Chapter 30
Inside the house, the corners of Zhou Shu's mouth twitched, "When the next official recovers from his illness, I will be a cow and a horse for the young master, and I will not hesitate to do so."

"Okay, you have to remember what you said today."

Wen Yuting took the note she gave and left, while Zhou Shu was sent to the epidemic place.

On the second day in the epidemic place, her condition worsened, and she coughed up blood from time to time.

After coughing up blood again, Zhou Shu looked at the horrific blood on the handkerchief.

She held the handkerchief firmly, her eyes were firm, and she made a bold decision.

Call someone to bring paper and ink.

"Come here, help me get a pen and paper."

As soon as the words fell, a servant came in holding the Four Treasures of the Study in both hands.

"Put down the things, you go out first." In order to avoid contagion to him, Zhou Shu asked someone to put paper and ink at the door.

The servant lowered his head and did not listen to her order to put down his things and leave.

Instead, he approached, spread out the paper skillfully as if he had done countless movements, then stood aside, dripped a drop of water onto the inkstone, and began to grind it.

Listening to the movement, Zhou Shu raised his eyelids and looked over at him.

After seeing the faces of the people in the room clearly, his eyes widened.

Anxious and angry, "Brother, you..."

After saying three words, he coughed violently again.

"A word."

Seeing her coughing, Zhou Hui was worried, and rushed over with a stride, reaching out to pat her on the back.

He was avoided by Zhou Shu.

She stopped coughing, and looked at Zhou Hui with bright red eyes, her eyes were full of accusations.

"Brother, this is Epidemic Square, why did you appear here?"

"I'm worried about you." Zhou Hui turned his eyes away from her angry expression.

"A Ci, the plague man's workshop is full of people infected with the plague, no one will take care of you, I don't worry."

"What are you worried about? There are doctors here and special people to take care of them. What's more, I can take care of myself."

"Brother, this is not where you should come. I'll just pretend I've never seen you before. You leave now."

"I don't." The words of refusal blurted out.

Zhou Shu's eyes were red, she didn't know what he was thinking.

But the plague is not a child's play, and he cannot be willful.

She lost her temper with him for the first time.

"Brother is like this, is it because you are deceiving me that I am sick now, and there is nothing I can do about you?"

"A Ci, why am I willing to bully you?" Zhou Hui said helplessly, his voice full of distress.

"You are not in good health, and now you are infected with the plague. I am worried about you, so I want to come and take care of you."

"I don't need your care." Zhou Shu said sharply, "Now the situation outside is turbulent, and it's an eventful time. If you really want to do my best, brother, then leave here and help the young master and General Wang."

"Only when those things outside are completely resolved, will I have a chance of survival."

After saying that, she stopped looking at Zhou Shu, and sternly called out to the officers and soldiers guarding outside.

"The epidemic place is a serious place, and people who are not related to it are not allowed to enter. Please invite Mr. Zhou to go out."

"A Ci." Zhou Hui refused to leave.

But Zhou Shu became ruthless, turned his back to him, and waved to the officers and soldiers behind him, asking someone to take him down.

Zhou Hui's two fists were no match for his four feet, and he was "invited" out of the Epidemic Square by someone.

He looked in the direction of the epidemic place with scarlet eyes, his teeth were clenched tightly, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, and finally he punched the wall in frustration, and left indignantly.

Not long after he left, two ghostly figures quietly appeared above the Epidemic Square.

One of them was dressed in white and was still shaking a fan in his hand. The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and his smile didn't reach his eyes. He looked coldly at Zhou Shu who was writing with his head down in the room.

Beside him, there is another person.

Her face was slightly cold, and her eyes were always calm.

This person is Hongying.

At this moment, Hongying stood behind the man in white expressionlessly, as if she didn't know anyone in the room, and there was no emotion in her eyes.

The man in white looked at it for a while, then withdrew his gaze, and stared at Hongying with a half-smile, "Hongying, it seems that you treat him really unusually, I asked you to drug him to make him unconscious for a while. Wake up, I can't manage the affairs of Xiangzhou City."

"But now, he is still standing here alive, you say, how should I punish you?"

The man's voice was gloomy, and Hongying's body trembled, her eyes showed horror, and she immediately knelt down to him and begged for mercy.

Before she could say the words of begging for mercy, she was grabbed by the man's hand by the neck.

"Hongying, you know, I don't like women who pretend to be smart." When he said this, his eyes became more abnormal, and the strength in his hands gradually increased.

Hongying was suffocated by the choke, her face was flushed red, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

But the man didn't have the slightest thought of pity and sympathy.

He wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with one hand, raised the corners of his lips, smiled at her, and then tightened his strength suddenly.

He squeezed her jaw hard.

The force was so great that it seemed to crush her bones.

Hongying knelt down at his feet resignedly, allowing him to do violence to her.

Seeing her biting her lips tightly and remaining silent stubbornly, the man suddenly became bored.

He let go of her suddenly, his pretty brows were furrowed, and he wiped the finger that touched her body with a veil in disgust.

At the end, he gently threw the veil on her face.

"Go back to the mansion and receive fifty lashes."

"Thank you master for the reward." Hongying put her hands on the ground, kowtowed to him respectfully, then flew away, went to a seemingly ordinary house, and went to receive the punishment.

On the other side, Zhou Hui was kicked out of the Epidemic Square by Zhou Shu, and returned to the county government office in a daze.

He wanted to ask Hongying to find a way to treat Zhou Shu, but he heard Fuxiu say that she said goodbye early this morning and left the county office.

The last straw was gone, and Zhou Hui's eyes were filled with despair, and he sat on the ground slumped, regardless of his image.

Wen Yuting took people to go to the prison to interrogate Zhang Maoan, passing by the courtyard, happened to see Zhou Hui sitting dejectedly on the ground at the entrance of the courtyard.

He raised his hand to push away the crowd, and walked up to him.

Seeing him bowing his head, he looked like he was dying.

Wen Yuting laughed angrily, and kicked him.

"Dead or not?"

Hearing this, Zhou Hui's dull eyeballs moved, and he raised his head, looking at him with red-rimmed eyes.

"Young Master, Ah Ci is infected with the plague."

"I know." His voice was calm, as if he was telling him what he would have for dinner.

Stimulated by his indifferent attitude, Zhou Hui got emotional, stood up abruptly, and grabbed his collar.

Getting up too fast made me dizzy for a while, and I almost fell down again.

Fortunately, Wen Yuting's quick eyes and quick hands caught him.

"You know you still have this attitude?" He stood firmly with Wen Yuting's hand, and said angrily, "Ah Ci's health is not good, and now he is infected with the plague. It's more dangerous, but you have an indifferent attitude, Wen... "

He was about to turn into anger again and call him Wen Ruoyu.

"Brother Zhou." Wen Yuting sighed in his heart.

What Zhou Shu said was indeed correct, this person is straightforward and can't hide things in his heart.

"Don't worry, I have asked General Wang to take people to the surrounding counties to look for doctors. Mr. Zhou's illness will definitely recover."

But distant water cannot save near fire.

Zhou Hui was still frowning, "By the time we find the doctor, Ah Ci would have already passed away."

"Brother Zhou, there are so many people infected with the plague in Siyi County, and they are all waiting for the doctor to treat them. I know you are impatient, but you can't solve the problem right now."
