Lady Wan Guan

Chapter 210 The prince is unlucky

Xiao Yan visited the quarantine area where the epidemic was most severe, while Xiao Wang chose the safest quarantine area...Luming Academy.

No one in Luming Academy has fallen ill so far, and the quarantine will be lifted in one day.

It is better to win over the hearts of ordinary people than to win over the hearts of Daqi's best students. After all, the voices of these people are powerful and effective.

Just when Xiao Wang was communicating with the teachers and students of the academy from a distance.

In the back kitchen of the academy, a man delivering food fell to the ground as soon as he finished carrying a cart of vegetables.

Several cooks gathered around.

"Old Yan, Old Yan, wake up..."

But no matter how many people called him and shook him, Lao Yan was still unconscious.

A cook touched Lao Yan's forehead, as if it was burned, and he quickly withdrew his hand.

"He's having a fever."

Suddenly everyone ran out of the kitchen.

When infected with pox, in addition to a red rash on the body, there is also a high fever.

"He won't be infected, right?" Someone said in a trembling voice, with fear in his eyes.

Lao Yan came to deliver food three days ago. It turned out that Lao Ni, who was delivering food, accidentally sprained his foot, so he asked his neighbor Lao Yan to help deliver food. The headmaster of the academy asked Lao Yan again and again if he had ever been to a place where there was an epidemic. Lao Yan said there was no such place, so he agreed to let Lao Yan deliver the food.

As a result, Lao Yan collapsed today.

Someone immediately went to report the mountain chief.

The mountain chief was listening to His Royal Highness the Prince's caring speech at the front door, and heard the news from the visitor.

The hair on Shan Zhang's body stood up and he hurriedly went to the kitchen to check.

The doctor from the medical department stationed at the academy also arrived. He took off Lao Yan's face scarf and found a few red rashes on his face.

The doctor's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. He turned to the mountain leader standing at the door and said, "It's pox."

These three words were like a death sentence. Everyone persisted for so many days. Song Heng, who was most likely to be infected, had been isolated alone. Shangguan Zhaoyang and several Jiangcheng students who had the most contact with Song Heng were also isolated in the library of the academy. In the end, he failed to prevent it, and the food delivery person got infected, which meant that everyone in the academy was unsafe.

The mountain chief left in a hurry. Xiao Wang had seen it a long time ago, but he didn't think of the worst.

When he came, he asked the imperial doctor that once the pox was infected this time, the onset of the disease was very fast, which could take up to three days or as little as the same day. Luming Academy has been quarantined for nine days and no one has become ill. It is almost certain that the academy is safe.

As a result, not long after, before he finished speaking, the mountain chief came back.

"Your Highness, please leave quickly. There is a pox in the academy."

At this time, all the teachers and students were stunned.

Didn’t you say that victory is in sight? After being locked up for nine days, everyone was so exhausted that they thought they would be able to go home tomorrow. They were also planning to get some wine tonight to celebrate.

As a result, it is now said that the academy is suffering from acne.

The officials who accompanied Xiao Wang immediately surrounded Xiao Wang and left quickly without even leaving a word of comfort.

In the library, Shangguan Zhaoyang and others closed the door and did not listen to what was going on outside the window. They were quiet. Everyone had a peaceful mind and could see clearly. In Shangguan Zhaoyang's words, life and death were determined by fate.

Anyway, things are like this, so there is no point in being afraid.

Everyone was scattered in every corner, holding books and studying hard.

Suddenly there were noisy sounds outside. Some people were crying, some were cursing, and some were smashing things.

Chen Pingzhang, who was closest to the window, poked a hole in the window paper with his finger and looked out.

I saw a mess outside, as if someone was trying to escape from the academy, but was stopped and started fighting.

"Everyone, come here quickly, something seems to have happened." Shangguan Zhaoyang, Shen Fang and others hurried over to take a look.

"Let me go, I want to go home, no one can stop me." Pan Jiu's eyes were red and he looked like he was going crazy.

"Even if I am going to die, I don't want to die here..." Lin Shisan cried.

After everyone listened for a while, Shen Fang joked: "Can't we go out tomorrow? What are they making? Could it be that Song Heng is sick?"

Everyone looked at Shen Fang silently.

Shen Fang touched his nose: "I was joking."

Shangguan Zhaoyang said: "Perhaps you are right."

If it hadn't been for an accident, Pan Jiu and Lin Shisan would not have gone crazy.

When the academy was quarantined, the two of them just cursed a few times and accepted the reality.

"If Song Heng gets sick, wouldn't we be in danger too?" Qiao Yuan became worried.

I used to be free and easy because no one around me got sick, but now that there are real examples, my mentality is different.

After all, no one wants to die.

Soon a student who was close to Guan Zhaoyang came to report that the food delivery man, Lao Yan, had suffered from pox and passed out in the kitchen. The academy had now become an epidemic area, and the officers and soldiers had cordoned off the entire area.

Everyone was silent when they heard this. Everyone took every precaution to guard against Song Heng and several of them, but a food deliveryman took advantage of the loophole.

Something happened at Luming Academy, and the news quickly reached Gu Zhouting. Gu Zhouting didn't dare to hide it, so he went to tell Jiang Wanning immediately.

After Jiang Wanning finished listening, she was silent for a long time.

"Sir, I need a favor from you."

"You said."

"Let Dr. Yang and Lin Ruoruo go to the academy. They have experience and will strictly follow my treatment plan. I can't trust anyone else," Jiang Wanning said.

Originally, she only wanted to let Lin Ruoruo go, but Lin Ruoruo's status was too low to control the situation. If Yang Yuyi went there, he would definitely be able to speak. She must not let anything happen to Zhaoyang.

"But, you don't have enough manpower here." Gu Zhouting was worried.

Lin Ruoruo and Yang Yuyi are Jiang Wan Ning's right-hand men and can relieve her a lot of burden. If they leave, Wan Ning's burden will be even heavier.

"I'll figure it out on my own, the academy is more important."

Gu Zhou paused for a moment and nodded: "I'll do it right away."

He understood her feelings. Jiang Wanning had many relatives, but Shangguan Zhaoyang was Nan Zhi's only relative in the world.

If the pox epidemic in the capital made officials in both the DPRK and China feel panic, then the pox epidemic in Luming Academy would rip out the hearts of these officials.

When everyone struggled to send their best children to Luming Academy, who could have imagined that there would be such a disaster?

The anxious officials even turned their anger on the prince.

The prince is unlucky. Before the prince went to the academy, the academy was fine and the ban was about to be lifted. However, as soon as the prince left, someone fell ill.

However, everyone can only complain about these words in private and dare not speak openly.

But it is true that the prince fled in panic when he heard about the pox epidemic in the academy.

We can't say that the prince is unlucky, but it's okay to say that the prince is not the ordinary greedy for life and fear of death.

In comparison, His Royal Highness insisted on going to the epidemic area in the south of the city to express condolences to the residents there. Although His Highness was unable to enter in the end due to Gu Zhouding's firm obstruction, it truly demonstrated his love for the people.

Wang Peizhong mobilized public opinion and demoted the prince to be worthless in order to improve the image of His Highness as a people-friendly and benevolent person.

Xiao Wang originally wanted to put on a show, but it backfired and he was caught in the whirlpool of public opinion and was very upset.
