Yixiu is reborn, fights against her elder sister, and becomes the queen mother

Xianfu Palace

Concubine Jing stood in front of Shen Meizhuang with an embarrassed look on her face, and patiently dissuaded her, "Sister, the epidemic is serious outside right now, and the Empress has specifically instructed not to go out to avoid infection. Concubine Wan is naturally being taken care of by the imperial physicians, so even if you go, you won't be able to help much!"

Cai Yue, who was beside Shen Meizhuang, also tried to persuade her, "Yes, young lady. We are not imperial physicians, and we don't understand these things. How can we help if we go? What if the epidemic spreads to our palace? What will happen to Xianfu Palace then?"

Shen Meizhuang thought about it again and again, and finally she made up her mind. She knelt on the ground and paid her respects to Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing was shocked and wanted to help her up, but Shen Meizhuang pushed her away.

Concubine Jing said helplessly, "Sister, what are you doing? It's not that I don't want you to go to Suiyuxuan to visit Concubine Wan, but it's really too dangerous. The epidemic was fatal. If you come back and bring the epidemic to Xianfu Palace, what will happen to everyone in the palace? And won't it be difficult for me if the Empress comes to question you in the future? Dear sister, please take it as a plea from your elder sister, don't go out."

Shen Meizhuang lowered her head, her eyes fixed, and she spoke in a firm tone, "I thank Concubine Jing for her concern, but I am close friends with Concubine Wan. I know this trip is a life-or-death experience, so I will stay at Suiyuxuan to take care of Concubine Wan and will not put her in any difficult position."

Concubine Jing sighed in worry. She said helplessly, "Why are you doing this? The Empress must have known about Concubine Wan's situation. She will definitely send the imperial physician to treat her. Why are you doing this?"

Concubine Jing tried to persuade her again and again, but Shen Meiyu still insisted on visiting Concubine Wan. In desperation, Concubine Jing could only ask the palace maids to report to Concubine Yixiu and let the Queen make a decision.

Yixiu agreed to Shen Meizhuang's request. Perhaps she did not understand the deep love between sisters in the past, but now if the virtuous concubine of Yongshou Palace was sick with the epidemic, she would rush to visit her in person. Otherwise, how could she feel at ease?

Jianqiu smiled and exclaimed, "I didn't expect the sisterly love between Huipin and Wan Guiren to be so deep. It's really rare to find such true love in this deep palace."

Yixiu nodded and said, "Yes. By the way, how is Yongshou Palace? Yongshou Palace is usually sealed off, so this epidemic shouldn't have any impact on her, right? We must thoroughly disinfect and disinfect the virus, and we must not let anything happen to Concubine Xian."

Jian Qiu smiled and replied, "What a coincidence! I was just thinking about returning to the Empress' Yongshou Palace, and the Consort Xian sent someone to inquire about the Empress's recent situation and repeatedly instructed me to take good care of her. Although the epidemic in the palace is serious and requires the Empress's care, the Empress must also take care of herself and not get sick from exhaustion."

Listening to Concubine Xian's caring words, Yixiu felt warm in her heart. This time, she was no longer alone.

After inquiring about Concubine Xian's affairs, Yixiu asked, "What about the Crown Prince? Even in a place as heavily guarded as the palace, he's coming in such a menacing manner. What about outside the palace..."

Jianqiu's expression froze, and she shook her head helplessly, "Because of the epidemic, many messages cannot be delivered. I haven't received any news from the Crown Prince."

Yixiu showed a look of disappointment, but she also knew that as the Empress of the Central Palace, she could not just take care of herself at this moment. If she opened the palace gate indiscriminately because of her concern for the Crown Prince and caused a bigger epidemic in the palace, then she would really harm everyone in the palace.

However, Yixiu's worries were unnecessary. Honghui was a time traveler after all, and he did a better job than anyone else in epidemic prevention.

East Palace

The eunuch Xiao Lizi beside Honghui looked at the strange object with two strings in his hand and asked, "Prince, what is this? Why did you suddenly ask the maids from the East Palace to make these things?"

Unexpectedly, Honghui actually put that thing directly on his face. "This thing is called a mask. I specially found two layers of fine gauze and covered it with a layer of cotton cloth. Although I don't know if it will work, it's better than nothing."

As he spoke, he handed the mask to Leo.

"You should hurry up and take this with you, just like me, and then distribute it to everyone in the East Palace."

Although Little Leo was very confused, he still obeyed his master's orders unwaveringly.

The prince was really weird. First, he had people spray the aged wine all over the East Palace, and then he used the gauze and cotton cloth in the warehouse to make these things.

Although they are not short of this money, it is still a lot of hard-earned money. Take those aged wines, for example, they spend them every day as if they were free. This is too extravagant.

Although Honghui is a time traveler, he does not know medicine and can only rely on some basic modern common sense to deal with this epidemic.

Fortunately, these practices were useful and achieved good results throughout the Eastern Palace.

Honghui was very happy and immediately wrote these things into a memorial and handed it to the emperor.

The emperor had been extremely busy with the epidemic recently, and the prince's memorial finally solved his urgent problem. He immediately issued an edict, ordering his subordinates to follow suit.

First, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was asked to work overtime to produce masks, and then some aged wine was purchased from all over to disinfect the main roads in the capital.

The prince also specifically mentioned in the memorial that if it is not necessary, try not to go out and contact people, drink more boiled hot water, separate people with the epidemic from those who are not, and even isolate people who have had contact with people with the epidemic.

This method quickly achieved initial results, and people from all walks of life in the court and the country were all impressed by the prince's actions.

Nian Gengyao and his party wilted every day like eggplants hit by frost.

When Concubine Hua learned about it, she immediately summoned her trusted imperial physicians to look through medical books overnight, trying to find a prescription to treat the epidemic.

Yikun Palace

"It's been so long, what's the point of me keeping you around? How come the Crown Prince can come up with so many ideas, but you haven't thought of any?"

When Concubine Hua saw the two brothers Jiang Shen and Jiang Cheng looking through medical books and discussing, but they had not come up with any results after several days, she became furious.

Jiang Cheng was also very helpless. "The methods proposed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince are simply unheard of. I am stupid and can only try my best to look them up in a book every day, but..."

Although Jiang Shen didn't say anything, he also bowed in agreement.

Concubine Hua rolled her eyes, picked up the medical book on the table, and flipped through it quickly. "What a waste! I will search with you. Because the Crown Prince was the first to propose it, the Emperor has already praised him in the court. If you can't come up with anything, you will go to see this brother with your heads held high!"
