Chapter 218 Catastrophe is coming
Chapter 218: A disaster is coming
Qi Ning looked solemn along the way. After returning to the Marquis' Mansion, he first found Gu Qinghan.
Gu Qinghan has not been idle these days. Last time he went to the old house, there was a huge change. Chief Executive Qi Hong is still recuperating in Jingzhou City, and he is old. In addition, he has encountered major changes, and it is difficult for him to be in charge of the old house manager, both physically and energy.
The foundation of the Jinyi Marquis Mansion is in Jiangling, and the bloodline that will continue to be maintained also comes from the fief.
Gu Qinghan naturally knew that after the last incident, the fiefdom would naturally be reorganized, and the old house would also choose a supervisor to manage all the affairs of the fiefdom.
The Jinyi Hou Mansion is actually not short of talents who can do things, and there are many capable people on the fiefdom. Gu Qinghan has been preparing to select a new chief executive to manage the fiefdom these days, and in addition, she has to reorganize the previous accounts.
The judge with the pseudonym Zhao Yuan has been in the old house for three years and has controlled the large and small accounts of the old house. It is in chaos. It is not easy to sort it out now.
When Qi Ning found Gu Qinghan, Gu Qinghan was still in the account office. When he saw Qi Ning coming over hurriedly, he was a little surprised and asked, "Why are you back so soon?"
When Qi Ning went to Qinhuai River, she naturally knew that last time she knew from Qi Ning that Zhuo Xian'er's miserable and miserable situation, she felt sympathy and allowed Qi Ning to go to Qinhuai River to take care of her occasionally. However, when Qi Ning was really going, she always felt a little uncomfortable. At this time, she saw Qi Ning coming back early, for some reason, but she felt a little happy.
Along the way, what Qi Ning was most worried about was that the disease also occurred in the Jinyi Hou Mansion.
What happened on the pleasure boat tonight shocked Qi Ning. On the way back, he kept thinking about it, but he also got some clues.
The first time I saw this symptom was in Jishitang. At that time, two beggars were seeking medical treatment in Jishitang, but they were turned away because they had no money to see a doctor. Qi Ning came forward to solve the problem. At that time, he saw that the patient had dense erythema on his arm, and some of the erythema had blisters.
Although Qi Ning felt that the disease was not serious at that time, she didn't think much about it.
But today I saw Xu Gan getting sick on the pleasure boat. The situation was very similar to the Beggar Gang disciple I saw last night. I knew that if nothing unexpected happened, the Beggar Gang disciple I saw last night should have suffered from the same disease.
There is no doubt that a strange disease was spreading silently in the capital at this time. This disease is extremely contagious, which can be seen from the number of people infected on the pleasure boat.
If Qi Ning hadn't happened to see it on the pleasure boat tonight, he might not have noticed that such a disease was spreading.
At this time, Qi Ning had no idea how far the disease was now, and he didn't know how many people were infected.
However, he could vaguely judge that this infectious disease is extremely threatening and can even make people lose their minds and become crazy and violent.
Gu Qinghan saw Qi Ning's serious expression and was a little strange. She only saw Qi Ning walking straight to her, stretching out her hand, and holding her a jade-like wrist in her hand.
Gu Qinghan's pretty face changed drastically and she said in a lost voice: "What are you...what are you doing?" I never expected that Qi Ning was so bold.
Qi Ning said in a deep voice: "Don't move!"
"You... are so arrogant!" Gu Qinghan saw him grabbing his wrist and lifting up his sleeve with his other hand, and was shocked and angry: "Are you crazy? Stop it." After struggling for a few times, he trembled and angry, his pretty face was angry. He thought it was Qi Ning's drunkenness, but when he saw that there was no alcohol on his face and no alcohol on his body, he was shocked and thought to himself that this kid was going to get fainted?
Gu Qinghan is a veteran and is naturally extremely sensitive to men and women's affairs. She naturally realized that Qi Ning's feelings for her are no longer the same as before, and no longer just a simple relationship between her aunt and nephew. Although Qi Ning is very careful, she still shows the feelings of men towards women from time to time.
Gu Qinghan was originally just a care for Qi Ning, but for some reason, the feelings that Qi Ning occasionally showed these days made Gu Qinghan's heart ripples sometimes appear in her heart. Of course, she knew that this feeling must not spread, so she was as careful as she had contact with Qi Ning compared to the past.
Although she knew that Qi Ning had some thoughts about her, she was usually abide by the rules and politely and did not make too overwhelming actions, which also made Gu Qinghan feel a little relieved. She thought that if Qi Ning really had some thoughts about her, it would be the youthful sensation of young people, and it was not impossible to fully understand.
As long as Qi Ning can stick to the bottom line and don’t go too far, this feeling will gradually disappear after getting married in the future and having a wife.
But now when Qi Ning entered the door, he grabbed his wrist and wanted to pull his sleeves. Gu Qinghan was shocked and knew that he would never yell at this time and let others see it.
She knew Qi Ning's feelings for her, but the rest of the mansion were ignorant. If someone saw Qi Ning's appearance, the consequences would be unimaginable.
But she also knew that she could not really let Qi Ning succeed, so although Qi Ning just pulled her sleeve, she shook her arms to resist, her pretty face showed anger and said, "Let go quickly, don't let go, I... am really angry? I'm going to be seen by others."
Qi Ning was stunned and suddenly realized that she had lost her composure because she was too worried. No wonder Gu Qinghan resisted so much and hurriedly said, "Sanniang, don't move, I'm taking a doctor!"
"Take a doctor?" Gu Qinghan was stunned and paused. As soon as this happened, Qi Ning had already pulled open her sleeve.
Under the sleeve was a pink jade arm that was as bright as frost and snow, which was crystal clear and moist, and extremely tender. Qi Ning took a look through the light and saw that the white jade on his arm was flawless and there was no flaw. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Qinghan's skin is smooth and greasy. As long as there is a trace of spots or flaws, you can see it at a glance.
He breathed a sigh of relief, then let go of his hand, took two steps back, sat down on a chair next to him, and murmured: "It's okay, it's okay!"
Gu Qinghan was stunned for a moment, not knowing why, she lowered her head and saw her pink jade arms shining with dazzling white light under the light. She hurriedly pulled off her sleeves, frowned, stared at Qi Ning, and said angrily: "What are you going to do? You...you are so bold."
Seeing that Gu Qinghan's hands were flawless, Qi Ning felt relieved and didn't care about Gu Qinghan's tone. He just frowned and said, "Sanniang, you put down your accounts first. There is another thing we must do right away."
Seeing Qi Ning's calm expression, Gu Qinghan didn't seem to be coming to bully her frivolously. She vaguely felt that she was indeed a misunderstanding. She took a step forward and asked softly: "Ning'er, is there something wrong...?"
Qi Ning nodded without hiding it. He briefly told Gu Qinghan about seeing someone getting sick on the pleasure boat. As for almost killing Zhuo Xian'er, of course he didn't dare to mention it.
Only then did Gu Qinghan understand why Qi Ning suddenly lost her composure today, but her heart felt warm. She knew that this kid had to open her sleeves as soon as he came in, not to take advantage of him, but to determine whether he was infected at the first time, which shows how important his position in his heart is.
It seems that I am a villain who judges a gentleman. When I think of myself, I suspect that Qi Ning is going to be a ill-telling person. I feel a little apologized, but my cheeks are a little hot. I think that Ning'er doesn't have this meaning, but I can't let it go, so my voice softens and asks: "Ning'er, you said there is a disease spreading. Could it be that there is a plague in the capital?"
"Plague?" Qi Ning looked at Gu Qinghan with a stern expression.
Gu Qinghan said: "I heard that once a plague occurs, it will spread everywhere, and even say a word to the patient, it may be infected, let alone contact each other." Xiu brows frowned and said worriedly, "But how could a plague suddenly occur in the capital?"
"The two most important things now are: the first thing to control the disease and continue to spread, and the second thing is to quickly find a way to treat this disease." Qi Ning said: "Sanniang, I have seen people who are sick, which are very scary. Once infected, the disease will occur very quickly and will break out in just a few days."
"But how can this disease be controlled?" Gu Qinghan frowned and realized the seriousness of the problem: "We don't know who started the disease and how it spreads, and we don't know how many people are infected now. Even if we want to control it, we have no way to start. There are already people in the Qinhuai River, and there are so many people coming and going there every day. I am only worried that people in the streets and alleys of the capital have been infected."
Qi Ning smiled bitterly and said, "That's true, the most terrifying thing is that the court has not yet discovered this. Of course, the sooner this disease is controlled, the better. I have asked Duan Canghai to go to the Shenhou Mansion to inform this matter." He stood up and said, "Sanniang, hurry up and summon all the people in the mansion to check whether anyone has been infected, especially those who have left the Marquis' Mansion recently. Check carefully. If someone is really infected, I will isolate it immediately."
"Okay, I'll do it now." Gu Qinghan knew that the situation was urgent and hurriedly said: "Ning'er, you don't want to go out for the time being."
Qi Ning smiled gently and said, "Sanniang, don't worry about me, there will be no problem." She sighed, "I just hope to survive this disaster safely." She turned around and was about to leave. Gu Qinghan hurriedly shouted, "Where are you going?"
"I'll go find Miss Tang." Qi Ning turned around and said, "Miss Tang is skilled in medical skills, and is not comparable to those ordinary doctors. I want to inform her of this matter to see if she can deal with it."
Only then did Gu Qinghan remember that there was a Tang Nuo in the Hou Mansion.
Although Tang Nuo goes to Yong'an Hall every day, he still lives in the Marquis' Mansion at night. The Jinyi Marquis' Mansion has many courtyards, so it is easy to arrange a separate yard for Tang Nuo.
"Yes, Miss Tang will come back every day before dark these two days, but she won't come out when she returns to the yard." Gu Qinghan said: "Send someone to treat her to dinner, and she just let her put it in her room. I heard that she has been sleeping very late these two nights, and the lights are still lit in the room in the middle of the night. Ning'er, see if Miss Tang is not used to life in Beijing?"
