The Fourth Master's Dog

The news that the princes were infected with smallpox had been suppressed by Kangxi.

The palaces were blocked again.

It was not until the next day that some well-informed concubines learned the news.

Those who gave birth to princes were so frightened that they almost fainted.

In Yonghe Palace.

When Concubine De Uya heard the news, she was so frightened that she fainted.

The entire Yonghe Palace was in chaos. Depin's personal maid Cuizhu hurriedly wanted to run outside to ask for the imperial physician, but the palace gate had been blocked by people sent by the Emperor.

Without orders, there is no way out.

"Sir, my queen just fainted. Please go to the Imperial Hospital and ask a doctor to come and see my queen."

The imperial guards who blocked the Yonghe Palace also knew that Concubine De Uya was favored by Emperor Kangxi, so they did not make trouble and simply sent people to go.

"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir." Cuizhu showed a hint of joy on her face. At least now she could still ask the imperial physician for help.

Concubine De, Uya, had already lay down on the bed with the help of her servants. However, she was so angry that she woke up on her own after a while.

The first thing Depin Uya said when she opened her eyes was to hurriedly ask the people serving her.

"My Sixth Prince, how is the Sixth Prince?"

Aunt Wuya, who was standing by, looked terrified.

"News came from outside that except for the Fifth Prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the princes and princesses who are still in their infancy, all the other princes have contracted smallpox."

"Both the Fourth and Sixth Princes have been infected."

Concubine De Uya looked at Matron Uya with cold eyes, and her tone was not as gentle as before.

"Mammy, what are you doing? How come Sixth Prince is also infected?"

"Don't you know that the Sixth Prince is my lifeblood?"

"Without him, how can I live?"

"Hurry up and send someone to inform His Majesty that I am not feeling well and need to see His Majesty."

"If you can't even handle such a small matter, you should not stay in Yonghe Palace any longer."

Nanny Wuya knew that she was angered. It was she who brought up the smallpox issue. Now that the Sixth Prince was in trouble, how could she get anything good out of it?

If the Sixth Prince survived the smallpox, it would be fine. At most he would be scolded and suppressed for a while.

if……

Nanny Wu Ya didn't dare to think about what would happen next. By that time, no matter if something happened to the Fourth Prince or the Sixth Prince, even if Concubine De let her go, the family would not forgive her.

Nanny Wuya didn't even bother to wipe her sweaty face. She hurried to the palace gate and put on a smile.

"Sir, my queen is worried about the Sixth Prince and plans to go to the prince's residence to take care of him. Could you please pass on a message to His Majesty and ask for His Majesty's permission?"

While speaking with a smile on her face, Aunt Wuya took out a rather large purse and stuffed it into the hands of the guard at the door.

"Please help me, sir."

The guard calmly squeezed the purse in his hand; it was soft, and his expression softened.

"Okay, I'll send someone to pass the message."

The guards at the door all looked unhappy when they saw another person coming out. They just sent someone to ask for the imperial physician in a good mood, and then sent someone else out, thinking that they were easy to bully.

But considering that the old lady was so tactful and it wouldn't be a waste to make one more trip, the guards' expressions improved.

If you still make them work in vain, they will not be happy, no matter if you are a favorite concubine or something else.

The imperial edict they received was to seal the palace gates and not allow anyone to enter or leave.

---

Concubine De, Uya, was half leaning on the bed, her pretty face full of impatience.

"oops."

Concubine De, Uya, held her belly with both hands, feeling a little uneasy.

"Cuizhu, Cuizhu, please ask someone to check if the imperial physician has arrived. I have a stomachache."

Cuizhu, who was serving closely, immediately left the inner hall upon hearing the order and ran quickly towards the palace gate.

The guards who were sent to the Imperial Medical Bureau to invite the imperial physician failed to get the physician.

All the imperial doctors went to the prince's office to treat smallpox.

The guard hesitated for a moment and decided to go back directly. After all, he had come to invite him, but he just didn't accept.

At this critical moment, he would not show up in front of the Emperor, so as not to be affected by his anger.

I heard from the eunuchs serving in the imperial court that His Majesty has been in a bad mood since last night, so how could he dare to go?

Just on the way back, he met another guard who was going to deliver a message to the Emperor. He casually said that there was no imperial physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau, and if it was convenient, he could ask one to come over.

Kangxi sat in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, looking at the memorials on the table without changing a single word.

His mind was no longer on these memorials. Looking at the series of clues sent by the secret guards, Kangxi felt his veins throbbing.

There was no easy life in the former dynasty or the harem.

It seemed that no one in the palace was clean except his cousin. Even the gentle and considerate Concubine De, whom he had always loved, had hands that were not so clean.

He doesn't care about minor fights as long as they don't target his offspring.

He could pretend not to see anything else.

Who would have thought they would be so bold now?

He planned to kill all his descendants.

The angry voice was heard outside the door.

"Smallpox? Well, well, let me see how many claws you have."

"I'll chop them all off for you."

Liang Jiugong, who was waiting outside the door, couldn't help but shrink his neck when he heard the voice, and kept muttering in a low voice.

"What a sin! What a sin!"

"We are really walking in His Majesty's minefield."

"I have a few lives to give to His Majesty."

A young eunuch not far away ran over quickly and whispered something in Liang Jiugong's ear.

"This……"

How could he dare to go in and deliver the message at this time? Doesn't that mean he doesn't have enough life?

But he did not dare to be careless. Depin was already favored and had two biological princes, especially now that both princes were infected with smallpox.

Even if he had a hundred times the courage, he would not dare not pass on the message.

But he doesn't have the courage to go in and pass on the message now.

Liang Jiugong was sweating anxiously outside. What should he do?

Before Liang Jiugong could come up with a foolproof plan.

A burst of rage sounded.

"Liang Jiugong, come in here."

"What are you talking about sneakily outside the door?"

Liang Jiugong hurriedly pushed open the door of the hall and ran in quickly, not daring to delay.

"Your servant greets His Majesty. Just now, Concubine De from Yonghe Palace sent someone to tell him that she wants to go to the prince residence to take care of the Sixth Prince."

"Yonghe Palace still wants to invite an imperial physician over. Concubine De just fainted out of anxiety, and we don't know if she has woken up yet."

In a rage, Kangxi threw the teacup at Liang Jiugong.

"Is this even worth considering? Send someone to the prince's residence to ask a royal doctor to come over and take a look."

"The Sixth Prince's doctors and servants are in charge of taking care of him. Tell Depin to stay in the palace."

Kangxi felt a little reluctant when he thought about the fact that the Fourth Prince and his favorite Sixth Prince had both contracted smallpox, and his tone was not as cold and biting as before.

"Wait, bring my imperial physician with you, and I will go to Yonghe Palace to take a look as well."
