Lian Ma saw that they were frightened and quickly said, "If anything happens to Fu Jin, ten of your lives won't be enough to compensate her."
The two young eunuchs looked at each other and said, "Okay, let's go to the front yard and report this matter to the master."
"Why don't you go quickly?" Even the nanny was almost going crazy with anxiety.
After seeing one of the young eunuchs leave, Nanny Lian returned to the room.
Not long after, the palace physician was called over by the young eunuch. The Eighth Master was not at home, so the young eunuch told Nanny Chen about this matter. Nanny Chen asked him to go directly to the palace physician, and she would wait for the master to come back and tell him about this matter later.
When Xiaobai and the others came, they happened to see the court doctor coming to treat the concubine. They went to the roof of the main courtyard, took away a tile, and looked at the scene inside.
The court doctor took a look at the symptoms of the concubine, then took the pulse of the eighth concubine, and then immediately retracted his hand, his eyes full of shock.
Seeing this, Nanny Lian spoke with concern: "House Doctor, how is Fu Jin?"
Judging from the appearance of the court physician, it seems that the concubine has contracted a very difficult to cure disease.
The court doctor stood up, his face somewhat solemn, and a little frightened if you looked closely.
"Madam Lian, the concubine has contracted smallpox." The court doctor was also shocked. He did not expect that the eighth concubine would actually contract smallpox.
The palace doctor knew that someone in the Fourth Master's mansion had smallpox, but why did the Eighth Lady also contract smallpox?
Nanny Lian's eyes widened in surprise. "What did you say, smallpox?"
"That's right, the lady's symptoms are smallpox. Madam Lian, you should have someone report this to the master as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the smallpox spreads, the situation will be difficult to deal with."
"How is it possible? How could it be smallpox? Fu Jin hasn't been anywhere in the past few days. It's impossible for her to have smallpox. Court doctor, are you mistaken? Fu Jin should just have a small rash. It's not smallpox at all."
She kept the thing well and had someone burn it after the matter was done. Fu Jin had never come into contact with it, so how could she have contracted smallpox? It's impossible, absolutely impossible.
When the court physician heard that Nanny Lian didn't believe what he said, he felt a little angry. He had been the court physician for more than ten years, so how could he have made a mistake?
But now was not the time to argue with Nanny Lian about who was right or wrong. He said with a sullen face, "If you don't believe me, you can ask someone to go to the palace and ask the imperial physician to come and take a look."
"But I still say the same thing. This matter must be reported to the master as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the smallpox spreads, everyone in the Eighth Master's Mansion will be infected. This matter can be serious or minor. Madam Lian should quickly send someone to report it."
Lian Ma also knew the seriousness of the matter. She nodded and looked at the court doctor and said, "House doctor, you must save Fu Jin. Fu Jin must not be in any danger."
"Of course I know that, but smallpox is an extremely difficult disease to treat. I can only say that I will do my best. Mammy, please send someone to inform the master of this matter as soon as possible."
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Nanny Lian ran out in a panic to tell someone to inform the Eighth Master about this matter, and then ran back.
The court doctor wrote several prescriptions and asked people to go to the pharmacy to get the medicine and boil it according to the prescriptions, and also to prepare various necessary things.
The secret guard and Xiaobai were on the roof and heard everything that was said inside clearly. When they saw enough, the man and the tiger quietly left and returned to the Fourth Master's residence.
The young eunuch who went out to look for the Eighth Master originally wanted to go to the Imperial Household Department where the Eighth Master was working. However, he met the carriage of the Eighth Master's mansion on the way, and ran forward to stop the carriage.
The Eighth Master lifted the curtain and the young eunuch hurried forward. The Ninth Master was sitting next to the Eighth Master.
The young eunuch didn't care that the Ninth Master was present and directly told the Eighth Master that the Eighth Lady had contracted smallpox.
When the Eighth Master and the Ninth Master heard this, they were shocked.
"What did you say?" Mr. Ba was a little suspicious whether he had heard it wrong.
"My lord, the concubine has contracted smallpox and has fainted due to a high fever." The young eunuch hurriedly told the eighth master what had happened in the mansion.
"Myna~" Jiu Ye looked at his myna.
How could Eighth Sister-in-law suddenly contract smallpox?
"Ninth brother, you go back first. I'll go back and take a look."
"Should we go to the palace and inform the Emperor about this?" After all, this matter is not trivial. Fourth brother's smallpox has not yet subsided, and now eighth brother's mansion has also been hit by smallpox. This matter must be told to the Emperor.
"Then I'll trouble you, my ninth brother, to go to the palace and tell the Emperor. I'll go back to the mansion and check on the situation first."
"Okay~" The Ninth Prince got off the car, and then someone pulled a horse over. The Ninth Prince rode the horse to the palace.
The Eighth Master also quickened his pace and returned to his residence.
Xiaobai and the secret guard also returned to the Fourth Master's residence and told the Fourth Master and Concubine Wen what they had seen in the Eighth Master's residence.
When Concubine Wen heard that the Eighth Concubine had contracted smallpox, she felt relieved.
After the secret guard finished speaking, the Fourth Master asked him to leave.
Xiaobai lay in front of Mianmian and said that Guo Luoluo's face was now covered with red rashes, which scared him when he saw it at first.
"How is it? Do you feel relieved now?" The Fourth Master hugged Wen Mianmian in his arms and asked softly.
"I feel relieved this way." Wen Mianmian looked up at him.
"My master thinks that the wonderful lady Mianmian has a good trick up her sleeve. She will definitely not let him go so easily." He knew Mianmian's temper. The Eighth Lady had done such a vicious thing this time. How could Mianmian just let her get infected with smallpox and be done with it?
"This time I'm just fighting back. The real highlight is coming later. Master, just wait and see. There are many ways to take revenge. You'll find out next."
And she couldn't just kill the person directly. After all, Guo Luoluo was the daughter-in-law of the royal family. If she died suddenly, there would definitely be someone investigating. Wen Mianmian couldn't be so stupid.
If she can survive this bout of smallpox, she will be lucky, but if she doesn't, it will be her own fault.
Of course, if she managed to get through it, the punishment waiting for her was still to come. She would never let it go like this since her child had been harmed.
"Just do it. I will agree to whatever you want to do." What the Fourth Master said was true. The Eighth Master's wife wanted to harm her child, so he would definitely not let her go so easily.
If Mianmian wants to do it herself, then he will clean up the mess for her. In short, no matter what, he is behind her, and she just needs to do what she wants.
At this moment, the Fourth Master had a different state of mind, and this change in state of mind would become a motivation for him in the future.
"Thank you, master." Wen Mianmian hugged the Fourth Master's waist with both hands, resting her head on his chest, feeling unprecedented peace of mind.
