The raindrops jumped and the mud splashed.
People hurried in and out of Zhaosin Temple, the canopy had been set up, and the strong bitter taste of the herbs was everywhere, and the guards guarding the stove covered their mouths and noses with towels.
Qi Huilian wrapped his head in a cloth and distributed the medicinal soup with Ji Gang. Seeing that the unconscious man was talking vaguely, he looked at it for a while.
Ji Gang neatly packed the bowl and saw that Taifu was not moving, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
"This is Dancheng disease," Qi Huilian pushed aside the patient's collar, "The rash will crawl on the body, and it is unbearable, and it is contagious."
Ji Gang said, "Is it easy to cure?"
Qi Hui's scalp was itchy, he rubbed a few hands, and said, "Easy to cure, but trouble. The official trench must continue to be dug, but who knows if anyone who is sick has spit in the water or urinated? I went up, but I didn't notice it myself, and if I touched others next to each other, I would have to pour another large piece."
"Criminalism," Ji Gang looked under the canopy, "what should we do then?"
"What should I do..." Qi Huilian suddenly pulled a high cloth to cover his face, looked at the people coming to the door of Zhaosin Temple, and whispered, "It's all up to fate, first of all, we must stabilize people's hearts, and definitely can't be chaotic, and then put all the large and small pharmacies in Qidu. When they are brought together, the patients must be separated.”
"We can't stay too long," Ji Gang put down the bowl, "Someone will do this, I'll tell Chuan'er to go."
"Lan Zhou can't leave," Qi Huilian said. "He's the person in charge. Can you expect Han Cheng to come out at this juncture? It's too late for them to hide."
"No way!" Ji Gang suddenly changed color, "He is a fifth-rank stunner now, and he doesn't even have the qualifications to go to the fourth-rank court. How can he be allowed to do it? This is such a big thing, and some people are more powerful than him!"
"Who are you arguing with?" Qi Hui slammed the bowl, "If Han Cheng puts him here in the name of experience, you can't do anything about it! When the illness comes together, which official would prefer to come down? Even Hai Liangyi can't come. Besides, Lan Zhou can't leave, this opportunity is a rare opportunity, if he succeeds, he can go up again! Up—"
Ji Gang suddenly pushed him away and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
Qi Hui fell to the ground, got up again, and said, "If you don't follow the trend at the moment, what are you waiting for!" He also got angry, "This is the time when people are stepping on people, and he has to do it if he doesn't! You understand No?"
"I don't understand," Ji Gang sullenly said, "I want to tell him to go, I have to take him away!"
After Ji Gang finished speaking, he went inside, and Qiao Tianya came out head-on, blocking his way.
"The people of Zhaosin Temple will be evacuated outside, and only the sick can be kept inside. Master, please don't go in again." Qiao Tianya smiled, "Sir's notes have been moved to the old house, and the master asked me to rent it for the two of you on Shenwu Street. A small building, next to the palace gate, cannot be flooded."
"Get out of the way!" Ji Gang said, "These are all patients, how can Chuan'er stay for so long? I have to tell him!"
Qiao Tianya smiled and said sternly: "Master, why bother me? Since the master has ordered me like this, there is absolutely no reason to change. There are all patients here. If you stay here, the master is also worried. For his filial piety, you and I I'll go."
Ji Gang heard the strong coughing, and became even more anxious. He grabbed Qiao Tianya's arm and pushed it back straightly. Qiao Tianya had long expected that he was going to make a move, and after taking this move, half of his arms were numb, but his feet were faster, and his entire body was blocking Ji Gang.
"Master!" Qiao Tianya said in a low voice, "You keep calm! The master has arranged it like this, so of course there is a countermeasure. I have to come back later, let's go early, and the master will return early, okay? So many pairs of eyes Look, can you really take him away? Where?"
Where did this sound go to make Ji Gang calm down. He looked inside for a while, then waved his sleeves again and pointed at Qi Huilian tremblingly, without saying a word in the end.

Shen Zechuan sat on the bench and closed his eyes to rest. There was a buzzing sound in his ears, and he was dizzy at the moment, but his face was watertight. After a long while listening to someone calling him, Shen Zechuan opened his eyes. As soon as he opened his eyes, his tired expression disappeared.
The official from the Ministry of Household Affairs said: "Lord Zhenfu, the supply of herbs is not enough, what shall we do tomorrow?"
"It's a big deal, and the herbal medicine will definitely not be broken." Shen Zechuan put on his cloak, "It's time for the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital to arrive, and he will bring the news of the preparation of the herbal medicine together. You ask people to continue decoction, don't save it."
The official responded.
Shen Zechuan saw his terrified expression, and said, "Are you an official of which department of the Ministry of Households?"
The official said quickly: "A lowly post is not an official, but an official in charge of records."
"It's an errand for the people, the size is the same." Shen Zechuan stretched out his hand, pinched his eyebrows for a moment, and asked, "What's your name?"
"The humble name is Liang Luoshan."
"The matter of inspecting herbal medicines will be taken over by you tomorrow morning, no matter how big or small." Shen Zechuan said, "I guess the Imperial Army should have already gone to adjust herbal medicines. Time is tight, and they must not be able to wait for the notes in the palace, so the herbal medicines for the past few days. It has to be remembered clearly.”
He stopped suddenly and paused for a while.
"Go and rest, pay attention to your body these days, and report immediately if you feel unwell."
Liang Maoshan resigned, and as soon as the curtain fell, Shen Zechuan felt his forehead burning hot.
Ge Qingqing came in after him, was startled, stepped forward and whispered, "Zhenfu..."
Shen Zechuan said calmly, "When did Xi Hongxuan get the rash?"
"Two hours after taking the medicine," Ge Qingqing said, "the rash started to climb up from the legs."
"I have a rash and then a fever," Shen Zechuan said soberly. "The symptoms don't match, so it shouldn't be an epidemic, but just in case, I have to drink that medicine too."
Ge Qingqing was relieved a little and said, "Fortunately, I didn't take leave this morning!"
The emperor was infected with a disease, which imperial doctor dared to say that he was infected by a ghost? I can only find excuses to prevaricate and say it is an accidental infection. But who can pass the disease to the emperor? Either a personal eunuch or a bodyguard who often walks in front of the imperial court. Shen Zechuan is now listed as acting in front of the royal family. If he takes leave this morning, he will be a pinch afterward. Once eczema is said to be a rash, he will no longer be eligible to stay in front of the royal family. Shen Zechuan still carried the accusation of Shen Wei on his back, and it was really difficult for him to get up again when he went down.
Even Shen Zechuan found it hard to breathe at this moment. Compared with conspiracy and tricks, such unpredictable genius is impossible to guard against. If he was not so cautious, he would have fallen into the palm of others at this moment, and life and death were just a matter of words.
Seeing that he closed his eyes, Ge Qingqing backed out.
Shen Zechuan listened to the sound of the rain, but his thoughts drifted away. The muddy old memories followed with the sound of the rain, and he frowned in weariness.
He neither likes snowy days nor rainy days. The wet and cold will make him think of Chashi Tiankeng, Ji Mu, and all the days when he knelt down and was slaughtered by others, and the wet and cold will make him uneasy, gloomy, and full of cold patience and coldness under his skin. irritable.
Shen Zechuan squinted against the wall for a while, but the more he squinted, the more drowsy he actually fell asleep in this corner.
It was very late when Xiao Chiye arrived at Zhaosin Temple. He entered Zhaosin Temple with the imperial doctor who came over. Ding Tao frowned behind him because he missed Shen Zechuan because he didn't find Shen Zechuan.
Xiao Chiye asked Jin Yiwei, who was decocting the medicine: "Where is Zhenfu? I'll find him!"
Jin Yiwei covered half of his face, handed him a bowl of medicine, and said, "Everyone who is looking for it must drink the medicine first. Governor, you have to go into the water for the banned army, be careful!"
Xiao Chiye was bored with the medicine.
Jin Yiwei got up and shouted to the under the canopy: "Brother Qing! Is Brother Qing there? Where is our Zhenfu? You should inform and say Governor Xiao is looking for him."
Ge Qingqing was lying on the stool and was sleeping. Hearing the sound, he sat up, put on his clothes, and walked over. Seeing Xiao Chiye, he said, "Zhenfu is resting inside... If you haven't slept all night, the governor should also rest. The Eighth Battalion said that they are going to guard the city gate. We will be the only ones to dig this unfinished ditch tomorrow."
"Physical work should naturally be done by able-bodied people." Xiao Chiye said as he walked, "Keep an eye on the door and don't ask people from outside to come in."
Xiao Chiye lifted the curtain and went in, but there was no light inside. He swept around and found no one, and after walking a few steps, he saw Shen Zechuan leaning against the wall.
Xiao Chiye was dirty, he took off his shirt, sat next to Shen Zechuan, and poured out the water in his boots. It was cold in the room, he put on his boots again, went out again, borrowed a fire from the stove, and went in to find a copper pot to make a fire.
Shen Zechuan opened his eyes and said, "Have you finished digging Donglong Street?"
"Well." Xiao Chiye set the fire on fire, "Why don't you sleep on the bed?"
"Squint for a while," Shen Zechuan said, "you can't get up when you lie down."
Xiao Chiye moved the basin to the bed and said, "Come up and sleep, I'll call you later."
Shen Zechuan was not polite, he lay down, and Xiao Chiye hugged him from behind, pressing his face against his cheek. Shen Zechuan could still hear Xiao Chiye talking in a low voice at first, but it was blurred behind.
Xiao Chiye listened to Shen Zechuan's deep breathing before reaching out to unbutton his collar, looking at the rash carefully.
It's different from Xi Hongxuan's.
Xiao Chiye buttoned his clothes again, and fell asleep with him in his arms.
I don't know how long I slept, but Xiao Chiye felt that his arms were very hot. When he half-opened his eyes, his consciousness was still chaotic. When he saw the person in his arms, he immediately woke up.
Shen Zechuan was on fire, sweat soaking his temples. Xiao Chiye touched him, and he was hot everywhere.
Xiao Chiye sat up suddenly and called, "Lanzhou, Lanzhou?"
Shen Zechuan was sweating, his brows were furrowed, his breathing was slightly short, he was half awake by Xiao Chiye and said, "Separation...Separation...This disease can be contracted without being exposed to water."
Xiao Chiye wrapped him in a cloak and shouted, "Chenyang, call an imperial physician!"
Chen Yang, who was dozing off against the wall, immediately woke up, got up and jumped down the steps, got into the canopy, and pulled the imperial physician to the door.
The Imperial Physician lifted his cloak a little, looked at it for a while, and said in a hurry, "Professor, Zhenfu has contracted a disease! I think this disease is caused by the wind first..."
Xiao Chiye clasped the imperial doctor's arm. He stared at the imperial doctor and said in a cold voice, "What is Zhenfu?"
The imperial physician panicked and changed his tune: "Yes... it took a lot of hard work... I fell ill..."
"Yes, Zhenfu fell ill here today," Xiao Chiye tightened his fingers, "he was not sick before."
The imperial doctor said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes..."
"The medicines of Qidu are all here. I know that the lord is a master of Xinglin," Xiao Chiye suddenly softened his tone, "Can you cure it."
The imperial physician looked into Xiao Chiye's eyes, his legs and feet softened, he supported the edge of the bed, nodded in a panic, and said, "It can be cured, it can be cured..."
