The prince has contracted smallpox, and many people in the prince's palace have started to have fever. Because they were not discovered and isolated in time, the entire palace is now in danger.
The emperor was horrified.
He immediately ordered the people in the Imperial Medical Bureau to be punished.
The old prince stood aside and watched the emperor raging with rage.
After the emperor calmed down from his rage, he looked at the old prince again and asked, "Old prince, where did you get this information about smallpox? Could it be that someone in Prince Zhan's mansion has also contracted smallpox?"
The old prince bowed and replied, “Your Majesty, my great-granddaughter who I just found knows medical skills. She found that someone in her house had a fever and after diagnosis, it seemed to be smallpox.
Therefore, we sent people to the city's Chinese medicine clinic to inquire about the number of people who had recently come to see a doctor for colds. We found that the number of people was increasing every day, and the city's Chinese medicine clinic's medicinal materials for treating colds were beginning to be in short supply.
Your Majesty, smallpox is spreading rampantly in the capital. This is a serious and urgent matter.
If the situation in Beijing were to be known to others, I'm afraid someone with ulterior motives would make use of it to make a fuss.
Your Majesty, please summon important ministers to the palace to discuss this matter. The city gates must be closed immediately. Except for those who are transporting medicinal materials, no one else can enter and not leave.
The old minister's great-granddaughter is a good doctor, and she learned it from Feng Xuanzi.
Before the old minister entered the palace, she told him to persuade the emperor to close the city, and those who have been infected with smallpox must be isolated and treated in a centralized manner, so as to reduce the spread of the disease. "
The great-granddaughter of the old prince of the Zhan Palace?
Isn’t that Prince Zhan’s daughter?
Where did Gao Yucheng get his daughter?
The whereabouts of the Princess Zhan were unknown at first, and then it was confirmed that she was killed in another place, and it was said that there were two dead bodies. Where did the great-granddaughter mentioned by the old prince come from?
"Old Lord, who is the great-granddaughter you are talking about?"
"Your Majesty, my grandson's wife was living outside. When we found her later, she was gone. At that time, we only knew that the mother and daughter were dead. For so many years, we have always believed that this was the case.
It was not until the appearance of this child that we learned about the adoption of this child, the place of adoption, the year of adoption, and that she had in her hand the jade bracelet of the old minister's granddaughter-in-law, who was buried with the help of Crazy Xuanzi's followers.
The master and disciple had seen the example of the old minister's grandson's wife.
Several sources confirmed that the old minister’s great-granddaughter is still alive, and we have recognized each other.”
The old prince gave a brief explanation.
The emperor heard the name Feng Xuanzi several times before he reacted.
"Old Prince, you said your great-granddaughter is a follower of Crazy Xuanzi?"
"That's right! My great-granddaughter and her brother are both followers of Crazy Xuanzi. One studies medicine, and the other studies fortune-telling."
Hearing this, the emperor stood up from the dragon throne, looking excited, "Old Prince, where is that Crazy Xuanzi now?"
Feng Xuanzi is not only famous in the martial arts world, but also has a great reputation in the court.
What worries people most about him is not his abilities, but his elusiveness. No one knows where he is or what he really looks like.
Some people say that he looks like the mythical Zhong Kui.
Some people say that he has an immortal appearance and is like a god.
Some people say that he is like a beggar, not caring about material things and being free and unrestrained.
Some people say that he is a martial arts expert, well-read, and proficient in both civil and military affairs.
Someone said he...
Anyway, it's spread in all kinds of ways.
However, no one said that he had ever accepted any disciples.
He accepted two at once, and they are a brother and sister.
The emperor had always wanted to find Feng Xuanzi. He wanted Feng Xuanzi to be the head of the Imperial Observatory and have him serve the royal family.
"Feng Xuanzi is currently out of town, and will come to the capital to meet his disciples in a while."
"Good, good, good!" The emperor was much happier, "Old Prince, when Crazy Xuanzi comes to the capital, I want to meet him. Old Prince, let your great-granddaughter, oh no, the little princess in the palace, talk to Crazy Xuanzi.
That’s right!
Has the little princess officially acknowledged her ancestry?"
The old prince bowed, "Your Majesty, this matter was supposed to be done, and I also wanted to ask Your Majesty for help. But now smallpox is rampant in the capital, and my great-granddaughter is devoted to treating patients.
Let’s put it aside for now.
After this matter is over, I will submit another memorial."
The emperor wanted to use the young princess of the Zhan Palace to win over Feng Xuanzi, and immediately said: "The young princess is a kind-hearted doctor, and I am very pleased. The young princess's actions are a role model for the children of the noble family and a model for them to learn from.
There is no need to wait until next time to submit a memorial.
Since you have recognized each other, I will issue an order now."
The old prince said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
The emperor immediately issued an imperial decree, "Old Prince, what is the name of the little princess?"
"Your Majesty, my great-granddaughter's name is Gao Zhi!"
"Good! Gao Zhi, you are indeed Gao Zhi of Prince Zhan's Mansion." The emperor quickly wrote the imperial edict, conferring the title of Princess Yong'an of Prince Zhan's Mansion on Gao Zhi.
The emperor was very curious about Feng Xuanzi, so he wrote an imperial edict and asked the old prince, "Is Feng Xuanzi's other disciple the elder brother of Princess Yong'an? Where is he now? What is his name?"
The old prince said: "Feng Xuanzi's other disciple, who is also the elder brother of my great-granddaughter, is called Gao Miao. It was Gao Miao who brought my great-granddaughter home from the mass grave and raised her."
"!!!" Gao Miao? What a coincidence?
The emperor learned some things about Gao Miao from Fu Hua, that he had been kind since childhood and had adopted a sister when he was young.
I didn’t expect that she was Prince Zhan’s biological daughter.
hehe!
I wonder what Gao Tairan’s expression would be when he found out that his biological son is Feng Xuanzi’s apprentice, and his adopted daughter is Prince Zhan’s daughter?
The emperor suddenly became curious.
The old prince was worried about smallpox. "Your Majesty, should we order a city closure? And isolate and treat the patients?"
The emperor then came back to his senses from his joy at finding Feng Xuanzi's whereabouts and thought of the smallpox incident again.
"Old Prince, I want to order Princess Yong'an to come to the palace to see the Crown Prince."
"Your Majesty." The old prince knelt down hurriedly, "Your Majesty, my great-granddaughter has been in contact with the patient. She said that she cannot go out, otherwise she will be infected.
For the emperor's safety, she could not enter the palace to meet him.
Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"If she can't enter the palace to treat the prince, what should we do with him?" the emperor yelled in panic.
The old prince knelt down and did not move.
The emperor was so anxious that he thought for a while and then said, "Then let her hand over the prescription. Is that feasible?"
Before the old prince could say anything, a palace servant knelt outside and shouted anxiously, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has a high fever and all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital have been imprisoned. There is no one in the palace who can..."
The Queen Mother also had a high fever.
The emperor became even more anxious after listening to this.
But he had just given the order to deal with the Imperial Hospital.
What should I do?
The emperor paced back and forth in front of the dragon throne. After a long time, he strode forward and personally helped the old prince to stand up.
"Old Prince, I will immediately issue an order to seal off the city and summon the important officials of the court to discuss the matter. Old Prince, go out of the palace immediately to ask Princess Yong'an. The Crown Prince and the Queen Mother are both ill. What good solutions does she have?"
The old prince immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will leave the palace immediately."
"Good!" The emperor nodded, "Come here, Eunuch Hai, send someone to notify the Prime Minister, the ministers, Censor Fu, and General Gao to come to the palace to discuss the matter.
Send someone to send the old prince back and convey my order.
After receiving the information about Princess Yong'an, he immediately sent someone back to report."
Eunuch Hai: "Yes, Your Majesty."
