Chapter 268 Infection

"I heard that the Seventh Prince is sick?" As soon as Concubine Yu sat down, Concubine Xian smiled.

"Yes, I'm a little sick, I've gone to see it!" Concubine Yu said respectfully.

"Concubine Yu, you did not disappoint me. If I get what I want this time, it will be your credit!" Concubine Xian smiled.

"The Empress misunderstood. I did not give the little clothes to the seventh prince, but because the two little clothes were different, I was recognized by Concubine Ling." Concubine Yu said quickly.

A strange light flashed in Concubine Xian's eyes and said with a smile: "Don't hide it from me, okay, I know that you are afraid that people will cause trouble if they know. This idea was originally produced by me. We are grasshoppers on a vine. Do you think I will betray you?"

"Empress, I'm really not a concubine!" Concubine Yu was anxious.

Concubine Xian looked at her and sneered, "So what? Anyway, the Seventh Prince can survive if he gets smallpox. It depends on God. Not everyone has the luck of the Saint Ancestor Kangxi. Not only did he survive, he also won the throne!"

Concubine Yu said with horror: "Empress, the Seventh Prince is just getting hot, not smallpox, he..." Concubine Yu said this and suddenly had a terrible thought flashed in her heart. She suddenly stopped and then she collapsed from the chair to the ground.

"Whether it is smallpox, it will be known in at most two days!" Concubine Xian sneered.

"No, no, no, it's impossible, how could he get smallpox? I clearly failed!" Concubine Yu was so scared that she murmured to herself.

Concubine Xian glanced at her, her eyes full of mockery, and then said to Mu Yun: "I am tired, help me rest for a while!"

"Yes, Empress!" Mu Yun responded, and the master and servant left Concubine Yu and went to the bedroom.

In Changchun Palace, several imperial physicians were busy, with the emperor and the empress on the side, and both of them were a little anxious, especially the empress, who was very anxious.

"Emperor, will Yongcong have any accidents?" the queen said tremblingly.

"No, the child will inevitably get sick. It will be fine in two days!" The emperor held the queen's hand and comforted softly.

"Yeah!" the queen responded, but the worries in her heart continued to increase. Since her birth, her Yongcong has been very healthy, almost never got sick, and has never been as serious as it is now.

Because the Seventh Prince was sick, the queen saved everyone from the morning and evening and took care of the Seventh Prince. Wei Ning'er was a little worried and went to Changchun Palace early the next morning.

The queen was worried about the Seventh Prince, so she didn't close her eyes all night and stayed outside the Seventh Prince's house early in the morning.

"Empress, Empress Ling is here!" Chu Xia whispered in the queen's ear.

"Yeah!" The queen nodded gently.

After a while, Wei Ning'er walked in with Chuxia.

Looking at the queen's red eyes due to fatigue, Wei Ning'er felt a little bitter in her heart. She stepped forward and invited An Cai and said softly: "Empress, it's getting late, so you can have a meal first!"

"I can't eat it. After another night, Yongcong became more and more feverish. I am afraid that he can't hold on!" When the queen said this, her eyes were slightly sour and she almost burst into tears.

At this moment, Chengbi walked up from outside and whispered: "Empress, the Seventh Prince's wet nurse and the palace maid who served him were also hot and could not get up. Should I send the imperial physician to take a look?"

When the queen heard this, her heart trembled, and an ominous premonition arose, so she asked someone to go to the house to call the hospital envoy, Doctor Li.

"Doctor Li, the nanny and palace maid of the Seventh Prince are also sick. Go and have a look!" the queen whispered.

When Doctor Li heard this, his face suddenly turned a little ugly. He immediately took an imperial physician with him. About two quarters of an hour later, Doctor Li returned, and his expression was unprecedentedly serious.

"Empress, please go back to the bedroom and avoid it for a while." Doctor Li suddenly knelt on the ground and said tremblingly.

"What happened?" the queen raised her heart.

"Empress, the Seventh Prince may have been infected with smallpox!" Doctor Li was trembling all over when he said this.

When the queen heard this, she felt that the eyes were dark and she suddenly fainted.

"Empress!" Wei Ning'er and Chu Xia quickly supported her and immediately sent her back to the bedroom. After about half an hour, the emperor rushed over to hear the news.

"Emperor!" Wei Ning'er immediately stood up when she saw the emperor coming.

"Have the queen woke up yet?" the emperor asked anxiously.

Wei Ning'er shook her head gently: "The imperial physician said that the Empress was too sad and induced a chronic disease!"

When the emperor heard this, his face looked extremely ugly. He pondered for a moment before saying, "The imperial physician said that Yongcong was infected with smallpox?"

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and responded.

When the emperor heard this, he did not say anything, but hurried out of the bedroom. Wei Ning'er thought for a moment and followed him. After a while, he heard the emperor's angry scolding, and thought he was scolding several imperial physicians.

"My little master, don't go over!" Bingruo was afraid that she would go in, so he gently pulled her.

Wei Ning'er nodded gently and returned to the queen's bedroom and stood beside her.

Soon, Wei Ning'er heard Chu Xia say that the side hall where the Seventh Prince was located was blocked by the emperor's order, and no one was allowed to approach. The servants who originally served the Seventh Prince were also secretly sent away. Now they are serving the people sent by the emperor themselves, and they are the confidants around the emperor.

Smallpox is extremely terrifying. If you are not careful, you will take your life and it is very easy to spread to others. In order to make the harem peaceful, the emperor issued an order not to allow the servants of Changchun Palace to leave the Changchun Palace for half a step, and it seemed to have put the entire Changchun Palace under strict supervision.

Wei Ning'er looked at the queen who was still unconscious and her eyes were slightly sore. The disaster suddenly fell to Changchun Palace and the seventh prince. How could the queen bear it?

Just when Wei Ning'er was in great grief, the emperor came into the bedroom.

"Why are you still here? Take your people out of Changchun Palace!" The emperor frowned slightly. At this moment, he seemed very irritable, and his eyes were unprecedentedly impatient.

"Emperor, I want to stay with the Empress!" Wei Ning'er looked up at the emperor, without any cowardice in her eyes.

"I'm confused, the imperial physician said that Yongcong and the wet nurse had rashes on their bodies, and a little palace maid also had fever. It's certain that it was smallpox. There may be someone in Changchun Palace who has also been infected with smallpox, but it has not yet occurred. Why are you staying here? Are you looking for death?" The emperor pulled her up from the ground, and then said to Bing Ruo beside him: "Help your master return to Yanxi Palace!"

"Emperor!" Wei Ning'er held the emperor's hand tightly: "I won't leave!"

"Go back, without my will, you are not allowed to leave Yanxi Palace, otherwise you will be disrespectful to the order!" The emperor gently pushed her away.

Wei Ning'er was unwilling to leave, so she broke free from Bingruo's hand, and was about to ask the emperor again, but there was a message from the eunuch outside.

"The Empress Dowager is here!"

The emperor's expression changed and he immediately went up to meet him.

"Emperor, I heard that the Seventh Prince has been infected with smallpox!" The Empress Dowager's face turned slightly pale, and she asked anxiously as soon as she came in.

"Yes!" The emperor nodded solemnly.
