As a medical concubine

Chapter 228 The Whole Truth (1)
Nian Zhengyuan stepped aside in a hurry, smallpox is a disease that can be immune for life, but he has never had it, and it would be bad if he was infected.

After thinking about it, Nian Zhengyuan decided to come back another day.Before leaving, he asked the guard again: "When will the Celestial Master do it? Can she still set up the stalls on the street?"

The guard smiled mockingly: "Still setting up a stall? The affairs of the princess' mansion are enough for her to be busy for a while!"

"What's the matter at the princess mansion?" Nian Zhengyuan asked again.

The guard refused to say.

Nian Zhengyuan took out a piece of silver from his pocket and stuffed it into his arms, and took out a few more pieces of silver and stuffed them into the other three guards.Everyone looked at each other and smiled, with relieved expressions.

The guard said: "To tell you the truth, the servant, the princess and the son-in-law are cursed! I am asking the celestial master to do it!"

Nian Zhengyuan was surprised: "Huh? Even they are cursed?" Isn't it just General Ran?
The guard said again: "The son-in-law rescued General Ran's apprentice from the house of the evil spirit, and since then he has offended the evil spirit, and the evil spirit wants to take revenge on him! And the princess, the princess has seen the real body of the evil spirit, and the evil spirit will also Take revenge on him! The smallpox in our mansion only started after they came back."

"Then did they both get it?" Nian Zhengyuan asked out of the instinct of investigating the case.

The guard shook his head: "No."

Then it has nothing to do with them.It's all just a coincidence, because of Yingluo's incident, it was given a layer of superstition.Nian Zhengyuan frowned, and strode back to the office of the Ministry of Punishment.

On the seventh day of April, the eldest lady brought Huazhu out to buy jewelry. According to the agreement between Nian Zhengyuan and Liao Zicheng, tomorrow should be the day to come to propose marriage. The eldest lady was happy and decided to dress up Huazhu well.Although this girl is quite good at getting into trouble, it is also a kind of luck to break into the two backers of Admiral's Mansion and Ran's House.

The two were walking on the noisy street, and when they came across something delicious and interesting, the eldest lady would ask Huazhu if she wanted it.Under normal circumstances, Hua Zhu would nod, not for nothing.

The eldest lady treats Huazhu well only because Huazhu can bring more benefits to the family, unlike Nian Jiangzhu and Huazhu, whose blood is thicker than water, and they are intimate from the bottom of their hearts.It's right to think about it, which regular wife would like the concubine's daughter?Huazhu can't choose her own origin, and she can't go back to the past to change her mother's fate. She can only warn herself not to become another man's concubine, no matter how noble that man is.

"Avoid! Avoid!"

Ahead, a guard in a yellow vest galloped over on a tall horse, holding a small flag. Behind him was a group of long guards.

Huazhu recognized their clothes, the people from the East Palace.

Huazhu, Da Furen and the surrounding people retreated to the side of the road one after another.

When the horn sounded, everyone knelt down in a huff.

This is a guard of honor for the princess, and those who are not royal and military ministers must kneel down to greet her.

Huazhu lowered her head, glanced at the opposite side, and saw a sedan chair with Baohua cover carried by the guards of the [-]th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, slowly passing by.

In front, there are eighteen eunuchs and eighteen palace ladies.

Behind, there are 32 eunuchs and 32 court ladies.

There are 98 guards of the Eastern Palace on both sides.

There are so many people, only to protect one person in the sedan chair, the future mother of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

"Why are you not allowed to stay?"

"The son-in-law is sick, and it won't help if you stay by his side. The imperial doctors will take good care of him, don't worry."

"I want to go back to the princess mansion!"

"This is the meaning of the empress dowager, please don't be willful, princess."

Inside the sedan chair, there was a conversation between Princess Changle and the Crown Princess.The voice of the Crown Princess is gentle and low, like clear water flowing from a pot into the bottom of a cup, making people feel that she must be a gentle and gentle woman.

When the guard of honor had completely left the street, everyone stood up one after another.

Huazhu recalled the conversation between Princess Changle and the Crown Princess, and blinked suspiciously: "Mother, is the son-in-law sick?"

The eldest lady didn't know, but an old lady at the side answered her question: "Oh, what a crime! The son-in-law has smallpox, I'm afraid...I'm afraid he won't live long!"

Huazhu was startled secretly, she didn't expect that her son-in-law also got smallpox. Throughout the ages, countless people died of smallpox.

The aunt sighed: "The life of the princess is so hard, she loses her loved ones again and again."

again and again?Aren't Princess Changle's queen mother and brothers all doing well?Why come again and again?Huazhu blinked, and asked softly, "Mother, which relatives did the princess lose?"

"Nurse!" the aunt replied with a long voice, "It seems to be three years ago, she also died of smallpox. The princess was very sad at that time, and she asked a lot of eunuchs and maids to be buried with her. Fortunately, my daughter did not work in the princess mansion. what."

"Buried with you? There is such a thing?" Another woman's face changed drastically, "My niece works as a cook in the princess mansion. If the son-in-law dies, will she be buried with the son-in-law?"

The aunt gave her a sympathetic look: "It's hard to say, hurry up, find a way to get your niece out if you can! Don't wait for something to be buried with you, many people in the princess mansion are infected with smallpox, your niece may not escape Got it."

Smallpox is highly contagious, and as long as one person in a group gets it, the rest are at risk of infection.

Seeing Huazhu's solemn expression, the eldest lady thought that she was worried that smallpox would spread to her body, so she comforted her: "Don't worry, the princess mansion is a few streets away from the Nian mansion, and it won't reach us anyway. And you are only a few He already had smallpox when he was only one month old, even if you share a bowl of rice with the smallpox patient, nothing will happen again."

Thinking that I had never had smallpox, what would I do if I was infected?My heart is so hairy...

Losing the mood for shopping, the eldest lady took Huazhu's hand and walked back.

On the way, I ran into Ran Qianhua.

Ran Qianhua was still wearing a black fur robe, riding on majestic red wings, as lonely as an emperor.As soon as she appeared, it almost made passersby freeze uncontrollably.She took it for granted, without even blinking her eyelids, she stopped in front of Hua Zhu, and said coldly: "I have something to discuss with Miss Nian, let me take a step to talk."

Da Furen naturally didn't dare to say "no", anyway, it was not the first time, compared to the last time when she directly pulled Hua Zhu onto the horse, being able to explain something today is already a great honor to her.The eldest lady smiled and said: "It's good to listen to General Ran's words, and don't come back in a hurry."
