After Ding Yi waited for Qin Wuxiao to return to the camp, he asked Qin Wuxiao if he wanted to take advantage of the nightfall to quietly take out the letter written to Prince Rong.

After experiencing Emperor Helian Yingche's reprimand, even if Qin Wuxian had the heart, he did not dare to act rashly, so he had to postpone the plan and stay in the camp to investigate the rumors first, and wait for the follow-up opportunity to act.

In the following days, the imperial doctor and the doctors in the camp will check everyone's physical condition one by one every day, and if anyone is found to have symptoms such as fever and chills, they will immediately isolate and observe them to avoid infecting others.

On the other hand, Gongliang took care of Yu Lingjun day and night in the camp where Yu Lingjun lived, and did a good job of disinfection, cleaning and prevention in a timely manner according to the instructions of the imperial doctor every day.

Everything in the camp was carried out in an orderly manner under the arrangement of Helian Yingche and the deacons Xu Yan and Fu Yin, and there were no mistakes for the time being.

Until one day three days later, in the process of conducting a routine physical examination for everyone in the camp, the imperial doctor found Qin Wuxian, who had fever symptoms and was suspected of being infected with smallpox. For safety reasons, the guards in the camp had to isolate Qin Wuxian, who had not subsided from fever, to avoid contact with others.

Qin Wuxian, who learned that his symptoms might have been infected with smallpox, was in a thunderbolt for a while, and all thoughts were lost. What Qin Wuxian had been worried about all along, it still happened to him. Qin Wuxian didn't understand that he usually didn't have much contact with Yu Lingjun, and after Yu Lingjun became ill, the two had never met, how could he be so unlucky and infected with smallpox. Qin Wuxian was puzzled. The fear of death made Qin Wuxiao restless.

On the contrary, Ding Dingyi, who doesn't talk much, often comforts Qin Wuxian: Don't scare yourself before the imperial doctor makes a conclusion.

With Ding Yi's company by his side, Qin Wuxiao felt that he would not be too lonely. During the days of being quarantined and observed, Qin Wuxian thought a lot, and also wrote a suicide note and handed it over to Ding Yi for safekeeping, saying that once something happened to him, he didn't get through, so he asked Ding Ding Yi to take the suicide note left for his parents and his ashes to return to Prince Rong's mansion and reunite with his father and mother.

After three days of observation and taking medicine, Qin Wuxian's chills completely disappeared, and his body temperature dropped back to normal temperature. It wasn't until the imperial doctor confirmed that Qin Wuxian was not infected with smallpox, and the isolation was lifted, that Qin Wuxiao really felt that it was good to be alive!

It was also from that time that Qin Wuxian, who had experienced great sorrow and joy and had a sense of life and death, really grew up, not afraid of life and death, but with awe, grateful for the life that was still alive. As a result, he completely gave up the idea of escaping back to Prince Rong's mansion.

Helian Yingche stayed in the Yurong guard camp for many days and did not return, which attracted the attention of the Empress Dowager He Lanyan. After He Lanyan reported through layers of eyeliner, she learned the shocking news that someone in the Yurong Guard Camp was infected with smallpox.

The Queen Mother He Lanyan is worried about Helian Yingche's safety, after all, the heirless Helan Yan wants to sit firmly on the throne of the Queen Mother, and she also needs Helian Yingche's trump card. In terms of political interests, Helan Yan and Helian Yingche are like two grasshoppers tied to a rope, they can't run away from you, and they can't escape from me.

Helan Yan must not watch Helian Yingche stay in the Imperial Guard Camp, which is in danger of contracting smallpox at any time. Besides, Princess Helian Fuling of Dayan was still in the camp, so she had to give an order and order someone to bring the emperor and princess back to the palace.

He Lanyan arranged for Ning Qi, the general of the expedition to the north, to lead troops to garrison the Yurong guard camp and persuade the emperor and Princess Fuling to come back.

As for the other people in the camp, Helan Yan ordered that if smallpox had already spread in the camp, then Ning Qi would be asked to directly block the Yurong Guard Camp and let them fend for themselves in the camp.

Iron Lady He Lanyan has never been a soft-hearted person, such a ruthless and decisive method, in Helan Yan's opinion, there is no way, because compared with the more than 100 people in the sacrifice camp, it is the most urgent and correct choice to protect the majority of the people of Dayan and prevent smallpox from raging on a large scale.

In Luanfeng Palace, the Great Yan Queen Helan Diemeng, who had been recuperating from the fetus, also keenly felt the abnormality in the palace. In the past, Emperor Helian Yingche would always come to visit Luanfeng Palace every day, even if he went out of the palace to do business, Helian Yingche would inform him in advance how long he would go, so that Helan Diemeng could rest assured. But this time, Helian Yingche and Helan Diemeng parted for seven days, which was far from the three-day return to the palace promised by Helian Yingche.

Helan Diemeng had a hunch that Helian Ying's trip must have been delayed by something important or urgent outside the palace. But what would be the temporary matter that could stumble Helian Yingche and make him have to deal with it himself? Helan Diemeng, who had mood fluctuations from time to time because of pregnancy, couldn't help but think about it.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother He Lanyan saw the abnormality of Helan Diemeng's worries in time, and was afraid that Helan Diemeng would be worried, so she came forward to make up a cover for Helian Yingche to temporarily confuse the past.

But paper can't contain the fire after all, and in order to completely dispel Helan Diemeng's suspicions, it is necessary to let Emperor Helian Yingche return to the palace as soon as possible.

Before Ning Qi left, the Empress Dowager He Lanyan instructed Ning Qi again that if Emperor Helian Yingche insisted on refusing to return to the palace, then let Ning Qi lie that the queen was ill. Helan Yan expected that with the persuasion of the child in the queen's womb, Helian Yingche would definitely let go of everything in the imperial guard camp and rush back to the palace.

However, Queen Mother He Lanyan's idea was still too confident. On the day that Ning Qi, the general of the expedition to the Northern Expedition, was ordered to go to the Yurong Guard Camp to meet the Emperor Helian Yingche in person, and the Empress Dowager had learned that someone in the Yurong Guard Camp had smallpox, and complained to Helian Yingche. and tried his best to persuade Helian Yingche to return to the palace. Helian Yingche immediately refused.

For the sake of the emperor's safety, Ning Qi had no choice but to follow the instructions of the queen mother He Lanyan, lied that the queen was ill, and hoped that Helian Yingche would return to the palace to visit.

But Ning Qi's dodging eyes made Helian Yingche see at a glance that what he said was false.

"Please go back and tell the Queen Mother that if the smallpox in the Yurong Guard Camp is not removed for a day, I will not return to the palace for a day." Helian Yingche once again made his attitude clear.

"Even if the emperor doesn't think about the dragon body, doesn't the emperor insist on staying regardless of the feelings of the queen mother and the queen mother who are worried about the emperor day and night?" Ning Qi knew that his persuasion was useless in front of Helian Yingche, who had already made up his mind, but his duty was to make another effort.

And Ning Qi's hard persuasion was only answered more resolutely by Helian Yingche: "Now that I am in the Imperial Guard Camp, there are not only me, but also more than a hundred subjects of Great Yan, how can I abandon their lives and deaths!" Therefore, you don't have to persuade me anymore, I have already made up my mind to stay, and I will not leave the camp until smallpox is defeated. As for the queen and the queen mother, when everything in the camp is settled, I will go back and explain in person. ”

Ning Qi was about to say something, but saw Helian Yingche raise his hand to stop him. Ning Qi had no choice but to swallow his words back.

In the face of Helian Yingche's insistence, Ning Qi, the general of Zhengbei, had no choice but to send someone back to the palace to report to the Empress Dowager Helan Yan, and he himself commanded troops to garrison the Yurong guard camp, and when necessary, to protect the safety of the emperor and everyone in the camp.
