"Imperial Physician Xu, have I survived the smallpox?" On the twelfth day, the Fourth Prince leaned on the soft pillow, drank the medicine served by Xu Qingyi, and asked with a smile on his pale face.

"Once the pustules and scabs on your body have completely fallen off, you will have survived the smallpox.

At present, we can only say that he is in good condition, but he cannot see outsiders or be exposed to the wind. The smallpox on his body is still contagious." Xu Qingyi took the medicine bowl from the Fourth Prince and carefully put it back on the tray. As she answered, she paid attention to the Fourth Prince's expression.

The fourth prince nodded slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of relief, relief that he had survived the smallpox, but more of an anticipation for the upcoming recovery. "Imperial Physician Xu, you have worked hard these days. I will definitely ask my father and mother to reward you handsomely."

"Imperial Physician Xu, when do you think I will be able to recover?" the Fourth Prince asked again. He was eager to know when he would be able to recover.

Xu Qingyi pondered for a moment, she looked at the Fourth Prince, and said seriously: "Your Highness, smallpox is a serious disease, it takes time to recover slowly. Now your Highness has survived the most difficult stage, but it will take some time to recuperate. I will continue to treat your Highness, and I will also pay attention to your diet and daily life, and strive for your early recovery.

At the shortest, it will take half a month, at the longest, it will take a month."

The fourth prince nodded, looked at Xu Qingyi deeply, and then closed his eyes. He knew that he was able to survive the smallpox, in addition to his own willpower and the careful treatment of the imperial physician, as well as the meticulous care and concern of Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan and others.

"How is the situation of Imperial Physician Hua and other palace servants infected with smallpox?" the Fourth Prince asked again. He was also very concerned about the other palace servants infected with smallpox.

"Your Highness, Imperial Physician Hua and the other infected palace maids are gradually recovering after our careful treatment. Their illness is milder than yours, so they will recover faster. However, they also need some time to recuperate to avoid a recurrence of the illness." Xu Qingyi replied.

After hearing this, the Fourth Prince felt a little relieved.

The fourth prince chatted with Xu Qingyi for a while, then let her leave. He closed his eyes and began to recall the days when he was infected with smallpox. During this time, he felt the fear and helplessness between life and death, and also felt the care and concern of the people around him. He was deeply grateful to Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan and others. It was their meticulous care and concern that helped him get through this difficult time.

After another half a month, the pustules on the Fourth Prince's body had completely fallen off, and his skin had gradually returned to its normal color. There were only some pockmarks on his face, but it did not affect the Fourth Prince's appearance.

The fourth prince stood in front of the window and gently pushed it open. A gust of fresh air blew in, making him feel refreshed. He took a deep breath and looked at the scenery outside the window, his heart full of expectations for the future.

Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan and others walked into the room and smiled happily when they saw that the Fourth Prince had recovered. Xu Qingyi stepped forward and said respectfully, "Congratulations, Your Highness, on your recovery. Your body has almost recovered."

The fourth prince turned around and saw Xu Qingyi and the others. He smiled and said, "Thanks to your careful treatment and care, I was able to recover so quickly. I will report this to my father and mother and ask them to reward you handsomely."

Xu Qingyi and the others quickly bowed to express their gratitude. Then, the Fourth Prince asked, "Have Imperial Physician Hua and the other palace servants who were infected recovered?"

Xu Qingyi replied, "Yes, Your Highness. Imperial Physician Hua and the other palace servants who were infected have also recovered. Their illnesses were less severe than yours, so they recovered faster."

"The Imperial Hospital will send an imperial physician to Moxuan Palace for examination today. Once all the problems are confirmed, Moxuan Palace can be unsealed today." As early as half a month ago, Xu Qingyi had passed on the message that the Fourth Prince had recovered from smallpox, and other people in Moxuan Palace who were infected with smallpox had also recovered. The Emperor had returned to the palace from Tianlong Temple ten days ago.

To be on the safe side, Xu Qingyi still used the excuse that the smallpox had not yet healed to close the Moxuan Hall and prevent anyone from entering or leaving.

Two days ago, the Fourth Prince recovered completely and could no longer stay in Moxuan Palace. The imperial doctors Xu Qingyi, Bai Yan and others who stayed in Moxuan Palace also thoroughly checked everyone in Moxuan Palace and the palace servants. After confirming that there was no problem, they sent a message to lift the ban on Moxuan Palace and summoned the imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital to come in for an examination.

At this moment, the imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital had already arrived outside the Moxuan Palace, holding medicine boxes and looking serious. The leading imperial doctors were Cui Shan and Wu Chen.

Both of them are experienced and have superb medical skills. They came here to confirm the situation in Mo Xuan Palace.

Xu Qingyi had been waiting outside the Moxuan Palace for a long time. When she saw the imperial doctors coming, she immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Master Cui, Master Wu, you have worked hard."

“We are not suffering, but you are suffering.

I haven't seen them for a month, and they have all become thinner." Wu Chen glanced at Xu Qingyi and the other imperial doctors. Each of them looked tired and haggard, and it was obvious that this period of time had not been easy.

"Thank you Lord Wu for your concern. This is our duty." Xu Qingyi smiled slightly. Although she was tired, there was a determination in her eyes.

"So, what's the situation in Moxuan Palace?" Lord Cui asked. His voice was steady and powerful, revealing a kind of majesty.

Xu Qingyi replied respectfully: "My Lord, all those infected with smallpox in Moxuan Hall have recovered. Today, we made an exception and fumigated Moxuan Hall once. Now we just need the two Lords to check it once, and then Moxuan Hall can be released."

Cui Shanhe and Wu Chen nodded slightly, then entered Moxuan Hall for inspection.

After entering the Moxuan Hall, they began to carefully check every corner, leaving no corner untouched. They checked the patient's medical records, asked about the patient's recovery, and even took the patient's pulse in person.

In addition, the pulses of other palace maids who were not infected with the disease were also checked one by one.

After two hours of careful inspection, Cui Shan and Wu Chen finally came to a conclusion. Cui Shan walked out of Mo Xuan Hall and announced: "After our inspection, there is no smallpox epidemic in Mo Xuan Hall. All patients have recovered, and Mo Xuan Hall can be unsealed."

The Fourth Prince was overjoyed when he heard this. He immediately ordered people to spread the news, letting everyone know that the Moxuan Palace had been unsealed.

As the news spread, the entire palace was in an uproar.

Moreover, as a group of palace maids walked in from outside Mo Xuan Palace, they were mixing grapefruit water and sweeping everywhere to ward off evil spirits and avoid epidemics. This was all arranged by the Queen.
