Chapter 711 The Grand Finale (2)
After talking on and on for a long time, Wei Yuhua still didn't come over, his expression became more and more ugly, and ordered Hao Dacheng: "Go and see why the princess is still not here, is she still planning to wait for the king to invite her personally?" No?"

After the words fell, there was finally a movement at the door, Duan Wangyin said angrily: "Eunuch Chang came to pass on the emperor's grandmother's edict, which represents the emperor's grandmother. What crime should you make him wait for so long?"

The person who came was not Wei Yuhua, but another woman who was tightly wrapped and only showed a pair of eyes. After she reported her family name, Duan Wang knew that she was Chunxuan, and he couldn't help but become more and more annoyed: "What are you doing in the mansion in such a tight package, are you afraid of being watched by others? What about the princess, why doesn't she come over?"

When Chunxuan heard this, she knelt on the ground with a "plop" and began to cry: "It's not that the concubine doesn't want to come, but she really can't. A few days ago, the concubine and the princess were sick, but they weren't sick. It was the little princess who contracted smallpox for some reason. At first, the mother thought that the little princess was suffering from the wind and cold, but she didn't raise any alarms. She just let the nanny take the pills. Who knew that when she got up the next day, the little princess The prince also had the same symptoms, and there were little red dots on the body of the little princess. The princess was anxious, thinking that Mama Tao was well-informed, so she called Mama Tao to come and see, she knew it was smallpox, but It's already too late now, even the concubine and the few servants around us are more or less infected."

"Everyone knows that smallpox is contagious. Those infected can survive. No one out of ten. How dare the concubine and empress enter the palace at this entrance? If it is infected again to the emperor, empress dowager and other empresses in the palace, wouldn't it be a real disaster? Death is also to be blamed..." Chunxuan was still sobbing and crying.

But when everyone in the hall heard her say the word 'smallpox', they had already scattered away from her in the shape of birds and beasts, Chang Manshou was no exception, and King Duan shouted angrily: " How on earth did Wei Shi become a mother, and she found out that it was smallpox when both of her children were infected with her! Also, since it was discovered that it was smallpox, why didn't she report it to the king, and why didn't the two children pass it on to the imperial physician? What's the matter? If they have any good or bad, this king will never give up with her!"

Chunxuan wept and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you want to tell Your Highness, why don't you want to pass on the imperial physician, but isn't Concubine Shi Fang and Jiang Ruren going to give birth, and the imperial physician said that nine out of ten babies will be boys? Originally, His Highness favored Shi Fang. The concubine and Jiang Ruren are dead. If you know that the son and the princess are both infected with smallpox, your highness still has the feeling of licking the calf in your heart. All the people in the main courtyard are left to fend for themselves? Anyway, Your Highness is honorable. Without our empress and the little princess, there are still many people who want to be Duan Wangfei and have children for His Highness. Not to mention, our manor There is a ready-made candidate waiting here, why don't we hide the news from the beginning and try to save ourselves quietly, maybe there is still a glimmer of life!"

"Nonsense!" King Duan became more and more furious when he said that, besides being furious, he also felt a little guilty, as if he had no intention of being caught by Chunxuan's words, "When did this king favor Shi and Jiang? After all, the empress is also the original wife of the king, and the two children are the eldest son and daughter of the king. How can the king let them fend for themselves! How can the Wei family be so stupid! At these times, this king will only ask you, how are the Wei family and the children of this king now?"

He also scolded Hao Dacheng, "You stupid thing, what are you doing standing there, why don't you pass it on to the imperial physician!"

"Yes, yes, yes..." Hao Dacheng hurriedly rolled on the ground and ran out as if he had just woken up from a dream.

Fang Chunxuan continued to cry: "When the empress knew it was smallpox, she immediately ordered the servants to offer sacrifices to the empress with acne, and quietly ordered someone to invite a doctor to come and prescribe medicine for herself and Xiao Shizi, the little princess, to be taken internally and externally, and for the servants. They also prescribed medicine to cure the disease, and defend themselves if they were not infected, but even so, there are still more than a dozen people in the main courtyard who have been infected, including slaves, but luckily no one has died..."

As he said that, he rolled up his sleeves, and sure enough, his wrists, which should have been flawless, were covered with densely packed little red dots, which made people feel horrified.

Chang Manshou naturally didn't believe that Wei Yuhua's mother and son would not be infected with smallpox sooner or later, but they were infected when he came to pass on Yi's decree. He felt that this was Duan Wang and his wife singing the double reeds together. Why is Duan Wang partial? After knowing this, he simply gave up Wei Yuhua's mother and son, and letting them fend for themselves is obviously an excuse!
But let him personally verify whether the red dot on Chunxuan's wrist is smallpox or not, and he dare not take that risk. The people they serve are all infected with smallpox?His good life has only just begun, if he dies inexplicably like this, wouldn't it be worth a thousand, ten thousand worthless!
The little eunuch who came with him shouted in a low voice: "You two, go up and check whether the red dot on that girl's wrist is real or not, go quickly!"

The two young eunuchs saw the red dot on Chunxuan's wrist from a distance, and they were already frightened. How dare they get closer to test the authenticity? Could it be that Xu Changmanshou is afraid of death, and they are not allowed to be afraid of death?

At that moment, they all shook their heads like rattle drums, "The slaves dare not go, please forgive the chief... Besides, the slaves will go back to the palace with the master later to return to their orders. If they accidentally get infected, the master Could it be that the chief steward and the masters in the palace also..."

Chang Manshou was holding his breath, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only smile on his face and said to King Duan: "What a coincidence, both the concubine and princess have been infected with smallpox for several days, but it hasn't been revealed long ago. It didn't come out later, but when our family was ordered by the Queen Mother to pass on Yi's decree, His Highness Duan Wang said, is it really a coincidence?"

When King Duan heard this, his face immediately sank, and he said angrily: "What does Eunuch Chang mean by this? He is co-authoring that the prince's concubine and the eldest son and eldest daughter contracted smallpox to fool people. There is no such thing as this at all. What? Hmph, it's just going to the palace to attend to a sickness, and it's not like going up the mountain of swords and down the pan of oil. Is this king guilty of cursing his wife and children like this? Eunuch Chang, please be careful, otherwise don't blame me for being rude. Then I went to the palace to report to the emperor's grandmother, please give me an explanation!"

I have some confidence in my heart, I am afraid that Chang Manshou has long been in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han, otherwise, with the love of the emperor's grandmother for him, even if the emperor's grandmother is involuntary now, Chang Manshou definitely does not know, so what should he do in the past? He treats himself the way he treats himself now, but he is so arrogant that he says there is nothing wrong with him, even if he killed King Duan, he wouldn't believe it!

After King Duan finished speaking, he scolded Chunxuan again: "Have you heard that, if it wasn't for your master to make up his own mind, how could their mother and son's illnesses have been delayed until they were together, and how could this king have suffered from the idleness of a slave? Didn't there be any decree today? So, your master still intends to keep the king a secret until someone dies before he is willing to hide it?"
