On the way back, Shen Qingwan was still a little worried about the sick man. She didn't know if he would get better completely. She couldn't help but blame herself for only focusing on flood control and disaster relief and not thinking about the plague.
"You, go and check on that man and see how he is doing?" Worried, Shen Qingwan stopped and spoke to a guard behind her.
The guards knew that Shen Qingwan was kind-hearted and nodded in agreement, and then Shen Qingwan continued to go down the mountain. Li Jieyu followed behind and watched from a distance, but it was obvious that she had a little more disdain.
"Your Majesty, why don't you find a doctor? This plague is no small matter." After returning to the yard, Lianyun spoke to Shen Qingwan with concern. She could see that Li Jieyu did it on purpose, but what she was most worried about was her majesty's health.
"Nothing. It's not like I haven't been out before." Shen Qingwan shook her head. She had come into contact with the victims and Li Chaoyang before, and nothing had happened.
Logically, there shouldn't be any problem this time, and she has other things to do now. She doesn't know how many people in Jiangnan have been infected with the plague that she doesn't know about, and she must find out.
"Lianyun, stop watching here and go out." She felt a little amused by Lianyun's look, so she simply drove him out. She knew Lianyun cared about her, but she cared about the people.
She originally thought that the flood had been brought under control and that there was a cure for the plague, so she could rest assured. But when she went out today, she realized that there were still victims she didn't know about.
Lianyun was a bit bored after being kicked out by Shen Qingwan. There were not as many rules here as in the palace. On weekdays, apart from serving Shen Qingwan, she spent her time by herself, but today she was a bit bored.
"It would be better to go buy some of my queen's favorite food." Lian Yun pouted her lips, obviously helpless about Shen Qingwan kicking her out.
The people outside saw that it was Shen Qingwan's maid, and they all came over, wanting Lianyun to take the things they had prepared back. In their eyes, Shen Qingwan was the Bodhisattva Guanyin.
But Lianyun couldn't accept it, as the Empress had instructed.
"Please don't do this, I can't accept it." Lianyun was a little surprised, but still refused. She was happy that others liked her master, but there were rules.
"It's okay, just say you bought it." The people did not give up and kept persuading Lianyun, even kneeling on the ground. Lianyun had no choice but to pick a few things from everyone's things, after all, they were all their gifts. She just hoped that her queen would not scold her.
Back in the courtyard, Lianyun was still sitting outside, bored and looking at the closed door. I don't know what the queen is doing now. She only cares about the people and doesn't care about her own body at all. While waiting, Lianyun actually fell asleep and woke up several hours later.
"Empress, please don't stay in there all the time. Come out and eat something." Lianyun felt that a lot of time had passed and was a little worried, so she went to call Shen Qingwan, but she didn't hear her reply.
"My queen?" Lianyun suddenly felt a little panicked and shouted, then rushed into the room. Shen Qingwan fainted beside the table, and Lianyun hurried over to help her up.
When she touched Shen Qingwan, she found that she was terribly hot. Could it be that she was really infected with the plague? Lianyun was a little scared, but she still didn't let go of Shen Qingwan. Instead, she carried her to the bed and asked someone to notify Fu Yuheng.
"What's going on? Why did she suddenly have a fever?" The servant only said that Shen Qingwan was sick, but did not say why, so Fu Yuheng was very anxious.
Li Jieyu also heard the news and rushed over. When she saw Shen Qingwan's appearance, she understood what was going on and looked at her with gloating.
Is it true that female Bodhisattvas can also get sick
"Your Majesty, the Queen is..." Lianyun hesitated whether to tell him this, because if Shen Qingwan's illness was confirmed, she would definitely have to be isolated.
"Your Majesty, my sister must have been infected with the plague." Li Jieyu spoke before Lianyun could. In front of Fu Yuheng's shocked eyes, she told him what happened today, but she covered up the fact that she deliberately bumped into Shen Qingwan.
It's true that Shen Qingwan wanted to save people, but it was a pity that she also got herself involved, which was really stupid.
Upon hearing this, Fu Yuheng looked at Shen Qingwan in surprise, his eyes full of heartache.
Is it because of something like this
“Your Majesty, please let the imperial physician come to treat my sister. We can just go out and wait. After all, if it is really a plague and Your Majesty is infected... Besides, we will disturb the doctor if we stay here.” Li Jieyu frowned, with worry in her eyes as if she was really afraid of disturbing the treatment.
Lianyun followed him out, glaring at Li Jieyu. Even if this woman had deliberately bumped into her master, it was really abominable that she was still pretending to be indifferent.
“I really hope that my sister is okay. If at that time... I had been more careful..." Li Jieyu simply acted out her role to the end, crying towards the room.
Fu Yuheng felt annoyed when he heard this. He glanced at her but ignored her.
When the imperial physician arrived, he came up with news that shocked everyone even more.
"Your Majesty, the Queen is not only suffering from the plague, but also poisoned."
This was something they never expected.
Fu Yuheng's face turned pale when he heard this, and the first person he thought of was the man in the temple. With anger on his face, he asked the guards to catch the man. The man was treated and nothing happened, but he smiled bitterly.
"What's going on? Tell me clearly! Who are you?" Staring at the man, Fu Yuheng really wanted to strangle him to death. Shen Qingwan was kind enough to save him, but he actually repaid her with hatred.
The man looked at Fu Yuheng without saying a word. He was already a dying man, so what difference would it make whether he said anything or not? He raised his eyes slightly and looked towards the door, and opened his mouth slightly, as if to say sorry.
"How dare you! Take him to the prison and torture him severely." Fu Yuheng, angered by the man's attitude, immediately ordered someone to take the man to the prison. He was not a person who liked to torture, but for Shen Qingwan, he could give up these principles.
The guards also listened to Fu Yuheng's words and wanted to take him away for torture, but the man suddenly smiled and looked at Fu Yuheng with a bit of determination in his eyes. He actually committed suicide by taking poison!
“Your Majesty… Your Majesty…” The expression of the guard holding him was hard to read, but there was a hint of panic in it.
“Damn it… That’s all…” Fu Yuheng clenched his fists and stared at the man with red eyes.
"How dare you! Who are you?" He felt like he was going crazy and couldn't help yelling. Sun Ning watched from the side and didn't dare to go over to persuade him. He had never seen him like this before.
Shen Qingwan is now lying in isolation in the room, and her condition is getting worse, and no one has found the antidote yet.
What should I do
