"Please seal up the Yingcuitang. Those who serve the fourth prince are not allowed to leave the Yingcuitang. Now, please ask Imperial Physician Zeng to come over immediately. After checking the fourth prince first, come and see the second princess. Hurry!"

Although panicked, don't panic.

Fang Yun lived in the main hall of Yuzhang Palace. There were also two small courtyards in the palace, Ningzhi Pavilion and Yingcuitang.

The second princess lives in Ningzhi Pavilion, and the fourth prince lives in Yingcuitang.

Now we should seal Yingcuitang first to avoid being overcrowded and getting infected.

It is also the same reason why Imperial Physician Zeng first checked on the fourth prince and then went to see the second princess.

The royal heir is naturally more important than the concubines.

When news came out that Song Liangyuan had smallpox during the day, the queen just ordered the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat her, and sealed off her residence without going to check the situation.

But after the second princess had a fever and called the imperial doctor, the queen immediately got up and came over even though it was midnight.

Of course, no matter what they thought, the other concubines in the harem had to get up and come over to have a look.

Soon, as soon as the queen arrived at the entrance of Yuzhang Palace, Pei Yao also arrived.

The two came in together.

At that time, Fang Yun was standing anxiously at the door of Ningzhi Pavilion. When he saw the two of them, he also hurriedly saluted.

"How is the child?" Pei Yao waved his hand and frowned.

Fang Yun shook his head, "Mr. Zeng is watching inside and hasn't spread the word yet."

Seeing that she was anxious and nervous, Pei Yao comforted her in a low voice.

"Don't be afraid, there is an imperial doctor, and I am here too. Nothing will happen to you."

"Yes." Fang Yun nodded, and finally said, "The emperor and the empress might as well go to the main hall and sit and wait. I don't know what is going on with the princess inside."

She said this, but Pei Yao didn't agree.

"No need, I'll just stand here, it doesn't matter."

"Then why don't you ask someone to bring a chair and let the emperor sit on the porch."

The queen on the side suggested softly.

Fang Yun immediately ordered Yan Wei to take people to move the seats.

Not long after, the other concubines in the harem also arrived and stood in the courtyard.

After waiting for a while, Dr. Zeng came out of the room with a scarf tied on his face, his brows furrowed.

"How is the princess?"

Fang Yun hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

Although she is not her biological child, the second princess was given to her to raise as soon as she was born. After so many years, it is better than her biological child.

How can I not be anxious?

Dr. Zeng sighed and shook his head, "I'm afraid the princess has contracted smallpox. Children get sick more quickly and there is already a rash on their body."

As soon as these words came out, Fang Yun's heart trembled and his body swayed.

"Mom, be careful!" Qingrong hurriedly supported the person.

But Fang Yun couldn't care less and hurriedly asked.

"How is the child's condition now? How should I use medicine? Can it be cured? Sir, please think of something!"

"I will do my best to treat the princess. It's better for your Majesty to take shelter first."

Imperial Physician Zeng cupped his hands and said in a deep voice.

At this moment, Pei Yao also stepped forward and comforted Fang Yun softly.

"With the imperial doctor here, the child will be fine. You are weak, and the fourth prince is even more so. Now that the second princess has contracted smallpox, it is really urgent for you and the fourth prince to move out of Yuzhang Palace for shelter."

Pei Yao has already gotten sick once, but he can't bear to get sick again.

The queen also got up and came forward. "Yes, I know that you are distressed and anxious, but this disease is not an ordinary disease and is contagious. You have to take care of your own health and that of the Fourth Prince."

"But Your Majesty, the palms and backs of your hands are all flesh. I am worried about the fourth prince, but why are you not worried about the second princess? They are both my children. How can I leave the second princess here alone at this time!"

Fang Yun's eyes were red and he was about to cry.

Pei Yao also had a gloomy look on his face, but he still held her hand and spoke firmly.

"I know you are worried, but you have to take care of your own health. What if something happens to you? What if the Fourth Prince is alone? Listen to me, pack your things immediately tonight and move to another place, Second Princess Here, leave it to the imperial doctor."

The queen also immediately said, "Although the Zijin Palace next to Yuzhang Palace is smaller, it is enough to live in, and it is clean and tidy inside. Why don't Concubine Zhao move there first for shelter."

With their arrangements, Fang Yun also weighed the pros and cons in his heart and knew that he could not be willful at this moment.
He had no choice but to temporarily move out of Yuzhang Palace with the fourth prince.

After a whole night of tossing, Fang Yun couldn't sleep a wink.

The next day, news came from the queen that everyone was tired last night and there was no need to come to say hello today.

Fang Yun was naturally eager for this.

He cheered up, went to the entrance of Yuzhang Palace, asked about the situation of the second princess, and ordered someone to go to Song Liangyuan's place.

Song Liangyuan has been following her, and she should take care of her at this time.

A disease like smallpox requires someone to take careful care of it to have a greater chance of being cured. Song Liangyuan is not favored. If Fang Yun ignores her, I am afraid that the people below will not do their best.

But just this care made her realize that something was wrong.

After Yanwei came back, he finished disinfecting and went into the room to reply.

"The slave just went to deliver something to Song Liangyuan. Nian Shuang was talking to the slave through the door, and her voice was tired. She said that Song Liangyuan's illness was also strange. There were few people serving them, and she found that there was someone infected with smallpox in Huanyi Bureau. At that time, he came just like us at Yuzhang Palace and washed his clothes by himself. I really don’t know where the disease came from."

"Since there was no contact with the Huanyi Bureau, how could he be infected with smallpox? Moreover, Nian Shuang, who is the personal attendant, is fine. It can be seen that Song Liangyuan must have had closer contact with the sick person."

Qingrong chatted beside him.

"Perhaps Song Liangyuan is weak?" Yan Wei thought for a while, "Now, no one else around Song Liangyuan is infected."

The two maids were talking to each other, and Fang Yoon suddenly raised his head.

"Greetings as usual, Song Liangyuan rarely talks, and the Jiaofang Palace is spacious and breathable, so the concubines are not infected. But besides me, has Song Liangyuan been in contact with anyone in private these past few days?"

Yanwei glanced at her, "I don't know, I'll go and find out now."

Fang Yun nodded.

This matter was not difficult to find out. Soon Yan Wei came back and said that when Song Liangyuan came to Yuzhang Palace two days ago, she met Xie Meiren on the road and was warmly invited by Xie Meiren to have a snack.

Apart from this, no one else had met Song Liangyuan in private.

"Beautiful Xie, haven't you been complaining of illness these past two days?" Qingrong frowned.

Yan Wei nodded, "It was after inviting Song Liangyuan to have some snacks that she complained of illness the next day."

Speaking of this, Yan Wei's voice became smaller and smaller, but his eyes gradually opened a little wider.

After looking at Qingrong, the two maids quickly looked at Fang Yun and said in unison.

"Xie Meiren has a problem?!"

"I don't dare to make arbitrary conclusions." Fang Yun's face darkened a bit, "Take someone to the Taiyuan Hospital to check the pulse of Yichungong, not only Xie Meiren, but also Wan Liangyuan."

If it was really someone who had a wrong idea and did it deliberately.

I'm afraid that Xie Meiren's brain is not enough. There is a high probability that someone has given her an idea.

But this time, some problems were indeed discovered.

Xie Meiren only said that she was dizzy and nauseated, but there was no other abnormality. The medicine she took was just to warm up and dispel the cold, which could be regarded as daily maintenance, but Wan Liangyuan had no problem.

It was written clearly on the pulse chart that fever was a sign of wind and cold entering the body, and appropriate medicine was also used.

After hearing the report, Fang Yun's eyes dimmed, and he left Wan Liangyuan aside and sent someone to check on Beauty Xie's movements immediately.
