Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Princess of Western Jin Dynasty and the young princess were placed under house arrest in their respective courtyards and could not step out of the door. Naturally, they could not bring Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao to the young prince.

After Wei Ting came out of the courtyard of the Princess of Western Jin, he went to the young Princess of Western Jin’s courtyard to pick Su Xiaoxiao up.

The two of them met behind a rockery.

“How is it?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Wei Ting took out a blueprint drawn by the Princess of Western Jin and pointed at a small dot on it. “This is our current location, this side of the young prince’s courtyard. ”

He pointed at another small dot.

“So far?” Su Xiaoxiao was a little shocked. The two dots almost crossed a mansion.

Wei Ting said, “The young royal prince has to recuperate, so they chose a relatively quiet courtyard. His courtyard is heavily guarded.”

Su Xiaoxiao frowned slightly. “Wait, why does a patient’s courtyard have to be guarded by heavy troops? It’s understandable that there are heavy troops outside the residence. Why is even the young prince’s courtyard strictly guarded in order to prevent the Princess of Western Jin from escaping ? He’s already so sick. He can’t walk out even if he opens the door.”

Wei Ting narrowed his eyes. “This is also what I’m puzzled about. There aren’t that many troops outside the courtyards of the Princess and the young princess of the Western Jin.”

Su Xiaoxiao was deep in thought. “I have an ominous feeling.”

Wei Ting nodded. “I’m afraid things aren’t simple… Someone is here!”

He pulled Su Xiaoxiao behind him and blocked her with his broad body.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the man who stood in front of her without hesitation and her heart skipped a beat.

Regardless of how unforgiving this guy’s words were, once they encountered danger, he would really attack.

She touched her heart.

This was clearly not the first time. Why was her heart beating a little faster? She thought inappropriately of the kiss at the inn. His lips were cold and soft…

“Delicious.”

“What?” Wei Ting asked her.

Su Xiaoxiao closed her mouth and shook her head. It was nothing.

“It’s me!”

Moxie whispered.

The person who came was Moxie. Moxie thought that Wei Ting was calling him.

Hearing MO Xie’s voice, the two of them walked out from behind the rockery.

Su Xiaoxiao learned from the little princess that Moxie and the other experts in the residence were all locked up, but Su Xiaoxiao was not surprised to see him appear.

The situation was urgent, so the three of them skipped the small talk.

Moxie handed a set of clothes to Su Xiaoxiao. “The young prince’s courtyard is strictly guarded. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, it’s best not to barge in. Two of the imperial physicians who came this time are His Highness’s men. One of them is already hiding in my courtyard. These are his clothes and token. Please dress up as him to treat the young prince. Imperial Physician Zheng will cooperate with you.”

The Princess of Western Jin Dynasty was very thoughtful.

Although they could also sneak in quietly, it was still difficult to approach the young royal prince with so many imperial physicians guarding the bed.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Bring me to see that imperial physician. I’ll disguise myself like him.”

Half an hour later, Su Xiaoxiao, who was dressed as an imperial physician, carried a food box to the young prince’s courtyard.

Not only did the heavy-armored soldiers surround the front and back doors, but they also did not let go of the surrounding courtyard walls. Even a fly was not allowed to enter freely.

The heavily-armored soldier at the door checked Su Xiaoxiao’s token and food box. Seeing that there was only a bowl of medicine in the food box, he let Su Xiaoxiao in.

Su Xiaoxiao’s disguise technique was alright, but her voice was not. She tried not to speak if she could.

She followed Moxie’s description and found the young duke’s house.

The door was ajar. The young royal prince’s bed was blocked by a mountain and river screen. She could not see the young royal prince’s condition. There were two imperial physicians in the room. One was pounding medicine, and the other was writing a medical case. The rest of the imperial physicians were in another room at the end of the corridor, discussing how to treat the young royal prince’s condition.

Su Xiaoxiao entered the young prince’s room.

“Imperial Physician Liang, you are here.”

An imperial physician in his fifties put down the half-written medical table and walked towards her.

Su Xiaoxiao handed him the food box and tapped it with her fingertip.

He nodded back twice.

The code matched.

It was Imperial Physician Zheng.

Imperial Physician Zheng coughed lightly and turned around to say to another imperial physician, “Imperial Physician Zhang, you’ve been busy for the entire night. Go rest for a while. It’s fine with Imperial Physician Liang and me here.”

Imperial Physician Zhang thought for a moment and said, “Alright, I’ll go see what they say. Help me smash the herbs.”

“Aye!” Imperial Physician Zheng agreed.

After sending Imperial Physician Zhang off, Imperial Physician Zheng quickly looked around the door. After confirming that no one was watching, he quickly pulled Su Xiaoxiao’s wrist to the side of the screen and pointed at the patient on the bed.

“This is the young prince.”

“I know,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

Imperial Physician Zheng was shocked and hurriedly let go. “You, you, you… you’re a girl?”

Her Highness actually sent a girl over?

He looked at Su Xiaoxiao’s wrist and then at his hand. “I’m… sorry! I was rude!” “It’s fine.” After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she took out a mask and put it on.

This was the first time Imperial Physician Zheng had seen such a strange cloth covering someone’s face. He opened his mouth and was stunned.

Su Xiaoxiao came to the bed and set up the divider.

The young royal prince was less than two years older than the young princess. He was 13 years old this year. Because he was sick all year round, he looked about the same age as the young royal prince. His facial features were very exquisite, but unfortunately, he was too thin.

Su Xiaoxiao put on her gloves and took his pulse.

In addition, patches of various sizes were found on his cheeks and arms.

“It’s smallpox.”

“It’s smallpox.”

Imperial Physician Zheng did not say anything just now because he wanted to see how good her medical skills were. He did not expect her to say that he had smallpox in a few moves. The physican that Her Highness found was indeed capable.

Unfortunately, smallpox was a terminal illness. It was useless to diagnose it. It could not be treated.

Smallpox was indeed a tricky illness. It was extremely infectious and had an extremely high mortality rate. Most importantly, it did not have targeted medicine.

In her previous life, the reason why the smallpox virus could be eliminated was not because of treatment, but because of prevention.

Su Xiaoxiao understood why the young royal prince’s courtyard was guarded by soldiers. This was to prevent smallpox from spreading.

Smallpox did not have any symptoms during the incubation period. After that, the patient began to experience high fever, cold war, headache, back pain, and many other pains in the body. This was the invasion period. After that, the body would have plaque rash, which meant that he had entered the state.

“How long has this plaque been around?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Imperial Physician Zheng said, “According to the imperial physician on duty, he discovered it yesterday.”

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “So today is the second day.”

On the third day, the plaque quickly festers into a blister, and on the seventh day, it develops into a pustule.

These few days were the most dangerous. One could survive if they survived those few days, but most patients could not.

“Let’s lower your temperature first and try anti-viral treatment.”

Su Xiaoxiao said to Imperial Physician Zheng, “Imperial Physician Zheng, please guard outside and don’t let anyone in. I’m going to give him medicine.”

“Is… is it using tiger and wolf medicine?”

Imperial Physician Zheng felt that this must be the case. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have sent him away.. “Don’t be rash… If anything happens, I’ll have to take the blame with you!”
