Sima Han did not answer, but quickly rolled up Shen Ningning's trouser legs.

There were two small blood holes above her white and tender ankles, and the edges of the wounds were deep black.

Sima Han's expression changed: "It's the plague."

Xie Mingxu was shocked: "He must have been bitten in the cell."

Sima Han quickly grabbed Shen Ningning's chin and looked at her tongue coating.

After reading it, he also had panic in his eyes: "It's over, it's over, this child is more dangerous than good."

Xie Mingxu frowned: "The plague is coming fiercely, but it won't be like poison. It can kill people in an instant. You should give her an injection and prescribe medicine immediately."

Sima Han stamped his feet and said: "The top priority is to isolate everyone from her. Young Master, you can't even enter this room. The plague may be contagious. Get out quickly!"

He pushed Xie Mingxu, but Xie Mingxu frowned.

Xie Mingxu glanced hesitantly at Shen Ningning on the bed.

He said in a steady voice: "It doesn't matter, I carried her back. Maybe she was infected on the way here. It won't help if she goes out now. You should treat her first."

Sima Han looked at him in surprise: "Young Master, you...hey, okay, okay, little old man, I won't say anything anymore, I'm going to prescribe medicine right now."

Throughout the afternoon, in Xie Mingxu's yard, servants covered their faces with white cloths and hurried in and out carrying hot water.

Mrs. Xie, the second roommate, came here once and saw this formation, but she didn't dare to come in.

He only asked a maid at the door: "What's going on? Is Mingxu sick?"

The Xie family's main house does not have a mistress, so the second wife is now responsible for the management of the house's internal affairs.

The maid lowered her head and replied: "The little girl brought back by the eldest young master was infected with the plague. The miracle doctor told us not to get close to her, and she left the things outside."

The second lady was startled: "Plague? Then drive her out of the house quickly!"

But the maid said: "The eldest young master refuses, and has already treated the little girl inside with the miracle doctor."

After finishing speaking, the maid hurriedly brought the hot water in.

The second lady was so frightened that she was dizzy and was barely supported by the aunt beside her.

"Second Madam, please take care of yourself. This yard is not clean. Don't come near it again."

"I'm worried about Mingxu. Why did this child bring a patient in? He's so impulsive." The second lady shook her head helplessly.

After saying that, she hurriedly said: "Quickly find some mugwort and smoke it in the yard of our second room to remove the poison!"

"Also, prepare the food and deliver it to the eldest master's yard, but be careful not to come into contact with them."

Grandma wrote it down and quickly went to tell her to do it.

The second lady returned to the yard in shock, where Xie Yuanjiu was practicing calligraphy under the window.

Seeing his mother's distracted look, he put down his brush and asked, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

The second lady wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "Jiujiu, don't play in your eldest brother's yard these days. He brought back a little girl from somewhere and she got the plague!"

Just mentioning this disease makes the second wife's scalp numb.

That's an infection, it can be fatal!

Xie Yuanjiu was startled: "Is she the little girl that the elder brother brought back at noon?"

"Yes, why, you recognize it too?"

"I don't recognize her, but last time when I brought the miracle doctor back, I encountered a float blocking the road, and it was her."

The second lady's eyes widened, and her expression became a little angry.

"What? Why didn't you tell your elder brother about this? This kind of child is our enemy, and his horoscopes are incompatible with each other!"

"Brother is busy with his affairs, how can I bother him with such a trivial matter." Xie Yuanjiu's tone was filled with a hint of grievance.

Seeing the panic on the second lady's face, she repeatedly said that she must be kicked out of the house.

Then he said, "Mom, don't worry too much. Isn't the miracle doctor there? He will definitely be cured."

The second lady groaned and was very anxious: "You don't understand, if the eight characters are in conflict and her illness is cured, we will be affected by her!"

The second lady has always believed in horoscopes. She always looks at the almanac for everything she does, and asks the goddess to ask for divination when encountering important events.

Now that something like this happened in the house, in her eyes, it was equivalent to the sky falling.

"No, I have to go to the goddess and ask if this is unlucky." The second lady said and left in a hurry.

At night.

The second lady came back with a horrified look.

"Jiujiu, it's not good, the goddess made a prediction, it's going to be a big disaster."

Xie Yuanjiu was about to fall asleep when he heard this and frowned: "Is it so serious?"

The second wife looked worried and haggard: "If our second wife is also affected, it will make things worse."

"You are about to take the exam for the Chinese Academy of Sciences. It's a critical time. You can't be sick, and your father is paralyzed on the bed. If something really happens, it will kill him."

"No, I must find an opportunity to throw that little girl out when your elder brother is not in the house."

Xie Yuanjiu hesitated for a moment: "Mom, this is not good, big brother will be angry."

Although the second wife is now in charge of the accounting and internal affairs in the mansion, the real decision maker is the eldest house.

After all, the eldest master Xie Suzhi is the prime minister of the dynasty, and the eldest young master and the second young master are both famous and have important positions in the court.

Therefore, irritating Xie Mingxu would do no good to their mother and daughter.

The second lady was also worried, but she was short-witted and couldn't come up with any good ideas.

"Jiujiu, you are smart. Please think of a way for me to drive that little girl out?"

Xie Yuanjiu groaned, with a gloomy look in his eyes.

After a moment, she said, "If I remember correctly, the name of the person that elder brother brought back is Shen Ningning."

"A while ago, she was the lucky girl who brought rain to the capital and solved the drought. If mother really didn't want her to stay in the house, she could just use the maid's advice and tell her that she was seriously ill and that it would harm her elder brother. ”

"Shen Ningning is not old. We can take advantage of her innocence to deepen her guilt. As long as she still has breath, she will definitely find a way to leave on her own."

The second lady's eyes lit up: "Jiujiu, you are still smart, okay, okay, mother will find someone to make arrangements right now."

However, for the next three days, Xie Mingxu did not leave Xie's mansion.

At first, he lived in a side courtyard, with only a wall separating him from Shen Ningning.

But after three days of observation, he showed no symptoms, so he went back to take care of Shen Ningning.

The little one's condition was more serious. Sima Han prescribed three powerful medicines, but it didn't work even if she drank even a little bit.

The fever can only be reduced.

In the early morning of this day, Sima Han performed acupuncture on Shen Ningning all night again.

The little old man was very tired. Fortunately, God lived up to his wish, and Shen Ningning finally opened her eyes.

She was so weak that when she saw Xie Mingxu, she still shouted: "Brother..."

Xie Mingxu was making medicine for her, and when he heard this, he hurried to the couch.

"How are you feeling? Are you still feeling bad?"

"Uncomfortable..." Shen Ningning nodded, but she was afraid that Xie Mingxu would worry, so she forced a smile: "But it's better now. I'm a little hungry."

Sima Han breathed a sigh of relief: "Knowing that being hungry is a good thing."

Xie Mingxu hurriedly asked the maid to bring a bowl of vegetable porridge and fed Shen Ningning to eat it one bite at a time.

The expression on Sima Han's face was not necessarily relaxed.

He said: "This disease is still a bit difficult. I have to go back and read the medical books again, but before that, let me sleep for an hour, otherwise I will be exhausted and there will be no miracle doctor to treat this girl."

With Xie Mingxu's permission, Sima Han left in a hurry.

After Shen Ningning finished the porridge, she was still weak and asked feebly: "Brother, what's wrong with me?"

Xie Mingxu pursed his thin lips, fearing that she would have random thoughts, so he said: "You were frightened and had high fevers repeatedly, but don't worry, Sima Han's medical skills are world-renowned."

"With him here, your illness will definitely get better. Just sleep a little longer."

Shen Ningning lay down obediently and opened her mouth to ask something.

Xie Mingxu guessed what she was thinking and said directly: "Don't worry, His Royal Highness is fine. I will enter the palace now, go to the emperor to take up my duties, and take two more days of rest."

After not going to the palace for three days in a row, the emperor had already sent someone to ask about it once.

He still had to take two days off to see Shen Ningning get better.

The little guy nodded obediently: "Brother, go ahead, I'll sleep on my own."

Xie Mingxu felt a little distressed when he looked at her pale face.

He stood up and left, instructing the maid outside to remind her to take medicine regularly.

After Xie Mingxu left, Shen Ningning used her strength to take out a bowl of spiritual spring water from the fairyland and drank it all in one gulp.

In fact, she could feel that she was sick, and it was not as simple as Xie Mingxu said.

The spiritual spring water is now very important. It can cure ordinary ailments. The little guy just hopes to feel better.

Sure enough, within half an hour after drinking the spiritual spring water, she felt that her hands and feet had regained strength.

My head is no longer so heavy.

However, at this time, I heard the voice of the maid at the door.

"Sanxiang, aren't you serving the second lady? Why are you here?"
