Seeing Zhao Nanny's flustered look, Han Yunxi thought there was news from the palace, but Zhao Nanny was out of breath and shook her head repeatedly.
Han Yunxi was extremely anxious, "Mother Zhao, speak up!"
Zhao Momo was out of breath, "Princess Wangfei, Grand Concubine Yi...she wants...she is going to write a letter to ask Princess Rongle for help!"
"What?" Han Yunxi cried out in shock, unable to believe her ears.
"Really! The mother in the peony courtyard said... the princess cannot do this, it's too embarrassing!" Zhao mother was angry and anxious.
Han Yunxi was even more furious, and she went to the Peony Garden without saying a word.
Even the servants knew that it would be embarrassing to do this. Concubine Yi is crazy or stupid to think of such a way.
As a man, even an ordinary commoner, being forced to marry a wife is an extremely humiliating thing, let alone the aloof Long Feiye
Long Feiye has already resisted the decree, if Grand Concubine Yi exposes this matter to Princess Rong Le, wouldn't she be humiliating herself
If Princess Rong Le made the matter public, it would not only lose the face of Long Feiye, but also the face of Tianning Kingdom;
Taking a ten thousand step back, Princess Rong Le agreed to stop forcing the marriage, will Long Feiye accept this love? Will Emperor Tianhui let people go easily? In the end, it was Long Feiye who was insulted!
Han Yunxi rushed into the peony garden angrily. At this time, Concubine Yi was really writing letters in the study.
Han Yunxi didn't care about that much, and angrily said as soon as she entered the door, "Mother Concubine, don't you want to harm Your Highness!"
Concubine Yi's hand trembled, and she drew a long line of ink on the letter, destroying the letter.
"Mother Concubine, Your Highness will never agree to this matter, just be forced to marry, and ask this person to let go of the marriage? What kind of thing is this?" Han Yunxi said angrily.
Unexpectedly, Grand Concubine Yi put down her brush heavily, and said angrily, "Han Yunxi, what did you just say? Who harmed Feiye? You actually came here to accuse me?"
"Who killed Feiye?"
As Concubine Yi said, she walked out and approached Han Yunxi step by step, "Tell me! Who harmed Feiye?"
The angry Han Yunxi finally calmed down, lowered her eyelids, and fell silent.
Concubine Yi pushed her violently, causing her to take several steps back and almost fell down.
"Han Yunxi, it's all because of you! You shameless woman! If you hadn't come in shamelessly back then, so many things wouldn't have happened today!"
"Han Yunxi, do you know that the emperor will imprison him for the rest of his life, and the emperor is worrying about not having this chance!"
After Concubine Yi finished saying this, she backed away. She took several steps and bumped into the table behind her. With one hand on the table, she frowned with the other, feeling very painful.
She is not a fool, of course she also knows that writing a letter to beg Princess Rong Le is the most stupid thing, but she has no way out.
Now she can't even meet King Qin, and she doesn't know what's going on. If Emperor Tianhui is really determined to imprison King Qin for the rest of his life, then Emperor Tianhui will take further actions.
The power of King Qin will be gradually disintegrated, and the Prince Qin Mansion will gradually lose its status in the royal family.
All of this was unbearable for her.
The first emperor has gone, except for the queen mother and her, all the concubines are either buried or guarding the mausoleum, and the only thing she relies on is this son.
Seeing Concubine Yi, who has always been elegant, dignified and exquisite, look so desperate, Han Yunxi felt an indescribable pain in her heart.
Both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were silent. After a long time, Concubine Yi looked over again and asked calmly, "Han Yunxi, do you have any other options if you don't ask for Princess Rongle?"
This…
Han Yunxi really wanted to answer her, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't answer.
Can she do it
In her previous life, and in this life, she has always disdained any background or family background, most of all she looked down on using her connections to do things. However, at this moment, how much she wished that she had a noble background, had a strong natal family as the backing, and had a network to do things!
Unfortunately, she didn't have anything...
Her natal family still relies on her to support the sky!
Concubine Yi didn't scold Han Yunxi any more, turned around and tore up the letter, smiled slightly, and left.
Han Yunxi came out in a daze, walking aimlessly in the courtyard, but at this moment, Steward Xia ran over in a panic, "My Lady, My Lady!"
Han Yunxi didn't react at all, after Concubine Yi said that, now, apart from Long Feiye's own compromise, what good news can there be? With that guy's temper, how could he compromise
Steward Xia hurriedly ran up to Han Yunxi, "Miss Wangfei, something has happened, something serious has happened, the slaves can't find Madam Taifei, they can only look for you!"
"What happened?" Han Yunxi only raised her spirits.
Unexpectedly, Housekeeper Xia said, "The second wife of the uncle's mansion went back to her natal family to visit relatives during the Lantern Festival. After coming back from the plague, the uncle's mansion has never dared to report the secret isolation. Who knows, the third son of the mansion was also sick yesterday. Said it was infected!"
Han Yunxi was completely refreshed. You must know that the most terrifying thing in ancient times was not war, famine, or flood. The most terrible thing was plague!
In fact, let alone ancient times, even in modern times, infectious diseases make everyone turn pale.
"There is a plague outside the city? Why haven't you heard about such a big thing?" Han Yunxi asked.
"My lord, the second wife of the uncle's mansion lives in Juncheng, far away from the imperial capital. I heard that there is a small village there. There was an epidemic a few years ago, but it was discovered early and the infection was not spread. The court secretly gave it to..."
Steward Xia didn't continue, but only made a "kill" movement, and Han Yunxi immediately understood.
In modern times, people who contract infectious diseases will be quarantined, and even enjoy free professional medical care. They would be quarantined in ancient times, but basically they cannot be saved, and they will only be burned alive. Even if you are not infected, you will not be spared.
This is sad and helpless for the backwardness of medicine. Presumably the village has been reduced to ashes by now.
The second wife will get sick, so it means that the virus has not been completely eradicated, but it is still infected.
"Butler Xia, how did you know about this?" Han Yunxi asked seriously.
"My lord, the third son is the only child of the country's uncle's mansion! Where is the empress's nephew! He is sick, can the paper cover the fire? Everyone from the imperial hospital passed by last night!"
Steward Xia said, took out a few packs of herbs, and said in a low voice, "This is secretly delivered by Imperial Doctor Li. It is made into a medicinal soup, and everyone in the house must take it. Imperial Doctor Li has repeatedly ordered to clean the house." She, keep the ventilation, it’s best not to go out if you don’t have important things to do! You can’t even go to the uncle’s mansion!”
Almost every mansion has a dedicated imperial physician, and imperial physician Li came to report the news, presumably the same for other imperial physicians, the plague cannot be concealed after all.
The plague virus has an incubation period. Everyone's resistance is different, and the time of onset is also different, but basically it will not exceed ten days. Since the plague has spread in the uncle's mansion, it is estimated that the third son will not be alone, and the places the second wife and the third son have visited before, and everyone they have met, may be infected. Ten to one hundred, God knows how many people will get sick in the next few days.
If it is not controlled, the entire imperial capital will be very dangerous. It must be that the Tai Hospital is going crazy at this time.
"Do you know what it is?" Han Yunxi asked seriously.
Housekeeper Xia panicked, "Emperor Li didn't say anything, but the concubine, since it's a plague, it's definitely... It's better to report to the concubine as soon as possible, our family should take precautions early!"
Han Yunxi checked the medicinal materials sent by Li Taiyi, but she couldn't see what happened. After all, she didn't know much about it.
"My concubine is in the backyard, you go."
Han Yunxi didn't think much about it either, she was still immersed in Long Feiye's matter, for her, that was the only big thing.
She hesitated for a while, then told Steward Xia to report a letter secretly to Han's house, and then went to the depths of the garden.
However, things went beyond Han Yunxi's expectations.
A few days later, the Duke's Mansion, Pingbeihou's Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion and several big families, even the palace, reported that someone was infected with the disease. up.
This plague has spread in the imperial capital, and the epidemic has exceeded the control of the Tai Hospital. Even Gu Beiyue is still unable to determine what kind of disease it is. Few dared to go out.
It was also because of the plague that the popularity of King Qin's house arrest naturally weakened. While paying close attention to the movement on the Santu battlefield, Emperor Tianhui was devastated by the plague in the imperial capital. Although Long Feiye didn't let go and give in for a long time, Emperor Tianhui didn't care about him for the time being.
At this time, Emperor Tianhui was resting his forehead in the imperial study and meditating. Before Mr. Xue arrived, he said, "Your Majesty, it's not good! It's not good!"
Emperor Tianhui glared at the door, and saw Eunuch Xue crawling in. Before he could get mad, Eunuch Xue immediately reported, "Your Majesty, a maid in the Empress Dowager's Palace fell ill and died!"
"What!" Emperor Tianhui almost jumped up in shock, and then angrily said, "Call Gu Beiyue over immediately!"
"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Gu is in the Empress Dowager's palace right now." Eunuch Xue reported the truth.
Emperor Tianhui wanted to go there immediately, but Eunuch Xue stopped him, "Your Majesty, absolutely not, Imperial Physician Gu is personally burning medicine for the Kangning Palace to get rid of evil spirits, it is already unclean!"
If there are sick people in a place, it proves that the place is dangerous, but it is related to the safety of the mother, how could Emperor Tianhui not visit, he hurried to Kangning Palace, and asked, "It's so good, how could you get sick? ?”
You know, the few people who got sick in the palace had contacts with the uncle's mansion before, and they were all isolated long ago.
Eunuch Xue hesitated for a moment before he said, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager secretly went to the Uncle's Mansion the day before yesterday and brought a maid there, and the one who got sick is that maid."
The Uncle's Mansion is the Empress Dowager's natal family, in fact it is also the Empress Dowager's natal family, and the Empress is the Empress Dowager's niece, so the third son of the Uncle's Mansion has to call the Queen "Auntie", and the Empress Dowager "Auntie"!
Although she knew that the country's uncle's mansion was the worst place to go, the only child in her natal family was seriously ill and was about to die, the Queen Mother couldn't bear it!
Upon hearing this, Emperor Tianhui was furious, and yelled at Eunuch Xue, "Nonsense! It's just nonsense!"
When Emperor Hui of the Tiantian arrived at Kangning Palace, Gu Beiyue seemed to be talking to the Empress Dowager, but when the Emperor came in, Gu Beiyue stopped talking, while the Empress Dowager frowned and showed embarrassment.
