Hearing this, Shen Chuwei leaned on the couch and looked outside, and saw Xiao Jinyan striding in in a plain light blue satin robe, his face calm and stern.
Following behind him was an imperial physician carrying a medicine box, and both of them walked in a hurry.
Chunxi wiped away her tears and said, "Your Highness has brought the imperial physician. The young lady will be fine."
Shen Chuwei looked at Chunxi who was crying with joy. Look how scared this child is. How many times has she cried? Xiao Jinyan was about to step into the inner room when he was stopped by Liu Xi outside the door. "Your Highness, you can't go in."
Imperial Physician Wen also advised: "Your Highness, smallpox is highly contagious. You must not enter before a diagnosis is made, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."
Xiao Jinyan looked at the people who were blocking his way. He looked inside for a few times, but the door was closed and he could not see anything. He withdrew his gaze and ordered, "Then go and check on her first."
"I will go in and take a look." Imperial Physician Wen took out a handkerchief from his sleeve pocket and put it on, then walked in carrying the medicine box.
Shen Chuwei was still lying on the couch when she saw the imperial physician coming. She found that the imperial physician was unfamiliar to her, but he looked quite handsome.
Imperial Physician Wen came in and bowed, "Dear Lady Shen, let me take a look at the symptoms on your face."
"Yeah." Shen Chuwei lifted the veil on her cheeks, revealing the red dots on her cheeks.
Imperial Doctor Wen took a few glances and found that the red spots did look like smallpox. To confirm the diagnosis, he said in a gentle voice, "I will take Lady Shen's pulse."
"Okay." Shen Chuwei stretched out her hand and pulled up her sleeves to reveal her slender white wrists.
At this time, outside, Xiao Jinyan was pacing back and forth, looking up at the door of the inner room from time to time, not knowing what was going on.
Liu Xi comforted him, "Your Highness, Shen Liangdi is a lucky person, nothing will happen to her."
Xiao Jinyan pursed his lips tightly, raised his eyes to look at the little rabbit, and asked coldly: "What is going on?"
"Your Highness, Shen Liang Di was fine last night, but she became like this this morning." The little rabbit thought of what Shen Chuwei said this morning, and said, "I heard that Madam Shen sent two plates of cakes to Shen Liang Di last night."
Xiao Jinyan asked: "Did anyone else eat that plate of cakes? But she has such symptoms?"
The little rabbit replied: "I heard that Chunxi ate one piece and had no symptoms, and the rest was eaten by Shen Liangdi."
It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything. As soon as he said that, Xiao Jinyan's face darkened. He was so angry that he wanted to give her a good lecture in person. She only knew how to eat! She never learned her lesson! Imperial Doctor Wen opened the door and walked out.
Xiao Jinyan took two steps forward and asked, "How is she now?"
Imperial Physician Wen said, "Your Highness, Concubine Shen's symptoms are indeed very similar to smallpox, and I am not sure."
Xiao Jinyan was furious when he heard this. "Aren't you the best doctor in the Imperial Hospital? How come you can't even diagnose whether it's smallpox?"
Imperial Physician Wen wiped a cold sweat, "Your Highness, Concubine Shen's illness is indeed smallpox, but her pulse is a little different, so I dare not make a definitive statement."
Xiao Jinyan is not an imperial physician, so naturally he doesn't know as much as Imperial Physician Wen. Hearing Imperial Physician Wen say this, it can only mean that Shen Chuwei's illness is indeed strange.
"How can it be treated?"
"Your Highness, for now we can only treat it the same way we treat smallpox and see if it works."
In fact, Imperial Physician Wen was also puzzled. It looked very much like smallpox, but the pulse was not that weak, and he could not diagnose any other disease.
Xiao Jinyan asked, "What if it doesn't work?"
"The only way is to try another method, but treatment takes time."
Everyone knows that smallpox is difficult to cure, has a very low survival rate, and is highly contagious, making people extremely afraid of getting it.
Xiao Jinyan naturally knew about this, so he was so cautious in bringing Shen Chuwei into the palace, not letting outsiders know about this and avoiding causing unnecessary trouble and disaster.
Although it was risky, he still did it.
How could Shen Chuwei, a foodie who never fights for food, get this disease? Shen Chuwei lay on the couch for a while, but couldn't lie still any longer, so she got up from the couch and walked to the door, where she heard the conversation between the two.
She raised her eyes to look at Xiao Jinyan and found that his face looked a little unhappy: "Your Highness."
"I won't let anything happen to you, don't worry."
Shen Chuwei knew that the problematic pastry would not kill anyone, but in order to make the Shen family give up the idea of her and Shen Mingzhu "supporting each other" and letting her compete for favor, she ate all the pastries, which led to her current symptoms.
Another reason is that if there are leftovers, Chunxi will definitely eat them when he sees them.
If these red dots grew on Chunxi's face, he would probably be scared to death...
Another reason was that if Xiao Jinyan didn't want her to enter the palace, she could live a carefree life outside the palace.
But now it seems that Xiao Jinyan has worked so hard on this matter that he can't bear to lie to him.
"Your Highness, I am actually fine."
Anyone who knew he had smallpox would probably be paralyzed by fear.
But Shen Chuwei comforted him instead, which moved Xiao Jinyan a little.

"You'll be fine, trust me."
After Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, he looked at Doctor Wen and ordered, "Use the best medicine to treat her, don't worry."
Imperial Physician Wen lowered his brows and nodded, "I understand."
Xiao Jinyan looked at Shen Chuwei again and said in a gentle voice, "You should take good care of yourself and don't worry about other things."
Xiao Jinyan is the crown prince and is busy with official duties every day, so he cannot stay in Xiyun Pavilion all the time.
After comforting Shen Chuwei, he left Xiyun Pavilion.
Although Chunxi was also afraid and nervous, after hearing His Highness' words, she felt hopeful and was no longer afraid.
"Your Highness is so kind to me, and he comforts me, saying that I will be safe and sound."
Shen Chuwei looked at Xiao Jinyan's back as he left and sighed. She just wanted to say that she didn't have smallpox.
The red spots on the face are not caused by smallpox, but a disease similar to smallpox. They will disappear automatically after some time.
Shen Chuwei lay back on the couch and touched her empty stomach, "Chunxi, I want to eat crystal dumplings."
Chunxi usually dotes on Shen Chuwei, and now that she is sick, he dotes on her even more.
"I will go make crystal dumplings for you right now."
Shen Chuwei thought of the vegetarian dumplings she had eaten a few days ago, "I want meat filling, not vegetarian, otherwise the soul of the crystal dumplings will be lost."
"Don't worry, my lady. I guarantee that these crystal dumplings are made with pure meat filling." Chunxi got out of bed swiftly and went to the small kitchen.
When Tao Chenghui heard that Shen Chuwei had returned from visiting relatives, he brought some delicious food to visit. As soon as he reached the door, he was stopped by the little rabbit.
"Shen Liang Di's condition has worsened. His Highness has ordered that the ladies are not allowed to disturb Shen Liang Di's rest these days."
