Chapter 38 Smallpox
In the prime minister's mansion.

Bai Xi burst into the study crying, the young master had been suffering from low fever and cough for the past two days.

I asked a doctor to look at it and prescribed some antipyretic medicine, which I thought would be better.

Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, the young master passed out in class.

and……

"And what?" Bai Xiuran asked anxiously, worried about his son's health.

"And..." Baixi's forehead was dripping with sweat, he hesitated and couldn't speak.

Bai Xiuran didn't intend to ask him either, and stood up to look at Bai Chenxuan.

"Master, you can't go." Bai Xi stopped him, what should I say about this matter, the young master's face, neck, and even his body were all covered with red rashes, and the rashes continued to increase. When I saw the appearance, it was like seeing a ghost, and I fell to the ground in fright, got up in an instant and rushed out, saying that it was smallpox and it would be contagious.

"Get out of the way." Bai Xiuran's face changed suddenly. How could he not know the severity of smallpox, but no matter what, he had to go, it was his son.

"Master, you can't go." Today's Shang Xuetang has long been quarantined, and no one is allowed in. There is no one other than the young master, and someone has already passed this matter to the emperor. Hold on to the results.

How could Bai Xiuran listen to him.

In front of the gate of Shangshutang.

The members of the Bai family had already been guarding here, and they also rushed over after receiving the news.

"Xiu Ran, you can't go in." Mrs. Zhao, Bai Xiuran's mother, stopped him. She was also very worried about her grandson's condition, but she must not let her son take risks at this time.

Otherwise, the grandson will be gone, and the son will join in, and she will not want to live anymore.

"Mother, I have to go in." Bai Xiuran looked at her firmly, regardless of whether it was smallpox or not, he had to go in.

"No." Madam Zhao burst into tears, "Let's wait for the imperial doctor to come, and then go in?"

"Do not."

His decision is never changed by anyone.

Mrs. Zhao is now completely tearful. This child grew up beside the old matriarch. Although she respects her very much, she knows that this child is very strange to her.

"Xiu Ran, what are you doing?"

When Mrs. Bai saw that her favorite grandson was about to enter the door, she was frightened out of her wits, and hurriedly sent someone to stop him.

"Taijun, Xuan'er is inside, I have to go in."

Why didn't Mrs. Bai know that her beloved little great-grandson was in there, but everyone said that Chen Xuan had smallpox, how could she let Bai Xiuran in, "I'll go, anyway, I'm already old, so I'm still alive." Enough."

"No."

Several members of the Bai family stopped them one after another. The old lady is old, how could she let her go.

"I'll go." Bai Liyang stood up, as Bai Xiuran's father and Bai Chenxuan's grandfather, it was more appropriate for him to go.

"No, I'll go." How could Bai Xiuran agree.

"I go."

"I go."

"I go."

Several members of the Bai family clamored to go in.

"Are you going in or not?" Gu Qingzhi got out of the sedan chair with a belch, and heard a group of people scrambling to get in from afar, and interrupted politely, "If you don't go in, I will go in."

In the evening, I drank two glasses of wine with Dr. Qiao, and I was bragging.

The monkey came over in a panic, and rumors spread that Prime Minister Bai's youngest son had smallpox, which was contagious. Many people were afraid to stay in Xiangling, and wanted to go out and hide for a few days.

Gu Qingzhi listened funny, how could this be possible.

"How is this impossible? Doctor Zheng diagnosed it himself. He ran back in fright and washed himself inside and out three times. He also washed himself at home, lest he would get infected." Monkey said vividly what he had heard.

The wine was not finished, so she came over.

"Why are you here?" Bai Xiuran frowned, not wanting to have anything to do with her.

"See my son." Gu Qingzhi replied as a matter of course.

"Hmph, that's really kind." Bai Yao hummed dissatisfiedly.

"You go back." Although she was surprised that she could come, Bai Xiuran didn't appreciate it at all.

"No." Gu Qingzhi replied two words lightly, and walked step by step to the door of Shangshutang. Qianqian pushed the door with his index finger, and only heard a creak, and the door opened.

The courtyard was quiet, as if shrouded in the shadow of death.

"Miss." Zhao Huailing's heart almost jumped out of fright, my aunt, now this place is avoided like snakes and scorpions, why is she going in.

"When will the imperial doctor arrive?" Gu Qingzhi stepped into the door and asked outside.

"immediately."

"Okay, I'll wait for him inside." After saying that, without looking at the faces of the people, Shi Shiran closed the door, isolating everything outside.

Outside, Bai Xiuran's expression became complicated. For the first time in history, he couldn't understand this woman.

Inside the door, where no one saw, Gu Qingzhi secretly laughed.

It's not that she, Gu Qingzhi, has a mother's heart. According to the stories she's heard since she was a child, the child's death will definitely not happen now, and the story doesn't seem to say that he has smallpox.

"Woooo~!"

In the darkness, a very soft whimper sounded, small, like a kitten whimpering.

Bai Chenxuan was lying in the study of a master of the academy, and there was a compartment inside for resting.

After he fainted, he was sent there.

Unexpectedly, when he was in a coma, he heard an exclamation, saying that he had smallpox.

Immediately afterwards, there were all kinds of frightened screams and hurried running, and then there was no more sound.

The surroundings gradually darkened, and the room was pitch black. He lay weakly on the bed, waiting for death to come. Although he was only six years old, he had seen smallpox mentioned in a book. Once infected, he would definitely die.

After all, he is still a child, no matter how firm his heart is, he is still afraid at the moment.

The longer the time, the more frightened his heart became.

It was only at this moment that he completely collapsed and began to cry slowly.

Woohoo, I really want someone to accompany him, touch his head, and tell him it's okay...

Since he was a child, he has always envied other people's mothers who would gently touch their heads and say with a smile that they were naughty.

Although his father cared about him very much, and the Bai family loved him very much, but they were not like ordinary people, allowing him to act like a baby and mess around with him. They would say, Xuan'er, you should study hard, look at you When dad was your age, no matter how powerful he was, they would still say that etiquette is the most important thing for the members of their Bai family, and you must not mess around.

So he tried his best to be a well-behaved and sensible child.

It's just that the envy in his heart was buried somewhere deep in his heart. Thinking about it, there was only one time when he was dragged by Gu Qingzhi willfully to admire peonies in Cheng'an Temple. He was happy.

"Haha, Bai Chenxuan, you are crying, are you ashamed?"

In the darkness, Gu Qingzhi's gloating voice sounded, strangely driving away the uneasiness in his heart.

"Wow~! Why did you come here?" He didn't know how much grievance and fear were contained in these words.

A faint fragrance of flowers filled the tip of his nose, and a warm embrace embraced him. She said in a voice that he still finds the most beautiful when he thinks about it many years later, "Sorry, I'm late."
