Ice Beauty Emperor Master Manual

Recently, people in the capital are panicking, and a dark cloud called the epidemic is pressing down on the hearts of the people. It is so heavy that people avoid it like snakes and scorpions.

People don't go out unless they have to go out, and they are careful not to touch strangers on the road, especially those beggars who look ragged, and walk away as soon as they see them.It is said that this epidemic was spread among the low-level people, who knows if they are sick?

However, I heard that the emperor has ordered people to arrange the sick people to live in one place to temporarily control the source of the disease. People from the imperial hospital have also gone out of the palace to treat the common people. I think the epidemic will not last long.

People are eagerly looking forward to the early end of this epidemic.

But as the condition of the sick person was revealed, they became even more afraid!

At the beginning, the patients only had common symptoms such as headache, high fever, chills or chills, but in the later stage, they developed sores on their faces, which looked like fire sores, and gradually appeared strips of red spots on their bodies. The pain was unbearable.

After people know these symptoms, they no longer ask what the epidemic is, because the answer is ready to come out.What else could it be but the dreadful smallpox?

Now, the people of every family can't go out behind closed doors, and the smell of wormwood in the capital lingers for a long time.

Some dignitaries panicked and invited eminent monks from Ganye Temple to perform rituals, for fear of being contaminated with any unclean things.

The snow that has been falling for many days has stopped, and the temperature has warmed up a bit.

How could the news of Yu Shen's illness be hidden from Chu Tang.

When Chu Tang returned to the National Teacher's Mansion from the palace, everyone in the mansion was busy packing up Yu Shen's used clothes, tea sets, toys and burning them.

Outside Yu Shen's room, there was a strong smell of mugwort leaves.

The servants wore veils on their faces, and the steward was staring at them burning moxa. When he saw Chu Tang unexpectedly, he hurriedly went up to him and said, "Master, you are back."

"How is Yu Shen?" Chu Tang asked.

The housekeeper said: "Young master originally had sores on his neck, hands and feet. Yesterday, the sores began to suppurate. The young master was still vomiting and having convulsions. The high fever continued. The doctor said it was undoubtedly smallpox."

"Is there a solution?" Chu Tang frowned.

The housekeeper sighed: "Not yet, the epidemic is difficult, and smallpox is even more difficult, let alone...a child."

Chu Tang was silent.

In ancient times, children with weak resistance were infected with smallpox, almost a dead end, and could only resign themselves to fate.

He took off his cloak and walked into the room.

The butler was anxious and was about to stop him. The Qianling Guard who was following behind the national teacher was faster than him, and stopped Chu Tang with a stride. He knelt down and said, "Please think again, the national teacher!"

Before Chu Tang left the palace, Yu Ke ordered Qianling Wei to follow Chu Tang, in case he really didn't care about his body and went to take care of Yu Shen himself.

"I have a sense of proportion." Chu Tang said.

He passed Qianling Guard and walked in directly.

Qianlingwei gritted his teeth, stood up, and followed Chu Tang step by step.

The window was open in the room, and the cold air was blowing in, but the ground dragon was not opened, and it was very cold for a while.

The housekeeper said: "The doctor said that ventilation is needed, and you can't be stuffy, so the old servant boldly turned off the heater."

This is as it should be, Yu Shen has sores on his limbs and face, his whole body is burning, his face is red, and the sores are even redder.

When Chu Tang saw him, he was lying on the bed, drowsy, babbling indistinctly, and his little face was flushed.

"He was in the mansion, how could he get smallpox?" Chu Tang asked.

The butler blamed himself: "Young master occasionally goes to play with his former friends, but the old slave can't stop him, so I ask the teacher to forgive me."

Yu Shen's friends in the capital are those little beggars and gangsters who begged together before he met Chu Tang.

Chu Tang was silent for a while, and said, "Is there anyone else in the house infected?"

"Xiaoqing has been taking care of the young master, unfortunately she also got infected..." the housekeeper said with a sad face, "I have been seen by the doctor, it is not as serious as the young master."

Yu Shen stared in a daze, suddenly called out "Brother Chu", opened his eyes and woke up.

Seeing that Chu Tang really appeared by the window, he suddenly opened his eyes wide and said in surprise, "Brother Chu!"

He kicked off the quilt and wanted to hug Chu Tang, but the maid who was standing by waited on him quickly, with gloves on, and said, "Young master, absolutely not."

Yu Shen shrank back under the quilt aggrievedly, the red marks on his face were particularly obvious on his white and tender face: "I'm in so much pain, Brother Chu, help me."

"Did you drink the medicine?" Chu Tang asked.

The maid replied: "Young master fell asleep just now, and the medicine is still warming. This servant will bring it now."

Yu Shen asked: "Will I get better? Brother, it's so itchy."

As he spoke, he pulled his hand out of the bed and scratched his face.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Chu Tang grabbed his wrist amidst the exclamation of everyone, and stuffed it into the bed: "Don't grab it."

Qianling Guard immediately took a clean handkerchief from the maid, soaked it in hot water, knelt down and held Chu Tang's hand, wiped it repeatedly, and said in a low voice, "Master, I offended you."

Yu Shen also knew that he had done something wrong, even if he wanted to get close to Chu Tang, he had no choice but to shrink back under the blanket, saying, "Brother, hurry up, don't be infected by me..."

He was so frightened that he began to cry.

The maid put the handkerchief under his eyes and said softly, "Young master, don't cry, the sores will hurt even more if the tears soak them."

Chu Tang watched, took his hand away from Qianling Guard, thanked him, and said to the housekeeper, "Make a pair of cotton gloves for Yu Shen."

"Yes, the old slave understands."

Before leaving, Chu Tang said to Yu Shen: "It will get better."

Yu Shen choked and said, "Brother Chu."

Seeing that Chu Tang was about to leave, the housekeeper said: "The national teacher is busy with state affairs, so he must take care of his body. There is someone in the mansion to take care of the young master, so the national teacher can rest assured."

"Yes. Thank you for your hard work." Chu Tang said lightly.

The carriage was still waiting at the door, Qianling Wei asked: "Master, are you going back to the palace?"

"Ah."

He returned to the palace because he thought of Yu Ke's abnormality today.

The news that Yu Shen was suffering from smallpox arrived yesterday, but Yu Ke kept it from him.When Chu Tang heard that his subordinates came to report this morning, he was not very angry. After all, it doesn't make any difference whether he goes back to see Yu Shen sooner or later.

The strange thing is that Yu Ke didn't show up in front of him all day today.

He remembered the scene where Yu Ke blocked Yu Shen from hugging him before, and sighed silently.

I hope Yu Ke is fine.

In the Zichen Palace, Li Yuansheng was leading the people to pick out the things in the palace one by one. Seeing Chu Tang coming back, he said respectfully: "National Teacher Wan An."

"What is this for?"

Li Yuansheng glanced at the people who were busy packing up, and said in a low voice: "If you return to the national teacher, your majesty will ask the servants to burn the things he used, so as not to infect the national teacher."

Chu Tang frowned, lowered his voice and said, "Is Your Majesty also sick?"

Li Yuansheng sighed and said: "The imperial doctor said that the ** is not far from ten."

"What's the current situation?"

Li Yuansheng bowed his head and said, "I don't know."

How could he not know, just now he was ordered by Yu Ke to come over to do something, how could he not know about Yu Ke's condition?

Chu Tang also guessed that it was Yu Ke who gave the order, and said, "It's okay, just say it. Your Majesty will not blame you."

Li Yuansheng said: "Your Majesty had symptoms of depression and irritability last night. The imperial doctor said it was a sign of smallpox attack. But this morning, His Majesty started to develop rashes on his hands, and there seemed to be red marks on his face..."

After Chu Tang heard this, he turned around and walked out the door. Li Yuansheng immediately stood in front of him and said, "No national teacher! Your Majesty said that he is sick, so you must not let the national teacher approach. In case you also..."

"I'll go and have a look," Chu Tang interrupted him, his eyes under the silver mask were cold but gentle, "It's okay. You should take care of His Majesty's illness, and don't let anyone who cares listen to it."

"Yes, yes, the slave naturally understands."

The emperor's bedroom.

At this time in the past, Yu Ke had finished his court and went to the imperial study, but now he is still staying in the palace, which makes people think about it.

Yue Rong waited at the door, her eyes were red, and the surrounding palace servants also put on veils.

Chu Tang took a look and understood.Seeing him, Yue Rong hurried forward and said, "National Master Wan An, Your Majesty is not feeling well, and ordered to see no one."

Chu Tang's expression remained unchanged, and he asked, "Did he say he didn't see me?"

Yue Rong paused, then silently beckoned someone to come over with a veil and gloves, and waited for Chu Tang to put them on, before saying, "Master, pay attention to your body."

Chu Tang glanced at the gloves, but still put them on: "Go to the two prime ministers and go to the imperial study, in the name of His Majesty."

Yue Rong said: "Your Majesty has already summoned the two prime ministers this morning, does the national teacher still need someone to send a message?"

"Then you don't have to."

Yue Rong opened the door to the outer room, and as soon as Chu Tang stepped in, he found that everything inside had been replaced with new ones.

The system said: "Host! Do you really want to go in? You don't seem to have been vaccinated against smallpox?"

"Well, I haven't fought." Chu Tang said lightly.

The system hurriedly said: "Then don't go in! What if you really get infected?"

The inner door was tightly closed, Chu Tang raised his hand and pushed it, but it didn't open.

"I'll be careful, I won't get it." Chu Tang took off his mask and put on the veil, revealing cold and beautiful eyes, as if he would never lose his composure in any situation.

The system said: "No! Nothing is as important as your body, the host, don't look at him, let him fend for himself."

Chu Tang paused, and said thoughtfully: "Does your system always regard the host as more important than the task?"

Isn't the system under the orders of his boss or Yu Ke?He guessed wrong?

The system said bluntly: "It's just for you. Host, you can't go in."

He was rarely so decisive.Chu Tang said: "Is there any medicine to cure this epidemic in the mall?"

"Originally there are," the system said, "but because Yu Ke himself is aware of our existence, the supplies in the mall can no longer be used by outsiders, and currently all functions are only open to you as the host."

Chu Tang said: "It turns out that your welfare is so good."

He knocked on the door, looking completely unmoved, the system panicked, and could only compromise: "Host, I'll exchange it for an immune medicine for you, so that you won't be infected with smallpox."

"Thank you." Chu Tang said.

While the system was operating, it muttered: "The mission of the emperor is important, but your safety and joy are more important."

After Chu Tang took the medicine, he knocked on the door again.

There was no movement inside.Chu Tang said, "Yu Ke."

"啪啦" suddenly sounded, it was the sound of porcelain breaking.

Yu Ke seemed to be drinking medicine, and when he heard it was Chu Tang, he was astonished and said hoarsely, "Chu Tang!"

Chu Tang said, "It's me. You open the door."

"No," Yu Ke said, "I'm sick, so don't come in."

Chu Tang said calmly, "Then I'm leaving."

There was a "plop" sound from the bedroom, as if something had fallen onto the carpet.

Yu Ke's originally distant voice soon approached, as if he had arrived at the door, and said anxiously: "Brother, don't go... just let me hear your voice."

Chu Tang didn't turn around at all, was silent for a moment, and said, "Don't cry."

Li Yuansheng said that Yu Ke also had a rash on his face, which was already painful, but it hurt even more when he cried.

Yu Ke's difficult words came: "I didn't cry...My brother just told me yesterday, I will remember what didn't let me cry."

"Is it because you met Yu Shen that day?" Chu Tang asked.

Yu Ke said: "It should be... Brother, are you okay? Yuerong said you are fine, but I am still very worried about you..."

"I'm fine." Chu Tang said softly.

Yu Ke murmured: "Fortunately you didn't meet him that day, fortunately..."

If Chu Tang had caught Yu Shen that day, the consequences would have been disastrous.

The incubation period of smallpox can be long or short. On Yu Shen's body, it took several days for the outbreak to develop after the red spots appeared.And Yu Ke has a strong body and strong resistance, so it should not be easy to get infected, but on the day he met Yu Shen, he just recovered from a high fever and had a serious chest injury, so he was hit by the trick all of a sudden.

Yu Ke coughed a few times, and laughed at himself: "Who told me not to listen to my brother and take care of my body, this is really my retribution."

Chu Tang said, "It will get better."

Yu Ke said: "Originally this month should be by my brother's side all the time, but I... can't put you in danger. I'm so unwilling, I only have the last few days of opportunities, but now I don't have them."

His voice choked up slightly, sounding pitiful and aggrieved, he was indeed very unwilling.

Chu Tang remained silent.

Yu Ke whispered: "I don't know if it will get better. Why don't you go home first, I... I can hold on."

Chu Tang's voice was as cold as ever: "Really?"

"Really. It's just... is brother wearing gloves?" Yu Ke seemed to sniff his nose, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "Just before leaving, can I hold you by the hand?"

The door opened a crack, and Yu Ke slowly stretched out his hand.He wore soft cotton gloves, which were clean and white, as if he was holding a heart out, afraid that Chu Tang would really touch him, so he shrunk his wrist slightly, only showing the gloved part.

Chu Tang lowered his eyes slightly, looking at Yu Ke's hand stretched out.The wide palm was pitifully covered in gloves, looking bloated and aggrieved.

He thought, how could there be such a person as Yu Ke in the world?

She clearly wanted to get close to him, but she was always cautious, for fear of making him feel a little bit uncomfortable.

He obviously didn't want him to get sick, and showed an indestructible appearance, but in fact he was extremely fragile, relying on him like grabbing a life-saving straw, as if he could draw strength just by looking at him more.

——This kind of inadvertent careful thought is actually more moving than those deliberate calculations.

Chu Tang's eyes moved, as if the ice and snow had melted for years, the qiongzhiyu leaves bloomed, and the mountain streams flowed, all bright and bright.

Amidst the slight sound of friction, Chu Tang took off the silk glove on his hand, held Yu Ke's hand in the thick cotton glove with his slender and clean hand, squeezed it lightly, and said: "good."

Yu Ke didn't notice that he took off his gloves, so he was so happy and comforted that he wrapped his back around Chu Tang's hand, just like how Chu Tang held him when he was a child.
