Chapter 74 Very Relief

Shen Mingzhu couldn't hold back her surprise and asked, "Did Your Highness have anything else to say?"

The eunuch shook his head, "Shen Liangyuan, I don't know, I just followed your orders."

Shen Mingzhu didn't care either, as long as His Highness still cared about her.

Shen Chuwei couldn't survive smallpox for long, and she had no chance to compete with her for favor. The prince was still hers.

Seeing that her leg was badly injured, she asked again, "Does Your Highness know that I am injured?"

The two eunuchs looked at each other and shook their heads: "I don't know."

Shen Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, and thought, forget it, I'll just ask someone to tell them when I get back to the palace.

If His Highness knew that she was injured, he would definitely come to Lanyue Palace to see her.

It would be perfect for me to sleep with you then.

After Shen Chuwei and Shen Mingzhu returned to the palace, everyone in the Shen family was in a panic. In their eyes, smallpox was like a deadly plague. Who would not be afraid?

Shen Haisheng ordered: "Destroy all the tableware in the restaurant and replace all the tables with new ones."

After thinking about it, he felt it was unsafe again. "Disinfect the restaurant and use it again after three days."

The servants put on their masks and gloves and started working busily.

Then, Shen Haisheng ordered his servants to lock up the yard where Shen Chuwei had lived, turning it into an abandoned yard.

This was not enough. Shen Hai was afraid that someone had been infected with smallpox, so he locked up all the maids and servants who had been close to Shen Chuwei in the woodshed and released them only after he was sure that they were not infected.

Mrs. Shen was frightened watching the servants busying around. Although she was afraid in her heart, she was not so scared when she thought that Shen Chuwei had contracted smallpox. For her daughter's future, what did all this matter?

Yesterday, Shen Haisheng experienced his son and daughter being bitten by a dog, and today his only hope, his little daughter, also contracted smallpox. Such a series of twists and turns made him mentally exhausted, and he collapsed on a chair.

When Mrs. Shen saw Shen Haisheng sitting paralyzed on the chair, she was so frightened that her face turned even paler. Shen Haisheng was the pillar of the family and he could not fall.

"Master, are you okay?"

Shen Haisheng looked at his wife, and realizing that his only hope was gone, he became angry and slapped her in the face.

"Snap"

The slap stunned Mrs. Shen, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.

Shen Haisheng usually didn't take care of household affairs, all of which were handled by Mrs. Shen. After Shen Chuwei was brought back from the countryside, he didn't pay any attention to her.

Mrs. Shen treated Shen Chuwei badly. Although Shen Haisheng knew it, he turned a blind eye and ignored it.

Because he never expected this daughter to do anything for the Shen family.

Now the only hope of the Shen family is Shen Chuwei, but she was harmed by this jealous woman.

"You are a jealous woman! A vicious woman!"

Mrs. Shen relied on the fact that no one knew about the poisoning, so she asked more firmly, "Master, what do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? Don't you know what you did?" Shen Hai was so angry that he took two breaths and continued, "Even if you don't like Wei'er, you can't have the evil intention of poisoning her. If we prosper together, we prosper together, and if we suffer together, we suffer together. Do you understand?"

If Shen Haisheng hadn't been furious, he wouldn't have said such harsh words to Mrs. Shen.

When Mrs. Shen saw that Shen Haisheng knew about it, she stopped pretending.

"Master, Shen Chuwei is just a country girl. She has nothing. Why should she snatch the favor that should belong to Ah Zhu? Besides, although Ah Zhu has been demoted, she is still a good lady. She still has a long life ahead of her. Maybe she can win the favor of His Highness and become the Crown Princess."

Shen Haisheng said angrily: "You are so short-sighted. If the truth is revealed, the Shen family will be finished too."

Mrs. Shen felt a little guilty and didn't think too much about it at the time. Now thinking back, it was indeed not a suitable time to poison, as it would be easy to trace it back to her.

"Master, it's too late to regret now. Besides, Shen Chuwei is so stupid that she can't make any waves. If she can't survive the smallpox, she will die. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has so many women, why would he care about a woman with smallpox?"

Mrs. Shen had vicious thoughts in her heart, so the words she spoke were naturally vicious. Plus, Shen Haisheng already knew about it, so she spoke without restraint.

Shen Haisheng took a deep breath, couldn't help it, stood up and slapped again.

Mrs. Shen was a woman, so powerless that she was slapped twice in a row, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"How dare you say such nonsense? If this gets out, neither you nor I will have our heads chopped off!"

Mrs. Shen was so frightened that she dared not say a word.

At this time, a guard suddenly came to the Shen Mansion.

Shen Haisheng looked at the newcomer in confusion, "Who are you?"

Wei Chi said, "Minister Shen, I was sent by His Highness. You are not allowed to reveal a single word about Concubine Shen contracting smallpox."

After all, Shen Haisheng had been an official for more than ten years, so he immediately realized what was going on.

"I understand. Your Highness, rest assured that this matter will not be leaked."

"Then I will go back and report." Wei Chi did not stay long and quickly left the Shen Mansion.

A glimmer of hope rose in Shen Haisheng's eyes. His Highness thought so highly of Shen Chuwei, so as long as he could get through this, everything would be fine.

The carriage stopped at the palace gate and was checked one by one by the guards before being allowed to pass.

When checking Shen Chuwei's carriage, they found that she was wearing a face scarf. The guards couldn't help but look at her a few more times before letting her pass.

When it was Shen Mingzhu's carriage's turn, Shen Mingzhu winked at Caihe.

Cai He nodded, and was about to get up and leave when the guards opened the curtain.

Before she could step out of the carriage, she was knocked unconscious by a palm strike from the young eunuch.

Shen Mingzhu was stunned for a moment when she saw this. At this time, the curtain of the car was opened from the outside, and the imperial guards took a few looks at her and then let her pass.

By the time Shen Mingzhu reacted, the curtain had already been lowered, and she missed the opportunity.

She glanced at Cai He who had fainted in the carriage, then glanced at the two young eunuchs in front of her, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

She angrily asked, "What are you doing?"

The eunuch replied, "Your Highness has ordered that no one is allowed to mention that Concubine Shen Liang has contracted smallpox."

Shen Mingzhu was stunned. Does His Highness want Shen Chuwei to go to the palace to find someone to treat her?

She only now realized that His Highness doted on Shen Chuwei to such an extent that he dared to hide the truth.

If it were to be exposed, Your Highness would probably also be implicated.

Shen Mingzhu gritted her teeth and could only pray secretly that Shen Chuwei would not survive the smallpox.

After entering the palace gate, the carriage headed straight to the East Palace.

Fortunately, there were no accidents along the way and I didn't come into contact with anyone.

When we arrived at the East Palace, we went directly to Xiyun Pavilion.

In order to prevent other people from being infected, the carriage was pushed to Xiaoxiang Pavilion and destroyed, and all those who had come into contact with Shen Chuwei were quarantined.

Only Chunxi was left accompanying Shen Chuwei into the house.

As soon as she returned to Xiyun Pavilion, Shen Chuwei felt like she was home. Seeing her own soft couch, she felt so at home.

Chunxi went to boil some hot water, brewed a cup of tea and brought it over, "My lady, have some tea."

Shen Chuwei leaned against the bed and ate a lot of melon seeds on the way back. She was very thirsty, so she took the teacup from Chunxi's hand and drank a few sips to moisten her throat.

At this time, Liu Xi's shrill voice came from outside, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

Chunxi heard it and looked out the window, and saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. She looked at Shen Chuwei in surprise, "My Lady, His Royal Highness is here."
