Rebirth: Phoenix Riding the Ninth Heaven

Wang Yuyan felt a sense of relief upon hearing this, knowing her efforts had not been in vain. She solemnly instructed the imperial physicians, "You must serve the Crown Prince with all your heart and soul. If he recovers successfully, he will surely be generously rewarded!"

Upon hearing this, the imperial physician kowtowed and said, "Empress Kun has passed away. We will do our best to treat the eldest prince."

As Wang Yuyan and the imperial physicians worked together to rescue the eldest prince, a large group of imperial guards suddenly surged in, sealing off the Chaoyang Palace where Wang Yuyan was staying. These guards, swords in hand, wore solemn expressions, as if facing a formidable enemy. They quickly occupied every entrance and exit of the palace, blocking all possible escape routes, forming a tight perimeter.

Wang Yuyan was extremely angry when she saw the Imperial Guards surrounding her Chaoyang store. This was Emperor Qian's love for her. He didn't say anything or do anything, but just sent the Imperial Guards to surround the place without even saying a word to her. Could it be that the couple had no feelings for each other at all after all these years?

The leading guard bowed respectfully to Empress Kun, then prostrated himself on the ground. "Empress Kun!" His voice was steady and resolute, carrying an irresistible authority. He then spoke solemnly, "We are following the orders of Emperor Qian to tightly surround this place. No one is allowed to enter or leave. From now on, only entry is allowed, no leaving."

When Wang Yuyan heard this, her face turned red with anger. She asked loudly and angrily: "What have we done wrong? They actually surrounded this place without even saying hello!" Her eyes flashed with anger, and she was obviously very dissatisfied and puzzled by this sudden situation.

At this time, the leader of the imperial guards stepped forward and explained with a serious expression: "Empress Kun, the Emperor Qian received a secret report that the eldest prince has contracted smallpox. According to palace regulations, he should be locked up immediately or sent out of the palace. But the Emperor Qian, taking into account the deep father-son relationship between the eldest prince and the emperor, decided to temporarily place him under house arrest in the palace, and no one is allowed to go out." His voice was low and powerful, revealing a determination that could not be disobeyed.

Wang Yuyan was extremely discouraged when she heard the leader of the army conveying Huang's reluctance. He didn't even say he was willing to do so. How could there be a father-son relationship? Although she thought so in her heart, she didn't show it on her face. She said to the leader of the imperial army lightly, "You are also following orders. I know what to do. You just keep guard and I won't make things difficult for you."

After hearing Wang Yuyan's answer, the leader of the imperial guards led his men to surround Chaoyang Palace tightly, not letting anyone out. Wang Yuyan looked at the world around her and found that she couldn't even get out. She felt extremely sad. She had been pursuing the love between husband and wife and children all her life, but God had only given her half, and now he was taking back the other half.

Wang Yuyan absolutely couldn't let this happen! She secretly made up her mind to find a way to protect herself and her son. But the most important thing right now was to cure the emperor's illness first. Thinking of this, she quickly gathered her mind, adjusted her emotions, and hid her inner anxiety and uneasiness.

Her face regained its usual calmness and composure, as if nothing had happened. Then, she turned and slowly walked back into the house, her steps firm and powerful.

Upon entering the house, Wang Yuyan instructed Nanny Li to go to the small kitchen and prepare some easily digestible snacks, which she personally brought to the eldest prince. She knew that the eldest prince had just woken up and was weak, so he would definitely be hungry. Only by letting him eat something to replenish his energy would he be better able to fight the disease. If he didn't even have the energy to eat, how could he possibly overcome this sudden illness?

Wang Yuyan's eyes were filled with concern and worry, but her tone was unusually calm, revealing a strong determination. She knew that as a mother, she must remain calm and rational in order to give her children confidence and hope.

Under Wang Yuyan's meticulous care and the active treatment of the imperial physicians, the prince gradually recovered his energy and was able to sit up and eat after a comprehensive treatment of internal administration, external application and medicinal baths, which impressed even the imperial physicians at this feast.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, the eldest prince's condition finally stabilized. Wang Yuyan and the imperial physicians breathed a sigh of relief.

However, they knew the battle was not over. Smallpox was a stubborn disease that required constant care and observation.

Wang Yuyan was determined to stay by the eldest prince's side day and night, meticulously tending to his every detail. She fed him gently, meticulously cleaned his body, and patiently chatted with him, letting him feel the boundless love of a mother. The imperial physicians were even more cautious, meticulously preparing various herbal remedies and constantly monitoring the eldest prince's condition.

Time passed, and the eldest prince's health gradually improved. His smile returned to his face, filling Wang Yuyan with joy and gratitude. After this difficult period, Wang Yuyan became stronger and braver, deeply understanding the power of a mother's love. She also gained admiration for the imperial physicians' superb skills.

With the eldest prince's recovery, Chaoyang Palace finally returned to its former tranquility. Wang Yuyan, with a grateful heart, silently guarded this precious happiness.

After a month of meticulous treatment and recuperation, the eldest prince's physical condition has improved significantly. Although he has not yet fully recovered to his peak condition, he has made gratifying progress. His body functions are gradually returning to normal, and his movements are becoming more relaxed.

However, due to the severity of his illness, the eldest prince is still somewhat weak and needs further rehabilitation training to improve his physical fitness. In addition, the eldest prince still has some acne scars on his body. These acne scars are traces of the disease, which, although not very beautiful, are not harmful to his health.

However, the most worrying aspect is the smallpox scars on the eldest prince's face. These scars not only affect his appearance but may also have a negative impact on his psychology. After all, for a prince who values ​​appearance, facial blemishes could cause him to feel inferior and insecure. Therefore, how to help the eldest prince overcome his psychological barriers and rebuild his self-confidence will become a key focus in the future.

Wang Yuyan was afraid that the eldest prince would see the scars on her face and that he would give up on himself, so she slowly walked up to him, gently stroked his face, and said softly, "My son, you don't have to worry too much about the scars on your face. The imperial doctors and the imperial doctors have already started researching treatments. I believe they will be able to develop an effective ointment to help you remove these scars. You have just recovered and are still very weak. The most important thing now is to rest well and take care of yourself. Don't worry too much about these external problems."

Although the eldest prince had regained consciousness, his face remained frighteningly pale, making the already hideous pimples even more repulsive and terrifying. The eldest prince, fully aware of his mother's worries, held her hand tightly, looking at her firmly, "Mother, you don't have to worry about these scars on my face. To me, they are just trivial matters."

Queen Kun gently stroked her son's face, her eyes filled with heartache and helplessness. The eldest prince smiled and consoled her, "Mother, didn't you tell me the imperial physicians are working hard on developing an ointment to remove the scars? I believe it won't be long before my face returns to its original state."

Queen Kun nodded slightly, a glint of hope in her eyes. "Yes, my child, the doctors will do their best. We must trust their skills, and we must also trust your strength." The eldest prince nodded vigorously. He knew he couldn't let his mother down, nor could he disappoint everyone's expectations. He secretly made up his mind to recover quickly and return to his energetic self.

Two months later, Wang Yuyan also heard some news from outside. No one in the entire imperial city had smallpox, only the eldest prince had it. He asked the imperial physician how smallpox was transmitted.

The smallpox virus can also be transmitted through direct contact with secretions from a sick person's rash or sores. For example, touching a pustules or dry scabs on a sick person's broken skin and then touching one's own skin or mucous membranes can introduce the virus. Indirect contact transmission: Contaminated items, such as clothing, bedding, or towels, can also serve as a medium for transmission if they are contaminated with the virus. When healthy people touch these items, the virus can be transferred to their skin or mucous membranes, especially areas with open wounds or broken skin, increasing the risk of infection.

Upon receiving the news, Empress Kun immediately rushed to her bedroom. She looked at the child in front of her, her heart filled with worry and confusion. "The imperial physician said you had smallpox, but you're the only one in the palace with smallpox. Everyone else is fine. So how did you contract this disease?" Empress Kun frowned, her tone filled with concern.

The eldest prince lay on the couch. After hearing his mother's words, he tried to recall his experiences before he fell ill. His voice was weak and hoarse, "I remember one day, someone in the school placed a strange doll on my desk. I thought it was quite novel, so I played with it for a while. Later, I asked everyone in the school and they said it wasn't mine. In the end, I had no choice but to leave it on my desk. I told the little palace maid next to me to deal with it. I don't know where the doll went.

After hearing the eldest prince's description, Queen Kun's heart tightened. Could someone have deliberately poisoned him? She quickly asked, "What happened after that? Did you meet anyone or eat anything?" The eldest prince shook his head, a trace of confusion in his eyes. "I don't know. I just felt very uncomfortable and then fell ill."

Queen Kun caressed the eldest prince's forehead with heartache and comforted him softly, "Don't be afraid, your mother will find the cause of your illness and make you get better as soon as possible. Now, you have a good rest and don't think too much." After that, the queen turned and left the bedroom. She decided to investigate the matter herself and must find out the mastermind behind it.
