Empress Li was furious, and when she saw the eunuch panicking and mouthing bad things, she immediately said sternly: "How dare you, the emperor and I are sitting here so well, what can happen?"
The eunuch was so frightened that he lay on the ground, his tongue tied: "Huang...Huang Sang..."
The emperor said coldly: "Straighten your tongue and speak."
"Yes." The eunuch raised his head and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty is not well. There is an epidemic in the palace. The maids around Concubine Xian have been infected and died of the epidemic."
"What?"
"Epidemic!"
Emperor Long Yan was shocked.
The concubines below were even more frightened when they heard these two words. All the singing and dancing at the banquet stopped for a while, and the scene became extremely tense.
Even Queen Li was frightened. She turned pale and said, "It's so good. How could the palace be infected with the epidemic?"
The emperor asked nervously: "What about Concubine Xian? How is she doing now?"
The eunuch replied: "Back to the emperor, this time the epidemic is coming fiercely, and the Yuxiang Palace where Concubine Xian lives has been sealed off. Concubine Xian is fine for the time being, and the dragon heir is also fine."
The emperor frowned and said sternly: "Why don't you call the imperial doctor quickly? You must protect Concubine Xian and the fetus in her belly."
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Doctor Jiang has already rushed over."
Such a big thing suddenly happened in the palace. The Qianqiu Banquet can no longer continue. The top priority is to evacuate first and evacuate the crowd to avoid human-to-human transmission.
The emperor immediately gave an order: "The Queen's Qianqiu Banquet ends today, everyone should go back first."
After saying that, the emperor left in a hurry.
Empress Li asked nervously: "Your Majesty, where are you going?"
The emperor said coldly: "I'm going to see Concubine Xian. She is still pregnant. Such a big thing has happened. She must be very scared now."
Hearing this, the concubines were frightened and tried to dissuade them one after another: "Your Majesty, no, Your Majesty, the epidemic is fierce, Your Majesty's dragon body is very important..."
"I have my own sense of discretion, so you don't need to worry."
The emperor flicked his sleeves and robes and strode away from the scene.
The concubines were so anxious that they didn't know what to do.
At this time, Queen Li assumed the posture of managing the harem, looked at everyone and said: "Everyone, please go back to your respective palaces. Stay well after you go back, and don't run around if you have nothing to do."
"yes."
After saying that, Queen Li also left angrily. Today was her Qianqiu Banquet. She didn't expect that such a thing would happen. It was really unlucky.
As soon as the rest of the people heard that the epidemic was coming, they all panicked and started running to their palaces in a hurry.
The guards stayed to evacuate the crowd and were responsible for escorting the royal relatives out of the palace.
Among the chaotic crowd, Chu Yingluo was the only one who looked calm. Epidemics have been a major problem for mankind since ancient times. Epidemics are also called infectious diseases. They can spread quickly from person to person, and there are many ways of infection. , once the infection spreads, many people will die.
The incident happened suddenly. It seems that this epidemic is not simple...
However, there were so many doctors in the palace, and it was nothing for her to do, so it was not her turn to worry about it yet.
Princess Changning on the side pursed her lips and said aggrievedly: "Why is there such a nasty thing as the epidemic? It seems that I can't leave the palace recently, and I can't find delicious food with the Siwang Sister-in-law, wuwuwu... .”
Mo Xianfeng knocked her on the head and said, "What time has it been and you still want to eat? Go back and see the Queen Mother as soon as possible."
When she thought of the Queen Mother, Princess Changning immediately became nervous: "Yes, I am going to Cining Palace to see how the Queen Mother is doing. Sister-in-law Si Wang, you should go back quickly. You must protect yourself until the epidemic is gone in the palace. I’ll go find you.”
Chu Yingluo chuckled and nodded: "Go back quickly, don't worry about me, take care of yourself and the Queen Mother."
As soon as Princess Changning and the Seventh Prince left, Chu Yingluo also returned home.
Su Liuyan originally had something to say to Chu Yingluo, but unfortunately she never had the chance. Moreover, an epidemic broke out in the palace and the situation was tense. She had to hurriedly get on the carriage and rush back to the East Palace with the prince to take refuge.
On the other side, Mo Wenhuan didn't see Chu Yan and couldn't help asking his servant: "Where is Chu Yan?"
The servants shook their heads: "I don't know. The second lady ran away by herself just now and didn't let us follow."
Liu Xianxian cursed angrily: "Mo Wenhuan, are you coming up? If you don't come up, don't go back to your house tonight, just stay here and wait for that foxy girl!"
Mo Wenhuan looked frightened and panicked, and quickly explained: "Madam, you misunderstood. I was not waiting for her. It was her who bumped into the queen at the banquet today. I want to settle the score with her."
Liu Xianxian snorted coldly: "Then stay and settle the score slowly. If you two are infected with the epidemic, you might as well die outside together and become a pair of miserable mandarin ducks."
As soon as he heard about the epidemic, Mo Wenhuan immediately became anxious. The epidemic in the palace was so severe now that he couldn't stay in this place, so he didn't bother to care about Chu Yan anymore and hurriedly got into the carriage.
Besides, maybe Chu Yan has already gone back...
After Chu Yan ran away from the banquet in despair, she felt angry and aggrieved. She ran around in the palace and scolded the servants around her. As she ran, she ended up getting lost in the huge palace. When she found the road, it was pitch black all around, so she simply ran behind a rockery and cried bitterly.
During this period of time, she had suffered too many grievances. She had been ignored in the Third Prince's Mansion. Today, she was even embarrassed in front of everyone in the royal family. From now on, her life would only be difficult. As long as Liu Xianxian is around, she will never recover. Live your life.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
Chu Yan was immersed in grief, but she didn't know that a man was slowly walking towards her.
"The little lady cried so pitifully, it made my heart melt..."
Hearing the frivolous voice, Chu Yan's crying stopped suddenly, and she immediately raised her head and said warily: "Who? Who is talking?"
The next second, a handsome young man walked up to her, bent down, and handed the glazed hairpin she had thrown away to her: "Hey, I'm here to return something."
Chu Yan looked at the glazed hairpin she had thrown away and said angrily, "I don't want it."
The man raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled: "Why not?"
"The Queen said it was terribly ugly..."
Thinking of the queen's words, Chu Yan was so sad that she wanted to cry again.
The man immediately knelt down and curled his lips. There was a bit of softness between his brows and eyes, "I think it's very beautiful, especially when it's on your head. It's so beautiful!"
With that said, the man put the glazed hairpin on Chu Yan's head.
When she heard the person in front of her complimenting her on her beauty, Chu Yan's cheeks immediately turned red. She couldn't help but raise her head and look at the man in front of her. After looking carefully, she realized that the man in front of her was young and handsome, and his appearance was not inferior to that of Mo Wenhuan. , especially his sturdy figure, which looks much stronger than Mo Wenhuan.
