I stepped forward respectfully: "Empress Dowager! Please take care of yourself. No matter what, whether it is yes or no, it still needs to be judged by the Zhang Yuan."

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. Aunt Zhuxi will be fine thanks to your blessing. Queen Mother, just rest assured and take care of yourself."

The Queen Mother sighed: "Huanbi, I can't go and see Bamboo Breath now. Why did you, a child, come in? But you have smallpox?"

My heart went back and forth a thousand times, and I knelt on the ground, "Please forgive me, Queen Mother, for my innocence."

The Queen Mother's eyes were surprised: "Huanbi, why is this?"

I knelt on the ground and replied in a deep voice: "When the Queen Mother asked, I dare not lie. Just now the Emperor asked me if I had smallpox when I was a child, and I said yes."

"When the Queen Mother asks questions, I dare not deceive you."

"Your Majesty, who has a body of thousands of gold, is worried about the Queen Mother's fourth brother, who is about to enter the Shoukang Palace."

"I can't stop you. I can only say that I had smallpox when I was young. My body is like grass. Thunder, rain, and dew are all your kindness."

"I didn't read much when I was a child. I only know that if the Emperor and Queen Mother are healthy, the Qing Dynasty will be safe."

My eyes were slightly red, and I looked at the Queen Mother with sincerity in my eyes.

There were tears in the Queen Mother's eyes: "Huanbi, get up. What's wrong with you? You are a good child."

"When I wanted you to go to the imperial court, the Ai family had a lot of thoughts. Now I see that the emperor is very precise in his recruitment."

I stood up from the ground, replaced the soft pillow behind the Queen Mother, then sat on the Queen Mother's couch and gently pressed her feet.

Her eyes flashed: "The Queen Mother, I don't think the Fourth Elder Brother looks like smallpox. The Queen Mother and the Emperor are connected to the fate of the Qing Dynasty. I am sure that the Fourth Elder Brother will be fine and in good health."

"It's just..." I hesitated and hesitated to speak.

The Queen Mother looked at ease and waited for me to continue.

"Huanbi, what do you mean?"

I was blessed: "That's what I said, please forgive me the Queen Mother."

"Now the Queen Mother in the palace has a headache, the Queen Mother is also lying on the couch, and the Fourth Brother is also not well. Should I ask the Qintian Supervisor to let the Emperor know if anything happens."

"This servant is afraid. If His Majesty's body of thousands of gold is also affected, I'm afraid..."

I didn’t go any further, just stop there. The Queen Mother will naturally figure it out.

The Queen Mother looked thoughtful when she heard what I said, and then I continued: "What you said Huanbi is exactly what the Ai family wants, and the Ai family thinks it makes sense."

"After the Zhang Yuan Judgment arrives, if it is not smallpox, let the Emperor come in and the Aijia can talk to the Emperor."

"If it's smallpox..." The Queen Mother looked at me and hesitated.

I understood the reason and hurriedly kowtowed on the ground: "If it is smallpox, I will take care of my fourth brother in Shoukang Palace. Now Aunt Zhuxi is also ill. With my servant here, the emperor will feel more at ease."

"Besides, Fourth Brother is only so old now, so I really don't feel at ease if I go out."

"While I was on duty at the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I was under the care of Concubine Yu. I think now is the time to repay the favor."

"You kid. Get up and talk back."

The Queen Mother called me up to the couch, held my hand, and said nothing for a long time.

"Empress Dowager, don't think too much or worry too much. The judge from Zhangyuan will be here in a while. I just need to accompany you to Fourth Brother's place."

After the queen mother was put to bed, Judge Zhang also arrived carrying a medicine box.

I stepped forward to meet Li, and at the same time led Zhang Yuanjian toward the side hall of Shoukang Palace.

The fourth elder brother was really not in a good condition at this time, and he was pacing in the hall with his nanny in his arms.

I stepped forward and took Hongyi out of the nanny's arms. I got too close and smelled a strange smell from the nanny.

It's nettle sap, and raw nettle sap can cause rashes on people.

Hongyi's chest rose and fell greatly, and there was a wheezing sound in his lungs.

It seems that the trachea was damaged due to cold.

When the hospital was making the diagnosis, I watched from the sidelines.

He nodded and shook his head. He stroked his gray beard and said, "I have been practicing medicine for many years, how come I have never seen such a strange disease?"

"It's smallpox, but it's not smallpox."

"But where did the rash come from?"

Magistrate Zhang Yuan looked thoughtful, his brows almost twisted into a rope.

The nanny stood nearby and answered Zhang Yuanjing: "I think this is smallpox. Fourth brother still has a high fever at night."

"I lost consciousness and was a little confused. I haven't been drinking much milk in the past few days."

I blinked my eyes and quietly retreated from the side hall.

Went to Aunt Zhuxi's room.

Aunt Zhuxi was looking pale on the bed. I stepped forward and shook hands with tears in my eyes: "Aunt Zhuxi, why are you like this? It's really unbearable to watch."

Aunt Zhuxi looked at me, a smile appeared on her face, and she lay back on the couch helplessly.

"Huanbi, why are you here? Everyone said it might be smallpox."

"I may not be able to survive this time. If I go, I will be worried about the Queen Mother, and there will be no one around me who understands the cold and the hot."

I shook my head and leaned close to Aunt Zhuxi’s ear: “Auntie Zhuxi is a lucky person, and this time will definitely pass.”

"Aunt Zhuxi, how many of them can be used? I have something to use."

When Aunt Zhuxi heard what I said, her eyes darkened: "Huanbi, you are very thoughtful, but what did you find?"

"Aunt Zhuxi, this servant is also guessing. But I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go."

Aunt Zhuxi handed me the pair of cards: "This is the pair of cards from Shoukang Palace. You can deal with it yourself if you want."

"Now that I have been lingering on the sickbed for a long time, if there is someone in Shoukang Palace who has high vision and low hand, I can go and beat him."

I took the pair of cards and comforted Aunt Zhuxi: "Auntie, don't think too much. Zhangyuan has sent Brother Si to see a doctor, so I will ask him to come and see you."

I held the pair of cards and called some maids to tie up the nanny.

The nanny looked surprised and struggled hard: "Huanbi, what are you doing? I am the fourth brother's nanny, what qualifications do you have to tie me up?"

"Haha" I sneered and stepped forward, "If I am wrongly arrested, I will go to the emperor and the queen mother to apologize. Now you must come with me."

The Zhang Yuan judge’s diagnosis and treatment department also came out, and the fourth elder brother did not suffer from smallpox. As for the cause of the disease, further investigation is needed.

I asked the magistrate of Zhang Yuan to visit Aunt Zhuxi and asked a little palace maid to lead the way.

Open the door of Shoukang Palace.

When the emperor saw the door of Shoukang Palace opened and saw me coming out, his eyes were anxious. :"how?"

I knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, Zhang Yuan has finished reading. Brother Si is not a smallpox, but this servant is a member of the imperial family and has something to report."

"In addition, the Queen Mother is worried about her illness and would like to ask the Emperor to move to Shoukang Palace."

The emperor was worried about the queen mother and listened to Zhang Yuan's verdict that nothing happened. Then he wanted to walk towards Shoukang Palace.

Concubine Qi stretched out her hand to stop me, and knelt on the ground with me. She said in a passionate voice: "Your Majesty, I think I can't go to Shoukang Palace at this time."

"Although the Zhang Yuan judge said it was not the case, the incubation time of smallpox is too long. What if it is the case?"

"The Emperor is connected with the country, and I ask the Emperor to consider the people of the Qing Dynasty."

Su Peisheng also stopped in front of the emperor, and I knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, someone is causing trouble this time. If someone in Shoukang Palace deceives the superiors, I'm afraid something will happen to the Queen Mother's fourth elder brother."

"This time Shoukang Palace has encountered such a catastrophe, please ask the emperor to move to put things in perspective."

Concubine Qi and Su Peisheng stopped in front of the emperor, and I also knelt on the ground.

The emperor did not move for a long time. Finally, Aunt Zhuxi looked gloomy, supported her sick body, and walked out from the gate of Shoukang Palace with the help of the little palace maid.

He was tremblingly preparing to salute. When the emperor saw this, he said: "Aunt Zhuxi, there is no need to be polite, but what does the emperor have to say to your aunt?"

Aunt Zhuxi glanced at Concubine Qi, then stood and replied: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has invited me. The Zhangyuan judge has repeatedly guaranteed that this disease is not smallpox."

"I'm afraid some people have evil intentions!"
