375 Call Gu Qingxue Over
Gu Qingxue took the brocade box with both hands, smiling brightly.
After waiting for so many days, she finally got the Ultimate Dust Flower!
Ignoring the reactions of the people present, Gu Qingxue quickened her pace, returned to her room in the courtyard house, and began to study the antidote.
On this side, the secret guards that Rong Zhan had brought out hurried over and quickly followed Rong Zhan’s orders to deal with the situation at the scene.
The villagers also took the initiative to help. The first thing they did was set up a big pot and start brewing the medicine.
Prince Heng and the others were all placed in the tents. After just one night, their bodies had the reaction that the cadaveric rash should have. They had a high fever, vomiting, and diarrhea.
Fortunately, the soup that Gu Qingxue had prepared was effective. After these patients took the medicine, their condition improved one by one. Especially the sick guards. They were people who practiced martial arts, so their physical fitness was much stronger than ordinary people. They were also able to resist the plague better. After each of them drank two bowls of medicine, their condition improved greatly.
In comparison, Prince Heng, Princess Liuying, and Imperial Physician Qin were not so lucky.
These three people had lived in luxury all year round. Their physical fitness could not be compared to the villagers who often worked in the tie family village, let alone the guards who practiced martial arts.
The medicinal effects of the soup did not have much effect on them. Although it guaranteed that their condition would not deteriorate further, the three of them still had a high fever, vomiting, and diarrhea.
This also caused the tent where the three of them were in to emit a pungent stench for a long time, almost making people faint.
In order to take care of these three people conveniently, the villagers of the Tie Family Village had no choice but to place the three of them in the same tent.
Inside the tent, Prince Heng and Imperial Physician Qin were lying on the same bed. A piece of cloth was put between the tents, separating the two of them from Princess Firefly.
Prince Heng’s face was sallow as he lay weakly on the bed. His eyes were wide open as he stared blankly at the top of the tent. “Men, quickly come and help me… Cough, cough, cough, Imperial Physician Qin, quickly think of a way!”
The night passed quietly, but to Prince Heng, this night made him feel even more tormented.
He had never experienced such torment and pain. He felt as if his body was about to be torn apart, and there was not a single part of his body that was comfortable.
Imperial Physician Qin glanced at Prince Heng from the corner of his eyes. The eyelids that were originally raised dropped again, and he looked even weaker than Prince Heng. “Your Highness, this old subject is already unable to protect himself…”
From the other side of the curtain, Princess Liuying’s gnashing voice could be heard. “You piece of trash. You clearly said that this disease is not a plague and it won’t be contagious.”
Imperial Physician Qin was already angry in his heart. In addition, his high fever had not subsided. His entire body was on the verge of passing out from the fever. After hearing these words, he did not bother to respond. He lowered his eyes and panted heavily.
Princess Liuying wanted to scold him, but before she could open her mouth, another round of groaning came from her stomach.
Princess Liuying groaned in pain. She raised her hand and slapped the bed. “Someone, call… Call Gu Qingxue over.”
Hearing the commotion in the tent, Madam Peng lifted the curtain of the tent and walked in. Looking at Princess Liuying who was lying on the bed, she asked rudely, “Princess, are you trying to poop again?”
“You… you impudent!” Princess Liuying was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She scolded Madam Peng with a red face.
