Ni Yueshan also spoke up, "Please, Minister Tai, take us over to visit him!"
It's clear from the two of them that they won't give up until they achieve their goal.
Minister Tai sighed and said, "Alright, please follow me!"
Just as the three were about to leave, a servant came hurriedly and said, "Grand Master, Grand Master, the Prince is here!"
Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen looked at each other. They didn't expect Shao Lecheng to follow them. Is he really a ghost?
When Shao Lecheng saw Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen, he pretended to be surprised and said, "You two are here too. What a coincidence. However, I'm here to visit my future concubine. What are you here to see?"
Ni Yueshan looked at him coldly and sneered, "Prince, why do you ask questions when you already know the answer? You're annoying me."
Shao Lecheng chuckled, then said to Minister Tai, "Please lead the way. I want to go see Banxue too!"
Minister Tai was embarrassed. So many outsiders going to the boudoir of an unmarried girl...
Although he was depressed, he had no right to refuse and led the way obediently.
When the three people were brought to the room, they saw that the bed curtains were hanging low, and they could not see clearly what was happening to Tai Banxue lying on the bed.
Minister Tai looked at Elder Tai standing beside him and asked, "What's going on with Banxue?"
"This morning, I went to court with you, Dad, and I didn't know Banxue was sick. It was only after I came back from court that I heard from the servants in the mansion, and then we called a doctor, doctor..."
He glanced hesitantly at Jing Yuchen and the others.
Ni Yueshan frowned. Tai Lao's reaction seemed like he had something to hide and was not sure what to say.
Minister Tai became increasingly uneasy. It seemed that Tai Banxue's illness was quite serious.
He walked forward and wanted to lift the bed curtain to take a look, but Old Tai immediately stopped him: "Dad, just stand there and talk to Banxue. Don't get close. The doctor said it's contagious!"
Minister Tai looked at Elder Tai in astonishment. A contagious disease? This was truly bizarre.
"Grandpa, Banxue can't show up right now. I can only talk to you through the bed curtain. Banxue is afraid of infecting you. Grandpa, don't worry about Banxue. Banxue will definitely get through this!"
Minister Tai frowned, very confused: "What kind of disease is it? Why does it seem so serious and contagious..."
Tai Banxue sighed, "It's because of my frail body that the disease has taken hold. Grandpa, you don't need to worry about Banxue."
After listening to the two of them talking for a few words, Jing Yuchen couldn't help but speak: "Miss Tai, I am the Regent. Today is the day to interrogate the Prime Minister. You were supposed to come forward to testify, but you haven't shown up yet. We heard that you were ill, so we came to visit you."
After hearing Jing Yuchen's voice, the person behind the bed curtain was silent for a long time, and then sighed: "I am extremely weak right now, lying on the couch, without any strength to use. Even talking to me feels exhausting, and I am a little reluctant to speak!"
"I'm afraid I won't be able to testify. Please, Lord Regent, don't force Banxue. Banxue is powerless."
Then she started coughing, and the sound was indeed soft and weak, like a person who was seriously ill. However, it was really strange that a woman contracted an acute and contagious disease overnight.
"Miss Tai, how about we invite a royal physician for you?" Ni Yueshan asked.
Before Tai Banxue could respond, Elder Tai spoke first, "We've already called the imperial physician."
He sighed softly as he spoke, feeling extremely worried about Tai Banxue's illness, yet helpless to do anything about it.
Shao Lecheng sighed beside him, "That's really unfortunate. If the disease had occurred a day later, I could have testified for the Prime Minister. What a pity."
Ni Yueshan rolled his eyes at Shao Lecheng and said some sarcastic remarks.
Jing Yuchen was walking towards Tai Banxue step by step at this time. Tai Lao immediately stopped him and said, "Regent, no, this is an infectious disease!"
But Jing Yuchen seemed not to hear it and continued walking forward.
Tai Lao was a little anxious. Behind the bed curtains, Tai Banxue coughed. Through the curtains, she saw the approaching figure. Her eyes flickered, and she finally took the initiative to speak and said, "I have the plague."
This one sentence made Jing Yuchen stop in his tracks, and Ni Yueshan was surprised.
"Doesn't everyone have a prescription for the plague? Just take some medicine and it will be fine. Why are you in the Tai Mansion taking such precautions?" Ni Yueshan felt strange.
Shao Lecheng reminded him, "You really are so ignorant. There are many types of plague. Everyone knows the prescription for the plague that broke out in the city before."
"But Miss Tai has the plague, and Master Tai is still so nervous. This is enough to prove that this plague is of another kind!"
Tai Lao immediately responded: "Yes, it's another plague, that's why it's so difficult!"
Shao Lecheng continued, "The plague is contagious. It's best to isolate Miss Tai. Otherwise, if another plague spreads, the people in the city will suffer. Your Tai Mansion can't afford it!"
Shao Lecheng's words made Tai Lao sigh, and Tai Shangshu also understood what was going on.
Minister Tai had a worried look on his face. He was very anxious: "How could I get infected with the plague out of nowhere? What should I do if there is no prescription to cure this plague..."
Ni Yueshan looked at Jing Yuchen. It turned out to be a plague. With this plague at work, who would dare to get close to Tai Banxue?
Tai Banxue still has the energy to reply today, but tomorrow, if there is still no effective prescription, she will be afraid and will not even have the energy to talk!
Ni Yueshan looked at Minister Tai and said, "Although this case is being tried by the three courts, it's too late now. Judging from Miss Tai's current condition, we can only have someone write down a statement while she's still conscious!"
