Chapter 78: Yuheng, you are taking a narrow path!
The words fell.
Qin Wenyuan did not answer, but narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of danger in his eyes.
smallpox!
A disease that scares countless people!!
In the Tang Dynasty, everyone, from the royal family to the common people, would be involuntarily afraid when they heard about smallpox!
This is because smallpox is a very serious infectious disease.
When you get smallpox, you will initially develop some small rashes.
Gradually, these small pimples will turn into blisters filled with pus, and symptoms such as fever, headache, and general fatigue will also appear.
Contact, talking, or touching the patient's belongings with people who have smallpox can all lead to infection, and the virus can even be spread through the air.
Especially in this era, sanitary conditions are very poor and it is difficult to isolate patients. Once smallpox is discovered, it may even implicate relatives and friends around them, causing even more terrible consequences.
So for the entire Tang Dynasty, smallpox was a very terrible disease.
People who get smallpox are actually no different from being dead, the only difference is that it is a very painful death.
Of course, there were a few lucky ones who escaped and successfully defeated smallpox.
But these lucky ones are so few and far between that they can almost be said to be one in ten thousand.
Now Qin Wenyuan finally knew why those guards outside left the palace, and he also finally knew why they were searching house by house without getting tired of it.
After all, a disease like smallpox could turn the entire Chang'an into a dead city within just a few months! !
"Have many people spread this news?" Qin Wenyuan said lightly.
The servant glanced at Qin Wenyuan and found that he could not tell whether Qin Wenyuan was in a good or bad mood.
He shuddered again and said, "Very little, just gossip ."
Qin Wenyuan said: "It's just fake news, don't worry about it."
The servant smiled awkwardly and said, "Yes, Master, I also think this news is nonsense."
"After all, two days ago, Madam was still chatting and laughing with us servants. How could she have contracted smallpox?"
Although the servant said so, his panicked expression betrayed him.
Qin Wenyuan chuckled, "I remember, your name is Little Bar?"
"Yes, sir." Xiaojiu replied.
Qin Wenyuan continued, "Don't worry, I'll deliver the young lady's medicine later, so you don't have to do it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jiu burst into tears of gratitude and said, "Thank you very much, Master! Thank you very much, Master!!"
After saying that, he kowtowed heavily to Qin Wenyuan.
"Go down." Qin Wenyuan said lightly.
Soon, the wine was gone.
Qin Wenyuan looked at his departing back and knew that Xiaojiu was scared to death.
He was afraid that Changle really had smallpox.
If he got it, he, who was feeding Changle medicine, would also be in danger of getting smallpox.
Qin Wenyuan was not very angry about Xiaojiu's behavior.
In fact, quite the opposite, I agree very much.
After all, everyone is unique, and it's normal for Xiaojiu to be afraid of death.
And he, Qin, is also afraid of death.
If the person who might have contracted smallpox was not his wife Changle, but someone else, Qin Wenyuan would also stay away from her.
Qin Wenyuan smiled and shook his head, folded his hands behind his back, and continued walking with a hunched back.
Half an hour later.
With a "creak", Qin Wenyuan gently opened the door holding the medicine.
Inside the room, Changle was lying on the bed, her face still red.
Qin Wenyuan put the medicine on the table, brought a wooden bucket for washing his face, and then sat down next to Changle.
"Husband...Husband, I heard your footsteps coming a long time ago. How...why did it take so long? Was there something that delayed you?"
Changle's face flushed and she spoke in a halting manner.
Changle's hearing has become unusually sharp since he had been lying down.
Qin Wenyuan gave a stiff laugh. "Nothing. I just remembered to wash your face. Look at you, little lazy cat. You've been lying in your room for two days. Your face doesn't look good anymore."
Qin Wenyuan put the towel into the water and began to wring out the water with both hands.
Changle narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly, as if she was in some pain, and then said: "Husband, you...you lied to me. When you smiled like this before, that...that was lying to me."
"Besides, today...it was Xiaojiu who came to bring me medicine today, why is it you who came here?"
Madam Changle, your mind is still so sharp even at this time!
Qin Wenyuan still smiled stiffly, "Madam, you think too much. Xiaojiu just had something to do at home, so I temporarily released him."
"Why, in your eyes, is it that your husband is not able to serve you?"
Qin Wenyuan pretended to look grim at the end of his speech.
Changle was frightened. "No... no, I'm just... a little curious."
"That's good. Speaking of which, the guards in Chang'an are still as annoying as ever today. But no matter how Chang'an changes, we, the couple, will never be separated."
"No matter whether Chang'an is good or bad, no matter how the people of Chang'an change, you and I, since we made a vow to live and die together on the day of our marriage, we should be together forever."
Qin Wenyuan said something inappropriate at the right time.
At this moment, Changle was in some pain and didn't understand the sentence very clearly. He only heard the general idea.
Qin Wenyuan then began to carefully hold a cold towel on Changle's little head to bring some coolness to her hot little head.
Then he picked up a wet towel and wiped his wife's body.
Originally, this should have been done by the maid Xiaolin, but Qin Wenyuan planned to send Xiaolin away this afternoon.
After all, Changle might have contracted smallpox, and he couldn't bear to involve an innocent person and let her get smallpox as well.
Changle, let Qin Wenyuan take care of the lady by himself.
Qin Wenyuan has not yet discovered any small rash on Changle's body.
This made him feel relieved, and he thought to himself that it couldn't be that damn smallpox.
However, when he touched Changle's soft and boneless little hand, he was stunned!
Rash , it appeared!!
And not just one or two!!
It’s a lot!!
Qin Wenyuan looked at it... speechless .
He could never have imagined that this deadly infectious disease would actually be related to his beloved wife!
Obviously, he had already told the Dog and the Rabbit to be extra careful.
But still...
Yu Heng took advantage of the situation...
"Husband, you...what's wrong with you?" Changle asked again with difficulty.
Qin Wenyuan's eyes were slightly red. "It's nothing. The wind in this room is still too strong. I just got some sand in my eyes."
"Ma'am, I'll come over later. You should have a good rest first."
After saying that, Qin Wenyuan lifted Changle's little hand and kissed it gently.
Then, without waiting for Changle to react, he left without looking back.
Qin Wenyuan's eyes became more dangerous as he stared at the wooden door in front of him.
He didn't expect that Yu Heng would be so unscrupulous! !
"Yuheng, if you touch my wife, you will be on a narrow path..."
