Chapter 363 Smallpox
How terrible is smallpox plague? The ancients were extremely afraid of smallpox when they heard about smallpox. This is because smallpox is a very serious infectious disease. When they come into contact with patients, talk with patients, or encounter patients' supplies, they will be infected and even spread viruses through the air.
Moreover, this disease is extremely contagious and has a very high mortality rate. Even if you survive, you will be disfigured.
Mazi is the name people call many people who survived by smallpox. For example, Zhang Mazi and Li Mazi, this virus will make a handsome face bumpy and extremely terrifying.
Therefore, when the imperial physician said that Douhua'er had smallpox, everyone's faces were filled with fear. Concubine Miao hurriedly took out a handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose. The others were so scared that they couldn't help but take a step back.
"How can there be such dirty diseases in the palace? Doctor Han, you can see clearly." Concubine Miao looked frightened, and she wanted to snatch the door and escape.
Doctor Han looked at Douhuaer's symptoms carefully and frowned: "Empress Miao, the official can guarantee that it is indeed smallpox."
"Hurry, seal this room up, no one can step into the gate of Zhongcui Palace. Also, no one from Zhongcui Palace is allowed to go out." Concubine Miao ordered the palace servants he brought.
Several palace maids and the eunuch nodded, and everyone left the room, and then they locked the door of Douhua. Then, Concubine Miao ordered someone to guard Zhongcui Palace, and then hurried away with the two palace maids.
The people in Zhongcui Palace were also extremely panicked. Smallpox was so scary. But what they didn't understand was that Douhua'er had been in the palace, so how could she get infected with the virus like smallpox?
Wangcai and Sanxi looked at each other, but neither of them spoke. Douhua'er was so sick that she was infected. How did she get infected? This is a severe infectious disease.
Concubine Miao went to Kunning Palace. She went to find Empress Zhou and told her about Zhongcui Palace.
"Empress, I have no choice but to discipline me, and my servant bullied Douhua'er. I have already punished me. When I heard that Douhua'er was sick, I took Doctor Han with me. As a result, I found that Douhua'er had dyed smallpox."
The palace was stained with smallpox, which was a fatal matter. Empress Cao was startled and then asked: "Who is Douhuaer?"
As a queen, although she can't say she has a lot of things like Emperor Chongzhen. However, things in the harem are complicated. Although a little palace maid is outstanding, she still doesn't have to let Queen Zhou remember her name.
Until, the maid next to Empress Zhou said, "Empress, it is the maid who asked her to go to Zhongcui Palace to serve His Royal Highness the Prince."
After saying this, Queen Zhou suddenly remembered it. She remembered that this palace maid was very outstanding. When she heard this, she couldn't help but frowned: "How could she have smallpox?"
At this moment, Concubine Miao said the whole story with great consequences. Of course, the matter of smashing the flower pot was naturally blamed on Douhua. She only said that Douhuaer misunderstood Hongju, and she had already punished Hongju for the sake of the prince's face.
Because I was worried, I took the imperial physician to Zhongcui Palace. Unexpectedly, when I saw that the Douhuaer turned out to be smallpox.
Concubine Miao knelt down and said, "Empress, this evil disease is reported in the palace. Please make a decision as soon as possible to avoid infection."
Queen Zhou said "um" and she was still hesitating about how to deal with Douhuaer.
Concubine Miao saw her entanglement and said immediately: "Empress, this matter is still caused by me. Let me leave it to me. I will send someone to drag the palace maid out of the palace to bury it so as not to cause contagion in the capital."
Bury this palace maid will definitely not be able to survive if she gets smallpox. She just buried her alive... But if it doesn't happen, if it spreads, the entire capital and even the imperial palace will suffer.
According to Queen Zhou's character, she would not be so cruel. But since Concubine Miao wanted to be the evil man for herself, Queen Zhou would not say anything anymore. She just nodded: "Okay, you can deal with this matter. Zhong Cuigong must completely disinfect it. The prince cannot live there. When he comes back, he will place him elsewhere."
"I obey the order."
No one saw the cruel smile on the corner of Concubine Miao's mouth. This palace maid dared to offend her, and this was her fate. Let's see who would dare to provoke her in the future in the harem.
People in Zhongcui Palace were trembling and didn’t understand why Douhuaer got this disease.
Sanxi found Wangcai: "Wangcai, I always feel that things don't seem right. You said, Douhua'er hasn't left the palace, how could she get smallpox?"
Wangcai pondered for a moment: "It must be the people from Jingren Palace who were killed. They wanted to kill Douhua to gain authority in the palace."
Three happy and one surprised: "What do you mean..."
Wangcai didn't say anything, but went to pull open the lock on the door of the Douhua room. He found a brick and smashed it down at the copper lock.
Sanxi was shocked: "You are crazy, this is the order given by Concubine Miao."
Concubine Miao is the master. She ordered Douhuaer's door to prevent infection in the palace. Wangcai dared to disobey his master's intention and smashed the door lock. If this is really pursued, it would be a serious crime.
Wangcai ignored this, and he broke open the door lock and broke in. Sanxi was a little scared, but he still followed him in with a tough bullet.
In the room, Wangcai came to the bedside without fear of being infected. He looked at the symptoms on Douhua. It was indeed similar to smallpox, with red dots on his body.
"Douhuaer, how are you?" Wangcai asked anxiously.
Sanxi didn't dare to go forward, so she only dared to stand at the door and watched. Douhuaer shook her head and said anxiously: "You guys go out quickly, it will be transmitted to you, let's go."
Wangcai was not afraid at all. He reached out and touched Douhua's forehead: "No, why don't you have a fever? It seems that smallpox will have a fever."
Wangcai was actually extremely risky to do this. This guy who was not afraid of death dared to reach out and touch Douhua's forehead. Even Douhua was so scared that he pushed him away: "You don't want to die, go out quickly."
At this moment, Concubine Miao brought people again. The difference was that in addition to a group of eunuchs in the palace, she also brought a team of guards.
Everyone was as if they were facing a great enemy. They were fully armed and covered their mouths and noses. Fortunately, Concubine Miao saw that the door that was smashed open was not in charge of Zhongcui Palace.
However, at this time, Concubine Miao showed her evil appearance and shouted outside: "Come here, drag this bastard out. According to the imperial edict of the Empress, this woman was infected with a bad disease. In order to prevent her from infecting the palace, she dragged her to the outside of the palace to deal with it on the spot!"
Sanxi in the room was shocked: "Wangcai, what does it mean to deal with it on the spot?"
Wangcai whispered: "It's just burying alive."
