Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen
Chapter 74: The trouble with red monkeys, the emergence of epidemics
Liu Qi responded, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Di Manli knows martial arts, so Liu Qi personally goes to capture her.
As he expected, Di Manli directly resisted.
Liu Qi started fighting with her in the room, and the guards rushed in to arrest Di Manli.
Seeing her young lady fighting with the guards, Yingchun was extremely anxious:
"Miss, please stop fighting. This is in the Prince Chu's mansion. This is the prince's order. Even if we fight, the prince will not let go. Calm down. We have never done this. Don't disobey the prince. Calm down."
How could Di Manli remain calm?
She knew martial arts, but she was not the best. After more than ten moves, she was captured by Liu Qi and the guards. Xie Yan didn't even look at her, and Liu Qi took her away directly.
Yingchun was also taken away, and peace returned to the room.
Feng Shuyao's heart was always hanging.
She didn't expect Di Manli to be so stubborn that she dared to resist with force in front of Xie Yan. If she knew that the poison and the doll were framed by her, she would definitely beat her to death without mercy.
Lengyuan is the most remote and coldest courtyard in the Prince of Chu's Mansion, like a cold palace. In this way, Di Manli was locked up.
The next day.
Xie Yan left the city early in the morning and met Li Gu at the foot of Yue Mountain.
Li Gu received news that a hunter in Pingxi Village at the foot of Yue Mountain had seen red-branched macaques in the mountains.
She and the King of Chu agreed to start entering the mountains from here.
The two arrived at Pingxi Village and found the monkey hunter waiting for them.
The hunter's name was Acan. When he saw the high-ranking officials from the capital bringing so many people to ask him questions, his weak and pale face looked even worse.
Li Gu said, "Ah Can, this is His Royal Highness the King of Chu. Which hill did you see the red-mortar monkey on? Take us there."
Ah Can knelt down and trembled, saluting Xie Yan: "I pay my respects to His Majesty the King of Chu."
Xie Yan waved his hand and said, “Let’s go into the mountains.”
Achan tried to get up, but he couldn't hold on and fell down.
Li Gu saw that something was wrong with him and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Ah Chan took a few breaths, with cold sweat on his forehead, and said in a hoarse voice: "I'm fine."
He doesn't look like he's fine.
Li Gu's eyes turned cold. "Are you sick or were you bitten by something? Were you scratched or bitten by the monkey when you found it?"
Her question was somewhat urgent, and Ah Chan did not dare to lie:
"Miss, how do you know? Three days ago, when I encountered a red-branched monkey in the mountains, I saw that its fur was unusual and its appearance was strange. I thought it was a rare species and wanted to capture it alive and sell it for a good price. But when I attacked it, its teeth accidentally scratched my leg and it bled a little."
Achan makes a living by hunting, and it is common for him to be scratched by prey. He usually finds some herbs to apply to the wounds, and the wounds will heal after a few days.
But this time he was scratched by the monkey. After applying herbal medicine for three days, not only did the wound not improve, but it gradually grew larger. He even became increasingly tired, felt anxious and short of breath, and had difficulty breathing. At the same time, he also had tinnitus, blurred vision, and hallucinations, which made him extremely painful.
After hearing what he said, Li Gu's expression changed instantly, and she said to Xie Yan:
“Your Highness, the situation has changed. Please have everyone quarantine all the villagers in Pingxi Village and do not allow anyone to leave the village.
Soldiers, remember to cover your mouth and nose when you are in quarantine, and do not come into contact with the villagers' blood, saliva or scratches. The villagers may have been infected with a large-scale epidemic. Your Highness, please send someone to go immediately."
Hearing the words "large-scale epidemic", Xie Yan quickly realized the seriousness of the matter.
The order went down: "Teams two and three, do as the fairy lady said."
Li Gu's eyes were solemn. The reason why her senior brother did not come to the capital this time was because the red-mortar monkey bit someone from Baihua Valley when he was being taken away.
The saliva of the red-eared macaque contains a highly contagious toxin. Once someone is bitten, others who come into contact with the patient are also likely to be infected.
Someone in Baihua Valley had medicine and quickly brought the condition under control.
Now that there are patients bitten in Pingxi Village, I'm afraid things are going to become very tricky.
Because the patients bitten in Baihua Valley received effective treatment in the early stages of the disease, we have no idea what they will become in the later stages of the disease.
It has been three days since the hunter was bitten, and it is past the best time to suppress the spread of the toxin...
Just when Li Gu wanted the hunter to lie down so that she could check on him, A Chan, who was originally kneeling, could not hold on and fell to the ground.
He whimpered in pain, his whole body twitching, blood gradually spitting out of his mouth, and then blood flowed from his eyes. He covered his head tightly and begged incoherently:
"Fairy, save me, fairy, save me..."
He was already spurting out blood, and Li Gu had no protection at all and didn't dare to touch him.
Moreover, she had never seen the disease progress so quickly. He was already vomiting blood in just three days.
This kind of situation has never happened in Baihua Valley.
Li Gu took two steps back in horror to avoid the blood.
After falling to the ground and vomiting blood, Achan convulsed for a while and then died with his eyes wide open.
"he died?"
Xie Yan frowned. It only took the blink of an eye for this man to go from falling ill and vomiting blood to falling to the ground and dying.
Especially after Li Gu said that the disease was contagious, everyone present saw this scene and felt extreme fear in their hearts.
Li Gu frowned so hard that she could kill a mosquito. She took out a handkerchief and checked Ah Chan's pulse, then shook her head and said:
"died."
She turned around and looked at Xie Yan: "Your Highness, King Chu, there is no time to lose. Please notify the capital to send a few doctors over. We will go into the mountains to hunt down the red monkey!"
She gave Xie Yan an anti-poison pill and asked him to take it, and the two of them led an army into Yueshan.
After Feng Qingluan brought the tumor removed from Ge Ming's brain back to the Marquis' Mansion, she went into the medical room that night to begin research.
The last time she fell off the cliff, the medical room on the open ground couldn't be used. After she returned to the capital, she tried it in the room and found that her space medical room could only be used in the room.
She had been in the medical bay all night conducting experiments.
She discovered that this tumor was not caused by the accumulation of ordinary toxins. There was an unknown toxin in it that could affect people's behavior and consciousness. She didn't know what this unknown toxin was called, so Feng Qingluan temporarily named it Teng Jingsu.
The next day, Feng Qingluan came out of the laboratory.
Late last night, she prepared the first antidote for Xie Jin's Tianyinsha. After lunch, she was going to go to Prince Rong's Mansion to let him take it to see the effect. Just as she was about to go out, Xue Zimo and Jiang Qu walked in from outside, and both of them looked a little solemn.
Jiang Qu saw Feng Qingluan and said, "Miss Feng, the prince is waiting for you outside. There is news from Ningxiang Village that the red monkey that Li Gu was looking for fled from Yueshan to Niufushan to avoid being hunted down.
The mountain behind Ningxiang Village is Niufu Mountain. The monkey has caused a serious epidemic, and some people have been infected and died. The prince wants to go over to check the situation, and asked you to go with him."
Feng Qingluan stood up suddenly, "What? That monkey is so powerful, and Ge Ming is still in Ningxiang Village."
She quickly came to the door and saw Xie Jin's carriage. Without caring about anything else, she got on and the two of them rushed to Ningxiang Village outside the city.
