Chapter 236 This disease is highly contagious
He thought to himself: What...what's going on? They are acting like this, are they really having an affair?
I just suspected that this young man was a spy, but now it seems that the situation is much more complicated than I imagined.
He couldn't help but secretly thought, "Oh no, have I gotten into trouble?" He didn't really bring a spy with him, did he? If anything went wrong, he wouldn't be able to take the consequences.
Just when the atmosphere was at a stalemate, Ren Jingzhi was the first to come back to his senses.
He took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound steady, but his slightly trembling tone still revealed his excitement at the moment.
"Ran... Ranran, is it really you? Why are you here?" Ren Jingzhi's eyes were fixed on Shen Yiran, as if he was afraid that she would disappear in the next second.
When Shen Yiran heard Ren Jingzhi's voice, tears instantly filled her eyes. She blinked hard to stop the tears from falling, and said with great effort, "Husband, it's me, I... I heard that there was a strange disease raging in the military camp, and thought that I might be able to help, so I rushed over."
Ren Jingzhi was moved again after hearing Shen Yiran's words. He knew that Ranran had always been so kind, and always wanted to help others even when she was in danger.
"You silly girl, do you know how dangerous this is? What should I do if something happens to you?" There was a hint of blame in Ren Jingzhi's voice, but more of it was deep concern and heartache.
Doctor Wang, who was standing by, felt a little relieved when he heard their conversation.
But then he became confused again, just... Why would this young master call the prince his husband? Although Doctor Wang still had doubts in his heart, he couldn't ask any more questions at this moment, so he could only watch quietly from the side.
At this moment, Lin Bei, who was following behind Ren Jingzhi, ran forward excitedly, looked Shen Yiran up and down, and said in disbelief, "Oh my God, it's really the Crown Prince's Consort. How did you find her?"
Shen Yiran said anxiously, "We'll talk about this in detail later. Let's go see the sick soldiers first."
Ren Jingzhi had some doubts about Wang Lei who was traveling with Shen Yiran and Banxia, but the situation was urgent at the moment so he didn't rush to ask.
Doctor Wang then realized that this "young master" turned out to be the prince's wife. It seemed that he was really old. He had never seen any signs of a woman disguised as a man in her before.
He quickly replied, "I will take you there right away."
So, under the curious and puzzled gazes of the crowd, Doctor Wang led a group of people and walked quickly towards the military camp.
Along the way, although Ren Jingzhi and Shen Yiran did not say much, their occasional glances were filled with thousands of words, as if telling of their longing and concern for each other over the past few days.
Soon, everyone arrived at the entrance of the military camp. At this time, the atmosphere in the military camp was depressing and heavy. The soldiers standing guard at the entrance all had solemn faces, and their eyes were filled with fatigue and worry.
Seeing Ren Jingzhi and others coming back, they just nodded slightly and continued to stick to their posts.
Everyone went straight to the tent where the sick soldiers were.
Along the way, Shen Yiran saw many soldiers sitting or lying down, looking listless, and some were still coughing constantly. The coughing sounded particularly harsh in this silent military camp.
Her heart grew heavier; the thing she had been worrying about had finally happened.
When they arrived outside the tents of the sick soldiers, a heavy smell hit them. Inside the tents, they could faintly hear the painful groans and coughs of the sick soldiers, which made their hearts tighten.
Ren Jingzhi turned to look at Shen Yiran and said softly, "Ranran, this is the tent where the sick soldiers are. The situation inside is... very serious. Are you... are you really sure you can cure this disease?"
Shen Yiran took a deep breath, looked at Ren Jingzhi firmly, and said, "I will try my best. Don't worry, since I dare to come, I must be confident."
Ren Jingzhi looked at Shen Yiran's determined eyes, and inexplicably felt a little more trust and hope in his heart.
Shen Yiran turned around and told Wang Lei and Banxia, "Don't go in, just wait at the door."
After giving the instructions, Shen Yiran and Ren Jingzhi walked into the tent together.
Lin Bei looked at Banxia, his excitement still unabated, "Banxia, when did you guys come? How did you catch up with us so quickly?"
Banxia had no intention of hiding anything from Lin Bei, she said frankly: "We came here through a secret passage in a cave. It was because of this secret passage that we were able to get to Yuancheng County so quickly."
When Lin Bei heard this, he immediately became interested and hurriedly urged, "Tell me the details quickly."
As soon as Shen Yiran stepped into the tent, a strong smell of medicine, sweat and illness hit her in the face. The mixed smell made her almost nauseous.
The light in the tent was dim. A few oil lamps were swaying in the corner, emitting a weak light that barely illuminated the miserable scene.
The ground was covered with simple beds, and the soldiers were lying or sprawled on the beds. Their faces were as pale as paper, their lips were cracked and chapped, and they were completely bloodless.
Some of them had their eyes closed and their brows furrowed. Beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down their foreheads. Their bodies twitched from time to time, as if they were enduring great pain.
Some of them were staring at the top of the tent with empty eyes, muttering to themselves. It was unclear what they were saying, but their desperate expressions were heartbreaking.
The sounds of coughing echoed in the tent, and each cough seemed to use up all the strength of the whole body, as if it wanted to cough out the heart and lungs.
Some soldiers were groaning in pain. The sound was weak but revealed endless sadness, which made people feel pity.
The military doctors were busy running back and forth in the tent, holding various medical instruments and herbs in their hands, their faces full of fatigue and helplessness. Faced with the raging epidemic, they were also at a loss as to what to do.
Shen Yiran suppressed the bitterness in his heart and carefully observed the symptoms of each sick soldier. Their symptoms included persistent high fever, constant cough, extreme physical weakness, etc. The disease spread very quickly and many patients had developed serious illness.
Right now, isolating the sick soldiers is an urgent task.
Shen Yiran took a deep breath, pulled Ren Jingzhi and walked out of the tent quickly.
Banxia stopped talking immediately when she saw Shen Yiran and the other person coming out.
Shen Yiran said solemnly: "The soldiers are infected with an extremely dangerous disease, which is highly contagious and can be spread through contact and air.
In order to quickly stop the spread of the disease, I need an empty tent to store medicines, and then you can assign me 200 healthy soldiers, and I want them to cooperate with me in isolating the personnel."
When everyone heard this, they were confused. Shen Yiran had nothing in his hands, but he said he wanted to use the tent to store medicine.
But they knew very well that since Shen Yiran made such a request, she must have her reasons.
So, Ren Jingzhi didn't hesitate at all, nor did he ask any more questions. He just nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, don't worry, I'll arrange it right away."
Suddenly, Ren Jingzhi looked at Shen Yiran again, "Ranran, let's go check on the Sixth Prince first, he still has a high fever."
Shen Yiran was shocked when she heard this. She knew how serious the impact of the marshal's illness would be in the military camp, so she hurriedly said, "Then let's go quickly."
Ren Jingzhi said to Lin Bei, "Lin Bei, please make arrangements according to the Crown Princess's request just now."
Then, everyone walked towards the main tent.
When Yu Gongyu saw Shen Yiran, he was also very excited, "Sister-in-law, you caught up with me. When did you set out? How come you are here so soon?"
