Chapter 216: Exposing the Corpse in the Wilderness
Because Su Xubai was infected with the plague, although Xie Chengyin didn't say anything, the responsibilities on the shoulders of the imperial doctors became heavier. After all, Su Xubai was not an ordinary person. If he died here, the Marquis of Wuchang might not
Let them go.
When Meng Shaoqing arrived at the camp for the victims, it was late at night and everyone in the camp was already asleep. He walked into the hood, looked at Su Xubai lying there, and gently kicked the bed.
Su Xubai was startled. When he woke up and saw Meng Shaoqing, his face was a little ugly: "You're up so late at night, what are you doing here?"
"Let's see if you're burned to death!" Meng Shaoqing looked at Su Xubai's face, and then said, "Look at you, you're so alive, you won't die in a short time!"
"What good will it do you if I die?" Su Xubai couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"The prince is going to interrogate Mr. Hu and Mr. Li tomorrow!" Meng Shaoqing looked at Su Xubai and said suddenly.
Su Xubai's face changed slightly: "Why are you suddenly preparing for interrogation at this time? Didn't you just ignore it before?"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince saw that account book." Meng Shaoqing said calmly, "You went through all the trouble to find that account book, didn't you just want him to see it? So, I handed the account book to him with my own hands.
.”
Su Xubai said nothing.
"In order to bring down Prime Minister Hao, do you still think it's a good deal to put yourself in this predicament?" Meng Shaoqing crossed his arms and looked at Su Xubai.
Su Xubai laughed weakly: "Someone will have to overthrow him. It is impossible to let his family dominate. He has already extended his hands to the military. No matter how hard he goes to serve as soldiers, they will lose their food."
If you eat it, you don’t care and I don’t care. Aren’t the poor people the ones who suffer in the end?”
"You say it so righteously, but it's just to avenge that Miss Chun of yours!" Meng Shaoqing laughed, "By the way, I cried like a spring today."
Su Xubai's eyes moved slightly, and then he stood up suddenly: "Why did you bully her? She didn't offend you in any way? What did you do to make her cry?"
"Her life is not as easy as ours during this period. It is also very hard to take care of the injured people every day. Today, a patient she has been taking care of choked to death on her own vomit because she refused to amputate her legs.
I tried all my methods but couldn't save him!" Meng Shaoqing stood there with his head lowered, looking a little helpless.
Su Xubai listened to Meng Shaoqing's words without interrupting, but just listened quietly.
"The patient she worked so hard to take care of died, and she knew you were infected with the plague. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was sad, but she didn't say a word, she just shed a few tears and then she did it.
It's happened!" Meng Shaoqing sighed, "You and I both know that being depressed is very hurtful!"
"So you deliberately make people cry?" Su Xubai raised his eyebrows, "Meng Shaoqing, why have you always had the same temperament since you were a child? Do you know that it takes a long time to calm down your daughter who makes her cry?"
"Then you should fight for your breath, cure the disease quickly, and then go and coax your little lady." Meng Shaoqing laughed, "By the way, Su Xubai, your little lady doesn't have any feelings for you.
, at least I can see that she is really worried about you, so don’t think about things that are not there, have a good rest and take good treatment."
Su Xubai looked at Meng Shaoqing and said nothing for a long time.
Meng Shaoqing didn't want to stay in this place for a long time. After all, he could always hear the wailing outside one after another. Sickness was often the most tormenting thing.
Su Xubai watched Meng Shaoqing leave. Just when he was about to go out, Su Xubai suddenly said: "If you have nothing to do, don't come here. I can take care of the entire camp here. I have already contracted the disease."
, you can’t let anything happen to you again, one of us must come back alive!"
Meng Shaoqing stopped and looked back: "We can go back how we came. Don't expect me to collect your body. If you don't want the body to be exposed in the wilderness, you should cure the disease as soon as possible!"
Su Xubai waved his hand: "I know, get out of here, get out of here quickly, I'm upset!"
Meng Shaoqing left without saying anything more.
Chengchun slept very well and slept until the next morning. When she got up, she saw Hongdou bringing breakfast. She quickly got up: "Why didn't you call me? Just let me sleep.
?”
"The Crown Prince said, don't let me call you, let the lady have a good sleep." Hongdou said quickly, "The Crown Prince has already arranged for people to take care of them, whether in the front hall or the backyard, there is no need for them to take care of them.
My wife, please run up and down so hard again."
Chengchun didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long time, he asked: "Where's the peony?"
"It's time to rest too!" Hongdou said quickly, "My wife has been working hard these past few days, and her complexion has become worse. It's time to take a good rest."
"It's so busy and chaotic outside, how can you have the nerve to rest!" Cheng Chun looked at the porridge in front of him and let out a long sigh, "I don't know what's going on with Su Xubai!"
"Islam came early in the morning and asked me to tell my wife that I must remember to cook a bowl of West Lake beef soup today. I have been thinking about it for several days!" Hongdou sat down in front of Chengchun, "
Madam, we have done what we should do, and it’s time to retire after our success. Now that there are His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince, we don’t have to worry about running up and down on our own, and we might even cause trouble for them!”
Chengchun listened, although he felt a little uncomfortable, but he didn't insist anymore. At that time, they would arrange these people in the house because they didn't know what to do. Now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, let them
It is not a good thing to continue to live in the mansion, and many people's injuries have been mostly healed. It is indeed not good to continue to live in the mansion.
"Since he said he wanted to eat beef soup, wait a while and you go look for beef." Cheng Chun picked up the spoon and said, "Let's make some more snacks by the way. Su Xubai is picky, and it's inevitable that there will be something in the camp."
It will be a bit unaccustomed to it.”
Seeing that Chengchun didn't insist on asking for help, Hongdou breathed a long sigh of relief and quickly said with a smile: "Okay, I'll go find some fresh beef later."
Chengchun sat there and ate his breakfast in small bites. When he was halfway through the meal, Shaoyao came over in a hurry: "Ah Chun, Ah Chun!"
Chengchun stood up quickly: "What's wrong, Sister Shaoyao?"
"Then, that gentleman wants to interrogate Hu Sheng, let me go..." Shaoyao grabbed Cheng Chun's hand.
