Daming: I am the most powerful emperor grandson, please abdicate the throne

Chapter 343 Patients appear in groups
  The New Year's Eve dinner was finished quickly.

After the meal, the prince, prince and grandson continued to talk about old times in the imperial garden.

Zhu Xuan took Zhu Yunxi to meet Grandpa Huang.

"I'm sorry for not protecting you!"

Seeing Zhu Yunxi so weak and haggard, Zhu Yuanzhang was ashamed.

Zhu Yunxi said: "Grandpa Huang has always protected his grandson, and he is much better now. He is no longer afraid of the cold at night, but the side effects are a bit severe and cannot be relieved for the time being."

Zhu Yuanzhang held his hand and said reassuringly: "It's okay! We will ask Xu Xingzu to send some medicinal food out of the palace later to give you a supplement."

But he was thinking that Xuan Yueze was still useful.

Jin Yiwei investigated again, and there was no other news for the time being, but Xuan Yueze could really make his grandson get better. He still chose to believe it in his heart, but he did not give up the investigation.

"Thank you, Grandpa Huang!"

Zhu Yunxi felt heartwarming and said: "When my grandson recovers, he will help the emperor go to fight in the north."

Zhu Yuanzhang said distressedly: "There is no need to fight anymore. From now on, we can enjoy happiness in Yingtian. If you want anything, just come and tell us."

Zhu Yunxi nodded happily, and then stayed beside Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time.

It wasn't until late at night that he left the palace and went home.

"Grandpa Huang, second brother is suffering too much."

Zhu Xuan sent Zhu Yunxi out, then ran back and said.

Zhu Yuanzhang rubbed Zhu Xuan's head and asked with a smile: "How do you want to treat your second brother from now on?"

The hidden meaning of this sentence is that Zhu Xuan will have power in the future and can arrange for his second brother or even other brothers, implying that Zhu Xuan may inherit the throne.

Zhu Xuan said sincerely: "Whatever the second brother wants, as long as the grandson can give it, it's no problem. Even if the second brother wants the grandson to withdraw from the competition for the emperor's grandson, then the grandson will no longer compete next year."

He was also telling the truth.

If Zhu Yunxi wants, Zhu Xuan can give it to him at any time.

He wanted to fight for the position of the emperor's grandson, but he didn't have to do it. As long as it was not given to Zhu Yunwen, others could consider it, especially giving it to Zhu Yunxi.

"What a good grandson!"

Zhu Yuanzhang hugged Zhu Xuan.

He was satisfied with this answer.

The little sweet grandson values ​​​​family affection, and it is very rare that he can not compete with the emperor's grandson. If it were others, even Zhu Yunwen, he would definitely not be able to do this.

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "It's getting late, my dear grandson, go back and rest! We are tired too."

Zhu Xuan said: "Grandpa Huang, don't stay up late, go to bed quickly."

After saying good night, Zhu Xuan went back to the small courtyard.

It feels quite good to come back to Yingtian to celebrate the New Year with Grandpa Huang.

-

The first day of the new year.

The farmer who picked up the wool shawl felt tired when he woke up early in the morning.

"Husband, what's wrong with you?"

His wife, who was sleeping next to him, quickly tried to support him.

But soon, she found that she was also a little tired, her body was a little hot, and she felt uncomfortable all over.

"I seem to have a fever."

"Me too!"

The farmer stood up and said feebly: "I still have a headache and fatigue. Are we sick? My child..."

He shouted twice.

The child didn't seem to be up yet. They endured the discomfort and ran over to see how the child was doing. They found that the child had not yet woken up. They touched his forehead and it was very hot.

This is not not waking up, but being unconscious.

The whole family is sick.

"Go to the hospital quickly, let's go to the city!" the farmer said anxiously.

In a similar situation, there is the beggar.

Wrapped in a cotton-padded jacket, he lay down on a random roof to rest, but his whole body was shaking, he had a headache and a fever. He didn't know how uncomfortable he was, and even breathing was difficult.   Last night, everyone who picked up the clothes felt the same way.

The New Year should be cheerful and joyful, but for them, it seems to be a torment.

No one knew what was going on.

-

New Year's Day.

Daming Bookstore is on holiday, and all factories and workshops are closed for rest. The workers have gone home to spend time with their families.

Zhu Xuan came out of the palace and brought his two young daughters-in-law to the palace to meet the emperor's grandfather. Afterwards, they built a snowman in the small yard and had no idea about Yingtian's situation at this time.

We are still in the invasive stage of smallpox virus. Only people with poor resistance will immediately attack and enter the symptom stage, with papules appearing, which will then fester into blisters and pustules...

Although someone is sick, the problem has not yet become apparent.

During this time, everyone is staying at home with their families, moving around less, and the virus is not very widespread. Even Jin Yiwei doesn't think it's a problem.

Three days passed in this state.

Until the third day of the new year.

Zhu Xuan said goodbye to Grandpa Huang and took Hou Xian out of the palace for a walk, because during the Chinese New Year, many shops in the city were closed, including Daming Bookstore, which would not be open now, so the streets were very quiet.

"Why do I feel that this year's New Year's atmosphere has a lifeless feeling, which is different from the past."

Zhu Xuan walked on the street, looking around curiously.

The festive atmosphere disappeared in the city, replaced by deathly silence.

The quietness of the streets at this time is different from the quietness of everyone going home for the New Year or vacation.

There was an aura called death in the silence, covering the city, and there was a feeling that something big was about to happen.

"It's quite strange."

Hou Xian also had a similar feeling: "Why is this year so special?"

They couldn't figure it out.

As we walked along, there were still pedestrians on the road, but they were in a hurry.

There are also some people who are being helped by others to walk as if they are seriously ill.

"Your Highness, it seems more lively in front."

Hou Xian said suddenly.

Zhu Xuan looked forward: "That's a hospital. Why are there so many patients in the hospital now?"

Outside the hospital, patients were coming and going, in and out.

Several times more than usual.

During the Chinese New Year, it shouldn’t be like this.

In addition to doctors, there are also nurses in the hospital.

However, due to the limitations of the times, most of them are male nurses, and there are also female nurses. However, they are considered immoral and expose women to the public, which is not in line with the rules of the times. Therefore, only a small number of female nurses can be recruited to take care of female patients.

"The number of patients today is more than double that of yesterday."

A male nurse frowned and said, "Why are so many people sick these days?"

"Strange!"

Another male nurse said in confusion: "Most of the people who have been sick recently have fevers and headaches. The symptoms are similar. Is there any disease?"

This is only possible when an epidemic breaks out, and the symptoms of patients are all the same.

"Stop talking nonsense."

The male nurse just now, while guiding the patient, said: "If the dean finds out that we are talking nonsense, we will be kicked out. Let's get to work!"

They put all their thoughts aside for the time being.

Continue to stay in the hospital and guide patients to see doctors.

But most of these patients went to the emergency room, and there were basically no people in other departments.

Liu Chun had to arrange for other doctors to go to the emergency room for consultation.

Many Chinese medicine practitioners are general practitioners, and they know how to treat many common diseases. The separate departments are just for the convenience of patients.
