make room for him.
After Fu Zhaoning went in and was checked, he was found to be in critical condition. His temperature was extremely high, his fingers were bent and purple, and his body was twitching.
The other patients nearby were all gathered around, some were talking at once, some were at a loss, but most of them looked terrified.
Generally speaking, looking at symptoms like this, it is definitely impossible to save the patient.
Those who are timid are about to cry.
They had heard about people dying of illness before, and they were afraid, but they had never seen it with their own eyes. But now the person is right next to them, right in front of them, and the impact is completely different.
Fu Zhaoning quickly cooled him down physically and then gave him an anticonvulsant injection.
There are no instruments here, so she can only use acupuncture.
But the patient was convulsing so badly that all his muscles were tense, and even she found it difficult to give him the injection.
"Quick, help hold him down!"
But just as Fu Zhaoning finished speaking, the patient's body suddenly stiffened, and then he relaxed.
"Dead, dead?" someone asked in a trembling voice.
Fu Zhaoning's heart sank.
She reached down to the side of his neck, opened his eyes again, looked at them, and sighed.
It's too late to save him.
This patient must have a hidden disease, and now she is having a high fever seizure, so she can't hold on. But she needs to find out the specific cause.
"Confirmed death, time of death——"
Fu Zhaoning said this in a cold voice, causing everyone present to feel their hearts shrink.
Someone cried out in fear.
Some people subconsciously stepped back, fearing that they would be infected with the disease and die soon.
Some people just looked dull, with no expression on their face, and felt very confused.
For a moment, the atmosphere here was extremely heavy.
Someone asked blankly, "Is there anyone that Doctor Fu can't save?"
As soon as these words came out, Fu Jinchen immediately glanced over and said in a deep voice, "Doctor Fu is just a doctor, not a god! Even gods have diseases that are difficult to diagnose, let alone mortals? There are so many diseases, and everyone's physical condition is different. Which doctor can guarantee that he can cure all diseases in the world?"
Aunt Niu and others quickly followed suit.
"That's right! There's nothing we can do about it! This patient was already very ill when he was brought here!"
"Doctor Fu also tried his best to save the patient, but sometimes the King of Hell wants a person to die at three o'clock in the morning and will not keep him until five o'clock."
The patient was frightened when he heard what was said just now. He was afraid of angering the public and was even more afraid of being kicked out.
He shrank his neck, "That's not what I meant--"
He didn't question Doctor Fu's intention, he just felt that even Doctor Fu couldn't save him——
"Carry the man out," Fu Zhaoning was a little agitated at this moment, "and notify his family."
This patient's family members were also infected but are not here.
She felt uneasy because the number of people dying from illness would not stop there, and more people would die from illness. After all, she was not omnipotent.
The patient's body was carried out and handed over to government officials for disposal.
The nursing team that Fu Zhaoning had suggested to recruit some people was formed today. She didn't have time to be sentimental anymore and immediately went to give those people simple training.
A few more days passed as I was busy like this.
I was so busy for several days that I often returned to the room in the middle of the night. I might say a word or two to Xiao Lanyuan, or I might not even see him.
It is even more impossible for other people to talk to her unless they have something particularly important to do.
But in the past few days, the death toll has skyrocketed.
In just a few days, more than a dozen people died and hundreds of people were newly infected.
The people of the entire city and the disaster victims were all in fear and despair, and miserable cries could be heard every day.
The officers and soldiers and the nursing team were running around the city every day. Everyone was very tired, but the presence of Prince Jun in the city every day was a special reassurance.
"Even King Jun is still in Zhecheng, we are not afraid."
"I heard that Prince Jun is weak and sickly, but he is still fine. We may not all be infected."
"With Prince Jun here, the capital will surely send someone to support us, right?"
Everyone thinks so.
Just get through each day like this.
The news of Zhecheng had spread to the capital.
The emperor's secret decree had been sent here and had not been made public, but Xiao Lanyuan's people had found out about it in advance.
The urgent report that Prince Jun had received before was that a mysterious group of people were heading to Zhecheng and assassinated a girl along the way. The girl's figure was similar to that of Princess Fuyun.
Xiao Lanyuan guessed that it was someone sent by His Majesty Dahe, so he devised a plan to lure the person away.
It is not a good thing to let assassins come to Zhecheng at this time.
During these few days, Yuan Yi realized that the situation was not right and he had no chance to get closer to Fu Zhaoning, so he decided to return to the capital first.
He found Xiao Lanyuan.
"Master Yuan finally wants to return to Beijing?"
Xiao Lanyuan was waiting for him to speak.
"I originally wanted to come here to help out and learn about Princess Jun's medical skills, but now that there is no way, I can't help much. It's better to go back to the capital first. I can still help raise some medicinal materials."
Yuan Yi sighed in his heart, he felt very sorry.
But before coming, he hadn't expected Fu Zhaoning to be so busy.
If he stayed any longer, he was worried about being infected.
Now that he's dead, all his plans are useless.
"Now you can only enter Zhecheng but not leave." Xiao Lanyuan's voice was calm and without any emotion.
Yuan Yi's face changed slightly, "I can't go out? Isn't it true that with Princess Jun's diagnosis, as long as I'm not infected, I can leave the city?"
"That was a few days ago. Now the rules have been changed. It's mandatory. You can only enter but not leave." Xiao Lanyuan still said this.
Yuan Yi looked at his masked face.
He has been here for so long, but he hasn't even seen the true appearance of King Jun.
This couple was more difficult to deal with than he had imagined.
"Then when can we leave the city?" Yuan Yi asked.
He can come and go as he pleases? How can such a thing be possible?
Xiao Lanyuan said calmly, "I'm not sure yet, it depends on the situation."
With so many people dead, he didn't believe that Yuan Yi could still stay.
