Su Xiaolu went forward and grabbed Su Hua’s wrist.

Su Hua waited quietly. He really couldn’t stand it anymore. He swallowed and said, “Yes, yes.” Meeting Su Xiaolu’s worried eyes, Su Hua explained gently, “My throat is just a little itchy.”

Actually, it was a little itchy. He felt extremely uncomfortable and wanted to cough, but with Su Xiaolu around, he was afraid that it would make her worry.

Under Su Hua’s deliberate concealment, Su Xiaolu did not expose him. Su Hua’s pulse was weaker than during the day, but other than that, there was nothing unusual.

It was as if he had caught an ordinary cold, but how good would it be if it was just a cold?

Su Xiaolu took out the medicine bottle and poured out a pill for Su Hua. She said, “Second Brother, eat this pill. It’s getting late. Rest early.”

Su Hua nodded. He took the medicine and said gently to Su Xiaolu, “Xiaolu, don’t worry too much about me. You’ve been tired for a day. Go back and rest.”

After taking this pill, Su Hua felt much better. His itchy and painful throat clearly improved.

Su Xiaolu went back and Su Hua returned to his room to rest.

Su Xiaolu returned to the room arranged by the medicine boy to rest. She decided to check on the families of the first few people who were sick tomorrow.

Meanwhile, in the magistrate’s residence.

Constable Zhu reported what happened in the afternoon to Huang Xingliang and Zhou Zhi.

After Constable Zhu finished reporting, he stood quietly to the side.

Huang Xingliang frowned and looked at Zhou Zhi. “Second Prince, this plague is dangerous. I have no other choice. Please make a decision soon.”

When the plague broke out, Huang Xingliang reported it to the royal court. The second prince, Zhou Zhi, had just entered the city at 3 pm. He had come under orders. As for what to do with this plague, it would depend on his arrangements.

He had already told Zhou Zhi everything. Now, he only needed to wait for Zhou Zhi to speak.

Zhou Zhi’s expression was calm as he said coldly, “Seal the city completely and send more troops. Check every household strictly and remove all infected people from the area. Any patients who show signs of fever and cough will be quarantined.”

“With the Ji Shi Hall as the center, the surrounding houses will be requisitioned to house the patients. There will be four people in each room, and medicine will be given five times a day. Every patient must drink medicine, and the residences must be sprinkled with ashes every day to expel the poison. Those who disobey the order will be given three warnings. If anyone disobeys the order, the situation can be severely used as a warning to others. Any riots must be eliminated.”

Zhou Zhi ordered calmly.

Huang Xingliang heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. The second prince was a capable person. Since ancient times, plagues were prone to riots, and plagues were difficult to treat. If there was another riot, it would be even more dangerous. It would be terrifying if it was spread and eliminated.

Therefore, the person who gave the order had to be decisive. Zhou Zhi was capable of this. He was not indecisive and had arranged it very well.

They sent more troops to check the entire city.

If the city was sealed, the plague would not spread.

Huang Xingliang immediately went down to make arrangements.

Zhou Zhi instructed Jin Si beside him, “Jin Si, take the token and leave the city. Go to Su Lin and Jiang Lin and mobilize 10,000 troops to defend Furongzhou.”

Jin Si took the token and nodded. “Yes.”

With that, Jin Si left.

Zhou Zhi stood up and said to Jin Wu, who was following beside him, “Follow me to that residence to take a look. Since we’re back, we should send a message.”

God made Furongzhou suffer from a plague and trapped that person in Furongzhou…

Did the heavens pity him and give him an opportunity?

“Yes.”

Jin Wu followed Zhou Heng out and drove the carriage away.

When they arrived at the residence, Zhou Zhi got off the carriage and waited. Jin Wu went forward and knocked on the door.

The door opened quickly and Su Chong looked at Zhou Zhi warily.

“What do you want?”

Su Chong was puzzled as to why Zhou Zhi had returned. He had to be wary of Zhou Zhi’s appearance.

Zhou Zhi smiled and said, “I’m under orders to solve the plague. I know that you haven’t left the city yet, so I came to tell you that Furongzhou is going to be sealed off. Before the plague is resolved, you can’t leave home. Miss Su is working for the plague in Ji Shi Hall. I’m afraid she can’t tell you during this period of time, so I came to tell you.”

Zhou Zhi was very polite and his tone was gentle. Since Su Chong did not invite him in, he had no intention of entering.

Su Chong’s expression softened a little. He looked at Zhou Zhi. “Since you can see Xiaolu, please help me pass a message.”

Zhou Zhi smiled gently and nodded.

Su Chong looked at Zhou Zhi and said, “Please tell Xiaolu not to worry about us. Tell her to protect herself and prioritize herself.”

Zhou Zhi looked at Su Chong and nodded. “Alright, I’ll pass the message.”

Su Chong looked at Zhou Zhi. “Thank you. If you need any help, you can look for me.”

Since Zhou Zhi had helped to pass on this message, he owed him a favor.

As long as it wasn’t too much, there was no harm in him helping him do something.

Zhou Zhi smiled. “Okay.”

Zhou Zhi turned around and got into the carriage. The carriage quickly disappeared from Su Chong’s sight.

Su Chong closed the door. Behind him, in the courtyard that Zhou Zhi could not see, Liu Zijin and Zhou Heng were both there. They had also heard Zhou Zhi’s words.

“It’s fine. Brother Hua is lucky and will definitely recover. We’ll just close the door and protect ourselves so that we don’t cause more trouble for Xiaolu.”

Su Chong smiled at them.

Even though he was worried, Su Chong hid it in his heart.

Liu Zijin also said, “Yes, it will definitely be fine.”

Wang Huilan also echoed firmly, “Xiaolu is so powerful. She will definitely be fine.”

Zhou Heng patted Su Chong’s shoulder. “Let’s wait for them to return.”

All their worries were hidden in their hearts. All they could do was take care of themselves and wait. At this time, doing other things would only add to the trouble.

In the quiet street, there was only the sound of carriage wheels rolling.

Zhou Zhi got into the carriage and did not speak. When they reached the entrance of the residence, Jin Wu said, “Master, we’re here.”

Zhou Zhi got off the carriage and returned to the residence. The hot water was already prepared. He removed his clothes, removed his prosthesis, and soaked in the hot water. He closed his eyes and recalled what Su Chong had said.

She had to prioritize herself. If Su Chong thought so, what about the infected Su Hua? Would he think so too?

At the moment of life and death, in the face of benefits, was the so-called blood kinship really that tenacious?

He did not believe it. If Su Xiaolu could not find a way to treat the plague, would Su Hua really not blame her?

He didn’t believe it.

Now that the opportunity was in front of him, he would see it with his own eyes.

After taking a bath, Zhou Zhi went to bed to rest. The medicine by the bed had long been prepared. They were all pills, but there was a small bowl of them. Zhou Zhi scooped them up with a spoon and ate them. His expression did not change. Jin Wu, who was beside him, hurriedly poured a glass of water after he finished the medicine.

Zhou Zhi took a sip and put it down. He waved his hand lightly. “You may leave. Tomorrow morning, go to the Ji Shi Hall.”
