Shen Mingzhu couldn't hold back her surprise and asked, "Does Your Highness have anything else to say?"
The young eunuch shook his head and said, "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 had no chance to compete for her favor. The prince was still hers.
Seeing that her leg was so badly injured, she asked again: "Does Your Highness know that I am injured?"
The two young eunuchs looked at each other and shook their heads: "I don't know."
Shen Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then thought, forget it, I'll just send 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 to then go to bed with him.
After Shen Chuwei and Shen Mingzhu returned to the palace, everyone in the Shen Mansion was in a panic. In their eyes, smallpox was like a deadly plague. Who wouldn't 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 when she saw the servants busying around. Although she was afraid, she was not so afraid when she thought of Shen Chuwei having smallpox. For her daughter's future, what did it matter? Yesterday, Shen Haisheng experienced his son and daughter being bitten by a dog, and today, his only hope, his youngest daughter, also got smallpox. Such ups and downs made him feel weak and he collapsed on the chair.
When Mrs. Shen saw Shen Haisheng slumped in the chair, her face turned even paler with fright. Shen Haisheng was the pillar of the family and he could not fall.
"Master, are you okay?"
Shen Haisheng looked at his wife, and when he realized that his only hope was gone, he became angry and slapped her with his hand.
"Snap"
The slap stunned Mrs. Shen, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Shen Haisheng usually doesn't take care of household affairs. Mrs. Shen takes care of everything. After Shen Chuwei was brought back from the countryside, he didn't pay any attention to her.
Although Shen Haisheng knew that Mrs. Shen treated Shen Chuwei badly, he turned a blind eye and ignored it.
Because he never expected his 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 just a jealous woman! A vicious woman!"
Madam Shen relied on the fact that no one knew about the poisoning, so she asked in a more assertive tone, "Master, what do you mean by that?"
"What do you mean? Don't you know what you have done?" 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. The principle of prosperity and adversity is that everyone prospers and everyone suffers together. Do you understand?"
If Shen Haisheng hadn't been so angry, 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 become the Crown Princess if she wins the favor of His Highness."
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 suitable to poison at this time, 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 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. And since Shen Haisheng already knew about it, she became outspoken.
Shen Haisheng took a deep breath, couldn't help it, stood up and slapped again.
Mrs. Shen was a woman, so weak that she couldn't even tie a chicken. After being slapped twice in a row, 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 speak any more.
At this time, a guard suddenly came to the Shen Mansion.
Wei Chi said, "Minister Shen, I was sent by His Highness. You are not allowed to leak 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 appeared in Shen Haisheng's eyes. His Highness thought so highly of Shen Chuwei, so as long as he could get through it, everything would be fine.
* When the carriage arrived at the palace gate, it stopped and was checked by the guards one by one 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 take a few more glances at her 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 lifted the curtain of the car.

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 it. At this time, the curtain of the carriage was opened from the outside, and the guards took a few glances and 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 looked 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 young eunuch replied, "Your Highness has ordered that no one is allowed to mention that Concubine Shen has contracted smallpox."
Shen Mingzhu was stunned. Did His Highness want Shen Chuwei to go to the palace to find someone to treat her? Only now did she realize 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 be implicated as well.
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 I arrived at the Eastern Palace, I went straight 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 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 a pot of hot water, brewed a cup of tea and brought it over, "My lady, have some tea."
Shen Chuwei leaned against the table and ate a lot of melon seeds on the way back. He was very thirsty, so he took the teacup from Chunxi's hand and drank a few sips to moisten his throat.
At this time, Liu Xi's shrill voice came from outside, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
When Chunxi heard this, she 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."
