smallpox?!

How could it be smallpox? !

Hua Wu gasped.

Smallpox was a terminal illness in ancient times!

After hearing what Hua Wu said, Concubine Wei and others behind her were so frightened that they took a step back involuntarily, looking at Concubine Liu with eyes full of astonishment and fear.

"How could it be smallpox?"

"What...what should I do?"

Lady Liu's voice trembled a little, and tears came out of her eyes with fear.

"My lady, let's go..."

"This... this smallpox is contagious..."

Concubine Wei said this with trembling hands and weak legs.

Smallpox is fatal!

She is still so young, she doesn't want to die!

When the imperial physician told them it was smallpox, the entire Lanxin Palace fell into panic. Everyone was terrified and their faces turned pale. Some palace maids even fell to the ground with weak legs.

After being shocked, Hua Wu suppressed her inner panic and signaled the imperial physician to examine and prescribe medicine for Concubine Liu first. She led the group out of Concubine Liu's bedroom and came to the main hall of Lanxin Palace.

Noble Lady Liu was only a sixth-rank concubine and lived in a side hall. Apart from Noble Lady Liu, no other concubines lived in the Lanxin Palace, so the main hall was always empty.

After arriving at the main hall, Concubine Liu and the others huddled around Hua Wu like quails, looking at her eagerly.

Jinzhan hated Yutan to death.

This Yu Tan couldn't even do things clearly, and he rashly put his own queen in danger.

Concubine Liu is sick. Find out what's wrong with her and then report back!

If she knew it was smallpox, why would her mother come to see patient Liu? !

Now, my queen has seen Concubine Liu, and I don’t know if she will be infected with smallpox...

What if I get infected too?!

"My lady, let's go..."

Jinzhan urged anxiously.

She didn't want her queen to stay in the Lanxin Palace for even a moment.

"Yes! Yes!"

"My Lady, this... this is smallpox, let's leave quickly..."

Liu Cairen nodded repeatedly.

"late!"

"We have already met Lady Liu, and now we are at risk of contracting smallpox. If we return to the palace, we will only infect more people..."

In ancient times, smallpox was a highly contagious disease with strong infectivity, rapid onset and high mortality rate.

If it is not controlled properly, the entire palace will be in danger.

Hua Wu smiled bitterly, quickly gathered his thoughts, and said calmly: "From now on, the Lanxin Palace is sealed! No one is allowed to enter, but not leave!"

"Liu Cairen, take Concubine Wei and a few others to make masks. The more the better."

"How to make a mask, I will teach you!"

"It protects us and makes us less likely to get smallpox!"

"Xiao Linzi, find a way to send a message to the emperor. Concubine Liu has been infected with smallpox. The Lanxin Palace is closed! Let the emperor select all the palace maids who have had smallpox to serve in the Lanxin Palace..."

……

Orders came out one after another from Hua Wu's mouth.

Concubine Wei was a little at a loss.

She was very scared, her hands were shaking, she wanted to go back to the palace and ask the imperial physician to examine her... But, Imperial Concubine Chen didn't move at all, so she didn't dare to move either.

Concubine Wei hated herself to death at this moment.

Why did she rush to see Concubine Liu in such a hurry? What did Concubine Liu's health have to do with her? !

Of course, she would never admit that she was just here to laugh at the joke.

She was jealous that Concubine Liu could receive Concubine Chen's unremitting help, and she only hated that she could not dance.

So, when she heard that Concubine Liu was ill and couldn't dance, her first reaction was happiness.

Although she looked worried, she was actually very happy.

Thinking that Concubine Liu was no longer able to survive, did she have a chance?

However, she only thought about it secretly and never did anything bad, so why did she have to encounter such a deadly plague as smallpox? !

Concubine Dou's expression was even uglier than Concubine Wei's.

She wanted to run too.

What does it matter to her whether other people live or die? As long as she doesn't die, it's fine!

She has plenty of money!

She can find the best imperial physician to treat her!

She didn't want to stay here, she was afraid she would die here.

However, she was just a little beauty. In front of the first-rank imperial concubine, she had no right to object. She was extremely anxious.

At this time, the palace servants of Lanxin Palace heard the news of the closure of the palace, and they immediately became a mess in the courtyard. Everyone fell into panic, and some even began to cry and wailed that they didn't want to die...

Some younger palace maids did not know the seriousness of smallpox, but the older ones had heard of the horror of smallpox. The greatest possibility was that they would not survive after the palace was sealed.

No one gave them medical treatment, so they could only be trapped in the Lanxin Palace, waiting to be infected with smallpox, and then waiting to die. Finally, they were burned to death.

Woohoo...

The crying sound reached the main hall, and a hint of joy flashed in Concubine Dou's eyes.

She hoped that the palace maids in Lanxin Palace would make the biggest noise possible so that Concubine Chen would not be able to control them and they could take the opportunity to return to the palace.

"What are you panicking about?!"

"I am here too. The Emperor will never give up the Lanxin Palace!"

"I will do my best to protect you, but you must also cooperate with me and strictly follow my orders!"

Hua Wu came out of the main hall and sternly stopped the crying palace maids. The exquisite five-phoenix embroidery on her body sparkled in the sun, looking extremely luxurious and bright.

"It's Concubine Chen!"

There was a commotion among the palace maids in Lanxin Palace, and they looked at Hua Wu with surprise.

Concubine Chen is not leaving?! She wants to stay in Lanxin Palace?!

That's great!

With Concubine Chen around, the Emperor will never give up Lanxin Palace!

The eyes of everyone in Lanxin Palace lit up again, that was the hope of life.

After calming everyone down, Hua Wu asked Concubine Liu to bring in the maid who had just gone out to greet them, and asked her in detail about the current situation in Lanxin Palace, such as how many people there were in Lanxin Palace, how many people were sick, who was serving Concubine Liu, and whether there were any palace maids in Lanxin Palace moving around outside...

……

In the Yangxin Palace, Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin looked at the Left Prime Minister who was chattering incessantly in front of him, and his body had changed countless sitting positions.

This old man must be getting old, so he is becoming more and more verbose.

It was just a little bit about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, but he couldn't get to the point after talking for a long time, which delayed him from going back to see Ah Wu...

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin's eyes fell on the Prince's Junior Tutor Ling Juechen again. Wasn't he the most annoyed by this old man's chattering? Why didn't he interrupt and summarize for the old man?

And there is Prince Yi, Xiao Jing, who looks so focused, with his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart. People who don't know him would think he is very serious, but Xiao Lin bets that he is taking the opportunity to take a nap.

If he hadn't been in charge of the Grand Zongzhengyuan, Xiao Jing would definitely not be willing to stand here and listen to the old man's nonsense.

But today, he didn't say a word.

Tsk~

Really annoying!

Just when Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin couldn't help but want to interrupt the old man Zuo Xiang, he saw the chief eunuch Qin Zhong with a pale face, coming to him in panic, and trembling voice: "Your Majesty, it's not good."

"Noble Lady Liu of the Lanxin Palace has smallpox!"

"Noble Concubine Chen went to see her, and she is also in Lanxin Palace now!"

what? !

Emperor Jinghong Xiao Lin was so shocked that he stood up suddenly and his face changed instantly.

The left prime minister was so shocked that he stopped talking.

Ling Juechen and Xiao Jing, one looked up and the other suddenly opened his eyes.
